NBA2k Season 1 Pro Pass?!

[john]

When did 2k start copying CoD's cash grab with season pro pass? I saw it in the new video relased today. I skipped the last 2 2k's. and preordered 2k25 cuz we finally got 'NEW GEN' only to find out 2k's implemented a page out of CoD's Cash grab playbook.. lame

[john]

Where the bleep have you been? All these sports games have been major cash grabs for a good decade now. Yearly release, barely any updates, hilarious special additions (This one has a $150 version, what in the absolute bleep?) and so many other cash grab things.

For pre-ordering and buying this, you perpetuate the problem.

to be fair, it includes league pass which basically costs $149.99..

How so? You buy a "game" that is full of bad practices, essentially telling EA and 2K and all these slug organizations that it's totally ok to be human garbage! People will still buy it. :)

So sad but so true copying and pasting while charging crazy prices for a game that honestly should be f2p considering the amount they'll force people into paying for VC

[john]

hm.. starting to regret my purchase as i'm reminded of the gameplay... but, but, but, they finally gave us new gen grafx! starting to feel like a sucker..

[Imperix]

Yeah we desperately need some competition in this space, 2k understands they're the only game in town, and they can & do get away with whatever they want. As SharpWits stated, it's not going to change until the community hits a breaking point and decides they wont support this predatory business model any longer.

Pro pass? nah screw that I'm not ever touching that crap.

i meant the ridiculous grinding to lvl up myplayer.. trying my hardest not to spend money on vc.. and ultimately giving up and buying.. :(

[john]

I've been playing 2K a long time and I never bought VC (my record is trash too 😂). The best way to level up for free is to start a 2K Community and have people help you to level by playing with you, because the hardest part about grinding is random players won't team with you if you are low level, at least that's how it is on console... I never played on PC before.
