I think the XBOne technically CAN do it, but it needs to be allowed in the game, and no multi-platform title is going to do something like that for the second-place console.

Metal Gear Solid 5 did, I'm pretty sure. I know PS4 can't do custom helicopter entrance themes but PC sure can and I've heard the Bone can via Spotify or whatever.

Also, more relevant to the Season Pass: Blake and Murphy, but no Alexa? What's the point? And great that Joe's in, though that puts paid to the idea that the cutoff was before the women became a big selling point, and we're not getting Charlotte or Sasha, but we're getting the Shockmaster, Stevie Ray and the matadors?

The four NXT women have been major parts of NXT longer than Blake, Murphy or Joe so its just pure idiocy that they aren't in.

Something about the statement 2K released said "It wasn't us it was the WWE" to me. Like they want the Divas Revolution over but not TOO over to outshine the Total Divas Divas, and I guess that includes video games. Gotta capture that total divas market of gamers after all.

Regardless of the Horsewomen bullshit, the roster is pretty excellent. I will be pretty bummed (but not surprised) if the game turns out to be bad again.

I maintain that for a game cut within an inch of its life, 2k15's return to the slower in-ring pacing of AKI made it more fun to play than any of the games over previous years. Stuff like the new counter point system could be big steps forward or big steps back. Even as someone who likes to play these games I'm not all that confident they'll nail it. Plus the rest hold system sounds… not good

2K15 is pretty good, just sparse. I've said loads of times before - 2K15 is like WWE TV. You can't marathon it, you just need to play one or two matches and you're exhausted

At the risk of missing out on the Terminators, I think I'm going to give 2K16 a few weeks after launch to squash some major bugs, see if Career Mode actually ends up being even half as good as they are claiming, etc. I don't feel this has to be a day 1 purchase for me.

It definitely doesn't matter who you choose to play as or against. Well unless you chose a tiny guy VS a big massive guy. The only edge is playing as dudes who can do springboard ropes and poo poo. Hopefully the new skills and reversal strategy-game will mix things up a bit.

It plays better than 14 due to the slower pace. It strips out almost everything, however. I want my special referee matches dammit!

I am very appreciative of the slow pace of the newer 2k games as it allows people to acclimatize to the weird and nonsensical controls the entire series has always inexplicably used. If they're not going to include any sort of loving tutorial at least this way I can learn without getting a loving beatdown all match.

Lighting the ring stairs on fire by accident and then slamming my opponent through them with some overly complicated move. Every MDickie game is janky as gently caress but they're incredibly fun to mess around in. Speaking of Wrestling Revolution 2D, the pre-match promo where your guy comes out as gay is actually in it. I thought that was added in WR3D but I guess not.

Has anyone messed around with 80's Mania Wrestling on iOS? I stumbled across it last night and it's an ok time waster. Sort of like a super dumbed down EWR or TNM with a bunch of off brand 80's wrestlers. My only real complaint is the whole normal mobile game "2 currencies, 1 you can get by playing, the other you have to pay money for."

I miss the old days, where you had multiple competing wrestling sims. Remember Promotion Wars? There was one where you couldn't actually pick the winners of the matches. You could just assign someone to get a push, and that would help his chances of victory. Every title match was a nail biter when you had plans for a guy.

Remember Promotion Wars? Welp, then this might be right up your alley. If you've ever played those awful Filsinger Games things, this reminds me of those a bit. There's no winner picking, but guys are arranged into tiers of Curtain Jerker, Mid Carder, and Main Eventer, then have stats like Skill, Mic Work, Pop, Push etc. In general, a higher tier guy will defeat a lower tier guy, and your champions always have a bonus when they are defending (so it's harder to beat a champ, thus a mid carder going against a main eventer champion will almost never win). Guys can level up also, by appearing in segments that match their type, etc. THEN, there are "foil card" versions of each guy which are powered up versions of their base character with stats that are better than you can level the base version. EDIT: After looking into this further it looks like Filsinger actually did have something to do with it. Crazy. EdsTeioh fucked around with this message at 20:17 on Oct 9, 2015 |

I had to use the money I'd been saving and buy 2 scrubs. At least I got DangerZone out of it though, who's been a bit of a sleeper. I'd also totally drop $5 if there was a way to just receive cards through normal play. As it is, you'll get a token at the end of each game year. At that point, you can trade that token for $100,000 and use that to buy more guys from the market. Where they really strangle you though is that the market only has 3 guys and refreshes once every 24 hours, so that creates a funnel for bringing in new guys. Each year you'll also unlock a new venue, which will provide different income from each show. I went from bringing in $30-50 per show and now average $200ish. I also cashed in a token for $100k and sprung for "Jet Set Strutter" (totally not Ric Flair) who is a Main Event Bigmouth that will usually bring in *** matches and ****+ interview segments, so that increases your income as well.

You get to keep the cards and money you've gathered so far, and this time I spent $1000 on the promoter that gives you a bonus $100 per event. Figured it would pay itself off quickly. I actually emailed the dev about the issue of hitting an event without enough roster members though, it's not very user friendly. The game is a pretty fun little proof-of-concept though, definitely has potential if they can keep adding cards and features.

Yeah, I feel like there's an awesome game in there somewhere, but as it is, it is a really fun time waster. What I'd like to see added: -Face/Heel turns-I've been using the Neon Express (totally not the RnR Express/Rockers) and they dropped the tag belts. I wanted to do a Shawn vs. Marty thing after that, but having face vs face was killing the match rating. Also, there are times where I run low on guys and my roster is face slanted due to the random market. -Booking finishes-duh. -More varied finishes-DQ's and such. They MAY be in the game somewhere, but I haven't seen any yet. -Bigger marketplace. If it's going to refresh daily and be limited to 3 things, I'd like to see something like: 1 face, 1 heel, 1 flavor card (manager, match type, sponsor) EDIT: Did your restarted league have all of the wrestlers you'd already acquired or did it give you a new random lot? Also, do you remember your starting group of guys? I'm curious to see if it's always the same. EdsTeioh fucked around with this message at 19:52 on Oct 10, 2015 |
