EA, Fix The Player Models! (Video)

Re: EA, Fix The Player Models! (Video)

[QUOTE=13;2045121195]Well your opinion and reality seem to be two completely different things at this point.[/QI

I am not the only person that thinks this way. Just read through forums and you will see people complaining about the same thing I am.

Player models look great IMO. NBA players are tall not big and bulky like NFL. As a former college player and son of one, i've seen these guys. Yes, they weigh a lot so you may think they're big, but they're lean.

For years, people have said the player models in the other game need to be toned down. Well it's finally happening and now people are complaining.

I prefer Live's player models over 2k's. That could change this year, I've not seen a lot of still's of 2k yet, but hopefully they've toned them down. I've always used a thin body mod on 2kPC, and glad that Live has a better resemblance (in my eyes) than other games.

Re: EA, Fix The Player Models! (Video)

That also is the main reason why Live's court spacing has always been better IMO. All this talk makes me sad EA took the servers down. I guess I can always play the CPU.

I was playing the elite 11 demo earlier and the player models were not that bad actually, the skin complexion of players were atrocious!

Re: EA, Fix The Player Models! (Video)

I think the only thing that maybe needs to changed for adjusted would be the legs on the player models. Some of them are a little off, but for the most part they're spot on.

Re: EA, Fix The Player Models! (Video)

It's not even about them being skinny, it's about all the players bodies looking exactly the same.

I agree 100% with you on this. It's so funny how guys are trying so hard to convince themselves that nothing is wrong with these player models when it clearly is. It's the same old EA stuff just a different year. . .

Honestly. . . I don't know what kind of body language DeAndre Jordan is displaying here but it's not right. . . it's not right at all and that alone should be cause for concern. Player models look so outdated if not antique

I don't need any convincing at all. The size of the players in regards to the space on the court is perfect.

I'm glad I was able to get a good discussion going. That's what this forum needs!

I like Live's player models. Look at it this way, in 2K, if you're over 195 lbs, you look like you have diabetes and only get out of the house once a year. 2K needs to fix their models before EA, 2K makes Lebron looks fat, lol. Only thing I don't like with EA's models is the 'hunchback.'

Re: EA, Fix The Player Models! (Video)

What do you mean hunchback?

THANK YOU! IMO, this was the biggest problem in Elite 11 and Live 13 trailers. During actual gameplay, you couldn't tell the difference between Joakim Noah and Lebron James because their skin color looked exactly the same, but in reality Joakim is lighter skinned than James

Re: EA, Fix The Player Models! (Video)

camera adds 10lbs right? lol. If you've seen Lebron in person he's not thin, not skinny... dude is built out of stone. He's at least 260 lbs. Yes he's also 6'8 but the only people he might look thin compared with are other NBA players who are 6'8+. Its hard to really compare with the woman in the picture but if you replaced Durant (who is thin and long) with an average joe, Lebron wouldn't look skinny. Dwayne Wade is the size of an NFL tight end, he's not skinny. These guys are jacked and it's hard people to realize how big they are because we always see them around other NBA players. D-Wade on an NBA court looks like one of the smaller guys, when I had the chance to meet him and stand next to him (i'm 6'3, 240), we were close in height but he looked thicker (neck, arms, back) than me because he's jacked and I don't work out for a living like he does.

Re: EA, Fix The Player Models! (Video)

I'm going to disagree just a little Suave4. I'm 6'3" 260 and my cousin Vernon Macklin who played for the Pistions is 6'10" 230, big dude. Compared to me, he looked like Durant and I looked like NFL LB. When you're that tall and weigh that much you're not wide, you're more proportional.

Ill agree with in terms of Wade and Lebron looking like brick **** houses, but not every player looks like them. Just look at the teams in Finals. Ginolbi, Duncan, Bush... those are thin guys and that's what most of the league looks like. Not all players are built like Wade and LJ.

Dwyane Wade weighs 215lbs. You may need your eyes checked. Or a new scale. He's a decently built guy for an NBA player though.
