Because they don't want to pay for usage of the trademarks.

Courts and jerseys have direct impact on your game experience. Accessories does not.

Patting 2K on the back isn't going to help the game / series become better. Constructive criticism will. They're not looking for BFFs, they're looking for customers.

nitpicking

looks good to me

dRoseBulls you make a incredible and valid point. Even the TD Garden isn't on the court. Paurket on the court is still wrong texture and colors.

I've been adding the new 2k12 images to my site and even looking at shoes, their palettes are way off. Look at Noah's shoes in his post up shot, they are pink instead of red and so forth. I don't understand who does the colors, but they've been off since 2k8 and have never been corrected in later version of this series.

Thank goodness I get the PC version each year, we can fix ourselves in hex.

Even the Signature is missing off the default court.

It makes the Game look So good that we have to pick on things like this instead of gameplay.

Plus they can't put TD Garden , You guys should know that.

First off it's not nitpicking it's wanting visual authenticity, which is a preference.

Secondly this thread is a comparison thread on visuals, not gameplay.

Gameplay from 2k has been great, why would we continue that topic, when he is obviously making a point on how he was able to do it, and they haven't done it, it's been an issue since the beginning.

Thats an opinion first of all, Accessories are a part of Basketball culture, and It would help 2k authenticy, players don't want to be reminded that we are playing a video game, and by 2k not upgrading that area of the game defeats that purpose. So your theory of courts and jerseys have a direct impact on the game experience is contradicting, because they don't effect the gameplay. And they are the same thing as accessories, cosmetic. There is a reason why their are a ton of accessory mods. But like I said I could careless if the gameplay is crappy.

That'd be why I wrote game experience, not gameplay. While everything being discussed is cosmetic, jerseys and courts pretty much measure out to 90% of what is happening on your screen. Sneakers, however, are going to be a 50 x 50 pixel segment in the bottom of your visual field.

I'm not saying they should completely ignore it, but the impact on the game is vastly different. Even the biggest Project Runway fans have to admit that much
