It's my understanding that all first-run copies of the game will include a code to download the Rock, regardless of where you purchase. I'm sure someone else on here could give a more definite answer, but that's what I seem to recall hearing.

Same with wake up taunts.

I'm seeing wake up taunts all the time. Usually that's how I know the AI has a finisher, when I see the wake up taunt. Of course, by then it's too late (although I have reversed a finisher before).

As for comeback moments, I haven't seen any from the AI -- but in fairness I don't know if I've had a match against an opponent who has the comeback ability. I have had several comeback moments, but have yet to pull one off successfully. The AI is pretty good as reversing them (or else I'm really bad at hitting the buttons at the correct time).

When I play later today I'll make a point to wrestle guys who have comeback moments and see how often they happen.

It sounds like people are really confused by the possible "brands". I keep seeing people posting FCW and AWA. The only options are Raw, Smackdown, NXT, Free Agent, Legend, and NXT. You can turn a show into AWA or FCW, but there is no such thing as an AWA roster.

And it is good to see you can destroy the brand extension, but it probably won't work the way I'd want. I would have the WWF and Euro title on one show and the WWF and IC on another show, but the problem is, I bet that the crossover talent never competes for those minor titles. So your IC title would only ever be defended on one show and not the other.

BTW those asking about AI vs AI, this guy has tons of footage of it (legend mode) and it still sucks imo...




I don't like how Christian gets powerbombed off the ladder at 17:30 and gets right up basically.

It only took about a 1/2 hour to change them. Basically you categorize them into Main eventers, mid carders, and jobbers. All DIVA stats were 30 and below. The "Santino's" were in the 30's and the Undertakers were 70's. This way there was a more "Realistic" outcome.

Looking at the stats this year, it seems there are more attributes that can play a bigger part, which will create that "separation" between those types of wrestlers.

I don't mean to sound dumb, I just want to be straight on this: Is it possible for me to have WCW Monday Nitro, WWE Raw and ECW as my shows?

It seemed it took me forever to adjust them all , but yeah 30 mins to edit them all is about right.Its well worth it tho , universe is the most you make it like jrider has said.

Jrider

Just a question out of curiosity. Based on everything you have done with the game and taking into consideration gameplay, presentation, graphics, lasting appeal etc. What score would you give the game? (10 point scale)

So a quick comment/question about Unified Titles. So it sounds like if you have someone unify the Heavyweight or Tag Titles it essentially ends the Brand split. So I'm wondering if we can use this to create one big brand that has more than one minor title?

So for example if you start a Universe and you have a Unified World Champion, Unified Tag Champion and Unified Womens champion. Could you then have say the US Champion and European Champions left seperate as the minor titles. Since you said wrestlers from both brands will show up on both shows does that mean that wrestlers from both shows will then be included in the rankings for BOTH minor titles? I hope I'm explaining this well enough.

Not sure if this has been asked yet but can you do title for title matches? Like if I want the main event of Wrestlemania to be the WWE champ vs the World Champ are both titles on the line or do you have to choose just 1?

OK, I did just what you described and it looks like this causes some problems. First, to answer your question yes, it is possible. There are combined rankings for the unified titles, but seperate rankings for the minor belts that are brand-specific. That's the good news.

Creating a unified singles title does, in fact, end the brand split for all intents and purposes. You will see Raw guys fighting other Raw guys on Smackdown and vice versa. You will also see some upper mid-card guys get bumped to Superstars because there simply aren't enough matches to go around on the two main shows.

The biggest issue I saw involved the draft. Because the game no longer recognizes brands, you had draft pick matches after Wrestlemania that pitted Raw vs. Raw and Smackdown vs. Smackdown. They weren't all like that, but it did happen.

Just some things to consider if you want to make a unified champion...

I tried to make an inter-promotional title-for-title match like you said, but it only considered the first title on the line. However, you can put title-for-title within the same brand, say have the U.S. champion take on the WWE champion with both titles on the line, with the winning claiming both belts. This does work.

EDIT: Upon further review, this can work with inter-promotional matches. At first, I tried to do it on Raw and it wouldn't work, but I just put the WWE title and World Championship on the line at a PPV and the winner now has both belts. So there ya go!

hey JR i know u are doing SO much to answer all of our questions BUT i have one request.

i havent played a WWE game in years & i like the "sim" aspect of starting my game with "reality"

if i make a thred (or can you)

with some guidelines/instructions to set so that we can keep things in order?

kind of like a MUST DO list, before starting your universe so that it will be "sim".
like what & how to rid titles, wrestlers etc. etc.

EDIT*

as u get an idea of things that need to be done... here is the link to that thread

Having watched several match videos, I think move-set edits could really help the match experience. I used to always spend hours tinkering with moves in the N64 days and past SVR games... getting rid of the generic moves everyone seems to have, removing as many "lifting" moves as possible from the little guys, etc.

I assume guys do the same (along with ratings edits it seems); is there any way to share these? Ie, download a move-set or even share an entire roster file? Forgive me for being out of the loop. I think the last SVR I had was 2009.

You can share move sets and created wrestlers, but not the entire roster in one file. That would be awesome, though.

Didn't mess with adrenaline rate. It seems like that's only there to keep people from spamming running attacks. I'm not sure exactly what it does, but that's what I've noticed.
