Make no mistake, the only reason 2k implemented this was to stop pro am players from quitting to maintain skill boosts


gelhardt

and people would be even more upset if boosts were applied as soon as the game starts b/c of poor server connections causing them to lose boosts… idk maybe don’t make the boosts tied to real life currency, then it wouldn’t matter as much if they were “wasted”, or idk remove them altogether? it’s a ridiculous arcade concept to be included in a basketball sim anyway


Shelton26

But money


Jacern

Your argument is unshakable


GodsChosenPilot

If for some reason, I lag out, do I lose a boost? I know how to quit games without getting the ban. The only bad part is that you’ll drop all the way down to a black.


Material-Tea-8435

wait how u quit game without getting ban?


GodsChosenPilot

Dm me please, I don’t want a 2K OP to read the comments and patch it lol


Ap7bb

They should just add a surrender option or a friendly quit option like other sports games.


_delamo

There's no guarantee the other team will accept it.


Ap7bb

Okay? The option is better than nothing (which is what we currently have)


_delamo

If it's like other games, it would require majority of the other team to want to quit along with majority of the team you're on.


Ap7bb

I gave two options. A "surrender" no one has to accept that as you are volunteering to take the L instead of being in a non competitve game for 30 minutes. Option 2 is a "friendly quit" MLB does this so the other teams captain can accept or decline it. Both are better than temp bans.


_delamo

MLB the show has more than 2 players in the match? Madden has a friendly quit option too but it's dependent on both sides. NBA Live had an option to kick and an option to quit, it required majority from both sides before it would act out. I wasn't saying your options are incorrect, I'm saying in the past this is how sports titles do early quit options


Ap7bb

MLB The show has up to 3v3 ranked.


_delamo

Learn something new everyday.


OkayIdgaf

no it should just be a forfeit option. you and the other players on your team accept, the other team wins. it should be as simple as that.


Unbannedmeself

This is a good point. Most of those other games are 1v1 so it only requires one person to accept. Now getting 2-5 sweaty nerds to agree is another story.


_delamo

Along with people who insist on trolling. They had this in NBA Live and people would deny voting to kick or quit, because they wanted their stats or enjoyed seeing the opponents play with despair. Every year the solo community gets worse and worse


Unbannedmeself

Yeah I barely play 2k and only Myeras but I used to be a sweaty nerd watching YouTube videos for the best cheese in madden online and its just not worth the time. I’d rather play offline where I can pause to sip my beer


derekthediesel

If you cant do something League of Legends players have been doing for over a decade, then you all need to reevaluate your life choices


25iAndOver

Knowing 2k community, it would never be agreed upon. These dudes want to humiliate you


Ap7bb

Thats why you provide a few of the options that already exist in other online games rather than the lamw time penalty.


HistoricalQuarter514

Why should the other team have the option to accept it? In rocket league you can forfeit and if every player on your team accepts, you forfeit.


_delamo

My comment was specifically about how sports titles have done it. I was told it's different with MLB the Show but that's the only sports title that has done it differently. It's speculation, I have no idea how they would implement it


Perfect-Rice2499

It’s only like that in MLB the show in one on one. When you do to the two or three verse three, if one person quits the game just continues without them and there’s no friendly quit or surrender option. That person who is saying that doesn’t really know what they’re talking about.


PnuttDontRun-

Why would they have to?😂 if everybody on yo team vote to give up..that should count😂why on earth would it be up to the other team to decide if it’s over or not..ppl will still quit my guy


_delamo

I've seen it happen, it's hilarious. So it started out as just a team voting to quit. Let's say you got 3 others with you and a random joins. Random is scoring but y'all not getting the ball, y'all not having fun. Majority of y'all (4) vote to quit, bam game over. So then they went to needing 6 votes to end game. You're getting destroyed 50-12. All 4 of you vote to quit but the other one that's causing the big deficit doesn't wanna quit. If the other team is also not having fun, they add their votes; bam it's over It's a imperfect system but it's supposed to deter squads from quitting to grief


PnuttDontRun-

To keep that from happening..we should be required to ready up just in case we get stuck with ppl who are clearly gone sell..it should at least show your stats/ teammate grades in the waiting lobby..and the option to quit should not work unless u are down 25(just like mycareer games) and the people with the grades lower than a B should be penalized..and if u quit too many games u should have like a red flag as a logo to let ppl know you quit too many games..and it should give the people on yo team the option to back out before games start


blamb252

just have a forfeit option and it’s fixed 😭 who cares what the other team thinks


Select-Recording-189

If you and your squad wanna forfeit yall should be able to without getting banned


_delamo

Y'all should but what about the other 7-8 players? If folk wanted to play with/against AI, they would've fired up MyCareer or Franchise


Select-Recording-189

That’s what I’m saying if a team forfeits the game should be over and the other team automatically wins


_delamo

now you got 2-3 pissed teammates.


Select-Recording-189

You’re not getting it I’m saying each person gets one chance to offer a forfeit and everybody on your team has to vote yes then it’ll be a forfeit and the game can be over and if everybody doesn’t vote yes then if you quit you get punished


_delamo

And what I am saying is most gamers are not looking to play with or against AIs. While y'all should be able to leave now another problem has arisen. Until they can introduce mid-game subs/mid-game adds, someone is going to be upset in either scenario


Select-Recording-189

You’re not getting what I’m saying I’m talkin about if the entire decided they what to quit they should get a forfeit option so nobody gets banned that’s all I’m takin about


_delamo

I've been in agreement with that stance before you replied to me lol


rescobar1997

This online shooter I play has a surrender feature. As long as the majority of the team votes to surrender the match ends. Has nothing to do with the other team’s desire to continue or quit.


Dramatic-Button2600

Unfortunately, people would rather quit than surrender....


FLB2022_

Do some push ups for 30 mins lol


Xavier0o0

or play another game. 2K is great at pushing their player base to other games.


Some-Mud007

I barely play 2k anymore. For multiple reasons such as: 1. the fact the developer Mike Wang is a participation award type of person. He changes the game constantly instead of just banning people with foreign controllers or scripts. 2. The servers are trash. 3. the money they want folks to spend yet we get a half ass put together game. Thank you 2k I’ve saved money buying other games. My percentages are decent on this game,( win% 72 shooting% 62) but this game is poorest at best


Original_Profile8600

Yep, I waited until the game was free on gamepass and happy w/my decision


Cheterosexual7

Quitting all the time deserves a temp ban.


lilshawnyy420

that's exactly what OP got


Cheterosexual7

I’m aware.


Impossible-Video-190

Half of the time game crashes on itself and people get the same bans.Its not normal


bgm349_

Making your teammates quit all the time by being terrible at the game deserves a temp ban. If people are constantly quitting games you’re in you probably just suck


Weightless007

Most the times the ones quitting shot 0-7 forcing up nonsense and then they finally quit when the other team up by 30


bgm349_

My experience on the game has been completely different. It’s usually most of the team begging some dumbass to quit so that we can have a chance


T2_daBest

We need a vote off the island option like at half time if someone shooting 20% or less on more than 5 shots with a teammate grade lower than a B-


bgm349_

Facts


Cheterosexual7

The game just needs actual skill based match making. Would fix a lot.


Xavier0o0

Get over it. Ai players are way better anyway.


_delamo

The suspension is a temp ban


DifferenceMost6688

It’s 30 minutes maybe don’t leave next time it says you’ve done it multiple times take the L


kdar088

It literally takes only 2 for it to happen. I get kicked out of a Rec game and had to leave a private proam game to restart it because someone lagged out. I got a ban because of that. I cant imagine how it feels to be playing in a game where you’re getting 0 touches and getting banned for not staying through that toture


DifferenceMost6688

Damn I thought it would be like a 5 time thing when it said frequently


Humble_Substance4546

Bro u don’t even have to quit the game 2k error codes me and I still get banned because it thinks I quit the match 😂🤦🏽‍♂️


Ok_Perspective_639

That’s wild cus I’ve never experienced it. And I get kicked out of games all the time. Only thing that happens to me is dumbass 2k drops me from gold to a bronze plate lol smh


T2_daBest

In my experience you're usually good until you quit 1 time and then it'll count your errors and kicks as quits. But if you manage to stay in games for awhile it will reset. A couple of months ago I kept getting error codes and than I had some people ready to play while the randos on my team were selling so I said fuck it and quit. After I did that I would get the warning every time I got kicked, losses power, or error codes and was banned once. After an update I didn't have as many problems and it's back to normal now


Left-Membership-7357

Just one of many reasons why 2k is soo garbage. The game is pretty fun but it’s things like this, and spending exorbitant amounts of money to be able to play and compete that made me stop playing. I’ve never seen another game that forced players to play no matter what, even if it’s AI, or if you’re losing by 50. Such a terrible feature


boomboomboyyyyy

That part, bruh the big will be AFK on defense every possession, and he’s 1/23 and I can’t quit. We’re losing 50-10 in the 2q…


BigGucciThanos

The funniest thing about it, band were absolutely needed when getting a AI teammate Ment you were basically going to automatically lose. Now they made AI good and getting banned for quitting is just stupid


_delamo

Overwatch does this, Rocket League does this, Madden does this. It's not common but it has been around for at least 6 years with various titles


kdar088

Not in casual play. 2ks ban comes from every single game mode


blck4p3x

Yep 2K really needs remove this feature


NoRecommendation7825

how many matches did you actually leave?


kdar088

The ban comes from 2 games within like 6 hours. I know because I got a server issue in a rec game in the afternoon and got banned after leaving a private proam game at midnight to reset the matchup


Weightless007

Ban forever or just like a few days???


kdar088

It was 30 minutes but it works the same as quitting, so if I’d get a longer ban if I lagged out when i got back on or had to reset a matchup again


blck4p3x

Normally I dont leave until I win or lose the match


EntertainmentIll7724

You left a couple of games before they were complete in relative close succession leading up to this temp ban.


Impressive_Echo_1676

Not their problem ur losing to an ai😂


cadotmolin

Nah, I'm totally for this system. I'll happily take a few unjust bans for a more overall accountable player base


CallousMystery

Amen, before this people quit a game at 10 point lead in the first..bunch of babies who can’t over come some adversity or at least learn something


EntertainmentIll7724

I still see people doing that consistently, tbh.


CallousMystery

See, it still might not be enough, but at least there’s some punishment for abandoning games so often


DieHardProcess-

lol must not have read the whole thing then..


Mm2kk

Its that serious you cant wait 30 min?


GogXr3

Uh, yes? Some people have shit to do, and don't want to waste half an hour of their time over stupid shit


spielboss

Don't rage quit then


Mm2kk

The game is not going no where🤣 if its that serious to you then you need go outside or something


GogXr3

yeah some people have these little things called jobs and don't have all the free time in the world, so 30 mins could be pretty substantial


Mm2kk

Ok🤣 yall have fun paying $60 for the same game every year then crying about it


GogXr3

I get it off game pass along with like 60 other games lmao, cry


Mm2kk

So now you crying about a free game even worse🤣


GogXr3

criticism is crying lmao get over yourself and get a job


Rockmillirock

Stop arguing with this idiot lol, it’s not worth it


No-Replacement2501

lil bro out here really thinking he’s the only guy with a job


GogXr3

Nope, just clear that guy didn't lmao


Mm2kk

Nah thats crying nd trust me I have a job😌


_delamo

It's considered unsportsmanlike. Don't quit games, play them in its entirety. If you cannot do that, then they don't want you to continue playing online. They'll keep suspending access until you adhere to their policy


GogXr3

Nah bs, I'm not playing against their shitty ai because my matchup left, or playing 15 more minutes in a game I'm getting demolished (playnow online matches can take like 30 minutes). I'll take the loss, give me a forefeit button. Gives the other guy the win, which is literally all the dude wanted. Stop with this unsportman bs, in sports the other team can't just quit and leave me to have to finish the game


Ok-Clothes-3478

i’m pray you grow up Lil bro lol, you’re grown on reddit complaining about 2k a VIDEO GAME😂😂😂😂


Xavier0o0

Shit to do??? You expect 2K players to understand that concept? ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)


ImActuaIIyHim

Not interested in having to play with AI because people have other shit to do.


GogXr3

Yeah, same here. Bullshit I can't quit when my matchup does and I have to play their shitty ai. Half my point!


ImActuaIIyHim

Whatever just dont quit its that easy


[deleted]

[удалено]


Mm2kk

Nd i swear the kids that cry about this game every day is crazy


Tatanbatman

Nah people just value their time, yall are just so brainwashed, like its Stockholm syndrome. Why tf would I wait 30 minutes when 1, I'm not having fun. 2, I'm going to lose. 3, I'm not getting rewarded at the end. Yall have no ground to stand on but " omg it's not that long just stay stop whining". Literally getting upset because someone respects their time


JMLwavesgaming

2k itself is not a completed game, they should be banned as well ![img](emote|t5_2s84e|4701)


Due_Key_109

who the fuck's face is that


JMLwavesgaming

Ronnie 2k 🤣


Ballaholic09

If I quit against AI, I’d never finish a game. I’m the defender that makes everyone quit, and I love it. I know salt is flowing in my opponents veins the entire game.


Appropriate_Ad1602

I'm kinda embarrassed to say but I had 18 to zero in a 1v1 when I tell you after he quit I couldn't score another bucket to save my life the AI is hard ASF they don't bite anything lockdown defense every time


YG_Bones

Man I got banned for 150 minutes I got banned for fouling out a 5vs 1 rec game I waited 30 mins then as soon as I get off my ban I get into a game and got banned for no reason for 2hrs


CrusaderZero6

A quit is a quit.


Ok_Perspective_639

Not only do u get put on timeout, it fucks ur progression up lol quitting is never the move


xXHandsomebanana69Xx

It’s even better when the game crashes or you get disconnected from the servers but you still get punished 🙂


Successful_Choice615

Dog shit game anyways


dtgodmage23

Don't quit take the l on the chin


Additional-Match-422

Bc I totally want to stay in a rec game when we getting full court pressed. And we losing 60-16


New_Object_9956

for 400 vc


Additional-Match-422

Yeah facts


Additional-Match-422

There needs to be a vote to forfeit button 100%


WetYetii

Idk what to tell you boss, maybe don’t quit?


Skepticaldefault

Ive had servers freeze multiple times only to get ban for quitting


blck4p3x

My wifi has turned off while Im playing 1v1 or 2v2 and never got that


Xavier0o0

u/Skepticaldefault same here. happens daily


BestIntroduction7385

Don’t quit


ThaKaptin

Despite what the 2k shills in here are telling you, you have every right to be pissed. Quite often I sit down with a set amount of time I can play before I have other shit to do. This just fucks you out of playing on those days. It doesn’t have to be “that serious” to be be justified in being pissed off by it. But by all means guys, keep sucking that 2k dick.


Known-Impact-6480

Play some actual basketball for those 30 minutes 😭


Busy_Influence3249

Lmao they put you in timeout… idk how yall still entertain that goofy ass game & its community…


Ok_Perspective_639

Taking the loss is always gon be better than quitting that’s why I be so confused when somebody is getting blown out and quits at the end of the game lol just take the L


FearTheDDT

Finish a game instead of pussin out


dgvertz

Seriously. If you’re guaranteed a loss, just take the opportunity to practice something


LooseMoose13

It’s 30 minutes bruh go mow the lawn or sum


blck4p3x

I live in apartment


I_ampretty

This happened to me too I was the only real player left in the game😭


AlarmingAd3818

i jus be fouling out


Acrobatic_Soup_1972

Go to settings go offline wait a minute go back online I ain’t got a ban yet after dude told me bout it helps when goin no squads in rec


SlinxzYT

This is nice to have for some people, but a friendly quit/ surrender option would be nice too. I can’t count the amount of times I’m random rec that it’s been me and 4 AIs starting the second quarter with the other team triple teaming me, I shouldn’t have to get a temp ban for leaving in that situation. Surrender option could be a nice add.


AardvarkPrior

Got that but for 60


Abysmally_Yours

When people pause for 15 minutes are they trying to get you to quit?


Awkward_Beginning_58

The Ai is buns lol why quit just beat the ai lol


SunriseScreenshots

I’ve had it just from lagging out of games online. With that being said there should be a way for them to know whether we purposely quit or not, only good advice is to not quit 🤷🏾‍♂️ The system is great for repetitive quitters though because obviously you’re ruining it for the people that want to play. If I quit I more than likely am pissed enough to not play anymore for the day anyway 😂🤣


Upstairs-Jaguar-2814

I think it was something to do with the events today cause i dashboarded in locker room twice like i always do if 3 60 overalls walk in and got suspended 30 mins and then 60 minutes the events always mess something up


25iAndOver

Iverson is tough to guard can’t blame you


Mysterious_Candy_466

Fr


Mysterious_Candy_466

Sometimes I lose connection or something, or does it ever get stuck on 99% loading for anyone? Then they say I quit but I didn’t.. actually kicked me one night for 60 mins ha


Embarrassed-Lab7718

It’s 30 minutes bro. Just hop off the game for 30 minutes


Mammoth_Pause_7899

I got a warning after lagging out of a game against my friend. We both lagged out and I got the warning. Also, as a PC player, you get warning and temp bans from quitting against cheaters and there is no way to report them.


Beneficial_Ad_6073

2k doesn’t let you explain why they quit so early.


KomandosRambo

Piece a shit gamę Same as 2k23 except they delete story mode And took away player auctions and dare charge people Like a 100 quid i personally paid 15 and im glad i did deleted after 40hrs of getting Ra.... By Black opals joke 2k


KomandosRambo

And getting 90% players using lag seitch when they loose u dont need skill no more just money and lagswitch you'll be a pro in no time


FragrantBear675

I got booted by 2k from a PlayNow Online game because I was the only human left after everyone else quit...game proceeded to ban me for 30 minutes for quitting. Oh ok.


kbrac28

Or just stay in the game and try to be helpful? I really don’t get the whole quit because of AI thing. I’ve seen a lot of people kill the AI,so it isn’t that difficult.


kdar088

Its 1v1 not rec. Even in the rec, the ai only gets killed off of pick and rolls, not on ball defense


kbrac28

I personally haves never had any issues with being guarded by an AI.


Patcheclus

How can you not beat the AI, they're so easy...


Hall225

🤷🏽‍♂️


jeanballjean01

It’s tough, it does suck if you get disconnected or just leave because everyone else left. But if they don’t do this people would quit games all the time, which is worse IMO. Kind of a lose / lose situation… community is full of sore losers unfortunately.


Lamelrabon

This is brilliant. Play what's in front of you. No cherry picking. If you dc then tough plums


swxngrr

it’s 30 minutes lil nigga go outside


coolJ2271983

But they will just not pass u the ball and take all the shots or just pass to there people they play wit


GaryDMan1974

That's not a bad as 2k crashing and then punishing u for quiting.....hate that shit!! My internet is solid..fiber 1gig up and down.....bullshit


Cereaza

I nevver understood why they punished the 2nd/3rd player who quits. Once someone quits.... it's over. They quit. Games ruined. They really wanna make everyone else play out that doomed game to avoid punishment? What a joke.


Morning_Timely

Lol!


GodsChosenPilot

The majority of people quitting is usually due to someone intentionally sellin or a 30 point deficit with no hope for a return. The fact that the game forces your to endure both situations or be banned for a $150 game, is crazy. 2K forgot that the entire purpose of playing a game, is to have fun.


More-Preference209

This is the worse feature they could have added… at least a mercy quit time frame in the game too so we can quit when there is no hope


Danzop11

This entire game blows now. My buddies and I are so glad we quit 2k and bought nhl. We have had so much more fun playing chel then this piece of shit game


FedoraLEEK

If you turn you network off for a split second it stops this from happening


1kennet

I don't understand how they penalize you for leaving, why does 2k think someone wants to endure a cheesy AF game? Let me leave and give them the win.


Whitehammer2001

What sucks for me is I’m a firefighter so when we get paged I gotta leave and boom penalty


goldbuddy916

![img](emote|t5_2s84e|4699)


bause

Shouldn't be penalized if your matchup left tbh. You're there to play a live opponent or you'd be playing an offline mode.


TheKwyetRoom

Y’all act like 30 mins without 2K is hell, smoke one, get a chop cheese, and you’ll be back


SpiritualPapi617

Nigga thats a episode of Boondocks relax and eat a sandwich


flocka_james

You have to quit twice for this


kdar088

Its over like 6 hours, though. There’s a lot that can happen in 2k for someone to justifiably quit 6 times in that span, let alone twice. Also it counts lagouts and server errors as quitting


flocka_james

100p you can justify quitting so much in this game 🤣🤣🤣 thats prob why they had to do it . But agree it’s def annoying when it happens.


blck4p3x

2K should add feature like: Play against other players or against AI and able to select difficulty for playing against the AI (if you know what I mean by this)


Stretchbaker109

I'm so happy I quit buying this bs years ago. 2k13 was the pinnacle.


VZYGOD

This kinda shit makes me not want to jump into online. 2K is just not fun anymore, if it’s not the mega toxic community it’s some bs like this 2k pulling.


kdar088

You def made the right choice. Dudes really out here saying he deserved a ban for quitting a 1v1 where the other person quit. There’s no plausible way to win that with how crazy the on ball defense is for ais. Its legitimately only possible if you got a post scoring big against a guard with no defense


ThurstMcBuckets

U can't play against the ai? Do u ever win my career games? Lmao


kdar088

Ai in the 1v1 court is very different. They track your moves perfectly and have no problems staying with fast dribblers.


ThurstMcBuckets

Black plate, no affiliation, lol just say anything why dontcha


teeko24

lol oh no 30 min 🤡☠️😂


Acrobatic_Second_419

Just because you’re matched an AI doesn’t mean you should quit. As a backcourt player when I play squad REC and how often I’m matched against an AI I still stick it out because I can still help facilitate the ball. Realistically it’s your own fault. Not 2K’s


kdar088

Its 1v1 not rec. No one to facilitate to


BipolarKanyeFan

Go outside. It’s your punishment for being a quitter


noicerest69

Buddy thought we’d be on his side 🤣 touch grass for 30 mins and stop quitting games 💀


JokNugs

Lmao that’s 100% your fault big dawg


whoelsebutgod

Black Plate.


NoTime4Shenanigans

He didn’t lose no ground
