Everything that is wrong with MyGM - VC Discussion

[supermati]

Hi,

First of let me say two things: I don't own a PS4 yet but I've seen something on a stream that really pissed me off. Second, I posted this on another thread but I feel this specific VC-MyGM discussion deserves its own thread.

A friend sent me a great stream with a really kind person playing the game (The link to the stream is: http://www.twitch.tv/jasetheface).

Here's the problem:

Upon starting MyGM mode one of the first things a user wants to do is modify the team's rotation. What what happens in 2K14? This.



Yes, you need to buy an "upgrade", which costs VC, in order to change your team's minutes. Change your rotation! The most basic of things.

Even if that's the first upgrade you actually get to "buy", it's a sign of how the mode itself works. I feel it is beyond unnecessary to ruin a great mode with all these Free to Play coinage stuff.

I'd like to know how many people here in OS want either VC in or out of MyGM mode. I personally consider Franchise modes something "pure", something not to mess with considering how many Sim heads love to play it.

Please vote and voice your opinion, either favorable or not.


I want to thank Jasetheface for kindly showing me the rotations menu when I requested it in order to take a pic.

I agree. All GM's have the basic abilities to do that. They don't have to pay their owner to change the rotation.

VC is an annoying feature but I think the overall positives we will get out of this game will outweigh the negatives.

Isn't it the coach who sets the rotations? Therefor this is right in line with what 2K wants MyGm mode to be. Being able to unlock the option later is reasonable.

Imagine how good this mode will be next year when they've gotten back feedback from us players.

You've got to "work your way up" in order to get that type of clout in the organization to be able to tell your coach how many minutes he should play his players. Nothing wrong with that. However, it comes off as 2k taking away control from the user since VC is needed.

Death to VC.

Absolutely not a big deal. You get 5,000 VC immediately for making your MyPlayer/GM. This upgrade costs... 500 VC. Close to the cost of a single game played. Solution: Spend 500 VC, get upgrade, bam. Was the first thing I did in MyGM mode after the initial conversation with my owner. Very much a non-issue.

this upgrade costs 500vc (almost nothing), and once you buy it you can use it for any new franchise you start....not worth bitching about.

if its only 500 vc there is absolutely no reason to complain about it.. sure its dumb to have to buy but its not like its thousands...its 1 game played
