Yeah I'm not suggesting they make a new game next year for the record. Supporting this game for those of us who bought it is the right move I just think a lot of the issues here are things that can't/won't be fixed with post launch support. If they started doing massive roster expansion packs or something that'd be neat.

My son saw me playing and wanted to try his first match he wanted to do the exploding match and wanted to be the skeleton man which was Darby. He fought mjf for the title and made fun of mjf for wearing a towel. He beat his rear end and won the title. It was a bloodbath and my son had so much fun

I think a lot of the CAW stuff is just content additions rather than reworking the system entirely, which is trivial if you have a graphics department. I think people are mad theres only 8 faces rather than being mad that theres no slider that allows a handful of people to make actually good models and everyone else just making variations on the first 8 faces anyway.

Sounds like the game isn't worth buying ATM if you have no one to play with. drat shame. I know that storylines and CAW stuff takes tons of development, and if they pump out updates it'll get better. Really hope it sells well

Is anyone else on PS4 experiencing slowdown in multi-person (3+) matches? I have a lot of tolerance for this game but it seems to be randomly broken in hilarious and unexpected ways on this platform in particular.

I (PS4 copy on PS5) was playing online with a friend last night and she was unable to play via online so instead we did shareplay and it worked like maybe 88% of a charm? She still had some lag from being like 5 states over from me, but the game itself played well on my copy.

This is the most fun that I've had actually playing matches in a wrestling game, WWE All-Stars aside, since the heyday of the N64 AKI games.

That said, people's complaints about everything outside of the matches themselves being sparse are absolutely valid. I'm really interested to see what this game looks like in 3-6 months.

I think people who buy the AEW game want the game to be like AEW instead of completely unrelated things with AEW branding.

Well yes, but there are also concessions that get made for video games. AEW also loves regular battle royals but you're not going to get a 20-person battle royal in a video game unless you're MDickie and the jankiness and brokenness is a feature.

I'm just curious about what kind of change in gameplay could feasibly be done to make the casino battle royale specifically more similar to the actual match, keeping video game concessions in mind.

It's weird because like a lot of the time its the weird suits, but then the tag team rumble on the what was it All Out with Bucks/Lucha Bros was just a 1 by 1, after 90 seconds royal rumble, which is seemingly what they're imitating here so in conclusion i dont know amazon won't let me know

So I did a Casino Battle Royale, and I paused the game just as it was Riho's turn to let the discord I was recapping the game to know it was my turn, and then I was entirely unable to control Riho, and also she was still billed as played by me. lmfao.

Idk if it was "I'm not the first person in my suit" "I paused as Riho was entering" or "Christian's entry was triggered almost the same time as Riho's" but one of those things caused this issue.

How do you actually steal finishers? I see the button is the right stick but I don't know if it has to be used like a counter only when they have special or what the deal is.

I would honestly not recommend getting it for PS4 right now.

E: I just realized that I didn't answer your question. I have one friend that has it for Xbox and he hasn't complained about these issues, and he's absolutely the type that would complain.

R3/click the right stick. I *think* this only works with grapple finishers though; like you can't steal the Buckshot Lariat but you can steal the Deadeye.

Being able to hit your signature/finisher without having to grapple first really throws me off. You get the prompt to press the button for them when you get close to the person, but my muscle memory wants to grapple first.

This fucks me up too. I assumed it was just the specific finisher I had with the wrestler I had that allowed me to do that.

It also only works if you have a perk unlocked, a fresh created character won't have it, I don't know if it's on all the actual wrestlers or not.
