I honestly thought the body scanning (weeks ago) would only affect textures. And then I became convinced it was just upper body stuff (from the recent pics with ratings)......

This pic above shows a CLEAR difference between Wiggins and Admiral Fat Legs......

I happily stand corrected (about the body scans).....the skinny legs look fantastic!

Agreed. His 2K16 face look so cartoony. Quite ironic that he is the cover star.

I don't even know what that means..

If you didn't catch the sarcasm, the point of my post was to point out how foolish it is for you to expect a game to let you change hairstyles for over 400 different and unique head shapes.

Oh it flew through you...

I mean I did not say anything about it being easy. Just because I asked if a function can be implemented does not necessarily mean I think it is easily done.

Back when I played the Atari Basketball game, it was foolish for me to expect someday we'll have a real simulated basketball game, to have all real players' names and faces, realistic commentators, player specific dunks, layups and dribbling moves... and yet, here we are.

So why is it to you that I'm so foolish to expect a game to let me change the polygons on top of different shapes of other polygons?

But I digress.

I would love to be able to change Player Hairstyles, however that seems a bit Unlikely at this point, seen as we have never been able to change Player's Hairstyles on Next Gen and Last Gen, however We should be able to at least add Headbands/Goggles and other accessories to Current Players, we could do it on Last-Gen Consoles, however for some odd Reason we could not do that on Next-Gen, we were not even able to add Headbands and Goggles to our Created Players for Legendary Rosters and Custom Draft Classes, this was so annoying and that was the Reason why I never used Legendary Rosters for NBA 2K15, I hope this mistake was fixed for NBA 2K16!

Some people don't like the games design direction...I can respect that...

But, you got that the game was clunky and methodical from a sizzle trailer?

trust me - their passion shows (in their forum posts, blog posts, and in the quality of the game). That giant blog post by Boenisch last week was a great example of how the devs are massive fans of gaming themselves. The most passionate gamers often make good developers, and you can tell the 2k dev just plain love gaming.

To be fair, Konami's had the ability to do this in Pro Evo Soccer for as long as I can remember.

Not saying it's easy to do, but I have always wished 2K could find a way to implement it, though no real big deal to me.

You know, I would take being able to add the CAP hairstyles and stuff on top of the players. Sure, it won't look nearly as good as 2K's scanned stuff. But at least we could alter their appearance somewhat. Let me add a fro to Chris Paul if I want. Or give a Blake a huge beard.

They have Stance endorsement, which means ALL products that are available. We may also be able to customize our own socks just like we can with the shoes.

Also no Jazz. Only in 1 scene where Trevor Booker is posterized.

No Mavs, no heat.

But wait... We see crappy Sacramento Kings and Wolves like 10 times in this short video.

Strange to me.
No Dirk, No Wade, No Gobert/Hayward but we see players like Rondo, Faried, McLemore more than 1 time.

It could have been the video feed I was watching, but it did look like a lot of the animations were a little less fluid, which, to me, means it looks like more branching points in the animation which would be great. I was actually excited about it.

But then, it could have just been my feed, or video effects, etc. I hope I'm not wrong.

Did you watch the official youtube video, in 1080p 60 frames per second.

# 379 WTF @ 08/25/15 12:40 PM

Yeah, that's what I watched. Again, I'm optimistic that I'm not fabricating it in my head, and that's actually what I saw. I'm on my phone though, so that could have something to do with it.

Like I said, if you can break out of animations at more spots, then that'll be glorious.

# 380 Rockie_Fresh88 @ 08/25/15 01:10 PM

The trailer was good but ... Watching this made me cringe for some reason . Everything just looked so unguardable lol. I think I have nightmares and flashbacks about patch 4.

I know I'm over exaggerating I'm sure the game will be great and I really enjoyed the celebrations and signatures
