You can make it as big as possible but it's going to be meaningless if there's nothing to do. It's the same pitfall Pokemon Go and Minecraft suffer from. Minecraft at least was easily moddeable so people were ble to get more and more years from it not to mention the real multiplayer aspects.</p>
  2. So by releasing a game at the standard price point for new games 59.99 USD here that constitutes a triple a game?

     

    D-Lyrium made his point clear when he said that a $60 game would be compared to other $60 games which are going to be mostly AAA games since that's the standard price for them.

     

    If you're releasing a $60 game it has to provide as much content as other $60 games like the ones you mentioned. Otherwise they aren't worth the price and they should have dropped down the price. Even if they are a small studio they can't use that as an excuse when you consider the price.

     

    Not to mention a lot of the hype comes from the director's Peter Molyneux style marketing and interviews.

  8. Hey guys, seen a lot of great work in here and wanted to see if I could get any interest in some screens.

     

    I much prefer a screen featuring "big moments," and here is a list of examples I thought up hastily.

     

    Hogan/Rock staredown at Mania X8

    Shane McMahon's Jump of the Titanton

    Homicide winning the ROH World Title

    Lesnar/Show laying in the broken ring

    The D-X "Tank" Jeep invading WCW

    "That's Gotta be Kane!!"

    Hogan is the Third Man/formation of the nWo

    The reveal of Kishin Liger

    AJ Styles and Nakamura's post-match fistbump at Wrestle Kingdom

    Vader's murderplex on Inoki

    Mania VII Savage & Miss Elizabeth reunite

    SCSA standing before the KotR throne, delivering the 3:16 promo

    Lesnar ends the streak

    Edge celebrating his cashin on John Cena at NYR2006

    Hogan Slams Andre

     

    I'm not asking for any moment in particular, I would just love some loading screens in that sort of theme.

     

    It'll probably be more easier and likely for someone to do them if you link some of the pictures to the list you made. The prep-work is probably the most off-putting thing involved in making these.

Putting the renders on a blue background is the easiest thing to do and knowing how to do it never hurts.</p>
  10. If they can manage 3+ million on Raw and Smackdown after the brand split I think USA would be happy enough. The best thing they could do is is make both shows 2.5 hours so Raw is more palatable to watch live and USA still get their 6 hours of WWE. I have no clue about US TV scheduling, though.

     

    Meltzer has said that USA pays WWE 50 million for the third hour of RAW. I doubt WWE is going to mess with that deal for a long time.

They can and will improve being the premier midcard tag team on Smackdown.</p>

The more useful tools and features you discover the more options are available and it becomes much easier. Then it's just a matter of repetition.</p>

She's really overacting on her role (at least the vocal aspects).</div></blockquote><p> </p><p> Charlotte has always struggled on the mic so having her carry through a long in-ring promo like that was pretty stupid. WWE has a problem of trying to force everyone to do things their way when it is obvious they aren't suited or ready for that kind of thing. It's the same thing that hurt Roman when they tried to make him a pure babyface.</p>

In fact, he definitely carried Big Show to a great match at Extreme Rules 2015.

Show can have great matches if the booking treats him like a giant as in his matches with ADR and Daniel Bryan. Big Show's inconsistent booking is the reason his can have craptastic matches and great ones.</p><p> </p><p> But as for Brock and AJ that was them carrying and Roman being good enough to do his part. Still Roman isn't a bad wrestler but a wrestler with bad booking and weak mic skills for a figurehead to use a TEW16 term.</p>
