No Crew Mode For NBA 2K13

[KyotoCarl]

A little bit off topic, but I am curious to know how much of it was Jordan and how much of it was the fall of NBA Live/Elite....I know they were both a factor but I don't know which one had the bigger influence....

I think the fact that 2k is the best basketball video game the last 5 years has to do something with it

Re: No Crew Mode For NBA 2K13

but something like floor general or defensive anchor will still give all players on his team that same boost no?

Yes, but a bench player isn't going to get one of those sig skills. I'm fairly confident that true Floor Generals and/or Defensive Anchors will be elite at that type of skill. This seems to be supported by the fact that MyCareer has those at a drastically higher price than the other sig skills AND with a minimum awareness rating.

The fact remains that there are players that do things on the basketball court that don't show up in box scores, but help to make their team better on the offense or defensive end. Whether that's a point guard's ability to run an offense or a defender's ability to scare people away from attacking the paint, the game is affected in ways that don't show up in mere pts/reb/assts/blks/stls/etc. Because of this, I think these are excellent signature skills to include in the game. Jason Kidd is the perfect example. He can put up zero stats, but the team plays better when he's on the floor.

It's true, if scrubs end up with these major skills, than the balance of the game will be thrown out of whack. But, I don't think they will. I doubt we'll be seeing Jimmer with the Floor General skill or Tyrus Thomas with Defensive Anchor.

We'll see once we play it, but to me, 2K seems to have thought things through fairly well and I'm excited to try it all out.

Not surprise MyCrew won't be in the game. Lets be honest when it comes to online game modes 2k sucks. Crew mode is a great concept that 2k couldn't implement correctly the two years it was in their game (2k10,2k11).
Even with all it's problems I enjoyed the game mode. You're sadly mistaken if you believe hacked uncapped 99 player were the biggest issue and the cause for MyCrew to not be in 2k13. The most frustrating and biggest issue was the servers. At times it would take up to a hour and a half to find a game, and if you did find a game in a timely manner most of player would drop before the jump ball.
One of the most interesting thing I read form the Eric Boenisch interview was, "2k11 was not the best year for us online, although it was one of our best selling products our servers were not at all reliable with us at the time". At the end of the day it is a business.

Enough. You've made your point.

We give guys a little room to mess around but you are overdoing it.

I won't be surprised if EA make their own crew mode and put it in NBA Live next year. Would be a smart move by EA cause it seems 2k can't get it right when it comes to this great mode.

One might argue that was the case for the entire decade.

Re: No Crew Mode For NBA 2K13

I love Crew as much as anybody but this 3 vs 3 thing is legit too. Ronnie2k said that people wont be able to hack it. play 3 on 3 with some of your boys, have fun in My Career mode. I think it'll be great. I'm a NBA first tho so theres no way i wouldn't get 2k13.

Re: No Crew Mode For NBA 2K13

what i don't understand is why some of you care if someone isn't buying game based off one mode. you guys claim this game gonna be so great how do you guys know you haven't played it. some of you fall for the 2k hype everytime.

personally i didn't play crew but i feel for those who really loved it. its a shame that a few bad apples messed it up for everyone. and to you who claiming oh its just a fantasy mode and blah blah isn't the game itself a fantasy in which you are trying to make real. just because you don't like mode doesn't make you better than anyone else so please get over yourselves please

Re: No Crew Mode For NBA 2K13

Ok i understand that but it isnt gonna make or break the game, and i could care less if i take my player online and play against other people that isnt simulation to me, or team up with my friends on line if anything i wanna compete against my friends on line. If i want that type of on-line experience ill play call of duty not a sports game.

Don't pay any attention to that dude. This "My Player" drop is bs. He has nothing to back up any of his statements.
