WWE 2K16 Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here

Loving the game so far as well..so many great animations and new things.

2 things I was wondering...I noticed in the trailer 2k put out that Seth rollins at the beginning of the match does he sit down and kinda back up away out of the ring heel tactic...is there a way to do this or is this only initiated by the computer?

Secondly, I don't know how to do it, but in the beginning of the matches I notice you or the AI push each other into the turnbuckle or ropes and lock up a bit..then the ref comes to break it out and you can press square on ps4 and hit your opponent....how do you do that?

It just bugs me more and more that Hogan and Goldberg aren't in this game. That would really complete the roster for me.

I mentioned before that I really like that you pick your wrestler from a list now instead of the grid, but I found last night (after finally figuring out how to get the accelerator to work) is that I wish you could preview the different attires when selecting a wrestler.

I finally figured out the new pin system and I finally remembered how grappling worked from last year. I feel like I understand what I'm supposed to be doing during submissions and it's still not working for me. I want to keep my color overlapping with the other color in both situations, right?

With reversals, where on screen can you tell how many you have left? I'm not seeing it.

Again, LOVE entrance interruptions. Very cool. Really digging a lot of the new little animations like frustration after 2 counts.

I had a match between Andre the Giant and Bo Dallas last night. The loading screen with them two next to each other made me laugh. These are the dream matches lol.

If red (attacker), overlap. If blue (defender) avoid red.

Yellow bars at the bottom of your player info graphic. Underneath stamina bars, momentum percentage and all that.

Just got this today and I've already had two of the greatest matches I've ever experienced in a wrestling game. 1 offline and 1 online.

I would love that. Could stick the real guys in from time to time, but generic guys like on 2K football would be great.

I'll have to keep playing and see if I can figure out how that all works.

Yeah I saw some weird choices as well. Some times the AI just stood there for up to 10 seconds.

I don't believe there is a block button.

I turned in two controllers to get the hang of the grapple system.

Flick right stick up I believe. You go into strong grapple. If neither wins the rock paper scissor match up, you will just push each other. Eventually the ref will try to break it up and square button prompt will pop up to punch. At least I believe that's how it's been done.

What is different with the new pin system?

Just wanted to make a point that I think Stardust's entrance is quite possibly the best in the game.

Instead of holding a button to fill a bar and to let it land at a spot, the bar auto-fills and you just hit X (or whatever Xbox equivalent) when it hits the spot. And it's circular now.
