NBA 2K12 - Let's Talk About NBA Authenticity, Artistic Improvements

Not sure if this falls into this category or not, but I think 2k needs to find a way to include varying wingspans in this game. For example, a guy like George Hill that's only 6'2" but can guard some SFs because his arms are like something you'd see on Inspector Gadget.

This, and like you said it should actually have specific instances where it comes into play, it's not enough to just make them have longer arms, it should come into play when guarding larger players on the perimeter, rebounding etc.

Players are just too damn muscular across the board.

Pretty sure this is already in:

Players with high pass ratings have opportunities to throw bad passes in the same situations bad passers do, except that their likelihood is significantly decreased in every situation. Tight on-ball defense can force turnovers...especially if the on-ball defender has a size or wingspan advantage on the passer, which can lead to tipped passes.

I'd also like some "injury specific" accessories, finger sleeves, knee/ankle braces etc. Maybe some that could even "boost" your recovery along slightly like Jordan shoes?

player face that need fix:

add the beard, speaking of beards James Harden beard needs to make into 2k12 lol.


Player models needs to be fix, James Harden had one of the worse player model in the game, add wingspan, make the models less bulky.

Maybe for 2K12, but wingspan is definitely not in 2K11. Bill Walker of the Knicks really needs a new cyberface, he looks like a troll or frog in 2K11. Adding wrist tape/wrist brace to the accessories would also be cool.

I'd like to get the Derrick Rose leg padding in 2K12.

Some things for the Bulls:

Derrick Rose has black hair (in the game it's brown)

Noah's beard

Luol Deng is bald and has a body that isn't as skinny

Boozers facial hair (he also seems a little more pale IRL)

Keith Bogans face

CJ watson's hair and facial hair

Kyle Korvers hair

Taj Gibsons hair and facial hair

Omer Asik

Or at least a Wingspan editor.
I would rather see longer wingspan defenders tip passes away rather than VERY fast reacting cpu defenders
Especially for My Player. I want to have a 6'10 Center with a 7'4 wingspan

Great team specific list, but show some photo examples to help the devs.

Re: NBA 2K12 - Let's talk about NBA Authenticity/Artistic Improvements

Andrew Bogut's face or hair needs to be redone too.

If they can ever get the white guy's hair down, that'd be great lol. I know Top Spin has flowing hair in their game, granted it's a 1 on 1 game versus 5 on 5, but perhaps they can still get it done in 2k.

Arm length definitely isn't in the game and it's part of the reason why some players are still in the NBA.

Players that come to mind that this would help: George Hill, Ben Wallace, Elton Brand, Rodrigue Beaubois, Dirk (It's part of the reason his shot is so unstoppable), rookie Bismack Byongo, and I know there are plenty others.

In American Airlines Arena, a camera shot is shown of the crowd in the 100's level and there is ALWAYS a section that is blank. Behind both baskets.

Guys - arm length isn't really in the scope of this thread. Let's leave that one for the wishlist.

I'm talking about more specifics like the accessories and where they should go, court specifics, etc.

Go back and look at last year's thread for a reference. Will be editing the first post again this year.
