He was saying it costs that much to turn on the servers :D
Got back on, didn't lose any progress. That's good news.

Turn Server back on and redeem coins = 35,000 VC
:drum:
This was going to be one of the games I purchased when I pick up my PS4 but I really have not heard anything other than it looks really good but plays the same as current gen. Throw in all this VC mess and there is no way I am rewarding this kind of behavior toward customers. Madden and Fifa look like they will be my only games until Thief hits in Feb.
Spoiler: show
I have mostly enjoyed playing this, but they definitely have some kinks to work out.
I don't like that the injury storyline appears to be the only path to the court.
Sometimes I lose teammate points for passing to an open man. It says "bad pass selection." I guess that means the player I passed to is on a cold streak or something, but how am I supposed to know that?
I restarted MyCareer after I figured out how to play the game a little (the rookie showcase had been the first time I played ANY hoops game since EA's last college basketball game :D). I couldn't figure out how to change my player's name. Not a huge deal, just a little odd.
The VC situation is interesting. I didn't read the full article and haven't messed around with other modes, so I don't know the full scope. I understand if the VC you earn in MyCareer is only good for that player. But I'm pretty sure the first time I played I started with, like, 6000 VC. Shouldn't I always start with that? I didn't get it when I restarted. What about VC that you purchase? If you restart, do you loose all that too?
5,000 VC Valid till Mon 30th
Xbox One and Playstation 4: N14PS-F7TY4-Y82X4-27KRS-6EJDA
Between the VC crap and the servers apparently sucking, definitely glad I bought FIFA on Thursday instead of NBA 2K. Maybe I'll look at it in a couple months if the price gets cut or try to rent it. Until then, keep the impressions and comments coming!
Yeah I tried today and still can't get on to redeem the codes.

Dev continues to actively work on server concerns. Will update you when I know more.

Wow, looks like servers are still down.
Yep. I've been playing Live Ultimate Team all afternoon.

This sums up a lot of my thoughts as well. Personally at first I loved the story mode but then I quickly realised how scripted it is. There really isn't a lot of free will. Plus some of the logic makes no sense. You lead you team in scoring for several games and then get in a fight protecting your teammates and your benched and threatened to be demoted... then the next game with less minutes you score less points and now you fall to 8th spot... yeah okay...
2k's story mode is awesome BUT I think it is too over the top in some areas. Some weeks you "Play" more story than you do games. The whole rivalry will Ellis is stupid IMO and actually detracts from my interest in the mode. Frankly player development needs to be more organic.
Servers still down :fp:

2k Cares, they really do. Want to buy a hoodie?
Even the link to buying their hoodie is broken. :D
That's exactly what I was thinking last night. Where are all the investigations and threats of lawsuits and everything else that people have been doing or bitching about when it comes to Battlefield 4. And yet, nothing on NBA 2K when, from my observer standpoint, the 2K issue is worse than the BF4 issue.
I don't think anyone filing a lawsuit against either one of them are idiots. They both made promises and hyped the shit out of it only to release completely broken games. They both more than deserve to be sued.
...and I don't know about worse. Battlefield 4 was quite literally unplayable at launch and for several weeks after for most people. They've got most of the connection problems sorted out now, but now it's riddled with hit detection problems, lag in some games, unbalanced weapons, and just about anything else you can think of.
They're both pretty fucking bad.
The odd thing is it wasn't ever unplayable for me. Hence a lawsuit is pretty stupid. Lag, unbalanced weapons, that's in EVERY shooter, and no one has sued.
2K is unplayable because I can't even access it.
I didn't think you bought it right away? The PS3/360 versions were absolutely 100% unplayable for the first few days or so after launch, and then was really spotty after. The next gen versions were very spotty right away and after a few weeks, it seems they got the connectivity issues sorted out.
...and it's not just the unbalances. Shit, check the threads on Battlelog. People still can't connect, people falling through the ground, people getting their systems locked up, etc...I mean, there's still some really bad stuff going on. I've had a few crashes here and there, but that doesn't mean other people aren't experiencing much worse. Besides, when Microsoft starts refunding people for Premium status, you KNOW something is majorly fucked up with the game.
The stupid thing is that it could have been all avoided. Don't rush the game to beat Call of Duty, put a little love into it, and boom, excellent product that will still sell millions of copies.
Played next gen from day one. Didn't play PS3 except for renting it for a week before the PS4 came out. Didn't have problems there either.
The fact of the matter is, Battlefield 4 is more than playable for me, and I can't even ACCESS what I want in 2K.
I have only had a few instances of not being able to load into the 2k servers. Frustrating, no doubt and if a publisher is going to go this route they need to make sure it works. I have played every game of my career and am in the second season around game 52. Have really enjoyed the game to the point I can say I have gotten my monies worth. With that said, it sucks massive hippopotamus balls to tie so many trophies to this VC crap. I know, I know, it is all about micro-transactions and driving them post sale, but it is getting ridiculous to the point of looking like my favorite game company, EA.
In other news, requiring me to be on your servers to play my solo game sucks those same massive (drained now) hippo balls.
Again, not everyone is going to experience the connection problems. PS3/360 servers were down for everyone for the first couple of days or had so much lag that it wasn't playable. Even now with all the connection issues fixed, it's still a broken game due to how much shit doesn't work as it should.
Don't take it as me defending NBA, either. It's in the same boat, IMO. Hyped up as being amazing and turning out to suck.
Looks like the servers are up.
Ugh.
I think I am going to wait for 2k to tell us the servers are working before I try this again. :down:
Here is another one found at OS.
Need some VC for NBA 2K14? Use the following locker code for Xbox 360 and PS3 to get 5,000 VC for free. It expires on Monday, January 6th.
N14PS-PQ9AD-MDK5L-QXTHX-JHQN3
So it combined a generic player randomly generated with my current career progression on MyPlayer? :fp:
Think I might just start over unless I can edit him back.
Edit under options from the main menu, before you select MyCareer.
Whew. Thanks man.

And one of my older codes that was supposed to be good til last night expired :fp: Guess they go off of eastern time.
On the bright side, no progress lost on MyPlayer, and got my guy re-edited. Spent a lot of VC doing upgrades on him too. I was already getting 20 a game the last four or five, so he'll be a superstar in no time.
I have had that bs new myplayer come up a few times when the servers are buggy. Just close the app and relaunch. If it ever erases my career..........well "hulk smash"...........
New VC code courtesy Ronnie 2K:

He just posted the following, so it appears the PS4/XB1 code above isn't correct.

Those who got my first tweet with the #LockerCodes enjoy the bonus 10K MTP that was going to be in the app next!
What is MTP?
