LEGENDS Thread - NBA 2K18 & beyond: (Accessories, jerseys, sig styles etc)

I'm genuinely happy for you guys that are finding glimmers of hope, I hope you enjoy the game, sincerely.

I think it's evident now, for me, that outside of the honourable mention of the obvious (2k11 & 12) 2k16 is my GOAT - I put it back in my PS4 last night and went from frowning & frustrated to being as happy as a kid in a sweet shop. I played as much 2k18 as I could yesterday and I just couldn't get on board with it. To many negatives for me, personally.

Imagine if CPU Jordan actually did it, it would have been amazing.

CPU Jordan can do this in the game however. Im the Lakers. All-Star difficulty.

Aaron McKie needs an update.

Left side: 2k version
Right side: How it should be



He is bald and lacking his beard since the addition of the 00-01 Sixers team.
Same on the new Alltime-Sixers.

Please 2k do some magic here

I think there's quite a few players I can make that would satisfy my own standards. However, I'm really struggling with Tayshaun Prince because the game doesn't even seem to have a skin tone possibility in Create-a-Player that's close to his. This is about as close as I can get, which obviously appears completely out of place during gameplay, even when zoomed out:



I was thinking of finding another player from an All-Time team that I could re-brand as Prince. I was hoping Kerry Kittles was on the All-Time Nets because they both seem sufficiently odd looking but he's only on the 2002 team (which I don't want to break up). Any ideas of who might be a good match, skin tone included?

Otherwise, I guess I'll be holding out for a Steve Nash scenario, where 2K maybe adds Prince back in with an early roster update.

Edit: I admit I'm a little perplexed as to why there's not even a skin tone option. I guess I somewhat understand the idea behind trying to form realistic-looking random players or something, but is locked-in skin tone necessary for that? I'd have been alright with a created Prince like the one above if I could just lighten him up.

Kobe needs to be fixed on the 04/05 team he had hair. They are using the bald 2k16 Kobe scan

Apparently CAP will be updated in an upcoming patch. So hopefully skin tone can be adjusted. Some guys like Prince and more notably, Barkley, are IMPOSSIBLE to replicate in the current system. I've resorted to using one of the Terry Cummings as Barkley because he resembles him in the game

I think I agree......2k16 is by far the best next gen 2k
