Sure, they did the little Spotlight drop after Steph broke the three-factor report, however it looks like in MT 2K23 we continuously had epic Spotlight Sims to grind. I leave out that. I additionally loved how beyond Spotlight Sims had sure necessities, commonly tied to the usage of a sure quantity of gamers from precise groups. This introduced a layer of method to the squad constructing, and it introduced a few intrigue to the public sale residence as expenses for sure gamers fluctuated.

I'm going to throw out an concept: supply us a fixed of Spotlight Sims wherein we play every crew 3 instances to earn a diamond card from that crew's records. Let's take the Rockets as my instance. Game 1 could be towards the '90s Rockets led via way of means of Hakeem Olajuwon. Game 2 will be the 2008 squad with Yao and T-Mac. Game three will be the cutting-edge (rebuilding) Rockets.

The trick could be that the squad we use has to suit (or be decrease) than the general score of the crew we are gambling towards. So for instance, if we are gambling towards Yao and Tracy McGrady, we are able to likely carry a purple diamond or multiple diamonds to suit them, however for the sport towards the 2022 Rockets we're going to be fortunate if you want to manage to pay for a ruby. This will make for a few innovative squad constructing (specially if we ought to use a sure quantity of Rockets gamers) and that could be virtually a laugh.

Then, as 2K has already carried out withinside the beyond, beating all the groups in a convention offers us a purple diamond from that convention, after which beating each crew offers us an opal. It would not ought to be an opal LeBron or some thing loopy (aleven though that could be extraordinary), however for gambling all of these video games it must nonetheless be some thing respectable like a juiced opal Jim Jackson or Joe Smith.

Packs, Packs, And More Packs

MyTeam revolves round packs as it's how 2K makes cash. (By the manner, what's up with the % expenses? Has the price of residing long past up that plenty in California?)

But I marvel if 2K may not upload extra grindable content material due to the fact the studio heads assume it'll have an effect on the quantity of cash humans spend on packs. I in my opinion assume that having extra loose playing cards could carry extra humans into the mode and get them invested, after which consequently they had be extra willing to spend cash to enhance their crew. After all, permit's be honest, the huge spenders and % addicts are going to be losing coins in this recreation regardless of what (that is a hassle to speak about any other day).

Also, in the event that they supply us loose playing cards, it is now no longer like the ones are going to be playing cards that generally promote packs, like a T-Mac or MJ. Coincidentally, there are loads of different gamers in the course of NBA records that get no MyTeam love, so it looks like there's a neglected possibility right here.

This takes on a fair more unusual context proper now with Omicron sweeping via the NBA. There had been such a lot of extraordinary NBA video games deserving of Moments playing cards (and Moments agendas to earn the ones playing cards). I'd love to look an schedule wherein if I hit a three-pointer with any Lakers participant with 15 seconds left of an beyond regular time recreation, I can earn a diamond Austin Reaves. That card could in no way headline a % drop, however humans could be hyped to have some thing precise like that to perform.

I've stated this a zillion instances earlier than, however one in all nowadays I'm hoping we get a respectable P.J. Tucker — who I do not assume has had a card on the grounds that his playoff moments card from 2K23. He's an NBA champion now for crying out loud, positioned a few admire on his call!

So, 2K, simply supply us a few different gamers we are able to earn. Please. Or on the very least, supply us extra approaches to earn a brand new % right here or there. The one undertaking recreation with every content material drop is first-rate and all, however for a few humans, when they play that one recreation they may be carried out. Put new packs on forums, or in Limited, or replace the wheel spin in Clutch Time. I can say from revel in that once in a while if I get a loose % from a undertaking recreation or locker code, and that % offers me a brand new ruby or some thing to whet my appetite, I'll get the itch and move open multiple packs withinside the Buy MT 2K23.
