this is a reminder that this video game is at your service for the purpose of having fun with your time — enjoy the ride, stressing about the grind isn’t worth it
accumulating cards & grinding is cool to have a goal & reach it — but if you aren’t having fun actually playing the game against another user you should stop spending your time on this game
this is my first year being engaged in myteam & the 2k userbase, it’s pure insanity to me how the majority of this community doesn’t play 2k for the enjoyment/beauty of hooping but instead need some kind of goal or prize to achieve. bad feelings & rage over this game is a constant theme on these forums
if you aren’t playing for fun as your number one priority, and you consider playing this game a grind/suffer to accumulate more cards/goals, you should reconsider spending your time playing this game into something you actually enjoy doing rather than suffering for no purpose
additional game modes, a leaderboard/matchmaking points & fixes to playbook glitch / pwf sliders would be brilliant, BUT if you don’t enjoy playing for the sake of playing then don’t play, it’s madness to continue a hobby that isn’t bringing you positivity
try new cards, play with your favorite players, don’t get so caught up in the meta & achieving the best team possible, small pgs like curry & kyrie are a blast with this new patch — try & make your gameplay as enjoyable as possible
Hard to remember this sometimes but at the end of the day it is a game; a source of entertainment and enjoyment. If it’s not serving those purposes for someone then what the hell is the point? Especially if you’re spending money…
Facts. Or even stop playing my team. 2k made a really impressively good basketball game this year and if you don’t check out other game modes you’ll never even know it. I understand the need for collection rewards but have no idea how that can be more important than enjoyable gameplay.
I put a lot of time playing, and reading about, this game. I don’t give a fuck if I’m lose, almost every game is enjoyable for me. Even if I’m lost by 30.
This is my first year playing MyTeam too, before I would log around 1000 games in PNO.
It’s fun for sure, but I only play players that I like or find interesting. I see so many people running Oden and Antwan Jamison just because base 11 and a big with a 3 point shot, but why run them if you don’t like them?
I’m 5 tokens away from my first and only PD that I want, Tim Duncan. My all time favorite player. Same reason I play 2 bigs and rarely shoot 3s. Just playing the game to have fun mainly.
I recommend PNO for anyone who needs a break. It’s way more toned down and plays like a real sim.
My favorite play is where everyone stands behind the 3pt line and i momentum crossover and momentum behind the back with giannis until he euro dunks or passes for a corner 3 if they help
“Play 2k for fun” only if it fits Shams ideologies of what HE thinks is fun
God forbid someone want to try out a speed boosting ruby thon maker in a fantasy card game. Thank you for stepping up and being our moral compass though.
