Im one of those people 2k has driven away. They knew people would buy it because of Kobe on the cover and they used his legacy to implement the most predatory money gouging in the gaming industry with Myteam auction house removal. Mycareer has been a money and time pit for years and the servers STILL havent gotten better since 2k17.

i have played 2k every year since 2k18 and this year i just started to try and do a no money spent build i have a full time job and used all my saved up VC from the last 3 season while not even hitting level 40, i had maybe 150k saved up and it didnt even get me to 80 overall it was literally enough to get me to 75 overall. which i thought was crazy. i still am working on my no money spent build and its been 2 weeks of playing for about 10 hours a week, i have made it up to 80 overall and im a casual player with not alot of people to play with and have been losing and wining and it really has made me appreciate the grind of people that do this year in and year out of no money spent. but there is a different level of joy i feel with doing it this way, playing and just saving up my vc not spending it and actually having to be smart with my vc. when i see my overall go up even if its just one overall it is joyful because i know i worked for that. once i max out this build i think im going to do it again on a different build and use less saved up vc because honestly it felt like 2k was just getting boring for me and doing this made me re-enjoy the game. i was inspired by your kobe build badge then seeing everyone like joe do his and solo doing his, so thank you guys for that, but also to anyone it is possible to do no money spent and be a casual. you gotta just keep grinding and believe in yourself

Eventually, I just accepted that I was only going to be playing the vs CPU mycareer mode and I haven't picked the game up in a long time.

PS5 will have 26 and 27, and then 28 or 29 will probably have the next new gen depending when the next console drops. But that’s just based off the ps3 to ps4

Ever notice how you'll be killing it in one season and the next you can't make shit ? It's because they altered the sliders to make you want to make a new build. It's disgusting tbh the greed. After season 7 I finally found this to be true. I've been wondering but it's def a fact now. They made defense super tough and impossible to shoot against and nerfed tf out of offense especially shooting. I literally love the game of basketball and I won't but another 2k. It really sucks because I love basketball man. I have a build that has all HOF shooting badges and I've been getting D'd up by players with NO PERIMETER DEFENSE like none. They're so OP and it just became unbearable after season 7 dropped. It's been bad all year but now it's way too strong

for MyTeam players if you don't buy the HOF pass, you get the bad version of the level 40 card that can't get any of the badges on HOF pertaining to their gem level.

Badge I thought I’d point out that when Take Two publishes their EPS for the quarter the green/red you usually see online is vs. the consensus analyst estimates. If you do better than what the market priced in you beat earnings, if you do worse than the market priced in you missed earnings, so Take Two can still post profits and still miss earnings if it’s not as much as analyst estimates were.

Literally the only sports game that is even approaching "Decent" nowadays is Football Manager and even that is a shell of what it was 5 years ago.

7:20 I don’t think 2K is dead I just feel like they tryna price out the customers that don’t wanna subscribe to the pay to play idea to make room for those who do

For the First time i’m just going to wait for the game to go on sale or I might just not buy it for real. I’m glad to see you sticking up for the community badge. 👏🏾

Did yall forget when 2k use to have attribute boosting sleeves and other accessories when it was strictly black top online

2k isn’t dead simply because it’s the only basketball sim out there but 2k has become complacent and money hungry 🤷🏽♂️💯

Your not looking at the big picture of the creators being the problem. Well not the #1 problem but EASILY 1-3 because yall have a huge influence on people that you seem to not realize. If all yall banded together and told your followers not to spend any money. I bet a lot of people would not spend the money. Defiantly if they seen you not spending the money and showing them they can still play without it. Obviously not everyone is going to care or listen but you would be surprised at how many would ride with yall and try to stop this bs happening.

Yoo I want to let y’all know what I’ve been through as a new player that started playing the game on current gen 2k23 currently standing at 1500 hours of gameplay in those 2 games 23 and 24 so far. I remember my first 300 hours of playing were only MyCareer grinding vc without any friends and sweating to play the best way I can as a 60 ovr getting like 750 vc per game as soon as I managed to get to like 73 ovr I started to play park where nobody really wanted to play with me and i was completely lost I think you already know what happened next i started to spend a lot of money on vc i think if we sum it up spent like 200$ (not including the game itself)ik for some of you guys maybe it’s not that much but where i live 200$ is worth like 800 of my currency and people here are making less money (i’m not making money at all because i’m 15) but for 2k shi like this don’t matter cause the only thing that matters for em is to make as much money as they can.

Me an the boys recently started up a league in the Eras section of the game. Quite literally one of THE ONLY “fun” things about the game. 2k has gotten so far gone from what it used to be. It’s a genuine shame.

I haven't messed with 2k a lot this year. Which is crazy for me. I get on and play my career a little to get my basketball itch out but i mess with u cause you do try and speak on the truth about the bs.

THERE SHOULD BE LEGAL ACTION AGAINST "SIMULATED GAMBLING" UNDERAGE PEOPLE SHOULD NOW BE ALLOWED TO GAMBLE. AND YES THIS IS REAL MONEY.
