    Wtf 2k!?

    Here I was buying boosts thinking they worked in Walk On as well but I had VC to spare that it doesn't bother me too much.

    On that last part, never had that happen but I like when I get put on a team with a bunch of PGs and SGs up against a team with two C's. Like come on, there's only one C on the practice court beforehand but somehow when another one loads in with neither team filled, the second goes to the team already with a big. I've played the C position as an SG position before, it's ridiculous and then you get destroyed for teammate grade because you can't rebound or stop someone that big in the post.

    I'd like to see them switch up matchmaking next year to be more like teamup/FIFA where you get put in a lobby first and see what the open positions are and then pick from there but you can only pick based upon your first and secondary archetypes to avoid trolls trying to put their C at the PG position or something like that.

        I'd also like some clarification on if boost work in pro am or not. I know it does say in the description that it works in the park and my career games but it also does use one of your boost when you play a pro am game.

          They burn your boost for pro am games but I don't think you actually get the benefits of it. I see absolutely no difference in my player

            Wow throw another one onto the VC scam train. SMH I bet it there was a glitch that let you use boosts without buying them it would damn sure be fixed within the week.

              Boost don't work in pro am but for some odd reason before I found out it don't work, I'll apply a boost to my defense and I'll be a lockdown player for that game. It gives confidence lmao

                lol yeah I always felt like they really helped but I guess it was just placebo. I would bump D and get some blocks or I would up my Shot off Dribble and start hitting pull ups. Guess confidence is more important than your stats [emoji39].

                  If this is true, then i want my VC back because i literally boost all of them for 1200 every walk on and pro am game that I play. HUNDREDS of games!

                  Can anyone confirm this is the case?

                    Lol, good luck with that one.

                    It says on the boost purchase screen "Apply temporary boosts to your attributes. Both MyPark and NBA games count".. Doesn't say anything about Pro-Am or Walk On.

                      So don't take them away when we play walk on?

                        I wouldn't care if they didn't count if they didn't get used. But... right now it's looking mighty suspect that this is happening... one could say they are even robbing you...

                          I don't understand why they would use your boost and then not have it apply. So that means if I was to buy 5 boost to use in mycareer and then I decide I'm gonna play a pro am game I'm gonna lose a boost for no reason.

                            This mode has turned into who can shoot the most corner threes.
