    That trophy was simple but big

    And guards wonder why Bigs get pissed and stop trying in most games.

    We deserve better

    Posted: 24 Dec 2020 02:35 PM PST

    Seeing the outrage from the cyberpunk community demanding devs fix broken bugs, and the company releasing multiple patches in two days as well as an apology. Makes me wonder why 2k doesn't give its community the same and fix server lag or anything else really. We been asking for years!

    Merry Christmas to those who are finally getting next gen. It's very easy to mess up a build and waste VC this year. Here's 11 things to know before finalizing your big man build.

    Posted: 24 Dec 2020 07:02 PM PST

    I don't feel like debating with anyone today, so this list will be strictly factual with no opinions (outside of #7). Most of this will be common knowledge to people who've been playing next gen. It's just meant as a quick summary for new players since this builder is so different from anything before.

    11 Centers CAN get HOF Quick First Step

    Threw this one on the list because there's a common misconception that centers cannot get hof quick first step. This is because it unlocks for centers at 73 speed with ball, which is not attainable before 96 overall. Centers can also get clamps but it won't show in the builder as your perimeter defense cannot get to 80 on a center before 96 overall.

    10 Shorter builds are faster, even with the same speed rating.

    Speed is not just determined by your speed rating, but by your height as well. Taller players are slower than shorter players (without the ball) even with the same speed rating. For example, I have a 6'9 center that is faster than my 6'10 center despite them both having a 77 speed rating. Here's a great video from u/nba2ktutes on the subject (highly recommend watching tutes videos before making your build just to give a better idea of what alot of attributes do)

    9 Your takeover selection is extremely important

    Your primary AND secodnary takeover selection affects your attributes throughout the game even if you never activate it. I go into more detail here https://www.reddit.com/r/NBA2k/comments/k4nb7e/i_unlocked_mamba_mentality_and_tested_how_the/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf

    8 Centers generally get more badges than pfs

    Pfs are extremely common in next gen since they typically get more badges than guards and sfs. But they usually don't get more badges than centers. It depends on how you're planning on making your build, but if you're going 6'9 or taller, it's a good idea to make the build at both positions to see the badge difference.

    7 Playmaking attributes are very important

    This one is just my opinion, but I feel like most would agree. I never used to add much if any playmaking to my bigs, but 25 pass accuracy is absolutely awful this year. It feels like throwing a volleyball and your teammates fumble even simple passes. Having enough pass accuracy to unlock bullet passers is essential this year. 25 speed with ball also makes contact dunks basically impossible. You can make builds that are atleast decent in all 4 categories this year, so it's typically not worth it to skip out on one.

    6 Certain attributes are much more expensive than others.

    Certain attributes like Close Shot, Free Throw, and Pass Accuracy are more expensive to upgrade than others. Sometimes by alot. You can sometimes gain 10-15 points in a category by dropping one of the expensive ones by 1 or 2 points. Before finalizing a build, play with the attributes a bit to see exactly what each category is costing you.

    5 Centers can't get Deep Threes Badge

    Deep Threes is basically Range extender this year except it doesn't work for twos. It is one of the most important shooting badges in the game. Something to keep in mind if you're deciding between Center and PF.

    4 6'9 is the cutoff height to unlock all jumpshots

    At 6'10 your jumpshot selection is cut to only the bigman jumpshots. Most of the best and fastest jumpshots are not available once you cross the 6'10 threshold. There are still some good jumpers available, but they aren't as fast as the fastest 6'9 jumpers.

    3 Animation requirements are different from current gen, and are no longer locked to position.

    Previously pfs could get certain animations and dunk packages that centers couldn't. That's no longer the case in next gen. If your center meets the requirements it can get the animation. I have a center with James Harden dribble style. The requirements for contact dunk packages have changed as well. Make sure to check the animation store to see if your build can get the animations you want before dumping VC into your build.

    2 Block determines your shot contest rating this year. Not perimeter or interior defense.

    Interior defense is by far the most expensive attribute in the game, but it's just for post defense and reducing the frequency of contact dunks this year. Considering how expensive it is, how high to put your interior is a huge decision. Maxing interior can cost your build 10-20 badge points in certain situations and it doesn't even impact your interior shot contest. Perimeter defense is your lateral quickness rating.

    1 Badge selection is determined by your attributes

    Pay close attention to your badge selection in the builder before putting VC into you build. I see posts in this sub daily about "Why can't I updrage this badge" or something similar. So if you're making a post scorer for example, you may not think you need driving layup, but if you don't upgrade it, you miss out on fearless finisher. I made a "lockdown" with 28 defensive badges but the block rating was only 85 so I don't get hof intimidator. u/nba2klab has the badge unlock info on their site. https://www.nba2klab.com/ng/badge-unlocks

    Got Really Frustrated Starting New Build

    Posted: 24 Dec 2020 08:24 PM PST

    Apologies for the rant. Just got extremely frustrated starting a different build trying to unwind during the holiday season. Absolutely frustrated with the gameplay (not touching the ball for 7 possessions even with 7 excessive calls for a pass) getting whooped in the high school portion, and just feeling like the system is designed to make you pay. However:

    It is just a game and I should be viewing it as such. I hope you all have an awesome holiday season and I hope to catch a game in the Neighborhood with you soon. Have a great evening 2K Community!

    Such a slept on build. And I average a dub dub with randoms

    How isn't my 99 overall, 4x mvp/fmvp not worth a max?

    Posted: 24 Dec 2020 10:34 PM PST

    Just finished my 4-year contract with the Cavs, and they didn't want to sign me a max. Then I went after Pelicans, Lakers, Heat, Raptors, and got the same response from them.

    Some quick stats on my last season: 39.4 ppg/5.3 rpg/14.5 apg, #1 blocks and steals

    I know this is very minuscule, but I have a issue with wearing black socks in "the rec"! It's some what irritating, whether I'm home or away my sock color doesn't change from black. Lol and I really don't know what to do about it.

    PSA about flopping

    Posted: 24 Dec 2020 06:57 PM PST

    If you're gonna flop whenever someone on your team misses or gives up a bucket instead of getting back on defense, don't play the game. I try not to take the game serious and I really don't care about winning, especially when I'm playing with randoms , but it takes the enjoyment out of the game if you're gonna do that. Either play like a normal person, or save your 60 or 70 dollars and buy v bucks for fortnite or whatever y'all play other than 2k
