Also, seeing as you don't "use up" support cards and you can't combine them or anything, is there any reason to keep more than maybe two at a time?

I think you need 4 Support Cards to fill out your KOTR deck? That's about it anyway. I just feed all my Rares & below to my deck

Reminds me of how I ran into Wojtek a couple weeks ago in kotr. At least I assume it was the same wojtek since that's a weird name. Guess he found another hobby to neglect his child for after WoW.

Could have been the hockey player Wojtek Wolski

So apparently some info was released about 2K15. You know how Career mode is exclusive to next gen consoles? Well so is new motion capture animations, the chain wrestling, and the new stamina system. I'm sure that doesn't mean "motion capture" moves, but like little things with movements. Also John Cena is picking modern popular songs for the 2K15 soundtrack.

Well at least it's not like EA's new NHL game, where they stripped out almost all the features that were in last year's game when making the new current-gen game.

one of the recent on-start messages implied a future global tournament of some kind

Sweet. It's dumb but I'd love it if they rolled out some legendary cards like "Nation Rock" or "DX HHH". They kinda have done that with some guys randomly having older photos in the mix... I think they should have held off on those and made unique cards out of them.

Weird... I won a match, but when it brought me to the card screen it said I had 0 picks remaining. I tried to make a pick and the game crashed.

It didn't bank my picks... I want my two grey cards, 2K :colbert:

How the hell does the AI choose cards in KotR? Two tournaments in a row I've been hosed in the first round of the tournament because it chose ADR instead of the Rock for a charisma match (a 50 point loving difference)

Completely at random, it's the only way to ensure the game is fair to everyone!

Also, on the 2K forums they started working on a spreadsheet for the card stats at max level (pro cards listed are if you max the non-pros before combining). I copied it over to my own for better formatting because they were sorting it by name instead of stats.

People's Champ mode seems to be where the pay to play people shine. Seen lots of teams loaded with Epics and Legendaries in the 3 and 5 point matches I've played.

Yeah I am getting my rear end kicked in PC mode.

I play this game so much, I'd actually be tempted to spend money on it if it wasn't just "spend $5 to get lovely cards or spend like $25 to get a guaranteed good one"

I've spent more than I care to admit on Puzzle & Dragons because they price things in a more reasonable way.

I think people need to temper their expectations on what they'll be able to mod.

Sure you can. The card in question is called Erick Rowan.

Could you refresh me on that? I barely clawed my way into the quarter-finals of an epic-level KOTR by using all my boosts and I'm pretty sick of this crap.

Well in this case I'm basically punching under my weight class. I could get into an Epic++ KOTR if I stacked my deck, but instead you just put in just enough good cards to get you into the Epic level. Your crappy cards will even out the good ones, but give you enough to win your 2 rounds for sure.

Basically you do two good diva cards and 4 good player cards, leave the rest as crappy. Throw the tag match but stack the other matches.

Sometimes I swear wrestling game developers watch one episode of WWE programming and then base the whole game off that.

Has anyone else had major crashing problems since the last iOS update? Just about every day, there's another thing that I can't do; today, I can't swap a card out of King of the Ring. On top of that, the game will just crash at random. I deleted and reinstalled the game multiple times, with no lasting success.

My desire to grind ebbs significantly though, so I basically just check in to manage KOTR and hope for decent UR drops.

So, three weeks away from WWE2K15, and very little is known except the My Career mode, and a rumored list of the Punk/Cena, HHH/HBKS storyline matches.

That's not a good sign, is it?

I'd say no, especially considering the media blitz that other WWE games had.

Then again maybe 2K is just cheap and doesn't want to bribe IGN like THQ did.

Ran into someone 60-115 with several Epics. Then someone 2-3 with a couple of Epics. Nowt new, but I'm still floored by how people will piss away their money.

Only thing I can think of with low ranked people like that is that they played the game a while, decided they liked it, then deleted their account to start over with top level cards and attempt a huge unbeaten record.

Just a guess anyway. Otherwise people are dropping hundreds of dollars on a game they barely played, and I'm not sure I can deal with that.

My last piece of advice is to try to take the long view. On an infinite timeline, you're going to get everything you want from this game eventually, so why rush it?

Yeah that's the view I have. To me the game is kinda over once I get to the top, so I might as well enjoy the ride. This is basically just me pulling the arm of a slot machine over and over again while I wait in line for groceries or whatever. No sense getting mad that it's not paying out every single time.
