You CAN Play Couch Co-op and CPU vs. CPU in MyGM

unfortunately the answer is no. You're still stuck to play single player nor can you move the controller to CPU or the other side. :-/

Exactly. This is how I play all sports games nowadays. I manage my team and watch the big games throughout the season. I need CPU vs CPU.

It's interesting how 2K have gone about their justification for getting rid of couch co-op and CPS vs. CPU for MyGM and Season Mode. I've been thinking about it for a while now and they've missed the point.

I have always played CPU vs CPU ever since I started playing 2K purely because it, in my opinion provides the most realistic gameplay because you have absolutely NO control over it and therefore NO way to 'tamper' with the result in any way.

2K justified getting rid of couch co-op and CPU vs CPU with something more or less along the lines of that they wanted to make the experience and the acquiring of VC as pure as possible and that there was no way to use the gameplay to your VC account balance's advantage.

Now for couch co-op, yes, I can understand why 2K did this (sorry for those couch co-op folks out there); you can put one controller on the other team and make the team terrible so that you're guaranteed a big win and big rewards down the line.

However, for CPU vs CPU, this doesn't make sense to me at all. How would it be possible at all for us to use the gameplay to our advantage to get extra VC when the entirety of the gameplay is out of our control and in the hands of the AI? Does it not make sense to believe that it would actually be harder to get the wins and the VC playing CPU vs CPU because instead of relying on a mix of skill and luck, all we have to rely on is the lucky bounce with the AI engine?

So if anyone from 2K dev teams out there happens to stumble upon this and would like to provide feedback or even constructive criticism of my view, I would encourage you to do so. The offer also goes out to anyone here on OS to share their opinion. I hear a major patch is in the works for 2K14 and I would like to think that it wouldn't be the end of the world to at least give us back our precious CPU vs CPU gameplay in MyGM and Season Mode.

If its a VC issue then thats fairly annoying. Honestly who gives a **** if someone figures out an easier way to get a little extra VC. And if thats the case disable VC earnings from co op games dont take away an option that is clearly very important to alot of people.
personally I dont ever play co op or cpu vs cpu but for those who it matters too I feel your frustrations.
I think the fact that there is a work around shows clearly that 2K consciously took the option out and im curious as to know the reason. If it is an issue with virtual currency then I think its really important for 2K to reevaluate the whole functionality of the VC system. When did paying $60 bucks for a game not become enough and because its not enough now I cant play it how I want for my $60 investment? Seems wrong to me.

Is there a way around the patch on xbox one? I can't seem to figure it out.

[nysteele07]

Yes please. I don't care if I don't receive there precious Virtual currency. I just want to enjoy a game mode that I have played for years with another human. And no there is no work around for Xbox One. I've searched and tried a half dozen ways to play with 2 people. If someone does find a way please let me know.

For all the cpu vs cpu players. I've found a way to watch your games in mygm and season mode cpu vs cpu. PM me for insight

I don't understand why there were so many things available pre-patch that were taken away for no apparent reason. Things like adjusting leg height/wingspan, putting more than one piece of gear on your legs/knees, and playing co-op in myGM were all removed by the first patch. What are the positives that come from taking features out that are already included on the disc? It makes no sense to me.
