Harden looks neither body scanned or mo-capped from what I'm seeing in this short trailer. Hopefully this is a much older build.

It has to be an older build with Towns having a created player face and the clippers jerseys not being updated.

not seeing scanned legs at all in these clips.

The game looks good, the animations look good, and the story looks good...

I love the game so I want perfection but I'm gonna try and not nitpick until we get more than 5 seconds of gameplay lol

Re: NBA 2K16 Digital Short - James Harden: Believe

I already pointed out it's an older build as the rookies are created players and the Clippers still have the old uniforms on. It's more than likely the build before Summer League but after free agency quieted down (Like July 7-10). It's essentially the same game without the more up to date things they'll add in later like rookie scans, uniform updates, code, etc. Ronnie said that all 3 cover players came in within the last weeks of July so maybe they updated him again from the version in this trailer.

Didn't even realize that... So there's still hope

You really expect to notice scanned legs in these half a second clips? lol. Also try to remember these clips are definitely a older build as stated above (most clips are made weeks in advance).

Anyways let's take a look:
Scanned or not, they have some varying leg sizes (this is to be expected since not everyone has or will be rescanned).


Look at Harden's calf compared to Rubio and then Wiggins compared to Ariza.

(Btw I pray to god they can or have rescanned Dwight. I really want them to get his leg size as he has twigs even though he's really big)

So what's the story on the socks, are they like a new NBA official team color sock or something?? Kind of reminds of something we would see in an all star game, or college basketball.

Yes, Stance is the new sock provider for the NBA and one of the biggest things is they have team specific socks that can match the uniforms. The Hawks are actually the first team to truly incorporate socks into their uniforms:

and here's the top-to-bottom look officially put forth by the Hawks, who are trumpeting the fact that "socks, shoes and laces were built as part of the overall uniform kit" as a brand new feature in the uni game:

Wow, thanks for the knowledge this is a good look for the league, glad 2k has it in the game already.

NBA has a new apparel deal with Stance to provide the official socks of the league starting this season.

As I understand it, players will have the choice to wear the team sock or some of the other more colorful socks from Stance.

Re: NBA 2K16 Digital Short - James Harden: Believe

I'm kinda worried because in the last 2 teasers we saw Steph swishing a 3 with a hand in his face and Harden hitting a 25 foot fadeaway.

Its basically what they both do in real life though, and its highlights so they have to make it look good, now if this happens all the time in the full game then yea its cause for concern.

Re: NBA 2K16 Digital Short - James Harden: Believe

Cool "story" to the video, but this is just another hype vid for casual fans. I am curious if this thread will turn into another one debating the ethics of 2ks marketing plan or not lol the last one was entertaining, I'll give those posters that.

The game will be out in 47 days (the official release date) so people just need to be patient for the real info to get here. Sadly, it may not really start in earnest for another couple of weeks, but once it starts arriving, should be fast and furious.

These teasers are highlight reels. All you're gonna see is standout plays.
