    I also think it's somewhat shortsighted. Some seem to be arguing more on principle, similar to the reaction to having to pay $5 for The NBA Combine back in 2K10. The VC issue seems to be compounded because of the server issues. We'll see how the reaction is next year if/when 2K does something regarding the Legends. For all I know VC could help subsidize the inclusion of the Legend content - every year there's the threat that it won't be continued, understandable given no other sports games are doing anything anywhere near as extensive. Imo it'd be the most sensible thing to justify monetizing.

    From what I've read the VC structure could somewhat easily be changed to something more fair (dropping from MyGM, re-pricing items) but there's the "it's not implemented right in it's first year so remove it completely" contingent that doesn't want to have VC in the game in any form. If I were 2K and going to get accused of being like every other game, perhaps they should simply take other games' approach - stop taking the kitchen sink/do everything possible and upgrade as other sports games upgrade on a yearly basis. Pull back and offer less/stop pushing the envelope, and make sure the what's offered works properly.

        The sad part is that half of the people who said no will end up buying the game anyways. As annoyed as I've been with this system, and as much as I would pay for them to get rid of it, I won't lie, I'm going to buy the game. I said it.

        If 2K doesn't get rid of VC next year, I think I will just switch back to Live. I played Live from '04 to '09. I kind of miss those days. Regardless I'm still going to purchase 2K15.

          A lot of you don't understand, VC is the reason the game's so bad right now.

          Forget how overpriced certain things are, how little VC you get for games, etc.

          VC is forcing us to always be online; that's not a problem for me, my internet's fine. 2K's servers are the problem. I really don't mind always being connected but if the game can't hold up with the amount of people playing then you gotta get rid of it.

          I'll admit, I enjoyed Crew back in 2K10 and 11 where you earned skill points and really had to grind to get your player better...but let's be honest people have to good right now so they'll keep buying VC because they want instant satisfaction.

            I dont really have a problem with the VC. I dont think it should be in MyGM tho. I just want them to get servers that arent ****, and improve the game. No more crashes, corrupt saves, and add in the features they took away from us.

              So nah I ain't buying the game on release if they don't change some things up.

              I don't care if the game is amazing and the graphics are beautiful, I'll buy it used just as a "f you".

                VC needs to removed.. this all started when VC was introduced in 2K13. What is the point of the game when you let players cheat, technically its not cheating but you let people get 99 overall with paying. I don't want to play parks or blacktop day 1 and vs against 99 guys.. it's not fair to others who work hard and play the game fairly. Then VC was added to everything in 2K14 such as shoes.. who would want to pay 7K just to wear one shoe?? Not only that they added it to MyGm and charge you VC to change rotations. The game is not fun at all, I am all for them making extra money, but VC should only be in myteam and that is it just like EA does it with ultimate team only. VC has no business being in mycareer, if you want to charge us for myplayer clothes and stuff I am fine with that but I don't want to have to negotiate a contract for myplayer and be paid in 500 VC for 2 years, I rather see a real contract.

                  I seriously don't see a problem with the way VC is handled.

                  I mean, I started a Nets MyGM about two weeks ago. When I started it, I had about 8,000 VC.

                  I've played 7 games, I've used the app to get free VC every day, I've used the free locker codes given out to get more VC, and right now I'm at 40,000 VC, and that's after I spent quite a bit to upgrade my GM.

                  How is VC a problem?

                    because it forces you to have an online connection, I am not even mad at the servers.. lets say this was 2k11 and the servers were down.. we could have played myplayer, association mode, basically everything in the game except the online. With VC we are forced of being online on single player gamemode

                        I'll buy the game, as I did this time, but not VC, as I haven't been doing, because I really haven't needed to. Every game I play I get enough VC generally to get an upgrade, and I'm not really concerned about them anyway.

                          This is the best looking next gen game and it is also the best representation of basketball of course ill be getting it.

                          This game is so good its scary.

                            Nope.
                            I'll buy crappy EA NBA LIVE next year if 2K keeps pulling this VC always online DRM crap.
                            Would return this game if I could, no sense trading it in at this point I've already bought this crap version.

                              also, let me state, I dont mind the VC all that much, does not bother me, some people want to use it fine, I dont also fine.

                              what I cant take, is the need for them to implement the DRM because they are pushing VC so hard...

                              not being able to save MyPlayer and a custom roster file to my local HDD is the last straw for me.. if my internet goes down, which is unlikely, or if, 2k's servers are poor (which is VERY likely) then I wont be able to play my game. thanks 2k for being giant prickely cactus dill holes.
