They confirmed that career mode starts in NXT. Probably why these have Gabriel and Kidd in the game.

Plus the roster even on the 2K site isn't even 60 people. Even if you assume the selection screen doesn't section off Divas like in the recent games, there's still room for half again as many characters. They can squeeze Zayn, Neville, Dallas and Breeze in to give you someone to fight in career mode.

I thought the PS3/60 versions didn't have that mode to begin with?

No, the last-gen versions don't have MyCareer, where you take your CAW from NXT to the main roster. All versions have the rivalry mode with Hunter/Shawn and Cena/Punk stories.

8/10 is pretty much what I'd give DA2, honestly. Probably, on balance, not as good as the first, but it has some elements I really like. (The whole dialogue stance system is pretty awesome, and party members all having their own little spaces in the town was cool.) The blander combat and re-used maps weren't great, but they're not the holocaust atrocities some people on the internet act like they are. And the story's a bit unfocused, but the individual strands work for me, but I think it commits the unforgiveable sin for many of being a BIOWARE STORY!!! Like that's anything to be shocked by. It's not all that deep, it's basically a long-form action movie in tone, and I have no clue what people expected, considering the vitriol and actual loving abuse that got hurled at the developers. (Seriously, death threats because one of the writers said she 'squeed' when writing one character? And the gaming press are the ones that lack perspective?)

In ea ufc, can you create a fighter a bunch of dudes, like say make a bellator roster if you wanted to? Or is it limited to 1 dude in career mode.

Also is the game worth picking up overal? Reviews and boards are kind of divided on it and i can't get info on if the patches improved things or not at all. Opinions kind goons?

You can make a bunch of guys (but not women).

I like it. Haven't played for a few weeks, but it's fun and they did put some effort into patching away some of the bigger criticisms. Like they added the ability to touch gloves at the start of rounds and after stand-ups. And they added the ability to stuff a takedown attempt into sprawl, which should've been in to begin with, but at least they patched it in. Plus you can get hatemail from 13 year-olds mad that you got them in the Muay Thai clinch and kneed them in the head until they died.

So you could conceivably make brock lesnar, ben askren, Shinyi aoki, whatever, or would that involve doing career mode and all its fights 3 times?

You can make CAFs outside of career mode. Career asks you import a previously made dude or prompts you to go into creation.

Sadly I found out this was because of a manager that had been played previously. Way to drop the ball, 2k :mad:

Basically yeah.

Pretty much. I hate it as much, if not more than most people, but the women are NOT a major selling point of these games, nor of the product in general. I believe that should change, but right now, most people don't give a poo poo if Paige is in the game or not. Hell, a big portion of their customer base probably barely notices if AJ is in the game, and makes fun of anyone who plays as the girls.

New John Cena gimmick, he comes out to the ring at the start of Raw and just recites a different classic poem, vaguely themed to whoever he's feuding with. It'll be like his rap shtick, but classier. Kids get to learn about Keats, Ginsberg and Plath.

So it's very obviously a reskinned 2k14 Wrestlemania eras mode with a reskinned Undertaker streak mode to finish. Yeah, seems about what you'd expect for the last gen :effort: ports. Is this the first screenshots we've seen of the 360/ps3 models?

The 'Rivalry' mode is pretty obviously the Attitude/WM mode as well, though? It's not a shock that that stuff's there. I'm actually a little bummed the 'battle SuperCena' thing isn't in the next gen versions, considering I really liked the Streak mode.

You should still have some CAWs show up on the main roster as job guys, at least if your dude is getting the Ryback/Goldberg/Rusev push. Only so many times you can squash Heath Slater.

Possible I guess? I hit my finisher on a random game created wrestler and I ran out of stamina and the guy managed to pin me after it. Real tired of this game.

e; Sure would be nice if this loving game told you what allegiance the managers you can purchase are. Just bought a manager but they're only good for heel...and no one knows how the loving slider works, what a trash game.

I just assumed they'd be whatever they were around the time the game's cut-off seems to be. I bought Naomi, assuming she'll work for a face.

I then proceeded to get squashed by Rusev because I wasn't used to the AI going for early covers and assumed the meter would fill much quicker than it did, so kept letting go too soon. :saddowns:

I'm enjoying it too, but seriously? An XBOne only bug where your save data/unlocks vanish randomly? Game first 'forgot' I unlocked Rusev, then just ate my progress on the showcase mode. Dumbest part is my career save's there. I mean, sure I could use the Accelerator, but I don't want EVERYthing unlocked, just the poo poo I already had. I've always thought the all or nothing approach that they use is silly. Why not let the Accelerator unlock individual things?

And on the forums they're blaming it on not shutting the app down completely, which, um... that's basically a selling point of the consoles?
