Attribute upgrades = SCAM

So I upgraded my speed for 3,500 VC and it stayed the same.
I upgraded my lateral quickness for 2,000 VC and it also stayed the same.

That's 5,500 VC for absolutely nothing.

I am now checking before and after attribute every time i upgrade myplayer.


Its messed up that i play all that time to "earn" my upgrade and then get absolutely nothing for it while shelling out VC.

too much shadiness in this game.

You should post some screenshots before and after upgrading that show your current rating. If that’s true, it is a big issue.

Its been like that in 2k17 as well . And it happens on certain attributes that get really affected by player creation options like weight and height.

For instance certain archetype gets 15 speed upgrades, if u make ur player lightweight you will get upgrade on each point, but if u add bunch extra weight your speed has to end up lower . Of course they could just give less upgrades to buy if ur character creation ends up with nerfed speed, but instead they give u same amound of upgrades to buy while some of them being "empty" .

This kinda makes sense but then why are you charging me VC for empty upgrades...

...well yes and no. There's a better way to do it. But if you saw builds and the same atchetype had 12 upgrades, but yours had 10, people would complain about bait and switch
