This....this right here. I RARELY touch TEW20 as I find 16 more enjoyable. I'm actually planning on working on a personal project where I basically place the 20 database in 16 lol.

Somebody played the hell out of GM mode on the old SvR games back in the day huh? And ya know what...there’s nothing wrong with borrowing for those classics. The minute I read it I immediately was like SvR07 right there 🤣

This right here! I can't tell you guys how many times I've had storylines planned out in my mind and even typed out in a notepad or word only to get bored and start over. That's my biggest flaw as I ALWAYS start a new save when I see something that could be better whether its with my own promotion or an AI controlled promotion

Why do people paint players who are here more so for the fantasy than the grind as cheaters or something lol. Let’s be honest people options are the spice of life in a sandbox type game. I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again realism is fine it’s great but it isn’t for everyone and despite the shortcomings it may have had in areas I feel 2016 handled it better. If your there for fantasy you can spam whatever ya want and it you’re there for realism and want to play the “right way” you could watch that slow burn with satisfaction. This year that option is gone it’s either grind it out or grind it out which is fine for some. However, until the fantasy returns without me having to dip into the editor and whatever else I’ll stick to 16 for a bit more.(sadly) (Maybe that could be appease with an option for pop for workers like companies have with natural growth limits? Just a thought)

Man I’ve seen huge drops and huge gains but only from the AI controlled rosters. I can’t get my roster to fluctuate on the high end but losing pop is a specialty I seem to possess lol. I wish there was a pop option for workers like there are for companies sometimes ya don’t want the grind you just wanna play ya know.

Hey no such thing as cheating in a sandbox game as TEW 🤣

I agree with smartman here. Also, what I found out was it’s incredibly easy to gain pop in a perf company but it’s next to impossible in a pure pop fed and that’s why I don’t play 20 as often as I’d like too.

Man I have been playing an imported version of this mod with tweaks here and there for awhile now and I'm glad to see it's officially been moved to TEW20(Despite me not quite grasping the game totally yet). Maybe I'll share the 20+ characters I've made for it back on TEW16 if anyone is interested in the slight spin-off I had going on. Thanks again for your hard work

I converted an efganic mod Not Ready For Prime Time. I had tweaked to make another medium/Cult level company active at the start with it's own roster created by me with it's own stories etc. I have simulated 10 years and had come to see that the first inductee to the Hall of Immortals was a female worker I created named Katya Zomlodchikova. Imagine my shock and excitement when I saw that. The to top it off there are roughly three to four more workers whom I've made that are future inductees or are on the cusp of being inducted. Hell one guy has won wrestler of the year seven times despite not even being the best worker . Gotta say I'm having a ton of fun watching this world unfold and may have to add and tweak this world even more so and run it again for another 10 years. Oh and Katya is an 11x women's champion. She's a 5x champ in the first ever promotion and a 6x champ in the promotion I had made and there is another woman named Sable who is a 9x champion across both promotions and she's only 31 with a good 8 to 10 years left in her. I am too damn excited with the way to world is coming together and wish I could share this with others to see what experience they have with it.

Alright I’m just go ahead and throw this out here. There is nothing wrong with the current HOI system and I wasn’t personally calling the system flawed or anything I think it’s fine. My issue lies with the database and if you look at how the default database is setup then it is in fact impossible for women to get in on their own being AI controlled. What woman is going to win wrestler of the year in the cverse? Trust no woman’s coming home with that award at game start. With organic mods like Effiverse makes it’s easier because there’s much more of a clean slate. Therefore, the actual system is fine and always has been. If your a big promotion who features a women’s championship... if that title is labeled as anything but primary it is impossible for them to gain a percentage to the HOI. A floating championship based on the picture in this thread gives 5% and which means they’d have to win that title 20x. If the system still works like in the past then eventually winning that championship will be less important if done a lot which means it may take even more than that. In the end I thing women should either have their own with a different type of criteria or something OR they need to have other things that factors in just for them. I’m currently playing an old effganic mod that I’ve tweaked and broadened and I too have a woman whose going into the HOI but it’s because the women’s championship is set to primary. I don’t know just think it needs a look is all I was getting at. I’m not big on it mirroring real life as far as the state of women’s wrestling but there are women who should be able to get in or at least let us edit the HOI in game otherwise we’d be forced to do it through pre game editing.

What I've noticed in these last few games of TEW is that women will never make it into the hall of the immortals unless a player is controlling an all women's fed or they put their women's championship as primary. I don't know if it's doable but I think it'd be great if women were able to get percentages towards HOI for being female wrestler of the year. Also I think it'd be great if women who works for a national company wins their women's title it also gives a percentage maybe on a far smaller scale than men. On the other hand you could make it to where women in an all women's fed who wins the main title also gets a percentage to the HOI on the smaller scale of things as well. Lastly, possibly give women their own Hall of Immortals with their own unique criteria or something. I don't know I simply feel that its nearly impossible for them to get into the HOI.

What I've come to realize is that sometimes when people throw the word exploit around or talk about things that should be fixed its very so-so to me. On one hand you have people who play to just have fun and fantasy book while being gamey and getting whomever they like to the top as quickly as possible without the use of an editor. On the other you have people who are gung ho about the realism the game provides and or needs and that's how they have fun with the game. Lately what I've noticed is that those who have a more gamey playstyle... their voices are usually drowned out by those who prefer realism or playing the game the "right" way. I believe its because those who want more of a sim are much more vocal about their dislikes and likes while the other side is very hush hush. Adam only sees one side of the argument majority of the time which is why I believe the game has drifted in the direction its currently going in. It's not that us gamey players are being disenfranchised...its that we rarely if ever speak up. Also, when we do speak up we have some people beat us over the head with the don't like don't buy or the its a simulator play it that way type of deal. At some point in time sim lovers have taken ownership in a way of what TEW is supposed to be completely forgetting that it's two types of players with the TEW franchise. It's just sad that one side of the spectrum is being left behind. That blame can be placed on all shoulders not just one side. It's a problem I don't see ever being fixed personally. This isn't an attack on those who enjoy the sim side of things as that's your right as a consumer. I've spent my 35, I enjoy certain aspects of the game, but at the end of the day this version just isn't my cup of tea and that is Fine. It is ok for people not to be in love with the new game especially as paying customers. Everyone should respect everyone's opinions whether they agree or not and for the most part we do and that's why I come here everyday to web stalk . All I can say is to my more sandbox, gamey, or whatever you'd like to call yourself type of players is to speak up in the suggestion thread or whatever thread possible. Don't be discouraged by possible responses to your opinions and feelings. That is why it appears we've been left behind in some way is because we aren't as vocal.

AMW is by far my favorite company in CV97 so I have to go ahead and put my bid in for a character to be made. Kenneth Evenrud He's 20yr old rookie that knows absolutely nothing about wrestling. He was forced into the business by his prick of a dad and neighborhood crap owner, Trenton Evenrud. Although he doesn't know the first thing about wrestling he has the body of a greek god and oozes charisma and those are his only redeeming qualities. He is being primed to be pushed down the throats of the AMW fans(if there are any) and this is rubbing the roster the wrong way and Ken already has heat on him. Nice kid, crap dad, undeserved push, and is hated by all except Rev. What could possibly go wrong? I was originally gonna make him an A hole like his did, but I though it'd be more interesting if he was a good kid reaping the consequences of being Trenton's kid.

I feel we are kindred spirts trapped on a sinking ship . There are a lot of new things about the new game that are great. My only issue is I feel people who have a gamey playstyle is at a disadvantage. This game is just garnered towards the serious "book it right" kind of players which is fine. Like I said I have some saves where I play like that, but why penalize the people who play in an unrealistic way. The game dictates the fun some people are allowed to have. Maybe I'm part of the problem too Benji, but what can we do Edit: The sinking ship is in regards to players who prefer 2016, a gamey playstyle, players stuck in the past, etc. Didn't want people thinking I was referring to the franchise as a sinking ship.

My enthusiasm to play this game has severely waned to the point I'm back on TEW2016. I don't know what it is but it's been difficult for me to get into this years game. I understand the game is a simulator and always has been, but at the same time its still a game at the end of the day. I use to be able to have my serious saves and my bs saves where I'd just game the system and sometimes my "gamey" saves would end up being more fun eventually. This year I feel like all saves are pretty much the same. Yes I can give myself money and edit pop and whatnot...but that is unfulfilling for me personally as I'd rather gain the pop myself no matter what means I take to get there. I feel that TEW has catered in a way more towards the serious player with this iteration of the game which I suppose is fine, but in the past it felt that it was more even between the two playstyles. Maybe I'm just rambling on and at the same time I haven't been able to get past the first six month's in many saves so maybe there are things I'm missing. I currently have a serious save with MAW and a gamey save with a custom fed, but the gamey save is pretty much bleh. Maybe I'll deep dive in the settings again.

I’m here for Byron lol. I love what you’ve done with him and sadly it fits the image of him I had in my mind.

Willsky? I love you!!! I have read this thing from page one to now and I Haven't been this interested in a diary since those legendary SWF diaries from back in the day. From the storylines, to the backstage interactions, and the matches I am completely in awe of your talent and incredibly jealous. Keep doing what your doing and you have a reader for life in any diary you start with any company. Side Note: NO NICOOOOOO!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOO!!! Cheers to the future of OLLIE

I know the push function is gone, but would there be a way to let you personally tick what box you'd like to use a worker for? For example say I wanted to bring in silver shark for a one off...even though he doesn't really have wrestler ticked as a role why not at least let me click the wrestler tab for him for that show to have the one off and send him on his way. I know some may say its gamey but at the end of the day TEW2020 is game. There are vets who have pop no matter how small that can be vital to a tiny company and I don't get why the ability to use a retired worker for a one off isn't viable. It was just a thought don't mind me

Am I the only one who dislikes the fact that I can't use retired workers for one off matches on a one appearance deal? I mean what's the harm in me bringing in Everest for a 6 min match against Bradley Blaze to build him up more and place him solidly in the main event. I dislike it but ah well what can ya do right

Thank you sooooooo much!!!!

Does anyone have it for tew16? I went to an old thread but the link is dead <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/frown.png.e6b571745a30fe6a6f2e918994141a47.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

I’ve seen some people be upset with not being able to decide the match/angle ratio and I’d like to point out that there is a quick fix. Go to the options and deselect enable match ratios and you’ll have the freedom to book whatever ratio you want. I ask that people try and relax just a tad as this is the beta and some of the things that are complained/commented on may be fixable through the option I’d say just go and peak to see. If it isn’t fixable through the option then wait for the actual release and the subsequent patches that’ll follow.

Has anyone else noticed that tv shows for the big three only pull in like 1500 to like 3000 for tv? That kinda took me out of it from a visual and immersive point. For people who play RW mods I can see them being a bit put off by only getting 2000 people for an a show so I’ll keep going through to see why that is. Other than that I’m liking it

I’ve been tinkering with the effiverse NRFPT mod and the guy I set up to be an eventual figure head died 3 months after debuting lol. It’s not funny but man was I pissed in this testing run.

Well DB, I'm all for whatever you decide. I don't really understand the hoop and holler for women's wrestling. I also think WWE is very hypocritical with that women's revolution crap. If we're all honest TNA's women division carried that company for like two years and we all ate it up . Now if we limit it to a simple revolution for women in wwe and not the industry then I could see it. However, every mod doesn't HAVE to have a ton of women to have a women's scene if it doesn't fit or if it'd be forced and ill concieved. Anyway, if I had to suggest something I'd simply say have fun with it CV97 is your mod and your world that just so happens to have been inspired by CV cannon. At the end of the day it isn't 100% official cannon and to be stuck on cannon is a disservice to all the great things you may want to implement. All change isn't bad so just go with your gut on this one DB.
