Okay its common sense that those things change within change of wingspan, height, weight. That's the reason we want ability to respec those option. I still don't get why its so "unavailable" to implement in general. Badges were made available to respec while you could put up same arguments if they weren't. Besides your character ratings already "fluid" with overall changes when you are 95+ ovr. and it can change literally every game, so its not like they can't keep things "in check", system is already there.

Again the issue is why character creation is made that way when proper respec options not given. There is no explanations at all how ratings and badges correlate and you cant really tell which option is good or not until you actually play online games (that offline build test is almost useless at that )

Changing classes in borderlands seems to require a cheat engine.
changing class is not equivalent to whats being asked, but a skill tree build within same class. Changing class is equivalent to changing position (eg. from pg to center), changing tree build means changing parameters within same class like badges, height, weight, archetype pies etc.

you can fully respec character in path of exile (online only game) it just cost currency to do so.

Plus, everyone saying they would "lose" money on VC. Gabe you never played an MMORPG? Respec starts cheap and then gets more and more expensive. Plus, it's not like we would LOSE the ability to make more characters. If anything this would make them MORE money. As it is, once again, an ADDITIONAL feature. That ADDS to the game, doesn't take away from it.


You should figure out before you are 99 overall that you dont like how your build plays.

If it takes you that long then the game is the least of your issues.

Elder scrolls online did not allow me to change race and class.
I could respec my build to be a tank or dps or healer but race and class was set.

Race lenght and class is pretty much the same as position, pie charts and measurements.

Respec would be the badges and takeover.
Maybe choosing your potential.

Which brings us to VC.

A 86 overall build cost around 200K vc.
200k vc cost 50 dollar.

A respec for a 86 overall build would then be around that price.

So a 99 overall would be more then the game itself.

Anything less and 2K would be stealing from themselves.
Put those prices up and you would have a PR nightmare.

You can test animations by using the players the animations are from.....

Nobody ask something crazy like changing from pg playmaker to center rebounder for free as many times as you want. Just character creation adjustments that could help reaching certain tresholds that not even explained in game when u creating character.

Bro... You sound dumber and dumber every time i read your posts.

In ESO you have the option to purchase any race and any faction as an addon. Then later on you can purchase race change and name change tokens. On top of this, you can respec at any time.

Now, i get it. You may not have played ESO as long as i have. But these were EXTREMELY sought after options that were added much later down the line. Around 2-3 years after the game had launched. Now, if your experience was from 3-4 years ago, you'll be happy to know those features are available now.

Point being, if 2k21 had this feature I'm POSITIVE people would pay hand over fist to avoid the grind.

It would be nice if we could use our facescan for CAP. I'm not into the mycareer stuff,but I would love use my actual scan for my own franchise play.

Any examples of what you mean exactly?

Cosmetic changes are already possible.
Name changing cant be done by 2K for online.

You can change badges.

Potential could be an option but would be very expensive as 86 overal build would be around 50 dollars.

Takeover would be an option but doubt it would come cheap.
