  1. I've seen others mention this, but in my WWE game when I replicated Wrestlemania my whole roster now has low morale from only being on one of the nights.

     

    Is there a way to give an across the board bonus to raise morale or to edit morale for my roster? Doing bonuses one at a time is going to take forever. I also don't want to just start the game over either.

     

    The easy fix is to have hype videos on Night 1 for the matches on Night 2, and then do recap videos of the matches from Night 1 on Night 2. That way, everyone booked is (technically) on both shows and shouldn't face a morale hit.

  2. Another thing I have success with is changing how many episodes are taped at a time.

     

    I don't like the rigid schedule of Tape 4 shows, then do an event and repeat. So, I'll schedule my major events, and just alter how many episodes are taped at a time when necessary.

     

    I might start with 4 weeks of tapings, then switch it to 3 for the next set so that I can have 7 episodes lead to the event, instead of forcing 8 or having an event that takes place between airings of taped shows.

  4. I think that an option to have a hiring rule like "No Exclusive Contracts for Out-of-Area Workers" would be a good addition.

     

    That would mean that anyone who lives outside of Japan wouldn't be able to sign an exclusive contract with a Japanese company... but if they do most of their work there and end up relocating, that would open up the ability to sign them.

     

    Think someone like Chase Owens for that one. Brought in as a foreign worker, but now does the bulk of his work for New Japan exclusively. So, he would have been on a handshake deal for the beginning of his term there, but somewhere along the way, he started taking more dates there than in the States (which, in game would mean that he would likely relocate to Japan), and now he's a mainstay with the company.

  5. I would argue that it works absolutely fine.

     

    If for instance, Kenny Omega is signed to a written contract with New Japan in your game... and then you create AEW and sign him to an exclusive written contract... what happens is that the value you get in the interim for having the exclusive written deal is that not only will Omega not be able to re-sign with New Japan when his deal with them expires, but he will not sign with any other companies beyond the moment you sign him exclusively.

  7. hello bhoys & ghirls!

     

    how can i book a match like La Parka vs Randy Savage with DDP under the La Parka mask in the end? or Dean Malenko under the Ciclope mask?

     

    thank you in advance!

     

    The power of imagination, really. You'd just book DDP Vs Randy Savage.

     

    I suppose that you could create a new mask and alter ego for DDP in this instance... call him "La Parka" in quotes or using some other way to signify that he's a fake. It's just unnecessary and doesn't add anything really.

     

    Personally, I'd book it like normal, but change the match name to Randy Savage Vs "La Parka".. and then run an angle after the match where the reveal happens if you'd like.

  10. With a company like WLW that has tour shows and storylines, would the storylines be advanced during tour shows? It seems like the answer would be no since they aren't major shows but it seems off only advancing them at big events.

     

    Using New Japan as an example, I would say that stories are definitely advanced throughout tour shows, but the major notes of the stories would be saved for the larger events.

  11. I think I'm okay with the way things are, really.

     

    I mean, loyalty in wrestling is almost a one-way street. If the worker is loyal to a company, they're less likely to leave for any reason other than completely awful morale... but there aren't many workers out there whose company would actively keep them on payroll if they aren't providing anything worth the money.

     

    For that reason, having companies let loyal workers go to save money or make room on the roster for someone with better value isn't unrealistic.

     

    That being said, if it isn't already the case, loyal workers should be kept above non-loyal workers if they provide similar value to the company.

  12. It's propably basic question but:

    What is match focus (regular focus, three ring circus, main event spotlight, ensemble) and angle focus (regular, tight, highlights, consistent)

    Is it just for auto booker or does it have effect on rating of my show?

     

    Match and Angle focus is absolutely for the player. When selecting the ones you want for that, read the blurbs about what they mean, think about how you book your shows and choose the one that will be most favorable to you.

     

    Each focus can make or break your shows and company, depending on how you book and what you have to work with.

     

    For example, if your roster more or less sucks, but you've got a handful of great main event talent, then you will for sure want the Main Event Focus, because the bulk of your show will be rated based on how your main event does.

  13. <p>I would heavily suggest mass editing worker personalities to be professional (or none) for anyone in the database that you haven't personally set.</p><p> </p><p>

    One of the things about converting from 2016 is that there are so many negative personalities in the database. I have found playing as smaller indies very difficult to do, because the negative personalities run amok on the backstage area.</p>

  14. I’m pretty sure they just work for the larger company (company prestige may modify it slightly), however if that company does not use the particular worker that night they may be available to you (I haven’t tested this, just thought I saw it mentioned elsewhere on the forum).

     

    I can confirm that this is the case.

     

    In my 2004 JAPW game, I planned out my most recent event with the understanding that my top referee and Chris Candido would both be unavailable to me due to their work for WWC.

     

    When I got to the event, the ref was unavailable, but Candido happened to be available for me to use.

  15. Being able to tape television shows has been an awesome addition to TEW 2020, but I was thinking about how ECW and other companies used to do it and found myself wondering if that might be a viable addition to the game.

     

    Basically, ECW would pick and choose matches from their live events and air them on Hardcore TV because the live events themselves did not broadcast. So I was wondering if it might be possible to do the same thing in TEW... where you run your live events, and then can pick which matches and segments from those events to air on what weeks, and then fill in the gaps with outside of the ring segments like videos.

     

    For historical gaming purposes, the user currently would have to choose whether to run live events and Hardcore TV and ignore that Hardcore TV was made up of matches from those events... or choose to run one or the other and make some necessary adjustments.

     

    I think a feature like this would be great, especially for companies that don't have any broadcasting for their events.

  17. If it's at all possible to do, I think the best method would be to have a user-set ratio for Local to Foreign talents.

     

    A lot of Japanese companies do have gaijin workers under exclusive long-term deals, so stopping that from happening in order to lower the amount of foreign workers being brought in would stop things like the rise of Kenny Omega from happening in the game.

     

    So a ratio would seem to work well. You could set a company at 90:10 or 80:20 in regards to Local:Foreign workers. That way they can still bring people in, but you don't look at Pro Wrestling NOAH a year after starting your game and wonder why it seems to be Ring of Honor, with some WWE cast-offs and whatever Japanese talent hadn't been let go.
