    RIP BTC

    After being here for such a short time, the day has come to bury this game-mode. It lies next to the graves of RC and RTTC.

    You now need 2k credits to craft a recipe. Even for the basic recipe..

    So thats basically 20$ for a 0,5% chance to craft a star card. Thats the worst possible value we ever had, by far.

    That is just incorrect. With the update we now allow you to spend up to 2000 Credits to fill up to 4 empty slots in a recipe. As you fill those last 4 slots with the required cards, the price drops 500 Credits for each slot filled. That means if you fill the recipe completely (just like before), then the Credits cost is 0. So you have lost nothing in terms of functionality of cost, but have gained a means to fill a troublesome slot that you were having a hard time filling before.


    BTW: The recipes still cost BRP, so you'll need to play BTC to get BRP to execute the recipes just like before.

      So the basic recipe without any player cards costs 2000, you just said that yourself.

      Thats exactly what i wrote, what you stated as incorrect. Think before you write.

      Since you are here anyway: Why 2000 credits (20$)? thats quite a lot for such a small chance to get a useful card? The argument, that you can lower it to 0 doesnt work, since you made the 2000 credits option available as well, so what is the intention there?

        You don't NEED credits to craft a recipe. This is just a way to bypass needing the cards necessary. So you 1) get all the cards and it costs 0 or 2) use credits to "fill in" the remaining cards you need

        You seem to be overreacting.

            Re: RIP BTC

            I can't see the option to spend credits to fill out the card slots anywhere.

            Has the update been enabled on iOs and not Android?

                You will not see the Credits option until you have filled in the recipe to where you have only 4 open slots left. Then the button will highlight and present a 2000 Credit price. You can either pay that price, or continue to fill in the remaining last 4 slots. Each slot you fill reduces the Credits cost by 500 Credits, so if you fill them all in, like you had to before, then the Credits cost is 0.


                To the OP, you really need to learn some reading comprehension, and stop insulting people for your lack of understanding. I clearly explained that this is a new OPTION to allow players that don't want to spend time filling the last 4 slots in a recipe to bypass them by spending money on Credits. It is not *requiring* Credits to finish a recipe. Just giving players a means to finish the recipe if they are getting impatient.

                  That hardly made any sense at all. You just insulted me :-)

                  i absolutely understand why you are doing this, its all about the money, and thats fine. You guys are just overdoing it over and over again. In the end this will be the nail in the coffin if there will ever be a 2k17. In the end you gave us an option to pay an extra 20$ for a 0,5% chance to get a star card. This fact wont change, no matter what insult you choose to take on others.

                    I only have 1 slot left (an enhancement slot) for the Basic recipe. Shouldn't I see the option for 500 credits?

                      You really don't seem to grasp how it works.

                      Credits have always been an option to bypass certain mechanics/speed things up (game nights, etc). That's all this is. It doesn't require you to pay anything for the recipe. If you have all the cards needed, it is 0 credits.

                      But if I don't want to spend RP on a card or wait to draft it, I can pay 500 credits to "fill" that card in the recipe.

                      Every other person who has posted here has told you it isn't a big deal and that you are not understanding it. Please take the time to figure it out before you say that we don't make any sense. You are the only one not making sense.

                        So lets break this done:

                        Its an option to pay 500 credits instead of using a uncommon or higher card. As far as i see it, there's 2 kind of people using this option:

                        1. the people that dont know about using a card instead of credits. This will be the majority of people i guess. They think you have to pay credits so they end up doing it.

                        2. the lazy people. those people are too lazy to invest 800+ RP for an uncommon or higher card and instead use 5$ for every of those cards. This is like the conversation rate of credits to RP, no value in here.

                        I dont think any person will use this option just because they are lazy. So its all down to option number 1. So why they gave us the option to pay credits? According to the things they did in the past (400$ for a single michael jordan card back in mynba2k15, the pack price and drop ratio), theres only one fitting motivation. If the small player base that still plays this game accepts this, we are getting worse and worse content from them.

                        Anyway, in the end the argument "you dont have to buy it so stop arguing" works here. It just leaves a bad tastes in the mouth of anyone who is not able/willing to pay 1000+$ every month to have a semi-competitive deck. But i guess thats the story of this game.

                        Im fine if we close this thread, we got an answer from CD, thats what i wanted :-).

                          Badman, did you include the 4 missing uncommon cards in your slot left? Try adding them in and see if the credit amount changes.

                            I figured out what happened. I didn't select the uncommons and "add" em. Once I did that, I saw the credits option

                              You are assuming that the Credits option applies only to the Player card slots. It does not. It applies to *any* of the slots. So things like Enhancements that players were complaining about not having the specific ones, can now be bypassed via 500 Credits. You cannot spend 800 RP to get any Enhancement you want, it comes down to luck from the Daily Picker, so the Credit option may be useful for someone impatient.
