Yeah. 2k may have done themselves in by making the graphics jump too big last year. The fact that people are expecting that level of a jump each year is comical.

For those who "weren't wowed" no worried I got enough wow for everyone WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW. YAKKEM.

I just have one issue at the moment ag=fter watching multiple time. 2k stated that they had new facial scanning tech and scanned almost 100% of the NBA, however i'n not really seeing this implemented. Unless they meant ne rookies and players they missed last yr. I was expecting more accurate CFs, some are awesome, some are from 2k14. LD2K, can you answer this? Still getting game for PC because of customization, so really doesn't matter I guess. Just curious.

No need to defend 2K, the graphics do look worse. I'd like to see a comparison between a few different screenshots between 2k15 shown in this trailer and 2k14.

They meant pretty much everyone was scanned, it didn't mean that they'd rescan the ENTIRE NBA when it's not needed. Everyone that was scanned was perfect because they were scanned. Everyone that wasn't stuck out like a sore thumb and they got them. Some faces look weird with the animations they do when playing but they are on point for the most part. The only player I've seen that wasn't scanned is Damian Lillard and I guess I get why considering he's EA's cover boy. Outside of that, everyone was done.

Again, it makes 0 sense to waste resources scanning people again after they are already there. Perfect example is Rose. He was scanned last year but he was pale and looked weird overall. Now that he has his hair and beard and his skintone fixed he looks perfect.

# 248 newgeneration11 @ 08/25/14 11:05 PM

Hope they fix Lilliard to look better than last year.

He's not defending anyone, he's stating the obvious truth. This game looks damn near EXACTLY like it did last year, besides a few things they've altered when it comes to the lighting. Now if you don't like those minor changes that's fine, but it's not like they went from 2k7 graphics to 2k8 graphics.

# 250 exposedaking @ 08/25/14 11:10 PM

Some players could've been re scanned, for example LeBron...or at least tweaked his skin color, he is too light in the face

# 251 Smirkin Dirk @ 08/25/14 11:13 PM

Anyone else thinks Curry's jumper looks off?

I know, I know. Pedantic.

That doesn't need rescanning though. Now if we want to talk about 2k's art team not doing minor changes sometimes I agree they lack there. But trying to rescan dudes after the hassle it was to do it the first time isn't a good use of resources.

One of the main reasons I don't trip off the super minor things they probably already fixed

# 256 Rockie_Fresh88 @ 08/25/14 11:19 PM

Lol nothing wrong with the graphics . Are y'all serious .

Well he did lose weight so they could've rescanned him, seeing that his face is more slimmer..but its no big deal. It still looks good

This is an old build my man.

Y'all should know this by now man. When they drop these trailers every year it's the same thing over and over. It's not the final build. Just taking a stab in the dark guess here, I'd say this build is from mid to late July.

# 259 johanan anneus @ 08/25/14 11:27 PM

All y'all need to do is look at 2k7's graphics...

# 260 Trackball @ 08/25/14 11:52 PM

Any and all talk about graphics should end right dang here.
