NBA 2K14 Features Crew Mode - 3-on-3 or 5-on-5

04:01 PM - August 14, 2013 by Steve_OS

The achievement list teased the announcement earlier, but 2K Sports has now confirmed NBA 2K14 will feature Crew Mode. As Shade8780 points out, it looks like it could be current-gen only, at the very least we won't know about its status on next-gen just yet.

	For those asking, yes full court 5v5. Community Team up guys were playing a 3v3 halfcourt game. CREWS 3v3 or 5v5 at this time.

I honestly don't understand what they were thinking when they made 3 v 3 half court an option. Should be 5 v 5 full court no matter what. If you don't have 5 fill it with NBA players.

Arena - Could care less if its in an Arena or on the Blacktop. As long as the game i'm playing is based on real basketball. Meaning 4 quarters and a Ref. The videos from the team up guys I watched said they didn't see any shooting fouls so that'll need to be fixed.

Jerseys - Could care less if I have the ability to customize them. 90% of the people you played had ridiculous jerseys and made the game look stupid. Just give me the Home and Away jersey of any NBA jersey in the game.

The simpler the better in terms of the customization theres really no need and IMO that was a part of the problem with lagging

As long as its real quarters its fine IMO. The damn jerseys in CAT Are fugly. Everyone would probably go get a jersey/shorts from the Shop.

Exactly why waste VC on getting a NBA teams jersey in the shop. Just let me pick one for my crews baseline.

Agree with you 100% 5 v 5 real quarters and a Ref and theres nothing wrong with the mode IMO. If people want an Arena so bad fine just make one standard arena. All the customization is just extra things for the server to be worried about.

Yeah. I think its actually more better than the CAT. I mean, we can create the most funniest uniforms possible using combos in the myCareer closet. I mean, throw on a Pink shirt and Camo Shorts, boom, a Uni.

Don't get why people complain about the littlest of things. 5v5, 7min, HoF is all I need.

Yea its like people are avoiding the fact that theres going to be 5 v 5 fullcourt and I cant imagine that being without fouls or a game to 21. All people are worried about is creating courts and jerseys I dont really get it

People are just nitpicking. Which is good/bad. I just find it funny that the most complaining about crew are close to the newly registered/least active guys on OS.

Example of an average Crew Guy
"hey guys, we are working on gameplay so the game plays like the NBA for NBA 2K14"

*cricket*

"Hey guys, here's some really really early alpha footage of Crew in 3v3"

"FUUU WHAT IS THIS ?" "RIPOFF MAN" "NO JERSEYS NO BUY!" "I FEEL DUPTED"

Honestly lmao. What difference does it make if your playing a 5 v 5 game in an arena or not. As long as the game tracks my stats and I have the leaderboard i'm happy. The only reason id have a problem is if you can only play with 5 humans. As long as I can have 2 or 3 players fill me up with CPU and lets go. I wouldnt even call this nitpicking 3 v 3 halfcourt is ridiculous. Thats not basketball

The thing id like to see more than any arena or jersey is the game face option EA has. I just made one on NCAA and it actually looks like ME. I didnt even use the picture method because that was too much work I just moved the face sliders around and got a real HUMAN looking creature

Exactly. As long as I get some quarters, real games, and CPU players, I'm down for crew. I don't care if its water down, its all about fun. And if me and my 5 friends can beat everyone in the Leaderboards, you're damn right we don't care if its blacktop and we're all in different clothes. NBA2K Online in China has crews like that and no one has been complaining there.

Haha nice to see your warming up to the crew idea.

Ill be honest earlier I wasnt too happy but ive been thinking about it. Once you get past the cosmetic changes that they made and realize theres still 5 v 5 basketball with better gameplay im pretty excited. The only thing that could ruin it for me is that I cant play 5 v 5 with 3 people. If you arent able to get CPU players then id be disappointed

# 271 billll @ 08/15/13 03:06 AM

I would prefer it be in a gym for the presentation and atmosphere. That being said, my main concern is the way that blacktop plays. That MyPlayer blacktop plays like TRASH. People just jack 3's and get dunks all game long. The only thing 5v5 needs to do is introduce some realistic sliders and I would be highly satisfied.

Im sure they fixed that. All the team up guys seem to be very happy with the gameplay they just were turned off by the idea of it being 3 v 3 but they were able to get that changed

Oh I've been the one saying that everyone is overreacting. This is 2013, I'm surprised everyone is still trusting companies. I was expecting this to happen. As a bonus, people complaining about old footage! Cool!

Funny thing. 3v3 crew is different from MyCareer Blacktop. As MyCareer Blacktop is a return feature. Or at least that's how I'm interpreting this. Have you also read the gameplay improvements? It sounds great and is great news.

Your going to get 5 v 5 fullcourt games with a leaderboard and stat tracking. The gameplay in 2k14 is going to be much improved than 2k11.

So does the lack of creating jerseys and an arena make it not the "Real Crew"?

Doesnt make sense to me considering everyone I played had some of the worst jerseys and court colors ive ever seen. So I dont get the problem of leaving that out. Im sure when the final product is announced everyone on your team will end up wearing the same thing whether it be jerseys or same colored shirts

IMO keep it simple give teams the choice of an NBA jersey and just play basketball. Everyones gotta start looking past the cosmetic changes to realize theres still going to be a 5 v 5 game with improved gameplay

Maybe they should show new footage and this 5v5 Crew mode we've been hearing so much about instead. Until then, the worry and complaints are justified.

My understanding is that 5v5 crew didn't actually exist at the time of the video's filming. It was only after Shake and KSpade had reservations about supporting 3v3 Blacktop labeled as Crew that the devs agreed to implement 5v5 Crew using the existing Blacktop assets.

Like you said it wasnt added until after the guys asked for it. When was the team up like 2 weeks ago? Probably under construction as we speak. But I understand your concern cant be confident after what they thought was acceptable with 3 v 3

Can't wait for this I know it's gonna be for next generation as we'll.

it isnt just cosmetic changes that people are upset about its not having things like a full game with 4 quarters, and basic nba rules such as reach in fouls, shooting fouls, 3 sec calls etc...

While ive been posting Im assuming that will be all added into the 5 v 5 version. A full court game to 21 is a joke. But in the video there was a reach foul however the team up guys said they saw no shooting fouls. I know they asked for all those things so Im just assuming that with the 5 v 5 it will be a real NBA game. But your right until they are announced it is something to be upset about
