The lighting looked ok to me.

A problem with these pics is the real life one is facing towards the court from the stands and the 2K ones are facing away from the court. Of course the one taken in darkness will appear darker.

i honestly cant tell you, i dont pay that much attention to all that stuff tbh.

That Blazers swish.....I've heard that plenty of times and it sounds perfect.

Semantics but regardless...

I hope they fix the colors and skin tones on your team to your liking this year...

Damn this is the most reasonable post I've ever seen on OS

Every arena isnt off. Just a few. A few of the more important ones though. If they got the lighting in Utah wrong, no one here would be saying a damn thing.

Some people like to play a game where realism is at a really high end. 2K is somewhat there, but I honestly feel they slip away in that department when they easily could have the game even more realistic than it currently is.

I used to spend hours in 2K11 editing rosters and importing custom sounds to make the game feel far more authentic.

Sometimes it's hard to justify buying a game year after year, particularly when something you like isn't to the level you want. The game is obviously great in a gameplay sense, but I don't think it justifies a purchase every year like some on here think. A lot of the time problems from previous 2K's seem to reappear and you feel as though you're playing an older 2K.

Not really, I just choose to spend money on products that meet my expectations. You don't, and that's perfectly fine. I'm guessing you've bought all past iteration of games from franchises that you enjoy despite having complaints.

The Warriors color were one of the concerns people had in past. I never had an issue with it despite me being a life long Warriors fan. I still bought past 2k games with incorrect Warriors colored. I never complained. People brought it up, I noticed. Still didn't matter to me because that part didn't concern me.

The same goes with MLB the Show. If the concerns aren't addressed for future iterations, I'm skipping. More importantly, I actually found a baseball product that's superior.
