My favorite bit: Booker asks you to work another match on the same night. Sure why not. Oh, I just won the world title.

It's one of those too strange for reality, but then I remember WCW.

Wasn't that pretty much just Survivor Series 1999?

Virtual Vince McMahon is just as good at booking the Women’s championship as Regular Vince. Current lineage: A Bella Twin > Earthquake > Bella Twin > King Kong Bundy > Bobby Eaton > Jerry Saggs > Jake Roberts.

Edit: Jake was stripped of it, and it was given to Jim Duggan. Such a success story for the women’s revolution.

I just made it in to the Weekend Warriors and Al Snow comes out with his belt to talk trash, i beat the poo poo out of him, steal the strap. I pose and then put HIS BELT on myself in the middle of the ring. Al gets up and seeing this sprints towards me and goes up for his patented Al Snow frankensteiner and i spike him with a pile driver then throw the belt on his bleeding face as the segment ends

Im a 41 year old Matt Black/Damien Demento ( i thought it was PAC) who is tag champs with i think Vader in Rising Sun

loving Derek Switchoff gave me the worst haircut of all time, I won the tag titles with Disco Inferno and our manager Jim Cornette (as faces!), I tried to start a union with Big Show but instead he shook me down for money, and then I got fired from WCW. I love this loving game.

newLEGACYinc is currently running a Rumble sim in 2k20.

https://www.twitch.tv/newlegacyinc

So far they've had the game crash at #27 of the women's rumble, a horrendous women's tag match that took half an hour to end in a countout, Roman/Owens include a very suspect run-in, and Sasha/Carmella end when entrance interference took so long the match was thrown out.

That crash in the women's rumble was one of the funniest things I've seen in a while. It was a great stream.

It was a couple of patches away from being really good a few months ago, then the game's math got changed for the worse in a few ways and it's since been indicated that any further changes to the game that take longer than a weekend to implement aren't coming.

It's nearly impossible for companies to run out of money now, and popularity caps on workers have been removed. On a long enough timeline any medium-size or larger promotion is sitting on tens of millions of dollars with nowhere to spend it and has a roster filled with major stars than they have TV time. I've also seen complaints that worker stat growth leads to too many good wrestlers in the game world after three to five years, but I haven't played a save long enough to see the consequences play out on that myself.

I will say, that the game is pretty much still just TEW, the math is a little worse, products are a little worse to game, and in general it still has that feel of not being able to model any wrestling aside from the WWF in 1999 well, but you can figure out what works and how to make things fit what you want and you can do some fun fantasy booking bullshit if you are so inclined.

TEW was definitely one of those things where I'd get super into it, eventually get burned out/bored, step away for a long while, then eventually get super back into it again. I think the last time I played it was the 2008 or 2010 version or whatever? I remember downloading a then-current "real world" mod and trying to make TNA actually viable by firing a bunch of the elderly/dead weight workers, before realizing that the ones with name value could work to put over guys I wanted to build up (because the way the game worked was, the more name value guys you had in matches, the higher the show's ratings were, or something like that), so I reloaded and had Hogan jobbing to whoever night after night until his contract ran out. :v:

Did 2k20 ever get “fixed”? I know it’s probably a glitchy mess but is at least on par with 2k19?

I played it a bit before they removed Chikara's name and roster. It feels very incomplete. Like it could be the basis for a good wrestling game if it had more manpower.

Great CAW system, though.

They kept the 2k19 servers online because 2020 was such a mess. The big CAW designers are all mostly still working in 2k19 and they’ll be keeping it online until 2k22 or whatever the next main title is.

I've thought of buying 2k19 on sale at some point, but it's been on my wishlist for like 2 years and i don't think it's ever been on sale once.

i think it’s mostly dependent on how much you go along with what the booker suggests. if you’re more agreeable your attitude goes up. in my opinion it should be the opposite, and measure how much “attitude” you give the booker and his dumb ideas. ha ha.
