Wondering if this video was pre lighting adjustments

I think it's mostly post. The sweat and shine looks more pronounced and not like the subdued gummy look of 2K15.


At least it's good enough that when they showed Curry's release with the wrist bounce, I freaked out. Then I mildly panicked thinking that I was just watching recorded footage and this was all a dream I'd wake up from-- because the lighting combined with the animation was so convincing from that angle.


Weirdly, I've never been more relieved to see rendering and lighting flaws in my life.

All the advancements sound great! "Most realistic sports gaming experience ever made" But I'll believe it when I play it.

Rewriting post game from ground up, introducing dynamic player movement based on situation, physics based player contact and foot planting... A lot of points where bugs and glitches and just poor execution could be introduced.

But it sure does sound great.

Saw that..

Even the "wow" looked great though, haha

Has he ever done it like that? I only remember that one game where he did it...

Curry doesn't get many 4-point play calls, so that one time stands out in my mind. As far as I'm concerned the mouthed count is signature.


Otherwise he's more liable to just suck on his mouth guard if he's not.


I just checked and that's what he does.

So the first glimpse we get from the Heat is Wade being blocked by Varejao. We all know what happened when Varejao tried to block Wade.

I'm not even a Heat fan, and this made me chuckle. :wink:

Concerning rookie scans....I think they are already in the disc and just needs a roster update so that they will be in game. They did this in past 2k games for those that remember....

Now this is what I've been waiting for !! Physics , foot planting , blocking all sounds dope. They've done a really great job with facial expressions and celebrations . Brings so much life to the game .

Almost everything I wanted to se them add to the game. Hopefully there will be no major bugs or flaws. They've added a lot to the game this year.

Wow! All this looks and sounds amazing! I've wanted this type of stuff for years with players having ability to read defenses and screen knowing whether to curl, or flare, and now coaches will adjust game plans from game to game? Wow! And super excited post game got redone completely! The crowds looked incredible as well! Super pumped! This 2k dev team has got to be the best in the biz!!!

Slightly OT, but just an observation: notice how 2K is managing all these reveals:

They put out video accompanied by an in depth blog explanation and deep dive.

I actually think that's a good thing, and preferable to random video gameplay leaks where we get imperfect smartphone video without context, leaving us with a ton of questions and misconceptions that await answers.
