Official NBA2K17 Player body types correction

[WISports]

I'm sorry, but it's hard to stay constructive when it comes to this subject.

The art guys all know (or should) what each player looks like. If they don't, a 5 second Google search can give you all the reference pics you need.

At what point during their development did they look at guys like Giannis and think "yeah, that looks good enough". It really is unacceptable. ESPECIALLY when guys looked better LAST year.

Same can be said for skin tones and uniform and court colors. They have all the info they need at their fingertips.

Totally kills the immersion.

In a video I just watched of NBA 2k17 gameplay I noticed Corey Brewer looked bulky when he should be skinny I barely recognized him and don't forget when you fix him he has the skinniest legs in the league.

It'd be acceptable if some really skinny rookies came in with that body type, as some of these cats ARE basically High School players, but 2 problems with that are:

And that's kind of what driving me bananas. This build was literally designed for Highschool players (i.e. teenagers) and now it's being put on every other professional player. Did someone accidentally delete body type 3 from 2K's files? Lol

Side note.. what body does Chris Paul have? It looks unique.. but completely off for him ironically lol

I don't think it is unique to just him since I think Rajon Rondo has it as well.

We'll see if they do anything about it this year (through a patch), but they definitely need to add more body types into the game. At the very least 5 to 8 more just for variety sake.

I was thinking about that too, it does look different, unfortunately it's not Chris Paul at all, but it would sure look good on other guys.

I was thinking it was body type 2, but I haven't gotten a good look at DWade or Boogie yet to compare.

I wonder if any 2k art devs look through these post?
