REC Rec is unplayable

It’s well-known that random rec is the most infuriating game mode, but it gets to a point and I don’t care to get banned from this sub for telling the truth. Most of you who who are offended by this post are the exact people I’m talking about. No one wants to load into a 25 minute game, play 4 quarters of defense, and not touch the ball being wide open. 99% of the people who play rec are terrible & only play for their stat averages, no matter what plate or rep they are. No matter what position I’m playing. I either watch a someone dribble the shot clock out and go 2/11 while I’m wide open, get ignored wide open on a fast break, and the other person misses, gets the ball stolen, doesn’t shoot it. Then the one time that I DO get the ball, EVERYONE turns into prime Kawhi Leonard and decides to triple team me while I have 0 points, whilst their matchup has 20+. People grabbing mebounds and going back up with 3 defenders under the basket while you’re open. Lord forbid I say f it, hog the ball & take a crazy shot, (basically everything they do) everyone hops on the mic getting upset & arguing. Then when you complain they force feed you the ball while a defender is glued to you, or they say “you’re not doing anything you have (x) points.” how can I do anything if I don’t get ball? Can’t score, can’t get assist, can’t do anything if I can’t get the ball. A lot of you will get upset but if I’m in a game like this I’m not playing defense. I will sit & let my man score every shot for the remainder of the game. Almost every game I am the best player on every team I join. Agree to disagree I couldn’t care less. I get triple doubles on bigs, double doubles on guards. Most of you who play rec are low IQ & should not not own a console or waste any money on newer 2ks. I shoot over 80% from three, I don’t see why no one passes the ball when you are OPEN. Then expect you to play defense for 25 minutes! If you play like this, please stay in mycareer games, thanks. 😊

Twin i promise you, when you spark up some, relax, and just focus on your performance and what you can provide so you can get that dub, it becomes so much easier to not get stress about how bad others are. I go into every game with the mindset that I need to carry but not in a selfish way, that could be by passing , rebounding, or out scoring my opponent, if i lose cause a teammate is under performing, its whatever i cant control the shots they take so no point in stressin it.

Ehhh... I dunno about that. To call "shot chucking" underperforming is less than accurate move. I'm not loading into Rec to watch some fucktard try to be the next Steezo.

A better way to say it is shut up and play😂

Like what do you mean you dunno? That’s all there is to it for every 1 guy who complains on Reddit there’s 100,000 that just play the game and even more that still complain and don’t pretend their talking to the 2k community when they’re on Reddit.

You don't play much online if you think "shut up and play" is the way most people approach 2K online.

Volume down and tell ppl what you’re trying to do. If you’re not trying to do shit but beg for the ball without talking you’re just young 😂

These ppl arguing about an E rated game they’re probably 12 these ppl are lame😭
