TEW2020 Product Suggestion Thread
Shockmaster replied to Adam Ryland's topic in Total Extreme Wrestling 2020 Suggestions
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.

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!

Risky Business - 1985
Shockmaster replied to leeroybrown's topic in Total Extreme Wrestling 2020 Mods
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. -
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.

Rival Bid Emails
Shockmaster replied to MaximumZero's topic in Total Extreme Wrestling 2020 Suggestions
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. -
Date Limited Contracts
Shockmaster replied to Historian's topic in Total Extreme Wrestling 2020 Suggestions
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. -
Push Young Wrestlers?
Shockmaster posted a topic in Total Extreme Wrestling 2020 General Discussions
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. -

Risky Business - 1985
Shockmaster replied to leeroybrown's topic in Total Extreme Wrestling 2020 Mods
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. -
Autobooker Improvement
Shockmaster replied to CrazyLi's topic in Total Extreme Wrestling 2020 Suggestions
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. -
the Angle Writer is no way to do that? You can name the Angles "Promo Worker A", "Promo Worker B",... and save them (Kept in the Database). And personaly I use mostly the "Freestly Angle" : simply put in the Worker A / B and on what they are rated.

Rivals on the Network
Shockmaster replied to The Blonde Bomber's topic in Total Extreme Wrestling 2020 Suggestions
at the Editor you can modify the Broadcaster and set a maximum limits for not only the Companies but even the Broadcast Slots. There is also a possibility for mass edit. So, no need to go trough them one by one. Would this work (at least for new games) or did I misunderstand the issue? -
TEW2020 Product Suggestion Thread
Shockmaster replied to Adam Ryland's topic in Total Extreme Wrestling 2020 Suggestions
I've no clever name yet but I'm looking for a product in between Classic Sports Entertainment and Attitude/Crash TV. It's mainly Attitude/Crash TV product but higher match ratio like Classic Sports Entertainment. And I like to be more flexible what match aims to use. my suggestion is like below : Fans will expect to be 80% matches and 20% angles Fans will expect TV shows to be 65% matches and 35% angles Matches are rated on a ratio of between 40:60 and 60:40 in-ring action / popularity depending on what gets the best rating Fans will be put off by match types that are too extreme Matches less than 15 minutes will not be able to achieve world class scores Deathmatches will get severely penalised Dangerous match set ups will be penalised All workers will be expected to be using a gimmick or there will be a large penalty Fans will expect there to be lots of ongoing storylines Major matches will be penalised if they don't have an associated storyline Each show will need at least three different match aims to be used (Regular, Work The Crowd, Calm The Crowd, and Lift The Crowd do not count toward the total!) The company will be attractive to sponsors Attendance levels are very strongly affected by the state of the wrestling industry Using stunt bumps give boosts to segments but fans do not like to see crazy bumps Most Comedy based gimmicks cannot be used by Stars or Major Stars Having a wrestler be forced to unmask will add some heat to a segment Having someone shaved bald as a forfeit can add a little heat to a segment if there is such a product already in the game and I missed it until now, please let me know. Thank you! -
More ways to filter Broadcasters
Shockmaster replied to triplexpac's topic in Total Extreme Wrestling 2020 Suggestions
I feel you bro! In this broadcaster search box is for sure space for a few other filters: 1.) you got my total extreme support to search coverage size like ..., Small, Medium,... And I have also another two mind blowing suggestions to make filtering broadcasters great again: 2.) search owner / media groups e.g. in many old mods WCW is owned by Turner. If you are not familiar what broadcaster belong to Turner: good luck to search in game! 3.) also what I feel annoying when company willing to negotiate but I can't because e.g. "maximum companies reached". I like to suggest not only willing to negotiate but also able to negotiate. That's a 1-2-3 count ... your winners: The Suggestions by pinfall - because of match stipulation they have to be implemented. -
