WWE Smackdown vs. Raw 2010

[King Cucaracha]

Had a weird glitch starting Orton's RTWM last night. Voiceovers were fine until the first scene with DiBiase & Rhodes going to Randy's lockerroom.. and no voices. Was fine after that, though. Weird.

The voices were in Orton's head.

I was laughing my ass off at JBL's video package featuring clips from the PS1 era SmackDown's and such. Nice touch there

[DrVenkman PhD]

So has anyone else done Mickie's RTWM yet? I'm still only about halfway through but

Spoiler

it seems like they're doing a direct copy of Mickie/Trish, only with Natalya playing the role of Mickie, and Trish playing the role of Mickie

Just seems really lazy

Spoiler

If you take the "Natalya" path when you get the choice, the game at least directly tells you this is a repeat of this. Mickie realizes this is what she did to Trish and figures it's cool to be friends with Natalya.

 

[Matt Young]

What the fuck? I've created and saved 3 separate storylines, and still no achievement.

Poor Natalya. Rejected by the only other crazy lesbian in WWE.

Did you finalize? That's how I got it.

There's two achievements I'm having problems with. One is the Training Mode one, because I can't get my opponent to do a diving move so I can reverse it.

The other is the one for Championship Scramble, not getting pinned after becoming interim champion at the start. Do you have to start as the champion? Does it matter the order you come in? Does the difficulty matter (I know the other Championship Scramble Achievement is Legends Difficulty)? Does the title matter (I tried with Women's and Champion of Champions, no luck)?

 

[Obi Chris Kenobi]

I've got the game, but I think I'm going to return it and buy it in a few months at half the price. Seems its pretty much the same as all other SDvRaws.

 

[DrVenkman PhD]

I get a cheap thrill out of assigning people no longer in the company to the WCW brand. Same as last year. I do like the "Rivals" deal though - I made Kennedy's enemies Shawn, Hunter, Orton, and Cena.

Well i got the achievement by entering as christian, and getting the only pin in the match.

What title, what difficulty, was he the champion, and what entry number?

 

[Sabre]

It doesnt matter what difficulty, but i belive the nature of the achievement is fight for any title and get the only pin in the match.

But if you wanna do it exactly like i did.

Easy > Christian > ECW title > Participant 1

Figured it would be the easiest way to get a pin before the ring fills up.

Edit: In regards to the Defend Title in Scramble match in Legendary, i dunno if this is well known to the smackdown games, but you can turn the AI reversal rate to non existant and set the gameplay to legendary and whoop all sorts of ass.

 

[DrVenkman PhD]

The first match I did was a 5 minute Scramble for the ECW title - Dreamer vs. Goldust vs. Shelton vs. Austin vs. Christian - which ended in a draw. Footage of this exists on the hit Highlight Reel film "Boring" by TSMsDrVenkman.

 

[KingPK]

I uploaded a simple two scene playlet starring Santino and Beth. Look for SantinoCar from PKIsLive. Makes me laugh, at least.

Are all the moves unlocked from the start? I was going through the moveset editor and I didn't see any greyed out "Locked" spaces.

 

[DrVenkman PhD]

Going through the sound effects ("female groan" and such), I thought of making an extremely vulgar reel culminating with the soundbyte they give you of MVP's theme, "I'M COMING". Then I realized you can't have men and women in the ring at the same time.

Nope. There are no sliders in the game this year.

Except for the ones that are there. Which is all of them.

 

[Sabre]

BOOYAKA BOOYAKA.

 

[Baby Shoes]

Holy recycled commentary! I had heard there was somethere was some repeated commentary, which I was kinda indifferent about, but I was doing the Road to Wrestlemania as Edge and when I hit a big boot on someone JR mentioned that Snitsky just took off his opponents head with that boot. Not only is it completely the wrong person, but Snitsky isn't even in the game. At least we know who's fault it wasn't...

Question about HBK's RtWM:

Spoiler

Is it supposed to be a failure story? I beat the crap out of JBL, then all of the sudden he became a reversal machine. I'm inclined to think you're destined to lose since, unless there's something I don't know, only he had the ability to use the "I Quit" microphone (and they had recorded speech for Shawn to not give up / give up), and there's a big ending for losing. It just seems odd.

 

[vivisectvi]

Anyone else noticing the retarded load times when you use a "superstar thread" for one of the existing wrestlers? Pretty weird for a simple palette swap.

 

[DrVenkman PhD]

I've had no such problems (that I noticed) with the 360. I made some attires then matched up White Knight Undertaker (which doesn't really work when you can't change his hat and jacket) and Gayne (Kane, but with pink tights with a purple barbed wire design) and had no load time issue.

I won the match, hold the microphone and do the pinning motion to win and unlockables.

Weird - maybe it's PS3 specific.

Apparently I didn't read the text telling me to do that before the match. I played through again from the point where the story splits and if you take the "No" option, when it comes time for Mania, Shawn takes the time to tell you about it before the match.

 

[KingPK]

I had Cole call R-Truth "MVP". Guess they all look alike to him.

Spoiler

Man, the Mickie RtWM is fucking dull if you pick Natalya. I actually had a pretty decent match with Beth at the end, though. I hope picking Kendrick is a more interesting path.

The Royal Rumble is better, but the new mini-games pose their own problems, specifically the "mash the BUTTon that is lit up" one. Even if I purposefully hit the wrong BUTTon the animation continues until I hit the right BUTTon a couple of times. I had someone helping me and I didn't even have to press a BUTTon at all!

EDIT: I noticed when starting the Storyline Editor they mention that if you have any profanity in your dialogue it will be changed to **** if you post it online. I wonder who's job it was to enter every single bit of profanity they could think of into the filter and how long it took.

 

[Toxxic]

Anyone know how to get the different abilities in career mode?

I think that's out this year. If you go to My WWE > Superstar Management, you can manage everyones abilities in there - both created and default.

 

[Molotov The Bear]

No they still have abilities, you have to unlock them for CAWS. I dont know exactly how to get them but I know its similar to last year's where you had to do certain things in matches X amount of times.

Also, has anyone played through the CAW RTWM? The ending is hilariously awesome.

 

[KingPK]

You can play your CAW in any mode to build them up. It's not restricted to Career mode this year.
