Some of the coaches should have glasses. I don't think any do.

Re: New CAP system

A friend gave me a copy of the PC version, I gave it back today.

My pc has a good processor and ram but a ****ty graphic card so i really can't play the game there, but i got one week learning about modding on this version.
I can tell you I'm just waiting to go back to europe to buy a good graphic card and throw the xbox one out of the window.
It's another world. All the euroleague players have their cyberface in the game, for example, so you just can add any of them to the roster.
Also there are tons of hidden cyberfaces.
If you don't like a player's body, you just edit the player PNG and change his appearance.
Somebody added a patch that got better sweat and muscles effects on the players while playing.

Really guys, all the gamers who can afford it should seriously think about buying a gaming pc and change to pc, just like i will do soon. A mid range gaming pc will cost you 500-600 and you'll be able to play 60 fps 1080 without problems. The level of customization is mind blowing.

Really, for me there is no other solution. In the PC version you can solve 99% of the "art" problems of the game, and since we all agree the gameplay for offline gamers is still the best in the business...well, you do the maths.

Re: New CAP system

Keep system the same BUT add the selection of features such as skin color, eyes, chin , etc based on a preset along with that slider. For example, let's say you choose appearance 31 as your base(1st choice you can make in the 2k18 CAP menu). Next, you could choose Skin Tone and you choose Appearance 5(Which would be the color tone of head preset 5), Skull Width (Appearance 1)+slider, etc, etc. This would help creativity a great deal because there are many eyes, lips, etc that are impossible to put on certain presets and this would alleviate that issue..

This on top of more hair and facial hair options would go a long way in improving this CAP system

That sounds like the best of both worlds. The drawback to full on sculpting was that outside of the default Black dude, everyone else looked weird unless you were a skilled CAP maker. I still think it should at least be an option, though. But what you described would be perfect. It also seems realistically possible. I wanted the WWE cap years ago, but inferring from Davez's comments about tats being tricky I think what you described is a lot more realistic. The positive is that 2K is aware of how the community felt about CAP. Solve one issue, create another. Them adding the facial hair option, as small as it was, bodes well going forward imo.

Re: New CAP system

Sounds great & all but none of my friends are nerdy enough to play on PC. Its great if you play games alone, but if you play with other people periodically Xbox live is where its at.

Re: New CAP system

Patch CAP again - this is not "create a Player" it is "choose a Player"...


much more Headpresets at least needed...


Create or edit Draftclasses is one of the most exciting Things in the Game when you play MyLeague....


here you create/choose only Twins...

garypayton,

Maybe a move to get more people to buy the PC version! Ha I don't know but I do know that I was going to invest into the modding side for PC. Seeing your post just reminded me why I should just go ahead and give it the Green light! Going to start researching! and make my My League player look more like me!

Re: New CAP system

lol when y'all realize 2k doesn't care too much about accuracy at this point. I'm playing with Dennis Smith Jr & he's not dunking aggressively, so I go check his signature animations. His dunk packages are basic one handers/rim grazer/ & an athletic package. Anyone who ACTUALLY watches basketball would know DSJ dunk packages being basic and rim grazer is literally false. He has a 44 inch vert. So someone tell me how something so basic gets overlooked, but there is NEVER an issue with purchasing or buying stuff with VC? Once agai it seems 2k18 highest priority is VC... I mean this a basketball game with nearly zero replay value because it's set up for a 1 time run, storylines don't branch off so replaying any mode becomes repetitive very quickly.

2k has constantly been...beyond poor in creating accurate players. They get "accurate stats" for one year, but they don't get anything accurate beyond that. Just look at myleague and sim past year one. Utter TRASH. It has to do with a complete lack of accurate tendencies by per 36 or anything game related. 2k is built on a one year model, which is why you see ENTIRE edits to rosters and tendencies for people that love myleague. NBA2k is simply put, lazy. ONE dude, shameless plugin for Sonicmage, has made an entire algorithm for every major tendencies and most of the stats for this game and get this...you get accurate play styles, stats and attributes that stay accurate beyond one year! It's almost like using statistical basis for your ratings makes real players rather than random attributes to make overalls look nice...of which they still need random attributes that do nothing to contribute to the game beyond making overall.

side note this isn't really the threat to be talking about this .

Anyway, beyond just CAP, why did they get rid of the ability to edit wingspan/shoulder width etc in roster? I know its not exactly CAP related, but it has to do with the whole set of 2k18 just heavily reducing the ability to edit player models for no reason.

Hoped also they would patch CAP again, but it seems that was it for this Year...

Re: New CAP system

I honestly don't think that it needs defending. They went with a new CAP system. It is more limited, but it produces more realistic looking players. Playing ML this year I'm loving the way rookies look now. I drafted the pg of the future for the Knicks in one ML. Hes has been a stud and he actually looks like he belongs in the same graphical universe as Kristaps. Going into his 3rd season I gave him (as well as a edited a few other game generated players) a full beard and fro to change it up. It really makes the league feel like its evolving. I've also noticed other players with his face, so it limited. It's the first year of a new system, though. I think we need like 100 more head presets, ability to change skin tones and sculpting like last year and everyone would be happy.

In all honesty you need to stop. The players don't look anymore realistic than last year when you could completely sculpt an accurate face. This is literally a terrible CAP model this year. Lol and if you believe they put effort into than explain to me why they had to patch in the choice to choose eye color ? I don't even even think you can choose your skin tone this year. Their effort is laughable, their arrogance is a slap in the face

In all honestly I don't need to do anything. I'm fine with CAP this year. And yes, every single player in ML looks better than anything 2K15, 16 or 17 produced. I'm happy as a clam. Give me more head presets and tats and I'm golden. Understand that you don't speak for the entire community. Hell, even others who initially hated the system have come around to acknowledging the good aspects of it. Hopefully it is improved upon next year. If you expected some major change to CAP this year you're the fool. That's your fault. At least 2K tried to placate you people. It was never gonna be enough, though. Regardless, it is what it is. Moaning about the devs supposed lack of effort isn't gonna change anything. If youre so offended about the lack of effort in your eyes then you know what to do. But you won't, will you? You'll continue to be here crying and moaning getting worked up until you eventually get banned like that 2Kcharles dude. Lol, it ain't that serious.

Re: New CAP system

I refuse to let this thread die I will complain as long as these bald braids are in game. I’m a die hard 2k fan but I was just notified that Lives developers are on Twitter asking their community what they want for their hair,shoes, faces and etc.
