KOMBAT X - Rebirth? Reboot? [Hype Thread]


Recommended Posts

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v260/Frontiergfx/Image18.jpg

 

I've been toying with the idea of finally bringing this mod up to scratch now I'm more familiar with how this editor works. I will be mainly working on tweaking stats/masks/gimmicks etc to start. It is highly likely this mod will be released with the 930 workers from previous versions (1083 cuts so everyone has a pic and then some).

 

So for those who never knew what this was, here's a little backstory...

 

TEW 2005: Having been bored to death with C-Verse, Historical Mods and Real World a guy named... well lets just say me... was trying to breath new life into his game. He had an idea... what if Mortal Kombat, Tekken & Street Fighter joined the C-Verse! So he began editing, however half way through modding he noticed... TEW 2007 to be released! Well... editing stops...

 

TEW 2007: The Mod takes on a life of it's own! The idea to add 3 promotions based on MK, SF and Tekken to the C-Verse is scrapped, instead a new idea emerges. Feeling Nostalgic, a Thundercats promotion is added to the mix, shortly followed by The Turtles and DOA. GTA and Batman next get the nod followed by other game/cartoonbased promotions and workers. Diablo Kombat is born... I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII, VIII, IX and finally after the X re-start, it get's it's name!

 

It's been ported over, edited and added to in 2008's and 2010's TEW.

 

So that's the boring inception of the idea if you will, now KOMBAT X is going to hopefully make it onto your laptop/desktop in 2011... still of course on TEW 2010. The Mod will start in August 2010 - because that's the last time I touched it!

 

So where are we in terms of "content" for release?

PROMOTION SPOTLIGHT

Owner: Queen Anora

Head Booker: Duncan

Finances: $5,000,000

Status: Regional

 

Small status, but huge money and a good mix of talent. This promotions roster is made up of characters from the Mass Effect and Dragon Age series of games. My second favourite promotion to play as.

 

Champions:

QUICK UPDATE #1:

 

So I've tweaked the stats for workers of the major promotions in order that the workers fit with the style. I've also edited 10 new locations into it (places from GTA4). It's about half gaming/comic/cartoon locations and half C-Verse. I've put in a little over 2 hours work today and am in need of a break (hence this update!) Another quick promotion spotlight? One of the womens promotions maybe? Marvel-Ous Women of Wrestling (M-WOW).

The #1 promotion in the game for womens wrestling is M-WOW. A nice challenging little promotion, however there are plenty of good, solid female workers out there to help establish this company as a legitimate contender. It'll take time but I had fun in the 3 test months I played this. Especially when Cheetara left Thundercats and became a threat to She-Hulks title reign!

QUICK UPDATE #2:

 

I'll try and update daily, although the fact I'm laid up in bed is helping get work done on this! If I keep this rate up I could have something playable by Sunday! This morning I've gone through sex appeal (mainly for women). I have to admit I struggled on this one as I wouldn't know how to rate computer/cartoon characters in terms of this stat. Kinda just figured, "imagine they are a real person" and tried as best I could from that (also if there was a film made, I used the actress as a base - example Scarlett Johansen as The Black Widow in Ironman 2... or Kirsten Dunst as Mary Jane etc...). I also went based off of what their "species would think" which is even more difficult when it comes to a Cheetara or Pumyra! Figured Lion-O would give them both a shot!

 

Anyway, Quick Promotion overview... Tekken Tag Team Wrestling (T3W).

Instead of the "default" 1 on 1 matches, Tekken uses 2 on 2 as it's default matches. This works pretty well in game, however King of the Ironfist event is set up so it is only 1 on 1 matches for the tournament to be played out properly by the AI. This just gives you something different when playing. I've not ever seen a tag team specific promotion before and just liked the idea. Obviously if you don't like this idea, a couple of seconds changing the set-up to 100% 1 on 1 isn't going to hurt you. I originally had a female tag team title, and a male tag team title however the female tag title always got abandoned and a "mixed" belt was created so I'm hoping the title set-up in place now works better.

So work on this has progressed nicely. I decided to add a new promotion Kinnikuman Generations Wrestling and have spent the best part of 4 hours on it... (Oh it's M.U.S.C.L.E. for those not familiar with Kinnikuman).

 

I didn't realise how many characters this thing had! I'm pretty sure I could just make a mod using these! Anyway, so far I think I'm up to 30 workers, 1 ref, 1 announcer, 1 manager). I may add a few of the workers into the free agents pool too as there are some great characters. Promotion spotlight on it you say? Well it isn't complete but I suppose I could share what I've got so far...:p

Kinnikuman Generations (formerly Nisei until I found Nisei meant Junior) are probably one of the most fun promotions to play as in terms of characters if my test play is anything to go by (and work on it isn't even complete yet). I mean Bananaman vs. Chihuahuaman... that's Wrestlecrap GOLD in itself... maybe make it a 3 way with Bossam the Vacuum Cleaner and you have a card fit for... er... well. With the exception of the Tournaments, I'm a little stuck on titles (but that doesn't concern me at this point as something will come up). A diary from someone with this promotion is a must. I have chosen characters from different story "arcs" and put them together so you'll get some from the original (although they will be older workers) and some from the newer releases such as Kevin Mask from the Nisei arc, who is the son of Robin Mask from the original. Kinniku Mantaro the son of Kinnikuman etc...

Please let me know of changes/improvements/additions you'd like to see. I've tried to make this so anybody can open it and play easily. There are challenging promotions and there are easy promotions. This isn't the final release, more a test release to get some other peoples views. Oh and heres a screen of what you get in this "test" release.

Gotham Pro's vocal crowd hates a good number of people on their roster.

 

I added a tag title to GPW called the Dynamic Duo. Robin and The Punisher are the inaugural champs :D

 

Also, on my first show with them I decided to start a feud between Nightwing and The Red Hood and they have great chemistry together :D:D

 

I have two story lines going; the previously mentioned Nightwing and Red Hood feud over the Night Ruler title and a six way feud over the Titan title featuring 3 faces and 3 heels.

 

Faces

Batman

Ironman

Superman

 

Heels

The Joker

Vergil

Negavolt(original character I am using for a user character)

 

Negavolt won the belt at Dreams in Darkness and I'm going to hopefully have him hold the belt until I'm big enough for Spawn or Spider-Man to sign with me.

 

The lack of Ghost Rider made me sad though :(

I can't believe I forgot Ghost Rider! He shall be in the final release. I'll also tweak Gotham so there's not so many people disliked on their roster.

 

I couldnt decide because there was atleast 8 promotions I wanted to play... so I decided to make my own promotion and build from the ground up. :D

 

Glad I made it a difficult choice! lol

 

Obviously anything you guys find that you think "WTF???" just put it here and I'll get round to fixing it before a final release.

Nightmare Dead 13 releases a bunch of people their first few weeks and then sign a bunch of people from AEG and a few other smaller companies that have National and up workers.

 

AEG lost Spider-Man and Spawn easily. They're both too big for AEG right from the get go.

 

When ND13 stole Spidey they gave him the Zombie Spider-Man character and I applaud you for putting that in!

I've made ND-13 a high Cult promotion now instead of National so hopefully they'll stick to their own roster a little more (gonna test it) and upped the popularity of AEG so they aren't always losing Spider-Man and Spawn so easily.

 

Wolverines not under any contract anywhere.

 

I decided to keep Wolverine a free agent so there were a few big stars to snap up. I was going to have him in AEG but for whatever reason put Spawn in there instead.

 

Keep them coming guys!

I was going to add them in myself because I love the concept, but I'm horrible at stats so I thought I'd post them here.

 

I kind of would like to see the different people who have taken up the mantle of The Crow make it into the game.

Draven and Corven versions of The Crow will be in - although the pics I've found in their Crow persona aren't brilliant.

They'll be in the final release. I managed to find a better pic for Black Panther and Carnage.

 

I'm toying with this:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v260/Frontiergfx/GIW.jpg

But at the same time, part of me doesn't see it being a worthwhile endeavor just yet though. (GI Joe based promotion for those who hadn't guessed).

 

Changes so far:

 

Added: Black Panther

Added: Carnage

Added: Kraven

Added: Morbius

Added: The Crow (Eric Draven)

Added: The Crow II (Ashe Corven)

Added: Ghost Rider

 

Tweaked: Draculas Overness (-25% in all regions except Eastern Europe)

Tweaked: Spider-Mans Overness (-10% in USA & Canada)

Tweaked: Spawns Overness (-10% in USA & Canada)

Tweaked: AEG are now a top tier Cult promotion (raised from lower Cult)

Tweaked: ND-13 are now a top tier Cult promotion (dropped from National)

Tweaked: Gotham Pro Wrestling money now $5,000,000 instead of $10,000,000

Tweaked: Gotham Pro Wrestling now Very Low hardcore (why the hell I had it at medium I'll never know). Should have less of a vocal crowd hating on everyone.

 

Well that's it for now. Just realised it's gone 2am and I'm shattered!
