Sigilistic Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Awesome! Turning on all areas was cumbersome but felt more realistic. This new negotiation model is an excellent improvement and will save on the load times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harts4Life Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Okay, so first we get a calendar that shows when people aren't available, now we can negotiate to bring people from another game area into ours ... excellent ... add in being able to negotiate with workers on written contracts with another company within the 28 day negotiation period that their employer gets, and talent exchanges being based on relative overness (hello trading someone like Cameron Vessey for Samoan Machine in INSPIRE) instead of solely the overness of the worker you're trying to trade for, in the game area the other promotion is based in, and our roster management problems are over!

juggaloninjalee Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 This new feature is definately one of my favorites. Now as TCW I can shortlist some guys in Japan and such. Then when they are free snatch them up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Self Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Anything that allows you to further interact and affect the world is fine by me. I just hope it isn't [I]too[/I] easy to bring guys over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irish Wolf Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 I'm really happy about this latest feature. There are a lot of times I see a young Japanese worker who isn't being hired by anyone in Japan and thin but he'd be perfect for SOTBPW or OLLIE but I can't hire him, but I've never been one to make everyone available in all regions.

dvdWarrior Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 I'm pretty excited about this Seeking Foreign Workers thing myself, can't wait to get some use out of it. Guess I'll find out just how loyal Masaru Ugaki is to his beloved PGHW. If he sticks with them after he sees the cash I'll be offering to bring him to California, he might just have my respect for life. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Casey Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 This is a very welcome feature - although for me, it'll be meaningless if the Duponts and Toby Juan Kenobi and Jed High are no longer working their 07 gimmicks... :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyberkitten01 Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Wow, this feature is amazing. The idea of being able to bring in great foreign workers is so exciting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthsiddus2 Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 I absolutely LOVE this new feature. with these real world mods nowadays you couldn't bring guys like Chono or Liger.... now we can :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eisen-verse Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 I love this new feature! This way I can go after a lot of the Japanese legends and try to talk them into wrestling in the states. Very very cool feature. The more and more these new features surface the more and more it's become hard to continue with my 2007 game. hah. I want this new game! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcel Fromage Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Yep, to me this is the most exciting announcement so far. Just hit National with ROF in my diary game and am the 5th biggest promotion in the World - the idea that at this stage in a 2008 game I could feasibly attract some top overseas talent to join is really enticing. Whereas now I'm left with the UK dregs and guys who haven't even worked an indy in 2 years (e.g. Dusty Bin, Mad Dog Mortimer) to 'better' my roster! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shamelessposer Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 [QUOTE=NickC13573;385975]am I the only one who thinks the calender feature is kind of a drag. I mean, I see the draw of it and I like it... its just with all these "helper" features, it seems this game is getting too easy.[/QUOTE] I know that Nick has already been pretty thoroughly savaged for this post, but I can't even begin to understand the mentality it takes to write something like this. The challenge of a TEW game is supposed to be in the quality of the opposing promotions, your own attempts to build new stars, and trying to keep a locker room of egomaniacs as happy as possible. An improved interface doesn't make the game easier so much as it makes the game [i]playable[/i]. Pong would be a lot harder if you couldn't see your own paddle, but there aren't too many people who'd call that a "challenge" and not a "crappy design decision."

Ping von Erich Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 My question is, will the AI take advantage of this foreign talent negotiations feature? Same with the old talent trades feature in '07.. the AI never utilized it, are advances being made to allow for AI use of these features? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The Aussie Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Hey, I actually think that more improvements have been made so far then in the entire Smackdown vs RaW series. The foreign talent negotiations is another sweet addition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonkingkarl Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 I wish the AI could use the talent available to them through promotion relations. It would help in booking an NWA like old school territory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basketball45231 Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 I was wondering if all of the ideas were Adam's or did he take some of the users ideas as well. It would be cool if he said each if it was his idea, or which user posted it that he saw. Obviously all the credit goes to Adam fr putting it into the game.

BadFurDay Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 [QUOTE=The Aussie;387254]Hey, I actually think that more improvements have been made so far then in the entire Smackdown vs RaW series.[/QUOTE] Except SvR was awful to start with (you can make that track back to the old RAW and SmackDown! games), and they didn't bother change anything but a few models and moves. Though granted, so far I'm interested enough to buy the game, and only part of the new additions have been revealed yet, go Adam! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is though there are so many cool new features already, it's often not a stretch either. The sick bay is a wonderful idea and I look forward to seeing it. I'm not to all caps about it but the wait sure is getting to early Tom Petty song levels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vladamire Dracos Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 OK, I'm getting to the point where I'm wondering if I could pre-order the game, and Adam hasn't even gotten through all the Dev Journal points. That's a pretty good job, I'm an extremely hard sell. Come on Adam, you've won, let me give ya my hard earned moneys already! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
