Or they can give us the power to edit the colors ourselves is another option.

To be fair the legends were a focal point later in the last gen consol versions. Jumping to next gen they revamped nearly the entire league. I'm sure at some point the legends will get the attention they need.

Essentially what I'm saying is all the current 4k buyers have "beta" sets that they've paid exorbant amounts of money for. . . Nothing
I wish everyone would just adopt displayport

Current HDMI cables support it easily, it's just manufacturers not putting true 2.0 inputs in their sets for who knows what reason. Probably because it hasn't been finalized.

Re: What's left for 2k to improve graphically?

oh yeah. would it be too much for clothing to have movement on the blacktop/park/rec?
and the warm ups. make those look less painted on, but don't make them look like velour jump suits like the competitions game.

Re: What's left for 2k to improve graphically?

Not really a graphics thing, but I would like to see 2K incorporate some of the MyCareer stuff into MyLeague/MyGM. I'd love to see shoe, Sprite and Gatorade commercials every once in a while. Some generic and some featuring star players. And aerial shots that show billboards featuring a star player inbetween quarters. Or to see/control a press conference after a big game. It could be used to create rivalries and such.

I don't think there's any specific area in which I feel they need to improve graphically outside of created players generated by the game. Outside of that, I think they are pretty solid in the graphics front and I couldn't ask for more in that area.

1. For me the most glaring need of an upgrade in visuals are the courts and crowds. There isn't a lot of detail in the hardwood floors compared to the other game. I want to see scuff marks, shadows and light bounce off from the court if that makes sense. I feel this would really give the game some life to the atmosphere.

Other areas of note
2. Lighting
3. Skin textures

I will give examples later but how do the rest of you guys feel about this area of the game?


For me, I feel like graphically NBA Live 15 looked far more realistic than NBA 2k15. But with that being said, 2k15 looks beautiful. I just believe the colors are too bright and vibrant, compared to NBA Live 15's more realistic colors and looks. And NBA Live has greater detail to courts and how much better they look. NBA Live has far more game play flaws than 2k does, 2K is the all around better game to play because of the smooth play and better customization of players, roster, in game action us smoother, etc. But from what I've heard NBA Live is correcting those issues with Live 16 and I am purchasing that one first just because it is graphically superior to 2K. If 2K can tone down the color vibrancy and make the colors looks more realistic then I believe they'll have the absolute perfect game. From the smoother game play to implenting college teams in its my player, I think those improvements would push the game over the edge. And presentation wise, NBA Live blows 2k out of the water with its ESPN presentation. I absolutely love the halftime stuff it has, showing highlights, top plays, stats, who's hot and cold, 2K has nothing like that and I feel like they should. Get the TNT group or something under contract and do something like what Live does and it would be amazing. It's going to be very interesting to see what these two games look like when they come out. If Live makes the improvements it says they're making and they're actually successful, they could be back to giving 2k a run for their money like they used to. I'm so excited for both games though!
