New CAP system

Re: New CAP system

Most of these games, you never get anyone who works for the game to respond. Guy responds on a Friday night in a forum. People still want blood but I'm the bad guy here.

Re: New CAP system

LD2K just responded that he would look into it. Did you not see that? We have no choice but to wait. What do you want me to do, cuss him out on Twitter?

Lol... no. Not suggesting that at all. But your post suggested this was one of those 6 months before release over reactions/meltdowns based on a shaky cam snapshot.

Fact is there is NO WAY they fix this by release. Mark my word. I am a generally a positive guy. But its a done deal. The only thing I can see them fixing is making the facial features more distinct. But that is a stretch.

Of course I hope I'm wrong.

People just said in this thread that they are hoping for a patch on this before the game comes out.

That would be great. Hope it happens. Given what I've seen over the past several years it's doubtful. Hate to be cynical but I'm just disappointed that such a major aspect of my 2K experience is gone.

Re: New CAP system

So if I was to get this passed a long,... would the main concern be adding back facial sculpting?

(I know we have wishlist items like WWE 2k creation etc.)

but it that the main concern?

ABSOLUTELY. The lack of facial sculpting is the primary issue IMO.

Lack of faces and sculpting. The fear for me is that would see the same faces throughout a draft class and eventually your Franchise would have a bunch of doppelgangers. I've seen this in NBA Live and Madden. After all the real players retire, you're stuck with the same,faces

It's by far and away the most glaring issue at the moment (along with lack of skin tones, freckles, pock marks, discolorations, etc)...Gameplay feels as good as it's been since 2k11 IMO

Re: New CAP system

To see TGOR say he is passing on this year because of no sculpting, there are tons of classic roster makers that will be affected by this. He is the reason why I play 2k year round. This is a huge loss for the community..I'm hoping that the CAPS will still be ok when we play around with the system, if not then I hope a patch comes soon..for draft classes and retro, we absolutely need the sculpting back or 2k is going to lose a major following.

Re: New CAP system

I'll be monitoring feedback on CAP specifics and handing it over to the producers.

Give us back the NBA 2K17 CAP System please, lol. But if you'd like a list on specifics...

Main concerns:

1. Straight-On Sculpting/Profile Sculpting was better than "Skull Width/Height"
2. Features (Asymmetry, Blemishes, Discolorations, Freckles, Pock Marks)

Little concerns:
3. Tattoos
4. Body Types
5. Signature celebrations (after jumpshot, dunks, etc)
6. Goggles & Face Masks
7. As many hairstyles/facial hairs as possible

Re: New CAP system

The people would like all of the 2K17 face creation features back, at minimum.

Fans would like to have all of the options for online MyPlayers in offline CAP: contact/alleyoop dunk animations, certain signature dunk packages (like Blake Griffin, Dominique etc), goggles, signature celebrations, tattoos and access to all of the dribble moves.

In the future (if possible), we would also like the WWE option of importing faces through uploaded pictures. Like so: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=49n1Ni-KYXA

That's basically it. Thanks for stopping by LD

That part^

I think I would add Body Types in main concerns but that's just me. And we haven't been able 2 get our offline CAPs tats since 2k13...I'm just saying lol. But good list!!

Yeah, the ability to modify a face to make it unique and different. Facial sculpting allowed this and from the reaction in here users are very upset its seemingly been removed.

Re: New CAP system

Outside of the art devs, I don't think anyone understands the amount of work that goes into creating a new CAP system, which is what appears 2K is trying to create. To me it appears that they started over and were going to implement more customization next year.

If I recall correctly this is what they did with NBA 2K14 on PS4 and Xbox one. The difference this year being that users can't swap skintones. (Maybe I'm wrong, I'm on PC and 2K14 for us was old gen)

Being a PC modder, I have taken a crack at editing the CAP 3D models in 2K13, 2K14,2K16, and 2K17. From what I can tell the the biggest reason 2K had to change their CAP system was due to the requests to use hair that the scanned models have. I will be looking into the CAP files next week when I get the game downloaded for PC and see if there is indeed any hope for 2K18 on the CAP front.
