One more thing. When playing online can we get an option to set our favorite team so when we play a ranked match our team can already be selected for us instead of always having scroll thru and find it. (Madden has this).

Put some more work into the arenas. As seen in the examples below;

- Crowd next to the player bench

Thankfully, they already added that.
But anyways, the bench in 2K11 and the early 2K12 build look waaaay to spaced out. Notice how players are packed up like sardines in the real life picture above. There are no empty seats between players.

yeah i noticed this awhile back...i think its because the player models are bit too bulky to have that packed look

i want to chime in on the arena sounds as i said earlier in my post that they did a great job in arena specific authenticity but as i type this post and listening to this....

it just sounds sooo much better...i think 2k is lacking the ambience of the PA system..not entirely sure what you call it but it sounds so much like its in an arena..

i would post examples of MSG chants but i cant find any of it online...

I think we're losing focus in the thread IMO. Starting to kinda look like a wishlist thread.

Can Oracle Arena and the Warriors' jerseys PLEASE be fixed? Right now the shades of yellow and blue are so off I can't stand playing as them even though they are my local team. Also most of the players look ridiculously off especially Monta Ellis and David Lee.

This is just like how red always looked pink. Pisses me off that the colors could be so off that it hurts my eyes to look at the floor...

That sounded beautiful and the crowd looked amazing. All of the transitions were so smooth and really help make the arena authentic. Hopefully, 2K can do something like this.

Also, listen during free throws. This should happen in 2K.

Just noticed I said "off" so many times in my post, oops, but that is exactly how I feel about the GSW in 2k11 >

**JerseySuave4** · 06-26-2011, 11:52 AM

going along with what someone said about the team colors, they def need to give us better team color options. We should be able to choose the headband color so you can have Miami wearing white headbands one game like they did in the Finals and black headbands the next game with the red unis. For the shoes you shouldn't be forced to have the same color laces as the nike logo, you should be able to choose each of those seperately. And when you do go into custom colors, the correct team colors should be in there to choose from. If you want to match Boston's green you either have to pick a dull looking dark green or a bright dark green, not the correct green that Boston wears. Same for other teams. And as someone said for GS, get the colors in the game to be right and be sharp so they pop.

please bring back the walking/skipping up court
lets get the TV CYCLE CAMERA VIEWS BACK
2k, its time for hi-res shoes..
no hate but, every player face needs to be redone

**sandman0823** · 06-26-2011, 12:29 PM

I am sure they are going to make some changes but not expecting all of these they game is pretty much completed. They are probably testing it making tweaks as needed. What I would like to see is full customization of shoes, laces and all. I would also like to real life injuris carry over into the association.

**Knicks101** · 06-26-2011, 12:49 PM

they need to have the benches clear out for wen a game winner is hit......the bench go running onto the court

And look at the player on the bench...that's what I'm talking about. That should be imitated, if not improved

I would like the option to choose sock colors again, and I guess in a team builder way, choose whether we want to wear white or colored shoes with away and home uniforms. During most of the regular season, teams like chicago will wear white shoes with white accessories.

Re: NBA 2K12 - Let's Talk About NBA Authenticity, Artistic Improvements

Watching that Live 10 video...it's unacceptable that a game made 2 years ago has THAT much better crowd and bench reactions than 2k11. Plus, as another poster mentioned, the player models in 2k11 are just WAY too bulky. They need to work on the jerseys (which add a lot of bulk to each player as they hover over top of them by a large amount), and also work on conveying thin/lengthy players more...as not every NBA player is built like Dwight Howard. Although you might think they are from playing 2k11.
