I hope EA & NBA Live kick the shit out of NBA2K next year.
It's not, and even if they try 2k will just step their game up and fix that always online crap to fuck EA more up.
EA can't win
I hope EA & NBA Live kick the shit out of NBA2K next year.
But even better, upgrades give you extra abilities. Want to use those extra abilities that you unlocked with VC coins? Not so fast, you have to spend VC coins to use them too.

Lmao omg what a disaster.It's even funnier when you play mycareer and realize your player is getting paid less than it costs to buy a pair of shorts and a shirt for a 2 year contract. Sweet Nike shoe deal? It would be, but it pays less than the cost of a team branded headband. You're basically forced to be Hobo Jordan willing to put up triple doubles for a sandwich.
It's weird that sim racing games make you grind for cars but other sim sports games don't make you grind for players. Imagine if NBA 2K had a grind that you could bypass through microtransactions in order to unlock LeBron James. Or if Madden didn't have Peyton Manning unlocked until you did a grind through a season with no-name players to reach the point of unlocking Peyton.
Sim racers seem to have this grind mentality that makes me not want to play them and they're way different than other sports titles out there.
What do you think ultimate team/myteam modes are? You pay to unlock cardpacks which may or may not have the player you're looking for, it's like grinding for cars with a double plus uncertainty bonus.
And now the game becomes an instant no-buy for me.
There should ALWAYS be an offline option for games that allow you to play single-player.
This whole game is bullshit. It's the one title I regret.
The entire game is based around selling you VC. It's a huge grind without.
The menu system was designed to infuriate you.
The MyCareer cutscenes are a joke and make no sense. Win game and score a ton = GM mad at your performance. Nothing you do changes the way it is presented and YOU CAN'T SKIP THE FUCKING CUTSCENES
Fuck this game and fuck 2K. I'm going to sell it, this is some shady shit and it's basically a F2P game with the fucking VC shilling.
This is the official "damn, I got burned on this game" for me when it comes to launch. I should have fucking Gamefly'd it. Luckily it was part of Amazon's B2G1F so I don't feel too burned. Probably get what I paid for it.
I dropped 40 points 7 assists, 5 rebounds, 3 blocks and few steals, won the game for us, A+ teammate rating, mind you its alteady 20th game or so in a season, I come off the bench, getting shit minutes as it is, this moron of a coach asks me after the game "what was that, what happened out there?". CUTS MY MINUTES MORE WHEN I AM EXPECTING TO BE IN THE STARTING LINE UP ALREADY, holy shit the RAGE..... am I suppose to spend money to unlock it or? I am speechless.
I don't know about not allowing you to play the game offline (pretty sure I've done it recently), but the game straight up has the worst menus of any game I've ever played. Not only is it ugly as hell but it is extremely difficult to find what you're looking for.
Wow thanks, didn't know, so broken, my heart and game.By the way, the only way the coach and gm actually recognize a good game are if you actually meey the dynamic goals set by the coach. you can score 50pts, 20 rebounds and 20assists and if you dont hit the DG's the coach will bench you or lower your minutes. Funny thing is 2k13 and 12 were not like this. This game is beyon broken and there are stingy as hell with the VC, the reason they added drm is becasue there is a way to put in Unlimited VC up to a billion points i believe , yes even on next gen consoles, so they dont want to lose money from the suckers willing to pay 20 bucks for 80000 VC
So what modes could you play during PSN maintenance?
Wow thanks, didn't know, so broken, my heart and game.
What worries me more is that this thread has only 5 pages, yet a nice "scandal" gets 90. I would be on the fence right now if I had NBA 2K14.

What teams are you guys playing for and what position? I was the starting PF for Phoenix in under 20 games.
I was a defensive PF with almost no offense to speak of. 10-15 rebounds and usually 8-10 points while protecting the rim like no other. Of course with time my low post offense is now unstoppable. I'm close to averaging a triple double with 40-50 points. But that wasn't until after getting the starting job.
Yeah I was really liking this game at first and was able to look past its short comings. The MyCareer mode starts off pretty cool, and then you realize how shallow it is the more time you put into it. The Park (online 2v2, 3v3, 5v5 pickup games) or whatever its called seemed neat but it never worked whenever I tried it. It wasn't until after a few days of play I realized how big the grind it is. MyCareer really feels like its not meant to be played for a full season. I couldn't imagine doing a full season. Anyone know what its like after your 1st full season? Are you still treated as a rookie or what?
Any chance of getting a refund for this on PSN?

I've never been so confused about a game's mechanics then this "VC" I keep hearing about...
Are they like Madden points from the PS2-era Madden's which would be earned through various goals (running x yards, completing x passes etc) but instead of buying cards with the points it's used for career and GM modes?
2k is largely getting a pass because the game looks good. But I own it, and it gets worse the more time you sink into it. For being a really good looking basketball game it doesn't do the whole basketball part very well, especially in MyCareer, which is a "Buy VC please" on rails mode. Shameful.
Im playing for the suns as well as a SF , 6'9 260 Mini Lebron lol. Averaging 34 ppg and 3 steals, also averaging 5 rebounds and 4 assists per game. Whenever i get to 6th man, it will put me in an unwinnable situation like come back from 20 points down but then take me out the game before i can complete the comeback, thus failing my dynamic goals
Would be kinda nice if they went "well fuck it" and just made them each one time freebie consumables then abandoned the idea entirely.Has happened, eagerly awaiting response.

I don't even know what to say now. They can't compete economically. And they are blackballed.This garbage is why we still need Nintendo.
