Doesn’t he say that every year? Lol

But them putting MJ on the cover and Ronnie flatly stating MJ is their GOAT makes me hopeful and give them the benefit of the doubt that they’re really trying to achieve greatness this time. I mean MJ is so meticulous about his brand and likeness I imagine he’s like this better be y’all’s best game. Lol

2K22 achieved greatness at launch but they patched it out. Although to me with my settings it’s pretty perfect.

Every 2K is the best 2K ever according to Ronnie and the marketing team. They’re going to say the same thing about 25, 25, 26, etc.

A new gameplay system that makes the gameplay feel different than any other year?

I'm listening...

I feel like 'best 2k ever' and 'revamped gameplay' gets promoted every year. We'll see.

What are your settings??

Re: Ronnie 2k says 2k23 is the best 2k ever!

What are your settings??

Tweaked player tendencies to lower most players with 99 drive tendency (lowered to 85-90) and raised a bunch of mid range tendencies.

Base difficulty at HoF. From there adjust:

Lower jumpshot defensive strength sliders to 20 for cpu and user. I also lowered release timing sliders

Raise *CPU* on ball/lateral quickness/defensive awareness/defensive consistency sliders to around 93.

Lower durability sliders to 5-10 (to try to get more injuries).

Raise shooting foul sliders to 100

Go into user and cpu defense menus and manually put every player into “auto” mode. Everyone is set as “custom” by default. And even if it does say they’re listed as “auto” you have to manually adjust it to auto again yourself. Reason being is double teams are NEVER set to “auto” by default. So in order to get proper doubles you have to manually adjust every player to auto.

I can go more into detail but that’s a synopsis. My game plays nearly perfect. I get 20-30 free throws a game for both sides. I have shooting sliders for CPU at around 56 and shooting sliders for myself at around 51. Honestly I have no intention of buying 2K23. I spent months and months building my all time roster to perfection and really don’t want to do it again. But 2K did the ONE F***in thing that could get me to buy 23 and that’s update MJ and put attention into his likenes.

This means absolutely nothing

It’s going to be “the worst 2K ever” like every year

Competition brings out the best & certainly a sense of urgency. It's no surprise 2k11 had to go the lengths they did to follow up LIVE 10.

I wont hold my breath on this being the best 2k ever, but all I ask is gameplay not be decided on the weight of overblown player badges.

Honestly, I really haven't had problems with the gameplay since NBA 2K20, minus that I felt like I slept on current gen NBA 2K21. I hated next-gen NBA 2K21. My problems of late has been the damn meta in every mode. If 2K can address the metas, then I wouldn't have any real "negatives" about the game.

In the hindsight, I think the game has defense when played properly, but (as you kinda stated) the badges trump the defense over and over and over. So, it's really a gameplay problem. It's more of a balancing issue.

Like others have stated, this means absolutely nothing. Anyone in his position that DIDN'T say that should be fired on the spot.

Who can't wait to edit rosters all year again in yet another new 2K?

Re: Ronnie 2k says 2k23 is the best 2k ever!

This news changes everything.

If I soon hear that 2K23's gameplay is much better than last year's gameplay which the public relations team will now consider lacking after a year in which they insisted it was perfectly sufficient then I don't know what I'm going to do with myself.

Improved player art. Better gameplay. Teams play like themselves now. Custom jump shots. A MyPlayer story you'll have to play to believe. All the shoes. So many player cards. Passes have zip. The court has spacing. AI defenders know the game now. AI offensive players read what's happening on the court like never before. Badges are less over-powered (unless you already thought they were underpowered, in which case we've added more power).

Pre-order now.

Well as i am on PC, i can completely ignore any Marketing for the New game as it just does Not Show the game that i will be getting.
