Cardboard Box posted:giant bomb has actually talked about this thing in recent weeks. a lot of review embargos are either the day of or day before release, it doesn't usually mean anything. Yeah, what you should watch for in games it's review copies not being sent out at all.

Or post-release embargoes like with AC Unity. I think the game was on sale for 12 hours before reviews could be posted.

That's what's happening this time. The review embargo lifts the night of release day, not the morning. The game will be on sale (and pre-orders intact and fulfilled) for the whole day before reviews can go live.

That was informative, until it cut out before the part I really want to see, the moves list. I hope in the career mode we dont get hosed from the start and have to use a generic moves set.

Don't worry, they probably got rid of all the superfluous moves just like they did for the entrances.

Somebody mentioned that there are going to be nerfs made to the Supercard KOTR mode but I can't find any specifics on the developer's twitter or the Supercard forum. Can someone fill me in as to what changes are going to be made? I'm currently languishing in a weird purgatory of being too OP for UR KOTR (and having over 20 UR wrestlers in my collection at the moment) but not being good enough to win an Epic KOTR (because every one I enter is filled with guys playing with stacked hands of Legendary pros and a bench of common cards) so if they're going to make it even harder to get pairs of cards then I guess I'll uninstall now and save myself the grind.

Who the hell pre-orders games these days… we are past the days where games are on cartridges and actually scarce on their release date. The last time I had trouble finding a game on the first day was back in the N64 days. Edit: God, what horrible announcing… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kIxR0jAFXDQ&t=170s

KotR is fairly short and to get Pro cards so easily makes it the path of least resistance to upgrade your deck. The generous rewards plus the current lack of drops from the board made it this way. When we change the drop system on the board we will be changing the KotR rewards at the same time to ensure both paths are good ways to upgrade your deck for the commensurate amount of effort. Source: 2K forums post by a dev So no specifics yet, but it seems like the exhibition drop rate will be tweaked somewhat and the KOTR rewards won't be the same.

pressedbunny posted:People suckered in by pre-order bonuses and the MUST HAVE NOW mentality that publishers have cultivated. I don't think anybody's expecting reviews on Monday, just that they'll be out Tuesday when the game is. They aren't being held for 24-hours post-release unless I'm totally misreading the statements I've seen.

Midnight on Tuesday literally always means 'as soon as it's Tuesday', release date embargos are really common and not much of an indication either way on quality. Lack of review copies, post release embargoes, those are what make you go 'oh poo poo this is gonna suck'.

I pre-ordered because I wanted Sting and wanted it pre-loaded, and unless it's even more broken than the last couple of years I'll probably still enjoy it enough to justify the purchase.

I like how Supercard gives you a second Cena UR when you hit 9000 games. As if you'll play that many and still need UR cards. Edit: In that video, did King just read out a list of move names that are assigned to the character? Hilarious. triplexpac fucked around with this message at 17:47 on Nov 14, 2014 |

Yeah the ladder rewards just become completely useless after you hit Pro SR Paige, they need to basically halve the gaps between them at that point.

I like that this implies they took the time to photoreference all the wrestlers without shirts, even if they always wear one. Maybe that explains why they couldn't get the divas in CAWs!
