It's a pretty big difference so if it's to late for 17 Which I am guessing it is then please fix it for 18 Thanks you guys are the best!

Yeah, I hope now that faces got a big lighting upgrade we can have some people concentrate on the grass and jerseys. I hope to be wowed in the same way. Different teams maybe but whatever.

Not exactly, from the video shown the created still looked different from the real players that have been shown... although they are highly improved from last year's game

I think you may be referring to videos from the previous build.

1) from this comparison, it will still be quite obvious who the CAPs are and who are face scanned.
2) Work. In. Progress. Ramone mentioned skin tones specifically were being worked on still.

Still, much more robust CAP. We will definitely see more variety than previous games where so many generated players looked noticeably the same but with different hair/facial hair.

But I don't buy The Show for the player creator ability, that is well down my list of priorities. I buy for game play and I've said before, the new ball physics alone have sold me on MLB 17.

These are just a few players I pulled from the gamespot video and I ask you (aside from the 1920's black boxer I put last) these guys look like people you could see playing and have a hard time telling that they're CAP's right? Because that's how I see it.

Ramone did say right before looking at these that they weren't done refining the palette for the CAP guys, my guess is that they got the darker skinned guys down so far and are still fixing the lighter skinned guys, because all of the darker skinned CAP's look pretty darn believable to me, even more so with facial hair. The average Joe that they started with before randomizing though looked to have the same skin as the one from 16 so I'm sure that they're working on that part.

Honestly though, what game even has perfect created players? Because I've yet to see them in any sports game personally (then again, I've only played The Show and NBA 2K), I'll take these CAP's over the rest.
