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.

Wait, what lol? I highly doubt you ever "demolished" my Crew. To be honest, I really don't even believe we've ever played each other in Crew in 2K10 or 2K11. I am 100% sure I played with and against you in Pick-up games and you was an ultimate cheater. That's how I know about you and from word of mouth So, stop making up stuff lol.

I just don't respect what y'all about period. I seen you play in the pickups. Even though you're a cheater, you know the elite players from the great and so on. You still have to know how to play 2K and have a lot of time to be in the Top 5. I honestly don't think you could beat me, especially in a regular match w/ reg teams. But that's pointless now.

It's almost as if saying Lebron was good when he was on cleveland, but now that he's with Wade and Bosh and Allen, he's cheating to win, so you don't respect him.. I get that you want everyone to play the way YOU want them to play, but it's not happening, and it definitely is part of what makes bumping into random folks online interesting. If everyone played the same way, every game would be boring and predictable.

Lmao. Never. The same way I come at you, is the same way I came at other cheaters. So dont get it twisted lol. My Crew had rules and honestly before we played a team, we probably bumped into each other in a Crew lobby 1-2 times which is crazy. We didn't play people that we knew had hacks, tendencies, hopstepped, and spin dunked all game. Then if we was about to win, y'all would lag us out for the W. I mean what's the point of playing yall? It would be so boring defending the Hopstep and spin dunk all game. We liked people that played ball w/o hacks. Money plays or whatever. Just didn't respect guys that was hacked in any way, hopstepped, or spin dunked all game. We don't want people to play how we want, we just looked for legit people that showed their players and wasnt 8ft+.

Never said you wasn't good. I don't think you're good as you think you are though lol. And someone saying LeBron is cheating compared to what you and you're team do is completely different lol. LeBron can't make games lag when you at the FT line or offense, or get you kicked so you get a L.

We was like ranked 37 or higher. And we started our Crew way later than others (2/17/11). Hopefully, you playing without actually cheating. Let's see if you can really ball without tendencies and etc.

From what I'm understanding, he seems like the same kinda guy that runs back and forth shooting 3's on blacktop, or throwing oops every play...spamming the steal button because there's no fouls, etc.

Just because someone can exploit the cheese over and over doesn't make them good at all.

It's people like that, that ruin online gaming. Being competitive is what I'm all about, but I'd rather lose a game knowing I played 100% fair, then get a win after abusing every exploit known in game. It's not cheating, but it's about the corniest way to win a game, period.

# 504 JasonWilliams55 @ 08/29/13 04:45 PM

I will say what I can... and that is that CREW is still being worked on/tweaked... 3v3 half court and 5v5 full court... blacktop I think is the type of court... but its not arcade, they brought the sim style gameplay to the blacktop, ld2k was mentioning that they want that mode to be competetive but on CG they are limited on what they can give (for customization) due to memory issues.

i think all of this has been said already, but just saying what i heard first hand from ronnie/ld2k

Well, I've never really played 3v3 Blacktop in 2K13, so I don't know how he played in that mode. But in 2K10 and 2K11. Him and other cheaters was worse. Shooting 3's, throwing oops, and things like that and it being successful would be me and my teams fault.

So I have no problem w/ that stuff. What they did was actually cheat or exploit the game w/ hacked players and w/ tendencies. Also adding they played gimmicky by hopstepping and spin dunking. Then would lag you out of a game if you was about to win.

Exactly. I am not into that cheese vs sim argument stuff because they are both stupid. Specially when "sim" people say stuff like, "You're shooting too many 3's in a game." And etc. That stuff is very dumb to me. I just play ball and I am not going to cheat you.

My guy was only 6'0" and still gave dudes problems. 2K11 was the most balanced 2K, so I felt like everything could be contained besides a very skilled spin dunker and someone that hopstepped. That's all I had a problem with and people that hacked. Everything else was fair game online.

Thanks for the info JWill. It might not be exactly Crew, but it seems like it would be at least like Pickup games from 2K10 and 2K11, which is a big improvement over 3v3, no rules, and up to 21.

So... Reading between the lines, I noticed you mentioned that crews would be limited by the capabilities of current gen. Perhaps an even greater crew type mode is in store for next gen?

how much memory does it take to give us jerseys? ugh.

# 509 yungsta404 @ 08/29/13 06:00 PM

Not having jerseys or custom courts doesnt bother much at all. Its all just flash to me. The minimum requirements I want crew to have is.

Full Court 5 v 5.
4 quarters.
The same NBA rules as a regular quick game.
Sim Sliders.

If they give us all of that I will be happy.

I dont think not having jerseys is a negative.

This gives us the opportunity to be creative and create your own customized crew uniform from whatever they have in the shop. Im sure they will probably have some jerseys in the myplayer shop.

Just have to get all your crew members to agree to wear the same thing.

Exactly. I feel the content in the MyPlayer store will Improve and are going to be much better in terms of creating a jersey. Like, Pink Top, White Shorts. You can't do that in CAT. I hope they improve CAT though, everything is too generic.

BAM! you found centers, but now you need to see what type of center he is, so you ivite him/her into your party and see if they want to try out for your crew, so you take em to the blacktop, or run a crew game. That would be so sick! NEXT GEN...here we come...

Not gonna quote your other thing you wrote way too much. But go back and read you post with the video it never said " Searched Online" so I was right to assume it was you. And all you did in that massive paragraph of nothing was confirm what I said that your players were hacked so I dont really get the point of writing that huge response lol

nope. it's all about the jersey. that signifies, and solidifies the team.

# 514 bottledwaterfan25 @ 08/29/13 07:04 PM

It kind of looks like we are gonna have this mode confined to the blacktop. If so ill give it a fair shot before I criticize too much, but can we at least have that stupid ****ing tree removed from the corner that makes the right side of the court dark?

Just for the fact that the mode had way more integrity (up until the last couple months), and you could rely on the fact that everyone was on an equal playing field.

Lol all those crews was bums . 7ft plus at every spot , hop stepping , pump faking dump trunks . And if you beat them , they'd lag it out . Pretty much the reason crew has been gone.

If u hacked, you were trash IMO point blank.

# 517 MarvinOida @ 08/30/13 01:35 PM

Guys, just stop fighting about the past, I'm near 100% theres going to be NO WAY to get hacked players playable on Crew for 2K14 for CG and NG. (Assuming that Crew makes it to NG, which is inevitable.)

Its all good, hopefully this year theres less glitches and more back-to-basics basketball.

You make no sense bro you already said you hacked your player what you mean everyone but your team cheated? Regardless if you were 8 ft or 6'9 you still had a hacked player lol

# 519 Tomb Of God @ 08/30/13 08:02 PM

LD2K dropped a little crew nugget in the livestream today mentioning that jerseys would be in, however whether they were designed and whether they were in use for arenas/blacktop were not specified.

http://www.twitch.tv/2k/b/453833042

Around the 3:46:30 mark they start to talk about crew for those interested.

# 520 videlsports @ 09/03/13 11:09 AM

I'm glad it's in for those who want it But I' just stick to Online.
