I too don't understand the fascination with things like accessories that some have, but I realize different people have different tastes. I just hate when people complain about it as if it's a dealbreaker or call 2K lazy for not having the exact brand of knee brace or something minor like that. Yes, it definitely adds to the immersion aspect of the game to be as detailed as possible, but I'd rather fine-tune the gameplay, modes, online options, etc.

So to the 2k fans around the world i say continue to complain/nit pick because without it, we most likely wouldnt be where we at with NBA 2k12 believe that!!!!!

exactly...well said sir

Different aspects of development, and mentioning one doesn't hinder the other. Especially when there is a yearly wish list thread filled with gameplay suggestions and nitpicking. It's silly/ironic to tell people not to complain about art and graphics in a thread about graphic/art.

I don't think the Suns Gorilla has ever been on roller blades IRL.

Plus, those Suns cheerleaders don't look familiar at all! ;-)

You do realize there's a team specifically there for art, seperate from the core gameplay guys and so on? Fixing friggin accessories doesn't take away focus from gameplay tweaks.

I can't help but see this and look at the join date.

You may not have a problem with it, but a majority of those that have been on this site for more than 4 years do. Keep that in mind.

# 148 I Djm @ 09/01/11 03:42 AM

its only directed at you if you feel its directed at you. u mad or somethin>?

# 149 youngfaze01 @ 09/01/11 03:53 AM

Guy, guys just relax. It's a forum, therefore express whatever is on your mind if it has to do with gameplay or graphics. Your free to comment on any those things, if someone feels one is more important than the other, oh well. It's not a problem they have to deal with, it's 2kSports.

thats what some are trying to say they act like their money is so much better than ours. the people who care about the accessories the colors the headbands my player all helped get this game where it is now. tired of ignorant people at times

It's dropped - No need for the tough response.

Let's stop bringing it up.

Aren't we supposed to get another insight today?

I hope they release some videos with the insight (play-calling related).

# 157 Goffs @ 09/02/11 12:07 PM

yeah...if they had a vid with play calling then expect it to be delayed to next week!

Sorry if this has already been addressed, but has there been any word on whether the PS3 version won't get smitten again?
