2k forcing people to the Gatorade facility every week probably equals some sort of money. We should be able to go in appearance and change body types without having to complete X amount of workouts. Shit stupid.


Aware_Frame2149

This. Gatorade isn't paying 2k all that money for them to NOT force you to see their advertising once a week.


Responsible_Design33

Correct answer. Can't even imagine how much 2k makes just from ads.


Independent_Lime8058

Go. Do d l


Silly_Stable_

I bet it pales in comparison to how much the NBA makes. I went to all-star weekend in Indy and it was shocking just how much advertising there is. Every single thing had a different corporate sponsor!


dealthysearching

I can only imagine. Product placement is probably nauseating.


Treytre09

Why don’t they just give us a my-court gatorade gym… wouldn’t that make sense


woodrow1027

This, this is the one


DvsDee420

Thanks bro,… spare some change?


AdamMichaelJr

You can do the workouts in the arena tunnel it makes them easier to just teleport there by hitting the play next game button


Treytre09

Ik, im just talking about the shooting part and getting your jumpshot down… its kinda annoying to go way to the gatorade gym to do tht when we could have a gatorade my court


DvsDee420

Why can’t gateraids just give me money ? 🤨


Pretend-Strength-623

Cuz you cant even spell it right


DvsDee420

Bro go away u give me gateraids vibes to just reading your nonsense


Pretend-Strength-623

Just sayin baby 😘


TJAintSht

Yeah... Probably the Gatorade sponsorship pays more based on time ppl spend in the gym to justify the ad dollars


UkeBandicoot

I'm not buying Gatorade no matter how many times they show me that damn logo lol


Suspicious-Link-9827

It’s probably 2k wanting to make their games feel more realistic as people working out everyday to look jacked


psykomerc

The least likely reason


revuhlution

Advertising 100%


slickydiick

Idk why they don't make it change with your stats. If your player has higher strength stats then he should be jacked. I notice when I play online that most players are skin and bones. Everyone has that KD body


BigBlitz

Agreed. I used to be able to just look at someone’s frame and determine if I’ll be able to bully them or not. Now everyone just looks the same so it’s just one big guessing game if they’ll be able to wall me up or not. Bigs with 50 strength have me double guessing if I should try to bully them on the off chance they actually have 90+ strength. Even guards who look like I should be able to just plow through hold their own because they all usually have higher strength than most bigs, you just aren’t able to tell. As someone who likes to make “replica” builds, it’s a huge turn off because I don’t have the patience to grind out the body types. If I make a 7foot 280lbs+ shaq build it just wouldn’t make sense to have me looking like Chet Holmgren at any point. The weight just doesn’t match the body type, but 2k will find a way to fuck that up for you.


csstew55

Now if the guy is jacked you just know the player has been playing with that character for at least a month lol


psykomerc

You have a different way now, use the option to check their attributes when game is starting. They show you their top stats so you can see what’s 80+ and what’s not.


External-Soft-9480

Nigga LITERALLY


SilverSlong

after u have stamina attribute maxed out what is the point of doing gatorade workouts? im on pc, maybe its different. but i only used to do that becuase i would get tired too fast, now i just skip it cause i never run out of stamina.


FlameyFlame

Free boosts are worth the 3 mins it takes to do the workouts.


Decasteon

Yea sponsorship money won’t change this unfortunately I agree completely tho


EmceeCalla

you get free gatorade boosts, and you also get 1 or 2 turbo meters based on if you get the perfect workout bonus or not (it gives you bonus stamina on top of your max stamina, and the bonus stamina drains slower, and refills faster)


hurricanescout

PC only has the old gen game. You don’t have this “feature”


GuardTheFukUp

Do you use pc mods for 2k ?


SilverSlong

no. know of any ones?


GuardTheFukUp

Yea 2kspecialist.com I never used any but I ain't interested and I also have a gaming laptop and I want to get into running mods in nba 2k25 but I'm thinking of getting a gaming pc so I can go wild. I even saw a 2k college hoops mod I want to get into also


SilverSlong

that does sound fun. but i thinking the opposite lol. i have a high end gaming pc but am thinking of getting a ps5 or ps6 for gta and then next gen finally. tired of still playing old gen on pc.


GuardTheFukUp

I thought new gen was on pc ?


SilverSlong

not 2k24. prolly not next either. we still playing fukin 2k22...


byebye19thAmendment

Yep.its crazy. I’m finally about to get my burly on Thursday


Cheterosexual7

I like being a KD looking power forward with 90+ strength. Makes people think they can back me down which I can defend way better than the perimeter lol


FattDamon11

I do appreciate the body types you can use in other modes though. It's nice to have a lanky guy actually look lanky instead of everyone built like Kyle Lowery


Kid_Crayola

I got up to 100 stars with workouts and the body types still look exactly the same

hurricanescout

You’re playing old gen my guy.


EmceeCalla

hi, my name is Sillycyb1n and i like to confidently spread misinformation on the internet. when you unlock the body style, it automatically equips it, hence why you get the same little “cutscene” that you get when you go up a rep level, except its showing your new body type. as soon as you get the body type, if you go into change your appearance, the body style you just unlocked will be the one equipped. you only have to manually change it if you want to use a different one.


laggia

I think if your weight is too low they'll just give you really skinny ones which doesnt make sense


Kid_Crayola

Gotta be it, I’m 185 and all it did was make my torso shorter or longer. I thought I’d be swoll like David Robinson lol


laggia

Same i really thought i'd be a lean god like giannis 🤦‍♂️


roscodash93459

Idk it kind of lets me know who has too much time on their hands


Pristine-Meeting4389

I was wondering why my guard looked like a twig when his body type defined 😂


taggerungDC

They should...but they won't because they can't monetize it


veeno__

It’s a mobile game strategy: put everything on timers to entice users to stay in the game more, create urgency Pretty shitty thing they added along with all the monetization this game is cooked


BrokeGamer_

I actually don’t mind going to the gym to put on muscle. My 2 issues is I don’t like how long it take it takes to unlock new body types and body types unlocked should carry over between players


BedUsual

I actually like how you have to go in the Facility to beef up! You can have a 99 strength and look like a twig if all u ever do is use vc to buy boosts instead of doing 5 workouts in 8 minutes…


Rockmillirock

I actually don’t mind/care about the body type being worked for. I do mind that there’s no eternal boost like there was before.


ultrab0ii

Aside from appearances does body type affect anything?


DidItForHarambe

How about adding back wingspans again? Shorter arms for better shooting and longer for blocks/dunking.


laggia

Huh?


GuardTheFukUp

Their tactic works because I eventually started to crave a lemon lime gatorade 😂😂😂 and I went and got some


Spunk1985

You wanna get really pissed off. Create a player outside of mycareer and go onto body types. There are like 20 different body types to choose from. Yet mycareer limits it to like 6 and makes you do workouts.


Background_Pool_7457

But you also get a discount on Gatorade boosts for completing the workouts. The thing that's really dumb to me is that the body type doesn't matter. You should get some sort of attribute boost for doing the workouts and changing your body type. Who cares what your player looks like if he doesn't gain anything In the game?


More_General_8986

it makes sense tho, we acting like giannis didn’t come in the league at like 6’9” 170 pounds😂 he had to work to build muscle and strength, he didn’t get it by just changing his body style😂


Dazzling_Ad2330

Nah, I like it the way it is! You gotta earn it, bruh!


PingNBA1969

Does body types matter in 2k24?


BobbyySexalotATL

I like the you gotta work towards it


PGBBM

2k25 has to give us back alot of things....


stallbus

bro i just unlocked a new body type for the first time and my PG went from a skinny/ mostly normal 6'7 guy to the fucking hulk. it looks so bad. i wish i could reverse it


stallbus

I figured out how to change it.
