I'll pass on these ultra light stadiums and cartoon looking models of 2k16. Sorry it just doesn't look realistic

I guess we all see things differently.
... may be, but some people see more in the details.

True. Just stating that things people are pointing out are things I would never notice or even think to notice if someone didn't say something. And its certainly something I won't notice while playing the game.

For me the players and the game look amazing.

Man I was expecting at least 0.3 seconds of a Jazz player (usually getting dunked on) but this time there is no jazz at all

Yeah i get you but on the other hand some things are definitely noticeable whether you yourself notice it or not.


I'm not trying to get into it though. This forum has kinda turned me off and i honestly dont care to even attempt to give feedback here anymore.

I'll be enjoying the work all the devs put in together when it drops im sure like i always do.

For me they aren't...

Look I'm not saying people are wrong for their opinion or anything of the sort, just stating mine.

Personally, as long as the animations are fluid, I'm not too fussed about the minor details of a player's face. I probably wouldn't even notice their muscle definition too much "in-game" when the camera is zoomed out.

Not only is Chris Paul beardless, they literally made him clean shaven when he's like the opposite

NBA Live didn't get everything right, but most of their faces are flat out better. I appreciate their art more now.




Live definitely does some things better in the art, visual department but I feel like that doesn't always translate from a gameplay camera. gameplay and animation could play a role here. Life like, photo realistic graphics lose usually an edge when the animations aren't fluid. Whatever it is I always think Live looks great in screenshots a even trailers but while playing I'm not as impressed.

Players look more unrealistic or something. Cartoony even. Just not blown away by this.

I realize they wouldn't do that ($$$$$$), but it'd probably be for the best.
But you have to remember what the developers want and what the publisher wants and says are two different things. Rob Jones said that the week early release date thew them off. Which tells me that they don't have much pull or say when it comes to development time. That's got to be tough for a developer. Some people harp on the developers for the things that don't get fixed but they need to remember that the developers only have so much time to hit everything. I'm sure there are plenty of sacrifices in terms of areas they want to improve each year.

As great as extra development time would be it will never happen for a game like 2k unless sales really go down or there is an issue during development. I love 2k but my hope is that at some point the nba Live team fully utilizes the extra development time and delivers a ground breaking experience we've never seen before.

Cartoony though...
 
# 298 3mir @ 08/22/16 09:22 PM
Fix the damn courts! Lighting looks horrible, way too dark btw.
 
# 299 ProfessaPackMan @ 08/22/16 09:23 PM
Well, cartoony only has one definition so it's not like there's much to explain.

Unless that's just the hyperbolic effect, in which I can understand because that's been the overriding theme for the last week.
