2K Sports has confirmed the details for NBA 2K14 "CREWS" mode. Unfortunately, it's not all good news for CREW fans.

	You can take your MyPLAYER through his career, build him up in the MyCAREER mode, and prep him for online battles. Your gameday attire will be reflected on your MyPLAYER during matches. Games can be either 3v3 on half-court, or 5v5 on full-court. These will be played on a blacktop court to reflect the pick-up game style of basketball. The games will be to 21. This allows us to focus on the sport of basketball in a unique way leveraging the street-style basketball in a competitive way.

*facepalm*

3v3 for 21 was fine. 5v5? WTF!

	I should also note the settings for Crew games - Superstar Sim. From my time with the game, these were some of my favorite settings, as well as our Community Team Up members who previewed the game early and got hands on impressions. The goal was to make it feel as competitive as possible.

Cool, but what's the point for 5v5 having this and being only games to 21?

I for one love playing street ball in real life, but I hate it in a game.

My guess is that they made it to 21 because of the stamina/fatigue/no subs.

# 6 Optik @ 09/13/13 06:19 PM

This is what they were hyping for 2 weeks with the silly codes?

# 7 yungsta404 @ 09/13/13 06:21 PM

wow they had to nerve to hype up that "crew" is back but completely butcher it. This isnt even crew its blacktop with uniforms and a leaderboard.

And probably the fact that real NBA players don't team up competitively like Crew games and its only real causal. But really? 5v5 with 5 minute quarters will be good enough for the smart guy who doesn't turbo every time.

Like I said before, this isn't "Crew Mode" lol.

Seriously, I respect 2K for at least telling us what the deal was because they could have waited until we bought the game to figure it out like they've done before. Terrible news and I am not really excited about 2K14 at all.

They've really made him look like a fool now, after that video they put of him with the other Team-Up members.

I guess they could let us two myplayers and sub between them. Would be fun If i could switch from point to PF or to a defensive specialist wing.

My 2k hype level at an all time low, games out n 2wks but best part seems to be blocking dunks,lol

Yeah, but then I again, I always find ways to build a 99 overall in weeks for every position except for SF. And that would've been a ball for VC buyers, "LETS BUY OUR WAYS TO MAXED CREWS!!"

this is awful!!!

# 15 green225 @ 09/13/13 06:30 PM

this is bull**** man, we need to fight for them to bring back 2k11 servers.

# 16 Deck @ 09/13/13 06:31 PM

The funny thing is they only gave us jerseys and 5vs5 because we demanded it. They were going to put a leaderboard on 3vs3 blacktop and rename it Crews lol.

But I dont respect them for hyping it up for weeks like the real crew in its real form is coming back when all they did was add uniforms and a leader board to blacktop.

# 18 MarvinOida @ 09/13/13 06:32 PM

LD2k is a real man. He's willing to write this knowing everyone will get mad at him about this. I'm a 50/50 on this, parts of Crew is slowing coming back (which is better than nothing,) but 5v5 as game to 21? Lol... I've played very fun 5v5 21 games with caps but why?

That crew mode is back video looks so stupid now. They should have just called it Blacktop 2.0 and people wouldn't feel the way they do now. Calling it crew mode was a mistake.
