Could NBA 2K16 Feature Improved Body Types?

09:35 AM - January 21, 2015 by Steve_OS

Some pictures that the Miami Heat and Brooklyn Nets have tweeted out, show the NBA 2K16 team performing body scans on various players of each respective team. Could we see player specific body types in the game or are they simply scanning for updated tattoos?

Also of note. Natalie Tenerelli, a dance girl for the Los Angeles Clippers, has mentioned that she was getting scanned in.

We probably won't hear much chatter about NBA 2K16 until May or June, but this is something OSers can analyze until more details are revealed.

Thanks GoodGameBro!

That would be sweet. Don't get no more accurate than that.

Never know with 2k. Them doing this would make the game more realistic and better but then again like you said it could only be for tattoos.

That was my thought until I read that a cheerleader went and got scanned.

Ima be upset if it only the cheerleaders that get changed for 2k16.

They should get some different body types for MyCareer as well making weight make your look bigger compared to other players.

Awesome... does this mean I can get my beer belly in my park?

Man I was hoping cheerleader routines were done...they're taking up too much programming space with the same 3 min wack dancing and ugly faces...erase cheerleaders and free up space for better hairstyles, accessories and shoes

I'm all for accuracy! What about the created players body types? Would be nice if we can a nice variety for user created body types....

Still would like to know if legs get scanned as well....

All this is not important if online leagues are a mess again.

This^, should have the option to for example make your center look like shaq or more like hakeem.

I was just about to say this. MLB The Show allows you to base your My Player from an existing star.

This def needs putting into 16. especially if what they're saying is true about body scans being in next year.

Brooklyn nets players were there? Was Deron Williams there? Please please get his face scanned.

# 13 sireddieswavey @ 01/21/15 12:38 PM

Glen Davis needs that big body, hopefully we get that and a damn accurate face scan for him too lol

Yes I've been saying this for a few years now. We should be able to base our myplayer from any pro model. Giving us the option to choose from the nba players hairstyles, body types, and tattoos.

One more thing whatever happen to signature walk/run motion ( look at kobe in nba 2k14 1st trailer)

Body scans are long overdue. The technology is there so get er done 2K! Tired of players having arms that are too skinny like Blake Griffin, Serge Ibaka, Isaiah Thomas (Suns), James Harden, etc..

# 16 iboughtshoes @ 01/21/15 04:14 PM

Bodies look fine. Please fix servers.

# 17 rudeworld @ 01/21/15 04:35 PM

Looks like they're doing facial expressions as well.

# 19 CrackerJackJones @ 01/21/15 06:08 PM
