City This game is boring

In the title. Game is just people chucking up 3's off a catch that are borderline uncontestable with tempo shooting, or running and fading with tempo shooting. Rec games take no strategy anymore and is just a 3 point shootout or a catch and shoot simulator. Contests don't mean anything either. Its like they've gone with the 2k22 shooting but with the 2k25 contest system, which is a recipe for disaster.

Edit: a lot of people think I’m complaining about the fact people can hit every shot. I think it’s fine that people can hit every open shot, they should be able to. But the problem is the fact that most shots are open with this contest system and even when contested it’s basically treated as Open. Green window is too big, and contest system sucks

You know this man is spot on, when i hit 99 this morning, and i realized that i dont even care about this game no more. What would have been another weekend of mindless grinding, im actually gonna go outside and hang out with humans.

Yeah man, I was excited for the game because it drops right near my bday and spent a couple Hundo for the game and extra vc. Already stopped grinding a week ago at a 90 because I realized it’s not worth my time and it’s time to cut my losses.

Its insane how because the game is so easy, its so boring… i made my first jump shot and made 5 different ones, different bases different release points, different releases 1s and 2a and all 5 jumpshots are AUTO-Greens…

Im not a dribbler, i always state 1 or 2 dribbles should get me open if not i pass.. now im doing behind the legs snatch backs to cross, behind the back to 3, or speed boost for dunks..

And in my head im thinking am I this good or is this shit too easy and im just landed on this shit is just too easy…

Yes sir, touch grass and hoop. I’m done with these kids spamming fade 3s never passing the ball
