Re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion

I just dont understand how anyone is upset or shocked by this. Every game works like this lol new year = starting over

Re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion

You'll be on the same level for approximately half an hour. Then everyone gets packs and the free players are left with what, moral values? At least let us take what we worked for, keep all the epics and legends that anyone can just buy. RC's like I said are priceless. I wouldn't even use them to start next year, I'd still go for rares, epics, legends, etc.

Honestly as a free player i dont really care if people pay for the better cards that kind of takes away from the fun of earning them or getting lucky picks. But like u said in half an hour people will fork out there money so why would they compensate anybody that payed on this current one

Re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion

So why not pay then? If everyone who is free pays they will be on that level. Its like ppl think its a badge of honor to say you play free lol you cant hate on ppl who choose to pay. They pay because they want the best cards. Anyone can do it. You just choose not to... that moral values part was funny tho lol

If you can earn the same cards as someone who just went out and bought them, I think that is much more respectable. But hey, I guess you kids these days respect paying to win more than working. Just grab a credit card and go to town, then what's the point of playing? You already have the best players... It's all about the fun for me, all these guys that have put $500 plus in this game are now selling their account for half. Once they got the best cards, they lost interest, whilst most free players continue to play. Just my 2 cents.

Re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion

We had this discussion about spending money on th game in the myteam thread too. It's pointless, believe me. At the end those guys who had an argument whether you should spend money or not just threw insults at each other. I think you should stop it.
And concerning the question if there will be a new app and if we can transfer cards, we can't do anything but wait. They start giving us info about 2k15 this week, maybe they will talk about the accompanying app too.

I dont respect one more then the other. Its just an app nothing more. I honestly hope they make a whole new app clean slate for everyone. This one is getting dry for me cant draft anything to break into my lu anymore and im not paying for anything on this app.

Re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion

I covered that part with, "CD has every right..."

Part of the negotiations is CD determining if it's worth it for them. If they're comfortable predicting that there are spenders lined up to take the place of those they alienate, go for it.

However, if they want to retain the current base of customers, "Sorry about all your cards, but spend more money on our shiny new app" probably won't get it done.

This game was introduced to make 2k a little extra spending money. They obviously didn't invest much into the project since they chose to retain a firm with **** servers that hangs its hat on "Mall Tycoon 5" to create the app.

However, the community surprised the developers when 50 people went Lord of the Flies and decided to blow >$100 to gain an advantage over their fellow players every 2 weeks in Rivals Clash! Surely the game's popularity exceeded all expectations, and I'm sure they've spent all summer planning even more ways to take our money.

Yeah, they probably won't transfer your cards over because they will most likely be obsolete. This game looks like it was designed overnight, and look how much revenue it's generating! Imagine if they made a complete overhaul and actually used more than just four arbitrarily assigned numbers...

What if they said, "Sorry, we can't transfer over your Rivals Clash Melo because instead of Offense, Defense, Ball Control, and Mental Game, we're now using career averages in Points, Assists, Steals, and Blocks! What we CAN do is award you x amount of credits for every Rivals Clash or Playoffs card in your collection, though!"

From CD's perspective, it makes a lot of sense. Basically give everyone a fresh start, so the players who were alienated by overwhelming competition even though they liked the game when they hopped in late last year feel like they can compete now. In addition, retain the lifetime value of the top players by essentially giving them a free pass to try and earn one "new and improved" RC card for FREE for every RC card they lost in the transition.

While they take a short-term hit, the kids will still spend money in the long run, and by keeping top players from the old game and suckering in some new ones with the allure of a second chance at a better game, competition continues to rise and revenues go up with it.

Lol yo im a grown man. But if I cared enough to pay...imma pay! thats the way of the world. yall arguing emotion (nor saying you getting emotional just saying feelings.). Im talking dollars and business. tell me a game that allows you to carry over every year. Its really not that serious to start over. Idc if someone paid for all their cards or earned them. At the end of the day it is what it is. But lets stop acting like ppl who pay for HS or packs don't deserve our credit. They grind just like free ppl do. Im not one who pays because I chose not to. But im not gonna look at someone differently who does.

Re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion

Nor do I feel that im entitled by CD to give me something for playing. Its a cool way to pass time. If I dont like what they do I can always delete the app

Never understood the argument between spenders and non-spenders. Let people play the way they want. However I do think that getting good cards while not spending gives people a better sense of accomplishment than spending and getting the same cards.

This is exactly what I don't understand. I know someone that dropped $500+ on this app the moment he started and was trying to sell his account 2 weeks later for less than half...

I don't know how it got to spending vs non spending. I said I wanted things to be equal for everyone. I just want to keep the rc cards. They need to come out and say what's gonna happen. New app or nah?

Exactly, spenders are just as much players as non-spenders. Not spending is how I chose to play, and I'm up there in stats with guys that dropped $100+. It took awhile, but I feel good about it. I've just said I want my RC cards still, 5 cards is no big deal. The guys that have never gotten good cards like that just want to start over.

Re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion

Did... did I break the game? I logged in and saw it said "season complete" but I'm only like 60 games through... It said claim reward and I got a random legend, Alonzo Mourning. Then I backed out and it went back to game 61... I'm fully expecting to get Zo taken away...

Lucky I had that happen but I backed out in fear of screwing something up.

A compensation would be nice, but honestly, I'll be playing either way if they make a new app.

Daniel2k, Shokase, Matthew just to name a few. I know Daniel2k spent like 6 or 7 thousand, and Shokase and Matt dropped close to 500. They're all selling (or trying to at least) for like 200.. And, in the event there is not a new game, they have to start all over. I don't understand
