pat666 Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 I'm playing WWE, and I signed Don Paysan. In less than 2 months I was able to bring him from enhancement talent to Lower Midcarder. I've gave him some busy weeks wrestling 3 of the 4 shows. Raw (first match TV time), ECW(1st match TV time) and Superstar. He went from 0 popularity in USA to 60 everywhere. It's pretty cool by having a wrestler win on TV helps him getting over fast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TylerDrew Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 Ehe, with the right Destiny stat I think that would have been doable in 08 as well, it doesn't seem any easier in my experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigpapa42 Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 I've seen Dan Paysan with some very good stats in some mods, including fairly high Star Quality (B or B+), plus pretty good charisma. Even with just a B SQ, putting him on TV three times a week is going to cause someone to jump up pretty quickly. Think about it this way - unless those matches or segments you used him in arre particularly short, he would be getting as much or more TV time than anyone currently in the WWE universe.

D-Lyrium Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 Plus the fact that all you've really done is taken him from someone nobody ever heard of, to someone most wrestling fans know. It's much harder (but still not really all that hard) to take him to the next level: Someone people actually care about, and push him to the upper echelons of the card. A paper bag, if it gets enough TV time, could become a lower midcarder in the WWE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie Vick Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 Because I've been brainwashed to use their terminology....? Yeah, I hate that phrase. It sounds like something the corporate idiots at my job would come up with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
praguepride Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 I'm playing WWE, and I signed Don Paysan. In less than 2 months I was able to bring him from enhancement talent to Lower Midcarder. I've gave him some busy weeks wrestling 3 of the 4 shows. Raw (first match TV time), ECW(1st match TV time) and Superstar. He went from 0 popularity in USA to 60 everywhere. It's pretty cool by having a wrestler win on TV helps him getting over fast You had him wrestling what... 3x a week for 2 months? That's 24 shows. Again, if he was putting on even halfway decent matches, his exposure alone would make him a known name. Popularity is an exponential curve though. Getting someone from 0 - 10 is far far easier then getting someone from 90 - 100 even though the distance is the same. So perhaps it will then take you about 6 months of solid push to make him a midcarder, then another year to get him to the upper card, then maybe another 2-4 years to become a main event star? Suddenly it's not so fast, eh? But then again with super stats, high or excellent potential and a lucky roll on the destiny die and he could be a superstar within the year. And you know what, that happens in real life too. Some people hit the ring and you just know they're going to be dynomite!

CQI13 Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 Or a mop. Moppy was over HUGE. Helped it had Saturn to work with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gigas Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 Its easier to get people over in this version. If you give someone a brute/legit gimmick, and just let them dominate matches, their fame shoots right up. Same with the cool or c0cky gimmicks. The fact gimmicks matter is one of the best new features in this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
