People think that COD supply drops are a cash grab, but at least you can still play online with friends in all the game modes without having to purchase them (just an example, I hate COD). If you want to play like 80-90% of the game on 2K you have to spend VC to be half way decent online or even offline. This game is pay to play to the fullest, at least if you are going to continue this practice then you should have 99.9% perfect servers, end of story.

It's actually sad how horrible this game has become with this practice, there is no way you can earn enough VC to play the game at a high level and also have any type of life.
It's been brought up a bunch but I'll do it again because it's that important to me and many others.

It costs $50 to get 200k VC. So basically, the same amount as a new game, on top of what we already paid for. You can get your guy to an 86 and have all the animations with that much.

But to get it to a 95 would cost minimum 250k. And in addition to the extra VC you'd have to earn, you'd have to spend roughly the same amount of time to grind that player up as you would when playing a single player game with a lengthy story line.

So the philosophy to get to 86 is to either grind for weeks and weeks, or to just pay up front...And then get to 95 to grind more and more. It's really really burned me out and is why if they continue with the same road next year, I'm out. Haven't even mentioned that getting badges is mostly guess work, still plenty of discussions out there on how to get some of the badges.

It's really awful, and then there's the whole deal of "Why are we paying so much extra for so little return". I mean, a game salary is between 300-400 for most of us once we hit the second season. We play a single game and still can't afford some of the shoes they put out there...or to buy a team celebration...
