The-619 Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 So far that is, if you are planning on buying the game which feature has made you want to do so or what are you most excited for? For me it is the bidding wars, i always hated in previous versions not being able to steal from the WWE playing as TNA or steal from WCW playing as WWF, etc. It seemed very unrealistic and this feature will no doubt fix that.

Tempest Kane Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 What sold me? Its an Adam Ryland game, end of story. I know im going to get countless hours of game play from a developer that goes out of his way to provide quality to his loyal following. It realy is that simple... track record and the fact he has never let us down yet when it comes to providing the very best wrestling based simulators out there.

djthefunkchris Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 For me it's going to be several features that have sold me, and I'm hoping that there is more of what I've been hoping for to come (although there has already been more then enough already... there is still the icing left). I like strategy, and so all the different things that have been added to make the game more of a challenge, I like. Last year it was the three match rule, this year there hasn't been a HUGE one yet, but there are combinations with the locker room and such that I can see as making things a bit more challenging. However, all the additional benefits in modding is my favorite additions. The "era's" especially. All and any effort to decrease the effort for modder's I like as well. I've said it before, the more options we have as players (and modders), the better. Although I might like a more competitive style of play, other's may like storytelling moreso (for diary's and such) and thus wouldn't want every single hardship. I think it's brilliant of Adam to make ton's of additional feature's as well as already included features with off/on buttons. This makes the game as easy or as hard as you wish it to be (almost like having an inbuilt novice/expert thing happening). You have so many options now, that you can litterally play hundreds of different ways. So to me it's a combination of features. I can't say there is just one thing that has sold me, because I wouldn't pay for just "one" feature for a whole new game... Unless it was Umbrella promotions/NWA style done great. That is the only thing I can think of that would "sell" me all by itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Self Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 I'll download the demo. If I like the C-Verse, if it catches my imagination, I'll buy. If I don't, I won't. I like a lot of the features, but nothing has completely and utterly grabbed me yet. Starting a TEW08 game now feels redundant, but I'm not exactly chomping at the bit to upgrade. Comedy matches came close. I popped for those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bus Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 I must admit that it already was the announcement for me, as I have the utmost respect and trust for Mr. Ryland to keep delivering solid games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irish Wolf Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 I'm with everyone else the instant the game was announced I knew I was going to buy it. It never really mattered exactly what Adam added as he's got a reputation for improving the game dramatically evey iteration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Masked Orange Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 I felt I was going to buy it as soon as it was announced. But then after playing Smackdown Vs. Raw 2010 I had a change of heart. Now I'm just thunkin about playing the demo. Really, I know I won't buy the game unless I like the interface, so I might have to wait for someone to release a decent skin. But I have faith in Ryland-san.

Hive Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 I'm not completely sold on it until an NWA-style umbrella feature is (hopefully) announced. It seems like the big feature people have been requesting the most and I would be dissapointed if it doesn't make it to the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sensai of Mattitude Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 Just sort of my own creative side sold me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Bombadil Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 It being a new TEW game sold me, but honestly, if it wasn't coming out so soon I might've gotten impatient and gotten '08 instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest KingOfKings Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 Just the fact that 08 is so fun and addictive. I don't see how he could go wrong with 10 in any way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dvdWarrior Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 The announcement got me interested without a doubt, but it was this post here: The news will be appearing on the front page of the Grey Dog web site this afternoon, but I thought I'd give an exclusive to the forum; Total Extreme Wrestling 2010 is on its way! that sent me head over heels. Sure, there's loads of features that I can't wait for - Narratives, National Trends, Dirty Tricks, and Eras among so many others - but it was my own universe, and all the awesome things I can do with it now, that really put it over the top. I alread have my money waiting patiently. Money Orders are still being taken aren't they? Because I'm sadly lacking in the credit card department...

Donners Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 Dirt sheet and drag & drop booking were major factors. I also love the exporting of data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaded Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 I buy anything Adam releases, and have never been disappointed yet. The fact that I don't have to spend hours doing a spreadsheet of my roster would definitely have won me over if I wasn't already certain to be buying it, though. Other than that, the whole locker-room stuff and the Dirt Sheet, and Narratives, and Eras, are my favourite features so far... Can't wait until next week.

MitchHedberg Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 What sold me? Hmmm......freakin' everything. EV-UH-RYTHANG. If we're looking for specifics, it would be updates #1-48 thus far. Seriously though, drag and drop is something that I'm looking forward to, bidding wars should assist in the whooping of the immortal arses, and a lot of the smaller things that just polish up the whole experience. I don't know if everyone else is counting down to the demo or the release, but 8 days couldn't be going by any slower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigpapa42 Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 He had me at "hello". There was really no selling it involved. I would happily have forked over my $35 if it was nothing more than a CornellVerse update for TEW 2008. I love 08 and its probably been the best cost-to-hours of player value I've ever had of any type of game. I'm thrilled that there are so many great sounding features. But I would have bought it regardess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WCK604 Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 I've never bought a TEW in the past, but reading thre developer's journal has gotten me so interested I think I'll finally purchase this one. Here's a list of the new features that excite me most: #2: User Preferences: Show stats as numbers instead of grades #4: National Trends #5: The Dirt Sheet #8: Dirty Tricks #10: Random Deaths - Kenny deaths! WOOHOO! #17: Outside Media Opportunities #25: Sick Bumps (I can't believe this was ever taken out...) #26: Booking Skill & Reputation #27: Comedy Matches #36: AI Promotion Relationships #38: Bidding Wars #39: Customisable Angle Auto Name (This has been needed for a long time) #40-43: all the locker room morale stuff makes things so much more realistic. I love it. I love to analyse the small changes and factors that go into how the game plays. So I especailly like the dirt sheet, changing grades to numbers, and the part of the morale overhaul where you can see exactly what factors have gone into a worker's morale.

shamelessposer Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 When the game was announced, it never occurred to me that not buying it was even an option. Budget concerns have pushed back my purchase date by a week, but I will be getting this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will second this as Jaded mentioned everything that I was going to. Although if I had to pick just one thing that sold me on buying the game it would have to be drag and drop booking.
