    NBA 2K14 - Custom Wristbands?



    It looks like we will have customizable wristbands in NBA 2K14, for those of you interested in that sort of thing. You can see "I Promise" on LeBron's wristband in a recently released screenshot.

    Really custom wristbands?

    I already know what some of the responses are going to be to this news.
    "______ is effed up and needs improvement, and 2k spent time and resources on custom wristbands"
    Sometimes you gotta' stand by your failures to recognize your success.

      Nice addition, the more customization the better.

      But it's amazing that it's easier to identify LBJ's wristband than his...face.

            You'll have to put it on a player with real thick wrists to fit in the band. Maybe there is a way to create Popeye.

              Eh, cool I guess. Nothing too exciting tho since you're not gonna be able to read them anyways during gameplay.

              More concerned with the lack of wingspan on the players tho.

                Pretty cool feature really. I like little additions like this.
                NCAA: Kentucky Wildcats
                MLB: Atlanta Braves
                NBA: San Antonio Spurs

                  Haha. Yeah, in real life the saying goes around the entire band

                    Custom Colors for Accessories? I honestly hate seeing Melo wearing those UGLY light blue Sleeves. I want my game to look as best as possible, stackable accessories like D Rose, lower shorts, lower Hex Pads, Adidas Braces and shoes, etc.

                    I really don't mind Custom Messages, but I that's cool.

                        Hopefully they improved the CAP mode as well..We have not been able to put goggles on a player since 2k4!!
                        EA and 2k have the unfortunate task of trying to balance on a tightrope of fun and sim while trying not to fall 10,000 feet to their death. Instead of a safety net waiting down below there will just be angry customers quick to move out of the way and talk of their failure.

                          So sad that the PS2 had that until its end in 2K12.

                              adding wristbands you won't be able to read during gameplay vs adding new tattoos or hairstyles or fixing anything else just sounds silly. wristbands should be that thing you find that's added, not a special 'release note'. i'm all for customization but there's a lot needed before wristbands with words.
