Butt tech needs to get to the 21st century, I'm with you all day.

Rich! Man what console you on these days. We haven't played 2K in years at this point. Thanks for the feedback.

Same with the hair.


If a player doesn't get scanned, I can understand if the in-game model doesn't look that accurate. But hopefully they can still alter players hair even if they didn't get scanned this year.


For example, Jabari obviously got scanned last year because his face looks spot on. But his hair is much longer now in real life (as opposed to in this video). So even if he didn't get scanned for 2k16, I hope that doesn't mean they can't/won't make his hair look more accurate as to how it is now.

I am surprised no one has noticed that you can see Derrick Rose's new signature shoe multiple times!

It is all about when they get scanned and players making it a priority to get scanned. 2K appeared to be coming to teams to get scanning done last season but if a player was hurt chances are they might not even be coming in to get scanned. If a player was scanned but changed up a bunch of their features, hair tattoos weight in the off-season chances are high they didn't get scanned

2K is not stalking these guys like a paparazzi.



It seems to go like this

1. They try to scan players at home arena during the season for next year
2. They get incoming rookies scans at Summer League
3. They try to get other players at their own studio say on west coast trips.

This is most likely why certain players scans could be out of date or not get scanned at all, injuries, or major changes during the off-season.

Yes the scanning definitely has to be initiated by both sides. Based off what I know about Madden scanning for example, they'll go to team practices etc. with the equipment, but the players still have to choose to come by. If they're injured etc. it can cause an extra issue.

But WI's point about hair to me still feels valid. Tattoos might be hard to do if you can't find good source material, but hair you could do without a new scan I would think -- I'm not sure how much a scan plays a role in hair or not as is.
