    New salary cap play prices reflect the greediness of 2k

    So every bronze current player goes by 100 salary cap. Current Emeralds 280. Free Artest 600 points. But hey, you can take the new ruby Horford that has 100 points. He costs 40K MT or go buy packs. Free Irving 300+, same Historic Sapphs 100.

    All historic players are "strangely" with less points in the salary cap measurement. Hmmm.Let's go buy some packs

    2k overdid it. It FORCES you to buy a new team every week. The team that I was using is WELL off the limit.

    I am done

    Really? I haven't check the game today! It's ridiculous.
    2K is way too greedy.

      Lol, how is the free Marcus Camby more expensive than historic sapphires or historic rubies. NO ONE HAS USED HIM

        2k sold out. MyTeam is a scam. All your current players skyrocket so you have to spend MT/VC on crappier cost efficient players or new players from packs. Meanwhile prices will be fixed by snipers on these cost efficient cards.

          Let's see how it plays out. We will either find that guys with the newest cards always have a better team or every one will have to be creative. It's too early to tell.

            This system will probably be the worst it is now and as the year goes on and the variety of cards to obtain increases it won't be this dramatic. I think it's a good idea overall but maybe they overdid it. Would love for a greater variety in teams though, that's always nice.

              People have to remember that each season consists of rounds. You might not be able to put out your best team every round, but you can still do well throughout the season. I do think that new cards should come out at the base rate (new rubies should be 225 until they've been available a full season).

                Yeah they should add the new throwback players the same time they give out the weekly supermax rewards to avoid this.

                  Unless they start doing that, we can assume that they intend to give those who buy packs an advantage, by virtue of this.

                    Already faced a team that had Ruby Lin, Emerald Gasol, Lebron, Steph, Paul George, Ruby Shaq, Porzingis, and like 2 other emeralds. This only means that in the future, people that buy new packs will have great low value cards towards their cap, and people that have been scrounging for good current cards will have to restrict their teams to accommodate the supermax caps.

                      Lin - 400?
                      Gasol - 280
                      Lebron - 320
                      Steph - 320
                      PG13 - 280
                      Shaq - 400/600?
                      Porzingis - 200

                      Are you saying you faced a team that wouldn't meet cap in the unrestricted preseason?

                        I was excited for this mode and the draft mode and it convinced me to buy a game I really wasn't going to this year. Now they botch this and I literally haven't felt the desire to play 2k at all. I really like basketball but this is disgusting.

                        All I can hope for is immediate patches that fix this stuff since we are all clearly testing this for them. Come on 2k. All we ask for is a playable product that is fun and you have ruined it for me.

                        Oh I as excited to play all the offline content too like schedule challenges until I realized those were a total waste of my time too. Give meaningful rewards, mt, and contracts or don't require contracts you greedy company and I might play again.

                          No cap over the wkend for placement matches so I'm thinking that's what that is.

                              I love the new mode and the cap feature. When I first started tinkering I was like damn this 2400 sucks then I figured it out all about finding the low salary stud not ripping packs and praying.

                              On my 2400 team I have 3 Rubys, 1 Sapphire, 5 Emeralds , 1 Gold and 3 silvers.
                              Damon Jones Dynamic Duo with James Jones turns them both into Emeralds. You have to find low guys and be creative.

                              I have 3 games left in regular domination so this might not be my final 2400 team. Im going to squeeze a 600 Amythest in a lineup.
