Idk it just baffles my mind how this game can be so detailed but yet they can't seem to get something as basic as player models down. Most players in the NBA don't have huge traps like NFL players but in 2K they do. Most players in the NBA have broad pronounced shoulders but in 2K they don't. This type of stuff really puts a damper on the game for me. I get that it doesn't bother some people but I'm big on authenticity & immersion. Player models need to be top priority next year.

I'm with you on this. It's like they're going backwards in progress and not forwards. 2K14 had everyone skinny, 2K15 they made some progress, 2K16 had some too big, 2K17 is a mix between 2K14 and 2K16. It doesn't make sense that a better body type is available in game, but they choose something totally wrong for most of them.

This may be the first year that I skip a NBA 2K game if they can't patch this stuff.

You guys have to think in business terms 2k is in bed with ps4 and Xbox One so their screwing up player models up on purpose on the current consoles so when the ps4 neo and Xbox Scorpio come out people will be like wow look at the graphical jump from the current consoles. Player Models will be on point, player detail, photorealistic faces, you got to be a fool to not think 2k holding back graphically, people would jump at the opportunity to abandon the current consoles and game to upgrade to ps4 Neo and Xbox One since it is a cartoon direction 2k is heading in, for photorealistic graphics knowing we had that already in 2k14.

It's fine to criticize the models, but to say 2k is going backwards is one of the most preposterous things I've read.

That's a stretch. The Neo and Scorpio aren't even going to be huge leaps ahead graphically speaking anyway.

Just think about how cell phones work nowadays you download a app than the app comes out with new features but you have to upgrade to the new iPhone, android to get it and you upgrade. Just think in business terms 2k is in bed with ps4 and Xbox One this is all a plan to upgrade consoles, Easports is involved also.

That isn't always just so they can add incentive to upgrade though. Sometimes that's due to how rapidly technology is advAncing right now and how much the consumer is demanding it be upgrading.

Trust me, they wouldn't be be putting out annual improvements if the consumer wasn't demanding it. Just like this would be solved if 2k went every other year. It'd fix a ton of these issues, but we wouldn't like it.

Lol do you actually believe that ? Everytime they add something they have to sacrifice something else as shown by 2K15 and 2K16 compared to 2K14. Theses consoles are giving all they've got especially since they want to maintain 60 fps wich they just are barely able to do.
