[Official Random Screenshots Thread]

 

This was after Vince McMahaon announced he would retire in one month, and was officially no longer the owner. Pretty great to think of Dean Ambrose giving Mr. McMahon a bunch of crap about not splitting the bill. Or that he would share a rental car in the first place!

[TEW2020 Discussion Thread]

<p>Dusting off my account just to post my excitement for this. I am VERY glad to hear that this is an ambitious build, as software has changed a lot in the past 10 years and I am glad to have the opportunity to enjoy a more modern game.</p><p> </p><p> I would have been disappointed if the screen resolution stayed the same. Almost everyone has HD screen resolution now and the TEW2016 screen is looking very small these days.</p><p> </p><p> I have been playing since the Extreme Warfare 9000 days, through EWD, the classic EWR, and have paid full price for TEW 2004, TEW 2005, TEW 2007, TEW 2008, TEW 2010, TEW 2013 and TEW 2016 and am looking forward to TEW 2020. I was just thinking about a new game in this series the other day and wasn't sure if a new game in the series would be made ever again, and if I would cough up more money if it was the same exact engine with a new coat of paint again. Not that it isn't great, but its that classic Madden 2016 vs Madden 2017 argument.</p><p> </p><p> I am glad to see development continue on this series and for Adam to rebuild the games engine again. It is challenging but I think necessary to keep it modern, like the jump from EWD to EWR and the jump from EWR to TEW 2014.</p><p> </p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-username="shawn michaels" data-cite="shawn michaels" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="46105" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>What i hope for is that with this interesting change, that might make growing and battling the AI harder, hopefully, we get to a point where no company is restricted of offering written contracts, regardless of size. If i create a wrestling company in my backyard, I can sign my next door neighbour to a written contract, if i want to. Yes, an extremely analogy, but makes the point clear. Obviously despite benefiting of signing him on a written deal (if he wants to, of course. But nobodies would love the security of a written deal.) I will have to deal with the disadvantages as well. Particularly the financial ones, that can end my business fairly quickly if not well managed. <p> </p><p> If size is finally evolving, so should contracts.</p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> I agree with this 100%. If a small company has a lot of money, a rich investor perhaps, this should be an option. Of course, for <strong>MOST</strong> small companies, this should be a bad decision punishable by going into debt, but if a worker does the math and realizes he can make the same or slightly less money without running himself ragged each month, he might take a written deal with a small company. Or maybe just the biggest star is written, to stop those "Cult" size companies from stealing your main draw at a premium.</p>
