These Diamond Kobe/KD giveaways are STUPID

[calzonesays]

They go around announcing and hyping up each time they hand out codes 2 days in advance to make sure hundreds and thousands of people are all lined up like Black Friday at Walmart.

They release the code, someone who types fast like me enters the code in quickly, I SHOULD be getting the Diamond player, then what happens? It keeps saying "Unable to verify code" (I'm typing it correctly mind you)

Type it in again, and it says They have reached the quantity already.

What is this "Unable to Verify code" BS? Anyone else get this?


Anyway this game blows and all these "Diamond players" are going to be obsolete in a few months anyway.

I agree. Couldn't have entered the code much faster and I got the "unable to verify" messages 4 times. The 5th time was "no codes left". F-2k.

Got unable to verify 3x before saying the codes are all used up. This is some BS.

This is the second time trying, the first is when they had diamond Durant's and then they ****ed up the release for ps4. Absolutely no one was able to get it in PS4. Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me. Never again.

Same thing happened to me. They said it took 6 minutes to use up all the codes, like WTF?


I've got an idea for anyone who's willing to try it with me. Try starting up your NBA 2k14 after they release the code and then go to put it in. It might be a server thing (go figure).

There's a possibility they're putting out more tomorrow.

I liked it better when codes were spontaneously released at random times. If you were playing or home, cool you got one, if not, someone else who was paying attention to twitter got one.

The whole announcing and hyping every single code release is annoying, especially with these "Unable to Verify" code BS. Not fair at all.

Most likely you're going to be too late to even get one like that. More often than not, they're gone in 30 seconds.

It took me 3 tries and I actually got one. I have been on for all the other Diamond codes minus 1 or 2. This is the first one I got other than Ruby Iggy which was kinda cool until literally everybody got him.

The worst was the Diamond KD fail then they re did it like 6 hours later when I was at work.

I like yet dislike locker codes. I get that they need to be rare but it sucks not getting them.

A market is NEEDED. That or some way to make it balanced and rewarding to get rares but not so much as to where everyone can have super bomb squads.
