    Re: Will MJ actually look like MJ this year?

    Regarding accessories, the forearm band they always give MJ seems so flat, so thin - more like a sticky tape than an athlete band. It needs more thickness, more 3d look. It needs to look like this:

    My Specs:

    ZX Spectrum
    CPU: Z80 @ 3.5 MHz
    GPU: Monochrome display
    RAM: 48 KB
    OS: Sinclair BASIC

      I like this. Definitely agree.

      2K17 also needs to ship the classic Bulls with their alt jerseys on DAY 1 this year, instead of waiting half a year, then releasing them due to demand only for roster editors having to start from scratch just to be able to use them in a fresh save.

      Oh....and please. FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THINGS RETRO - WHITE socks for the Bulls PLEASE. Or at least give us the damn option to pick sock colour!!!

        what i did was to put on ankle brace then change to white color (or black to match with black shoes) [emoji16]

          Same here. It's a crude fix, but it works. That said, we shouldn't have to be doing that in a game where you can change the colour of a damn wrist band, yet they dont have a sock colour option.......pppffftt.

                We need to be able to edit shoe and sock color for home/road/season/playoffs.

                From what I know, the Bulls wore white shoes and white socks all the time until the end of the 1988 playoffs. Starting the 1989 playoffs, they wore white socks with black shoes every playoff series until the 1995 playoffs. From the 1996 playoffs they wore black shoes with black socks.

                  Didn't get a chance to jump on it the other night, but I'll be sure to scope it out on the weekend!

                  This ^^^

                  It's damn frustrating equipping them all with ankle braces just to get the illustration of right colour socks for the specific period or part of the season they're in. A simple tab on the edit screen to change sock colour would be ideal and save a HELL of a lot of time. I'm ok on the shoe front - one of the first things I do when I get the game every year is head straight to the shoe editor and make all of MJ's home and away kicks, but it would be damn easier if we could just select home and away colours!!

                    I've been asking for sock color options since 2K11. For the love of God, 2K, give us that option! We used to be able to change sock color back in the Dreamcast days.

                      Exactly this. Someone from 2K has to know some damn history.

                            It's ridiculous how this isn't in the game.

                            You can change the colour of your damn compression shorts, which, if playing with current teams, you can't even see(!!) yet can't change a visible aspect which goes to making up part of an authentic look.

                            The mind boggles.....
