That s how the 2k12 face graphics disappointed me..

The face graphic Nowadays NBA players are great, but NOT the classic teams`..

Some non-featured players, like John Starks, S Kemp, Del Negro, their faces are so BAD that s quite unacceptable. They also got NO Real Photo Potraits, only the featured super-stars have...

It s obvious that 2K didn`t put much effort on the classic teams :!: . I dont know why they fail to notice & fix the above problems :!: :!:

Counting on our great modders seems to be the only HOPE to fix this problem, they can make this 2k12 truely epic! :applaud:

Getting the licensing for all the players, accurate plays for the teams, accurate uniforms and courts.....yep, lazy.

What 2K failed to do with the classic teams is a crime against humanity.

As benji noted when some of the previews came out, the lack of high resolution photos of older players is a factor here too.

+1 on this. Having gone through the experience of trying to create CF's for the 92 mod, I know that the hardest thing to do is to find reference images of the players. 2k did an amazing job with this though, they probably had access to the NBA's stash of photo's + video. As to the portraits of the players, you have to take note that the portrait has a limited amount of room for players and the top priority is the current stars of the NBA (as well as the rookies not featured yet that have their own portrait as well). The game is called "NBA 2k12" not NBA's greatest. You basically have two games in one. Plus, portraits are not really that important as opposed to the player faces themselves, at least we don't have the grey default picture used in 2k10.
