Squads Ruin the Fun

You had no spot... If you had 5 you would have been on the court... If you don't have 5, it takes no time to send out squad invites to people already in the rec.


Learn how to make friends or stay out of the rec.

Well, it's probably a good thing you're a video game basketball gamer instead of a real life baller. With your logic, you would be in a fight every time you went to play basketball at the local park or rec. Your logic wouldn't apply in the real world.

The post is literally about people not joining squads and people who stand around doing nothing. Which is why squadding up with randoms doesn't work.

And when I'm playing with a few friends and we need one and no one joins, or they join and never come to squad up what do you suggest then rec center god? That's where matchmaking works.

You must actually like waiting a half hour for a game to finish too...never heard that before.


Learn how to post without being a condescending (you know) or stay out of my topic.

I play in real life as well Mr. Poor Assumptions...


If I only have 1 friend with me, you got a squad trying to play 3v3, and a group of 3 walk up that know each other, they're going to get the game. Happens all the time.


You're not going to trump 3 when you only have two.. That defies simple logic. If you don't have 3, you theoretically weren't ready...

They should have added the ability to call up next and then go get. Game of 21.in. That way you could show cats that you can ball Ile in real life.

[TarHeelPhenom]

I don't know where y'all dudes from. But IRL, if you call up next then you got next. If 3 on 3 is going on and me and my boy got next...and we only have two...and then a squad of 3 come up...They gotta wait period! Me and my boy will just simply pick one from the losing squad. But nobody has a right to Debo your ups. That's an unwritten rule in the streetball rules manual man lol. That's the problem with the young thundercats today... respect lol.

No I mean park match making. What's better about standing and waiting for a game?? It's not like you can do anything and we all have the same animations lol...

Granted we have over 5,000 new walks and dances and that's cool for kids but I'd rather just jump in and rep up instead of hoping to get a game going in a park that will start will 80 people and then only have 6 playing in less than 2 hours. Matchmaking would solve that and there would never be an empty park or court.

They could easily have it so we match make into a game where there are people who already have next waiting for 1 or 2 players or where there is a game done and people have left and 3 are waiting. OR where there is 1 on a spot and 1 on another a vice versa. It's really irresponsible for 2k not to have matchmatching for the park that's online only. Especially in 2015...Could match by rating or ranking, either way it would work. 2k is just lazy guys.

Makes no sense I just thought of that idea sitting here. Makes less sense why this isn't in.
