I think they tried to fix the problem of the music playing twice by telling the game to only play it once, but then it doesn't KEEP playing it for the winning animation. So I think if you turn off the highlights, the game might play the custom music for the winning animation instead... If you get a chance, can you test this out?

Turned off postmatch highlights and custom music plays throughout, through the celebration animation and keeps playing until you exit the match.

Lol you'd be surprise

You are awesome man

is the undisputed championship a shared title between raw and smackdown and how is the WCW title announced and written during ring announce?? WCW championship or WCW classic championship??

# 284 Aggies7 @ 11/16/11 04:37 PM

I'm sure it's been answered but is there openings to each show with music and pyro? And you said you can go match to match without having to go back to match screen. Is there anything in between matches such as stuff going on backstage setting up storylines?

I think you can choose which brands compete for which belts. So if you want the Undisputed title to be Raw exclusive, you can set it that way, if you want it so all brands can compete for it, you can select that too. I might be wrong about this, so jrider99 can clarify. The problem is, I think you have to have two active major titles, though I could be wrong on all of this.

If I got this I'd be interested in a completely CAW Universe w/o WWE guys and me "booking" CPU vs CPU matches and watching them play out. If anyone gets the game and has information on how/if this works this year (like 11?) then I'd appreciate it.

Yes, the shows open up with pyro and everything. In between matches, you get a screen showing the next match while the game loads. It's just the same graphics they show on TV. Looks pretty cool actually. All of the cutscenes/storyline stuff I've seen happens once a match begins or after it ends and before you advance to the next match.

I'm the same way. I'm curious if the AI in a CPU vs CPU is better than last year...

This is what I did in '11 with WWE guys, legends and CAWs and what I will do with this years game if I get it also. So I am very curious to see how this works as well.

If you have touched CAA, can you make a 6 sided ring? Just wanted to see if we could make a TNA arena.

You can only change graphics, not the ring, not to mention, pretty sure TNA had that copyrighted, even after ditching it.

is the commentary just Cole and Lawler or does it change with the shows?

Commentary is Cole and Lawler all the time.

I consider that a game breaking bug...

Awesome. So at least there is still a workaround. Crazy that they'd let a glitch like that slip by two years running. It seems like something pretty prominent someone would notice.

Thank you so much for checking this, mate. I really appreciate it.

Any new sliders? Or are they all the same? Attributes?

I think the list of attributes has been out there for a while on THQ's website under the wrestler profiles, but when I get home I'll give a rundown of those and the sliders

Have you got a chance to play through the draft yet? If so, how balanced is it? I'm wondering what's to stop Raw getting several main eventers in the draft and Smackdown only get jobbers in return.

I've seen two drafts and it's totally random. In my first year, Triple H and Husky Harris went to Smackdown and Goldust (I think) and Sheamus came to Raw. In the second year, ADR went from Raw to Smackdown (I can't recall who else was involved). The good news is the draft can: a) be turned off and b) essentially vetoed by editting a guys brand.

In a related note, I've straight simmed two years worth of Universe and have no problems with any of the title reigns I've seen. If anything, guys seem to hang on to the belts too long. I haven't seen any jobbers rise through the ranks to claim a belt, though several have earned title shots, including Slater, McGillicuty, Otunga and Goldust. Goldust actually had a brief run as IC champ, but it lasted only one month.

Major title holders have included Cena, Punk, HBK, Undertaker, Sheamus, Orton, Christian, Mark Henry and Triple H -- I may be forgetting one or two, but these have been the most dominant guys in my Universe, as they should be.

did you bring back the Women's championship or just using the Diva's championship? have you seen any stories with them, and what have been the prominent feuds/matches? Also, is the Undisputed Title put on both shows if selected? ohhh and did you find a way to figure out the tag title debacle for the ones you don't want to use?
