Same even in the USA trailer he didn't look super big in the dunking scene








Maybe just a tad bigger on the game to real life but not super drastic tho still could use some work tho

Yeah I give 2k the benefit of the doubt on a lot of things but not this.

From my experience too many players are huge, more than what they need to be.

Harrison Barnes has a neck like a dinosaur

Larry Bird is stocky with short arms

Paul George looks like he's been hanging with the Olympic rowing team, dudes traps are sticking up and his back is all huge.

..but its little difference?

I need to see more because this isn't encouraging from how its been.

Showing me a half a player model spruced up pic doesn't either

If they plan on screen shotting us to death then man...................



Anyway I want to know if we can edit body types, how much ability to we have to edit the player models. Is it the same old edit and CAP feature?

This is the kind of thing that's important in the long run because it would negate what our different eyes see.

I just dont wanna look at another year of Dwight Howard with a Wide Box frame and fat legs with ankles 1 inch long. It looks terrible.

How can you defend that?
Because it's one screenshot, and I saw other moving videos where Paul George didn't look that big. Therefore, it's not a big deal to me.

I posted from the video where he did look bigger.

It's not just one screenshot.

This isn't the first time George has come into discussion.

Again, I'm a big advocate of improving the player models

I just showed you how he's bigger than last years model.

What reason exactly have they given you to believe its better?

..and I dont mean like his face looks better, im talking about the overall model?

I think the majority of body type issues stem from jerseys being too baggy/not modeled correctly.

Spoiler


This pic has been posted multiple times and you can see how formfitting the USA jersey is to the body. 2K jerseys hover about an inch off of everybody. It makes them look a lot more swole than they actually are.

My take on the body type is that it's fine sizewise. (EDIT: It actually looks kinda like his neck is a bit too short, but that could be the jersey too) The pic comparison isn't really fair since it isn't even comparing the same side of his body. The USA pic has him wearing an arm sleeve which compresses some of the fat on the bicep. However, the definition needs work, as seen in these photos from huds:

Spoiler


I do like the lighting though. That skintone is near perfection.

I don't understand the complexities in changing the player models, but people aren't asking for everyone to be 100% accurate, we just want the average player model looking much more like a basketball player.

I'm sure a lot of players share the same model with tats and faces layered over. Hopefully they can figure out a way to give us thinner models before it ships

Oh yea, and props to 2k on that lighting and skin texture. Looks much more photorealistic, like it was in 2k14. Let's just try to nail those player models.

Yeah, he's such a mini-tank.

I agree wholeheartedly about the jerseys being an issue.

This comparison pic of LBJ from another thread shows that:



Poor jersey fit & lack of muscle definition leads to the illusion that player's are bulkier than they should be. But there's also something going on with the midsection of 2K player models. Everyone is just...wide - only differences are height & maybe shoulder width. No one is "a string bean" as the old heads would say.

And since some people believe MLB The Show 16 is an example of the "correct" way...

I'll get past it in-game but the screenshot is not appealing.. it's not any type or bait that gets me excited for 17

Looks pretty accurate too me.......

We realize LeBron IS built like a damn tank right? If you want a player to show the problems with 2Ks body types and looking like superheroes, LeBron isn't exactly the guy because he's like the one dude they nail because he's built like a damn superhero.

Again slightly thicker...far game breaking, and a far cry from what it used to look like.

Perhaps some people think the "other" game did it better?

THIS . 100 percent. Its time to get body types right and varied
