You couldn't manually put or edit tattoos on CAPs in '15. They would just randomly generate.

Well damn! I haven't played myplayer mode since they first added it in 2k10, this might make me come back.

Damn. That sucks. In that case I hope 2K clarifies and makes this available throughout. We can finally get real looking sleeves now. It be a shame for it to be limited to MyCareer.

If the core gameplay was OK this would have been a great addition. First and foremost they should fix the gameplay (the slide-fest on defense, offensive rebounding, player collisions, change of direction, passing, online lag, blocking, etc, etc). 2K clearly prefers devoting majority of the developers work to features they can advertise more easily (like the custom tatoos) then to the core issues like player movement and AI on defense, that are far more important for playing and enjoying the game.

Since when does the ART department work on GAMEPLAY?

Why do people continue to make these kind of comments when it's not based in any kind of reality?

Don't lose sleep on that notion; I can almost guarantee you they'll be within that range or even higher.

Funny thing about ignorance is how often people repeat each other unintentionally.

They really think there's like 8 dudes making this game who rotate responsibilities based on arbitrary wibbily wobbily bits. So when art is being added, gameplay is ignored, and vice versa.

I feel like the longer they keep us in the dark, the more likely it won't be that way unfortunately.

I mentioned this already when talking about the new arena/jersey customization being brought back as CAT and not just a mode-specific feature. You think someone would've been able to confirm this by now so my gut is telling me they couldn't make it happen so they'd rather not just say anything... hope I'm wrong tho

Yeah, that dude is weirdly cool. He really believes in what he is saying. Maybe Russians should use him to explain to people that LADA is better car than BMW or Mercedes.

We may have to get the "No customizable tattoos/headbands for CAP's, No Peace" movement started. #CAPCustomizationMatters

90% of people's day jobs aren't even structured this way....so I don't get the logic

I'm down with that! lmao.

Honestly tho, if we can get this in CAP, as well as... *drum roll* different body types? Oh man my hype meter would explode.

# 95 Cowboy008 @ 08/28/15 04:22 PM

Hopefully 2k will let us put and edit tattoos on draft class players this year.

He is honestly one of the cleverest dudes on Youtube, what better way to stand out and get tons of view than to take insane positions and have people watch the videos to see the insanity and yell at you

CAP's def was a downgrade from MyPlayer's. Hopefully they change that. They said that they're really listening to the community so hopefully that allow our CAP's to get tats, headbands and goggles

About time some "better" tats were added

This only excites me if we can do this to CAPs.
