'Universal Currency' Coming to MLB 14 The Show

[Threeebs]

Oh my goodness. The reason these forums were created in the first place was so that we could talk about these issues. There's always going to be two sides to these things. If there wasn't, what fun would this be? It would just be a site filled with robotic like rebuttle.

The opening title was vague, explaining that univeral currency was coming, as if it wasn't here, although it was in a sort of way with virtual currency already in place. A gentleman voiced his concern over 2K sports integration of universal currency. That's all he did. That is in no way considered whining in my books. Most businesses, from my perspective anyway, look at any way possible to grow their profit. This wouldn't be surprising in the least if it were the case.

Every person has a voice and there was two sides going back and forth, which made it fun. We eventually got our answer. The man was showing concern, that's all. Give the guy a break. He wasn't being ignorant...

Difference being yours was a thought-out and well-written rebuttal.

I think behaviors in another thread sort of also contributed to some people's opinions.

Great comment. The guy who voiced his complaints could've done so in a more constructive manner. But the echo chamber-like rebuttals to his complaint were also not constructive in my opinion.

I personally find Russell's comment a little vague so I will withhold judgment until I see the system as it's actually implemented -- and not rejoice prematurely.

Not their TV ratings though. NBA is far more widely watched. Again Live Hockey is awesome. And most hockey fans prefer to watch it live. On TV is does not do better than the NBA and a lot of the money comes from the cable revenue and networks.

This is my last post on this.

My biggest problem with this entire exchange has been this....and I'm sorry, but it's indisputable, regardless of what you may or may not think is "going to happen" with VC/UC.

Year after year after year SCEA has given communities and THIS one in particular UNPRECEDENTED access....input and the ability to shape this game.
YEARS.
Yet one article by someone who IMO has had an agenda for whatever reason towards SCEA and The Show in general brought out the wolves here.
(I don't mean O.S. or MMChriss and I'm not blaming MMChriss for bringing this article here at all.....he was actually doing good IMO by taking the exchange here.)

...but...
Not even a hint of the benefit of the doubt for the devs.


Reread the thread.
Before anyone even turned the heat on to the doubters....there was post #1 on page 2.
That set the tone in my book.

Goodnight and good luck!

Um.. Knight, you know I respect you and all but page 2 to you is not always page 2 to everyone else.


Which post? Just curious......
