Re: MyNBA2K16 Dev Diary 1

I have done 25 sec per game, it is possible. Sustainable? I have no idea what people do to sustain playing RC games.

What other video? I haven't seen that, please send in a Feedback if you suspect cheating with links, video, or any other evidence and we will investigate. We have no problem banning cheaters if we have evidence of it.

.............You're trying to troll me right?

In my original post, there were TWO LINKS.

Exhibit A which I clearly stated is scripting. https://vid.me/mMFk

Exhibit B where speed hacking was suspected.

You only chose to comment on one link.

Re: MyNBA2K16 Dev Diary 1

You seem to believe a speed hack is being used in the video and try to use it as evidence that Cat Daddy doesn't care. Let me correct you on these points.

In the video, Syd completes 3 games in ~25 sec per game. This is completely possible to do without a speed hack. I have done it myself on my iPhone 6. It simply takes massive tapping, a disregard for the card played, not playing a support, and not having card abilities fire off (like in the video). The device played on makes a difference since better hardware does load things much faster. I could not pull off 25 sec games on my iPad 2 for instance.

As for speed hacking, we have had measures in the game to prevent speed hacks for months. Although it is always a constant battle with hackers to prevent their latest method of cheating, speed hacking is not one of those areas where a speed hacker is gaining an advantage (I.e. Our countermeasures have killed any advantage speed hackers think they gain).

We care tremendously about preventing cheating and spend a good amount of dev time to prevent it from happening in the game. Criticizing Cat Daddy for this aspect doesn't hold a lot of water.

Danan, sorry in advance for my probably bad English. we don't know each other but I think you're a complete liar. let me explain. in these past months you've been telling us: HoF cards won't be auctionable, you don't plan on lowering the card prices, POTG packs won't be on sale. these are just a few examples.

now here's the thing. after all these why would we believe you? I mean it would be conflict of interest if you'd ban SourSyd, because I'm sure he pays a lot of money - maybe he paid you're vacation on Hawaii, I don't mean directly but indirectly he paid the same amount of money -, how else could he pay for all those HS packs? and why do you think we're dumb enough to buy your argument about his suspiciously quick gameplay? I mean how do you have the guts to tell us that he just disregards the card he picks all day long and gets so high in the RC? and what kind of joints he have in his hands, are they made of carbon-fiber?

you may think you're a good spin doctor, but you suck at it. you do nothing but justify your reasons by themselves and it's obvious to most of us. but I know, the app is yours, we are the one who are ****ed. you should just tell us you don't care and we wouldn't be as enraged as of right now.

Re: MyNBA2K16 Dev Diary 1

I can't even laugh at this, because this is exactly what this site is gonna look like in 2 months.

This is all basically because of...

Waaahhhh... I want everything I want, and I want it all for free! The game is terrible if it doesn't let me get specifically what I want, at the highest level, without having to be patient or spend a dime!

I understand the point you're trying to make. The problem I have though is the extremes this app goes to.

To win, you must play a lot or pay a lot. Fine. I get that and sounds fair. But what is "a lot"? This is my problem.

To me, "a lot" is playing the app on about 8 hrs a week or spending $25 a month. With work, family and other responsibilities, that is a pretty good chunk of time on a hobby.

But with the model CD has built in this app, "a lot" equals ridiculous amounts of time and/or money. That's my problem with it.

I just didn't see the link, I got your pm and watched the video. We will investigate as we do with any reports of cheating.

Re: MyNBA2K16 Dev Diary 1

I've said it plenty of times before.

Check my post history. I've laid into CD when it's warranted.

But this community is really just as bad, if not worse, with the ridiculous stances taken.

This community KILLED the card market (with help from CD oversaturation), with desperate buybacks, and a general unwillingness to spend money, but expectations of getting the world. The post I quoted is the exact sentiment I'm talking about. It's THE largest reason the market is dead.

The idea that free players should be able to get exactly what they want, without having to be very patient, very lucky, or very good at working the market.. is honestly ludicrous. It's laughable. Nobody should want that. Not even free players (because itsl kills the entire point of playing the game, as well as the card market). If that's what we want, why not just start the game with a draft where you pick every player you want, and just let that be that?

It's stupid.

The fact that I'm one of only a few players that comes out against the idea that everyone should just always get everything they want, for free, with minimal effort is insane to me. Nobody else seems to see the obvious correlation between the popularity of this mindset, and the fact that the card market is absolutely dead (to everyone's chagrin). The same people that cry about how they can't sell anything, were the very people offering buybacks in the beginning because they were too desperate and impatient to let the market set itself. Now they whine about how nothing sells, and offer 4.5k bb on cards, any chance they get.. not understanding any of what they're doing.

I'm convinced you either work for catdaddy, NWGAMEDAD is your dad or you just have a major crush on someone at catdaddy and you just have to stick up for them whenever somebody posts something you don't agree with. Seriously though all you seem to do is post when someone bad mouths the game or the company... The fact you think this community killed the auction house is a joke considering this community is a small group of players, I'm not sure how 100 or so people offering buy backs managed to effect the other 100,000+ people that play the app... maybe it has to do with the prices of packs and credits...

Also, why do you keep encouraging people to pay, if you don't work for cd? You keep telling people to "spend a dime". Sorry if your rich a*s doesn't understand free players and how it's extremely hard to earn credits in this game.

But with the model CD has built in this app, "a lot" equals ridiculous amounts of time and/or money. That's my problem with it.

So here's my thing:

"A lot" is always going to be relative. For you, 8hrs/$25 constitutes a lot. For somebody else, the split might be 20hrs/$250.

The problem is that all too often, Player A in this scenario still wants to get the EXACT same stuff that Player B gets, and that is so far beyond ludicrous, I cannot understand how a community full of people who seem to be generally intelligent otherwise, all seem to fall in line with this mindset.

Everything in the game operates relative to each individual's level of commitment to the game. Just be OK with what you're able to get, given your level of commitment. That seems like something you shouldn't have to tell smart people.

My deck is pretty good. It's not anywhere close to, say TeamTerminator... but that's OK. He plays way more than I do, and spends a lot more than I do. He should have a better deck.

I have played/paid enough for me to have the deck that I've been able to earn (without having to resort to all sorts of backdoor trading, and offering hj's with my cards in a buyback deal). No more, no less, and I'm OK with it. Why don't more people have this mindset?

Instead everyone wants it all, and is willing to crater the entire market with black market deals that make the entire game worse for everyone (themselves included).

If the game didn't reward more playing/paying, it wouldn't make any sense. Rewarding more paying/playing, also inherently means that less paying/playing means that you WON'T get some of the shiny things others are getting. Oh well. I'm also not giving up my entire life for a week to grind for a card. I say that's a great trade-off on my part. I'm OK with it. Other people should be too.

YOU must be kidding, don't you?
I have already sent a feedback about Egbert AFTER the Portland RC and didn't even get an answer!
So I've Sent it a 2nd time and again I didn't get an answer .....

So please don't Tell me you care!

To be clear, when yo ureport cheating you may not hear back on the results of the report. We cannot disclose actions that we take on another person's account publicly. Privacy concerns exist there that we have to be careful with. Unfortunately, for the reporter it will feel unsatisfying because you don't get to see the end result. However, this is how we have to handle it in order to satisfy privacy concerns for all of our players.

In general, I will say we have dropped the ban hammer a fair number of times on players we have evidence of cheating, no matter their status in the community or how much they have paid or played.

Here are just a couple of posts I've made about CD

http://www.operationsports.com/forum...0&postcount=33
http://www.operationsports.com/forum...5&postcount=30

There are plenty of others.

I think CD has been TERRIBLE with card stats since 2k14 (this year's PO tier was a much improved effort, however.. and lately they've changed a number of cards at players request, like Magic Suns RC, I believe RttC Draymond iirc, and switched RttC Barbosa from PG to SG... so they're making strides), and ice spoken on it. I believe NWGD screwed up majorly when announcing the decision to cut down Season Rewards a couple of months back, and spoke out on that.

When CD screws up, I speak on it.

But I honestly believe that the LARGEST issue with this game's economy is the mindset that free players should be able to get everything they want, as soon as they want it.

It's not just here. It's the Facebook community too... it's all over.

Do I think CD rolled out the AH perfectly? Of course not. I think the tax is too high, minimums have been screwy all along, prices for Pros are generally ridiculous.. I think CD screwed up majorly, just this past week, putting the Greats pack on sale, just a day after lowering AH prices... which essentially made it so that nobody was able to generate credits from AH sales, before everyone focused all their credits on the packs. It would have been better for everybody if the Greats sale started today (a week later), instead.

I do not think CD is perfect.

I just think that the community's mindset is ridiculously juvenile, and it's honestly a little annoying to witness grown people with this sense of entitlement. If you want things, then work for them and/or pay for them. I don't understand how grown people need to be told this.

Hmm ok I get your point!
Fair enough!

But could you please explain why there was SUCH a huge time span between my feedback (Portland Star RC) and the banning of Egbert?

You do realize that people can program scripts to play games once a minute continuously for hours to avoid spamming points and being caught right? And you also realize that it's not hard for scriptors to implement a pop up window the enter the security codes when they pop up. It's your job to stop that, way too many people have admitted to scripting in the past for you to make us think it doesn't exist any longer
