Not for nothing guy but if everyone played MyCAREER without farming for VC or god forbid buying it, it would take them at least 10 seasons of MyCAREER to actually get any good. Take when your rookie contract ends for example. How is it at all fair to offer players 650 VC for 5 years when all the good sht in MyCAREER is worth 3X that much? That's 650 VC for 5 years mind you that I actually had to negotiate for. That wasn't the original offer which is fcking sad in my opinion. That's not even enough for a fcking hat let alone a 1 point bump on 3-Point or Rebound ratings. That's beyond pitiful and it's enablers like you that let's 2K get away with this sht. Farming for VC by any means was the only real rational way to earn VC without playing 6 hours a day and reaping the same benefits. Farming for VC before the patch got me 30,000 VC an hour. If done through legit means, that would've taken weeks and honestly, who's got that much time on their hands? Some people work for a living, they go to school, they have kids, girlfriends, mistresses they fck on the side, etc... who's got the time to play 6 hours a day to earn 3,500 VC to buy a stupid Philadelphia 76ers hat?

Farming was a victimless crime in this game. Why should 2K give a sht? We already bought the fcking game. I farmed shamelessly in Resident Evil 5 to get all good guns and upgrades. Here, with all the ridiculous prices in the MyPlayer store, farming was the only rational option.

VC farming is still in the game lol, took me a minute but I found a way.

It's not even that. I used the VC to upgrade my player little by little after each Career game. 100 VC for a 40+ minute game was pitiful and allowed what? +1 or +2 attributes? You really thank +1 to an attribute is gonna help? Not to mention Speed costs 450+ for each +1. 4-5 games to get +1 in speed is just not right. At least earning 750+ VC after a regular game allowed for 1-2 upgrades.

The VC system was just so broken this year and 2K should just get rid of it all. Or at least only apply to gear and signature skills. The Skill Point system was just fine with me, I don't see why 2K felt it'd be beneficial to make VC pay for attribute upgrades.They should know people would abuse it and use it to get their player scoring 40+ a game off the bench... in their first games. Totally takes away from the realism of the game and Career mode. Having to earn VC for upgrades takes too long. Having to pay for VC takes away from the fun and is completely unnecessary because the skill point system was just fine.

Ok, this is a problem, not removing the coach mode for VC exploit. Guys not getting VC for actually playing and finishing games needs to be addressed, not why they removed an exploit.

Whatever happened to the days that fans were just 'fans' and played a basketball game because they loved a certain team or player? Now, it seems no one can play without a major feature being the ability to earn fancier shoes or armbands or magical boosts to their ratings. Where's the glory?

Where is the glory of being able to take a 60 rated player score 30, 10, 10 knowing that you will get rewarded a good amount of skill points. Where are the days of winning the MVP your first two season and looking forward to a big money contract that will allow you to buy Jordan's dunk package etc.

Its sad that making money on the side has ruin my player mode. I used to play every game in 2k12 despite the game flaws, I barely play my player in 2k13 because it means nothing to get a triple double. Should I look foward to a 400 coin contract? I have never done one drill in myplayer mode, 60 vc for a drill really...You can't even upgrade anything.

but you can still buy VC so your point doesn't make sense at all. My friend used his last paycheck on PSN cards last week. He was 99 ovr in his first NBA game.

now i can't earn VC in association? WTF is this?

So apparently 2K thought it was good to remove this feature so we can't earn an easy buck. 1. You earn absolutely nothing while playing MyCareer, everything is TOO expensive as well. 2. You don't get any VC doing coach mode no more. 3. You only get some VC when you play 12 min quarters. Who has that time? 4. Blacktop mode has changed as well, so you can't shoot 3's and get an easy (I forgot) 250 VC? 5. You don't get VC playing association, again just VC for the time you put into it. So 2K, what do you want from us? You want us to buy VC from you? This is so unbelievably lame.

i get VC after every association game i play. i play 10 minute quarters, all star difficulty. i dont why some people dont get VC for association games and some do.
