I get having the 2k Sports logo as it's supposed to be the network they're on, but the TV screens having the exact same logos as behind them but bigger is an eyesore.
As for the playoff set, I think it's fine. The barricade behind them threw me off at first but then I realized it keeps the fan out of the image making it a lot easier to accomplish. I agree that the DOF is a bit too intense, but thinking about it more it may be a design decision to hide the upper decks of stadiums and for the lighting from jumbotrons and the led boards to stand out more.
I get your points but I'm just happy it's in the game. They have laid the groundwork and hopefully can build on it in future iterations of the game. Maybe even a thread giving them ways to improve it. I can live with this as is but again I'm with you on a lot of your ideas.

It would be cool to have team logos on the front of desk of the matchup with 2k logo in the center. A realistic set, etc. I also get if your going to do something do it right the 1st time and make a realistic looking set. But maybe they only had enough resources or ran out of time to get to the point they got to? I do have faith now that it's in it will only get better from here.

In years past and many threads it's been discussed what would we rather have? Limited modes that were all done to perfection or add as much as you can in multiple areas just so it's in and build on it later. I think from all 2k has done this year they said let's build the groundwork and touch as much as we can get too. I love that and can live with that.

Oh for sure. I'm more than satisfied and normally I wouldn't say anything about it as this is crazy since I've been wanting something like this since NFL 2k5. I just don't like some design elements they use artistically (I'm like that about lots of things though because I'm a detail nut). As for the 2k16 set, they could've got away with the 2k15 set tbh and I would've been more than happy just because they have Kenny now. Last year I was just hoping the pre game show evolved in a halftime show since the foundation was there and it looks like we received way more. I just hope they keep it simple from here on out as sometimes simpler is better (just ask them about those 2k13 Jay-Z menus ).

Why does everyone want Chuck in the game?

1. He's shown a distinct lack of basketball I.Q, he's a terrible analyst who is stuck in his ways and is pretty much a relic at this point.

2. Hes an overweight degenerate gambler with homophobic tendencies.

3. He's an *******.



Keep him out the game. I wish TNT would keep him out of broadcasts as well.

Nate Robinson did a guest broadcast a while back for TNT. I really hope they fire chuck and hire Nate. He was much better as an analyst.

The problem is, the only thing based on personal opinion there was the stuff about Nate. Everything I said about Chuck is a fact.

He has shown a lack of basketball knowledge. He has shown himself to be a relic who refuses to embrace the modern game. He is fat. He is a denegrste gambler. And he is a homophobe. All of these things are well documented.

And he is an *******. But I guess I have no evidence to back that up other than him being a homophobic, degenerate gambler who makes claims, is proven wrong and then refuses to apologise.

What was said about the half time report? I can't find Dustin's post.
