    If Crew is on next gen, the last logical thing you'd put in an ad is "Current Gen Only".

    If "Current Gen Only" actually means "Current Gen, but not really, because we haven't actually announced anything about Next Gen, but want to mislead and confuse by saying 'Current Gen Only'", their entire marketing team should be fired, rehired, and fired again.

    Or at least be forced to retake remedial English.
    I think it means that this reveal is only for current gen, being that they only want to show and market the current gen 2k14 right now, also crew for next gen it might be different than current gen and since again they are hush hush on next gen right now they say current gen only because that's all their speaking on.

      They should make it very clear then and soon because they know tons of people will pre order the game now.
      Tbh I just dislike everything how 2K market their game. They really go all the way with the wind wherever that takes em.

            "Crew Mode On Current Gen Only"

            I don't think I'm misunderstanding how words work.

            If they didn't want to announce anything regarding next gen, they'd just say NOTHING regarding next gen or either gen.

            Pretty sure there isn't a "different version of Crew" for next gen. It makes no sense to change/rename something for next gen when Crew is so sought after, asked for, and well known. More than likely, Crew doesn't exist on next gen.

            At this point, I'm not even sure that Team-Up or My Player exist on next gen, as Crew is basically just those two modes put together. Next-gen 2K will require a VERY good looking facial generation system for created players to mesh with the lifelike next-gen cyberfaces, and creating such a system in a short amount of time is not at all trivial-- so it's completely possible that there's no next-gen Crew because there's no next-gen My Player in the first place.

            And if this nightmare scenario is true, then it might also mean that there won't be a Create-A-Player function either, and players not on the disc will never make it in a roster the entire year.

            I hope this isn't true, but the next-gen face-gen system could be the missing piece of technology holding everything back.

              All the people bringing up current gen only need to look back at the first version of the game for Xbox 360. That version was watered down as well and only had cool graphics to look at with bare modes. It wasn't until 2K7 that the bar was really set for the next gen with perhaps the single greatest leap from game to game in the history of sports gaming..

                EDIT: Didn't notice you said "arena". Then that'll be 2K11 Crew w/ plays, commentary, fans, celebrations etc.

                    Is this really 2K14 playing in the back?

                    I like how the ball goes flying when the guy reaches at 1.16. Don't think that is in 2K13.

                      I agree 100% in that if they didn't want to give away info regarding next gen, they would have said nothing. Saying "current gen only" in clear text at the end of the trailer means just that, current gen only crew.

                      However, I don't believe they would be stupid enough to not include MyPlayer...MyPlayer is the most played mode. Nearly everyone plays it. Not including it would get them verbally wrecked on social media and their next gen sales would suffer A LOT.

                        You know what would crack me up? If VC looked at all of the cryer posts, and decided that people seem to be more UPSET with this than happy. Then just take it out. What's the point of working on something if folks don't actually want it? It's like a kid that cries for ice cream. Then you give them a sundae, but they are still crying because they wanted a banana split. Just, wow, people. It's also amazing how people are defining Crew by where the 5v5 is played - which they have NO idea. I always felt Crew was more about having your *CREW* of friends and beating down other crews. Doesn't matter where. At least not to me. The company made the mode. So I think they have an idea what should and should not be considered "Crew".

                        But that's just me. So, carry on. I'm sure all the stress over so little information is quite fun for some of you guys.

                          I hope this doesn't hint at the next gen versions being completely bare bones versions of the game like Madden 06 was.

                            Re: NBA 2K14 Features Crew Mode - 3 vs. 3 or 5 vs. 5 (Current-Gen Only?)

                            Why would 2k announce a mode, and then purposely leave out some features from us creating an uproar? I'm sorry but what they have announced is probably what it is going to be. Remember leading up to 2k12, we were all anticipating new features to crew mode but 2k never told us any. We made excuses for them saying it's too early. Same thing happened leading up to 2k13. We heard nothing from them.

                            Guys, the game comes out in a month and a half. The game probably goes gold in either the 1st or 2nd week of September. What features they tell us about crew mode today is what it is, they are not leaving anything out. Yes I am disappointed, as I wanted a crew mode similar to 2k11.

                            What we know now is what it's going to be. There is likely nothing else(or very minimal) new stuff about the mode.

                            CREW MODE on 2k14

                            - 3v3 HALFCOURT or 5v5 FULLCOURT w/ leaderboards
                            - 3v3 arena is the blacktop arena, 5v5 arena is likely the same
                            - Looks to be no jersey customization. Your myplayer will be wearing street clothes you BUY WITH YOUR VC. Likely crews will set themselves with matching gear anyways. (Money grab for 2k)
                            - You can create a crew name, as also customize their logo. As if you can create a true customizeable logo, or pick between renders and just change their colors is unknown.
                            - Will have leaderboards like in 2k13 blacktop. Likely showing top crews and also being able to see your crew's player's stats (ppg, fg%, 3pt%, etc). Likely accessible by pressing RB in the crew leaderboards to view your crew.

                            RUMORED (LIKELY)
                            - Must have either 3v3 or 5v5 real human players. No CPU filling.
                            - If 5v5 arena is the blacktop arena, it is likely the game will play to 21.

                              From 1.10 to 1.17 the animation of the ball handler accelerating and loosing the handle is really good.
