Finding a match and quitting immediately and then doing that over and over again, I see the method and framing the VC. But playing the whole game to farm VC makes no sense……it’s completely inefficient……lol. And there playing the whole game so how are the “farming”.
China black market probably, they sell those high vc bot accounts for a large sum for some very rich us or eu players.

Re: Play Now Online: NBA 2K23

Can anybody tell me what your suppose to do with Wilt in tier 3? He misses absolutely nothing. Hands up doesn’t register half time and when it does it’s useless.

The paint is OD right now. I really wish they would remove classic teams and give them their own tier to play in against other classic teams. The 1000 of badges they give these star players is ridiculous. This dude flys around the whole court and recovers like nothing happened.

The Gatorade symbol is just decoration. Stamina does not matter In this game.

Has anybody else run into what seems like bots playing. It's getting ridiculous. Im on PS5 and when I go to the profile it's only has a few 2ks and Chinese Traditional as language. It's an easy win but I quit out. I haven't seen anybody say anything about it

Simple improvement would be to raise the PNO difficulty, Feels like Pro/All Pro down in the paint…

zone, man, it doesn't matter...my point is that AI defenders are out of position ALOT...and there's no settings that can fix it. Alot of us have mitigated this by using our worst defender or do work early with the guy they're targeting.

Think about how bad the AI defends the slip on PNR sometimes....or dies on screens consistently. Look at the play the bucks user ran religiously against DarkBlaze below. It gets Jrue open so well that he ran it instead of plowing through guys in the paint with Giannis. That kind of separation breaks the whole defense:

Of course...but its not the strategy thats elite--its the player. On D we just want to make the shot as difficult as possible. But if your AI defender keeps dying on screens no amount of switching to him late is gonna do squat. you're going to have to be a big boy and go off-ball and navigate the screen yourself so the shooter isn't open....or watch him shoot open shots all day.

YOUR CHOICE.

Ehh....I think you're underestimating lots of these guys. We may not like the way they play but alot of these guys are really good. Look at how quickly most of them adapt to changes in gameplay mechanics. Its the same guys that are STILL GOOD. Its not that they can't do ______ they just take the easier route and choose not to.

Hmmm....admittedly, less skill...sure. And I don't like the button mashing for steals either but again, blame the mechanics of the game....they do it because it works. How long have we been complaining about that?

...not how it works. Thats like saying "I can beat Giannis if he can only shoot jumpers" lol. There are no pacts between Predators and Prey....Minus game exploits everything is free game. The opponents bag vs yours. Your arrogance of their level of skill is cute....but i've seen this movie before lol. It usually ends the same way.

That completely went over your head. They can play however they wanna play, you can play however you wanna play. What im saying is, if it came down to it and they had to play onball defense only, they would get punish. Just MO. Like you said, theyre taking the easy way out. That's not skill. How do you and anyone else call that "elite" lol
