2k16 Arena Specific Lights Missing?

Re: 2k16 Arena Specific Lights Missing?

Since 2k seeks realism I think they should go back and make crowd light lower....not for every stadium of course ^_^

Honestly bro playing at MSG or Staples right now is like playing on every other arena which is unrealistic at best

Its not worth it for 2 arenas

2k15 was awful for every arena looking like you were outside in the fog at night

Its hard on the eyes... If they can't do it right, stay away from the darkness

I didn't think it was that bad at all. They've certainly done it way better in the past.

The 86 Celtics are what I call unplayable at home. The lighting is horrific.

I never thought this was a difficult issue to correct(along with the crowd)but apparently it is.

Is it really that hard to get the lighting correct for 5 Arenas out of 30?

If you're going to preach realism, then this is one aspect where you shouldn't be slipping on unless you're that lazy and that's not hyperbole either.

Well the lighting is not perfect in the first place, just better. I was one of the ones adamant on seeing lighting worked on badly because 15 was a huge step back.

Maybe its something they can tun better next year.

Re: 2k16 Arena Specific Lights Missing?

Hmmm.... so no specific lighting after all?

Re: 2k16 Arena Specific Lights Missing?

Sometimes I wonder if because they don't have the MSG license they do less work on it. The blue on the court is never right, and now the lighting is wrong. You can still tell it's MSG, but it's not accurate.

That's the main reason why and people need to understand MSG will never look like MSG in 2K. If 2K accurately recreated MSG without the rights they would be subject to a lawsuit. That's why you'll always notice something dramatically off...some years it's the colors, or the seating dimensions and as you see with the lighting. Those discrepancies are intentional.

I'll wait til I see what Barclays and Staples Center look like before I start being concerned.

Going on the videos...no.

You have to remember that 2K are the absolute masters at vague comments when marketing. I.e ' we have added new lighting to all arenas" gives the 'impression' it means each arena will have its real lighting.

We have added real sounds to all arenas....gives the impression we will get arena specfic music, organ music etc etc.

In reality = we get new lighting, yes, but it is just the same stuff in all arenas.

Reality = most of the organs, music will be the new, but largely the same in each arena.

MSG has not had the right organ sounds or lighting forever basically.

That is what marketing do...they hyoe stuff, get people's hopes up. No criticism, it is their job.

You won't see them say "hey guys, we have the same generic stuff for Knicks fans again this year!"

Re: 2k16 Arena Specific Lights Missing?

Maybe they skipped NY all together for specific lighting....now I'm afraid we won't get the atmosphere either...

Now I'm worrying. Audio was bad to hear so I can't say on that but from the looks at the crowd I don't see a big improvement at all. Smh

D. Rose had a couple nice moves. Dribbling seems a lot better than last year.

What's with MSG? How come they can't get the rights to that and TD Garden?

They probably want to charge an arm and a leg for it. I never heard of EA buying exclusive rights to it.
