    And still earn VC.
    And Will this be enable to at 2k18?

I play MyTeam more than any other mode, so yes I bought the $150 version, but even if I didn't, maybe I'm a Lakers fan, or just like the color gold. I'm the one who goes to work everyday of the week so if I want to spend my money on that, mind your business?

      It's not necessarily hidden from the community but it is presented in a way that is misleading.

      I understand why you're mad though. You actually bought the $150 version LOL!! and mad that you wasted your money. I get it but bro but he seriously probably just saved a ton of people some money. Take you own advice next time

        they were the same costs as 2k17..

        that would imply vc costs havent gone up in the last 3 years..


        the internet man.....its wild what information it holds...

        The price of the packages is the same but the amounts received is not and the prices for in game items have increased exponentially.

        That is an indirect increase in price by giving you less and charging more.

        It's wild what information is out there if you do more than a basic google search on "VC price".

            except that is 100000% irrelevant to my post because all im talking about is how much VC you get for cash inside the micro transactional purchase of the game...which ratio has not changed i years.

            what you brought up and started talking about has nothing to do with the info im giving to people or how it might change their preorder choice.

            2k charging more for in game items you purchase with VC has nothing to do with how much VC they give you for your real life money or my post.


            its amazing what happens when you actually read and analyze what someone is saying and stay on topic.

            ill give you a metaphor that correlates with what you just did.

            " group of people talking about purchasing single game nfl tickets vs season tickets...and u come in talkin about how they have raised the price of beer and hot dogs at the stadium"

            IRRELEVANT!!


            p.s. 2k16 gave you 75k vc for 20 bucks...same as 2k17.

                  I actually want all the MyPlayer stuff and the VC that comes with the $150 version. I just dont want the MyTeam junk which, as you said, is whats jacking the price up. Hopefully theres no exclusive MyPlayer stuff and I can purchase all the MyPlayer items in the game.

                      I'll admit, I didn't think too deeply into this when I first saw but I did the math and I agree. No reason to get the premium version for me, personally. The packs pretty much are the extra value in these versions, not the VC. I was gonna get the Gold edition, but realized I could just buy the reg version, and buy 450K VC for almost the same cost. I don't care about the clothing, and while I do play myTeam, the freedom of having twice as much VC is better than packs that will let me down 9/10. Again, this is just for me but even as a player who plays all the modes, I'd go with the flexibility option over digital clothing and RNG. Ultimately, you can just buy other clothes and packs with your double VC stash.

                          I don't think that was really his point lol...

                          I think what he was trying to get at was that if you're just looking for the VC, it's more costly to try and buy the Legend Edition than to just buy some VC after getting the game.

                          Either way, the way 2k advertises and uses VC pisses me off anyways. They advertise it during actual games and pretty much all over the place while also putting it in game modes where it has no place like MyGM.

                          Sooner or later they're gonna be forcing us to use VC to scout players in MyLeague lol

                            They can't physically force you to buy VC. You buy because you want to. You definitely aren't required to.
