Re: NBA 2K13 Video - Developer Insight #6: Shoes

To be honest with you, he left off all of the shoes already in the game... that's going to save many of us alot of work because they have a ton of Nike's from long ago, classics and things we've all wanted to see in the game

Penny's
The Glove's
Air Raid's
Barkley's
Foamposites
Air Flight's
Sheed's Air Force 1's

and so much more... I can't believe it!

Re: NBA 2K13 Video - Developer Insight #6: Shoes

The one thing I worry about is the selection of the materials and pieces you're given to re-create(which is what I want this feature to be used for more than anything) shoes. From what we saw in the insight, it looks like it's limited to pieces of shoes that are already available in-game, and that makes me feel like this feature goes a short distance in what I hoped from it. I have little to no desire in creating a generic, made-up shoe. Mostly because you're going to be limited to what they offer in pieces from other shoes. And that's just not unique, to me. I was hoping for a more Forza Motorsport styled creator for shoes.

The selection of shoes hasn't really been terribly barren, it's just been dated with each passing season, and very inaccurate due to what some of us assume are licensing issues.

The feature should be great in creating colorways and such, though, for existing kicks. Excited about that.

Oh man, oh man, oh man!!

I've seen in the video that, with all the available colors for each layer in the shoe creator, there's also the possibility of primary color and secondary color. Does that mean that we can create shoes that can switch their colors automatically for home and away games????

That's too good to be true...please, can somebody from 2K put some light on this?

Re: NBA 2K13 Video - Developer Insight #6: Shoes

I still don't know until we see if you can add home and away

Unless they changed something Im going to assume its just like Nike ID, which is also still in the game as well

There are a ton of choices either way

Re: NBA 2K13 Video - Developer Insight #6: Shoes

I mean if you can make it primary and secondary colors, not sure why it wouldn't be adjusted for home and away.

Re: NBA 2K13 Video - Developer Insight #6: Shoes

I must say I walked away from that video impressed. It looked great and the feature seems like it'll be a blast. Tuesday can not get here fast enough man.

I will say this though. With all this focus they say they put into shoes this year, I had better not see this or I'm gonna be highly upset.

11's need to be on point this year.

It was the same way last year though

I don't think it has much to do with colors as it does what making home/away accessories without screwing up the game programming... seems like there may be an issue with that, but hey what do I know

What other function could have primary and secondary color then? I mean, if there's a whole color palette available, to me that's the only reason for it to be there.

EDIT: I don't remember that Nike iD had the primary and secondary color feature...

Just my two cents on this, the primary/secondary could be the color per "piece" of the shoe, with the primary being part of it, and the secondary being accent colors. For example if you had a patent leather side patch, it's primary color could be black and the secondary color could be the stitching around the edges.

I wasn't saying Nike ID had primary and secondary, I was saying you built one colored shoe in it and that was it.. no home and away unless you built another one which you could only wear one at a time

The only options they gave us was assigning shoes in the edit player mode.. this feature here is a total different thing.

It may give you the H/A option now, but im not optimistic til I see it.. that's what I was getting at

The point is that it's called primary and secondary TEAM colors.

Re: NBA 2K13 Video - Developer Insight #6: Shoes

Obviously there is an interest if they spent time on this to go this far in depth

Michael Jordan has been retired since 1998 and still sell shoes well over $100

Its obvious that you are either being a troll or you are oblivious to the world around you.

I agree with him. Not as ignorantly as him but I agree. I don't see anything wrong with a shoe insight but if there are more important insights they probably should get released before shoes. Maybe there are no more insights. It was suppose to be though.
