NBA 2K15: Yakkem Trailer (Gameplay Included)

[Goffs]

Do you guys think that 2K's attention to detail will capture Anthony Davis's lower chompers?

In fact it added to the realism because there wasn't a digital representation reminding you the announcers were fake people. Silly Creepy Shaq antics is going to knock down the presentation and immersion for me .

You actually could see them in NBA 2k9



I agree though...between them, Sager back on the day, Doris last year....the non player/ coach models have always looked a little weird....

Doesn't necessarily kill any immersion for me because Shaq being ridiculous is about as real as it gets, but I can see the beef with the models,..

Obviously you won't see it in the trailers, but it's been there for years and it makes guys like Iggy way better than they should be

I'd rather them work it out than just throw something in that isn't ready.

And I prefer 2-man animations you can't get out of to 2-man non animations that you can't get out of like they had in 2K12 or 13, where it just slid you out of the way with no contact animations whatsoever, because supposedly 2-man animations were of the devil. It was a worse product that looked terrible and played no better.

All this hate for 2-man animations is way overblown. It's sort of wishing for pie-in-the sky with an extremely difficult and challenging problem that hasn't been adequately solved realtime in all of computer science yet. We'll get more dynamic animations when it's ready-- and even then, people will still complain about the lack of interactivity, because hey, you do lose control when you jump into the air and collide with another. And for what it's worth, we're already seening 2K put some collision physics where limbs meet because they no longer clip into each other-- but it's not something anyone mentions.

As long as the results are tuned correctly so that contact dunks aren't dominating and results play out realistically (more missed dunks and fouls than not), I'm fine with 2-man anims.

JESUSCRIST DUDE!! That's disgusting! I hope they don't, but you can see something close in Alien Isolation.

Doris was a necessary evil last year because of the courtside interviews (which I hope are back). And I think she looked bad because she wasn't scanned properly (and had hair).


I thought the coaches looked great for the most part though, some even better than players.

Iggy looks amazing. He might be one of the best 2K representations I've seen yet.

I meant to say in my comment that coaches looked good as well...my bad.

All you had to do was put the contact shot at the rim, or whatever it's called, slider way up, turn shooting fouls up, dunk attempts down, dunk rating down.. Problem solved.

Lots of the issues people have with 2k gameplan can be fairly easily fixed with tweaking the sliders..

I wish that was the case online
