    Re: Another NBA 2K16 livestream has popped up

    I don't understand why these streams get taken down. It's not like a random person who gets it early has signed an NDA or anything - it's the store/whatever that broke the rules, not the buyer.

    Does a person not own the footage they make of a game they bought?

    Or is the general concept of a game being streamed technically against the EULA, and companies only tend to enforce it in situations like these?

      What new tattoo option? Seem like they've only added tats for MyPlayers not CAPs.

Truly hoping they gave it some attention and didn't just slap a headband on the current Cavaliers LeBron player model and say that's good enough. What would be the point? That's not the 2007 LeBron in that case so why should I use the 2007 Cavaliers if that's the case. I'm hoping one of the greatest of all time was given care in replicating his appearance. Otherwise unfortunately all immersion is gone.
          As a long time Carter fan... I'd say doing him justice is fairly generous of you to say. I was not impressed after anticipating this forever.

          He straight up looks and plays generic, but with with boosted attributes.

          I agree WHAT is the POINT of having these retro teams if they are just ported over with boosted attributes? We could have done that ourselves with roster editing. So what's the point? To have them play along side their role players we've all forgotten about?

Same with the Euro league thread. These are small side additions that won't be as fleshed out as the main game.
            I would buy an entire seperate game for retro/classic teams if they were authentic and actually full effort into it.

            I would take that game over the current retail with all it's modes.

            Heck I've almost bought a gaming PC multiple times now JUST for the simple fact there are 2k modders out there who can create the teams I want to play with.

            The announcement of these retro 2000 teams made me hold off on that. Now I'm disappointed.

            I watch the myplayer trailer thing and instantly realize where the time had been spent.

              2k can't work off of their own work?

                Disgaree entirely.

                Of all the players in that video, vince looked the most authentic.

                Did you see the triple threat pose at the top of the arc where Carter had the ball really low? That's a signature pose from him.

                As far as how he "plays," you can't really tell from one poor half of user-controlled play.

                As far as "the point," I like to be able to play other people online using classic teams. Can't do that with user created rosters.

                  That pose is entirely just a 2k animation not a signature Vince Carter animation, while I agree the low stance was signature of him.

                  Out of the legends shown I can sort of agree he looked better than say Wade or Tmac but having followed him every game since 97 you tend to have a stronger eye for detail. And there were enough eye soars for a fan of that level (shoes, baby baby face, arena, shooting form,

                  Which is why I sympathize with others disappointed with their favorites not being accurate.

                    Really? It looked to me like old vince carter's pose. I don't remember seeing any other player hold,the ball super-low like that in triple threat.

                    Also I noticed tmac' shooting form looks way better than last year.

                    Honestly how the players look is secondary to me to how they move and what they're capable of. The looks are nice but it's more important to me to be able to use them the way they're supposed to play. Won't really know for sure until I can play the game but I really am noticing in both games that the movements for Vince, TMac, Wade etc. look pretty authentic.

                    I honestly didn't see any rhythm jumpers from vince in the video to make a judgement on it either way.

                      The thing you're right about is it is the business' fault that the game is out there. But it's also against the TOS to stream games early.

                        Like I said I've seen too much of vintage VC so I have a really strong eye for detail with everything he does down to t. It's hard for me not to nitpick with him.

                        Now I don't want to complain too much because I'm grateful he's even in the game and I'll be buying it mainly for him and the other retro teams when I thought I was going to skip this year..

                        There's this one Westbrook layup animation in 2k15 where he does his signature off balance flying through the air (low but far) scooping layup that ONLY he does in the game. Once 2k has time to add these authentic moves to each player like that where they can truly play authentic signature style scoring...oh man. I can't wait for that day because it is possible.

                        If they can do that for retro players too..which they did for Jordan in 2k11..I could care less if they were missing eyes and ears. I'm just waiting for that day.

                            With any luck maybe the negative backlash regarding Rasheed Wallace not being included as well as the inaccuracies of the Heat and Celtics jerseys and the player models for certain players being inaccurate (TMac, Wade, Alonzo Mourning, ) can hopefully be addressed. Maybe Sheed will have a change of heart and perhaps the 2k team can address the other issues with a release day update patch. That would be great.

                              The game is out this week, I think making any new changes in the day one patch is ship that sailed a long time ago

                                Not necessarily. Both the Kyrie Irving's facial hair and LeBron James hairstyle was changed on updates after the game was released. So it's not out of the realm of possibility.
