      VC as currency and microtransactions have been the two worse things to happen to this series...
      EA and 2k have the unfortunate task of trying to balance on a tightrope of fun and sim while trying not to fall 10,000 feet to their death. Instead of a safety net waiting down below there will just be angry customers quick to move out of the way and talk of their failure.

        I kind of get the feeling that Take Two and 2K were anticipating it being there for the XB1, and 2K designed a game around that model, and were kinda blindsided by MS' decision.

        Then again, at the very same time...the VC being literally everywhere makes a strong argument for "give us as much money as you can, k thanks."

        If enough companies hop on board this refund thing, then they'll look at Take Two & 2K sideways when it comes time to order more copies of the game in bulk.

        That'll make Take Two say "hol' up hol' up hol' up...what happened now...?" and MAYBE the gamers will be rewarded.
        completely separate ideas. the xbox one wasnt "always online." it was a once a day check in. 2k14 being reliant on the 2k servers is more than likely related to pushing VC and microtransactions on everyone.

            Why won't 2k say something or speak up on this matter? You know some people wouldn't even "go in" the way they do if SOMEBODY from 2k actually says we made a mistake...

              I stand corrected then.

              That's even worse.

                See how sh*tty your product is, 2K?
                This guy got it for free and he wants a refund.

                On a serious note, try asking Target if they'll let you trade it in for another game which would replace it as the free game on your B2G1 deal.

                    Yeah I traded mine back in a while back. The only thing I liked about the game was the graphics, even though a few players look horrible, as a whole it looked good. Sadly, that's the only good thing I could say about it. Your teammates are still dumb as a bag of bricks and sometimes the controls don't feel responsive. MyCareer was horrible in my opinion. I don't want my career to be identical to everyone else's. They should make your player have the ability to fail, that way you get into it and you feel some of the pressure. The voice was ridiculous... I just hate that they made it a scripted story mode, I have RPGs, adventure games, open world games, whatever you want to call them for all of that stuff. Luckily for them Live flopped this year, but for me, it's wide open for next year... though I doubt either will be a day 1 purchase ever again.

                          Can't wait to see next year sales results and see that none of my hard earned money went towards 2K.

                            I enjoy my NG a lot better than cg gameplay wise but feature wise I feel like we all got ****ed over. Never take features out of a game and never miss a chance to address on-going issues we've been adamant about since 2k11.

                              I have never felt so ****ed by a developer. Online only, vc currency, losing my entire GM season because of a glitch. And I know 2k will do nothing. The game on the court is beautiful and I feel bad that those developers took so much time and put so much talent into the game only to be ruined by poor decisions and greed. Why am I not able to make my own save slots? Why can't I save two or three of the same season? Like every other video game in history. Why? Especially with a game that could take hundreds of hours of your life, then its gone for nothing. **** 2k.

                                Yes... I think I will be going to take my copy back in to Best Buy after this blizzard that we're getting here in Buffalo lets up this week.

                                I will still have one copy in the house though because my 13 year old loves the game and wont let me take his copy back.. lol..
