It's not even about whether I have the option to buy VC, It's things like spending VC to "adjust lineups", or "contract negotiations". I want my association to be about building a team, a dynasty, managing players, financials, playbooks, offseason, etc. And my SKILLS in those areas to succeed

To me it just seems artificial. Even in myplayer mode, Why can't I increase my speed using gameplay mechanics, idc if it's a mini game atleast I'm working on a "skill" instead of worrying about ballhogging and cheesing my way to VC. I haven't even played the game since a week or 2 after launch so I don't even know if my examples make sense...

With that VC I might be able to change my starting lineup when I start my association.

Thanks 2K!

And +1 to people sick of Ronnie. He's a boob.

I'll probably place my pre-order of NBA 2K15 at Gamestop so I can just pick it up after my usual Tuesday workout since it's right next to the gym I go to. Can't wait for NBA 2K15, but I'll certainly continue to enjoy NBA 2K14 in the meantime.

It is because of what the preorder bonus says about the direction of the game as a whole. Many of us were not happy with the VC and by including it as a pre order bonus 2K has let it be known that VC is still around and still an important feature.

Further many people were drawn away from myplayer because of nonsense like spending VC to buy an armband. The unique leg sleeve suggests that a similar approach will be taken this year as well.

In short the bonuses tell us what the focus of the game will be and it is a focus that we do not like.

I feel like vc wouldnt be so bad if they weren't so stingy with it! Thats why people continuously try to exploit the game is because the reward to pay ratio is horrendous. If i play a mycareer game on pro i would get 300-500 vc. Gettig speed up by 1 cost more than that. A gold pack cost 13,000 vc. It costs so much more to buy things than you get rewarded. But i am intrigued by the KD my team card

I agree with both of you ×100. I lost respect for those YouTube frauds a while ago. They aren't famous, they just got on YouTube at the right time.

Even hoping for something to wow you from a baseline trailer is unreasonable. Truth is, even if they showed new gameplay from an alpha 2k15 model, all people would say is "Still looks like 2K14."

And spoiler alert:

Spoiler

2K15 will look and play a good bit like 2K14.

It's the same song and dance every year. Either you know what to expect and are just complaining for complaining's sake. Or you're totally deluding yourself.

The progression from one year to the very next will be negligble. And then we'll get 2K19 and wonder how we could stand to play something as ugly and stiff as 2K14 at some point.

Man, I can't wait for NBA 2K20 where they just remove the basketball part and make it all online trading cards and dressing your MyPlayer!
