NBA 2K11 Screenshot: Andre Iguodala

Doesn't look like they've put THAT much into the graphics, YET. Most of the screens look like 2k10 at the moment, because its still early.

It's far from the final build. But I'm wondering what it really means graphically.

I seriously doubt they can do much with these models. Builds don't change that drastically, and if they do, it's usually gameplay tweaks.

I just wanna know, why can someone with a PC mod do better player faces than the paid professionals?

Is it a time issue? They have to make sure new players get done in the game period, so they can't do much tweaking?

Probably because PC modders can work on one face for like a week or two if they want to. And some of them release a screenshot to show people and ask for their opinion every couple of days. If you want 2K to work like that, you'd have to expect a game every 3 years.

I'm not saying the faces shouldn't be as good as possible, but you can't compare something that people do in their spare time with no pressure whatsoever - to the tight schedule of the guys at 2K Sports.

I had an inkling that it was about time. Hence the last line.

Every screen I've seen thus far looks just like 2K10 IMO. I'm not worried about it though.

Yeah, I saw it. Just thought it was necessary to say more about it.

WOW... I live in Philly , I see this guy play all the time...Looks NOTHING like that. In 2k10 I dropped his weight down to 194 so his body type changed and I woul think they would get his hair right seeing as how he has a lot more than that. And Also ,
why do all the players have these generic Nikes , he wears his AI9 Skyposites and a half sleve. The reason I play 2k is because they usually get the little details right.
