Detroit You bytch Ass nikka
I am enjoying NBA LIVE 18 for a flat $40 charge and a SUPERIOR career mode this year.
Please explain to me just HOW TGE fukk does Live have a superior Career mode lil bruh?

This nikka thinks it's better cause it's easier to make your player good and easier to jump from team to team :mjlol:. Not even acknowledgeing the fact that outside of that the whole mode is bare as fukk and u can't do 10% of the things you can do in 2K :mjlol:. fukk outta here nikka.

Once they added the microtransactions they killed the series. The MyPlayer mode was really cool when it debuted...Then that Spike Lee BS came out, and all of sudden your character is rated 50 the entire season. Doing practices, and grinding is just a way to frustrate players into spending money for attributes. Who buys a basketball game to practice jumpshots for mad long only to be given plus 1 on one stat.

2k sold out.:camby:

I don't know if people have seen how bad it is this year with the micro-transactions.
The career mode purposely makes your character trash as fukk and you can only upgrade them with VC which can be earned in game or of course bought with actual money. Of course people will defend it just like that do those bullshyt ass loot boxes permeating games like the plague cause you can earn it in-game. Which is retarded as these games purposely drip feed this shyt out of am eye dropper or you can just use real world money to speed everything up.

And the cosmetic micro-transactions are even worse than usual. You need to pay VC to change your hair style in 2K18. It's bullshyt but OK is that really that bad?
How about you cannot preview the hairstyle on your character before you buy it, it might look like shyt on your character but you won't know until you buy it.
OK, that's worse but c'mon is it really that bad?
How about hairstyles are SINGLE USE items. That's right, you buy a hairstyle, you see it actually looks like trash on your character and want to revert to the previous hair style. Guess what? You need to pay for the previous hair style all over again!
Why the fukk does basic ass features I was using in the original 2K on the Dreamcast now cost money?
2K saw people buying up those Shark Cards like crack and went ham with the shyt.
I've been saying for ages this shyt should be illegal in full priced games.

I don’t understand how people buy a basketball game to play with created players but that’s another thread

They make it such an important part of doing pretty much anything in the game tho

Only thing that you can be successful without vc is my gm
Not if you don't play the other parts of the game :yeshrug: all i play is regular exhibition games and play now online, i don't care about VC because of it. Never been too into that extra stuff its too time consuming. You're basically upset at this whole situation because your a huge 2K fan and you play all the other extra features on the game

Dropped about $80 on VC for 2k17 (on top of the $60 the game costs)



Not worth it for shyt, I maybe played through half of a season on my main character, and basically got bored of the game because of all the stupid practicing you had to do. (Even with the doing work glitch where u could just keep the bar near max everytime)


None of whatever happened on 2k17 matters on 2k18


Its as if they think its a completely new franchise or some shyt


fukk 2k
But yeah they for real need to transfer VC and some things from previous games onto the next ones, thats what Fifa does
