lol, ok man, stop, just stop. Does that make all of us here that cares about fashion like having ill SHOES "metrosexual" too? Do you wear a uniform everyday, aka have no sense of style, jeans and plain white tee? lol

As consumers we don't make the decisions, but they do give some weight to what is being said in the gaming community. 2K Sports more than any other company (such as EA, especially in terms of Madden ) is well known for listening to customer feedback. And, for the record, I'm no yungin', I've been playing virtual basketball games since Double Dribble, and Jordan vs. Bird

All fair points.

I don't have an issue with constructive criticism. I just think some of this goes way beyond that. It's finding things for the sake of finding things. And I'm confident these guys want to better themselves and get better jobs therefore doing their job well shouldn't be an issue. The major stuff will get fixed. It always does.

So will a few guys at OS complaining about the lighting make 2k15 or 2k16 look any different to you?? See this is what I don't understand about some of you, if someone makes a complaint about something that I like about the game it doesn't bother me you know why, because I will still enjoy it, now if we were complaining and wanted something to be removed that you like then that's another story, but people are asking for something to be added to the game and like you said it can always look better so why just settle and stay content.

I'm not saying settle. I'm saying appreciate what you've got. Don't complain. Give constructive criticism. And just state it and bounce. Lighting and hair doesn't need to be a 30 page debate. I'm with you on the lighting. 2k14 was better in that regard. But that's all that needs to be said. It doesn't need to turn into such a big deal. And I'm talking more about the complaints of ashy elbows and hair being marginally roo spikey or whatever. Like come on. I remember when hair looked painted on. Give me a break. They improve every year with or without people whining.

And it's not constructive criticism if you don't offer a solution or idea on how to make it better. Without that you're just moaning.

And we haven't even seen any video footage yet. People are blowing their brains out over a few screen grabs smh.

It's his hair. One players hair has a 30 page discussion. Seriously? How big an impact is it going to have on the game. Really? It's not like they gave him a ginger dreadlocks. His hair could be improved yes but its pretty close. People should just be saying "his hair looks a little off but whatever". It shouldn't be a 48 hour discussion or brainstorming session.

I don't get it.

I guess it's just me.

I understand and your right it has blown up over the past few days, but some of the same guys complaining about hair and ashy elbows are the,same ones saying guys like me are nit picking about the lighting. Lol

Knowing 2k they won't really listen unless we make it loud. Look at the fate of crew. How many years did it take for 2k to finally bring it back even though there were many shouting and screaming for it over a while? If we keep quiet then 2k will not know exactly what to improve on. It's not as simple as you are making it seem.

Hahaha. Okay you got me. I'm saying why has three still images generated 30 pages of people bitching? Like how long can we discuss Stephen Curry's pubes or whatever we're onto now.

This topic should have ended 20 pages ago with everyone agreeing it looks awesome. Lighting needs work but that depends on preference (whether you like the warmer tones) and Curry's hair needs fixed a little.

Can't wait for video.

Why has THAT^ taken 30+ pages and we're still not there yet.

I don't get it. Sorry. Clearly I'm in the minority here. Might actually be the only one. But I can't wrap my head around why a dudes hair gets a 30 page discussion while threads about actual basketball related stuff barely cracks 10 pages.

Are we basketball fans or hair stylists?

I disagree with that. They took crew out because it was broken. Seven footers everywhere and cheese galore. They said they would bring it back when they could find a way to make it work.

Yes they do listen to the fans and there's a lot of stuff they've listened to and implemented well.

But they do not need thousands of people telling them Stephen Curry's hair ain't all that.
