Any word on Fast Breaks in 2K24?

It's been three years since transition offense was an actual thing in NBA2K. I know you'll never be able to stop a human player from leaving the defensive end of the court to wait under the other hoop, but making an entire facet of the game unplayable is a step too far.


Entire teams in NBA history have been built on transition offense. For caring about the authenticity of the eras, how is it that the Lakers, Mavericks, Magic, and Suns can't have their high speed offense?


So is there any word or chance that fast breaks will be a thing again, or am I just skipping this game?

We're a month out from release, and there's no mechanics or gameplay stuff released? That's a tad unusual for 2K isn't it?

Nope.

2K is notorious for waiting until the last minute to release details about its games. Seems like they have been doing this for well over a decade to build last-second hype.

It's something worth looking out for once information comes down the pipe. I'm not holding my breath though. It seems like the 2K engine struggles with finding an acceptable happy-medium when it comes to this sort of stuff. Seems like it's either it's too easy to spam fast breaks all game or defenders are coded to hit you with that magical catch-up logic.

But to the point, yeah. It'd be nice to be able to access some semblance of free flow in the open floor because it's pretty much nonexistent as it stands.

I've always scratched my head how pre-orders are still there to be had in the meantime though haha....

Hopefully they managed to find some time/resources to allocate towards the transition game though. Always interested in progress where it's needed in the NBA aspect of the game.

if we have fastbreaks, CPU timeouts, sped up/ smoother deadball plays and situations and somehow make passing (and more importantly, good passers stand out) i'll be over the moon.
