NBA 2K13 Features 3 on 3 Blacktop Mode Online, Use MyPlayer to Team Up with Friends

[BigDaneAyMane]

Glad many of you are fine with this, but it just does not do it for me.

What keeps me playing My-Player, is the ability to constantly get my player better and take him online against other my players in a real game setting where you use strategy similar to a real NBA game. In 2K12, MP was better than it was in 2k10/11, but I actually played it the least because it felt like their just was no point.

I love to create a dominant true center and matchup against other bigs, human or cpu, and do the dirty work that people don't care to do. My favorite things to do actually is to pass out of the post. Nothing better when I get a game online and someone I play with "gets it", actually feeds me the ball in the post and makes a perfect cut for me to dish it to them in stride for a lay-in or dunk.

Getting away from the point, but it seems clear to me that someone from corporate saw how much money Ultimate Team makes and 2K was told they had to create a similar mode which left no time to find a better way to bring our my players online.

Disappointing to say the least, but I will still be picking this game up ASAP, as it is my favorite series in sports gaming.

Accidentally deleted a paragraph in my last post before posting:

I wasn't expecting crew in it's previous form, but I was expecting a huge upgrade in how they incorporate bringing our my players online. We are in the FOURTH year of MyPlayer. We should be beyond just having a 3v3 mini-game that does not simulate real professional basketball. 3v3 would be great if it was in there along with 21 and a slew other mini-games in addition to 5v5. By itself, it is a huge letdown.

I wouldve like to have crew but i could settle for this, atleast Myplayer as some type of purpose now, unlike last year when you had none at all. One of the main reasons why Myplayer why so popular when it 1st came out was, so you can build him up and than show him off to your friends.

Yea since people who play association or ranked matches never complain. Give me a break. The people who hate crew are the ones that sucked at it.

Your logic is sound! People who suck at something must hate it... BRILLIANT!

No man. You're mind can't wrap around the genius that was that statement. It's much deeper. Not only do people that suck at something hate it, but people that hate something, suck at it. Can you wrap your feeble mind around THAT one? It took me a while, but I'm starting to get it. But my head hurts now. Too much thinking...

I would have rather had 2k use the time spent on this half court3v3 shi & put that time into maling CREW. 2k claimed they fidnt have enough time. I honestly think they didnt even try. Added new modes like My Team for $. I brt 2k makes VC purchasable online so players cam get all the good cards/players without actually earning them.

It's crazy that some of you don't even think that MAYBE, just MAYBE they tried to do it 5 on 5, then found they could only make 3 vs. 3 stable. Remember the DLC offering?

Maybe they just couldn't get a solid 5 on 5 connection to work?

Don't you guys remember - 2k online sucks, yadda yadda yadda.... and now they decide to possibly DO SOMETHING about it... and tehy are still teh suck?

You guys are funny.

i cant tell what type of players my friends to make... but my team is pg,sf,sf how exactly will that matchup to another teams sf,c,c not every team is going to have a legit pg and neither will every team have a center... so how is 2k going to match these scenarios

I understand that 10 users might have been an issue. My point is that they could have added 2 CPU players to each team. Most Crew games only had between 4 and 6 users anyways. Making it 3-on-3 completely makes it a casual street mode. No one asked for casual settings.

You do know that you don't always have to play devil's advocate or come to 2K's defense right?

You have no clue how much I understand, and now you're skirting the question. Are the games different? Yes. Does the problem affect the game of 3 on 3 versus 5 on 5 differently? Yes. Is it still an issue for either? YES! Just because you prefer how it affects one game over another, doesn't mean it's not an issue and doesn't mean it's not basketball. You're not saying anything different. You said 3 on 3 doesn't work because of it. Well if me and two of my boys got to an open gym, we have no idea who we have to play. We just have to deal with it. That's as real if it were 5 on 5. Get it now? You are confused at what I disagreed with. Yes the games are different, but you said you are not playing "real defense" in 3 on 3. And I say not true at all. It's real, just a different brand. I didn't disagree they were different.

You just don't get it and it's obvious you never will. You are not changing how I feel and I am obviously not changing yours. Done discussing it.
