No. It was about unbridled panic and unfettered fear of UC !

Yes, they learned that people will make your game the #1 selling launch title AND spend tons of extra on virtual currency.

Probably doesn't hurt now that they are the only baseball game in town. What you gonna do - go without? Most gamers I know don't have the spine to do it.

But until something is confirmed (or hidden away until release) we won't know.

For the people saying this has been in the game for years, how do you know if we haven't even been told what this "universal currency" is?

There is most likely something different to it, or it wouldn't of been given this name "universal currency"

Either way, i don't really care because I don't have any problems with VC in 2k, and that is probably worst case scenario for the Show, so either way this doesn't worry me.

I'm just saying that i don't think this is something that has been in the game for years, there must be something new to it and we won't know until we're told.

In years past if you wanted RTTS points and DD Dollars and Franchise Budget, you had to make 3 separate purchases.

NOW?..... if you want all 3, you make one purchase for "Universal Currency" and you can spend it on any mode any way you want.

Why is that so hard to grasp?

It's not hard to grasp, i figured that right away, but with that could come some other things too, and i'm saying we don't know if it is that black and white right now.

Youre absolutely right. And thats why everyone needs to chill until "Official" word comes out.
Nowhere in that bonus description does it say anything about the end of the Baseball world as we know it.
Pasta Padre is nowhere near "Official".
PP is known for being wrong..... alot!
