I wonder if they'll base it on the new versions or on like 2k15 on PS3 or something else horrible. But also I like to stream so The Boys can watch me beat up triple h so i'd probably still end up getting it on PS4 unless they add streaming to the switch like they said they would (lol)

The Switch is more or less as powerful as the original versions of PS4 and Xbone, isn't it? I imagine it should be a lot better than during the Wii days when the system specs were a lot weaker.

I got Smackdown vs Raw 08 or something for Wii back in the day, holy gently caress that was dire. No specialty matches and so much loving waggling.

In WWE2k14 they had mixed tag matches, and if you so much as brushed against the other gendered opponent you were hit with an insta-DQ regardless of the ruleset. We tried about three matches that all ended in dumb DQ calls before we gave up and did Diva only Hell in a Cells. I imagine they "improve" on that by canning you into a tag animation whenever the other team tags out among other stupid decisions in appeasement of ???. I guess the logic is these are real performers as opposed to other games where this is and never has been an issue, but when Nintendo games and the dang Lego games are more lenient than the WWE games on the issue, its fuckin' goofy.

This information comes from a class I was in taught by the lead modeller for Mortal Kombat in 2007, so I can't totally vouch for how accurate it is, but he claimed that to achieve a T rating your game could have blood in it, or it could have inter-gender violence in it, but not both. I believe the second pressing of No Mercy had the blood taken out of it because it would have been too difficult to take out inter-gender violence. So maybe the ESRB has relaxed on that a bit and 2K is just selling it as a bullet point.

I wouldn't expect it to run at 60fps in TV mode, at the very least. If it's not the PS3/360 version updated, I would expect it to have most lighting stuff taken out of it and for the audience to look significantly worse. On the upshot it might load faster. The load times on the PS4 aren't great unless you're using the on-disc wrestlers. It's upwards of 2 minutes for an all custom wrestler tag match.

I can't imagine playing it with a keyboard, it has controller support for xbox/ps4 stuff.

I'm slam buying this poo poo at 9, infinite CAW slots plus eventual mp3 support for entrances will make this poo poo the best game since No Mercy/Fire Pro Returns

Also they put out a list of known bugs that they're working on.

quote:

The following bugs have been identified at launch. We will try to address them ASAP.
Please use the suggested workarounds in the meantime. Thank you for your understanding and we look forward to your feedback!

Issue 1)
If you are simming a CPU match between multiple players, we recommend that you free up as much bandwidth as possible. If there is too much stress on your system, it may cause the match to de-sync across computers, giving each user different results.

Issue 2)
When making a new edit wrestler, you are able to delete that wrestler even if you haven’t created save data yet. DO NOT DO THIS. It will delete a different edit wrestler. Either save first, then delete, or simply leave the edit screen without saving.

Issue 3)
If you upload a wrestler with multiple outfits to the Workshop, only the first outfit will be uploaded.

Issue 4)
Currently the mouse only functions in the menu Edit Wrestler > Appearance.

Issue 5)
When holding a league match, the names at the top of the card are bugged. (This doesn’t affect the actual match order.)

Some of the pre-made wrestlers are amusing to me. The fact that there's one called Ernest Miller and he's a white cage fighter and I can't help but think "That's not The Cat."

Also, they might want to do something about Jamie Wilson's nickname.

It looks like the Misawas are part of a collection that Phil Parent and the other Fire Pro Community guys always build to load wrestlers using official moves and logic created by Spike in previous Fire Pro games. So that collection is going to be great.

I can't figure out how to actually get the CAWs into the game, I've never used Steam Workshop before.

I don't have the game, but on the stream I am watching it looks like CAWs default to the 'Retired' folder and you have to assign them to a promotion?

It's hard to see but you have to push left (or right) when you have your fighter selected to go over to CPU and select it. There you can change to P1.

That'll be a dude from another forum that I post on, he was one of the guys that got early access to the game and was testing out how robust the character creation is. Four different Misawas based off of four different eras of his career with individual movesets and their actual costumes.

game is good. the timing for grapples is def a bit "later" than it was for Fire Pro Returns so I had to recalibrate how late to put my commands in. I played Returns recently and the input for that game def let you put your move in earlier.

Got it loaded up for a little fun. It's that good good Fire Pro style that you know and love, but it feels like it could use more quality of life additions now that it's being developed with PC in mind. Like, you can create a CAW and choose either Blank Canvas or Copy Existing, but if you blank canvas it and want to copy an existing moveset, there doesn't appear to be a way to do it. Also, the controls are reeeallly janky when creating a character or trying to change settings for a match. nothing deal-breaking, but I can definitely see how this is still early access.

Still, it looks like a really promising start and, with some polish and some love, it could be a lot of fun for years to come!

edit: If you subscribe to a CAW, go to Edit Mode > Team Edit and move them from Retired to whatever so you can play with them
