NBA 2K12 - Let's Talk About NBA Authenticity, Artistic Improvements

[aloncho11]

It would be nice to see Classic Teams have proper fitted warmup suits. It would also be nice to see short sleeved ones for teams like the Celtics, Lakers, Pistons, Early 90's Heat, Early 90's Sonics, etc:

It would be cool if instead of making celebs playable characters (which we never use), use their likenesses to fill up the courtside seating in the arenas.

Drake is usually at Heat games with Lil Wayne.

Snoop could be seen sitting courtside at Laker games.

So on and so forth.

Don´t Know about the graphic details of NBA 2K12, but for 2K11, many HD quality faces and jerseys were made:

My own thoughts for specific ARENA Improvements. Qouting and Adding on from the 1st page from PARED.

Arena Specific

"-Camera Angles! Create a camera angle setting called "Arena" and make it specific to that arena. Don't think your customers can't handle a slight change in angle - we can!

-New Orleans - Benches are reversed; Home is on the left, Visiting on the right (if you are facing the scorer's table)

-Verizon Center: Please fix the arena lighting. You guys have them playing in lights out lighting, and it's not the correct lighting used when watching their games on TV. The crowd should be very visible and the court lighting should be much brighter. The lighting you had in 2k10 was correct.

EDIT: Also the Overhead Jumbotron should be lower and Bigger! And please Add the Banners.

-Staples Center (Lakers) - Not dark enough on the crowd.

-Staples Center (Clippers) - Red needs to be more red. Looks more pinkish than red.

** WE WANT TO SEE A DIFFERENCE playing @ Clippers(LIGHTS ON) and Lakers(LIGHTS OFF)

-MSG was very well done!

-Oracle Arena (Warriors) - Colors are off, especially the blue. Real life vs. In game.

-America Airlines Arena (Heat)

-Taget Center (TWolves) - Fix Lighting

- Please add the REAL Amway Center in Orlando.

-United Center(Bulls) There Arena is fine. But where are the REAL Championship banners? And Retirement Banners??? I dont see why not? They included the Sixers, Heat, and Celtics banners.

- Finally ADD and AUTHENTICATE Houston's Toyota Center http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2384/...da0cc96c59.jpg

I am just saying and suggesting the "small things" to have aunthenticity in NBA2K also starts with these Arena's atmosphere's. It's where we play! Aside from presentation and Gameplay/Graphics, I believe this somewhat plays a role on making the game fun. Like Madden "Its what you see on Sundays" or MLB 11 The Show "the little things" I feel that 2k should be able to do these things too.

It is kinda like a blower when you see the LAZINESS or (maybe not that they probably dont think it is a big deal) when it comes to the arena's seeing PLAIN BANNERS with just the teams name instead of the actual championships. The "Small things" ya know.

Also I would like to see them atleast aunthenticate some real DLEAGUE Arena's so the atomosphere wont be dry. Or atleast have certain types of default arena's where you can also use it for creating a team.

Thats all I have for now!
