Court/color/filter/hue pics of 2K22 vs 2k23

[AIRJ23]

23 definitely seems a bit more washed, but by design? Seems to have a hazy smoky effect like some older 2K’s. Also seems to have a pink hue to it. I dunno what I think yet compared to 22 which I like a lot due to the rich saturation of colors. I wonder if the filter for 23 can be turned off? I have a feeling it’s permanent.

The top pics of each court are from 2K23.

Some more. Top pics of each court are 23.

And last batch. Does anyone have a link to 2K23 gameplay on the Bulls court btw? Curious to see how the reds look.

Just looking at that Barclays screenshot brings me to this screenshot of a game from last year. Easily one of the darker courts in the league in terms of surrounding crowd lighting. Kinda bummer on the aesthetic side coming from a Nets fan

Yeah the 2K22 court pic I posted looks MUCH closer to that.

So far I’m definitely leaning on liking 22’s courts and colors better. Arghh

Don’t want to beat a dead horse, but I took the two pictures and compared them. The difference is actually pretty staggering for a next generation game.D2768715-DDB0-4001-9B0A-C8F1EC62212C.jpeg

NOOOO THEY WASHED OUT THE BULLS COURT HARDWOOD!!!! I play all Bulls games and ALWAYS appreciate how warm they have the hardwood in 2K22. Not only does it look good and rich but playing that many games, it goes a long way in being easy on my eyes. Whenever I play a road game in an arena with icy white cold hardwood, it’s super jarring.

Def not happy about this.

The ONLY court that seems to look more accurate so far is the Celtics court. It just so happens to be warm (which seems rare in 23 vs 22) and the real court happens to have that pink ish hue 2K23 has as a standard filter.

But mannnnn I’m really bummed about the Bulls court. I know it sounds crazy but almost enough to be a deal breaker. I’m gonna support the game regardless for their work done on Jordan and era’s, but playing full 82 game seasons staring at an ICY WHITE Bulls court is way too hard on the eyes. I really can’t even explain how much I enjoy playing Bulls home games in 2K22 due to how soothing and warm the floors look compared to some other teams. Also 2K22 Bulls court is WAY more accurate to real life. The real court is much warmer, like 2K22.
