Not a dealbreaker for me but it is a letdown that we cant play with legends online. Would love to take penny, baby shaq, nick anderson, and 3-d online and whoop up on some heat/lakers/thunder/classic bulls teams. It would definitely add more fun to the game because playing another human is more fun then playing the cpu.

It seems like online is getting the shaft again. First it was severs, lobbys, online options and settings, online association, now its ths. According to the feedback in this thread using legends online is greatly wanted so 2K if you can put in requested features for offline game modes give online players the same treatment.

Ronnie2ks tweet about online legends:

"For those asking about the Online use of Legends, stay tuned on that. There's a method to the madness."

So there will be an explanation shortly.

The only explanation that will be excusable is if there was no way to code it or program it in. If its a fairness, or balance issue then we should expect them to patch it in if they can, or let us play online with them in 2k13. If that is a 2k community wish then the fairness/balance issue does not come into play

It's certainly possible to code it in.

Anything you can implement offline you can implement online.

There's more to it than that.

Don't think there is a viable excuse for not being able to use them:
•Balance issues=unranked only
•not having matching rosters= teams are already on disc, allow those who unlocked them to play with said teams and lock them out for those who haven't until they do so.
•Different eras=standardize games to be played under modern rules or allow this to be chosen when setting up. Keep modern presentation to streamline it.
•technical issues adding teams= really?

I may not be a dev but this shouldn't be impossible....hoping for better news on this.

Perhaps it has to do with the moneyball tournaments the game always opens up with? Perhaps they don't want players competing with those teams and didn't have time to lock them out?

Just spitballing, I don't really think that's plausible.
