Some of you do know that we brought this on ourselves...with 2k removing lobbies...
Because of the constant
1) "ready to play" spamming
2) league spamming
3) cursing (adding spaces to get it pass the system)
4) name calling
5) people just sitting and not playing at all
6) online gangsters (racist and others hiding behind a gamertag)
7) "Gamersaloon" gettiing a hold of gamertags to spam us
8) the constant crying about a so-called screwed up "rating system"
Do you really think they weren't going to do something about it sooner or later:confused:. Now we are stuck playing "Quick Games" against whoever just to play a game.
Now some of you got what you ask for...ARE YOU HAPPY NOW???

you're speaking too soon. if you actually connected to 2k online and browse through the different sections, 2k has actually developed a rating system, something similar to what 2k8 had. there's gotta be a reason for this 2k rating system. there's no use for it if there's no lobbies and i don't think 2k would implement something that has no purpose. just have some patience!

Are you talking about the 2K points...if so thats all about you're overall rank and not feedback that people gave you. I don't care too much about rank. I prefer to find a game against someone that is not going to be loophole abusive, ya know. But with this system you have little to no way at all to do so.

i know what you're talking about points. but this is an actual rating system. you get to view how you rated other players and what players have rated you. very similar to 2k8. if you think about it, why would 2k include this feature if they didn't have plans on putting lobbies?

From my understanding of the points (I could be wrong but from what I noticed).
You gain points if you win...how many points is depending on:
1) What team you played with
2) What team your opponent played with
3) The score
4) Your overall 2K rank
5) Your opponent overall rank
6) Your win streak
You lose point if you lose...how many points is depending on the same as above...
This is not a feedback system...and yes they may add lobbies later (but I doubt it).
Just to note: I think they added this system so people will have a reason to play and not feel like the games has no purpose. Its all part of the "2K Team" garbage. The "2K Team" is 2K's substitution for lobbies.
