First NBA 2K18 Screenshots

Re: First NBA 2K18 Screenshots

2K14 was a ridiculously limited game. The game graphically was great, but they offered very little virtually everywhere else

Agreed. If people look closer to the 2k18 screenshots that are coming out they will see the crazy amount of details that are in each player.

The lighting in 2k14 was one of the fakest parts of the graphics because every player was instantly drenched in sweat thus having such gloss repelling off of them. It's not like that in real life unless you have those over active sweat glands. Also everyone in 2k14 had the exact same body type.

I'll rather have closer to real life characters than the lighting effects. People just gotta pay more attention to the details.

The up close details are cool, but ain't nobody playing the game that view. So they probably won't be that noticeable most of time...What really matters is how well the colors pop & how well the lighting reflects off of players from further distances (like broadcast view)

2k14 undeniably nailed that aspect down better than any other game since it's release.

Only thing I disliked were the glossy courts. That's it.

Agreed and I would trade the dull dark look of the players for the glossy courts anyday

Most of those 2K17 player faces are vastly improved over the 2K14 version.

For one, the worst possible expressions were picked for all of the 2K17 pics...

but to 2k's fault- they did something weird with the eyes this year that made players look a bit goofy when they made certain faces...

Every single time bruh. I even think Body types in 2k14 looked better than the ones in 2k17

Just imagine 2k17/2k18 face scans, under 2k14's graphics engine.

You think so? Maybe it is the lighting but the ones on the left look much more like actual people.

Yeah these pics aren't a good example. But I do think that overall the scans of the non-big name players in 2k17 >>> the scans of the non-big name players in 2k14

I think something went horribly wrong with the 2K17 Dion Waiters haha

I just dont think its a fair representation of what NBA 2K17s faces looked like..



Now like I said, whatever they did this year with the expressions/eyes kind of jacked some faces up when they emote- but I definitely think the above pics look human..

EDIT: Now Dions is definitely better in '14 not sure what happened there haha...

Understood. I think it goes both ways. Some faces in 17 are better. No body types in 17 are better however

Re: First NBA 2K18 Screenshots

looks good i guess, but the models could use a boost to their upper trap muscles.

Re: First NBA 2K18 Screenshots

Lol 2K14s graphics were so overrated.

The lighting was impressive, I'll give you that. Face scans are much better now, player body types are infinitely better, jerseys fit better, shoes are more detailed, accessories are more detailed, the arenas have more people on the sideline.

You guys love to reminisce about the lighting back then but I remember people complaining that the lighting was overdone.
