NBA 2K14: MyGM Virtual Currency Rewards Slashed by 40%

11:43 AM - March 21, 2014 by RaychelSnr

Earlier this week, NBA 2K14 quietly installed a server-side update that has reduced the amount of virtual currency PlayStation 4 and Xbox One gamers receive for completing owner goals in the My GM game mode.

All season milestones which had previously awarded 200 VC and 250 VC, such as selling out 32 home games or winning the NBA championship, will now yield just 100 VC once they are completed.

Wish they made the new games for the old consoles

Still no word from the 2K hype men about this? At least they keep us updated on important things like their tourney bracket!

How about you get a salary in mygm, so other day, you get a payout, based on how well you do. So get rid of goals and add in salary, and same with mycareer, you start by getting 500 vc, and if you do well you get a raise.

This burns me a lot, how is this anything but a slap in the face to fans of the series?

# 86 KyotoCarl @ 03/23/14 02:32 PM

Seriously. Why have they done this? I thought this article was about them slashing the VC prices, which would've been logical since it's not balanced. But slashing how much VC you GET is totally unacceptable.

I stopped playing myteam since can't open packs as frequently

And all of the registered Development Team has been on the forum since this article. .. yet... crickets. I may be wrong, but I am almost positive I've seen them lurking.

I keep seeing the dev team brought up...the dev team makes these decisions? I'd be surprised if that were he case...

Just waiting for anyone to acknowledge the change. It's just like that song "say something, I'm giving up on you" ha.

# 91 WTF @ 03/23/14 03:54 PM

Of course they don't make the decision, but you'd think with it being pointed out, they'd mention"why" the change.

They didn't just hurt people who sim, now MyGM isn't even worth legitimately playing. Are they making that concession?

# 93 Heroesandvillains @ 03/23/14 04:06 PM

Please change the title to this article.

I bypassed it originally thinking this was a sale. Glad I came in now.

These shady development practices need to stop and this article needs more attention.

Don't get me wrong, i'm with you...I would just expect this from Ronnie or LD2k....as they are public relations....not the development team. It'd be like asking the food preparers at McDonalds why the price of the double cheeseburger went up....

Yeah I gave up on this game in like January because I can't stand the VC crap. No way am I going to shell out even MORE money on micro-transactions when I already dropped $60 to buy the game in the first place. Not to mention the game was missing so many features, and to have to pay earned VC to set your lineup? Are you serious? BTW, GMs don't set the lineup, so you guys might want to change the name of that game mode back to just the Association. Doesn't really matter to me though as I won't be buying 2K15. if I do succumb to it, it will be used and cheap, either way, 2K won't get any money from me. I'm sick of the hype and final product not even coming close to matching each other.

# 96 Luis241989 @ 03/23/14 06:09 PM

Great article! Glad u acknowledged this 2k shot themselves in the foot this year i just got rid of the game its unplayable unless u give them your credit card number and with all the bugs this game has i will be skipping 2k15 this is the perfect time for live to bring out a playable product this october.

# 97 kjjnesb @ 03/23/14 07:07 PM

How insanely arrogant of 2K. They know the playoffs are coming about and are looking to take advantage of people that get the 2K itch smh.

Shame the major gaming media won't take 2K to task over this.

# 98 Smith146 @ 03/23/14 07:34 PM

I'm going to contact ign and gamespot and forward them this article. I doubt either would write something but you never know

Because like Steve Nash, they want the money.

# 100 SPRINGS03 @ 03/24/14 05:45 AM

Eh, honestly i'm sure part of the reason they did this is because they know their fanbase will buy it anyway(similar to the COD fanbase). Let's be honest here, how many of you people complaining are gonna impulsively shell out money for 2k15 next year and then complain about things they don't fix? They probably realize they don't need to really try and i doubt they care much about improving the game when they know they'll still make a good profit anyway. The last 2k i bought before 2k14 was 2k11. 2k12 and 2k13 i bought used purposely so 2k would not get any of my profit, and i'll probably be doing it next year. If i don't find a used copy i just won't buy it. I'm in the minority though. Most people forget whatever gripes they had when they see whatever trailer 2k puts out all of a sudden they're like "OH MAH GOD MANE, DIS DA BEST LOOKING THING I EVER SEEN, I GOTTA THROW MY MONEY AT 2K CUZ I'M IMPULSIVE AND HAVE TO PLAY DIS MAN". It's sad really. For all the complaints 2k got about 2k14 this year, it won't mean a thing if they still sell well. As a matter of fact it'll prove that they don't have to try and people will buy anything(it's not like there's much of a choice, there's 2 NBA basketball games out and 1 is sooo bad that it makes 2k a game that's ok but needs a lot of work, look like the god of bball games).
