Damn, I'm so sorry that I'm contributing to your suffering. I'm going to hang myself now so that I don't make anyone else suffer.

If spending a few bucks is going to let me enjoy a game a little more, give MyPlayer better attributes and all the other fixings, I'm going for it.
That's funny, cause lots of my friends work a 9-5 and they can build a good myTeam and a 90 overall myCareer in a week or two.

"There's no time?" Lol, funny. It's easy to earn VC but the pricing and perspective of how much something cost is embarrassing.

With people who are out of touch, seeing is believing. They don't care what people say or complain about, they want to see it. So, the sales of NBA 2k would have to drop drastically and I doubt that will happen.
I think you are correct. I have a hard time believing the creative minds of NBA 2K could listen to ideas regarding VC & other aspects and conclude, "Yes, this is what's best for our simulation basketball product." A lot of these additions do not feel like artists making artistic decisions.

Rather, as you said, it feels like they're coming from another, more business-driven corner and again, like you said, I believe that's going to very seriously affect their core fan base.

I don't think we "have to accept" anything. Micro transactions are a disgrace to gaming. I respect your honesty, but I hope other gamers realize that this VC thing and micro transactions in general will only get WORSE if we don't voice our opinions.
AGREED, Micro transactions ruin the fun it's not the money it's the principal it used to be you beat the game and you unlock secret levels or something fun like that. Now it's just SCREW YOU GIVE US MONEY

Hmm. I think VC awarded is much more appropriate compared to current gen. But I'm speaking specifically of what is awarded in MyCareer.

Re: VC ratio is ridiculous.

Getting the trophies for MyTEAM collections without buying VC seems like it would take about a gajillion hours of play time.

It's completely and utterly ridiculous.

I will not reward this model by buying VC. But I will certainly be angry about it and complain.

All of you who are buying VC, are providing the exact reasons to 2K why they will never get rid of VC. Every dollar spent on VC is pure profit.

You know... You're completely right. The only thing is if I didn't do it they're many others that still will spend money on VC. Every game mode should be enjoyable though you're right. I was playing myGM mode last night and I couldn't even send players I drafted to training camp cause I didn't have enough VC and that made the coach upset. **** was like 1200 just for big man offense camp. It is ridiculous.
