As it reads .. you should be able to pplay online with the Legendary teams. Look at the bulleted format.

* The greatest stars compete in blacktop event is the first bullet,
*with its own sub bullets.
* Next bullet is "Play online with Legendary teams"
* Blacktop would have likely said legendary "players" - team is the entire unit (coach, bench etc)
* Import your myplayer in this mode .. if you like
* And lastly .. ok - that last bullet isn't particularly clear.
* Are all these features set in Iconic Times Square?
* Doesn't necessarily makes sense but that's how it reads. So for now, I'll say yes.
--- Till one of them reads this forum and realize that header needs more clarity. Unless of course, it
was still a work in progress when some eager beaver posted it.
Somebody check w Ronnie or Beluba and we wait for some clarity.
That makes it way too easy right? Keep at it ... enjoy the argue boys. It's half the fun anywayz.

I don't care what anyone says, these type of threads are still some of my favorite on OS for one simple reason: They make people go crazy!

As Katt Williams would say, "Make that paper Boo Boo"

I totally agree. Day one pay to play and putting legends in streetball mode is not what we asked for. But it does say play ONLINE with legendary TEAMS from NBA's greatest. keeping my fingers crossed because if I can play online with RUN TMC y'all in trouble. For u youngsters that's 90-91 GS warriors Tim Hardaway, Mitch Richmond, and Chris Mullin.

And paying for a DLC .. I'll give it to them. It's a good idea. Do it like they did the Combine. It probably has its best value at $10 .. but make it $5 so the market doesn't panic. Take some of that money and pay the old school players and the league for licensing their likenesses. If my homeboy sat in his house for a year and designed this game for me - I'd probably give him $200 or more easily for it. They want $70. For all the stuff they've done ... (65 + 5). Especially since I'll probably be playing it actively until August 2012 anaywayz ... heeh. Keep it man - call it a tip for a job well done. Demo looks good enough - plus you have good credit with me from your past work. I work hard .. you work hard .... ehh - I'll drop an extra five for the cause. I really hope they do it that way. Make it optional ... fair enough.

I wonder why they changed the menu and added the showcase.

# 87 Josephlaker123 @ 09/26/11 08:53 PM

What makes me disappointed is that we might be paying for content that's already on the disc, should that be the case. If it's something that didn't fit on the disc, or that 2K created after finishing up the game, then that's fine. I just don't like having to pay extra for something that's already there.

In any case, we don't even know whether or not we'll have to purchase the DLC, or how much it's going to cost, so I'll just be patient.

couldnt have said it better....totally agree

# 92 DoWork @ 09/26/11 09:48 PM

Thank you for posting! Looks like I'll be buying the game now lol. I agree with everyone that hopefully we will get to play with the legend teams in real arenas. Don't want to play with them in street ball either lol, that would be pretty lame.

# 93 pcoz2000 @ 09/26/11 10:15 PM

You can play with the greatest teams offline in the arenas, and possibly not online?! That would be incrediblely stupid. 2k don't mess this up! The arenas, the colors, the court is all part of the nostalgia. If it is dlc that comes with a price, so be it. Just do this right. The dream playing at the fourm against lake show?! Online?! Are you kidding me?! Who isn't drooling for these matchups online in those arenas!
Cmon Man! Get it right!

# 94 Darkimpact17 @ 09/26/11 10:16 PM

We have to pay extra for Legends online, what a joke how are you going to charge for your biggest feature for this years game. If I want to play a buddy online with these team I shouldn't have to pay 1200-1600 MS points to do so, pathetic.

# 95 datruth251 @ 09/26/11 10:28 PM

If u have to pay to play with legend teams online I'm not against it I will pay. Do u think it was easy for them to get these greats on the game in the first place. I don't mind paying a lil extra for the time and effort they put into that. GOOD JOB 2K you guys truly are for the people that play this game.

# 96 scottyp180 @ 09/26/11 10:30 PM

should be for free.99. there should be no reason to pay for something that should already be in the game. 2k needs to announce this officially because the details for this feature are very confusing. is it just blacktop mode with legends online? or is it that plus being able to use the legend teams online? either way doesn't seem right to charge money for..hopefully this will be clarified within a couple days.

# 97 scatman @ 09/26/11 11:19 PM

Wow lmao....whatever the majority wants I hope they get. I love the game, don't play (this game) online much but I do play others (COD).... I most likely won't use this feature, but like I said I hope the majority gets what they want.

As far as DLC goes, if I have to pay, so be it as long as it's reasonable (the price and the content). I can't wait to have this game. Maybe 2K can surprise with a Barkley, Miller and Iverson DLC.....nah.......but it'd be nice lol.

# 98 NotoriousD @ 09/27/11 12:06 AM

Very shocked about the DLC but hey I'll buy it still if it cost money.

# 99 drewski41423 @ 09/27/11 12:28 AM

PPL NEED TO RELAX BIG TIME PPL PAY FOR DLC ON CALL OF DUTY ALL THE TIME EVEN THOUGH THEIR MAP PACKS AREN'T ALREADY ON DISC OR A MAIN FEATURE OF THEIR GAME BUT PPL BUY IT CAUSE THEY LOYAL AND THEY WANT A NEW EXPERIENCE AND THEY APPRECIATE THEIR WORK LIKE MANY PPL SAID IT'S NOT EASY TO GET ALL THOSE LEGENDS AND EXCLUSIVE THINGS LIKE NIKE ID AND FOOTLOCKER WITHOUT TAKING A LOT OF TIME AND MONEY NO ONE IS MAKING ANYONE OF U BUY IT IF IT IS PAY TO PLAY SO WHAT IF UR A TRUE FAN AND SUPPORT 2K AND THE ONLY BASKETBALL U WILL C FOR A WHILE THEN SUPPORT THEM IF IT IS PAY TO PLAY CAUSE 2K GETS BETTER EVER YEAR AND THEY TAKE TIME TO LISTEN US AND OUR INPUT WHEN THEY DONT HAVE TO APPRECIATE GREATNESS THAT IS GOING TO BE 2K12 I'M JUST SAYING......
