      It's very naive to think that this thread has constructive criticism in it. It's been very 2k-bashing to be quite honest.

      And LD2k also came in here with an open mind and said they'd look into it and people STILL want to throw them to the wolves.

      It's really unbelievable.

            Because they made out like we were getting an NBA Live like audio experience, when it appears this won't be the case.

              Pretty much. I just spent a hour listening to the sounds of NBA 2K16, watching YouTube videos, and comparing it to the trailer. I could hear the difference in the sounds.

              For the record, I have DJ/Composer type hearing, so I can hear the subtle sounds and changes.

                I'm not even gonna bother to read all those pages. Any negativity at all on extra details like this that are absolutely an improvement is just dumb.

                It's clearly better than last year if they spent enough time to have a trailer on it and showcased a bit..like Toronto crowd level in the trailer isn't even possible in 16

                  EA and 2k have the unfortunate task of trying to balance on a tightrope of fun and sim while trying not to fall 10,000 feet to their death. Instead of a safety net waiting down below there will just be angry customers quick to move out of the way and talk of their failure.

                    Based on what? Has additional sound footage been dropped.

                    It's still better than last year.

                      2K Sports never made that claim...that was your fault for making that assumption.

                        And you judge the entire sound design of the game off of a 2 minute trailer?

                        aw bro, that new Star Wars movie is trash. Disney messed it up and didn't do Star Wars it's justice

                        oh yea? It came out last week didn't it. Who did you go see it with?

                        Dude #1
                        Go with? Nah man, I watched 15 seconds of the trailer.

                          That's not very fair...

                          1. They're only human.
                          2. They probably don't see their family or friends much at all during their work cycles.
                          3. Depression is common among game developers on these annual schedules.
                          4. They dedicate their lives to making an awesome game. You have no doubt gotten a lot of the joy out of the game; more than your money's worth. Yes it's going to have its flaws, but for the most part it's ****ing awesome.
                          5. Money or not, people wouldn't bother working on a game if there wasn't a sense of achievement involved when the game you've made makes people happy. How would you feel if a project you've put your heart and soul into for several months was met with constant negativity from consumers? (even though that the reality is that the game is actually awesome overall, despite its flaws)

                          Some people really take 2k for granted. We should be grateful that the best sports sim in the world happens to be a basketball game. That's lucky, I ****ing love basketball!

                            Like I said earlier, we won't know how much has improved until we get the game in our hands.

                            The trailer didn't really show us anything new since the 2 main issues we have can't tell us anything in 2 min trailer.

                              The fact that they constantly mentioned going to all the arenas, and replicating the sounds you hear in the arena. What the hell else is that meant to mean?

                              There wasn't a lot in that trailer to indicate they've done this. Sure I might be jumping to conclusions, but 2K has a habit of overstating what they've actually done.

                              That really isn't saying much. 2K16's audio is probably the worst of the series.

                              Travelled to all 30 arenas to replicate the sounds you hear in the arena. Why bother if you're going to only record crap that people won't really pay much attention to?

                              2K has a habit of being misleading or hiding what is truly in the game, so it's hard for me to trust them on this.

                                KGDunks you're making assumptions when you haven't even played the game yet.
