Re: Wrestling Games 2014

Unless of course the current gen version ALSO doesn't have those features, and they're only cut because they don't want to make the last gen version look better.

I bought it for 360 on a whim and I'm returning it (haven't even opened it).

Wow. I've seen better CAWs that that. Hopefully current gen is better.

It's like the commentary in these games haven't changed in years.

I like how they modeled the face.

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

Justin Roberts' announcements and Sting itself are awful. Also, how could they not add his scream during his taunt? Revenge on 64 even had it.

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

And no entrance music?

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

They removed stone colds entrance jacket. Seriously? It's the little things like that, that make it rediculous

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

"The man called Sting"? Meh.

We need Gary Michael Capetta's "THIS. IS. STIIIIIIIIIING!"

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

Why do they even need commentary in the game? Just bring back playing some jams during a match. That was one of the best part of the N64 games. Commentary has never worked in these games.

And yes, that announcing is god awful. No enthusiasm whatsoever. I agree that they should just hire Gary Michael Capetta to do the entrances. He did them for that Legends of Wrestling game, if I remember correctly. You don't quite get the energy of a Sting entrance without Capetta blowing out his vocal chords.

And Mike, he does have entrance music but the arena crowd noise + Roberts awful introduction drown it out. You can faintly hear it in the background.

Out of curiosity, who is that in that gif., and what are they reacting to?

I could be wrong but I think that's Taker being drafted to RAW during the original Brand Split Draft, when Flair was the RAW GM and he and Taker were feuding.

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

The removal of features is annoying.

I actually kinda like the Who Got NXT mode on the last gen version but with everything that got removed I'm boggled how they couldn't get the legit career mode on this game.

25 CAW slots for Next Gen.

Welp, that's me out.

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

@WWEgames how long does the career mode run? Will it just run one show season?

Answer - MyCareer can span up to roughly 15 years - especially if you play through as both a fan favorite or rule breaker!

Wadaseckin....

Does this mean that each is roughly seven years and that you can't turn heel or face for the duration? ...Realistic.

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

@WWEgames is Sid Justice playable or is he just a manager?

Answer - Sid Justice will appear as a referee and is therefore not playable in the game.

HOW DARE THEY!

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

So SmackDown just made a huge deal about 2K15 now being available for PS3 and 360...and they heavily hyped the non-existent My Career mode.

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

Been playing a lot of Virtual Pro Wrestling 2 as of late. There's something really inherently satisfying about battling people on the WCW style Dome ramp in battle royals and knocking people off for eliminations. Also just randomly battling MMA entrants in these matches is bizarrely enjoyable.

Last week, we shared with you the first video for WWE 2K15 Superstar Suite. Today, we know more about the full menu of options that will be available to players on Xbox One and PlayStation 4.

Visual Concepts art director Lynell Jinks says that some long-time features won't be making their way to the new-gen versions of the game, though. The options to create arenas, Divas, championships, and narratives through the story designer will not make the cut for WWE 2K15.

"This decision was extremely difficult, but a necessary one, in order to deliver a more focused and polished game," Jinks writes. "The primary reason we did not announce these changes earlier is due to the team working until the last minute to retain as many features as possible."

The team is adding a fan-requested toolset in the form of the Superstar Studio. This will allow players to update wrestler entrance and in-ring attire to keep them current with movements in the WWE.

While players can upload anything they want, 2K Sports says it has systems in place to flag inappropriate content. The process for uploading an image to the game was also detailed:

-First, go to the “Logo Manager” under Community Creations in the WWE 2K15 main menu;
-You will then be prompted to generate a “Logo Token,” which will show up instantly on screen;
-You’ll then enter the token on our dedicated webpage on the official WWE 2K website, located at wwe.2k.com/wwe2K15logo;
-Now, it’s time to upload your images on this page! By entering your Logo Token, you are granted access to upload up to five images at a time;
-Once the images are uploaded, locate your images under the “GO TO MY LOGOS” option in WWE 2K15 and proceed to download them;
-Each user is given 20 slots for downloaded images or any images uploaded by the community. The pixel dimensions for the images can be up to 512 x 512, but it doesn’t have to be exact — just as long as it’s under those dimensions, the tool will scale it to fit;
-Up to eight different images can be used on your Superstar, but those eight images can be used as many times as you want. Once the image is placed, you can position and scale it.

There is a memory cap for each wrestler. Players will be allotted 128 points (64 layers). These points are shared between entrance and in-ring attire.

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

Also, not that I'm much of a "CAW guy" but wow, I really didn't think that the "no created Diva's" thing would be true. But there you go. Mindboggling.

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

"The primary reason we did not announce these changes earlier is due to the team working until the last minute wanting to retain as many features pre-orders as possible."

The next-gen creation tools look neat though. That Q&A last week seemed to imply they finally are giving the option to change entire attires of Superstars and not just re-paint their "Superstar Threads".

If you're not into yearly roster updates though / seeing how it runs for the first time on new consoles (which is the draw for me, tbh) this one definitely sounds like a "let's wait until they learn from this year's game" deal.
