Time to get a PC and join the PUBG party, Rockie

I'm in same boat though, used to just hammer the hell out of few games, but this year is making me visit other things I've put on hold, most of that is because I just can't deal with random scrubs anymore and I don't have that much incentive to continue grinding

Man, I can kind of see why you guys get 2k fatigue now....

I actually enjoy 2k and probably took 1-2 months off playing DBZF and Injustice....gotta switch it up...

Re: YouTube community it’s claiming nba 2k18 is dead

people who claim 2k is dead are the same ones blaming 2k for every single dumb things they do...taking dumb shots while complaining bout how "open" they were followed by "cmon, 2k!..I got 99 3s!"...we all know a couple of those. Sure, 2k18 definitely have faults and they could improve on certain things (cmon, we've all seen those pointless cutscense by now..let us skip it.) but nothing will change the fact that 90% of players on park/pro am play with a sense of entitlement. Save some tapes of your park/proam and you might be surprised how you actually played. Good way to cut out lil mistakes here and there.

You can play different games people lol.

1. Why not just quote me?
2. I never said that 2k is officially dead. I’m saying that more and more casuals are beginning to care less and less about 2k (due to Fortnite)
3. I’m not just spewing nonsense. Here are a few 2k YouTubers with similar sentiments

4. Whether you like it or not, Fortnite has had a huge impact on the lack of 2k18 hype. Doesn’t even matter that it’s a completely different genre. For a game like that to emerge, in a year where 2k decided to piss off a huge portion of its user base, by going overboard with the micro transactions, is the worst thing that could have possibly happened. It’s like pure karma. Fortnite literally capatilzes on everything that people (casuals especially) hate about 2k right now. It’s that simple.
5. Once again, I never said the game was completely dead. But it’s clear as day that the franchise is stagnant and people are losing interest. If you can’t acknowledge this, then you’re just extremely biased or you live somewhere under a rock lol...All you have to do is look on your Twitter TL and I guarantee you’ll barely see anyone talking about 2k or posting 2k content. It’s all about Fortnite lol...That game is helping people send a message to money hungry companies. And that’s “abandon the pay to win model or GTFOH”

Re: YouTube community it’s claiming nba 2k18 is dead

Yeah I am kind of on a opposite end here, I've been repeating here how offline part of this year's game is the one I am not satisfied with, guys probably annoyed by my mentioning of CPU's bad overall defense over and over again. But I am having fun playing online, guys like to complain a lot, I'm 75 rated shot creator/defender and I am usually guarding other much higher rated shooting guards and having fun doing it, I can keep up with them more often than not, I try to play smart basketball on offense, depends on a team, but it can be quite fun. I was never much of an online gamer but since I felt like CPU isn't on my level this year I decided to try it.

I mean this 2k got a lot of issues and I hope 2k19 is going to be much better, but I think these guys complain too much

If I was talking to you directly I would've quoted you. The sentiment itself is ridiculous.

Using youtubers as your analytics is even more ridiculous.

Most of us don't care what game casuals choose to play. They can play both, it doesn't have to be one against the other.

Every year these same people cry about not buying 2k the next year, and the next year comes and the game ends up doing record numbers, especially this year.

Not every gamer out there are fortnite fans... and trying to use that as some kind protest statement is head shaking

WTF is Fornite? Lol jk

I can't believe he just posted those weak *** videos in here. None of us care about these people ****ty opinions.

I think most of this BS has to with the recent 2k league stuff. People are pissed they didn't make it lol. Calling it rigged lol.

The fact that people are comparing 2 very very difference games. Yells how stupid this whole argument is lol.

Re: YouTube community it’s claiming nba 2k18 is dead

I rarely post in here but this thread was too comical for me not to post. The fact the people are saying 2k is dead because of what "YouTubers" say is hilarious. Most of those guys don't even really know basketball they just played 2k because it was the cool game to play at the time. Guys like that are honestly the reason VC became as big a problem as it became because people see them getting all the good players in my team and getting there players to high ratings so they want to match that. I played 2k before YouTube existed and will continue as I feel they put out a good game this year. The fact that they went out of there way to add the all time teams and more classic teams was great as I am a huge basketball fan. I honestly haven't played myplayer or an online this year so I can't speak for everyone but this could be a good thing for true 2k fans if "YouTubers" want to play fortnite instead of 2k as 2k can focus soley on making a great basketball and not the extra stuff.
