Watch live video from 2K on www.twitch.tv

During the 2K Sports NBA 2K15 livestream, the team announced Crew Mode is returning for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 only.

Here is a list of details from LD2K via the livestream:

Crew mode will feature 5 vs. 5 matches.
Full NBA rules on a hardwood floor, which will include the home team’s logo.
Custom jerseys will make a return.
You will be able to start 5 vs. 5 hardwood matches with 3, 4 or 5 players.
3 vs. 3 halfcourt blacktop matches are available or you can select NBA Rules for 5 vs. 5.
If you have 3, your game will auto fill the missing positions with players from the team you chose.
You will be able to select which each player’s position is. For exammple: If you are a SG, you can select it and the AI will fill in the missing positions you don’t take.
The fill players are NBA players from the team you selected when creating the Crew.
When creating your Crew, you can select an NBA team, as well as team playbook.
Leaderboards are in.

Look for more news on features for Xbox One and PlayStation 4 later this week, including the NBA 2K15 trailer, which will be revealed by Kevin Durant.

The fact is that 2K thus far is just milking last gen buyers because they know nextgen buyersare gonna buy regardless.

That's the point of business, to maximize your profits. I'm not surprised.

Thank you 2k. This made my day.

"How little they care about next gen"

I'm pretty sure next gen is their main focus and last gen is just an afterthought and they decided to put this in to make the last gen happy and to test out the reception of it for next gen. And which gen got a fully customisable Association mode with all new features? Certainly not last gen. Stop making stupid accusations.

Lol at all the crew lovers getting irate. Maybe everyone else wouldn't be so dismissive of you if you stopped creating dozens of threads on Crew, keep it in one place. And if you stopped belittling other modes and proclaiming that Crew is all that matters.

# 226 green225 @ 08/09/14 10:13 AM

so what are you guys hoping for with the mode? i'd be happy with the same thing as 2k11, just updated. happy to see we'll get our logo on the court, and not the yellowness from 2k11. it would be nice if we could challenge certain crews, though i doubt they added that in. crew online seasons would be crazy. remember last year before the game came out they were advertising crew season and playoffs, maybe they'll put that in this year? most important thing for me is they fix the games reporting problem. nothing worse then winning a hard fought game only to get the L.

Brehhh if they added the challenge any crew part we could do like virgin gaming and get paid to crew up that'd be ridiculous!!

But what I honestly expect for US (got next gen yesterday) is that 2k11 crew plus courts and that's really it.

Now what I'd like added in is a different story. But I myself would be content with the same crew ps3 has.

My only worry is vc being an issue. They need to take that out and make everyone earn their points that would make crew sooooo much more fun versus playing against 99's on day one.

As long as the servers work fairly well I think everything looks good. Real rules on a full court in an NBA arena...I'm assuming 4 5 minute quarters like it used to be. This looks great! Can't wait.

Whats with so much hate on buying VC. I'm an older gamer with a job and can't play more then 2 hours, if that, a night. 2k11 took me 3 months to get my guy in the 90s. It helps me out enormously that I can spend a few bucks to get my guy competitive.

# 231 313entlogic @ 08/10/14 10:29 PM

Point is 98% of people who buy vc are lazy and want to exploit the game while us honest gamers suffer through 99's on day one.

If it takes you 3 months to build your guy up then so be it, shouldn't be able to buy your way to the top while most of us are playing 82+ games.

Not to be an a hole but I'm pretty sure most of us have responsibilities outside of gaming that don't allow us to play all day so so with the free time we do have we go out there and play.

Bottomline people exploit the game with vc. And it's not like you or anyone else purchase a small amount of vc when you can make your guy 99.

Imma play devils advocate here. Playing 99s may be annoying on the first day but to say people are exploiting the game just because they bought VC is kind of ridiculous its not like they hacked their player or something. A 59 or 99 a bum player is a bum player its all about the person behind the controller.

Well really 2k is exploiting those 99 hacks by charging them. Smart business plan really is, just I dont wanna hear from them how it's all about the quality of the game when this vc issue proves otherwise.

And so would guys like him who are busy just get a hack myplayer if we were capable to do so again?

And no doubt I can still handle these 99 cats who don't know ball it's just annoying that we get rid of hacks only to have them be able to pay to get back overly dominant AGAIN.

I'm actually quite glad that Crew is only coming to last gen 2k proved last year that they can't make a current gen game.
2k14 was probably the worst game I've ever played.

Yes, just like how I'm stuck at all star break because I have to download 2k's patch to continue. Going back to my ps3 now.

# 236 LoSoisNiCEx414 @ 08/13/14 02:52 AM

There will be a mode similar to crew on next gen. . Wont be called crew because its said to offer more... On the live stream yesterday Ronnie & LD hinted at there being a reason to play the "crew games" so ik thinking it will function like a lg & have playoffs, & stuff like that. Said they cant really talk about it until like Mid next month after the MyCareer info comes out. Kept saying they know what we want from crew the qtrs,refs,arena,etc

If i can get my guy to play like I wanna for just a few bucks, i'd gladly pay for it.

I'd rather not face 99 overall players in any form. FIFA and NHL show a way it can be done better than NBA 2K has so far.

Anyway, wasn't there supposed to come the crew info on next gen? Where's that?

In teh recent stream, they said the info about next-gen crew would be close to launch, as it builds on other announcements

# 240 LD2k @ 08/16/14 02:23 AM

Incredibly happy to finally bring this mode back for our fans. This will be very fun and even KSpade's feedback on it has affected some things (like going from 6 to 10 people in a Crew) among other things. I've been saying this will be the year of the fans and we started with this announcement

PS: who's Crew am I going to? Hmmmm...
