Oct 14, 2016 11:11 AM EDT

Looking for NBA 2k17 Cheat Codes? We have good news for you. Latest reports say some codes and cheats are still working even though developer 2K Sports recently released a patch for the game. Now, here are some tips on how to get infinite VC and Grand Badges.

At NBA 2k17's main menu, go to "Play Now", then select "Play Now Online", and pick a Tier 4 team. At the start of the game, immediately foul a player from opposing team, then pause the game and choose "Quit". The process will give you approximately 500 VC. Repeat the process to get another 500 VC.

Take note that after quitting for a second time, you should close the game entirely by resetting the system. Also, some players reportedly got a soft ban that lasts between 10-15 minutes for doing this NBA 2k17 cheat, but there are no reports of permanent player bans. This glitch was successfully performed under an unpatched version of NBA 2k17, so be aware before updating the game.

Furthermore, players can get Grand Badges in the game by accomplishing specific tasks. Badges provide temporary buffs in MyCareer matches to boost player's chances to win a game. For example, there's badge that allows players to shoot from anywhere on the court to score.

For Personality badges, you can get the Spark Plug badge by coming off the bench with at least 7 points. Also, winning an NBA Championship gives you the Championship DNA badge.

There are also Playmaking badges that are suited for point guards. To get the Dimer badge, dish out 300 assists in 20 games. And you can receive the Lob City Passer badge by making 50 ally-oop assists in a single season.

Of course, if there are badges for offense, there are badges for defense too. Earn the Rim Protector badge by blocking 100 shots in a single season, and get the Charge Card badge by drawing 7 charges in a single season.

You can also get free VC and items by watching NBA 2KTV. In the game's main menu, head to NBA 2KTV, then watch the current episode. Answer the questions in the video. In each correct answer, you get a freebie.

The latest episode of NBA 2kTV can also be seen on the game's mobile companion app, "My NBA 2K17."

Meanwhile, the NBA 2K17 Update 1.04 is now available on PS4. The new update weighs 7GB and contains some of the much-needed patches. Read the complete patch notes here.
