    BTW, was that your 2k12 MJ tribute video to Balthus? That was incredible in itself. Amazing stick controls. I was able to get MJ to perform maybe half those moves, especially the post moves

    Also the starting PG of that Suns team is now the mayor of my city ;-)

For one, I'm glad Vince Carter doesn't have a beard. But for two, it was nice to see Charles Oakley have his 2000 hair. The general stuff seems solid.
      I hope they fix the proper armbands on kg and Paul pierce..they are too long

        You will probably be able to edit them. At least I hope so. I'm hoping to put the correct shoes and accessories on everyone. Also with the depth of the new create a player options. I'm wondering if you can assign mouthpieces to any playr. For example, Udonis Haslem always wore one it would be nice to give him one if it's not already included.

          It was indeed my friend! Thanks for the kind words! Got a whole bunch of MJ 2k vids on one of my channels:



          (Shameless plug)

          Still waiting for someone to post a vid up of one of the classic Bulls teams in 2k16 so we can get a real evaluation.

They still slide around all awkwardly off ball. The ball still bounces around the rim stupidly every other shot. Little exciting play. Maybe it's that zoomed out 2k camera that doesn't put me in the game, idk.

            On topic Tmac looks unacceptable, the rest look okay.. This is my beef though why can't they ever finish the job and polish the game before each installment? Like there's always one or two things in each area they can't just polish up on and make it perfected.

            I remember when 2k comes out each year me and a friend would play it religiously for about 15 straight quick matches till we were just sick of ourselves, not the game. Last year were picked it up and were living the new animations but after 3 games we seriously were bored.. It was just not fun, felt too scripted and non-rewarding. This sounds weird but it's like players are not athletic or explosive enough, that includes on shots they gather too slowly. Im getting the vibe that once the novelties where off this is the same story, I may have gone from thinking I was buying two games to buying none.

            Sorry of somewhat off topic rant I just can't stand that they can't finish anything! Why make everyone acceptable and then keep the 40 year old tmac model on his 19 year old self.. People notice that!

            Damn you mycareer!!! Taking all the development time..

                    Wow, the little things thread will be huge for 2k this year with little details like this in the game.

                      It would help if we were able to add weight to players to beef them up.

                        I see 2K still gives players like VC, T-Mac (who wore elbow pads) the large forearm band. KG (who wore elbow pad back then) has that large (Sheed) forearm/wrist band, the one he had by default in 2K14.

                        Ironically, Pierce who actually wore a forearm band, wears the Sheed one...

                        Are they creating a completely new game every year that it always reverts back? Weird...

                        Theoretically, assigning accessories to 'classic' players should be the easiest thing. You just look at pics of these guys from back then. It's not like current players that might switch accessories every now and then.

                          They are not paying attention to details of classic teams unfortunately

                            Makes me wish I had kept my PS3 and 2k games. I sold it and 2k11 & 2k12 because I thought there'd be no use for it and 2k graphics of classic teams would only get better in next-gen, not worse...

                              Yes attention to detail they need to work on..

                              It takes a few highlights/pictures to get accessories down right.. 2k just makes me scratch my head at times. I don't think they are actual NBA fans just really good animation designers..

                              Because any NBA guy pays attention to the details of their favorite players or teams. So should they I'm sick of there always being an eye sore in every mode every game every team every player just one little thing to tick you off

                                Thanks, much appreciated!

                                And yeah, totally agree with you - I should've done the same and kept 2k11 - 2k13 just for the legend accuracy.

                                As the guys above have said, how HARD is it for the art team to get simple ACCESSORIES right???!?
