TEW2010 Developer's Journal Discussion

[daiplug]

#3 is already in TEW08 (and has been since 07, if I remember right). It's called the short term contract. And even with regular contracts, you can specify number of appearances that are tied to the contract (with the length as a 'within this time span' like with loans).

 

 

But if i was a promotion lets say the size of WWE and wanted to bring in an old comedy wrestler for one show... on the negotiation page they would demand a written contract because of the size of my promotion... please correct me if im wrong?

[Phantom Stranger]

Definitely like this one.

Please continue this discussion elsewhere - we have a subforum for suggestions, they don't need to be jammed into an unrelated thread.

today's feature, (auto naming segments) makes this game worth the money all by itself!

[djthefunkchris]

To me this is a feature that will mean more to some then other's, but everyone will get so used to that just doing it one time without the feature will "feel" wrong.

 

These type of feature's are what I think really makes the game great. Feature's everyone will use, become second hand, and just meld into the game without even a hint that it was never there in the first place.

[G-Prime]

Holy crap, this is going to make diaries so much easier. Now I don't have to type exactly what happens in each angle, so I can write the show from the history, it will do it on it's own.

[sprinklefurball]

holy socks! I suggested this one! I love it!

[panix04]

I agree todays feature gets a special thumbs up from me. It will be particuarly cool when looking at what promotions do when you sim them.

[dvdWarrior]

Definitely a feature that will come in handy! I like it.

Yep, and there's more where this one came from.

 

But I have to apologize to everyone. I honestly didn't think so many people would see the utility of this feature. But it's exactly like chris says. This is one of those features that when you go back to play 08 or 07 for old time's sake, is going to make the old game seem "off" because it doesn't have it. It does for me, that's for sure. ("Whaddaya mean you can't use the same name twice? The other segment isn't....ohhhhhhh. Crap!")

 

As I said before, not everything in TEW10 is going to be "OMG, that is HUGE". A lot of things are quality of life additions that just make the game more intuitive and easier to work with.

[The Masked Orange]

OMG, this is huge!

[Jaded]

This one IS huge for me, simply because it will end up saving many hours either renaming angles or typing them into a notepad file so that I can remember what happened - even as a quick typer, with the amount of angles I use, the time spent doing that builds up FAST. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

I love the new feature. I know I am horribly lazy at times but some times when I lean back in my chair, put my feet on my desk and only play with my mouse I find it a bit of a hassle to have to sit up to reach my keyboard and alter the angle's name just because I already used "promo (singles)" in the show. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

[LoganRodzen]

This will definitely save some time. I'm a 100% match ratio kind of guy most of the time... but on occasion I like to set it to 80% and run a few angles, so when that happens it will save me time. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

[PeterHilton]

Awesome feature. And by being able to edit the output it will add some real 'character' to any new storyline packs.

[shipshirt]

This is a very cool feature. Does it mean, though, that for DOTT and other mods, you'll have to go in and change each angle or is it something inherent in the angle placement itself?

[Wrestling Century]

Sweet! Maybe now I can finally start up a good long running dynasty! <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

[Irish Wolf]

Neat little feature I'm sure it'll be helpful for some. I lay out all my shows in advance in Excel so it just takes me a second to cut and paste the segment names.

[ThriceP86]

<p>This is my first time replying to this thread, so I just want to say that every single journal entry pretty much seals the deal for me buying this game.</p><p> </p><p>

Secondly, PeterHilton: You're avatar is awesome!</p><p> </p><p>

Thirdly, I don't know why but Predator Hiring comes back to me and I thought it was a cool addition... even though it will probably piss me off when it happens in the game. ;-)</p>
