Nba 2k21 platforms5/7/2023 ![]() VC can be earned for free, but it takes a long time to earn even a single pack which, in this lootbox system, could end up being VC down the drain.Įven M圜areer, the game’s story mode, is infected with VC. You can’t accuse 2K of neglecting on the court play, but all roads seem to lead back to MyTeam, and the possibility of players spending more real money. That means you need to constantly buy - often with real money, though grinding is possible - new players and packs.
