    2K16 - shoes, bugs and other stuff

    Sup guys,

    First of all let me tell you that I've played 3 games and the game plays AWESOME! it's incredible the upgrade from last year, I'm gonna enjoy this game a lot!.

    BUT, as a sneakerhead I've been taking a look at shoes and all that stuff and right now I have a feeling of disppointment in this field, this is why:

    1 - When I saw we finally had home and away shoes I thought it was great news, but seeing how it works it's kind of useless for roster editors if you want to share ur roster.

    That option lets you choose the shoe model with its preset colors for home and away (basically what we had last year) and the other option we have to "customize" the shoe is an option called "colorway" which basically is useless: just gives 1 or 2 shoe variations with preset colors that almost nobody will use.

    Basically, if you want to share you roster home and away shoe feature is useless because created shoes can't be uploaded with the rest of the roster.

    2 - We have new scanned shoes that really look incredible, but it's just the shoes they added this year, almost all the rest (some old jordans were scanned too) keep looking like kleenex boxes.

    3 - There's a bug with Hyperdunks 2015 and LeBrons, even being in the game don't appear in the shoe selection menu, so basically, can't be selected.

    Don't know if this happens with other models too

    4 - Full leg accessories have a bug, everytime you select one of those socks disappear

    5 - It's been this way since last year and still not fixed: ankle wrap should go UNDER the sock, not above.

    6 - They added mouthpieces but don't let you choose it as an accessory. It would be a good option sice a lot of players wear them

    7 - No headband option for real players yet

    8 - Shoe creator is exactly the same

    When I saw scanned and home and away shoes I thought that maybe this was finally the year they would show some love for sneakerheads, but now I have the sensation I have every year these days: half done work (JUST IN THIS FIELD OF THE GAME).

    Devs capture all the players they can to recreate EVERYBODY's moves and faces, Beds does and amazing job recreating EVERYBODY's ratings and tendencies, and even getting every player on a roster in the game... If there's a shoe department their aim should be trying get everybody's shoes present in the game, so after all these years is a shame that they haven't got it or, at least, being even close.

    It could have been as easy as using that useless new feature in the edit player menu called 'colorways', and, after selecting the shoe, being able to edit its colors layer by layer as if you were in the shoe editor; that would be all, this way we would be able to recreate every player of the game shoes at home and away, and would be able to share them with the rest of the community since it would be part of the roster.

    I guess we'll have to keep waiting...

      Hoping for a shoe creator revamp next year for new custom patterns and such. I'm not as disappointed as you, but I do agree with your points greatly

        For the love of GOD can they ATLEAST get the Jordan colorways right on his feet! It's a huuuuuge disappointment with these fake red and black colorways.. Also take black socks off of any team under 1996

              Very disappointed in this news sean, but I still have a feeling that you and rest of simworld guys will give us the most authentic roster we've seen!

                Yes, they show up there, but when you upload a roster with players equiped with edited shoes they will reset to the default model, so basically it's useless for roster editors.

                Thanks for the confidence man, but sadly all we can do is just select the model, we can't do any edit with colors.

                  So much of this stuff feels like a group or individual was working on it, and someone walked in and told them to stop what they were working on and turn it in. So incomplete.

                    They don't care about this stuff and I wish they did. Great basketball game tho.

                      Couldn't have said it better! Good ideas but sadly really bad implemented. If the person in charge of this field were a true sneakerhead would never allow this failed implementation. They were so close to get this thing to work.

                      The game looks amazingly beautiful, and seeing players wearing shoes with different color patterns as in real life would be the icing on the cake.

                        I agree with the points you made Sean Barkley, but at the same time I'm honestly pleased that we finally have the option to equip separate home and away sneakers on players this year since I, along with many of you, have been waiting for this feature for so long. Now we have 3 options: we can assign shoes based on model which will give us 2Ks default home and away color way, choose one of the authentic color ways provided , or simply create our own home and away colorways to assign them to players. Although it's definitely unfortunate that we can't share our custom home/away sneakers with the roster file, this is a huge step in the right direction in my opinion. I know I'm going to be putting in a lot of time with the Shoe Creator this year lol

                          I'm pleased with this option too of course, I'm gonna enjoy working on every shoe (or at least til I reach the shoe creator limit). The point is that very few people want to do all that tiring job, but they want to enjoy it too.

                          I wouldn't mind that much If shoes had been accurate as accessories were last year with Beds; but since it's not the case it wouldn't harm giving us the option to do it ourselves.

                            I thought I was doing something wrong or missing something. So I can't add edited shoes to current or retro players in my edited roster, very nice 2k.

                              You can do it. In the edit player menu select the shoe, go to colorway, select the model of the shoe you've created and it should be there.
