NBA 2K18 Official screenshots

[SIISISI]

where's kuzma tattoo at? lol.

I thought that looked off too. First thing I'm doing is adding R4zoR's tats. Probably couldn't get the rights to them yet? I know I had heard previously they have to get permission from any artist involved in the tats but not sure if that's still the case.

Man,not only Kuzma. In those screenshots are many players without tattoos or updates. If we want tattoos, only modders solution

2k ripped of kuzma from r4zor XDDDD

As an example I believe Carmelo's WB tattoo was one of the problematic ones?

[MadbaLL]

same old boring uniforms for heat and lakers.

twolves' ones are awful.

It doesn't generally have to do with branding, more so than the tattoo artists claiming that they should be compensated for using their artwork within the game. I could be wrong, but I believe that was the central idea with the tattoo issues.

Andrew is right about theses legal issues.

Here's some articles about:

In 2K's case, it was original artwork by tattoo artists. Trademarked logos and whatnot have been an issue though. From memory, CM Punk's Pepsi logo tattoo was absent in a lot of WWE games, or replaced by a lawyer-friendly substitute.

Shaq's face looks better! Chamberlain and Magic were also upgraded.

Jerseys look solid.

Jerseys look solid.

He does looked improved but the jerseys don't look solid. Numbers are wrong and from a quick glance they still have the old Rev30 template they've been using since like 2K15.

Shorts waistband still to small too, from the looks of this screenshot it look they've copy pasted last year's throwback jerseys. Cool guys

Well the actual jersey models look good and a much improved, but the textures themselves not really.

Sad that they aren't using the proper faces for the time period. Like, prime Lakers Gasol didn't look like that. BTW, are the custom shoes for legends new? I feel like other than a few short list, all classic team players used the generic last year.

As far as jerseys, I don't really care since that can be modded. Would be more upset if I was on a console, but even then, most console players aren't gonna care.

Magic, Kareem, and Wilt look so weird in long shorts. 2K, get that specific Wilt headband right, a mod I did some years ago.

From the looks of the first screenshot, it seems like they didn't go back and fix the classic team jerseys. The Heat's red colour is still on the pink side like it's been for the past decade. They did however fix the side design and pushed it all the way to the side trim, however I think that's more of the change of jersey model that's fixed it.

This is the most good looking LeBron in 2k history looks just like that singing n***a in the gym lmao

[Aureus Divus]

this is the best LeBron 2k has ever produced!

[TBM]

It's the exact same LeBron with a darker texture and maybe a beard update.

He may also be talking about the body, which is entirely different. It's not even close to what they had in 2K17.

[TBM]

Touché.

[Pep]

They're finally starts to making correct trims, but Spalding still got wrong lines and it's wrong since old-gens.
I don't know if they're lazy or this is too hard for them (Trims are hard, but you're the creators of this texture so blame yourself!).
If Leftos or Jao read my post please tells guys from 2k that I can fix it for $100.

not so sure about that.


The texture looks completely re-done and the headshape looks different around his eyes and mouth as well.

Out of all the things they carried over, LeBron's face doesn't appear to be one of them

[TBM]

I said the texture was re-done.

As for the headshape, I still don't know. You'd be surprised how much a good texture could get things done.
