shadowmaster Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 If you have some raw wrestlers which is a better way to develop their skills - send them to a developmental fed or use them in house shows? Do workers gain anything in house shows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFC_chris Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 At a guess I would say development, with a good trainer sent down there with them. I'm not sure whether house shows will increase wrestlers skills though. Obviously another way would be to put them in the ring with more talented workers on your own shows.

Bigpapa42 Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 House shows are really just to test chemistry. Workers will develop on their own, even without wrestling much, the idea being that they are training regularly. In my experience, younger workers will improve faster in development. You need to make sure you have some good trainers, however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pepper2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Your worker will only improve at a certain level in a development fed. That worker will then improve by wrestling, angles or being part of the announcing team (but there is a destiny cap) You wont improve in skills in House Shows.

takertitan Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 I have MAW as my dev fed and i was wondering if Rip Chord is still considered a trainer. Since he is not a member of my dev team, is he still effecting my students stats? I have 1 of the road agents from TCW down there aswell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyde Hill Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 hes prolly affecting the quality of their matches if hes the assigned RA but not training them in down time so the speak your ra will be doing that. What i have wondered though is when u use mulitiple trainers who is teaching what and to what extent? Is it the best trainer per skill doing the training is it the average of all your trainers per skill? Or when you have 2 trainers who are good at say basics do they both teach it and give a bonus higher then their average? Anyone figured it out yet or has there been a definite answer by adam?

(it isnt the help files im on about btw) Last year I gave the suggestion that the trainer and his history would have an impact on the development. I'm not sure whether Adam incorporated this idea into the game. TBH I've never played a national promotion so far since it's pretty difficult to get there so no idea how the dev.system works.

shamelessposer Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Unless you have personally sent Rip Chord from your roster to your developmental promotion to train your developmental talent, he is not training anyone. A developmental promotion can still work wonders on your roster without a trainer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Stranger Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Id love an answer on this, and indeed many other game functions, He's not a trainer, as the game looks at it and says "Not on dev contract? Might be working for other places, which'd mean he can't be training full time as he'd have to go to their shows." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantom Stranger Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Well, so much for that. Gonna have to kill my house shows or start using them for chemistry testing Your house shows are for chemistry and for making money. At higher levels it becomes essential to run house shows to remain solvent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pepper2008 Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 House Show appearance counts as an appearance for your promotion in that region. Hence, through internet and CD you will continue to gain popularity to places you dont have TV or PPV coverage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomnipotent Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 House Show appearance counts as an appearance for your promotion in that region. Hence, through internet and CD you will continue to gain popularity to places you dont have TV or PPV coverage. You will stabilise your popularity in areas you are visiting with house shows; house shows will not gain popularity for you. DVD sales, as far as I know, will not increase popularity; they only serve to bring you money, which is why the decision between DVD sales and internet footage is a decision at all. Internet footage will increase popularity by a slim margin everywhere (at least it was everywhere in TEW2007, haven't mucked around with it enough in 08 to know for sure). Without visiting areas constantly, however, popularity will eventually dwindle as fans don't have access to the live product. House shows count as these visits. -hits Pepper with a gravity hammer- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need House Shows to maintain the popularity. But remember if you start using the internet or CD at the 5th Month of the game without visiting that region the benefit you will gain will be lost at the end of the week. Visit means running a show (whether House Show or regular show), TV coverage and PPV coverage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Kirby Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 DVDs don't improve your popularity. That's the trade-off between the two. Internet gives you the .02, DVDs get you cash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please start a game with SWF they start at DVD becaue their distribution is worldwide and check on the popularity after your first event. you will gain .02 points.

jackwad Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Please start a game with SWF they start at DVD becaue their distribution is worldwide and check on the popularity after your first event. you will gain .02 points. That might be popularity spillover. Does the popularity go up by .02 after every show like it would with internet distribution? I usually play smaller feds, and I never saw my popularity worldwide increase unless I used internet OR the promotion hit the next size. I suppose the rules might be different for a large promotion like SWF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
