    Thoughts on this year's Pink Diamonds?

    Is it just me or does anybody else find that the way that they added pink diamonds back into NBA 2K17 is nothing short of ridiculous? I honestly miss the pink diamond system from NBA 2K15, yes it was a pain having to wake up at 3am, 5am, 7am where I live, but what I enjoyed the most were these pus youtubers complaining and everyone complaining about how they were unfair, they all needed to handle it, not everybody deserves the pink diamonds that were available back then, where I'm from you had to grind to get Pink Diamonds, wake up at early hours just for a chance, if anything I miss getting a pink diamond and seeing all these pus youtubers complaining when they didn't get one, when Shake4ndBake missed out on PD Larry Bird, I roasted the fucc outta that bus wannabe successful youtuber and he had the nerve to block me I mean all those bus people who complained ruined it for all those who were willing to grind.

    Pink Diamonds in 2k15 was the most idiotic thing 2k had ever introduced in MyTeam

    There is nothing in "grinding" to check your twitter account.

    EVERY player should be available THROUGH the game itself.

    This year at least you earn pink diamond players because you have played the game... It is a reward.

    There was nothing funny in playing against a scrub player who was able to beat you just because he had 10 pink diamond players

      When you have to wake up every hour in the middle of the night to give yourself even a chance, then type quick enough to beat all the other pus going for the same rare card, as well as being able to fall asleep at any given moment given the lack of quality sleep needed, that is a grind as far as 2K is concerned, I had to do that cause I live in Australia, I set myself an ambitious goal of getting all the Pink Diamonds and did it regardless of the small odds of it happening based off my circumstances, I had to do it for the clan, I had no other option, I had to get all 11 Pink Diamonds that year and did it... Failure was no option. You can bet I roasted the fucc outta all those bus youtubers afterwards...

      Clearly you didn't want those Pink Diamonds enough...

            The former 2K15 Pink Diamond delivery system was really unfair for people out of the Pacific Area ( I live in Europe), nothing related to the game or even basketball skills...

            That's the reason why they changed the locker code process this year.

            At least we can earn useful rewards using the game itself, not a twitter account and high speed connection...

              You like to do what you like to do but I hated the way it was then. I haven't bothered going after any in 2k17 yet but the way they did them this year is better.

                Well, it's obvious that you and I have different definitions of "grinding."

                  2K15's system was the most idiotic idea from that year. The only people who miss that system are the ones that had no real life commitments.

                      Please close this thread. Nothing constructive will come from this.

                      Nothing about 2015 pink diamond process was fun or had to do with the game. Cards should be earned with game play.

                            I'm also from Australia and this must be a troll thread. Obtaining those pink diamond cards only via twitter was 2K's worst ever idea during the history of the My Team mode.

                            Lock this thread, delete it and set it on fire.

                              It's clear that we share differences in opinions, yes I can see the logic in that every card should be earned in the game, but the fact that there were the best cards in the game that I was able to somehow get all of them given the circumstances of time zones, it makes sense that they should have made those locker codes come back, in 2K16 for the diamond steph curry I don't think any of you guys got that code cause me and a few friends got them all
