It's 2013 and a new generation and these bafoons still have anemic servers? :dead: I love the 2k brand as a whole, but this has been a long time coming. The nickel and diming...removing features...ignoring and even omitting certain modes. 2K has one of the most loyal, and unfortunately, brain dead and apologetic fan bases I've ever seen. This type of crap will continue until these clowns get any decent competition.

Screw EA, but if they don't put out a decent product in the next couple of years, hoops gaming will go the way of Madden. No competition, brain dead, complacent fan base, and a company more worried about style and reeling in guys who want to play an RPG than actual basketball.

I use to go to 2k website they always asked for suggestions. They pretty much took all the good idea's and put them in the game. If they wanted to be lazy they could have ported 2k like call of duty. You should be thankful.

fukk that, the company should be thanking the customer who chooses to spend his or her hard earn money on there product......we the consumers say what is acceptable and what is not, most of these dlc/pay to play/Micro transactions shyt is foul and I vote with my wallet

Obviously OP does not like the direction 2k is going and he is doing the right thing by questioning :camby:

FROM bulletfc of the OS SPORTS BOARD :manny:

In order to play NBA2K14 on the next-gen, you need VC. Period. This method will get you an average of about 100 VC a minute on the conservative side.

After trying a lot of different ways in this game to to earn VC without having to grind out games, here's the fastest way I've discovered to earn VC. Please note that this guide is made for PS4.
  1. Start the game and move the cursor to MyGM
  2. Push Triangle to manage/select your save files
  3. Choose to start a new MyGM file, delete an old file if you need to
  4. At options screen leave everything the same but turn injuries off
  5. Choose the Miami Heat
  6. Spam X through initial owner talk, always choose will accomplish to get the most VC
  7. Choose won't change in initial coach talk and all coach talks moving forward
  8. Auto-generate rookies
  9. You will now be at the MyGM homepage. Push circle, select options
  10. Go to MyGM customization
  11. Turn lineup management, prospect scouting, and player roles ON to automate them. Hit circle to save and go back to MyGM homepage
  12. Exit menu and scroll to final season game
  13. Push X, select simulate through date
  14. Spam X through press conferences and team chemistry talks as they pop up
  15. Continue to choose won't change for talking with coaches who want you to look at strategies
  16. Tap circle when other GMs call you to decline their calls - keyword here is tap, if you hold it for too long you will stop simulating and will have to scroll through all the games again
  17. Spam X when Lebron (star player) talks to you
  18. Choose continue season when prompted for All-Star game, trade deadline, contract extension deadline
  19. Sim playoffs - scroll to game 4 and choose simulate. The cursor will automatically move to game 5-6-7 so you just need to hit X and select simulate
  20. Sometimes playoffs bring new owner challenges, always choose will accomplish
  21. You get 250 VC if you win title
  22. After season is over, set budget for next year (push triangle to auto allocate, then circle), this will save VC, then push circle and exit the game mode. Sometimes the owner will tell you to get rid of player in the off-season... open menu go to front office, team roster, select player, hit X, and choose release to FA. Do this before exiting the game mode if the owner asks for this, easy 100 VC
  23. Repeat cycle for as long as you want, you will likely need to delete the old MyGM file when you start a new MyGM save
The whole process takes approximately 5-6 minutes once you get used to it and generates anywhere from 400-1000+ VC per season on average. Some goals like fan attendance and team morale are very easy to get, others like winning the division and playoff goals (i.e. sweep series, force game 7) are a little tougher, and obviously winning the championship the most difficult.

If you have any way to improve the method feel free to let me know! Hopefully this will help people who are hitting a wall with VC to get past some hurdles without having to shell out real life money.

Any time I've played myplayer, I've never felt compelled to pay money JUST for VC. I've always wanted to grind it out so I can improve my player so that he's one of the best in the game first. Then after that I'd spend my extra VC on clothes or whatever (some of the clothes even help improve his skills). So I don't see a problem.

I do agree though that some of these shyts is overpriced

I was going to address this but it's already been harped on. Just another example of how confused some of you dudes are. With all due respect, FoH. :camby:

yes you did, it's just that they allowed you to select accessories to start off with. If you wanted to change them...you needed VC

This game sucks...no videogame should frustrate a person the way NBA 2k14 does.
