Any word on Fast Breaks in 2K24?

I get a weird jog or full on slow down animation about 80% of the time after a speed burst or use of turbo.


It's maddening.


That said - I'm also getting some crazy fast speed bursts coming off a screen in the half court. I used Ja last night, had a double drag above the 3 point line and around halfway through I tapped turbo and ended up going as fast as I've ever seen in a 2K game, and my game speed is lowered to 45 with speed adjustments.

I wonder if the 2k developers are watching this DEN-LAL game so they can see how common fast breaks are run in the NBA and that players don’t get magically halted in the middle of their running.

I don't play the CPU like that. But I use it a lot with fast break type of PG. It's not double tap. It's tap once. You can even do it in the half court.

Roster makers should raise the crash tendencies on a bunch of players. Creates lots of 5 v 4s.

Fast breaks been suffering since next Gen started I hope we don't have to wait for PS6 for this to be fixed

Fast breaks have been realllll rough for me. I can technically score in transition at times but rarely does it feel like I'm running a real life fast break. I just don't see enough lanes or options when I get into the open floor. Defenders are almost always back, engaged, and locked in.

In addition, ballhandlers have almost no downhill advantage in the open floor in 2K right now. The game just doesn't seem to have the ability account for implementing any semblance of blow-by without it becoming overpowered. But the trade-off is clunkiness and a lack of open floor freedom.

They were pretty awesome when the game first released for a while. There was even a cut scene cam. It was really fun to have actual NBA fast breaks. I'm not sure why they were removed but we at least know they exist. Hopefully they will be reintroduced in the future.

Fast breaks are HEAVILY player dependent.
In my Kobe era Wizards Dwight Howard is a fast break monster. He usually gets 6 fast break points on his own just because he is so fast. When I sub him out and have Aldridge and Birdman as my bigs, we don't get too many fast breaks unless Hughes gets a backcourt swipe.

I have noticed one downside to the new "tap to get a dribble ahead burst" and that is that 2k has made it almost mandatory for the fast break. If you get the ball and immediately do regular turbo you get slowed down/don't get going as fast which allows the defense to kill the break.
