Like if you don't see a pretty big difference i don't know what to say



there's a lot you can knock the new generation version for, but i don't think character models are it really

even if they're not perfect, they're a huge improvement

slightly off-topic but i'm watching the 2k15 quick look and as much as i love jeff gerstmann he has some terrible wrestling opinions

It makes it very hard to listen to podcasts like Powerbombcast. A lot of them have horrible opinions and their fantasy booking ideas often rival the WWE thread on the scale of horrible ideas.

Reminds me of David Shoemaker constantly suggesting that Hulk Hogan be a central character on Raw in 2014 when I listened to Cheap Heat a few months ago.

That's one thing that really bums me out about TEW. I wish it was something where there is a X% chance of getting someone really over quickly by putting them in a program with a main event guy.

Yeah, I wish it did that. All it does is drag down the main eventer. It's hard to elevate people and takes good, consistent booking to do it. I know, I know, just like in real life.

Looking back on it, a lot of people seemed to be outraged that Career mode in 2K15 is too short. That's bullshit. I'm only halfway through the Smackdown tier and I am basically sick of it. I've probably put 10 hours into it.

The mode should be renamed "Dolph Ziggler's Career" mode because that's what it is. Wrestle John Cena, Daniel Bryan, Sheamus, Randy Orton over and over and over and over and over and over and get loving nowhere, even if you beat them. I don't know what happens when you get to Raw but this is a bit ridiculous.

Finally finished MyCareer in 2K15. It seemingly went on forever and I finally got a shot at the WWE Title.

Cena teases a heel turn at the end but then pulls a "Oh I actually respect you" right before you win the title from him.

Then I wrestled a final match where I "passed the torch" to the next guy who was some dork in a neon orange outfit. I beat him in my final match. Geek.

Then you get some message from Triple H about how you're one of the greatest of all time.

I'm just glad you can export the guy. I maxed out all of his stats and had a 6 year career before winning the WWE title.

I do not have a PS4 or Xbone and I'm not keen on buying either any time soon, so 2K kinda blew my sale on 2K15 by stripping career mode.

What I'm asking is, what's another good rasslin game with a well done career mode? (On PS3)

Here's the thing, the career mode in 2K15 (current gen) is actually the best once since SDvsRAW '07, which had the season mode that we came to expect at the time.

Starting with '08, the first one available on PS3, they started screwing with the career mode and it hasn't been as good since. That said, starting with SDvsRAW '09, they added the "Road To Wrestlemania" modes which were good and lots of fun, but short. '09 also had a Career mode, but it's much lamer than 2K15's. No stories, no cutscenes, no drama, just play matches and win titles. Not very fun at all.

The later games on PS3 kind of focus on Universe Mode as the central part, so you really don't have any options for a meaty career mode. Universe mode is kind of a hybrid of the '09 Career mode and the old GM mode. The problem is that it's a master of neither. WWE '13's Attitude Era mode is awesome, and I liked 2K14's 30 Years of Wrestlemania mode too. Go with which one of these heavily scripted modes you'd think you'd like best. I remember hating WWE '12's mode just because it was too scripted, to the point you'd almost never finish matches. It was infuriating.

I can't even remember a WWE game past HCTP with a career mode that wasn't brutally repetitive and/or filled with poo poo like "win 5 handicap matches!"

Up until '08, I recall that the season modes at least had substance and storylines. They're all going to get repetitive at some point but they still tried.

Another TEW question: if there any benefit to having a lot of road agents? I know having two referees is smart because if one gets in a car crash or something you can get really screwed over by not having someone who can do the job, but I don't know if having several road agents has any similar upsides, or if that answer changes based on the size of your fed for that matter.

Have a few at least. Some are better at putting certain types of matches together, and it's good to have some variety in the matches as well.

2K15 is a good buy as long as you're happy with it being a periodical game. You play it once a week maybe and get your fill, and that's that til the next game. Sort of like WWE Programming, if you expose yourself to it too much you get sick of it.

I do hope they get rid of the objective based crap in the 'featured modes' though; the second time now I've 'done wrong' on something. I believe it was the HBK elimination chamber match where you have to elbow Triple H with your signature from the pod. I did that but HHH reversed and I lost. Time to do the 6man elimination again, from the beginning!

Yeah, not touching that mode for a long time.

Could be like my problem where I'd do the elbow drop off of the chamber and it wouldn't count time and time again.

simosimo posted:

Oh god. Well at least it's not a limited window of use-move so you don't have to wait for slow animations/being reversed before traversing the pod and hoping HHH is still floored.

Yes but at that point, HHH becomes practically invincible and keeps trying to hit pedigrees and reverses everything. Plus, you have to charge up another signature if you hit him too much and you have to knock him down to set it up. UGGHHH.

The key is to only ever try it off the back right pod. It just doesn't register otherwise.

It's not a traditional fighting game. It's going to be like the Injustice mobile game, which plays like this:

Injustice iOS is mostly a button mashing affair, tasking you with tapping for basic combos, swiping for heavy hits, and completing various maneuvers to power up your super abilities (like tapping when a line hits a moving line hits a certain point on the screen, or rapidly swiping a certain direction).
