Got tired of the player court/size ratio so I shrank the players

This is for offline players

All across the board 3 inches shorter.

There is no noticeable difference between what you saw before concerning heights between player sizes meaning.

Brook Lopez still looks like a giant compared to Isaiah Thomas who looks real small as he should in context.

Shrinking player sizes also reduces width of the player models.

Its a subtle but noticeable difference, especially at different angles, and the court feels better.

Of course i use my own sliders for speed an movement because IMO that's the biggest issue next to player sizes.

I may post the roster (regular 2k official roster) but if you guys want to give it a try, I encourage you to go ahead and do so.

Took the vertical down to around 35 too because i feel like the big players already jumped too high and makes it feel more like they're reaching up towards the rim rather than already being up there if you get what i mean.


Took mine down 4 inches personally.....

Give it a try, it helps.

Just interested in you guys' thoughts.

Could take some but you may not be able to notice much.

You wanna check out what I have so far?

I only did like 5 or 6 teams last night. I did this before to test but had no time... still don't and am currently testing but you're welcome to give it a shot for some feedback on here.

You know you can mass edit heights right? So you don’t have to go through every team and every player doing it individually.

What about wingspan? I find the wingspan is exaggerated and leads to player models covering a larger radius than appropriate or realistic.

I know there is an across the board editor but didn't know you could do player height as well.

Are you certain of this?

I promise you guys should give it a try. Ill put the edited roster up if you're willing to give it a shot.

Re: Got tired of the player court/size ratio so I shrank the players

Ive seen this dude from okc doing standing dunks and he is an SF jeremy grant in real life he made some vicious plays under th3 basket something i was really missing in the latest 2k versions .

Even some bigs are way too spft around the rim where in real life they sometimes smash that ball hard !!

If you lower the vertical to 35 and lower height im afraid its going to be a soft game around the rim especially those with standing dunks and verticals to perform some vicious plays under the rim ...

Just note that height is part of the formula for the overall rating.
