I build something almost every day. Websites, tools, bots, random ideas. Most of the actual work never makes it to X. You see what shipped. You don’t see the wrong turns, deleted features, broken fixes or old code I reused. I’m gonna start sharing that part too.

2K has the money. The developers. The technology. The resources. So why is cheating still such a massive problem? We’re TWO WEEKS into developing NATION, a community-built basketball gaming project, and we’ve already detected 11 cheaters. How? Our launcher detects known cheat tools like Cheat Engine, WeMod, and trainers. Our servers inspect uploaded saves for manipulated badges. Every case gets three separate staff reviews before enforcement. And we’re just getting started. 2K has had years and massive resources to tackle this. Players are still dealing with cheating while spending real money on VC and builds. At what point do we stop accepting this? Is cheating really that hard to fight, or has protecting competitive integrity just not been enough of a priority?

Been traveling and relocating these past few days and trying to keep up with development work at the same time. Crazy how far we’ve come with AI and cloud agents. I haven’t fallen behind on a single project or production task. Now I just need my internet installed today. Been running off my hotspot for 6 days straight. That phone bill is gonna be INSANE 🀣

Big life update. I’m officially relocating from Virginia to Texas today. I’ll be stepping away from consultations, new development work, and new orders while I get moved in and settled. For existing clients, any outstanding invoices are still expected to be paid according to their original terms. Appreciate everyone’s patience and support. Got a lot planned for this next chapter. Just need a little time to get everything situated. Texas, here we come 🀝

Old games running in a browser are cool. But zoom out. I’ve been saying 2027–28 would be the turning point for AI-assisted game development, reverse engineering and reviving older games. It’s only 2026, and the shift is already happening. What we’re building with Nation is just one piece of something much bigger than 2K.

With all the new technology coming out people should be grateful and thankful for others saving the gaming community, the gaming community is cooked and sad to say but the older engines they ran back then are way better than this ai bullshit

Replying to @BlaqKobra
This is incorrect The initial version of 2K design principles was to make the fame fun first and realistic second. That’s why we broke out from the 8 other basketball games that were out in 1999 The concept was β€œeasy to pick up, but hard to master” That concept lasted for about 10 to 15 years. But we’re losing recipes. And since aggressive monetization and with the folks at VC are retiring, the game has lost its soul πŸ€·πŸΎβ€β™‚οΈ

Using FiveM as proof that private servers are β€œ100% legal” is hilarious 😭 Cfx.re/FiveM was acquired by Rockstar. Rockstar and 2K are both under Take-Two. FiveM is authorized. That doesn’t prove IP owners can’t shut private servers down.
Also btw, 2K cannot legally shut down NBA 2K17 or any other previous games and that rumor that’s being floating around that take two interactive is false. It is 100% legal to create your own servers on nearly any game that’s on PC, from call of duty, to fivem, to anything.

And I’m saying this as somebody who’s actually ran RuneScape private servers before πŸ˜‚ I’m all for preservation. I WANT old 2Ks online.

Well this is a first πŸ˜‚ Built a full (peptides/steroids) private research commerce/community platform for a client. Finished it, tested it, got it running on staging… then they ghosted before final handoff. So I’m selling the whole thing cheap instead of letting it sit. $2K OBO. Reply or DM me if you’re serious.

This isn’t a template either. Member accounts + approvals Drops/group buys + live MOQ Direct kits + singles Orders + shipping Test Lab / COAs Memberships + referrals Built-in community/chat Support + notifications Full admin/CMS + staff roles Audit logs, backups + deployment tooling Full source code. Can be white-labeled.

They’re gonna keep doing it because this is the business model now. Take-Two’s recurrent spending was 26% of revenue in FY2017. FY2026: 78%. 2K27 is $70, then sells VC up to $150 + $10/$20 passes with XP boosts/level skips. The grind is part of the monetization now.
Wait till y’all find out the only animation you really grinding for is patty at V3. There is no other animations in the β€œlarge collection” of animations they promised. So heat check sucks, 3 badge load outs. Some training drills boost a few caps just to get one animation. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

That’s why I don’t buy the β€œnext year will be different” cycle anymore. I’m not saying the games never improve. They do. I’m saying the incentives changed. When progression, VC, premium reward tracks, XP boosts and level skips all make money, of course the grind keeps coming back.

And people still call it β€œjust cosmetics” or β€œoptional.” They literally sell XP boosts and level skips. You can like 2K and still admit the game is designed around way more than selling you a basketball game once a year.

You don’t have to work for 2K to understand that detection/enforcement systems are not 100% accurate. 2K themselves say they use EAC + behavior-based bans + anti-tampering + player reports. From a developer standpoint, any system combining automated detection, heuristics, reports and human review is going to have edge cases and false positives. That doesn’t mean everybody screaming β€œfalse ban” is innocent. It means β€œ2K banned them, therefore they definitely cheated” is not proof.
No offense to you.. but do you work for 2K? Are you in coding? Cyber security? Gaming development? A detective? Lmao There's plenty of false bans and they are actually lifting them.
