A Top Notch NBA 2K Create a Player Feature

Re: A Top Notch NBA 2K Create a Player Feature

I know **** about wwe but I'am guessing there isn't new hyped up characters every year like there is in the NBA with the rookies and overseas players.

Overall I just don't really see the incentive for them to spend ressources and time on developping a great CAP feature. It might happen but I just don't see it.

Not trying to piss on your parade guys, I'am with you on this, just playing devil advocate.

The WWE has just as many (if not more important/better) new faces annually that need to be included. Just this last year the game was "missing" (or omitted) at least 10 or 12 important wrestlers. The fans of that series need to wait an until calender year for them to be added. People do include them as CAP's, but that isn't as viable because of all the little nuances wrestling characters have.


It only benefits them to include a better CAP system, so they can actually make missing players (which there are a ton of every season) look more life like. I doubt they like looking at a bunch of cavemen, CAP's being passed off as real NBA players or subbing for them.

With a top notch CAP system (which includes tattoos, body type and face altering) they could recreate almost any missing player until the next calender year when their "official" version is included.

Like I said, every other sports franchise has a good/great CAP system except them. They all come out with annual releases as well while supplying the fans with a better CAP system.

The crazy thing to me is that it's not like 2K has to create it from scratch. They already have an awesome CAP suite under the 2K umbrella with WWE. I know it isn't as simple as cut and paste but I seems like the heave lifting is already done.

Personally, I think 2k's CAP is better than any of the other big sports games and it's not even close.

2k must be the only game you play, then.

I don't think you'll ever get it simply because that's not in 2K's interest to give you such a tool. Before you know it you'd see almost 100% accurate rosters popping up and that's less incentive given to the customer to buy their next game.

I have a 2016/2017 roster but just the fact that Ingram is an ugly CAP (no offense, it's as good as it can be given the tools we have) keeps me from really getting into it.

I really hope thats not the main reason why the 2k devs dont go all out on the CAP system.

Re: A Top Notch NBA 2K Create a Player Feature

In a tune somewhat tied to the CAP feature, we still need some more editing options, like ...

We need a CAS (create a Staff) feature, so we can either create a coach, an Owner, a GM, an assistant, etc, etc.

Setting what stance do a team has in terms of managing their roster, are they a rebuilding team, a selling team, a buying team, a contender team, a stand pat team ? We need to be able to set that at any point during our associations/leagues.

What is te mentality of the staff in terms of a Draft strategy, are they after the player with most upside or after the most skilled despite position, are they after the best skilled or the one with most potential of a position of need, are they just after a player that fits a team weakness, in terms of a single or couple of skills ... we need to be able to set that at any point during our associations/leagues.

We need to detach the sliders of on court actions from those that affect non court, more specifically, just the sim engine ... like they where aiming to do with the total control system introduced in 2K13 and 2K14 old gen.

We need to be able to set hotspots and hotzones, we need to set freelance offenses for all teams, to start games and for specific situations or personnel, like for situational lineups.

We need depth charts to be somwhat implemented and related to lineups management.

We need some badge or feature that is conditional, if X player goes to a contending team, he can handle a backup role, if not, he demands starting, even if there is a better player on his position(s).


Well, sorry for derailing the thread, wont post no more if I somewhat did ... just wanted to throw some things to let you/them all know, that there is plenty that we are missing in regards of "create a" and editing.

WWE continues to add to their CAP feature.

"The WWE 2K17 Creation Suite enables the WWE Universe to customize, build and share their own unique WWE Superstars, Arenas, Entrances, Shows and more. For WWE 2K17, we added new creation features, as well as focused on deepening and providing even more options for existing creation features. For example, we added many more parts, more adjustment options and elements like body hair, all of which add to the game’s massive set of customization options. We also added a full Highlight Replay system, which allows players to record video highlights from their matches. The video content can be used in our new Create a Video feature, which lets players create videos for use in things like custom entrance Titan Tron videos for created Superstars. We also deepened the Create a Show feature and added a brand new Create a Victory feature to ensure everyone can create the most comprehensive WWE experience possible. Whether players build their own worlds or simply expand on existing tools, the power is in their hands."

Re: A Top Notch NBA 2K Create a Player Feature

I know there are things I'd like to be added to CAP, but I still think 2k has a darn good one. Body Types is really the main thing I want added.

Re: A Top Notch NBA 2K Create a Player Feature

Dammit. Thats lame. I dont think we'll ever see them revamp that if they havent by now honestly. We'll have to deal with myLeague being infested by the same players on everyvteam a few years in.

Re: A Top Notch NBA 2K Create a Player Feature

This is disappointing for us multi-season MyLeague/MyGM guys. The computer generated players just get too similar and lacking in. . . personality, I guess.

Heck, I would even take them allowing that silly blue or red hair they had in 2k12 or whatever it was. Just give us something to spice it up a little. And delete the mullet haircut!

Looks like they had a hard time overall getting body variety and fidelity in the game at all this year, judging from the player models and muscle tone. Ok, I get that, it's been a short development cycle.

Hopefully they at least improved assets and variety in computer generated faces, hair styles, and even names. Play a few years in a franchise mode and you'll have to edit player names a ton to cut down on the repeats, even on a single roster. And that neanderthal face model. . . hoo boy!
