This seems like something that shouldn't be worried about but when KD does a dunk like this every time you play with him instead of having an animation closer to what he actually does in real games, dunk or otherwise, it begins to feel like I'm playing with another player entirely, and that's not the purpose of a simulation sports game. There's no reason Bogut doesn't jump to help when he's playing defense on Kendrick Perkins, who's at the three point line for some reason, and no way Iggy jumps underneath KD if he gets beat, especially against KD who no one really has the length and athleticism to compete with once he gets his shoulders past them. These are just comments from a basketball player and a big NBA fan who pays attention to players habits. Nice video though, like the new leg sleeves, logos on the socks, warmups on bench players, fatheads, maskots, etc. Overall there should just be better help D, Iggy shouldn't be dark skinnned and 2k has to pay attention to detail and start to really give players the signature quirks and tendencies to match their real life counterparts.

Spot on. Couldn't have said it better myself. They've made some nice steps when trying to individualize the players, now it's time for some LEAPS.

why did they downgrade the graphics they should of just kept 2k14 graphics

Iggy has head tracking and actually moved his feet on defense

Andre Iguodala looks so bad, too dark, and his accessories are beyond incorrect, blue leg sleeves, and he doesn't have a yellow arm sleeve on (although no one probably cares about that stuff), and his shoes are way off too, not even the same blue as the warriors uniform.

But it does look like they give Iguodala a hair cut this year, which points towards 2k updating some
players hair.





For comparison, i don't believe you can wear yellow accessories on the road because the warriors team color 2 is black.

The graphics aren't downgraded, those are the exact same graphics from 2K14. It's just that Durant's facial expression makes him look very awkward.

The lighting seems to be a lot darker as well

From what it looks like, the graphics are identical to NBA 2K14. Iggy looked exactly like that last year; same skin tone, same hair, same shoes, same blue accessories. The only difference is that he had knee sleeves last year, now they're full leg sleeves.

This was a very unimpressive first trailer, to be honest. But it was a small sample size, so I won't worry about it too much. And this is definitely an alpha build, so hopefully there is a lot of polishing yet to be done (proper skin tones, proper body types, shoes, accessories, haircuts, etc.).
