Wrestling Games 2013

[FLAM]

Man, I wasn't even thinking about AAA or NXT. That's amazing.

 

[vivisectvi]

Aw man, I seriously want online multiplayer for this game. That would be so sweet.

Is the whole file thing easy? Like is it just a USB drive and good to go or do I need to do a lot of shit to make the move?
I really liked FPW a ton so if I can do this save shit, I'm down with the buying this game again. Learning the timing again means I'm going to get the shit beat out of me for awhile though.

If the saves are already converted by someone else then it's just a matter of copying some files around and then onto your PS3. If you have your own saves, you need to convert them yourself first. They explain the process in the link Ex posted above.

 

[vivisectvi]

A lot of them have already been converted. You can grab them here: http://www.fpwarena.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=1965&p=52990#p52982

Any idea what this means exactly?

"CAUTION:

Understand that when you replace any SCEVMC0.VME or SCEVMC1.VME files on a USB stick, you are REPLACING the virtual memory cards that currently exist. If you make a copy to USB from your own PS3 copy of FPR's .VME files, then turn around and download some .VME's available online to check out, once you copy the .VME you downloaded into the NPUD21702 folder and overwrite it, that virtual memory card is GONE.

Always make sure you back up your .VME files when swapping virutal memory cards & saves."

Is it basically just saying that it's really easy to delete your Fire Pro data by accident? Because that I don't have a problem with. I can always just find another save and start with that one. But I have also already copied over, without saving, the original file. And one way it's possible to interpret that is that without having that original data it might fuck up my ability to save Fire Pro. Idk, it's probably nothing but kind of confusing.

 

[vivisectvi]

Pretty much. I guess it's more a warning for people who are going to try to use a couple of saves interchangeably.

 

[Exslade ZX]

Ah okay I figured it out. Basically .VME 0 is Memory Card slot 1, and .VME 1 is Memory Card slot 2.

So you can actually have two saves at once. But there's really no workaround as from then on if you replace anything that whole memory card is gone. So pretty much there's going to be a lot of renaming to 1, and just adding stuff to your original save through the ingame method.

Although apparently that first save has the full 827 wrestlers filled Lol. So I'll have to be making some roster cuts!

 

[vivisectvi]

Yeah I loaded that one up and was shocked to see how many are remakes of the default roster. Hell most of the defaults are slotted in the Retired section so they're hidden from you being able to use them. Had to move Vader back into active competition, well.. because CRITICAL!

 

[Dobbs3K]

So awesome to be able to play FPR again...but my timing is way off! I think it's probably because I'm playing on a plasma TV...having a really hard time getting the timing down, even if I lower the difficulty of matches to "2".

Most of the defaults in FPR weren't that well done compared to some of the older Fire Pro games, to be honest. At least I think that was the concensus of the "Fire Pro community" at the time.

 

[vivisectvi]

It's true. The only unfortunate part about the Edits is that there are not alt costumes.

If you haven't already taken a look, I found that if you go to Other settings through the XMB screen and change it to Full Screen with Smoothing ON, the game looks amazing on a big screen. This is about as close as i'm gonna get to HD fire pro lol.

I'm also pretty convinced they changed the difficulty. Probably not, maybe just because I haven't played in a while I no longer have the timing down either. But I played with the difficulty of 5 no problem on the PS2 version. But playing 5 on this, the computer is insanely quick on the grapple. It's pretty ridiculous. I lowered mine down to 2 as well so I can control the match and let them take over when I want them to just to have a good match.

 

[DrVenkman PhD]

I got squashed the first match I played but that may have been a weight issue (Sasuke vs. Khali, I couldn't hit any moves and I forgot the controls). I pretty much murdered Bull Nakano in a Gruesome Battle with Andre the Giant though.

 

[FLAM]

EDIT: Ha! Figured it out. For some reason, the file didn't extract all the way the first time, so I was thrown off when trying to follow the directions. Roster looks amazing!

 

[FLAM]

Gonna try to edit Mike Quackenbush, Kassius Ohno, and Daniel Bryan. Their heads don't look too great. But it's a minor complaint. Seth Rollins is awesome. I stopped playing when I realized it was 2AM.

 

[tekcop]

Stayed up till 4. :-\

 

[Robert]

I remember trying to beat everybody up with Don Frye in the Gruesome Fight and Terry Gordy just beating the shit out of me.

 

[Dobbs3K]

Finally got that edit pack working today. Some awesome edits in there. Now I just need a legends edit pack and I'll be golden.

I still don't have my timing back yet though.

WWE 2K14 will be released in the UK for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on 1st November, 2K Sports has told Eurogamer.

2K announced a 29th October release for the game in North America last night during its financial results briefing.

This year's entry in the long-running wrestling series is the first to be published by 2K, following the demise of previous publisher THQ.

But, like last year, the game will again skip Wii U. The last title in the WWE series to be released on a Nintendo console was WWE '12 for Wii.

There's also no word of a next-gen console release, although 2K may be keeping such a version under wraps until Microsoft unveils the next Xbox next week.

 

[Danville_Wrestling]

Screw the new game. They need to fix the one count glitch.

 

[Sabre]

Ive heard of the glitch, but ive seen the cpu kick out at 2 many a time in my game.

 

[vivisectvi]

During leverage pins? Apparently that is the only time a 2 count kick out can happen.

 

[Sabre]

Nope my caw doesn't have that ability.

WrestleMania III Savage. Neat.

 

[bps21]

Those graphics look like they're for the Gamecube.

 

[Vigo]

Those graphics look like they're for the Gamecube.

Yeah. Not impressed with them at all. Ryback's attire looks like it's painted on his body.

 

[vivisectvi]

So, p.much the same graphics as WWE13.

 

[Dobbs3K]

Graphics don't bother me as long as the gameplay is good.

I've become re-addicted for FPR on PSN of late, so I won't be in a rush to buy a new wrestling game for a long time.
