Re: Is it just me or is the pie chart just archetypes?

This game's about to be broke as heck, too many badges and stuff 2k cant balance, they keep choosing to add in more stuff like this, yet they could barely balance it 4 years ago, but they add more? Whatever the dev's are envisioning this game to be it's going completely over my head

"My center can shoot and finish but can't defend."


"My center can post but can't shoot."


"My center can defend but can't post."


Why can't I just make the build that I want, you know, my preferred stretch/pass/post/defensive stopper/athletic finishing 7'3" center with handles. This is sooooo unfair!

2klab is going to be VERY busy this year.

There are a LOT of new or revamped badges and for many of them it's not clear what are their specific effects, what triggers them and how they interact with others.

Too bad that 2k didn't provide a detailed description for them, and we can have only some random twitters from beluba and timmerman.

While speedboosting and 3pt% in the 60s/70s are legit... fine

In 2k17, 2k18, and 2k19 you had a standard where you'd get stats in everything correct? Depending on the Archetypes you chose is what you got, but you still got SOMETHING

So why do we have to sacrifice in 2k20? That's the way it is now, we have to sacrifice. Big men in the NBA can do everything, and I'm not asking to do everything, but I'm the bad guy for asking for a simple mid range without having to lower my Rebounding

In 2k19 we didn't have to sacrifice. A Rebounding Post Scorer had
-good Post Scoring
-good Rebounding
-OK mid Range
-OK defense
-OK Free Throws
-Trash 3
-Trash dribbling
-Trash Speed
-Trash driving dunk


NBA 2k20 is a MAJOR downgrade, you can't have Good Defense, Post Scoring, and Rebounding, you now have to sacrifice even more.

They're trolling because they can't form a coherent argument. They read a few YouTube comments and think everyone wants demigods
