If I get this will it be accessible in my current Association I'm already playing?

Yes, I believe so.

This forum has really changed for the worse over the past couple of months.

Guys said 2k was being jerks for not selling the ASW content and asked for them to sell it.

They put it up at a reasonable price and guys still complain?

I'm not down for the cause anymore it seems - I don't know what I should be fighting for/mad at anymore lol

i think people complain because 2k lied and said it was only for people who preorder false advertisement.

That doesn't make any difference though.

NBA Live 09 Dunk Contest was 100% better than 13.
You guys should have just kept the blacktop dunk contest and put it on a NBA hardwood floor instead putting in that crap.

Dont be an idiot. EVERY game company does this. They'll offer up something as an incentive for you to preorder, then 30-60 days later they'll offer that item up as paid DLC. Those people who preordered the game, got this DLC for free, those who waited have to pay 5 bux. Theres no false advertisement in it.

I have to be real, I can acknowledge what 2K was very likely going for (a maximization of pre-orders) but I can't help but feel it was at least a little disingenuous, even if that type of action has somehow become the corporate norm. It would have been nice to know there would have been an option to begin with, as opposed to having a picture painted suggesting the only way to acquire the DLC would have been through pre-order. A line from 2K before release:

The All-Star add-on content is ONLY available if you pre-order the game (which you can do here: http://2kgam.es/NBA2KStore)

http://osatwork.com/forums/showthread.php?t=555134

Again, it's not a life or death situation and I know that quote left itself open to a little interpretation (i.e. "We only said that it IS only available via pre-order, not that it will ALWAYS only be available via pre-order") but it's still deceptive at best, manipulative at worst. And speaking only on my own regard, little things like that can add up sometimes.

That said, I'm glad 2K has provided access to the ASW for all those who desire it, but why wouldn't they have not just gone with the "pre-order and get it free or else pay for it later" angle instead of attempting to convince folks they only had one chance to acquire said mode? 2K's done a lot over the years to show they actually care about their consumers and what they think. This particular situation just happens to be one of the few that's ended up on the wrong side for me.

In the gaming industry only never means only... I just look at it this way, we that pre-ordered got it for free.

Re: NBA 2K13 All-Star Weekend DLC Available For Purchase Tomorrow - $4.99

At least it's only $5. I would have guessed they would have charged $10.

[KyotoCarl]

Stop complaining, seriously. If you pre ordered you got it for free. If you didn't then you can get it for $5. What's the problem? Why even discuss it?

Weakest DLC ever. Allstar weekend should have been part of the game from the off. Played the dunk contest and shootout once, don't feel the need to revisit either.

With all the money 2k has made this yr, it will be a slap n the face if CREW isnt back for 2k14, probably the best online mode ever, make time this yr 2k! & do it right

If I'm already in an online association, can I play against other players in my association?

... but it wasn't so what's the big deal? Either you got it when you pre ordered, for free, or you pay $5, which is dirt cheap for a DLC.

Seriously, what is the problem?
