Re: WWE 2K16 Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here

Enjoying the game so far. But I wish that career mode wasn't created character based. I don't like the way so many games are going that route for career modes.

Maybe I'd like to play as a legend or current star instead of having to download a lookalike CAW. I'd like to play as a Bret Hart or Finn Balor without having to spend a large part of my game time before my character learns how to climb to the top rope or have any other skill.

Re: WWE 2K16 Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here

This is the first WWE game where I've actually found tag matches to be watchable (which is good since Universe schedules so many of them). It really needs to be on Fast Momentum to get a Raw-style tag match, otherwise they go on way too long with pin breakups and such. But when one of the double-team finishers land AND the illegal man stays in the ring after the move to cut off the pin breakup, matches can come to a surprisingly quick end.

In general I feel like Fast momentum is the best choice for regular TV-type matches, with the exclusion of main-event type stuff. If Resilliency is not in the equation, I'm seeing a lot of first finishers ending matches. Just feels different from normal somehow. I like the flexibility because I can change the momentum to reflect whether it's a mid-card or an epic match between top superstars.

The create-a-superstar is pretty fun to mess around with I think. On top of making a bunch of pointless non-wrestler celebrities and pro athletes and famous historical figures and such, I also ended up making myself in the opposite sex for an inter-gender jobber type character for universe mode (my inspiration of course being Andy Kaufman). It didn't exactly work out like I was hoping and ended up more like having the first transgender wrestler in the wwe, which is also just fine.

The Create A Wrestler mode is more or less non existent unless your using photo scan.

Re: WWE 2K16 Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here

the pace is great i like seeing the slower motion moves like suplexes, drop kicks, where they dont look like they are moving 100 mph or like they pop up super fast like nothing happened, i mean it still kinda does that sometimes,

i will say there has been some head scratching moments but not alot, like a ladder match in which ryback was up on the ladder pulling on the belt, big show looked at him for like 5 seconds before trying to go up the ladder and then right when he got to the top ryback pulled the belt off, i was like huh ahha,

there is alil glitch in the chamber matches, guys will start wigging out and then next thing i know they are like moving through stuff,

and last but not lest.. the royal rumble still sucks, sorry just my opinion, when usually the winner is one of the last 5 guys to come in its no surprise, and the eliminations in it sucks there is basically 2 styles of eliminations that i see while watching, hardly ever does someone just get thrown up over the ropes out onto the floor without first landing on the apron and then having to be pushed/kicked or hit off the apron,

and they go for eliminations way to often, but it is what it is,


SOO wait, how come in universe mode there is no storylines like cut scenes, or promos, or run ins by rival members, jw, i know all that happens on career mode

Re: WWE 2K16 Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here

I really enjoy this game a lot, but this has to be the most glitch-filled game this generation. I play a lot with my friends online and this is especially true there. There's a lot of unintentional comedy, if nothing else, so at least I'm having a good time lol.

And something has to be done about the targeting system. It only seems to work when it feels like it and half the time I don't even know who I'm looking at in the ring. When I click in the stick it should move to the next person. This shouldn't be so difficult.

Those have been issues for as long as I can remember. We'd have guys floating in the crowd or stuck inside the ring.

Re: WWE 2K16 Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here

Not sure if this is a glitch but I had a match where I was Piper against the cpu who was Mr. Perfect. I threw Mr. Perfect to the outside & then down the entrance walkway, he then decided to walk towards the back resulting in a countout win for me. Did he decide he'd had enough or a glitch?
