the Yuke's games have been samey forever but 2k20 is the first one i'm aware of that's an outright broken, hosed up pile of poo poo

if you like the general style of gameplay, everything from HCTP straight through to 2k19 is at least, like, okay afaik

They were functional, the online worked (to a point, 2k19 wasn't happy with more than 4 CAWs in a match it seemed), and trying to do Whose Gimmick Is It Anyway didn't create horrifying non-euclidian polygonal abominations from an eldritch dimension. 2k20 is just on a whole new level of broken compared to the previous games.

When was the last game that didn't have the mini game for kickouts/submissions? I hate those. I'm just not good at them. I always end up getting pinned after the simplest move or submitting because I didn't move the control stick right.

Yeah but the new patch apparently fixes a glitch that lets you assign moves you haven't unlocked yet and that's what's really important.

yeah so W.A.V.E. Pro-Wrestling is tonight, starting in about 10 minutes. I was sick last week so I forgot what exactly I booked when I recorded the show but I think the main is Glambot vs Triumph. Come check it out

Good to know.

For everyone else, 'whatsisname' is referring to Chris Dickinson. I had seen a match between Dickinson and Statlander and it made me wonder if either Dickinson was short or Statlander was tall.

it's kind of weird that this isn't a game, it's just collecting cards. I guess that's kind of nice. My first four star was Jay White so I'm happy it's someone cool.

I've already finished the bingo card so I'm hoping there will be more to do without ponying up some cash. Luckily I pre-registered by like two days so I got a bunch of lion stones to start with.

actually the gameplay on gacha poo poo is usually absolutely poo poo so cutting that out entirely is a very good move.

I'm really tempted, but that's a lot of pricey DLC to do the whole "dream match simulator" thing...

fire pro is swiftly gaining paradox levels of dlc, and none of them are a story mode written by suda51 so whatever. base game is super fun tho my partner and i enjoy picking random caws and trying to do Sick poo poo. i’m not into running simulations but that’s the power of firepro there’s something for everyone except for if that someone wants a decent story mode. then that someone is SOL BABY YEEEEOWWWW

Just bought the base game and Fire Promoter. Been looking for a wrestling booking sim that doesn't take an hour to set up each show and I can watch or participate in the matches as a bonus. Now to spend 3 days downloading CAWs and setting up rosters.

Hey, Johnny, what's a "shitpost"?
Serious suggestion: The best deals in Fire Pro DLC for people who are interested in downloading a wide variety of wrestlers, or making their own, are the NJPW Heavyweight and Jr. Heavyweight DLCs. Both of them have a bunch of moves and costume parts that are widely used by a lot of people.

The Deluxe Edition of WWE 2k19 is on sale for $22.49 at Nuuvem for anyone like me who only buys a WWE game once every few years, plays on PC, and doesn't want 2k20 because it's broken. They get their Steam keys directly from the publisher but are based in Brazil so you need a verified Paypal account to purchase certain games from them if you are outside their region. A lot of publishers, including 2k, don't want people buying tons of keys on the cheap and reselling them for a profit. Note that the key in the link is not good in South America, the UK, Europe, or Asia. Also, I have used Nuuvem a few times before and never had any issues other than it sometimes taking around an hour to get my keys but I got my 2k19 key immediately.

That said, the PC creation stuff on the servers is not great. I checked just the other day and there just was not many people making good stuff in general for PC 2k19.

This is what I'm finding out. Plus they changed how some move types work so they're in completely different categories and it's confusing as hell for someone who hasn't played in a few years, especially when trying to set Sigs and Finishers. Like, rope moves that used to be grapples are now strikes and there are so so many sub-menus.

e: It took me 4 hours to completely create my character for My Player and 95% of the options were locked off. He is, of course, indie as hell, with a shiny plastic tank top and and trashbag pants and he does all the flippy moves I could afford.
