I dont mind DLC. What bothers me is 2k making me pay extra for something that could have been on the game disc at launch. If you add something in february, fine. But dont make me pay more for no reason.

No thanks. Baffles the mind if what I'm assuming is true.

You can use classic teams online in a regular game matchup, according to the screenshot on the first page.

Is this basically going to work like this:

If you buy the DLC, you get matched up with other people that have bought it.

Or is it a completely separate game mode so you can ONLY choose the classic teams?

It just says "play online", which doesn't necessarily mean proper 5 on 5. It could be just limited to the Showcase game modes, which would be insane if true. No one wants that, they want 5 on 5 classic basketball.

DLC are conceptualized and developed after the game is produced ? ... as much as we would like, things dont work that noble way, they never have btw ... all DLC are worked on within the budget and development calendar of games ... the main purpose of them is to expand the original game value of those whom find it worthy, then again, at a cost.

So, is as simple as a matter of choice: do you find it worthy of (whatever amount, put price here) paying for that extra added value ?

Agreed, we all would prefer not to pay ... but if they ask for a pay in order to have a DLC, they would just be going by the modern standars and would be ultimatelly giving us more of what they have been giving us: "user control" ... as we and only we, are the ones who decide (control) to buy it or not.

Again, doing so will help 2k get in a better financial position (which is a wise business route to take) and that, given their proven record of listening to the community and going all in on the 1 year cycles, can only translate into our benefit.

I sincerely hope classic teams are available as options in regular teamplay without DLC.

# 127 green225 @ 09/29/11 11:06 AM

did they say what else is in the dlc package? as in crew, and my player pick up games. if that's in, i'll pay the extra $10 bucks, if not, forget about it. if that's in there this is cool, i'll be using nick anderson, and plan on turning his legacy around.

# 131 ultralow36 @ 10/06/11 03:07 AM

any news on this mode?

# 132 poloelite @ 10/06/11 05:48 PM

I can't find any news on this mode anywhere. Everything I find about it is pre-launch.

# 133 bigball12 @ 10/07/11 06:00 PM

If this DLC restricts the legends for use at Times Square only, I'm not buying this!

# 134 mrclutch @ 10/07/11 06:04 PM

Has anyone heard when this or any other DLC will be out?

# 135 mrclutch @ 10/08/11 11:59 PM

Any word on the ETA on the DLC?

# 136 RajonChrondo @ 10/13/11 05:01 PM
