i want and try to enjoy this game

...but it has me pulling my hair out (literally reach for it, start to pull and then contain myself).. teammates are dumber than all hell, game controls and player movements are so clunky it's just ridiculous... half the time i'm trying to pull something off i end up as the godfather part 3 yelling "THAT IS NOT WHAT I WANTED"!. i don't know how many "are you kidding me's" per game i average but it has to be goat level. paint defense is completely non-existent even with fine tuned settings it's just not there AT ALL.

the list goes on - if you've seen it, you name it. you know the frustration. i paid 80 bucks for more stress in my life guys.

Re: i want and try to enjoy this game

I felt the same way but now learned a lot from the flaws while playing the game a lot. I'm looking for certain things to happen on offense and defense and hurry and make icon switches or adjustments to make up for the dumb AI. Nothing I can do with the cheesy AI shooting jumpers from 2ft away in traffic or dribbling in traffic and not losing the ball like the user would. Or my players juggling with rebounds and the CPU just snatching them out of my players hands.

I feel like playing MyTeam Domination keeps me sane since i'm forced to play arcade like and just have fun.

Re: i want and try to enjoy this game

I do feel this way at times. Mainly:

-dumb teammates/ai
-not doing what you intended/passing to wrong players
-clunkyness


I'd suggest downing a couple beers before 2k


I'm being serious. Otherwise u cant look past the annoying parts that stress you out. It's funny everyone online over their mics bitches at 2k too. "COME ON 2K REALLY??" "I just got 2kd"

i want and try to enjoy this game

Just remember that your playing a game....it's meant to be fun....do what you need to do to make it fun. The game isn't going to change much, it's up to you to adjust.....for some that's playing on a lower level, changing sliders etc. You spent $80, might as well get everything you can out of it.

Just don't get into the cycle of of looking for every flaw, studying every replay, flipping out over every imperfection, blaming everything on the game or you'll end up miserable/whiny like some folks around here......not a good look

Good thing is at least your trying to enjoy the game....wish you the best....and hey, after you try all of the above...the game may simply not be for you, it happens....but I hope you find a way to enjoy and get your money's worth

Happy gaming.

It's been that way ever since next gen. The "clunkiness". I wouldn't say more are frustrated than ever, I think it's the same frustration as 14 and 15.
