Most idiotic online game ever

[Gosens6]

If it REALLY upsets you that much, don't you have the option to just stop buying and playing the game? This isn't a question just the OP, but to everyone that is constantly complaining about the state of online play, over and over again.

Honestly the only solution I can think of is to just suck it up and deal with the way it is, or just stop playing the game.

The game is a joke, the basic gameplay is terrible, and yet... here you are playing it. And for whatever reason you think your opinion/sensibilities are the ones that 2K should be listening to.

Real life isn't perfect - players use performance enhancing drugs, refs miss calls, players do any/everything to gain an edge against an opponent, etc. No different than a random opponent is going to do online; they're playing to win. As 23 said, cheesing/cheating is never going to be completely eliminated - you're always going to run up against someone willing to do any and everything to win by any means necessary. And you online-only guys (only the ones that complain incessantly that is) will continue to complain, thinking falsely thinking a videogame can be this idealistic perfect representation they think the game can be.

And of course, that's the thing you'll hide behind - "the game is supposed to be a sim". YOUR interpretation of a sim of course. By most accounts the game skews far more sim than it does arcade, despite the vast majority of the game's fanbase being casual fans. If anything it would make far better financial sense to cater the game to them. They don't, but that's not enough for you.

No matter what 2K does, it's never going to be enough for you because the game is never going to be perfect - and there will always be people out there willing to exploit flaws.

nobody wants or expects perfection...I complain about this game and any game because I'd like to see some improvement...The same way people complain about Madden...Its because they want to like the game...they want to be able to enjoy the game...settling for an unacceptable product should never be the #1 option.

its funny how I've never seen so many people eager to just say...accept it...don't play it...but the same people saying accept it or don't play online will cry all day long about other sports game...Hypocritical?...double standard???...I dunno...you decide.

2K can't be happy with the way this game performs online...People who play online deserve better and even if you don't play online you should want the game to play well in all modes.. Guys saying don't play online or online is not important is a statment coming from a closed mind. its 2013...people want to interact with others online...everything we do in this world now is about interaction.

What would most of you say if the problem was switched an online played great and offline was terrible?...I couldn't imagime saying something absurd like..."Games are meant to be played H2H and against others...don't play the cpu then"...smh

See, I never liked the grade. It's not in depth, I want to know what I did to CAUSE the grade/what I need to do to IMPROVE it. To me, right now, it's just a letter, no real report on what it is or how to improve it or it truly being accurate.

Hide behind???...bro...lets agree to disagree...I don't need to hide at all...the game is a sim, right...thats what its supposed to be, correct...I thnk we both can at least agree on that.

Now that being said...I doubt very much that it is possible for Kirk Heinrich to come down court dribble around the perimeter back n forth while not passing, scooch up to his hot spot and hit 39% of his 3's while taking 18 of them on a regular basis. Maybe thats possible once or twice but a steady diet of it...I think not...But maybe for you thats realistic. This sort of gameplay is no different from the days when you could play Madden, hike the ball and turn and sprint backwards 30 yds and complete passes...If people didn't call that garbage it it woild still be in the game...Or lets take it a step further...what if you could routinely complete 1 outta 4 long bombs in a football game and thats all people did?...would that be acceptable..or would you want the develoers to fix that sort of gameplay?...I guess not...you'd probably say...Only playthe cpu or friends...smh

I'm assuming that your one of those 2K can do no wrong and I will defend it till the end...Thats cool...Don't take my complaint personal...The online part of this game is not good...2k is still a great game...they just need to improve online play. I aint even mad or upset...Just telling it like it is hoping that 2k will hear people that are concerned about online play.

Of course I believe it's a simulation. You're the one insinuating it's not. I've said the game isn't perfect - but neither is real life. The situation you mentioned is nothing like someone running 30yds back in Madden if I understand correctly. Someone hitting 39% from three isn't outrageous imo - you seem more upset that you're playing some random that chooses to use that strategy and is more successful going 20of50 from three versus going 25of50 from two.

I never said 2K can do no wrong; as I said the game is flawed and will always be flawed. But as long as you refuse to accept that, you're always going to allow yourself to get frustrated playing someone that doesn't play the game the way you want them to play it imo.
