read this before picking which version you preorder.

hey guys...i Just wanted to put this info out there for ppl.

2k18 is really trying to shove myteam down our throats this year in the preorder "bonus". and instead of offer an 80 and 100 version like last year...they bump it to 100 and 150...insane!!

where they try to make that value relevant is 100% my team cards...which idk about you...ive never played. and considering myplayer is become a micro transaction must for VC an to stay relevant. why would i play 2 game modes that require me to spend any money.


further more...for the extra 40 bucks you spend to get the 100 version..you only get 100k vc.

now..unless they jack up their vc costs..this doesnt make sense if u only care about the VC.

in 2k17 20 bucks got you 75k vc...so u spend 40$ ( same as increase to legends edition) and you get 50k VC EXTRA!! (150k vc instead of 100) not to mention you get 5k vc for preordering the base version of the game.


so for the same amount of money you get 55k more vc.

so unless you play myteam....i would offer this route as an option to get the most vc for your buck!!


p.s. i wish they let vc transfer from 1 game to another. if i spend 20 bucks for vc on 2k17 an have a balance...why cant it transfer to 2k18....

if only.

You don't get 150k instead of 100k VC, you get 250k VC for the legend gold edition.

thats 150 dollars playboy....i was talking about the 100 dollar version..


but if u wanna talk about the 150 dollar version....i wonder how much 90$ can buy you of vc in the game. buying 75k for 20 bucks...well..easy math lets yoi figure that 80 bucks gets you 300k vc..


and yes i know you dont have to buy it....


i was simply letting ppl know there are other options that get you more vc if thats all you care about.

Re: read this before picking which version you preorder.

Or everyone just buys the regular version and then buys no VC afterwards, so that 2k stops that microtransaction crap in future games...

you are not getting 250k vc extra...you are getting 250k vc total!! for 90$ more than the 60$ version.

if you spent 80$ inside the 2k store on vc..you would get 300k in vc...

you just dont get the myteam packs, the gear your my player prolly wont wear for more than a week...and other pointless items
