As someone who has put HUNDREDS of hours of time into MyFaction, they really overdid it this year. Everything is way too expensive and the grind isn’t worth it anymore. To put it in context, if I want to get just one Deluxe pack to try and get these Amethyst cards, I need to play a minimum of 27 matches to get the roughly 20k MFP to buy a single pack. For a 3% chance of pulling an Amethyst card… leaving 97% for not just a non-Amethyst card but very likely a card from the low level Superstars Series 1 collection so it’s more often than not a waste of time. Either bump up the rewards or bring prices down. This will put off what remaining players this mode has left.
We as players really need to ban 2K. VC has been a problem for years, not just WWE, but NBA as well. I have completed every Live event excluding WM40 content, all of weekly towers, all of proving grounds, & a decent amount of Faction Wars…. I haven’t spent any coins on cards & I only have 290K in MFP… it defeats the purpose
That’s 2K. They get away with the gouge once, they’ll just continue to gouge even harder with every year that follows. NBA2K was the blueprint, and this is just the next iteration of the same strategy.

2K's MY SCAM has to end. I'm not above paying $2.99-$5 for some attires,trons,themes, and maybe moves per character. But, Jesus this card pack is a scam over 50% of us are not getting the PROMISED results. I personally spent around $90 and I got KO and I'd say I got 60% duplicates of made up wrestlers they put in there to milk us. Thank you SmackTalks for calling 2k out over this. Take care of the fans don't screw them.
Imagine spending more than at least a DLC pack for a model we have just with a tattoo added… and an updated face texture (don’t know if it has that) that you don’t notice whilst playing…
They already did. They are a business they don't care if people who are gamblers spent 1000 dollars on this. That's what they want. My advice to everyone is. Don't feed the greed. Falling in love with mf characters is the start of it all. 2K knows it. For some reason people don't want the cc versions. They want the real stuff. This is bad. I personally don't play game modes like this nor games like this. I play wwe2k games but as soon as i pay for the game our business is over. They know there's a lot of gamblers out there. They don't care. If the few people that play MF give 2k this much money and even more. To them that's not bad. They want more tho. That's why imo. People should not even fall in love with MF content.
I also think that for persona/oddity cards, they should make the live events match have no time limit for players to come back at whenever they want and do the match.
So i was using WM Undertaker 14' and the mofo was reversing EVERYTHING. I'd top rope chokeslam and tombstone this mofo and he'd kick out everytime. Then, i switched to Omos (his pin escape is higher than Taker's) and i started winning AND completing the objectives (his taunts are faster and quicker standing heavy attacks). I used Taker 1 more time. Did his taunts, all the objectives and use his Super Leaping Tombstone finisher... ANDRE... STAYED... DOWN!!! But that challenge vs Pink Diamond Rock tho...
The fix for this if your struggling is knocking him out finish all your challenges then superplex andre off the top rope it breaks the ring and instant wins Everytime
What I find funny is that the card market has a persona card filter (which allows you to see persona card that are available to purchase) yet nothing is showing, which judging by how it going there won’t be anything worth significant
This is the real reason that 2K is testing banning Community Creators like Status. Because he was rightfully giving us this stuff for free with no wait time.
I didn't have enough points to purchase the hulk hogan card to play the match for the action figure version. I just accepted it and moved on. They're (2k) not getting anymore of my money. I paid for the wrestlemania deluxe version of the game and that's more then enough.
If this was the last Wwe game and it had regular updates with new characters, yes MyFaction would make sense. But the fact that a new game will come out next year with all the wrestlers that you need to unlock now in the base game, there is no point wasting our money...
It’s 2K, there’s nothing insane about this story to anybody who finally gave up on their NBA chokehold due to the same crap. The player base gives them a fraction of praise and goes along with their routine P2W and microtransactional crap, and they take it as permission to push it as far as it’ll go.
They purposely pad these packs with original character cards and lackluster cards to make you keep spending money. I was excited at the idea of persona cards when they announced it, but the way they make it such a chore to get them unless you spend money is a pretty shady tactic
Status gives the same thing for free. I'll stick to that. It's not like there's an updated entrance or theme or anything. They added his tattoo. Big deal. Status does that every year.
THE punches and promos arent giving the correct amount for duplicates. They are only giving 750 MFP for duplicate emerald, sapphire, ruby and amethyst Punches & Promos cards. When the duplicate emerald should be 4500, sapphire 7500 and ruby 11250 MFP. When you get 2500 MFP for Superstar series 1 gold duplicates.
I really don't see why they can't just add these to the roster with the update instead of screwing the entire player base they have left. Maybe they should spend more time fixing their online servers. I can't even play with my friends because the invite system is broke and it'll randomly disconnect us from the match.
I paid 20 bucks to get enough VC to buy the Hogan card needed to unlock the action figure Hogan card. That's all I'm doing. 400 bucks? You're out of your mind.
This is so damn annoying I've been waiting years for an updated rock just for them to do this... all they had to do was update his tattoo to put in the base game I swear on all that is holy this game always pisses me off. I refused for the longest time to download a nodded version on CC in hope they would update the rock.
Only way to fix this a little better is by introducing the system in other games. Where if you open a pack, that card will not be appearing in your next pack again until you completed the whole collection. No duplicates. Perhaps making the rare ones a little harder but still would be a better option than a fully random generator
It's somehow even worse than that! The mfp reward for dupe cards is bugged for this pack. For a series 1 duplicate ruby card you get somewhere around 10k mff. This pack is bugged and ALL duplicated give you ONLY 750 mfp. Green, Blue, Red or Amethyst, all you get is 750 mfp. Also the
WOW i said the same thing to somebody online and I got a lot of hate messages I’m just saying the truth my faction is boring and a wasted of time i will NEVER pay for my faction, 2K need to step up for next year game like NO SHOWCASE NO MY FACTION and a BETTER STORY for MY RISE.
@@aer0hbklike I said before 2K needs to make my rise better with a better story and have different stories for all the belts like they did in Smackdown Shut your mouth and HCTP.
I haven’t gotten 24 yet, so forgive my idiocy when it comes to the latest version of MyFaction, but the cards still can’t be used on Exhibition of Universe mode, right? Otherwise, it’s cool to unlock these cards, but you still can’t use them for anything but MyFaction, so I don’t see really see the point in paying actual money for a Superstar you can basically only use in one feature of a massive game. It would be like playing Fallout 4 and buying a brand new custom armor that’s only playable in Nuka World. Genuinely, what’s the point?
The problem with this garbage is that the average Joe is smart enough not to waste their money on this but there's a handful, hundreds, or even thousands of people singlehandedly spending thousands of dollars on this stuff. They singlehandedly tell 2K that this is profitable.
I have been saying for the longest: they need to implement the auction house like NBA 2K. That way any duplicates in packs have real value and players could grind for MFP.
The problem with these awful practices is that if 2K sees just a slight revenue increase from people buying currency for these timed events, there's no reason to scratch the mode or make it fair. I haven't spent a single dime on MyFaction since its introduction, but apparently a healthy number does since they insist on the mode being a focal point.
If you get an Amethyst card from Punches and Promos it will either be Kevin Owens or Sami Zayn so even though the chance of is low, the Sami Zayn card is 50/50 of the Amethyst. The biggest annoyance in MyFaction are these Live Events that require you to face Diamond Cards with either gold, emerald, or sapphire cards. The damage you do is extremely minimal.
In Australia (AUD if unfamiliar with the currency exchange term), they charge $164.95 for 400,000 VC, which is $329.90 for 800,000 VC so yes this is Highway Robbery and why "Packs" should be illegal and considered gambling. I agree that the card should be placed in the store and you earn the MFP to purchase.
I spent over £600 to get both cards and I’m not complaining as I payed it myself I’m not blaming 2K for it as I could have stopped myself at anytime but man was i disappointed that The Rock wasn’t Final Boss Rock with Trons, Music & entrance. & the fact that you can’t even put an alt attire on MyFaction characters like Roman & Rock so I’m left thinking what was the point
@@tiktokis_trash your saying it’s my fault that a game forces you to spend this amount of money if you want these rare characters. Grow up mate honestly
I feel like it's much more likely that 2k will just get rid of community creations in the future as opposed to removing MyFaction or making it more player friendly. I thought this "persona card" feature would be a good compromise when I first heard about it, but I should have known better.
I've opened 5 Punches & Promos Deluxe packs. 2 of them didn't have any P&P cards in them and the other 3 just had Nickolas Mann. They need to make that Roman card available again after the live event ends, because that event only lasts a few days and there's no way people like me who can't afford to throw money at the game can get it.
I never ever bother with my faction.. till this past weekend I bought the legend hulk hogan card to unlock the “ figure hulk hogan” and I did it I will spend all the money to unlock one character 🤦♂️
Did you know that if you have a catching finisher you can lift up your opponent doing a running finisher. Just found out while playing Corbin vs reigns. When Roman was doing the spear the lift font shows up briefly.
The cards will probably be available to buy individually in the card market at some point but well too late for the Roman Reigns persona card, that's what I wait for to unlock The rock only got Sami and The Miz from the 20 pack bundle
This is why MyFaction shouldn't exist at all because, thank God I don't get fully into something like this. Micro-transactions, we all know, are a gamer's worst nightmare.....unless they're a gambler and have been gambling before not only in video games, but in Vegas. To all those who LOVE MyFaction, those who hate it AREN'T telling you to stop using it or join in a certain "movement" to remove the mode entirely. I, alongside others who hate it, just gave our honestly held opinions about the mode saying it's bad and it's riddled with our worst nightmare: micro-transactions. If you all love MyFaction and just don't a crap about what others have to say about it, that's totally fine. Just because we all say it's bad and is robbing us of real money doesn't truly mean you'd join in on it out of pure spite. Love what you yourself want to love and hate what you yourself want to hate. It's called "democracy", it's called "freedom of speech".
This is what needs to happen. We need people to spread the word about not spending any money on random packs. That's the only way to stop microtransactions. I love this game for the game play and new features. But it's such a huge letdown with the majority of the dlc and the expectation to spend 4x the amount of the game to possibly unlock a glorified community creation.
This will be the death of a loved franchise because the greed will drive the players away. This is very EA of them tbh. Like the cracks began to slip in 2k23 when they restricted the characters to not be usable outside of the MF mode but this is abhorrent
*If 2K released a seperate DLC pack containing all of the MyFaction Persona cards would you be interested in it?* 🤔
Yes because why pay 400 pounds trying to grind for something that’s impossible to get when you have cc for it
Definitely interested
Yeah, that's totally doable.
A Persona card for Kyle Slickman, obviously.
Yes as long has the price is fair and not outrageous
MyFaction will be the death of the WWE 2K Series. Microtransactions are the absolute worst.

We’re spending on cards for a game in which the servers will be done for in a year and we’ll have no use for the mode. Let’s let that sink in.
@@thunderwolf207summit5 ikr crazy
Imagine spending more than at least a DLC pack for a model we have just with a tattoo added… and an updated face texture (don’t know if it has that) that you don’t notice whilst playing…
This is why I have Meta and a PC. Fuck Myfaction
Same lol
2k really needs to work on currency prices in both NBA2k and WWE2k.
Exactly, this isn’t just a WWE 2K problem.
sadly people keep buying these things a lot so they won't change this
They already did. They are a business they don't care if people who are gamblers spent 1000 dollars on this. That's what they want. My advice to everyone is. Don't feed the greed. Falling in love with mf characters is the start of it all. 2K knows it. For some reason people don't want the cc versions. They want the real stuff. This is bad. I personally don't play game modes like this nor games like this. I play wwe2k games but as soon as i pay for the game our business is over. They know there's a lot of gamblers out there. They don't care. If the few people that play MF give 2k this much money and even more. To them that's not bad. They want more tho. That's why imo. People should not even fall in love with MF content.
WWE needs to ''STOP'' doing business with 2K and find another video game company.
I'm not even attempting this, my wife would divorce me lol
Your Steiner Math was perfect
You had a 100 percent chance of getting it right and you didn’t disappoint
I also think that for persona/oddity cards, they should make the live events match have no time limit for players to come back at whenever they want and do the match.
0:42 Yo that Andre the giant event for this pack is brutal
It's easy as shit
@@akramirez I even added some of the side plates onto the cards I was using I was so close in one watch but lost it
So i was using WM Undertaker 14' and the mofo was reversing EVERYTHING. I'd top rope chokeslam and tombstone this mofo and he'd kick out everytime. Then, i switched to Omos (his pin escape is higher than Taker's) and i started winning AND completing the objectives (his taunts are faster and quicker standing heavy attacks). I used Taker 1 more time. Did his taunts, all the objectives and use his Super Leaping Tombstone finisher... ANDRE... STAYED... DOWN!!!
But that challenge vs Pink Diamond Rock tho...
@@fluffyflufffox1385It took me a bit, but I managed to keep cheesing it through Count-Out wins. Waste of time to beat him legit imo.
The fix for this if your struggling is knocking him out finish all your challenges then superplex andre off the top rope it breaks the ring and instant wins Everytime
Is there a community creation Rock with the Final Boss commentary? That’s the only reason I even thought about grinding for the Rock. The commentary.
never played MyFaction...never will.... Rather gouge my eyeballs out than do this
Same
💯
Me too happy to buy dlc characters but never my faction cards
Same. I don't care for MyFaction at all.
What I find funny is that the card market has a persona card filter (which allows you to see persona card that are available to purchase) yet nothing is showing, which judging by how it going there won’t be anything worth significant
$400 for No new entrance of The Final Boss The Rock !? Oh my god ! I love What's The Status so much. XD.
This is the real reason that 2K is testing banning Community Creators like Status. Because he was rightfully giving us this stuff for free with no wait time.
This is why Myfaction is a joke right now this is why I won't spend on that mode waste of money for crap cards that shouldn't be in a wrestling game
I didn't have enough points to purchase the hulk hogan card to play the match for the action figure version. I just accepted it and moved on. They're (2k) not getting anymore of my money. I paid for the wrestlemania deluxe version of the game and that's more then enough.
That’s way too much to unlock something that should already be on the roster.
If this was the last Wwe game and it had regular updates with new characters, yes MyFaction would make sense. But the fact that a new game will come out next year with all the wrestlers that you need to unlock now in the base game, there is no point wasting our money...
So… let me get this straight, that Rock doesn’t have updated music or tron ? You can get that shit from Community creations for free 😂
Thanks you that that exactly what I say my f is rip off
It’s 2K, there’s nothing insane about this story to anybody who finally gave up on their NBA chokehold due to the same crap.
The player base gives them a fraction of praise and goes along with their routine P2W and microtransactional crap, and they take it as permission to push it as far as it’ll go.
They purposely pad these packs with original character cards and lackluster cards to make you keep spending money. I was excited at the idea of persona cards when they announced it, but the way they make it such a chore to get them unless you spend money is a pretty shady tactic
Status gives the same thing for free. I'll stick to that. It's not like there's an updated entrance or theme or anything. They added his tattoo. Big deal. Status does that every year.
We all new where this was heading when this mode was introduced.
Smacktalks still active? Dope 💪🏼
Now I understand why 2k baned What's The Status. (But now 2k not baned him anymore.)
They banned him for stuff that had nothing to do with MyFACTION.
I pulled the Sami card on my first pack opening on the punches and promos pack. Surprised the hell out of me.
They'd make more money if they just let you buy the card for cash, straight up.
THE punches and promos arent giving the correct amount for duplicates. They are only giving 750 MFP for duplicate emerald, sapphire, ruby and amethyst Punches & Promos cards. When the duplicate emerald should be 4500, sapphire 7500 and ruby 11250 MFP. When you get 2500 MFP for Superstar series 1 gold duplicates.
400 and not even a new entrance. I'm close to quiting my faction
Sad u actually play it
I really don't see why they can't just add these to the roster with the update instead of screwing the entire player base they have left. Maybe they should spend more time fixing their online servers. I can't even play with my friends because the invite system is broke and it'll randomly disconnect us from the match.
I paid 20 bucks to get enough VC to buy the Hogan card needed to unlock the action figure Hogan card. That's all I'm doing. 400 bucks? You're out of your mind.
2K doesn't care what cards you get from the packs. 2K doesn't care if you enjoy the mode. They just want your money.
.....Why? ....Why?
And absolutely no one was shocked. Tye whole point of the mode is to take your money.
How is this even legal ?
Yeah i think I'll wait until WWE 2k25 comes out and play as the updated rock without having to worry about My Faction
No one even plays my faction it's so boring 😂
This is gambling
This is so damn annoying I've been waiting years for an updated rock just for them to do this... all they had to do was update his tattoo to put in the base game I swear on all that is holy this game always pisses me off.
I refused for the longest time to download a nodded version on CC in hope they would update the rock.
QUE?
Only way to fix this a little better is by introducing the system in other games. Where if you open a pack, that card will not be appearing in your next pack again until you completed the whole collection. No duplicates. Perhaps making the rare ones a little harder but still would be a better option than a fully random generator
Yeah I'm already growing tired of this game because of stuff like this.
2k needs to put a locker code so there can a better chance in getting the Sami Zayn card.
This is a WWE themed Slot Machine. - Star Wars Battlefront 2
It's somehow even worse than that!
The mfp reward for dupe cards is bugged for this pack.
For a series 1 duplicate ruby card you get somewhere around 10k mff.
This pack is bugged and ALL duplicated give you ONLY 750 mfp. Green, Blue, Red or Amethyst, all you get is 750 mfp.
Also the
WOW i said the same thing to somebody online and I got a lot of hate messages I’m just saying the truth my faction is boring and a wasted of time i will NEVER pay for my faction, 2K need to step up for next year game like NO SHOWCASE NO MY FACTION and a BETTER STORY for MY RISE.
Not everyone likes to play my rise either lol
@@aer0hbklike I said before 2K needs to make my rise better with a better story and have different stories for all the belts like they did in Smackdown Shut your mouth and HCTP.
I haven’t gotten 24 yet, so forgive my idiocy when it comes to the latest version of MyFaction, but the cards still can’t be used on Exhibition of Universe mode, right?
Otherwise, it’s cool to unlock these cards, but you still can’t use them for anything but MyFaction, so I don’t see really see the point in paying actual money for a Superstar you can basically only use in one feature of a massive game.
It would be like playing Fallout 4 and buying a brand new custom armor that’s only playable in Nuka World. Genuinely, what’s the point?
The problem with this garbage is that the average Joe is smart enough not to waste their money on this but there's a handful, hundreds, or even thousands of people singlehandedly spending thousands of dollars on this stuff. They singlehandedly tell 2K that this is profitable.
Anybody else have the issue of no entrance video when you use a superstar alternate attire?
The future of wwe 2k games is card collecting.
For anyone complaining about MyFaction mode, You were all warned about where 2k was going with it
I have been saying for the longest: they need to implement the auction house like NBA 2K. That way any duplicates in packs have real value and players could grind for MFP.
The problem with these awful practices is that if 2K sees just a slight revenue increase from people buying currency for these timed events, there's no reason to scratch the mode or make it fair. I haven't spent a single dime on MyFaction since its introduction, but apparently a healthy number does since they insist on the mode being a focal point.
If you get an Amethyst card from Punches and Promos it will either be Kevin Owens or Sami Zayn so even though the chance of is low, the Sami Zayn card is 50/50 of the Amethyst. The biggest annoyance in MyFaction are these Live Events that require you to face Diamond Cards with either gold, emerald, or sapphire cards. The damage you do is extremely minimal.
Its not that hard you just have to choose a card with good badges which there is a lot of them in the faction wars rewards cards
In Australia (AUD if unfamiliar with the currency exchange term), they charge $164.95 for 400,000 VC, which is $329.90 for 800,000 VC so yes this is Highway Robbery and why "Packs" should be illegal and considered gambling. I agree that the card should be placed in the store and you earn the MFP to purchase.
I spent over £600 to get both cards and I’m not complaining as I payed it myself I’m not blaming 2K for it as I could have stopped myself at anytime but man was i disappointed that The Rock wasn’t Final Boss Rock with Trons, Music & entrance. & the fact that you can’t even put an alt attire on MyFaction characters like Roman & Rock so I’m left thinking what was the point
You are the reason why this game is so fucking greedy
@@tiktokis_trash your saying it’s my fault that a game forces you to spend this amount of money if you want these rare characters. Grow up mate honestly
I’d pay $400 for ALL of the Rocks attires and looks for each day he appeared BUT ONLY IF THE GAME WAS PERFECT. It’s not.
They should just called it the Nicholas Man pack
I feel like it's much more likely that 2k will just get rid of community creations in the future as opposed to removing MyFaction or making it more player friendly. I thought this "persona card" feature would be a good compromise when I first heard about it, but I should have known better.
The question now is, why would they want to make a dlc worth £30 with these items when they can put them in myfaction and make way more
6:22 Dude... you're talking about 2k, who are owned by Take-Two, who own GTA. Nothing is ever going to change
This is why I don't touch MyFaction. I saw this coming when 2K18 introduced loot crates for the creation suite.
I've opened 5 Punches & Promos Deluxe packs. 2 of them didn't have any P&P cards in them and the other 3 just had Nickolas Mann. They need to make that Roman card available again after the live event ends, because that event only lasts a few days and there's no way people like me who can't afford to throw money at the game can get it.
WWE 2K players will experience the same thing that NBA 2K players go through in the MyTeam mode
I never ever bother with my faction.. till this past weekend I bought the legend hulk hogan card to unlock the “ figure hulk hogan” and I did it I will spend all the money to unlock one character 🤦♂️
Did you know that if you have a catching finisher you can lift up your opponent doing a running finisher. Just found out while playing Corbin vs reigns. When Roman was doing the spear the lift font shows up briefly.
THIS IS WHAT 2K DOES THEY HAVE RUINED NBA WE CAN NOT LET THEM DO THE SAME WITH WWE #BOYCOTT2K
2k needs to do something about us using VC just to get the same cards we have already. VC should equal new cards and the MFP should be random
The cards will probably be available to buy individually in the card market at some point but well too late for the Roman Reigns persona card, that's what I wait for to unlock The rock only got Sami and The Miz from the 20 pack bundle
Something for things you might have missed: Cm punk vs macho man has unique commentary
This Version Of The Rock Should’ve Been In The Game Anyway
I have zero regrets for totally ignoring this mode. This seems like a total pain
And this is why people were worried about MyFaction in the first place because no one likes theses kind of stuff
This is why MyFaction shouldn't exist at all because, thank God I don't get fully into something like this. Micro-transactions, we all know, are a gamer's worst nightmare.....unless they're a gambler and have been gambling before not only in video games, but in Vegas.
To all those who LOVE MyFaction, those who hate it AREN'T telling you to stop using it or join in a certain "movement" to remove the mode entirely. I, alongside others who hate it, just gave our honestly held opinions about the mode saying it's bad and it's riddled with our worst nightmare: micro-transactions. If you all love MyFaction and just don't a crap about what others have to say about it, that's totally fine. Just because we all say it's bad and is robbing us of real money doesn't truly mean you'd join in on it out of pure spite. Love what you yourself want to love and hate what you yourself want to hate. It's called "democracy", it's called "freedom of speech".
I love MyFaction but dude … they need to adjust the points spending for cards and packs that shit is ridiculous to GRIND just to get 1 or 2 packs
This is what needs to happen. We need people to spread the word about not spending any money on random packs. That's the only way to stop microtransactions. I love this game for the game play and new features. But it's such a huge letdown with the majority of the dlc and the expectation to spend 4x the amount of the game to possibly unlock a glorified community creation.
They are also only giving 750 mfp for duplicates, even of the Amethyst cards in these packs
This will be the death of a loved franchise because the greed will drive the players away. This is very EA of them tbh. Like the cracks began to slip in 2k23 when they restricted the characters to not be usable outside of the MF mode but this is abhorrent
