Hmm... since one of NBA 2K's new big features is face-scanning using Kinect/PS4 Camera, I wonder if they'll incorporate that into WWE 2k15.

Here's the video for those who haven't seen it:

That's pretty impressive. Game devs tried this feature 10 years ago and it was awful.

Looks like everything aside from the Diamond Legendary cards is available through regular picks. I just saw a guy with Legendary Miz.
Are we sure that the Diamond Legendary cards AREN'T available in this same way? I'd assumed they would be gettable, if not rarer.

It's a very technical, methodical game. I'm too tired atm to provide a tutorial, but suffice to say that you should be starting with a small or regional fed.

If they are winning 90% of 5 pt matches, that's like... 666 matches. :devil:

At 45 seconds/match, that's ~500 minutes or... 8 hours. Either they bought a metric ton of boosts and have been playing non-stop, or somebody's found an exploit.

- Make sure the game is set to play in Administrator Mode. You should be able to do that by right clicking it and going into Properties>Advanced. If you don't do that things will get all messed up when you start moving folders around, as I well learned this week when I installed the game on a new computer and forgot to do that.

- Create a new database in the game and then quit it. Then download a database, unzip it, and take the files and use them to replace the ones in the database you created.
You can find databases at http://www.ewwarehouse.info/ or http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=525274

- As said, don't make the mistake of trying to play with WWE. The demand from booking so many shows a week and dealing with so many wrestlers will very quickly overwhelm you and make it impossible to find a place to start. Start with a small/regional promotion that won't demand too much work on you and simply book for a monthly show, or at most a 1 hour weekly show.

- You could read a lot of blocks of text about the game but really its an immersion thing, I think (then again I was the kid who never read the manual with the game until I got stuck). Start it up and check out all the links and try to learn what they do and what's in them. Its very deep but I think its intuitive once you get the hang of it and figure out where things are. Play with it for awhile and when you really can't figure something out come back in here and ask.

General starter tips?
- Don't sign people to written contracts unless you have a weekly TV show or run 2 or more events a month. It will just be a waste of money and a complication. Better to keep them on open deals since it doesn't cost you anything worse than their downside if you don't use them. Alternatively if you are running 4 or 5 shows a month you want to sign as many written or cheap deals as possible because your payroll is going to be massive.

- Keep an eye on the schedules of the other companies your workers work for. You can gently caress yourself over by building up to a major match at the end of the month and then realizing one of the guys in the match is booking to wrestle in Japan that night and won't be at your show. There's a calender that will show you any scheduling conflicts you have.

- Make sure to look at and adjust your Product Settings to see what kind of product your fans are expecting. The easiest way to tank a show is to book a great wrestling show on paper that falls completely flat because your audience was expecting more promos or less intense action. It might take a little getting used to to figure out what product you want and can work with but you need to watch those key factors like "Percentage of show are Matches/Promos".

I've had to shut down and restart my iPad, and that made it work. Then it happened again, and I had to delete/reinstall the game to get it working. This is a bad time for this glitch to be happening.

It is literally impossible to be unskilled at Supercard because it takes no actual skill besides "which number is larger?". Just grind for better cards, and you'll be getting Legendaries in no time.

It's actually possible to be bad at Supercard. You do that by buying a single $25 card and enjoying a neverending stream of 1-2 losses.

There's also various tricks to be "better" at it, like tossing commons into your KotR bench to tank your rating.

People also spend $125 and have 5 cards that can't beat a leveled up UR card.

I re-installed EWR and I really like the way it reviews your match like the internet writers at the time. Getting a star rating for the match feels more fun than the sterile TEW way.

The algorithm or whatever determines how many points a PCC match is worth must be messed up. I had one +3 match where the guy sent out three Commons and a Rare, and another where they sent out three Pro Legendaries.
