Re: NBA 2K14 Crew Mode:Bring This Mode Back!

they will bring it back, their campaign for 2k13 was dream team and new features and i am guessing 2k14 will be around crew mode, nothing else to add but hopefully they fix the myteam mode its terrible they should make it more realistic like fifa ultimate team

I'm sure the Jordan Deal was for 3 games. He did his part. Sell as many games with your name,power &i nfluence of basketball.Mission achieved.Now back to square one, bring back what made you hot in the 1st place...Like you said, they've pretty much exhausted what they could out of every single game mode available. That's why there's a poll going around on their front page asking if the OS community wants innovation, or refinement for NBA 2K14.
I for one chose Refinement..Fix the crew mode, and also get rid of this slip and slide defense, and the terrible delayed reaction/slips, falls.

Re: NBA 2K14 Crew Mode:Bring This Mode Back!

Ok guys CREW lover here. 1. Idea I really want the most is create your own LOGO. & what I mean is on the front of the teams jersey we should get a Box where the logo would go & we would be able to put different shapes,numvers,letters,randon stuff, etc together yo make a logo. Any Call of Duty players would see this as create a emblem online in blackops 1 & 2. I want this feature because if will bring creativity to CREW matches & My Players. Example you make a CREW logo, say the Avengers logo & the CREW name is the Avengers, gamers would give their My Players goofy names to go along with the CREW. Example last name Hulk, Iron Man,Thor,etc so the players names go along with the team namw.
Another example rap groups. Team might want to make Mayback Music & use MMG sign for Crew logo then u would see a fat my player with the James Harden beard named Rick Ross.

Part 2 The actual player customization. 2k has the worst player customization in all sports games. Come on 2k same tattoos & hairstyles since like 2k7... Sheesh. We could use a huge turnover of hairstyles. One thing that bothers me is the fact that we cant choose hairstyles the real nba players have on the game. Example,Noahs ponytail,Farieds dreads,Jennings Mo hawk, Iverson braids, Knight 360 waves. We should be able to use these on our players. The Tattoos are just as bad. How many of u would evwr get a 2k tat in real life? Nobody. Why not make nba players tattoos available as tattoo packages. Meaning u get the full set of tatts for your player from nba players such as iverson,Lebron,Kobe,Ellis,Durant(hidden),Marquis Danials,Jennings,JR Smith,Stevenson,etc having nba player tatts would give our players that real life feel to playing in the nba. We wouldnt get a bunch of chinese letters & ceazy tribal symbols & dragons every where , we want to actually like our tatts.

Extras James Harden beard! Rip Hamilton face mask in different colors, examplw Kobe & Kyrie Irving wore a black 1.

Taunts: just like in fighting games the ability to taunt your opponent after a made basket or block. This feature should be triggered by pushing in the right stick aka R3. Then u would act out your taunt. Examples would be after a block u give your opponent the mutombo finger. Hit a big three do the Steve Novac championship belt aka the discount douvle check, lol
More taunts
Vince Carter motorcycle dance after dunks
Jason Terrys JET arms
KGs Pounding Chest
Nate Robinsons mini jet poping collar
Westbrook walk after Thunderous dunks
Various screems looking like your about to turn super sayon (DBZ)
Its Over.. vince carter in dunk contest
& many more should be able to buy with the vc u earn similar to 2k13s pre game ritual.

Overall if 2k brings back CREW & improve the customization it will be a epic game.

& my friend LD2k if u want to talk about anything crew related with me just send the party inv on xbox. Remember taunts from No Mercy (old wwe game) the best ever!

why not? thats the best one!!!

Re: NBA 2K14 Crew Mode:Bring This Mode Back!

Its the cheeziest 1 by far! I use it in my player for points, but online in crew it will be abused. Everyone will have it & just drive into paint & dunk on entire team. Plus u cant even block dunks in 2k13, hopefully that is fixed

Re: NBA 2K14 Crew Mode:Bring This Mode Back!

If they still have posterize next year they need something defensive to nullify it....a dunk blocking skill would be nice....

[MagicFan4Life]

Some of these suggestions are just laughable in here. But, some do make a lot of sense. I would like My Crew back in 2K14, but the only thing they really need to change from 2K13 is the "Buying VC" part. That's it. If they added My Crew in 2K13 and just didn't allow you to buy VC, that would be perfect. VC is easy enough to earn anyway. Play OA, play regular association, play MyCAREER, play quick games with friends, etc.

Also, to the person that said they should lower the height caps, that's unrealistic. There were some tall PG's, there are tall SG's, SF should be around 6'10, there are tall PF's, and there are tall Center's. I used to play with a 6'5" Athletic PG in 2K11 and I continued the trend of playing with him in 2K12 and 2K13. I am actually 6'6" in real life and I play PG when I go play on the courts because of my basketball IQ.

EDIT: Forgot to talk about the issue of hacking MyPLAYERS, but they seemed to have fixed that for online play this year.

Re: NBA 2K14 Crew Mode:Bring This Mode Back!

If there were caps what would u guys base them off of? Current IRL players?
PG 6"6 Vazquez of Hornets
SG 6"9 Paul George(really 6"10 but is a sf now)
SF +"10 Durant
PF 7"0 Dirk
C 7"3 Thabeet OKC

Are these fair or not?

Re: NBA 2K14 Crew Mode:Bring This Mode Back!

Just a guess, but I think VC is here to stay. I for one don't mind it because -- it's all about OPTIONS. If you are a hardcore gamer and want to spend hours playing the game to build up your my player with VC - you have that option. If you love Crew but don't want to spend hour after hour to build up your player, they give you that option as well by purchasing VC. Yall need to understand that no1 is forcing you to purchase ANYTHING. You purchase something only if you want the shortcut and don't want to build up your MP the old fashioned way. The VC "outrage" was overblown. If you're a nba2k-head, you're going to be playing this game all year and you have plenty of time and opportunity to accumulate enough VC to max out your player. My thinking is if the VC thing helped pay for better servers and prevented those 40 ft My player hacks, then it's an acceptable trade-off. Nothing more frustrating than 2K11 and my dude's like 6'8 and I gotta play 8 Ft dudes with 99 speed. 2K13 MP has been funner than 2K11 because 1) we can take players online (not in 2k12) 2) no my player hacks. So best of both worlds.

Crews cool but 3on3 blacktop has been fun too and adequate hold-over while they (hopefully) work on bringing back Crew.



Idea for my player / crew tho is I'd like to see the caps be lowered even more. With the maxed attributes + shoes + sig skills, it can get pretty cheesy. My player ratings should be on a curve, with the max being like Michael Jordan / Lebron / Wilt Chamberlain attributes. This way there's still some realism instead of every my player playing like a superhero.

Re: NBA 2K14 Crew Mode:Bring This Mode Back!

I stated earlier about the potential That VC could have. Since now that 2k has its own currency, why not adopt this idea from call of duty and have a wager system?


Wager Match is a game category in Call of Duty: Black Ops. In a Wager Matches, six players wager their CoD Points against other players within the lobby. Players within the top three ranks receive their winnings. There must be six players in a Wager Match for the game to start. If there aren't six players on the Wager Match server, the game will remain in intermission.
The top three players at the end of the match are "In The Money", meaning that they earn CoD Points (50 percent of the wagers go to the first place player, 30 percent for the second, and the last 20 percent goes to the third top player), while the remaining players earn no CoD Points. In the event of a tie between places, the players will assume the average between the two places that were tied (i.e. if there is a tie for second the two players will receive the average of 30% and 20% of the pot, which would be 1500 in a 1000-point wager game). If there is a tie for third, then the 20% of points allotted to third place will be split upon the tying players, which usually means them losing some (but not all) money that was wagered that match.
Lobbies are randomly generated, and the player can't have a party in the Weekend Gambler and High Roller playlists. Players will be able to use some killstreaks,<sup id="cite_ref-0" class="reference">[1]</sup> such as in Sticks and Stones where a Spy Plane is always online, or One in the Chamber where radar is active when there are only two players left. Players cannot earn XP in wager matches.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference">[2]</sup> Bigger maps also have sections blocked off, and some have specific routes closed off (e.g.: on Launch the area under the rocket is inaccessible).
If the host of a Wager Match dashboards, or turns off their console, rather than just leaving the game, the game is unable to migrate the host. The wager match will end and all CoD Points will be refunded to everyone except the person who dashboarded or turned off their console
Kills and deaths in Wager matches do not count towards the player's Combat Record in Player matches


Wager Matches are separated into three different playlists. Each playlist has a different buy-in cost, and may restrict players from forming parties.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference">[3]</sup>
Ante UpEdit

One of Three playlists in the Wager Match category. It includes all four of the wager game modes. Ante Up has a low buy-in cost of 10 CoD points, and players are allowed to form parties. 30 are awarded for 1st place, 18 for 2nd and 12 for 3rd. When the game is doubled down, the stakes raise to twice the respective amount. 1st place would win 60, 2nd place would win 36, and 3rd place would win 24.
Weekend GamblerEdit

Another playlist under Wager Matches. It includes all four of the wager game modes. Weekend Gambler has a medium buy-in cost of 1000, and players are not allowed to form parties. 3,000 are awarded for 1st place,1,800 for 2nd and 1,200 for 3rd.
High RollerEdit

The last, most risky playlist under Wager Matches. Pro Gambler mode is enabled, which incorporates the four wager game modes. High Roller has a very high buy-in cost of 10,000, and players are not allowed to form parties. 30,000 are awarded for 1st place, 18,000 for 2nd, and 12,000 for 3rd.




With the rules set up the way they are, I'm pretty sure we could have wager matches in Crew Mode and myplayer pick up games and pretty much across all other modes. The reason is simple...It gives us an incentive to play the game and makes it more fun...Theres something on the line with each game. With your winnings, you can use the earned VC for upgrades to your my player, buy accessories, different amenities for your MYTeam, shoes, Jerseys, jewelry..etc. Mark My words, this is the direction that 2ksports should and WILL go. You can thank me later, just offer me a job over in Novato, and i'll kindly accept and forget the debacle that was 2k12 & 2k13...mwahahahaha.

Re: NBA 2K14 Crew Mode:Bring This Mode Back!

Great post, OP! You have great ideas, about the same things I have been thinking about. I am praying crew makes a return in 2K14. I agree with that it would have been bad in 2K13. It's too many things that needs to be fixed, I am sure everyone would be doing the eurostep 3's all game and other bs. 2K11 was damn near perfect gameplay wise. Just the stupid hopstep & spin dunks was all my crew had to worry about.

I miss running with my crew.

I'm surprised there's no video of you guys facing our Crew. We played each other a bunch of times.
