Era Based Filters/Rules
 

I think it would be awesome to have filters/rules from the 60's up to current day as a selectable option in a menu. Like current Miami Heat vs. Current OKC with no 3pt line and B&W filter. Current Heat vs. 96 Bulls with hand-checking allowed and 90's look filter. It would also be cool if these rules/filters were used online yet based off of who is the home team. So if Home 96 Bulls goes up against Away (Current)Miami Heat, there would be a 90's filter and 90's rules. If the Heat were home current rules. I know many agree this would take the game to another level presentation wise. :woot:

I don't even use Classic Teams and I'll cosign on this.

I would love to see this added in. Thats the 1 thing I really liked about NBA2k12 was playing the classic mode with the rules from that era. I also liked the black&white TV presentation. Only thing they didnt do is move the 3pt line back where it was back in the day. Other than Association mode the classic teams is the only other thing I play with NBA2k. I could care less about all the other modes, and I really could care less about that PTG Lebron mode this year they added:)

Couldn't agree more. I won't even be buying this years 2k for the first time since '07, even though the legends are back, it seems like 2k has done nothing with them. No word of extra teams or features involving them. At least last year they gave us the dream team and the '01 Sixers.

I'm sticking with 2k13 and Rayray's ultimate roster packed full of classic teams.

I would love to be able to play with the classic rules and era specific presentation filters.

I agree, this would be pretty awesome. I thought 2K was on the trail of something pretty realistic and legitimate in 2K12. I'm guessing it'd have taken quite a bit of work to get those filters crossed over to Quick Games and otherwise, but I think it would have been worth it. If we want to talk about authentication and reality, it was tough to beat playing a 60's Celtics/Lakers matchup in black & white without a three point line and using the rules of the era. To be blunt, I sort of feel like it's a huge waste to have spent the time to implement something so unique, authentic, and spectacular, only to limit it to a specific mode and trash it after a single year.

Awesome experiences:

Someone need to send this idea 2k sports ASAP!!!!!! think about the possibilities that we as consumers can do with this!

Re: Era Based Filters/Rules
 

I wonder if my expectations are too high for next gen because I'm expecting to see these all things and more.
