Shockmaster

After Wrestlemania XL I think the current era of WWE need a own product in TEW2020. New Champion Cody Rhodes likes the name, “The Renaissance Era” for it. I quickly checked Jan - Apr 2024 WWE RAW, Smackdown and Premium Live Events total running times and match times. My results both: RAW and Smackdown was approx. 35% matches and average match was 10 minutes. Premium Live Events was about 50% matches and average match was 25 minutes. The already in-game "Lighthearted Entertainment" would nail it, but it ask for Comedy matches. Even there is R-Truth, I would not call the current era of WWE comedy. So, I suggest the basic Lighthearted Entertainment but three (3) changes : 1.) instead Matches less than 10 minutes will not be able to achieve world class scores -> Matches less than 15 minutes will not be able to achieve world class scores. 2.) Longer matches will not do well in this environment -> remove 3.) Each show will need at least one match aimed as Comedy -> Each show will need at least one match aimed as Story Telling

I always wondering why it's not possible to fix a venue for TV Shows. It's kind of annoying to select manually the same venue again and again. I think it is more common to have a TV show at the same venue. I remember back in the good old days studio wrestling was something.

Especially in historical / old-school mods I don't like and avoid them. I would love the possibility to switch them off completely.

I'm thinking about the ambitious project to make a historical real life mod. Because there are already many mods and I don't want to create a duplicate or waste my time, I'll just ask you: 1.) is there a need for another mod at all? 2.) which starting point in history is missing and would you like to play as a mod? Thanks for your paticipation in advance!

is Leeroybrown still around and working on this mod? Risky Business 1985 is by far my favorite mod but I edit the origin database similar like outb0undflight did. I hope the mod could be further supported and updated. I mean it just needs little tweaks here or there to make it perfect.

yes, I had the same issue and just learn that it should be solved by the latest retail patch 1.40 (II)

in my opinion the Auto. Booker is unfortunatly very simple and not that smart. I saw so many threads about this tool. If there will be ever another game I hope it can be improved.

Yes! the game requires repetitive activities especially in the Booking screen. This makes it very frustrating sometimes. I wish to be able to make a template out of the Match Types and Road Agent Notes and reuse it. And the Auto. Booker is also quite "simple" and not very smart. IDK how the AI can put together great shows.

i like to start companies from scratch. it's a huge mess when you have 30+ worker negotiations ongoing! Therefore I can just strongly support this one.

I can just agree to this idea! I remember when e.g. Scott Hall & Kevin Nash talked about jumping from WWF to WCW they point out that beside the $ also the reduced schedule was one reason. When company A offer 100k / year but run 100 shows it should be a different compare to company B offer the same 100k / year but run just 50 shows. I'm not sure if the KI is comparing and consider this.

are there any disadvantages in-game to push e.g. a just 19 year old wrestler? I once heard that bad habits can develop. But I don't know the exact age limit and if it's still a thing in TEW2020. I would apprecaite every response.

I also had the same issue and just learn it is related to default matches. Because in this mod all matches are set as default the auto booker use this strange match types. You can simply change in game the default matches. I believe in the screen where booking the match.

I play mainly the 1985 Risky Business Mod (version 4.3). Also I like to play the 1992 Chronicles Mod. BTW: I wish there would be a Mod in between both of them starting in Nov. 1988 when Ted Turner just purchased JCP and change it into WCW.

I also wish for a better autobooker! Also I have to deal with unsuitable match types for the product. It could be also solved by autobooker settings.
