    Re: NBA 2K17 "Little Things" thread

    This is more of a question than a an actually impression...

    ... but is it my imagination, or is the weight-lifting I'm doing actually making my player's physique thicker and more muscular?

    It would be damn cool if it did.

    I have a 263lbs, 6'8 power forward, so a brick of a dude. But when I started MyCareer I thought he looked way too skinny (and adjusting weight in the player creation obviously makes zero difference to their physique).

    I've done heaps of weightlifting (max bench lift so far is 123 reps) and I maybe imagining it but I could swear my guy is actually looking thicker. Especially on the court during the game. Not so much during the very annoying cut-scenes that you're forced to sit through.

    I play for the Pacers, and when I first went into the gym, Al Jefferson was my spotter. I remember thinking how much thicker he looked than my guy, but now they both look pretty much the same.

    ... once again ... really could be imagining this, but maybe also myPlayer is actually very slowly getting thicker...

    anyone else?

      honest answer? No


      and if it actually was in the game I guess 2k would have advertised it a LOT.

        Yeah I agree. But there is also the whole training cut scene story that has your player telling justice he's going to "catch up to him" after justice says you're built like a pencil.... But the actually story and cut scenes are so rubbish and make no sense anyway. Especially since my player is already heaps bigger than Justice even in the cut scenes. Not to mention he's 265lbs.

          Figured this is the best place to ask

          I just picked intro music in mycareer, but has anybody had any other intro then just the shootaround? I miss the introduction intro's and anthems we used to have, could be they're just for playoffs though, if so would love to know

                  Sounds like the target demographic for that game mode...

                    Probably already mentioned and might have even been in for a few 2K's but I like the way the backboard gets dirty/smudged over time. If those smudges were actually for each and every shot that would be next level but i doubt they are haha. Still as it is, its nice to see such attention to detail!

                          But i've never been to an NBA game in the flesh so couldnt say if it happens. The ball hits the backboard, so it must happen lol... We talkin bout smudges.
