I anticipate 2K could apprentice a lot from FIFA on career and gm modes. I just afresh got FIFA 17 and while it's not absolute they accept done those modes able-bodied imo. There's a adventure like approach that Cheap NBA 2K18 MT has cutscenes and all that stuff, but for me it's actually a added acute story. You accept practices too but you can sim those practices and still accretion new attributes, but just at a slower rate.

That's the added thing, you acquire attributes from your practices and don't accept to use Vc and cutting practices to ability your abounding potential. Even just arena accustomed amateur and hitting goals agnate to accolades just beeline up increases your attributes.

Now, 2K will never yield a assignment or apprentice from how FIFA does it because it would actually spiral with their money authoritative arrangement (aka affairs VC). But to me it makes for a career approach that is fun to grind.

Career approach caps accept dead the approach entirely. It's not the story, I abandoned couldn't accord a bits about that, and the accustomed "have your own gym" affection causes antic bulk times that I hate. But not accepting able to accomplish an even close to approved NBA amateur is stupid. You can't even archetypal your bold afterwards your admired players. I adulation the brand bullwork and all that but the caps accept got to go. (I aswell absence accepting able to buy stats individually, I abhorrence the pre-packaged stats).

People consistently say that about VC... but the affair is that abounding abounding amateur accept decidedly bigger RPG adventures and still advertise micro-transactions like crazy. It's not an alibi at all. It's not a reason. Corporate acquisitiveness isn't what causes 2k to be shitty - it's arduous lazyness and a abridgement of fucks to accord for what the players want.

I would accede with that as well. I don't affliction about the adventure at all either. That's the affair I forgot to acknowledgment in my aboriginal column as able-bodied is that FIFA has a non-story career approach besides the adventure based one. It's basically like 2k13 career approach (I've abandoned played 2k13 and 2k17) but there's no cool adventure or cut scenes. You just play amateur and akin your player. If 2K would just accord me that aback and not accomplish me play the impaired practices (the practices wouldn't be as bad if the endless times weren't so brainless long).

This year's adventure wasn't bad, and the endorsements and accepting are fine, but they charge to stop bushing the cosmos with barmy bullshit. I'm so goddamn annoyed of cogent Denver that I'm not cutting about with him, or accepting the aforementioned text from Justice that "we should accumulate this up".

Just like with their GM allure system, 2k doesn't accept that sometimes beneath is added with that nonsense. A little bit to advice add some acidity to the abandoned is accomplished but it shouldn't be a chore.
