I'm feeling something new...something...I'm happy??!!
Yeah I want to enjoy this game because it's so simple and addictive, but I'm at like 64/155 for Nattie and dropping down to 1 point matches means I may win 1/5 or so. Not even worth it anymore. I don't have great manager's cards, and even the 1 point matches are stacked with Pro Legendary (I have no pro legendary cards) and survivors (I have no survivors). The best I can do is hope that they use up all their good cards on my poo poo cards or that I can get to 6 or 7 wins quick and watch as I lose the rest.

I've come to the conclusion I'll never make Survivor tier. I can't get past qualifying for the life of me in KOTR anymore as the sandbaggers have good cards (and of course with the new rewards tier I just keep getting more UR's) and RTG seems to have me stalling at Epic when in Exhibition I am Legendary ++. That and I still have yet to get a single Epic or Legendary Diva card means I'm still using a UR pro Paige. I would just delete the fucker but I dropped a little cash on it a long time ago and therefore still feel connected to it or something.

I don't usually say this about a game, because I don't really understand game design or the game business, but it seems like the really hosed this up.

Note that I didn't feel the need to say anything like this about 2k15. THAT'S how bad supercard has gotten.

Just hitting that wall myself, early into Survivor (won my first match, lost my next...like, four.) Especially frustrating since Survivor Flair is the first reward card that would actually help me. Still have the better part of two days to get there, but I can't really count on getting lucky 32 times.

Apparently the +1 fights are completely dependent on your deck so can be sandbagged, but the +3/+5's are more static and ramp way the hell up. I've hit a wall at 120/170 through Flair with my Survivor tier deck - winning about half of the +3 fights. I guess they must have decided that non-whales getting a survivor pro pair wasn't cost-effective. Having to push so hard to get a single unpaired survivor card is really depressing

Basically it makes RtG yet another a rich get richer situation, unless you're willing to spend an insane amount on doubling those +1 with title matches.

I hate to be another detractor of Supercard, but as someone who frequents this thread but has zero interest in this game, doesn't it seem like there's only the most tenuous of grasps of this even being considered a wrestling game? It barely has anything to do with wrestling besides pictures.

But like I pointed out, at some point you can't even win the +1s, so it stops being about spending more, and starts being "lol thanks for the time and money, you can't even sink more to get anything, bet it sucks to suck".

Shirley, these things happen in video games. We can't get hung up on real-world morality.
I made it all the way to the Survivor Flair card before I had to drop down to 3 point matches. It's clear that I won't get the Pro Reigns, and I'll be cutting it close with the time limit to even get one. Still, having a Pro Legendary Natalya is nice.

Butt first, let's

At this stage I'll be lucky to get the UR Warrior. I'm 21 pts away but I was 60 two days ago. It's really sucked all the fun out of this and I'm just playing because I don't want all that to go to waste and me not even get the Warrior card. But once I do I need to take a break because I'm starting to hate this poo poo.

I wish there was some kind of "tap out" button so when I go down 8-0 in a RTG match I don't have to keep going through the motions. Especially since it always ends 8-6 or 6-5 or something that looks respectable because I beat up on the sandbags at the end. But I know the truth is I just got trounced by a dozen Epics and Legendaries.

At least we're not the Thalmor (yet)
In WWE2K15 My Career, Ric Flair just hopped on social media to put me in a tag team match with Rey Mysterio, on SmackDown... against Stone Cold and The Rock.

First off, that match would never happen on TV, let along SmackDown, it'd be a massive PPV, at least Summerslam, but probably WrestleMania.

Ric Flair then immediately follows it up with me and Cody Rhodes against Alberto Del Rio and Cesaro.

Bit of a step down there, Ric...


I'm intrigued by this ridiculousness.

I'm trying my damnedest to get a 2nd Reigns. I'm 100 points away. I broke down and dropped $6 so I could buy 75 title matches. I can only win 1 point games now (and even that isn't a sure thing). So I figure with needing to win 50 games at 2 points each I should be able to do that by tomorrow.

On the bright side, I pulled a survivor Rock during a RTG match, and my KOTR will be ending in a couple hours (I'm dropping out in the semi-finals as I know it's impossible for me to go further), so that'll be 2 survivor cards today. Hopefully my KOTR card will be something I can pair with one of the 16 unpaired survivor cards I currently have doing nothing.

Holy crap. I just won 5 +3 matches in a row. Well, actually I only tied half of them, but I don't make the rules that makes me win a tie. Either way 18 whole points (thanks title match) in one round of play. Its a miracle.

Now I'm only 3 pts shy of the UR Warrior and that's realistically all I can hope to nab. I guess considering how good a run I had I'll see if my luck can continue and make a play for my first Epic. But I can't imagine it will. But at least I'll get that Warrior because I was really starting to worry that I'd even fall short on that.

I don't think I saw it posted here, but if you want to cheat the system you can force close Supercard before losing a RTG match and you won't lose your title shot. You won't get the 3 card draws and you will still lose your bout, but you can keep the doubler until you're actually going to win one if you care to do it.

Whoooo! My KOTR reward was a second Rock. Today is a good day! Maybe pro survivor Rock will help me win some RTG matches now

It's not a traditional fighting game. It's going to be like the Injustice mobile game, which plays like this:

Injustice iOS is mostly a button mashing affair, tasking you with tapping for basic combos, swiping for heavy hits, and completing various maneuvers to power up your super abilities (like tapping when a line hits a moving line hits a certain point on the screen, or rapidly swiping a certain direction).

Is the Rainmaker in the game? I know you had to get a pack to put it in 2k14 (which I never had). Are there any decent NJPW CAWs anyway for PS4? I heard that the current gen CAW system was very limited. The only way I'd ever buy it would be if I could get decent facsimiles of most of the NJPW roster.

RTG is definitely the most fun game mode they've made, the last one was fun and it's sad that this one immediately became a humongous pain in the rear end

Yeah I hit a wall midway through Flair as well. Got to 80 points and now I can't do anything

I found some decent Nakamura and Okada CAWs, and a few for AJ styles and Bullet Club Devitt/Finn balor. Some take advantage of the face capturing system 2k15 has.

You may need to tweak the move sets, attributes and entrances a bit but you can say that for all CAWs out there.

To Everyone Who Is Upset About The New Matchmaking

Ok, i get it, youre upset. Im upset. I wanted the Roan Reigns, its a good card, it looks cool. We all want the best cards to be the best. We all want to be Adnan or Jonathon who are the best and I acknowledge them for their awesomeness. But remember one thing... ITS A GAME!!! Yes, we all want to be the best, but we cant. All basketball players want to be Lebron James or Kobe Bryant but they arent. When you wake up tomorrow, ask yourself "Did not getting that Roman Reigns run my life?" No it didnt. I sacrificed an entire 4 days off to get PCC Rock and it cost me a pinched ulnar nerve and carpal tunnel and about $60 for it. Thats how obsessed i was to get it. My fiancee called me nuts and got pissed that i was attached to my phone all weekend. This thread isnt to rant about not getting a PCC or RTG card, its to remind you that this game for us to have fun, a hobby. Not to ruin our lives over it. My fiancee plays this game also ans couldnt get past flair, i cant get the first Reigns. But im ok with that. Its not worth my paycheck or going out and having fun with friends. Id rather have my paycheck to pay my student loans than to grind through a PCC or RTG. The Roman Reigns wont make me a manager at my company. Yes, i love this game, and i play with a passion. But to all those who rant about RTG being impossible or those same people being in the top five of PCC, rememeber that if you get those cards or not. Your life wont change when you wake up tomorrow. And you can believe that!
