NBA 2K15 Introduces FaceScan Technology, Scan Your Face, Bring it into the Game

Nice. I hope we have more body types selection this year. I want to create a player as skinny as Durant. It was impossible last year in 2K14.

I think that every year but I cant stomach the cost of a new pc for only one game. I dont play other PC games.

PC owners can buy a kinnect though so it doesn't make sense IMO to not also have it for pc

Not for a game. Luckily I use my pc a lot besides games like Internet work ms office and a bunch of other things so the powerful rig comes in handy. I def. Don't regret it.

Is this for myPlayer only or can we do this when creating rookies or our myGM? I hope its not a myPlayer only feature.

I'm pretty sure it works on dark skinned brothers given the makeup of the league. Would be a little messed up if it didn't.

They probably have automated junk detection technology.

I'm being totally serious. It wouldn't be too hard for 2k servers to peeform image recognition and check if the upload is actually a face and reject it if it isn't.

Another game has the ability to scan your face through your console camera?

Regarding the new tech...meh.

It looks like it can only be used for my Player and actual people. I'm more interested in using this tech to create lifelike CAPs of players that EA doesnt have in the game (new rookies/FA) or Legends and I dont know how that would work.

At least with EA Gameface (which admittedly is average tech that needs tweaks to get a decent face) you are using a photo so it can be used for other CAPs. 2k's tech is cool and if I was getting it for the One, I would use it but I'm getting it for the PS4 and i'm not buying a PS camera for one feature.
