With FPW Returns, I made CAWs of all the Presidents. Never finished fleshing out their movesets (apart from finishers) but it's still fun to watch.

Go watch the entire 2013 G1 Climax, since it's round robin too.

Oh I watched about 80% of the matches already, I just had no idea what the points meant or why people who had been beaten were wrestling again. How I got through 20 years of life without ever learning how Round Robin tournaments work is unheard of.

Thinks It's All Real
Saw this on Reddit this morning

quote:

I had a good 20 minute demo of WWE 2K14 and here is my short recap:
-It looks like WWE 13. And 12. -New reversal system feels smoother, but looks wonky in some of the transitions. -The addition to dialogue not in cut scenes is pretty cool (Daniel Bryan chanting YES in his entrance, Foley going BANG BANG, etc) -30 Years of WM mode is a carbon copy of Attitude Era mode, just with different matches and objectives. The menu or pacing didn't change from last year. -AI seems a little picked up. My match with Foley in 30 Years mode went about 7 minutes and Foley went for finishers and signatures, the game was locked on easy for the demo.
Overall, I hope this is the last year that Yukes is involved with the WWE series. They are a lazy developer who cuts corners and has gotten complacent with the bare minimum. I hope that with Universe 3.0 that this game is more of a standalone than a very intricate expansion pack for WWE 13.

So a game that was mostly created while the publisher either went through bankruptcy or was changing to 2K is going to be kinda low-quality and a lot like last year's title? Color me stunned.

Really all 2K can do is polish up the Yuke's turd as much as possible, get working on a better next-gen engine, and start bringing features in ASAP. Next year's game is going to be next-gen, you'd imagine, so it's going to *also* have it's own share of problems thanks to that. I just hope they keep the momentum going the right direction.

Next year's game is also going to be on the current consoles, so it'll probably be a stripped down version of what we usually get

RE Wrestling Game news:

I have teamed up with a programmer and we're working on a 'no mercy style' wrestling game for the PC. We have an early alpha build of the engine so it's not all hear-say like most start up projects. I joined up as a texture artist/graphic designer and so far things are looking well.

The dude needed help with the creative side as he's primarily a programmer, so enter simosimo!

The game will have the usual international promotions [think MDickie universe] and will also feature world saves [think Fire Pro R savegames], so you could technically have a 90's world without interfering with other worlds.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QlL9cHiulJA

So i'm essentially in charge of getting the look right, that means designing the promotions in the game e.g:



Each fed will be inspired by their real life counterparts, and full fleshed out [aprons and etc]. Rockstar games are my influence, how they flesh out stuff they don't even NEED to, but they do because they're awesome.

It's gonna be a fun ride.

Well it's possible, promotions/federations are likely to be modules, so you can install/add/remove whatever you like - provided someone has made it. I like the idea of having a european tournament, loved reading about those in Brets/Foleys book.

More art - tackling those current day feds!

Just a minor quibble, I think you meant "premier" instead of "premiere" on the USWrestling banner there. "Premier" in this instance refers to "first in quality" (or "best", or "highest quality"). Whereas "premiere" generally means "first showing" (i.e., "debut"). :v:

Looking forward to seeing how you guys do with this, too. :)

Thanks! Nothing final at this point just toying with the design style. Actually, I remember watching a Premier league football match and the commentator was american and he kept on pronouncing 'premier' as PREEEMEIIIEEEREEE [that has always stuck with me til this day in my head].

Also with regards to creating wrestlers:

Unleash your inner child (or creativity) with .PNG textures. Just draw what you like in your image program, save the texture, and it's automatically in game.

Not only that, you can name the file what you like and the game automatically capitalises AND displays the name in the CAW menu. Just look at this scar and Al Snow style scribble on this poor guy. No effort, no difficulty.

Even I can't wait to see what the final thing will end up being like.

ps - these character textures aren't mine, so look forward to tackling them too.
