Humans disgust me. Vile creatures.
So, TEW folks, how much cheating do you do with the database? I generally do a little at least, since I'm mostly interesting in a booking simulation not a budgeting simulation. Though this newest game, for kicks I set it so Bischoff hates both Austin and Regal in the hopes that they'd get released sooner than later - sure, I could just edit it so they worked for me, but I thought this might be more interesting. I also gave Hogan and Bischoff some severe addiction/steroid issues. We'll see how that all plays out, so far the only noticeable reaction is that Hogan beat Austin for the US title in WCW.

I normally always do little things like this when I start getting bored, but I am trying to play my current game completely in the bounds of the financial reality of the AWA.

At the end of the day it's a visual spreadsheet, so I don't really see why you wouldn't edit some of the cells in it if it makes it more fun for you.

edit: Immediately tempted to do this when

I'm trying to do a battle royal to determine draft order for fantasy football league.

2K15 let you give everybody infinite finishers in the rumble or start with 3 preloaded?

Would Mdickie be more fun to do this with? 2K's royal rumbles are lame

Also is there a site with mod resources?

MDickie rumbles take forever and sometimes the game crashes because too many dudes in one match. Fill the ring with weapons and get something like this:

I thought WWE was doing a press conference like thing for the roster like they did last year but apparently it is just the old IGN weekly reveal stuff instead. I think they jumped the gun and tweeted the link out, but the image shows the Lucha Dragons are in from the NXT R Evolution show.

The actual problem is the camera angle, it makes them look taller than the top rope.

VPW2 is fantastic. I like how they didn't just make a WM2000 reskin with a bunch of Japanese wrestlers but actually put in the work to make it feel different. You have the fighting spirit counters and special "burning" finishers and all that kind of stuff, it's great.

I don't know which puro game I like better, VPW2 or King of Colosseum II. Both are excellent.

Is there a good guide to explain the differences? I had no idea the features you're talking about existed.

I do really like how the AKI movesets make a lot more sense in the Puro world. Moves I laughed at when I was a teen who only knew WWF are now awesome.

They really do, back in the day I was always baffled as to why pile-drivers were so poo poo tier in AKI games.

some differences between WM 2000 and VPW2
Shoot fighting and free combo fighting styles
Shot fight match styles
A small but effective caw logic menu
A cool mask creater in caw
Running grapples
Full win/loss/draw records for every wrestler

Nah VPW2 was the first with running grapples. Kobahi had his running neck-breaker and Akiyama an exploder.

No Mercy has persistent weapons.
New animations like the 360 sell for clotheslines and the spaz out sell for top rope dives.
removed a lot of reversals like the german suplex no sell into a running attack
Had Slowdown in matches with more than 2 wrestlers.
removed created titles with records replaced them with WWF titles, but left out records
Better textures

What drove me crazy is that you'd get this slowdown with managers, and there is no way to turn them off. So even 1v1 matches would have slowdown a lot of the time

Apparently turning the music off helps with the slowdown, nothing however helps with the random and regular deletion of all your progress.

So are they just throwing in all the characters they already had for 2k15 to make up numbers? Adnan/Mustafa makes very little sense for storyline as they did a Warrior thing last time and they're clearly not going to feature WM7 Hogan

Basic Chunnel

Jesus! Jesus Christ! Say his name! Jesus! Jesus! Come down now!

Well they claim to not count different eras of the same character so the 2K15 DLC wrestlers will number, what, 15-17? The Warrior DLC guys, the WCW guys, Christian, and the Ascension / Adam Rose / Emma and Paige. If the old Hunter Hearst Helmsley model is the Connecticut Blueblood gimmick it'll probably get left in. Might pull the same trick with Mustafa / The Sheik.

The most important open question is whether they worked things out with Mick Foley

My solution for this is a controller pack to back up all my CAWs and a gameshark to immediately unlock everything, though that doesn't help if you regularly edit the main roster's costumes.

I bought a Everdrive 64. It's like $70 or so, and you can run all the games off an SD card that backs up your saves.
