Re: NBA 2K16 Video - Steph Curry with Mouth Guard - "Beyond the Shadows" Video on Mon

Teeth aren't a major deal to me. Neither is ankle braces or any other equipment accessory being slightly off.

But I do care about lighting. And again, many people here view it very short-sighted, it's not just about making things brighter. To me it brings out the graphic details and most importantly, brings everything closer to a TV broadcast level. I mean, isn't that everyone's goal here in terms of graphics? To immerse us into the game such that we feel we are actually controlling the players in a real life broadcasted game? Something so real that we forget we're actually looking at a videogame? It is for me. And of course it's not a deal-breaker if the graphics aren't there yet. But I do think sports game should be, and already are working to that level of realism. Hence, why some of us appear to be nitpicking this type of stuff. It has nothing to do with not appreciating what we have.

I hoped they fixed defensive, servers, basketballs going through defenders bodyparts. Rebounding/boxing out has been broken since what 2k6? A decade ago..
Preach!

Are you sure about that though? Because from what I can see in these quick time stamps below, is that proper footplanting that connects the player to the ground is still far from ideal. Notice how the characters foot slips and slides as he shoots his gun. No way does a real live person slides his foot like so.

If physics was truly present, the ricochet of firing the gun would propel that Crackdown 3 character to move back because his foot was essentially sliding all over the place when he fired.

When I'm talking about real footplanting, I'm literally talking about absolutely no 'motion shifting' by the foot whatsoever, not 1 centimeter, not 1 microcenter at all. If you want the character to move in a certain direction, I want to see the foot actually push off the ground (without absolutely any microscopic motion shifting of the foot whatsoever) and propel the person in the desired direction.

This the first thing I check for in NBA2k and any other sports game is real footplanting, especially on the defensive side.

Crackdown 3 demo (1:10) and (1:18 - 1:24). I see a lot of these type of fictitious "footplanting" visible for NBA 2k defensive players. Something is simply not translating properly from the motion capture sessions to NBA2k video game, or your other sports games.



Spoiler
It was an IGN stage demo and I'm not referring to the actual character in Crackdown but the system they are using to allow the player to destroy the entire city. Every building is destructible and each physical piece of destruction in the world is tangible. Obviously that isn't possible on systems alone because of the computing power needed so they are using cloud servers to account for the extra juice needed. Each particular section of the city is tied to an individual server and it's even so detailed that if a piece from one building crosses into another servers section it becomes a part of that server instantaneously.
Now obviously 2k (or pretty much any sports game) wouldn't need THAT much computing power, but you get the idea. Being able to use the cloud for extra computing power would remove those restrictions for physics and A.I.

Just like in the other thread, you saying the lighting bothers you, and others thinking you (and us others) are nuts.
Bruh

You've been complaining all year about the game but a chipped tooth though?

I mean

We aint talking about the game you play

The game you burn 100s of watts of electricity for

Not the game you lose sleep over

Not the game you look forward to getting hyped to every year

But we talking bout a chipped tooth

I've played way too much NBA 2k to admit, and the rebounding has always been a strong point for me.

Bruh! I knew someone was going to go there, hell even I thought about it for a brief moment Lol

Have to say though 2k devs obviously check out these threads, just wished some of these little nit picky things didn't take up so much of the threads so they could read through things more easily to see the bigger issues that may need to get tweaked or fixed.
