They absolutely work on NG. Good time to bring back that badge

That said I think the contact dunk animation could be scaled to not activate as far back.
I love the charges, but i get them by accident. I tried to take about 3 a game, and they love calling blocks or no calls on me. Haha.

I do see about 2 or 3 a game though. Which is a good number.

Yep, good positioning can get you a charge, which is also a plus.

If you want sim you're def playing the wrong modes.
How does that help? You're saying "don't play this mode" instead of changing the mode through feedback. If enough "sim" players made their way to MyPLAYER, maybe the mode would be more balanced via feedback. One thing we know about 2K - they listen to feedback. And right now the casuals are winning by a 1000 miles. If anything, you should be encouraging more people to MyPLAYER modes so that more sim elements can be brought to these modes.

MyPLAYER modes have the MOST realistic/sim framework (first person perspective, which is what it is like IRL) with the worst EXECUTION of realism relative to the other modes. And it's because for some reason there is this inherent expectation from some people that "these modes" should be arcade trash for 10 yr olds.

Slashing is a joke. An absolute joke. Specifically in Rec and proam slashing builds are blowing past eveyrone and finishing contact dunks EVERY SINGLE POSSESSION. The alley oops are pure comedy. People are throwing Oops all over the court. You see 5+ alley oops from 35 feet away off the backboard and someone grabs it within looking and dunks it.

Until this is fixed this game can be considered broken.
I'm thinking of making a Mutombo build just for this reason

**** you can see that in Park sometimes.

Last gen, those situations felt more like basketball than the NBA side sometimes.
Especially PNO

The biggest issue is the inflated shooting IMO. Everything else has a legit counter.
JRC with in sync basketball is one of the most rewarding and fun experiences in this game . I like play now/ offline too but 5 users syncing is different and can be just as sim .

Re: Until they fix slashing this game will remain an arcade game

They aren't supposed to be arcade modes.... the alley oops and contact dunks have NEVER been this insane before. 2 out of every 3 possessions is a contact dunk. Contact dunks on 2+ people every time. Every time.

The oops off the backyard are the worst. Literally every position player is throwing line drives off the backyard and they are caught and dunked easily. ON FOUR PEOPLE.

This **** no joke is the Cages. NBA Street. NBA Hangtime. NBA on NBC. NBA Jam. NBA Jam:TE

Your mutombo build would still be dunk on 8/10 times there is no stopping to that it just feels like there is not enough body contact animation when the player is in the air.

Off-topic: They should have never removed that badge to begin with, 24th. Made guys like Derrick White, Marcus Smart, Kyle Lowry & Manu Ginobili more impactful on defense. Hopefully it'll make it's return at some point.
