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

03:01 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.

Hopefully they atleast fix the 3v3 because in blacktop people just run in circles and shoot 3s which its good they added stamina but hopefully it means something and hopefully not every shot goes in especially bad shot selections. They need to reward people with good defense

Absolutely agree with that. That is where I agree with the sim guys: the game rewards bad, ie casual, behavior far too much. It's focuses so much on "fun", but how is forcing your opponent into a tough shot only to have him drain it in your eye fun?

this was a lousy game for me, didn't get creative with the passes like i usually do, was like 3am, but it's closer to the average crew experience than the last cringe worthy crew vid posted(and the only game of mine posted on youtube).

Right. That wasn't legit crew ball. You should expect that guy to hit every shot being uncapped w/ tendencies hacks lol. Never could understand how people could feel good about themselves after cheating like that.

Another thing that should be added, is locking the positions:
PG can only play PG or SG
SG can play PG SG or SF
SF can play SG SF or PF
PF can play PF or C
C can play PF or C

At least then if I'm playing as my real life 6' self, I don't have to worry about a 7' Sf on me like on Blacktop lol.

And adding onto my previous post:

It'll hopefully help keep Crew more true to the game. 2K11 wasn't as good gameplay-wise as 2K13 is (blocks not included, because one game had too many and this game has none lol) so maybe in that factor alone 2K14 would be more realistic. But also if there's no hacked players, already right there is a HUGE advantage in this years' Crew mode.

No PG should be over 6'6, I mean it's fun trying to recreate a 6'9 Magic for your My Player, but do you really ever see 6'9 PGs? Same thing with 7'6 Centers, it's just not realistic at all.

It would be cool if 99 speed on a 6' guard, meant I was faster than a 99 speed 6'6 guard. Because D-Wade's fast, but Iverson had a way about him where he could blow by people and sneak his way through a whole defense in the blink of an eye...two players who both were fast, but still different.

I'll never understand it either.

I'd say at least half of the Crew community hacked their players, even if they only did it to stay competitive. Like, how could they even come on here complaining there's no Crew? YOU RUINED IT lol.

Only good thing about hacked players was how good it felt beating them.

# 468 BEasy20 @ 08/19/13 04:03 PM

Exactly lol the guy who started the "Bring crew mode back" thread posts a video with a uncapped player. Your the reason it got taken away why come on here and complain

From my experiences some people find it justifiable to hack their players to stay competitive, I'm definitely not one of them. It's like if you're a pro athlete and everyone's taking steroids, so I guess you just join them instead of playing hard and beating them fair? lol..at the end of the day, I wouldn't even take a win if I had to cheat to get there.

Its not even neccessary. My guy was 6'5 and maybe topped out at 89 or 90 overall. Was more than competitive even against the hacked players

Yeah, my crew didn't have problems with the uncapped players. But the all 8' ( or taller) crew could be an issue. First with the over powered "hop-step" into the lane move; and then especially when they realized they were going to lose so they just started trying to dunk so the game would hang.

Umm, of course people would complain about hacked players. They took the mode our for 2 years because of that reason and said it'll be improved. To bring it back w/ what it seems as a watered down mode and still w/ hacks would be a reason to complain.

A lot of people hated hacks in 2K10 and 2K11, but you better believe we would still playing to this day if the servers were still up. Just because we complain about something doesn't mean we don't enjoy the mode. We just want it improved.

# 474 raiderphantom @ 08/20/13 04:47 PM

The crew I ran had no hackers, a couple 99's, and some players who hardly knew basketball and we probably won 2/3 of our games. I almost beat three 10 foot dudes by myself with a legit my player. I ended up losing by like 5 but hey I dropped 57 I think it was. My point is all those people didn't need to hack to stay competitive. That's a bad excuse and everyone that did is just as guilty as the rest. I have no respect for any cheaters whatsoever.

Are you going to cry and complain and say to 2k to ban them because their overalls are better than yours? man....if so...this is going to be a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOng year for some of you. Either get with the program and choose SMART basketball players on your crew, so that no matter who your opponent is you win with basketball I.Q. or just sit down and shut up, because you're just making excuses.

A 99 rated 8 ft PG is a completely different opponent than 99 rated 6'3 PG.

I haven't really paid attention to this thread so pardon me for asking, but can someone let me know if I'm correct...

- Crew will now be played on blacktop?
- Both 3 on 3, and 5 on 5 will be up to 21? {LMAO if that's true}
- Looking at the past couple pages, uncapped players are still inevitable?

No, no its not. It took months for someone to realize how to do it, and they need a tool for something to happen. And that tool was released around April/May. And we can always tell the developer of the tool to not include it for next year/hope that 2K hard codes what was used to cheat.

How bout this:

No one's allowed to brag about how "good" they are if they hack or even buy their my player's 99 overall.

Is it really that hard to just play and get your guy good enough to challenge other people? To this day I'm still on blacktop with 70 overall guys I create just to play with someone new, and I'm still competitive.

Stop supporting laziness and buying your overall.

If you do your homework, there arent many, if ANY crew games on youtube that are short and to the point, that feature game winning shots, or maybe buzzer beater highlights. If there are, post them, and I'll rest my case. Until then, don't assume because i rallied to bring crew back, that I want to cheat to win. My Crew on Xbox 360 was ranked pretty well, and we played against everyone straight up. No huge, gigantic point guards, no hop-stepping, no pump fake to foul glitching, just straight up basketball. 8/10 times we came up with a victory. I'll take that win percentage any day playing straight up basketball. This is what gets me confused. I want to know something. All of you who play crew, or were a part of the Xbox 360 crew community for 2k10 and 2k11, surely you've heard of my crew..Miami Heat Why is it that i would even need to hack my players to beat people?
