NBA 2K17 Screenshots Taken From "The Dream Lives On" Trailer

It's hard for me to say Jordan loook horrible. I can look at the player model and know it's Jordan that alone makes him ok. Could Jordan and bird be better sure. We sound unrealistic asking for a inch added or removed to a guy shoulder or arms.

I get the Jordan complaints....gotta hold the GOAT to a higher standard.

Only thing Ill say is that throwing those 2K14/15 angry face MJ pics up vs a neutral face Jordan in 2K11 is a bit misleading.

Why not a neutral 2K11/2K16 comparison? ...then, I dont know...maybe we can help identify some specifics for the art team. What stands out immediately is the crooked mouth thing the 2K16 version has going on.

Obviously the one on the left is better, but I honestly don't get the huge deal. I think he looks okay.

I actually found it tough to get hold of a neutral pic for 2k16 outside of taking a screen shot myself, but nice find there - it's a better comparison for sure.

I'm still not feeling it though. I think 2k11/12 absolutely nailed it.

I'm personally seeing something wrong with the actual head shape/size. Totally agree with the mouth too, that's pretty skewed.

I will say this though, there was an improvement from 14 - 16 (Current gen) I believe. When I saw the mess the legends were in on the PS4 I completely skipped 2k14.

15 was pretty bad too but I think these threads may have helped tweak Mike for 16, so fingers crossed we can keep on pluggin away at 2k, maybe someone's listening out there.....

It's that he starts to look off when he emotes....

Yeah I think it could use work as well, I want to make that clear..... I just want to make sure we are looking at the root of the problem in the right context since progress has already been made....hopefully we can keep the momenteum.

This is a comparison between 15/16

Not that he looks a lot like it, it's just where my mind darts initially.

I like this post. I'm looking hard and its almost difficult to pin point the issue. It's like a blend of things from features being a little more defined (eyebrows and mo) to the limited texture on the older one maybe accidentally giving it nicer colours (from those angles anyway).

Agree, the crooked mouth thing. But man..... seems more of a collective thing.

But I've said it before, I could probably live it down if he regains some signature stuff. Still possible in 2K17 aswell so fingers crossed.

Edit: If 23 is right it kind of stomps on this post to a degree. Thanks man! Haha....

I got you....the 15/16 comparison pic I posted is a screenshot from the player edit screen, the initial post is a mod, my bad on that.

Point still stands though....just wanted to even the playing field when making the comparison
