Idiot.
Thanks.

But, no... I don't think it is worth 30 bucks when the customer base essentially had to wait until buying the game to find out what was NOT included in it. What the developers, and the hype machine would not disclose about the PC version of the game. They hyped a lot of stuff and never led on that anything beyond the DLC would be excluded from the PC version.

Expect less, and they will give us less. If they were honest about what the PC version actually was, and were asking 20... I'd probably buy it. But, because they intentionally neglect the PC community, and essentially mislead us, why would I want to support that by giving them my dollars? They've gotten enough of my dollars. Fool me once, as they say... It's not a question about dollars. It is a question of principle, and some basic level of standards.

I've been wanting a good basketball game for the PC for a long time. Every year it gets worse.

If you want to give them 30 bucks, and you think it's worth it... that's fine. go right ahead. Personally, I'm not going to be "scared" into giving them any amount of money for an inferior product under threat of "well, we just won't make a pc version anymore"... That seems to be their roadmap anyway. And, delaying release, neglecting to inform the customer that the product is an inferior one to the other platform releases, and continually releasing a product that lacks even the most basic functionality...

I'll survive if I don't have a shiny new nba game to play. But, I'm not going to continue to put dollars towards supporting what is exactly the problem. That doesn't play with me. If someone wants my dollars, I'll pay up to 60 for a full product... Or, even one that at least lets me play online with my friends. And, has common sense functionality, like linking things like controller bindings, and playbooks to profiles. This is grade school stuff.

If the PC version is not profitable for them, piracy is a side effect (though, they will claim it as the primary reason) of the root causes... which boil down to an increasingly inferior product, and misleading and neglecting the customer base. Oh, by the way, we're going to delay the primary distribution method for the pc version (Digital) by 2 weeks... we didn't tell you that? Also, good luck finding a physical copy in your local stores. We kinda sorta didn't send any of those out. give me a break...

p.s. Personally, I would define an idiot as the one who blindly throws their money to a company who continues to offer them less and less for their dollar; and, will defend them with namecalling, if necessary... lol...

Re: 2K13 PC impressions thread

I can see some of you guys having problems with stuttering. I will try change my system settings and find out will this helps. I did benchmark and minimum fps drop was at 55 so I dont understand why it stutters badly.

As for the game. It feels different, in a good direction. I hate all this Jz stuff, it does look silly to me. When I fix stuttering it will be great.

i totally agree, it's ridiculous, we should know what we are paying for theres no excuse for that

it sucks missing out on those features but you at least gotta tell us in before the game comes out

What features are missing from the PC version? If its just the All Star DLC and MyTeam, I don't really care. I never touch those sorts of things anyway. I agree that its wrong to not include those in all versions of the game, but it doesn't stop me from enjoying the PC version.

$30 for higher framerates, resolution and AA is decent value to me. The PC version puts the xbox 360 demo to shame.

BULL! I have the 360 version as well and all the animations are there! The only thing lacking on the PC version is the content. Gameplay and all the core animation stuff are the same!

As you said no all-star, no my team, no vc , no wardrobe for my player, no 3vs3 blacktop with myplayer, you can't play any friend online outside online association.
All these things are terrible business decisions. I would use a lot of microtransactions just for the outfits.
And if they just told us before release most people would have been fine with that. But they hyped many of these things and said nothing so people feel cheated after they have bought the game
