 Guys, I'm furious. I'm really really really furious today You have to understand where I'm coming from about four or five months ago I became an investor in take two which means I own part of NBA 2k I know I only invested for one share that cost me a hundred thirty dollars, but still I thought it was gonna get me a Seat at the table. I thought it was gonna get me heard. None of that has happened guys I've been getting ignored and I feel like that's not right as a part owner of take two interactive I feel like my voice needs to be heard and Ronnie since I own the company that employs you Pay very close attention because we just want a fun 2k gaming fantastic good quality Gaming experience that's not too much to ask for so today. I'm not asking I am quite possibly demanding especially because just today I decided to double my investment. I Did I bought another share? I have two shares now Which means I definitely should be getting a seat at the table making these decisions now granted I'm only contributing $260 to the 14 billion dollars they have in market cap. Isn't this a democracy shouldn't every voice be heard first off Ronnie what what are y'all doing over there? We're used to it now the park events don't work. How does the rush event work 25% of the time? I don't even want to play the events even though the concept of them is good I'm not gonna like the rotation of events is good But when I hop on either the server's is OD bugging or you can't even participate in it because it's so laggy Which I guess is the same thing when you come to think about it like 20% of the time I'll have a flawless event experience and I'll be like wow Imagine if every other time I played 2k and I was in an event It went just like that and that doesn't even start with all the people that's obviously boosting to try and win these events Most of the time they get away with it. Sometimes they don't but it's like I get it It's about making money But just because you can't profit off of stopping cheaters Doesn't mean you shouldn't do it because when it comes to my team 2k is out there sniping everybody They're quick-scoping everybody if they even hear that you remotely violate in the rules and skimping them of the beautiful wait VC that you should be buying because now I'm an investor guys I'm an investor. I need the stock price to go up so that my portfolio can triple. Is there even a reporting feature in this game? It's 2020. God damn it. There's no way to report cheaters Holy Even if there was a way to report cheaters, would you guys hire anybody to look through the reports? Or would you just have it there for show? I'm not sure Ronnie. I'm talking specifically to you today, bud Pay attention, man. The server is horrible. Are we gonna do something about that? How is it possible? Do you guys remember the video I made when I played on the Google stadia the first week? it's an Dreaming platform and it had fantastic latency no server issues all of a sudden the next time I hop on a week later It's it went to do it's unplayable. I mean what it felt like I was running through molasses We all know the server stuff is not hard to solve it literally just costs money It's not like the technology doesn't exist. It's just expensive and for 2k They don't actively profit from good servers because if you think about it servers is really nothing that ever gets Gratitude I've never been playing a game and went wow actually. I think this game has really good servers It's one of those things you only really notice when it's doing a horrible job That doesn't mean you shouldn't address it nobody really notices a UI unless the UI is horrible That's most things in life and the servers goes hand-in-hand with Optimization I want to talk to the guys specifically are you watching this video who port the game to different platforms? specifically to you What are you guys doing to optimize this game because you're doing a horrible job? You you would think like you're loading into San Andreas sometimes How is it possible that walking around the neighborhood I could be skipping? How is it possible that if I'm playing a rush event? I get kicked out at the end of every game and there's solutions to all of this That's the thing if you want better performance in the game Give us an opportunity to blur out all the nonsense when we're playing in the park when you're playing on PC For example, let's say you don't have a good PC and you're playing Minecraft or any other game You can just reduce the focal length so that anything in the distance is blurred out So your PC can perform better. It's not hard to give us an option like that But for some reason it's not done And I think the reason is is because there's billboards. There's advertisements. So if they're blurring those out, they're losing money Well, then you have to optimize it better like it's one or the other either the game is optimized properly So you don't need to do that or give us the option to do that because it's not optimized properly But when we don't get neither of those you hop in games and you're like What kind of horrible experience is this on the sidecourts especially and that's if you have a ps4 pro If you have a regular ps4. Well, good luck Bobby and Sally. You don't stand a chance, buddy The next thing I want to speak to real quick and is because I've been doing the series where I play every single 2k And the one glaring thing I've realized is ever since I think we hopped on the ps3 2k used to have a ton of customization on the black top You can play in Egypt or China or at a trucker stop or at Rucker Park You can do all of those things you can play in the night in the day You can play in the rain you can change what the score goes up to one-on-one 5v5 There was infinite options and it was so refreshing. I know nobody really plays black top anymore But maybe that's because they don't try the black top in 2k 20 and maybe for the last decade has had no options for Customization well, then of course nobody's gonna play it That's like if Toyota dropped the car that was fantastic and then they stripped it of the fantastic features And we're confused why nobody's playing it I think black top has a potential to be a mode that people regularly play but not if you don't ever try on it So when I'm playing NBA 2k 4 or 2k 7 and it has all those options. I'm thinking to myself How was it possible? We went backwards. You removed them. Why are you removing things? It doesn't make any sense Stop removing things never again remove things unless there's a benefit And don't do that where you bring it back seven years later and rebrand it to something else Can we shut down 2k 18 early for no reason? It was just a horrible game and I want to see it go down in flames these beautiful Velvet do rags cost me three dollars each on Amazon So then how in the Does it cost five dollars on 2k? What planet are we living on where the video game is more expensive than the real life? It's virtual I can't really use it. I'm flabbergasted. I'm truly truly flabbergasted guys 2k will drop like this Very dope fit right and guys trust me I know all about style which is why I have my own merch line link in the description But it's like $40,000 for like the shirt in the pants. I meant to say VC Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if in a few years it was dollars. It's like damn y'all are coming out with good content when it comes to Aesthetics clothes y'all actively dropping stuff and I and you have something to benefit here financially So in the start of 2k 20, one of the things I was really excited about was the fact that you actually earn more VC Surprisingly, it's not as hard as it was in previous years to rack up VC Man, I even tweeted about that. I was so happy that that was a case and then what do you know? It just turns out that everything is more expensive like it's virtual inflation If you go to swags with 5k VC I don't think you could actually walk out of there with anything that doesn't look like a brown shirt should be wearing it So then it's like you don't want to look like that You're gonna spend the money to look like a better player Especially because you might not get games if people think you're a bum So there is an incentive to purchase these clothes even if you don't care about the aesthetics because it'll make you more Appealant to play with if you don't have a group of three to play with on the playground. So that's an interesting situation I get some it has to be exclusive some stuff has to be hard to get because that's its value Otherwise, it wouldn't be worth anything. We get that you guys hear me say it all the time I could sit here on this video and just repeat the same three words Hire more devs and it would really solve every problem and it's not like they don't know that that would solve every problem It's just expensive to do that So even when you make a ton of profits every single year off the game just Investing in more people so that the game comes out Paulers so that the game comes out with more content is apparently Unreasonable imagine if there was a case where While 2k20 is out the development team is still working on 2k20 and they're not giving up on it for the next game Meanwhile, there's a second dev team working on the next game. That's very common in the gaming industry In fact, if I'm not mistaken call of duty does it in three year cycles? So there's three different teams so you have three years to come out with your teams call of duty But that's a bad example because that game sucks too activation will promise I know we're not going to do micro transactions It's your guys and then they'll just bamboozle everybody three months in and I'm not falling for the trap anymore I'm not buying that these are hard things to do and I get that it's easy to say them And it's way more harder to get a talented second dev team That's hard to do because most of them are already working for other dev teams But I always recommend poaching developers I'm not lying either. I would just go to like CD project red and naughty dog and you know rock star and hey guys John John come over here, man. We're gonna pay you more money Of course John's gonna come over are you crazy more money? Everybody loves money, especially Ronnie Especially money. He's one of the number one guys when it comes to money I don't think that's ever gonna happen think about it 2k is in a position where they're making a ton of money Every year so they will be Absolute lunatics to mess with the formula until something doesn't work I'm not mistaken 2k 19 perform better in terms of sales in 2k 20, but not by much 2k 20 was still a good performing game So why would they change anything like let's say I dropped the video in the video did fantastic in my mind People want to see more of that video then what kind of human being would I be if I just dropped this whole another different kind of video? Knowing that this is the one that did well that people want to see I get why they won't change things But I can't help but think that 2k 20 gives me a lot of 2k 13 vibes Both games were the final game that released solely on the last generation consoles and 2k 13 at first looked Incredible, but then when you got a chance to play the game the gameplay just felt worse way worse than it did in previous years Because 2k 19 had issues We know that the shotgun test system the meta was asked everybody was a seven foot big man But still that game was way more fun to me than 2k 20 in in like a week or so I'm gonna start playing pro I'm on 2k 20 just to see what changes because if you guys remember in 2k 18 When I got sick of the playground, what did I do? I went on pro I mean I had a blast That's probably the most fun I had playing 2k in a very long time and it was on 2k 18 like this doesn't make any sense So that's what I'm gonna try and do but meanwhile here I am making this connection guys 2k 13 2k 20 is the last game solely dropped on those consoles Both have in my opinion big gameplay flaws and both are just like Not as fun to play as the ones that came before them. I want my voice to be heard. Can you hear me Ronnie? Look, I'm an investor. I have two shares in your company. Thank you guys I think you've made me like a total of three dollars and fifty cents so far I'm definitely gonna use that to buy myself a nice steak and shake garlic steak burger psych. I'm being healthy guys Oh follow my Instagram. I'm doing all my weight loss updates on there, and I'm not gonna lie Losing a lot of weight. You might not be able to tell in the video because you only see my upper body I'll have you know that my lower body is where I look very thick and beautiful I'm an investor and take two. All right. I want to seat at the table when y'all have your quarterly meetings I want to be there for the reports. Otherwise, what good is it? Why am I investing in this company? Why am I a part owner? Hey, look, there's videos on the screen, right? Um, I'm not gonna lie to you This could have been a three-second video where I just said hire more devs and it really would have solved all the issues But you have to be more detailed here on YouTube because I've tried the other method and it doesn't work guys I'll catch you guys in the next video probably tomorrow or the day after it may be like a week or so I might I might catch you guys in 2021 later
