All I need to hear now is that HDR is supported for the Xbox One S version and I'll lose my mind.....there was a rumor that Microsoft confirmed it, but I haven't seen the actual article where they did.....fingers crossed

I think everyone is misreading the commentary team thing and also forgetting the leaked footage that confirmed it initially.

The main commentary duo is Harlan and Greg Anthony, we know that for a fact. The surprise came when we saw two videos showing Brent Barry and the other Doris Burke as the third commentator. So we know of four, that means there would still be 7 commentators we don't know of. I'm gonna take a wild guess and say MAYBE Kellog is still in since he has years of lines in the game. That would still leave 6 unknowns.

We know Rick Fox and Sekou Smith were both at 2k, but they were in mocap suits and I'm pretty sure that they wouldn't have done that if they just did commentary (unless 2k made 3d models for them like David Aldridge, but that's highly unlikely). David Aldridge also is known to be in as a sideline reporter, but the question is if he's counted in that 11. Even if he was, that would still leave 3 unknowns after counting Aldridge/Sekou/Fox with Harlan, Anthony, Burke, Barry.

But how ya gonna put that much effort into shoes (that you can barely see while playing), and neglect the bodies so friggin' much??
Next year man. I think the body complaints have SURELY gotten their attention. I think if we continue to constructively push it, 2K18 may end all art complaints forever.....

Man some nice news today. I seriously hunch a Mike Wang blog this weekend aswell. Now is the good time.....

Now they need too add the occasional video game first take and boom commentary is fire lol. A video game Stephen A talking about our my player etc from time to time would make it special. In 2k there's never really a sense of social media talking about our achievements to the extent of comparisons between legends etc. I would enjoy if they talked about my player more. Here we are averaging 40 - 15-15 or som in a season and nobody seems to care.

He showed a bunch of rookies up close in the edit player menu.

And some Cavs and Warriors players too.

Yeah so the dynamic part would be the 3rd commentator and sideline guys thinking deeper. Makes sense - especially from a dev standpoint.

2K has a knack for adding things that fans wouldn't ask for just to go the extra mile. That's amazing - every year.

I know they may not address some things some guys want as a priority, but let's not dwell with so much good stuff today

Crew was ignored for about the same but at least its predecessor was added and is improving, there must be a reason why they are stalling it. Maybe too much focus on improving other things. Hopefully game play.

I know man.....all we can do is keep pushing. They will slowly run out of things to address and their priorities will shift slowly.

All we can do is try to make our voices heard and in the meantime enjoy the rest. I'm SURE it'll eventually be addressed.

So we are getting different commentators for different broadcasts? That's awesome.

Lack of disk space? I mean these are some of the largest games put out every year. Might not have disk space to add unique body types?

And if 2K emulate this successfully - WOW. The immersion level will spike a HEAP on this alone.

Hopefully they have Ros Gold in. She's the Warriors sideline girl and did it for the Olympics too.

P.S. Sorry my english
No they left out Arena Music, Shoes, Presentation Elements, Animations, etc from the last few PC versions. Face Scans etc.

Each year the PC version is shorted on purpose and now with the lack of modding, makes the PC version even more in-attractive as a choice of purchasing.

Man I've not been touching console versions and had NO IDEA of all these short comings haha. Last years optimising debacle was brutal though. And embarrassing.

Will get PS4 aswell this year for sure now.
