Nice to see something finally released! Hopefully the next trailer will tell us something we don't know about the game yet.

It is REALLY nice to see David Robinson with a better cyberface!

The lighting looks closer to 2k14 Next Gen to me, anybody else notice that? I've also been waiting for that for quite some time.

Yeah..... they got rid of the Rev30 holes, Jimmy Butler got a new face scan. They re-made the nets this year, looks a lot better:



Other than that nothing new, also the accessory colours for the Dream Team's away jersey is wrong. Not dark enough:



It also looks as if they've given KD the high school player model.... why? His current player model was great, he looks too skinny now.

Here's an example, way too skinny imo:

Barkley looks way too dark. They just love to mess up with players color skin

Maybe 2K17 has more body types? This is GHETTO gameplay guys!

Not a bad trailer. Doesn't sway me one way or the other.

Will user's have the ability to get some of those camera angles and close ups via instant replay?

[Andrew]

Cinematic gameplay footage almost always looks nice, but never tells you much. Then again, raw gameplay footage only tells you so much as well. You need to get a feel for the game on the sticks to really know what you're in for.

It's a cool trailer, but I definitely want to know more about specific improvements and additions this year. Nice to get something; hopefully, it's opening the floodgates.

Wow, no "This looks exactly like 2K16, I ain't buying the game this year"-comments? I am glad people pay attention to details and see the little, yet significant visual changes.

Am I the only one seeing the 2k11/10-like skin shine? I like it. Johnson's face is not the same color as his body and Durant has the body of my girlfriend. Noice.

I think that's what I was getting at with the lighting, NBA 2K14 next gen had a bit of that as well (I miss that lighting).

Remember in 2K15 when Ray Allens face was a completely different shade than his body? Same with Jim Jackson in NBA 2k16? Can we PLEASE not have a repeat of that?.... That is straight up LAZY.

But you could also obviously tell that the player models are better than last year's

[TBM]

They re-uploaded the trailer without the song changing keys at the end.

[Andrew]

Updated the first post accordingly.

[PeacemanNOT]

Did they really just re-upload an entire trailer because of one small detail? It wasn't even that crucial, alright then.

[Andrew]

I once re-uploaded an episode of the NLSC Podcast when I noticed a couple of months later that the MP3 tag read "NLSC Podcats". Of course, that just involved quietly uploading the replacement file via FTP, so it's less obvious. But you know, if they didn't do that, some people would keep complaining, so they can't really win either way in that regard.

[PeacemanNOT]

I suppose coming from a company of their stature you would always make sure your marketing of the game is perfect.

Is it the same singer/song from 2K16?
