I asked you when it is we should all start caring, but you haven't answered that question yet. And until you do, it certainly looks like your logic with this whole argument is flawed, yes.

I've already said that if it doesn't affect gameplay, it really shouldn't matter. Obviously, they shouldn't TRY to get things wrong and they should try to make things as accurate as possible, but if the puck is slightly bigger then regulation size, we'll all live.

And once again, you exaggerate the size of the puck. If it was anywhere close to the size of a frisbee or breadbox, yes, it would raise some red flags. As it stands, it's nowhere close to that size so it would be great to avoid those comparisons because they're just flat out stupid. If you think the puck is as big as these various objects that have been described so far in this thread, then I'm sorry but you're just an idiot because it's nowhere close. That's all there is left to say because no one in their right mind would say that puck is the size of a dinner plate, meatloaf, breadbox, or frisbee. I'll leave out pancake because some people make huge pancakes, others make small ones. Personally, I like the smaller ones.

So you're saying the puck is 33% bigger then it should be judging by a screen where you can't even see the full puck and there's a angle to the shot?

That's what I'm trying to get it. We can't tell from the screens because we don't have anything to compare it to. That's why I said I wish they'd have an overhead view of the puck in the middle of a faceoff dot. That way we would be able to compare it in relation to something else (scale). Right now, it's all speculation because we don't know for sure. But somehow you can get exact measurements from these screenshots...

This is why I've said I don't care. People are saying it's too big but they haven't even seen it in comparison to anything that would actually help you determine the size of the puck. You can say it looks big on the stick, but you can't know for sure because the scale of the stick isn't a proper measuring scale to determine the size of the puck.

Heck, maybe some people would like to play bobblehead hockey as long as it plays a decent game. I personally would not want to however and you win nothing with the "i dont care so you shouldn't either" mentality. whats up next, over the top fog in the ice? Oh wait...

I don't care that it's slightly bigger then it should be. In the grand scheme of things, if they don't get around to making it perfectly sized, I won't care. I'd rather have them spend time on things that actually really matter instead of something you won't notice during gameplay. Like I said before, with the camera angles we use when we actually play, you won't notice the 1 inch difference of the size of the puck. So yeah, I guess I have a "I don't care mentality" when it relates to things that really don't matter. But I guess I should care about things so petty or else I don't care about anything.

But keep going with the exaggerated comments. Now we're on to bobblehead hockey? I don't get how a small size difference that's barely noticeable (if it's even true, which we can't say with 100% accuracy from the screenshots we've been provided) somehow gets to bobblehead hockey. You guys are making all kinds of exaggerated statements to support your arguments but it has no relation to what I'm trying to say.

once again. Great that you don't care. It doesn't make it less of an issue to others. Also, it obviously is something others do care about since plenty of people have noticed it. It's not "barely noticeable" . You obviously have a different take on it. Great, now move on and get over it. Everyone is allowed to voice their opinion.

In the screenshots, the puck is significantly bigger than it should be in my opinion. That's pretty equated to anything else being significantly bigger than it should, be it head, stick, arms, whatever.

I think it looks very ********. Great that you don't. The only fact of the entire thing is that 2k drops the ball again as usual by not providing enough media to put something like this to rest. Heck, the game is less than 2 months away and we get our first look at stuff NOW?

2k = significant fail, yet again..

The puck in 2K looks bigger than in real life. That's it. That's all. And people do care about these things. And because they care, they discuss these things on discussion forums like this one. Now accept it and move on.

Alright, alright, I'm done. As usual, it boils down to my opinion versus your opinion. But I'm allowed to express mine just as you are allowed to express yours.

Okay, that's just ridiculous.

actually, what's ridiculous is that you're the only person who confuses fact with opinion. As i said, great that YOU don't find it out of proportion. Others including myself do. I don't find your opinion ridiculous. I'm actually envious. I wish i could turn a blind eye to moronic decisions like fog, seeing the breath, cinamotion, crab goalies, pucks almost as large as the blade, et al, and still be a 2k fanboy.

Come on all he slick is trying to say is its the size of the other games im sure, which is a little bigger than actual size which has been fine any other year.

# 26 JimmyDeicide @ 07/26/09 11:20 PM

Its huge but as hes saying it doesnt really take away from anything its not like its a puck from NHL 95 now is it?

# 27 tabulaRasa @ 07/28/09 08:40 PM

Turn off the puck shadow, and problem solved.

BTW, awesome proportions, and nice nice upgrade in GFX.

Honestly, with the whole puck debate, did anyone take into consideration the zoom level on the game? I mean it's entirely possible they zoomed in before they snapped the pic.

how would the zoom make the puck big without anything else?

Because to me the camera looks zoomed in on the players. In other words it doesn't look like a normal camera veiw. So being closer obviously things are going to appear bigger, right?

not really, it's not going to make only the puck bigger but yet the stick and everything else the same size.

I don't know when and where it got "personal," but okay.
