havok Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 I have heard you can talk someone out of retirment. Is this true? I would really like to. In MY TNA game Sting just announced he is going to retire at the end of the month but I wanted to keep him around for at least 3 more months. So can you perswade people not to retire? When I go to business it says he has already announced retirment so you can not do anything with him. Help is appriciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The-619 Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Ummm I'm not really sure but I've never done it or heard of it before so I'd say no but I'm not entirely sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hurricanendp Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 it's no longer an option, apparently it was in TEW04, but i never played that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zobeto227 Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 I'm not 100% sure but I think that you can still have wrestlers compete in the ring even after they have retired. I remember hearing about this (I haven't done it yet myself), barring any sort of serious injury that would limit what they could do in the ring... I think you can still have them work in the ring if you want. So, Sting should be just fine for using as long as he is under contract and without any sort of serious injury!

hurricanendp Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 you can still use him yeah, but i think the matches suffer a little because he's "retired" You could always go into the ingame editor, set his status back to active/semi-active whichever it is currently at until you've finished using him, then just set him back to retired when you're done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColtCabana Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Yeah, the matches and segments are terrible. I set Austin to Semi-Active just so his segments would be rated better, but as always using the editor is up to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anubis Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 I'm still using Jack Brisco a little post-retirement, but I haven't seen my ratings suffer for it . . . Sometimes retired people just start to slip in popularity, so I suppose that could be what actually causes the ratings decline. I dunno, really. One thing, though, is that their style is set to "Never Wrestlers", so that could be the issue. Just edit the style back to what it always was and do whatever you like, you should be okay as long as popularity stays up and you don't over-expose.

I set Austin to Semi-Active just so his segments would be rated better, but as always using the editor is up to you.[/QUOTE] I haven't seen this. I keep several retired wrestlers on my roster, to work dark matches with my 'developing talent' (basically, like trainers) and I haven't noticed the match ratings being below what I'd generally expect. In fact, in a product where in-ring performance is paramount, I CAN'T use this strat as often as I'm used to because the retired worker (Jaguar Yokota, Yumi Fukawa, Momoe Nakanishi) is so talented that they bloat the match rating purely because of their own skill. I don't think you can talk someone out of retirement like you can talk them out of a hiatus though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havok Posted August 7, 2007 Author Share Posted August 7, 2007 thanks for the help guys. Remianen how do you talk someone out of hiatus? When I go to the business section it says they are on hiatus and can't negotiate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hurricanendp Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 depends on what size you're company is, you can only talk them out of hiatus if you're National or above i believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're National or larger, they'll talk to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacko00 Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 I used a retired Ric Flair and he did allright Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remianen Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 [QUOTE=Jacko00;276208]I used a retired Ric Flair and he did allright[/QUOTE] In my AJW game, Lioness Asuka just announced her retirement (at age 41). When the month is up, she's going to become a trainer and road agent and I don't expect her usual B-/B rated matches to slip all that much outside of the fact that she'll be wrestling far less talented workers.
