On the main pre-booking page, the first list of events is ordered chronologically, with events that occur more often (Weekly/TV) I believe on the top. On the same page, the list of what event to move a pre-booking to is ordered alphabetically. In the pre-booking for a match itself, the selection list of what event to make it for is ordered alphabetically. The first option (chronologically) seems preferable to me since I don't necessarily memorize all the event names and when they are happening. I guess I could get used to the alphabetical list. Either way, they should all be the same.

<p>Is the corollary to this that they also stop automatically learning languages when working in a region, at least most of the time? As it stands, they seem to gain passable knowledge pretty quickly and fluency outrageously quickly.</p><p> </p><p> If I remember correctly (I haven't played it in about 7 years or so), but learning languages in FM (especially becoming fluent) is at least a slightly more realistically slow process.</p>

You don't "assign" a push anymore. You just actually push them with strong booking and prominent card position.

I had someone in 2020 change their style to Comedy. I don't remember who though. It didn't necessarily fit my product though.

I had no idea this was a thing in any version. Since it appears to be put back by the new patch, I'm kind of glad it got lost so I could see this.

Style used to have a weird impact on auto-push in 2016 (I say "weird" because it didn't affect matches/segments), but that's been removed. I think it's mainly cosmetic now. Size and body type impact the stats you said, and more importantly Star Quality. Flabby is strictly worse than toned/ripped. The downside of asking for a size change is that if you ask someone to size up, they can sometimes end up becoming flabby. Their matches also get a slight hit while the change is taking place. Not sure there's any downside to asking them to get more built as you couldn't do it in the last version so I haven't seen any ill-effects yet.

It also doesn't know what show each match is for and pre-booking has mechanics where that matters now.

<p>Started over since I had a bunch of workers I shouldn't have had without travel costs and about an extra million dollars, so we'll see how that goes.</p><p> </p><p> In the first iteration, the Lions of Japan got kind of hosed. Shinji got injured, Shozo quit, Shinji got injured again, then Shinji quit.</p>

It depends on what change and the nature of it. One of the changes involved the starting momentum trend of all workers in the game, which could only kind of be updated via a remote assistance code. Most changes just take effect starting immediately. Although, any consequences of the bugs would still be there so in some cases you may want to start a new game anyway. You can look at the list of fixes in Tech Support forum.

That's good to know. Why do announcers and refs get cold momentum though?

I was about to post just this. Not sure why announcers and refs are losing momentum.

<p>Only things I have off are:</p><p> </p><ul><li>New style colored lists<br /></li><li>Mandatory Pre-Booking for TV<br /></li><li>Industry & Economy<br /></li></ul><p></p><p> </p><p> I haven't actually done a TV Show in this version yet, but conceptually I don't think mandatory pre-booking makes sense for something that airs weekly.</p><p> </p><p> I just haven't found Industry and Economy to add much to the game. Maybe if I played with National/Multi-national sized companies it might be more interesting. Otherwise it's just numbers that multiply everything for all companies in the same area, which doesn't feel like it really adds much to the games I'm playing.</p>

Is there any way to create a new entry in any of the things from the In-Game editor? Specifically I'd like to create an Era, but it really doesn't seem like you can add a new anything.

I'd probably request a variant on Comic Book Lucha Libre with Eye Candy added in as an expectation.

Wow, that's pretty much exactly what I had in mind.

I kind of like it. It makes it feel like the companies have been making decisions more inline with what the player might do.

Doesn't the game think most of those are squash matches?

This seems particularly useful now that who this applies to can be different per individual wrestler instead of just down the line of gimmick types like before.

That's an interesting example because the heuristic that decision fails is actually one the Release button passes. It's very hard to accidentally click the release button where it's currently located whereas it would be very easy to accidentally have a knife related accident if they were kept under the couch.

Isn't it the specific personality traits? So a guy who's really high on the mercenary slider gets the Mercenary personality type even if he was somehow a "Very Positive" influence in 2016?

How about Clash of Gods., a Scandinavian company where the wrestlers are the Norse gods.

I'm pretty sure Zelina, Sable, and Sunny didn't really do that other stuff until they became over from being at ringside.

I was flipping through company products and noticed this in NYCW

The region description practically dares you to start a company in Tasmania.
