Jaded

Yeah, this is a major immersion breaker for me too. Great suggestion, OP!

The main event descriptor just means it's your last segment, your last match is what actually counts as the main event for calculation purposes etc.

Exactly. I don’t understand the desperation some people seem to have to make sure the game DOESN’T improve. Very weird!

First 100 rated angle, as my UC, Hawkeye, Mutant and Papa Swoll talk at each other! 18, then heads, gives me Fat Genes.

Only before a game starts, the in game editor doesn’t let you do so.

<p>Hawkeye and Swoll combine for an incredible main event, scoring 72, with Swoll getting a 96 rated angle to boost the show rating to my first ever 75+. </p><p> </p><p> Roll is 1, letting me get a working agreement with the Zone. Pablo Rodriguez here I come!</p><p> </p><p> And there's Medium, Barnaby vs Papa Swoll taking us there. 20 gets me Straight Edge.</p>

Just thought of this one - using the CVerse Yet To Debut expansion, my owner Robert Montgomery Sr thinks it would be a great idea to hire his son Kyle, but because he's a brawler which is against my owner goals, I'm also getting a warning about that. Perhaps if people have a positive relationship with the owner (or even just certain relationships, like family members) they could be exempt from owner goals?

<p>Booking angles is annoying the heck out of me so I'm putting my main RTG on the backburner for a moment and starting a quick game with my new fed - Impact: MONSTERS of New York!</p><p> </p><p> Yes, Monster Battle. With 90% match ratio and 20-80 in-ring/popularity, it's a breeze to book and it seems like my guy can hopefully start pulling good match ratings relatively quickly.</p><p> </p><p> I got up to Tiny by Sat week 4 Feb, running constant events. Roll is a 48, giving me 'plays legitimate well' and 'explosive ring style' as attributes.</p><p> </p><p> Oscar/Hawkeye beat Mutant/Ade Nelson in a 55 rated match to get us our first show rated 50 or above just after we get on Wrestleworld. Resultant roll is 10, giving me a dirty doctor.</p><p> </p><p> This is followed at the very next show by my UC's first 50+ rated match as he teams with Hawkeye to beat Oscar and Mutant. 42 gives me a boost to babyface performance.</p><p> </p><p> Next up, I hit small. 24 gives me +5 to aerial.</p>

Hey, you need the tech support forum - this is the latest patch thread. It has instructions in it. http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=547178

I THINK someone tested and they're in addition to other workers, not instead.

This just doesn't seem to fit with the default database AT ALL, to be honest. Cat Quine, Donnie J, Champagne Lover, Peter Michaels, Christian Faith, Alex DeColt, Victoria Stone-McFly, Michelle Brendon, Suzue Katayama, El Fuerza, and literally dozens of others young enough to do a job either in the ring or as authority figures are all special circumstances? Just a totally bizarre way to set stuff up.

This is actually what a lot of people are trying to do, you see. There appears to be an issue with the way that the 'left the business' thing works. Just as there was an issue with cinematic matches not working at all until I pointed this out to Adam, who changed it so they did. Just as there was an issue with the momentum not working as he'd intended it to, which he changed when numerous people pointed this out. (Two examples out of dozens.) Do you realise if it wasn't for people pointing out issues with the game during the beta period it would look VERY different from how it currently does?

Sadly not, unless you delete all dojos and performance centres. (Not 100% sure that would work, even; AI feds may be able to create their own.)

Not sure if you're familiar with Adam's games, but just as a heads-up, he quite often changes things in response to people pointing out issues.

I'm wondering if it's a product issue? For RAW, it was terrible at booking B shows despite having a massive roster, none of whom were fatigued. (But did a great job booking A shows.)

I thought you'd have noticed, but I couldn't think of anything else it could be so figured I'd just ask. Will be intrigued to see how the dirt sheet goes!

This is possibly a really dumb question, but your announcer hasn't suddenly left/died, have they? Just asking because huge announcer penalties is one of the few things I could think of that could lower stuff THAT much. Assuming it's not that, perhaps switch dirt sheet on for a show to see what it says?
