WAIT... You have to go to MyTeam Mode to buy the golden box? What's golden box? Does it always give you something that's worth 10000+? How do you sell stuff?

I really don't see the problem.

If you want incentive to play My Player...well here ya go.

Why do you expect to unlock everything in the 1st week of release?

Why care if someone used real $$ to buy VC? Yeah, it's a shortcut, but that option remains there for you and it still is OPTIONAL.

Accessories for your my player IS fluff.

My Team IS fluff (this mode didn't even exist b4 2K13).


I will take this new system over the straight up hackers who would be a 99 overall on day 1 of release or the 40 ft giants my players who corrupted crew and pickup.

You'd make a great EA exec.

You know, there used to be a time when Madden would sell 7+ million copies easy and now, after years of not listening to their customers, it struggles to break the 4 million barrier across two online enabled platforms. M13 hasn't even hit the 1 million mark on the PS3 yet. When consumers complain, it's in every companies best interest to listen.

If you can afford to spend a little extra cash and buy VC, more power to you. And I actually have too. But I don't want to be forced into it...If i want to instead play the game and earn VC the old fashioned way for a little while, I want it to be a legitimate method.

Earning VC by playing is not efficient or feasible at all at this point. That's where my concern is imo. I don't hate all of you people that have extra money, not enough time and thus you bought some VC. I hate the fact the 2k has made buying VC with real money a primary source of VC, and earning it the alternative, when it should be the other way around.

Who's forcing you into it? How about play the game longer than a week. I mean you're saying it's not a feasible method to do it the old fashioned way but that's because you're expecting to have everything available now instead of realizing "hey, I'm gonna be playing this game all year so there'll be plenty of time to rack up VC."

Re: Stop Buying Virtual Currency, please

My biggest beef with VC is that they force players to play against players who buy VC for their teams. Its plain unfair, atleast give us an option to search for other players who don't buy VC to stack their teams.

As for VC itself, it is what it is, a cash grab. But you don't have to purchase it to play, you can earn it in game.

I don't mind VC in principle, I have a problem with them giving the option to buy it. Well not necessarily the option to buy, but more in the sense that they allow peeps who boost their squads by buying VC to play against non boosters.

Please 2k keep payers separate from non payers of VC.

You keep thinking that kid. Doesn't change anything. If you need to come at me, there's a PM function to continue it. I'm not going to hijack this discussion to put you in your place. I've made my position clear, and that's it.
