Re: NBA 2K19 Play Now Online Thread

Then when my opponent plays off ball defense, the ai is lockin me up like a ****in brick wall. when i play off ball defense to counter that bs, my ai gettin blown by every time or reaching in for a stupid foul. Its like they really invest their time into making a program that identifies the better and worse player to make it a close game instead of fixing this game and making it more competitive.

Re: NBA 2K19 Play Now Online Thread

The most frequent problem of them all is the people who ****in run around with one player, pass the ball successfully to a player who is not open at all, and make a layup. and when i make i pass to someone open in the paint, a help defender who has no business in stealing the ball flies over and intercepts it. Where is the logic in that? Come on man this **** is upside down

I really think you got lag dude, sounds exactly like my experience and I know the difference because I've had maybe 10% of my games not lag. Off ball D doesn't work for lag because the game thinks your reaction times are to slow. Reach ins by the AI are absurd 2 fouls from the same player within a minute into the game wtf.

I can't tell you how many times I knew they were going to pass to the man I'm guarding but I can't get there in time, in fact I'm not even close sometimes it's so ridiculous. They just don't close out against shooters sometimes even though I'm pushing the stick towards the shooter.

So here I am playing the most frustrating games because these dudes can't score against off ball unless they manage to get it to my man and I can't score because of lag. 20-16 yeh that's the score at half time lol

Ready to give up on this lag BS. I'm going to try another ISP see how it goes....

Does anyone else playing on Xbox have to connect online every time they close the game or turn off the console? Every time I play the game it says I'm not connected and I manually have to to connect.

There's some fishy **** going on. Why does it feel like I'm playing the ai. I stop seeing the players name on the floor then then the team starts playing way different, almost perfectly making everything.

Like someone else said, just pick the Warriors and shoot with KD or Klay. Meanwhile I can't make ****. The game just told me all my shots are late.

I really hate losing to someone that you know that you're better than, but they beat you on pure luck. Good defense that rewards the offense. Centers getting their own rebound immediately after they miss. Slow animations leading to blocks although you created the appropriate space. I'm missing open 3's while my opponent is knocking down contested 3's.

I definitely feel you. I've been feeling it all weekend. It's mostly the sluggishness that drives me crazy. I'ts like my controller is in mud. All of my passes are a second behind and my players are slow to react even when I see things coming.

It's also driving me crazy the way P&R defense works sometimes where I'm sprinting through the screen and my PG is sprinting into the defenders chest but going nowhere. It's the opposite of how you see players warping to the ball on certain passes, I should be allowed to go through the screen but because I didn't trigger the right animation I'm stuck doing the running man and my opponent scores. All of the "little" things are really starting to get to me.

Sounds like we all had lag the past few days, how come they can't get it right every year.

I read 2K uses a peer to peer system instead of a central server like most modern games do. So the speed always depends on your opponent and the distance and network between us, but I think it's even worse than that seeing that we are all having issues.

I had 1 game out 20 or so that 'only' lagged a little. I won so easily and the dude quit in the first.

It's kind of like training with weights on your legs or arms for dribbling or running on sand. Once you play the real thing your skills are enhanced 10x...that's if you ever get a game without lag.

Not just dubs, all teams. I'm convinced if you have lag and the other dude doesn't then somehow they will make shots more easily. That maybe partially due do the fact the shooters are more open than you realize as you are behind the real action but I also think they get a shooting boost regardless.

Unless shooting is really that easy this year as some guys will tell you...but we wouldn't know with lag.

Been saying that for years! 2K is on peer to peer they don’t have dedicated servers.

In theory that should actually be a good thing when matched up with people located close to you but we don't know where they are located or how the match making works....they like to hide all that for obvious reasons.

Re: NBA 2K19 Play Now Online Thread

Last game I played last night (like 1:00am) was against a cheesy celtics player who ended getting 6 steals with Kyrie.

Every time i inbounded the ball he'd turbo from the other side of the court straight at me swiping and get a steal. Whenever he got close my controller got less responsive my movements slowed.

Yes I know how to protect the ball blah, blah, blah, but I thought they toned this stuff down, apparently not.

I hate that I can't play frustration free. Things like missing easy layups while my opponent recklessly drives and makes everything drive me nuts. It's like my defense isn't really where they are. Players not jumping for rebounds or going to for loose balls or just not getting any 50/50 balls.

God forbid you be up when the forced swing starts happening, because they will happen. Had the game blatantly force overtime just for me to win at the buzzer. That's happened twice in my last 10 or 15 games.

Couple games ago against a Pacers user, I'm killing this guy all game, until the magic switch is flipped then I can't make any and my defense is suddenly slow. Thaddeus Young turns into KD. I just had to laugh at the BS.
