Lemme guess.....legends arenas will all be bland and generic.

# 62 lilteapot @ 09/06/16 03:00 PM

I wish they'd get rid of the generic 2k PA announcer. he sounds like a moron most of the time.

# 63 Mintsa @ 09/06/16 03:00 PM

See the 1:00 mark............that's me in that raptors crowd.

And they're worried about the SOUND of the court over the court being CORRECT. Seems like first things should be first.

I actually understand your issue. I'm a Laker fan and they mess up the Purple the Lakers use every year, I get it. That's why I wish they would fix it, cause the game appears to give you so much anguish!

Who cares about ball bounces.. but at the same time im glad its in the game.

im so confused

# 67 Urrbo1 @ 09/06/16 03:06 PM

Funny thing is the crowd still is not gonna react the right way all these chants and pa announcers are going to do those chants at the wrong time and were about 2-3 weeks away from the game dropping and they aint show not 1 gameplay we have to go scurry around youtube and find videos. Come next year half of these features are gonna be taken out and replaced with "new features" these guys are literally about drop gameplay 1 week before the game come out smh

The only thing 2K beats it in is having a PA announcer that tries to at least imitate the real life ones. Every possession is filled with variety and realistic sounds, just like what you get watching a Celtics game. In 2K we're limited to one or two sounds, and a lot of the time they're generic. That trailer showed nothing at all to indicate that they worked heavily on this area. Ball on floor and rim/net sounds are nice, but you're going to notice crowd noises, chants and organs a hell of a lot more.

I agree, the stuff they showed in the trailer didn't sound like anything new.

# 69 cmebfresh @ 09/06/16 03:07 PM

Lets just hope the crowd get hype when they are supposed to. other than that this is crap

# 70 DeathstrokeXV @ 09/06/16 03:09 PM

Man I wish 2K and MSG could agree on using the MSG name, it sucks playing at the "Knicks Arena" especially when all the other sports game have them (NHL, Fight Night, UFC)

Thats cause its not all these "new features" they are promoting has either been in the game or taken out in previous games come next year this is all gonna be scrapped and promoted as something else they showing all these trailers but cant atleast show us how the new mechanics work in gameplay that doesnt smell fishy to anybody

As a Knicks fan I sympathize with bucks fans with 2k. They finally finally got the jerseys issue behind them but our court is another thing. Could it really be Tamsin though? I mean is there a ny Knicks blue or there that can't be replicated without payment? I get the whole lack of using the msg but the blue? Besides if my memory serves me correct college hoops 2k had the licensing to msg for some tourney or season kick off game and the blue still wasn't right. I know nike owned the Michigan certain maze and blue so adidas has to alter but let's say that is true couldn't a closer version of the color be picked? I could be completely wrong. I'm guessing it's more of some kind of bug issue or something idk

May i use lit? Because that's literally lit in most convenient way! Bravo 2k !

I like most of what they showed but I see two issues:

- During the Kemba shot, the crowd hardly reacted which is the problem I've seen in past games. Hopefully the game was a blowout and Kemba's shot didnt mean anything.

- Most of the team specific sounds were already in the game. The Philly FT sound, Atlanta "Threeeeee" and the MSG organ with announcer were in 2k16. Only the Hornets announcer is new.

Thats cause msg on the low knows they still aint gonna do it correct 2k really has been half assing this game since 2k13 every year they remove and bring back like why just keep the damn thing the same

# 76 BluFu @ 09/06/16 03:16 PM

I had no problems with the crowd sounds in 16 honestly. The fact that they were completely oblivious to what was happening on the court was the major issue. Haven't heard a single mention of it being fixed at all so I'm not hopeful for improvement..

Doesn't help that it's the same announcer, announcing in the same way for every team, NBA and college.

I both agree and disagree. I think they definitely needed to update the sound of the net and rim. Seeing as how we hear these sounds 100+ times per game, it is very noticeable how bad they were. I think 23 has been making a thread on this exact thing for the last few years.

That being said, I absolutely agree that the crowd reaction has been one of the weakest areas in NBA 2k. I feel the same way about the commentary; neither seems to really recognize what's happening on the court.

Hopefully there's a lot more to the arena atmosphere than what was shown in the trailer. I would love to finally have dynamic crowd reactions, and the arena/organ music and chants that happen on both offense and defense for each team.

# 78 gregsactly @ 09/06/16 03:16 PM

Not realistic. Atlanta's arena is more than half-full.

# 79 MontanaMan @ 09/06/16 03:17 PM

Don't know why people always complain about 2K prioritizing the Park over everything elslewhen they are doing all of this lol.

They haven't even mentioned online at all.

A minute of the trailer was devoted to just that.
