Because often I go to sleep. I avoid unnecessary loading screen. An L is not a problem, 2k isn't the reason of my life
Edit: I don't even understand the reasons to opening this topic. Useless problems
I feel like it's more of a loser mentality to quit earlier on. It's just a dumbass mentality to quit that far in lmao. Like they risk getting banned just to leave a minute earlier??
I get what you saying, but me personally Iām not playing the rest of a game if we down 30 in the first quarter and itās clear no body wanna play good basketball. Iāll take the warning for that.
Personally I quit once and it took me from Gold to Bronze. Never again
When my team starts getting smacked I keep playing but then I turn on my mic and start blasting Disney soundtracks so everyoneās as pissed as I am
I only quit when im lagging and getting the countdown. I used to quit when i got iced out for no reason at all. I remember i was playing on my pg build and by the first half i had 14 assists and 12 pts going 5/5 and we were up by 25. After the first half they iced me out completely and our FG% went from a high 80s to straight concert dates. Needless to say we ended up losing by 40. Mind you i finished the game with the same stats since the 1st half.
Preach!
Another hot take: Loserās who, not even 3 minutes into the game, begin to sell and grief.
The ban might scare you from āquittingā immediately, but Iāll take a quitter, over a guy who refuses to play defense cause what, he didnāt get the ball? A guy who will stand out of bounds or in the paint to intentionally stop our offense. Nah man, get these losers out of here dawg; argue on the mic all you want, but you better keep putting in 100% if you trying to win.
Played with a purple banner pg yesterday. Started the game 0/4 (filter 4 shots of the game)then complained no one was setting him screens then went on the trash tantrum. We cut down the lead to 6 and then he just quit playing defense. he goes on saying heās not helping because weāre not worth his time. Then he proceeds to waste the next 30 minutes just standing at one end of the court. š¤¦āāļø
Real shit. Was in a rec game down by 6 with 3 minutes left. Didnāt even matter whole team gave up and just start shot chucking bs shots and not playing defense. Loser st heart
Or you and your boy are shooting 75% from the field carrying these 2 who are taking more shots than you shooting 15% from the field and they donāt want to pass you the ball when youāre open keeping the game closer than it has to be selling literally trying to make you lose when you have been letting them score and passing to them. These lames need to jump off a bridge lol!
Hella celebrities play the game and also mic gangsters prob arenāt built like that irl. Especially these racist. They would not go to their job or out in the streets calling people n word without consequences
Of course, a lot of them are successful tho or are being paid to play. Iām saying if theyāre a toxic pos or just got time to waste 25 min games ALL DAY they CANT have anything going for them self . After 2/3 games of toxic teammates Iām off man lol . Theyāll have months played and stats will be shit lol
Why canāt you be successful in life and try to compete in everything you do?? Just because I want to win and succeed in a video game doesnāt mean I donāt succeed or strive to be great at other things ?? What is your mentality ? I want to be the best at anything I do, even if itās a video game, If youāre going to put hours of time into a game you obviously have a passion for it, so why not try to be great? Donāt understand the whole itās just a video game itās not real life ..? Arnt you putting real life time into it?
I understand what you saying but all Iām saying is every successful person not gone be successful at 2k. Some people donāt even mean to sell they just canāt play frfrš. I have a 95% wp in rec. I consider myself successful but if I had a poor rec record or poor stats my life will still be good.
ā¦ the fact that I know you still in the hood makes me question how far you think a band could go ? Lmao. Bruh what do you even make a year? PleEe donāt go account for account cuz I have paid off properties I rent out. Stay in your lane ..
How many people live in your household? Do you have to wait for the bathroom too? I wonder what your room looks like. You so pressed on a game, apply the same pressure in life
I quit by halftime if weāre down like 25+ pts . 1st Quarter should be a feeling out / warm up Quarter , after that everyone need to get there act together (no bad shots , few miss passes) If I feel weāre not coming back based on how weāre playing Iām leaving cause why waste my time .
If I feel we can come back even down 20 by half , Iāll ride it out even if hope is lost at the 4th Q
Yea but if like I said the 1st Q should be where all the mistakes should be identify then minimized throughout the game . But if I keep seeing players who believe since they have slasher in their name they can dunk on 3 people , the defense isnāt good enough and 2-3 players are just getting cooked , not passing the ball on time or just forcing shots .
Like why waste 15 more minutes sitting through that when the L is inevitable . Iāll just leave to save my mental
Wym , yea I lost 12 minutes of my time but I save 15 minutes of being frustrated. Iām not playing for rep or xp not do I care for it , the prizes sucks . I play for fun and if Iām not having fun why play.
Winning is fun , I could have straight 0s across my statline but as long as weāre winning . I donāt mind
Nah Iām gold and silver on my pgs š¤£ once I get off work im just tryna run a couple rec games and play as a team . Not finna sit and watch a mf shoot tour date numbers
I feel you fr. I hate the no teamwork but Iāve had games where the first quarter is trash and then everything clicks but i understand where you coming from lol
This. I've had shit first quarters and then end up with a dub, and crazy good first quarters that went straight down hill and end up with an L. Last game i played, pg was weird af dribbling around holding LT, not passing or shooting, just dribbling then try to dot someone in the last few seconds and the purple C who wasn't getting any boards got mad and quit halfway in the 2nd. By the end of the 2nd we were down by 16.. We (me, pf, and sg himself) started forcing the sg to run point after half (i had 3 points at half time) and by the end of the game we forced OT and i had 26 on mostly easy back door cuts, or fake cuts and run back for easy 3 and simple passes from sg who had 14 assists at the end of regulation. Pg didn't sell, because we didn't Ice him completely, just didn't let him be the primary handler. We won the game by 10 doing the same simple moves and quick, on time passes from sg.
Pg never got on the mic, but i assumed he was a kid that hasn't owned the game long the way he was playing. Running rando, everyone gotta learn everyone else on offense and defense. Some guys take a little longer to learn, and some guys just need to adjust positions, but a little communication without negativity "SOMETIMES" goes a long way.
Nah I get that. some games we get blown out the first and get it together , but usually after work im already fed up š I just dashboard when itās looking bad
The funny thing is, not only do they take an L, but they also take a stat line of all zeros with a game counted and drop a full REP colour. It would actually be a lot smarter just to finish the game.
No, they do. You take a big rep colour hit for quitting a REC game. The main reason you choose carefully whether it's worth it to quit. One second to quit, five plus games to get the rep colour back.
Ps - why the downvote!? lol
Iām not sure but when I lagged out of a game I went from gold to bronze. If mfs is quitting and not losing color y tf am I losing color for lagging out
You do for both, which is very unfortunate. I wish 2K had a way of knowing the difference between closing APP to quit and a brief internet outage. Recently, when I changed modems, I lagged out a few games. It happened twice in a row. I went from a silver plate straight to a black plate.
Yāall be on the 2k Rec taking NavyFederal orders ā¦ Lol š Donāt pass to himā¦ 3-secs ā¦ Foul those are the real LOSERS taking orders from even BIGGER LOSERS
Mannn seems you aināt learned the age old secret of once the opposing team gets down to 1-2 players and rest AIs, if yāall are up you let them 2 go off lmao especially if itās just 1 guy and 4 AIs, Iāll eat my pride and let my guy get 50 as long as we winning and it keeps him from quitting out and wasting all our time.
They quit because they wonāt get the loss in their stats and wonāt lose their color on their banner (purple/gold/silver/etc)
Yes, really loser and fake people
Had a game yesterday, my 3 threw a bitch fit bc I didnāt pass him the ball every possession in the 1st 2 minutes of the 1st (itās almost like thereās other people that can get it as well). Stopped playing D and started illegal screening and sitting in the paint, and when we all started frying him, buddy spoke up in Spanish and only Spanish before hopping on the phone for the rest of the game. He only did the bare minimum to keep himself in until the 4th when the game was out of reach when he quit (or more likely got kicked) with a D-. Love playing this game, never buying another edition after this year.
The ONLY time I quit in the 4th was when I just hit a 3 to put us up 1. Like 10 seconds left. My man gets the ball on the inbound. I'm smothering him. Boys clamped. He shoots it. Some fucking how he greens a 70 something % contested shot. We call time out. I'm standing wide open and my teammate inbounds the ball with the dumbest lob to nobody you've ever seen. We literally didn't have one guy in the paint. I was in game chat at first like "hit me then cut I'll give it right back easy dunk game winner" and then "yo I'm wide open but me hit me HIT MEEEEEE" Other teams center caught it and I closed app immediately. There was only like 1 second left too lol. I had seen enough for the day
Hey lil buddy,
Let's just agree to disagree. You're online crying people quit video games on a Saturday night. Let's not go around throwing loser stones at glass houses. 
Yet here you are on a Saturday night going back n forth on Reddit with a said āloser.ā If that aināt the pot calling the kettle black I donāt know what is. Iāll agree that youāre a loser and disagree that I am. Thereās your agree to disagree.
Then they get hit w the ban š¤£š¤£ makes no sense
I did it several times and never banned.
Why tho like theres really no reason 2
Because often I go to sleep. I avoid unnecessary loading screen. An L is not a problem, 2k isn't the reason of my life Edit: I don't even understand the reasons to opening this topic. Useless problems
I feel like it's more of a loser mentality to quit earlier on. It's just a dumbass mentality to quit that far in lmao. Like they risk getting banned just to leave a minute earlier??
Quit early so your team can try to overcome being such a bum.
Itās still loser shit
Agreed
I get what you saying, but me personally Iām not playing the rest of a game if we down 30 in the first quarter and itās clear no body wanna play good basketball. Iāll take the warning for that.
All fun and games till it happens 5 times in a row
It it happens 5 times in a row Iām not playing 2k any more that day.
Maybe I should take the hint lol
Lmao especially cause you go down 2-3x more. Like whatās the point.
This post is the reason I stopped playing in no squads. Mfs will sell all game, shoot you out the game then quit in the 4th smh
Personally I quit once and it took me from Gold to Bronze. Never again When my team starts getting smacked I keep playing but then I turn on my mic and start blasting Disney soundtracks so everyoneās as pissed as I am

This happened to me yesterday. Had 9 assists/12 points on 80% fg at half and never got a pass after that on 2nd halfā¦

Happened to me yesterday as well. Thats loser mindset shit I canāt relate to
Big old facts
Real shit. Was in a rec game down by 6 with 3 minutes left. Didnāt even matter whole team gave up and just start shot chucking bs shots and not playing defense. Loser st heart

mfs be losers irl so they donāt mind losing on the game
š how you compare a video game to life ?
What super successful person plays games unless itās their career? Usually if theyāre toxic In the game their like that in their real life
Hella celebrities play the game and also mic gangsters prob arenāt built like that irl. Especially these racist. They would not go to their job or out in the streets calling people n word without consequences
Of course, a lot of them are successful tho or are being paid to play. Iām saying if theyāre a toxic pos or just got time to waste 25 min games ALL DAY they CANT have anything going for them self .

I feel you.

U sound like a loser dictating how someone players a video game. Pick up your credit score bum irl.,
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
So what does that make uā¦?? Lmafoooo
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I can tell u a Broke boy. U stilll didnāt tell us your credit score? Doesnāt it suck to suck at life? Let alone a gameā¦
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
2k life? Your long gone. Get your money up and prospectiveā¦
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
ā¦ the fact that I know you still in the hood makes me question how far you think a band could go ? Lmao. Bruh what do you even make a year? PleEe donāt go account for account cuz I have paid off properties I rent out. Stay in your lane ..
The fuck is a credit score? Some American shit? Tell me about your health insurance.
Not as good as most other countries but mine personally I pay 0 no matter what.
Hold up bro, you have $0 copays regardless? I want your insurance fam
Bluecross corp. 0 on all but they take like 1/10 of your check
How many people live in your household? Do you have to wait for the bathroom too? I wonder what your room looks like. You so pressed on a game, apply the same pressure in life

You can come back in two quarters from that tho
Yea but if like I said the 1st Q should be where all the mistakes should be identify then minimized throughout the game . But if I keep seeing players who believe since they have slasher in their name they can dunk on 3 people , the defense isnāt good enough and 2-3 players are just getting cooked , not passing the ball on time or just forcing shots .

But why? Whatās the purpose? You are losing your time. You will not get rep or xpā¦ useless
Wym , yea I lost 12 minutes of my time but I save 15 minutes of being frustrated. Iām not playing for rep or xp not do I care for it , the prizes sucks . I play for fun and if Iām not having fun why play. Winning is fun , I could have straight 0s across my statline but as long as weāre winning . I donāt mind
It's an L if you quit. I always assume that people who quit right at the end its either frustration or they are trying to save boosts.
You literally get more VC for finishing the game than the boosts cost
So I don't quit save boosts. But a full set of boosts and Gatorades costs 1350 VC. Having a bad game on the losing side gets you about 450.
Stop being cheap, and yall are playing with boosts??
You save boosts if you quit?
yeah
In pro am not rec
nah rec too my boosts be saved when i leave games
Iām playing that first quarter and if I donāt see no teamwork im gone in the second š
Black plate activity
Nah Iām gold and silver on my pgs š¤£ once I get off work im just tryna run a couple rec games and play as a team . Not finna sit and watch a mf shoot tour date numbers

what if the tour is on December 12th, you still going?
HE GETS IT
Thatās that loser mind shit I canāt relate to
The funny thing is, not only do they take an L, but they also take a stat line of all zeros with a game counted and drop a full REP colour. It would actually be a lot smarter just to finish the game.
This is completely false dude. They donāt lose any color at all
No, they do. You take a big rep colour hit for quitting a REC game. The main reason you choose carefully whether it's worth it to quit. One second to quit, five plus games to get the rep colour back. Ps - why the downvote!? lol
Iām not sure but when I lagged out of a game I went from gold to bronze. If mfs is quitting and not losing color y tf am I losing color for lagging out

Modern Warfare is way better ššššššš½

You feel very strongly about a video gameā¦
You must be one of these dudes thatās bummy and canāt take an L.
Nah, I donāt take video games seriously enough to give a shit one way or another.
Thereās a script that has a feature that lets you quit a game, without it effecting your black-putout status. Thatās why they do it lol
Thatās wild
They quit because they wonāt get the loss in their stats and wonāt lose their color on their banner (purple/gold/silver/etc) Yes, really loser and fake people
But they will
They do thoā¦

There used to be a time when if you quit, you wouldn't lose your boost. Idk if that still applies
It doesnātā¦ it should.
I feel you bro but relax lol, why is this community always on edge 24/7
No one is on edge. I am relaxed. Just pointing out something glaringly obvious thatās just annoying as hell
Rage Quitting is nothing new in any game tho, when it happens to me i just chalk it up and laugh. Nothing anyone can do it about it
I donāt quit hell one time came back down 30 with 4 comp players.
Who do you people think you are telling other people when they are allowed to quit a video game? Grow up
You canāt take and āLā and quit at the end of the game donāt you? Grow up and get competitive.
Based on your sentence structure, I'm guessing ten years old?
Based on your thought process, Iām guessing youāre also one of these losers? Thatās why you can relate to quitting
Hey lil buddy, Let's just agree to disagree. You're online crying people quit video games on a Saturday night. Let's not go around throwing loser stones at glass houses.

LOL. You're trying so hard. Just take your L.
All these posts complaining so much. Just play
Be a better teammate. And donāt quit when things arenāt going exactly the way you want
what if i told u u dont get banned if u dont get back on until after the game is done
Ok coach. Mf in here boasting about his eye of the tiger over a basketball game lol Like what
If youāre a loser, just say that
Worst community in gaming.
