I'm honestly more bothered by the weird animation during the promo. Like you would think that for a big name guy like Taker they would have had someone mocap a Taker style motion or even a generic "Evil guy" animation.

I can't wait to make Taker cut a heel promo about how the local sport team sucks.

I have a feeling I know the answer, but... any sign of AI improvements this year? I'm one of those 'make-CAWs-and-watch-them-in-COM-vs-COM-matches' guys, and lovely AI really kills that style of play. Like the AI deciding not to counter/grapple/do anything because it has a stored finisher it's trying to hit. Same this year? (It is, isn't it?)

The only issue was the cpu couldn't make other cpu controlled opponents submit. They are pretty aggressive now, though the lack of AI editing still means everyone still does mostly the same thing. No idea yet whether the submission thing is fixed in 17.

Last year if you fiddled with settings a little you could get the AI to do some cool matches. You're correct about submissions though, they were really rare. I'm kinda excited to play but I've got my expectations in check and I'm not playing until Thursday. If the CAW mode doesn't suck horribly, I'll be happy. joylessdivision fucked around with this message at 15:13 on Oct 11, 2016 |

Just tested CPU submissions with Bret Hart vs Ric Flair . Flair won with the figure four, so looks like that's fixed. Really aggressive AI this year from the look of it too.

I was reading up on the taunt system for 2k17 and it's actually a cool idea to make the taunts effect you in different ways to where you can actually be strategic with them instead of spamming them.

It works fairly well too. The animations seem to blend better, so you can, say, hit the Pele with AJ and then do his arms-spread pose to get the buff and it looks pretty natural.

Watched some of New Legacy's midnight stream, and it seems like there's a lot of good and some not so good. Apparently you can't slam people through the top of the cell anymore? People only fall from a gentle push or slight stumble. Craaap. Also, no more 2D renders for wrestlers, only game models. Gets that helps CAWs and Superstar Steve Austin look like they belong better with the real stars On the plus side, the audience isn't infinite clones. It's infinite palette-swapped clones--you can't notice if you're not straight looking for it. That's a really subtle but effectI've improvement.the backstage brawling is great but pretty limited. Not jumping to spend the cash but I like what I've seen so far mostly. Twisted Eye fucked around with this message at 16:29 on Oct 11, 2016 |

It looks like a really clean UI this year. I plan on getting a next gen system next year maybe it will be on sale and I'll check it out. Honestly I'll forgive the actual gameplay if the experience is clean and easy to use. I'm the worst gamer.

Honestly I'll forgive the actual gameplay if the experience is clean and easy to use. I'm the worst gamer. From the videos I saw, the UI across the board looks so much better than it has, which to be honest, is a blessing. The actual gameplay has remained mostly the same, and I know I'm one of the few people who likes the more slowed down, simulation style gameplay, but it was such a pain in the rear end to find anything in that games menus last year, and having to bounce back and forth between menus for every little thing was annoying. A clean UI for this series seems like such a minor thing, but it makes life so much easier, especially for someone like me who spends 90% of their time doing creation stuff. How's the soundtrack this year BTW? U usually end up playing with the game on mute after about a week.

Are reversals still purely timing-based? That's always been the worst aspect of the Yuke's gameplay IMO. Like, getting used to a consistent timing window shouldn't grant you a limitless supply of countermeasures for anything an opponent throws at you. That is horrible design for a competitive game. Ability to counter should involve some sort of cost, and in a wrestling game should take the rest of the match into account somehow (accumulated damage, current momentum, etc.). Last game I played was '12 and I remember how ridiculous it got where you basically had to ignore grapples entirely.

They give you 5 reversals that if you use up you don't get any more until your meters fill up again. So you have to be strategic in using them.

I don't have the game yet but FYI, don't put your PS4 into Sleep Mode while on the title screen, seems it could wipe out all your poo poo.quote:Hello all, https://www.reddit.com/r/SquaredCircle/comments/56zis1/wwe_2k17_ps4_save_data_loss_warning/

At the same time who goes into sleep mode while you are in the title screen. Just close the game and then go to sleep mode.

Most games allow you to switch to other apps, if not other games, which makes the bug more likely. Plus a lot of people would probably not bother or forget to manually close the game app when they've played some matches and want to do something else. Games have trained us to head back to the title screen when we're done with them.
