Re: NBA 2K15 body types that should be updated (request here)

I'm not sure how many of you guys go to actual NBA games but if you have then you would understand why it's better for these guys to look skinnier, rather than "buff".. I was happy 2k went with skinnier frames for the next gen games. But their still needs to be some fixes.. Honestly if we could just change how defined or soft a players muscles looked, mainly just arms, that would go a very very long way in realism and diversification between players.

For example, have Marc Gasol and Nikola Pekovic with the same size arms/body frame, but have a setting to where you could adjust the muscle tone.. Have Pekovic turned up pretty high, and Gasol's down really low.

I think Russell Westbrook arms were too skinny in 2k14, he seemed to be on point outside of that. Maybe he needs to be bulkier idk

Jeremy Lin should be skinnier. They never got CP3 correct last year along with Lin and Parsons. Parsons look like Asik out there lol. This year, all the players seem to have gone through a long period of starvation. But hey, if being skinny make the players run smoother and user friendly control, i am all for it.

Leg Size
Arm size
Arm definition

If we had that, every player could look so much more like themselves and then we could have special body types like having a big upper body with chicken legs, etc.
This, this, and this. I couldn't agree more with you.

The Chris Bosh's arms (skinny, short dinosaur arms) and the Phil Jackson's shoulders (pointy, coat-hanger shoulders) have got to go.

As you said, more variables for body types is absolutely essential for the game to be more realistic graphically. I want to be able to recognize players without having to look at their faces closely. Right now, we just don't have that.

I never noticed how wide Anthony Davis's shoulders were. The problem with 2K's AD is that I think his head is a bit big for his body....kinda like how Bosh was last year....thats why he doesn't look all that tall and lanky...
