combatmedic Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 This may sound kind of morbid, but will there be more options for deaths in TEW 08?? It just seemed that the only deaths I saw in TEW 07 were drug related, which is realistic in the wrestling world. But a couple of time I got a message that said "Ricky Steamboat died of drug overdose" "Dusty Rhodes dies of drug overdose." I think it would be a little better to have more auto accidents, drownings, suicide, murder, killed by lion. It's a minor thing, but regardless, I will buy this game once it becomes available Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crayon Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 I'm all for accidents (used sparingly).. murder and suicide may be just be asking to open up a can of worms when it comes to real world mods of course.. plus it does seem a little dark for the game. Not that it'd bother me.. but maybe some people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It got kind of unwieldy at times. But in Hollywood Mogul 2 you had deaths like "Dino Bravo dead. Crushed by giant mirror" or "Bobby Duncum Jr. dies in own arms." Maybe some sort of wacky deaths like that could fit in the place of the murders and suicides. Of course you had serious stuff like cancer and car crashes too. But the wacky ones happened just as often if not more so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Akki Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 Murder is in the game, at least to a point. I've seen someone jailed for 15 years for second-degree murder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jesterx7769 Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 I am for it and against it. The only reason I would like to see it is in extreme cases of worker behavior. For example if the worker meets certain criteria he is more open to commit suicide, if he is a jackass and all that other critieria he is open to murder. But I dont think this plays a significant enough part to spend any real time working out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
praguepride Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 Yeah, I think that saying a worker committed suicide is opening a whole nasty can of worms. Besides, the majority of wrestlers do die prematurely from drug overdoses. Same with others in the entertainment industry. I'd say maybe have a couple options: 1) Accident 2) Natural causes 3) Drug overdose Many suicides are often reported as accidents to preserve the integrity of the individual, and I really don't want to imagine a game where people can try to drive a worker to suicide.

The Bus Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 I wouldn't really say a majority dies from drug overdose. Yes a larger portion compared to other jobs, but not the majority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kckid4u Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Most wrestlers who die early die from heart attacks. Check it out. Probally 80 out of 100 die from a heart attack. (Cause? = Steroids) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oyaji Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 JR likes to call it death from a "broken heart." That one never gets old. I think murder is a bit much for a wrestling game in the shadow's of this past summer's event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sigilistic Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 I could see this being a good addition, if a little depressing. Still, there's been lots and lots of murders (Bruiser Brody, Dino Bravo) and suicides (Mike Awesome, Chris Benoit) in the industry. I think putting this in is no worse than putting in drug overdoses and prison sentences (both of which are also sad facts of the industry).

cyberkitten01 Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 While some part of me thinks it would be cool, I'm not sure I'd want to see it this game :( When Chris Cash died a few years ago it really sucked, especially as he was having some great matches and really seemed to be on the up, and then died so suddenly at such a young age. Seeing that sort of thing happen in a game wouldn't be nice. If it was maybe one person dies every couple of years from an accident that would ok, but I wouldn't want to see it regularly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdmiralZ Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 [QUOTE=combatmedic;409948]killed by lion.[/QUOTE] Yes, one of my biggest qualms with the TEW series so far, and video games in general, that there are never enough lion-related deaths. In fact I'm hoping this will be the year for GTA IV. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
