Adam Ryland Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Hi everyone, Sorry for the recent lack of updates regarding WMMA2; it was simply because the initial work has mainly consisted of fairly boring work to update and enhance the existing code to create the foundation for the game, and so there has been nothing to write about. That said, the game is starting to take shape and is looking like it'll be leaps and bounds ahead of the original in every aspect. I'm still not sure about an exact release date, but I'd like to think we'll be looking at a day in February or March at the latest. My current plan is to start the developer's journal at the beginning of January, and take the same route as we did with TEW08 which is to have a new entry every weekday between then and the release of the game.

Nephrinn Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Good to know WMMA 2 is on its way. I've been playing WMMA almost nonstop since it came out and still love it. Can't wait to see/hear what has changed. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UFC-KING Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 I Can't Wait, I've loved this game I've played WMMA and TEW and I've found WMMA has much more potential to reach out to much more of a fanbase I'm not saying that wrestling isn't bad because I do love TEW, but that WMMA has the potential to be a much more well thought out game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capelli King Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 i loved both TEW + WMMA, these are basically the only forums i regularly come to and i think that WMMA has allot of potential. I consider WMMA #1 just the begining, something EWR was in its day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InsatiableInsanity Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 If I had the option of buying either a new console with any game or WMMA 2, I'd pick WMMA 2 any day! I absolutely love WMMA and it's my most-played game. I'm eagerly anticipating WMMA 2 and will be checking back for the updates! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sons of Kohral Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Woot Woot! Any word yet on how much time elapsed game-wise? 2 years? 4? 1? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weidt Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Any new or revised features known to be in WMMA2? Do you accept suggestions? Some ideas to expand upon WMMA include: -- Allow more weight classes. -- Also allow us to customize the weight classes defined in global rankings too. I like to use my own weight system throughout all companies, but when I view global rankings the weight classes available are all predefined. (For example, in a real world mod, some heavyweight fighters get ranked as superweight since they are over 265, instead of with other heavyweights.) -- Full screen resolution. Widescreen support. I use 1680x1050, so a bigger WMMA window would be nice, especially at getting more info on the screen at once. -- Fighter stat chart (bars or numbers showings strength in different skills) instead of text-based strengths and weaknesses. A way to compare two, or more, fighter's stats side-by-side would be nice too. -- PNG support for all graphics/renders. This would allow for better quality renders at the least, instead of the jagged-edged GIFs. -- More streamlined office. In other words, cut down on the number of buttons/screens one must load to access settings. WMMA has a lot of vacant space that could be used to provide more direct access in the office. -- Seperate the Rankings page so its accessable from the menu. Have the list of weight classes on the left, and clicking one loads the top 20 (yes, 20 instead of 10) fighters. Similar to how the hiring screen is setup. Alright, I could ramble on with more wise ideas, but I have to go put up Xmas lights -- yes, I know, its way too early, but the weather is at least cooperative still, ha.

Bossman Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 It would be great if you could announce the major new features of WMM2 so that people would stop suggesting features that are already going to be in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GatorBait19 Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 don't know if it was said but being able to let cetain people fight like say one is Heavyweight and one is feather, and in the world it is seen as a great match but because of weight it can't happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Ryland Posted November 17, 2008 Author Share Posted November 17, 2008 There is a suggestion forum further down the board, can people please use that rather than randomly putting ideas in this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Tricky Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 If WMMA 2 is leaps and bounds ahead of WMMA 1 in every aspect then I may not ever leave my computer again after it comes out, I'm already putting so much time into WMMA I can't imagine what it will be like with all the improvements.

UFC-KING Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Amen on that one Tricky, I'm probably on the computer from 3 when I get home, and all the way ti'll 10 either on GDS or playing WMMA, (I Actually find myself dreaming about what the match outcome will be when I go to bed with matches booked :D) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
