Well maybe they have a puck size option this year. Small, Normal, and Mothers Meatloaf

Re: NHL 2K10 Hi Res Screenshot (Lecavalier)

Are you lot on crack , of course it will be noticeable if the puck is big.

Hopefully its the same size as 2k9.

i care, and so do a lot of people. Glad to see you dont personally care, but there are plenty that do. You're logic is extremely flawed, and you know what, i think 2k buys what you're shovelling most of the time with the same logic.

The game will play good, so who cares if the pucks are the size of my mother's meatloaf.

More and more of the same...

The puck is incrementally bigger then it should be, guys. It's not astronomically larger to where it will affect the gameplay at all. That's what I'm trying to say. But now this is 3 posters who have twisted it and exaggerated the size (frisbee, meatloaf... really?) of the puck.

My logic is flawed because God forbid the puck be slightly bigger then it should be (if it even is, given the angles of the shots). I can't believe we're really going over something so minute.

I'd love for the puck to be 1 inch thick and 3 inches in diameter, but if it's 1.2 inches thick and 3.1 inches in diameter, I will live and so will the rest of you.

Come on guys...

...because you typed, "Who cares how big the puck is?" Logically, there's a point where it absolutely makes sense to start caring. I suggested that point would be when the puck approaches the size of a frisbee. Maybe you wouldn't care until the puck reached breadbox dimensions, I don't know. I asked you when it is we should all start caring, but you haven't answered that question yet. And until you do, it certainly looks like your logic with this whole argument is flawed, yes.

Actually, the puck in those screens looks to be a good 33% larger than in real life, so more like 4.5 inches wide and 1.5 inches thick. Bigger than a pancake but smaller than a dinner plate in other words.

Re: NHL 2K10 Hi Res Screenshot (Lecavalier)

LOL, great post. These things would never be noticed during gameplay.

LOL, great post and I agre... Er, wait a minute. The oversized goalie masks are entirely noticable during gameplay. Bah, you almost had me agreeing with you even though you're completely wrong!

Re: NHL 2K10 Hi Res Screenshot (Lecavalier)

You can only see the first two rows, but I don't see any team sweaters in the crowd. Kind of annoying.

Everything else, like the last screen, looks much nicer in high res.

Come on guys...

your logic is flawed because your reasoning for the puck not being an issue is just because you personally dont care. That doen't make it any less or any more of an issue to others.

Heck, maybe some people would like to play bobblehead hockey as long as it plays a decent game. I personally would not want to however and you win nothing with the "i dont care so you shouldn't either" mentality.

whats up next, over the top fog in the ice? Oh wait...

Well, let's face it. None of these things are "issues". lol

Re: NHL 2K10 Hi Res Screenshot (Lecavalier)

Drugs are bad! Also, it is cool for me. I have a lot of love for Kings fans. Someone needs too, since their team doesn't Any ways I want a vid now. One showing Joe passing to Marleau and making a wicked goal and then a celebration of a five man hug! Then the crowd going nuts! That is what I want to see.

Re: NHL 2K10 Hi Res Screenshot (Lecavalier)

This game has a lot of potential. I hope 2K can regain some respect this year by making a game that can be viewed as a serious contender to EA's excellent NHL game.

I asked you when it is we should all start caring, but you haven't answered that question yet. And until you do, it certainly looks like your logic with this whole argument is flawed, yes.

I've already said that if it doesn't affect gameplay, it really shouldn't matter. Obviously, they shouldn't TRY to get things wrong and they should try to make things as accurate as possible, but if the puck is slightly bigger then regulation size, we'll all live.

And once again, you exaggerate the size of the puck. If it was anywhere close to the size of a frisbee or breadbox, yes, it would raise some red flags. As it stands, it's nowhere close to that size so it would be great to avoid those comparisons because they're just flat out stupid. If you think the puck is as big as these various objects that have been described so far in this thread, then I'm sorry but you're just an idiot because it's nowhere close. That's all there is left to say because no one in their right mind would say that puck is the size of a dinner plate, meatloaf, breadbox, or frisbee. I'll leave out pancake because some people make huge pancakes, others make small ones. Personally, I like the smaller ones.

Actually, the puck in those screens looks to be a good 33% larger than in real life, so more like 4.5 inches wide and 1.5 inches thick. Bigger than a pancake but smaller than a dinner plate in other words.

So you're saying the puck is 33% bigger then it should be judging by a screen where you can't even see the full puck and there's a angle to the shot?

That's what I'm trying to get it. We can't tell from the screens because we don't have anything to compare it to. That's why I said I wish they'd have an overhead view of the puck in the middle of a faceoff dot. That way we would be able to compare it in relation to something else (scale). Right now, it's all speculation because we don't know for sure. But somehow you can get exact measurements from these screenshots...

This is why I've said I don't care. People are saying it's too big but they haven't even seen it in comparison to anything that would actually help you determine the size of the puck. You can say it looks big on the stick, but you can't know for sure because the scale of the stick isn't a proper measuring scale to determine the size of the puck.

your logic is flawed because your reasoning for the puck not being an issue is just because you personally dont care. That doen't make it any less or any more of an issue to others.

Heck, maybe some people would like to play bobblehead hockey as long as it plays a decent game. I personally would not want to however and you win nothing with the "i dont care so you shouldn't either" mentality.

I don't care that it's slightly bigger then it should be. In the grand scheme of things, if they don't get around to making it perfectly sized, I won't care. I'd rather have them spend time on things that actually really matter instead of something you won't notice during gameplay. Like I said before, with the camera angles we use when we actually play, you won't notice the 1 inch difference of the size of the puck. So yeah, I guess I have a "I don't care mentality" when it relates to things that really don't matter. But I guess I should care about things so petty or else I don't care about anything.

But keep going with the exaggerated comments. Now we're on to bobblehead hockey? I don't get how a small size difference that's barely noticeable (if it's even true, which we can't say with 100% accuracy from the screenshots we've been provided) somehow gets to bobblehead hockey. You guys are making all kinds of exaggerated statements to support your arguments but it has no relation to what I'm trying to say.

You should stop trying to twist things by making it sound like you didn't say what you said. You said, "Who cares what the puck size is?" That's what got all this started. The puck in 2K looks bigger than in real life. That's it. That's all. And people do care about these things. And because they care, they discuss these things on discussion forums like this one. Now accept it and move on.

once again. Great that you don't care. It doesn't make it less of an issue to others. Also, it obviously is something others do care about since plenty of people have noticed it. It's not "barely noticeable" . You obviously have a different take on it. Great, now move on and get over it. Everyone is allowed to voice their opinion.

In the screenshots, the puck is significantly bigger than it should be in my opinion. That's pretty equated to anything else being significantly bigger than it should, be it head, stick, arms, whatever.

I think it looks very ********. Great that you don't. The only fact of the entire thing is that 2k drops the ball again as usual by not providing enough media to put something like this to rest. Heck, the game is less than 2 months away and we get our first look at stuff NOW?

2k = significant fail, yet again..

Alright, alright, I'm done. As usual, it boils down to my opinion versus your opinion. But I'm allowed to express mine just as you are allowed to express yours.

Okay, that's just ridiculous.
