NBA 2K18 Video - Developer Diary: The Art Behind the Game

I'm hoping they did Willy Hernangomez some justice. Freaking hated using him in 17 with that generic face, even though his brother had a really nice scan...

I hope they scanned Ntilikina as well.

i'm not paying another $400 for an upgraded PS4. I really hope there is nearly as much detail on the basic ps4 as we're seeing in these screens/vids.

Yeah, I sure hope so. My guess is that they will show everything on the Pro, so you may not see what the game looks like on the regular PS4 until you buy it.

I think a lot of people get it confused there's a difference between higher graphic fidelity and higher resolution, if the only upgrade is resolution for the ps4 pro and One X then everything will be the same only more crisp and clearer and brighter with the HDR for the stronger consoles.

Now if it's higher graphic fidelity then yea that can make what we have seen look totally different on the regular ps4 and Xbox one if what they have shown us is from the PS4 Pro.

From owning the Ps4 Pro and 2k17 the only upgrade was resolution and HDR so I would assume the same thing for this year's game.

Just wish we could get actual confirmation that the MyPlayer creation suite will carry over to regular CAP

its not a good sign knowing people that went to the 2K headquaters and they cant even get a confirmation, its just a simple yes or no.

So outside of tattoos what will be the difference between the two?

Visuals look awesome this year.

I'm hoping your assumption is correct. That would make the most sense to me.

I keep seeing people bring up the myplayer vs cap thing, but as I asked earlier in this thread. What exactly is the difference between them outside of tattoos? They've been mirrors of each other from a player face creation standpoint since last gen outside of the shot creator and tatts(even though I prefer the roster creator shot creator as opposed to the player one).

Like there was zero problem recreating a myplayer and putting them into draft classes or into my league.

That's going to happen in these games. It's almost impossible currently to completely eradicate that

yeah you're right about that but them not confirming it in person last week at the 2k feedback event and them releasing this video and posting the "new MyPLAYER Create a Player system" on all of social media instead just the "new create a player system" is sending mix signals idk

So you think they'd honestly make a brand new creation system and put it into one and leave the exact same system from the last game in the other? Seems like a ridiculous notion to suggest no? Every single thing in the game doesn't need a specific confirmation. That's like saying they need to specifically give us a yes or no every year that the ability to change quarter lengths is in the game because they don't actually tell us that it's in.

Why would they need to though when we all logically know that the CAP system is the CAP system no matter the mode. They probably specifically mention Myplayer because they know the general public seeing the video cares about MyCareer. Either way, whenever one is touched they both change because it's the same thing with slight differences. If they changed the actual way faces look for CAP (which is shown in the trailer as they don't all look related) then regular CAP's will have the same.

Good clipping strategy is important in the development of video games in order to maximize the game's frame rate and visual quality. Despite GPU chips that are faster every year, it remains computationally expensive to transform, texture, and shade polygons, especially with the multiple texture and shading passes common today.

People on here are very extreme lmao. They dont know how to chill & be happy with a video.

OS is wild. That video looked incredible. I was geeked out like a little kid watching it. Then I hop on the forum and the first response is a complaint about classic teams not being mentioned in a 3 minute clip. Not hating or judging, just saying... Lmao.
