They need to either do body scans starting next year, or give us the ability to edit the length and thickness of every part of the body. Including chest, torso and waist. Looking at player models, most players legs are way too short, and editing body length doesn't fix it. Players should look 'longer'.

Big guy? upgrade mainly your inside scorer, rebounding and defense.

There was an old live game (99 maybe) where you could make a guy 7'10"

No Joke!

I think the thing is its hard for them to balance myPark and myCareer without sacrificing elements of the single player. No doubt the decision to remove big men over 7'2" is based on complaints from the community. Personally i'd just add stiff attribute cap penalties to anyone over 7'1" that increase for ever inch added after that.

So if a 7' big can reach 90 overall, a 7'1" big could only reach 88 and so on...

Great idea! I would put a cap at 7' and for every inch added, 5 overall points should be subtracted from the overall cap.

I think in the dev diaries for a recent 2k game (2k11?) the dev team was making a fuss about how height mattered.
How a 7' rated 80 was as valuable as a 6' rated 86 ect.

So if thats still the case, why not factor it into MyCareer Progression.

I know from experience how nasty a 68 rated 7'6" center can be in 2K games...

This is exactly what I've been wanting (see my many posts on the same subject).

And I agree with you that the players should look 'longer'. The player model in 2K looks terrible (big head, skinny arms, pointy shoulders). I really don't understand how they continually fail to make massive improvement to the player models. Faces look great, but player models severely lag behind as it doesn't at all represent their real life counterparts.

While the player models actually look good, for just being skinnier guys, they just need weight to make the bodies thicker. Everything else is perfect to be honest. The players look lanky and long but the thickness isn't there. Big AL, should be a hefty boy same with Zbo but they look like the 19 year old versions of themselves body wise

Guys,

I can't manage to make a big player big, i mean, all big men are skinny, i got a pf 6'8 and 280 pounds and still looks skinny.

Yes. Kevin Duckworth is skinny too. I cranked up his weight to 340 and nothing happened.
