    Yes, I prefer when they make the code a simple hashtag. They probably try to avoid those since it would be possible to guess some of them since they always give hints to who the code is for. The KD one I guessed would include "pink durantula" but they added 35 and 2k to it. The other problem is that on most phone/tablets, it is difficult to get the hyphen into the code. You have to switch between pages of the keyboard on many devices, which is very time consuming.

      I mean... it'd be impossible to guess something like #SHAQ2KPINKDIESELXMAS, and it would give people not at home or not at their computer an actual chance.

      I was waiting on my phone, and when I saw the tweet with the long code I just said **** it and turned my phone off. It's absolutely impossible to do that on your phone w/o a computer.

        Re: New Pink Diamond Shaq codes

        After trying and failing with the last 3 codes I decided to use my girlfriends phone to get the code and my phone to type it in. This is the fastest way I could possibly think of but still had reached the quantity limit after about 15 seconds. I guess there is not much possibilty of anyone outside mainland USA of getting this as by the time the tweet even reaches the UK it has probably reached limit.

            Yep that would be way better. Just give it to everyone who enters it in the first/first five minute(s) or so.

            LOL, you don't get how the Internet works. I'm from Germany and got Onyx Kobe and Pink Shaq. You need to Spam Refresh on the Twitter-Channel and have NBA2K open already and then just Tab in and have the Code on a 2nd Monitor.

              I'd say less than that if they do time. If they did 5 minutes, literally everyone would get the card and online play would be everyone with the same lineup. A timed code should be about 30-45 seconds if they give hints before. No hints, maybe 2 minutes.

                I think you overestimate the people who camp twitter for these Codes. I bet 98% of all NBA2K Players have never even used a LockerCode at all. Its only the hardcore players who post on this forum for example who do that. I would have no problem if they give these codes out to everyone who was in time. Its not like MyTeam was competetive in any way, so who cares.

                  I agree a time would be good. But 5 minutes would equal the majority of teams on the higher seeds of MT. I'd rather not face the same players every single game.

                    Its one thing for them to go quick but for me, an australian, all of these codes have been released at 3-30am in the morning!
                    what chance does that give people outside the US!?

                    Its very frustrating

                      Unfortunately for people outside the us, you are out of luck. It's a game made by an American company about an American sports league. The codes get released during normal American business hours, and it will likely always be that way.

                        It just limits the content for people outside the US

                          I think 2k has potential to give more reach to its supporters outside the US, the company just doesn't give enough effort. It wasn't until recently with the implementation of the Euroleague teams and the preorder foreign player bonus in Myteam this year that they've shown some attention towards countries outside the US. Unlike FIFA, which is basically a global sports video game, I think 2k is just content and comfortable with promoting its product here locally in the US.

                            Most codes where released at noon in the US and that time is OK for us Europeans too. In my country I got the codes at 8:00 PM - 9:00 PM. Somebody had to be left out, cause the 3 main regions (US,EU, AU&CH) are pretty evenly distanced. I guess they could give one code out of three at early night US so it could be morning over there to you and you could have a chance, but I think it will remain as it is cause US&EU are the two regions the game sells more.

                              Nope. Shaq was released in the Evening in Europe, must have been early morning in America.

                                Nope. Shaq was released at 2 PM on the east coast and 11 AM on the West coast and the midwest regions having times between 11-2. That's business hours.
