The Worst Random Rec Game You'll Ever See. (Rant)

[@soulsayso1243]

The best way to enjoy random rec as a good player is to be drunk and high, I just start laughing when they chuck up bad shots because they are actually that mentally slow its sad😭

[@waff6ix]

Man don’t waste your time anymore , play another game or even spend that time go out , chill with your boys or something. Not worth the stress

[@charlies7281]

2k players are the worst people to play with they would leave the game every time if they are losing. It can be by 10 points or the team OVR isn't high or they would just leave for no reason and the sad part is that the AI would play better than they did.

[@InfamousText]

The AIs are insanely good anyway lmao so I take it as a W

[@MrDivljakse]

lmao yea, the game in rec event that I had the highest chance of winning and the most fun was when 3 dudes were instantly AI players.

As a black man lets call a spade a spade there's too many goofy emotional kneegrows that either think they're Jordan or just happened to be on their period like a woman smh i can't tell you how many times some idiot got on the mic as soon as the game started and tells everyone they're going to do dumb stuff its crazy.

random rec will never be good. regular people just aren't good at basketball and 2k basketball is so hyper specific that to work consistently it would force people to go to 2kUniversity classes for 12 hours a week.

lmfao

You can thank people crying about SBMM, now you can’t back out of any lobbies pre game and if you have a new build you’re screwed because it’s wild below gold

[@MoneyBoyFlacko]

I’m so glad I’m not the only one going through this , this why i make gAmer friends, this exact reason, only way to dodge this

[@jstar0737]

They’re either kids, mentally challenged individuals or trolls. I had the same problem in 24 and still having the same problem in 25 but worse. I’m playin point guard on my 5’ 9 build and I’m not a great scoring point guard but I’m great at getting people the ball when their are wide open. I’m playing with a small forward who’s actually a shooting guard and we won the first game together. Everything is cool but the power forward leave and we have an AI. I know you can see where’s this is going. I’m literally giving the ball up 75 percent of the time and getting a lot of assists but he not satisfied. He said I can’t score off of passes he needs to create his own shot. He goes on to turnover the ball multiple times and then blames me for being 5’9 for why we are losing.

[@PIuggo]

Because he isn’t comp, he can’t hit back to back shots like a comp lock

[@InfamousText]

lmao randoms are insane on here. and im praying the comment above this is bait lmaoo

[@RyanIsTheDawg]

Last good game was 21 in MY opinion. The game was so good back then, we knew sharpshooters couldn’t drive, paint beasts couldn’t shoot, playmaking shot creators didn’t have defense. Ever since then IVE BEEN VERSING FUCKING DEMI GOD BUILDS. 2K NEEDS TO BRING BALANCE BACK

[@wkmare]

right i remember this bc 2k20 was so unbalanced with every build being able to shoot so 2k21 was more balanced

[@ahmazing4769]

Wasn’t 21 the same game where everyone made 6’9 power forwards because they could do everything? I guess when everyone plays the exact same way, that’s your balance right there

[@wkmare]

@@ahmazing4769 i played current gen that year bc next gen was so ass so maybe on next gen but def not on current gen

21 next gen was arguably the worst 2k of all time so **HARD** disagree there. If youre talking about current gen i can see that pov because I somewhat enjoyed that

Mf who play 2k every day be the worst players ever. They could literally spend hours on a game and still be mid. It’s honestly pathetic. Like go outside. How you spend 100 hours on a video game and still not know how to play defense lmao. It’s not only weird. It’s just lame af. Those be the guys who call you lame in irl. But in reality they spend money and hella time on a game they not even good at 🤣. Yeah ok. If you need a screen to be good in 2k you are not good! Passing the ball does just as much as a screen does. Mf be playing team games and not even being a team player that is what lame really looks like.

The mechanics of this game are terrible. It doesn't matter if it's 2k23\24\25 or 26 which hasn't come out yet.. The engine for all the animations in this game is just terrible The problem is that there is no alternative to another basketball game on the market. I find myself wanting to play a basketball video game and then after 2-3 games quit because the game is just awful
