Ooh, where was this said? Very cool if that's the case, both in terms of trying to get it accurate in the first place and updating it if it isn't. Incredible actually if true.

I think the point is that they aren't as pronounced in every arena like they are in 2K14. The balance everybody would like is somewhere between what they look like in 14 and 15. There's reflections in 15 and we can see some reflecting of light in the Steph clip posted for 16 that there are some, but as I mentioned before it was toned down because of the complaints about the floors being too reflective after 14 dropped.












Look at the reflections in those courts compared to what's in 14

Yep that lighting in 14 sucked...15 is much better.

I wouldn't say it sucked, and neither game has gotten the lighting just right. They'll have to try to find a balance between what we had in 14 and what we had in 15.

I can't really look through threads like this. It makes me see stuff I didn't notice before, how off 2K is sometimes and it makes me start having OCD lol.

I never really paid attention to how bad the lightning was compared to x game or real life. And how x players hair doesn't have this amount of hair on the side of his hair. It starts ruining the game a little for me visually lol.

Good post king b mack. You are right that the reflections are not as visible in all of the stadiums. Most of it is because in the dark stadiums like staples and madison, the led lights are not as bright as they are in a stadium like the united center. Some of those videos you posted, the lights increase at certain times. The reflections are not visible or invisible for the whole game, it comes and goes. 2k usually has it on during the whole game(2k14) or not(2k15). They need to find a balance.

Edit: Also the players reflect on the court as well, you are just a little thrown off by the extreme intensity of the led lights.

Just depends on the camera angle you see because it does seem that way in certain shots.

In 2k14 pc they joke and call the over shiny the "ice hockey" effect. Some like it and some don't but it certainly needs to be toned from both extremes


What you cannot do on tv is have lights blaring all inside the camera to have reflections mess up your tv











I do think the modders for 2k on PC have found a great mix but one thing is for sure, the arena and the crowd should not look like theyre in a morgue

The crowd is visible, not all dark like theyre trying to hide or inside of a club at night







That said, I dont want anything to be drab in this game ever again. It doesn't look good
