justtxyank Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 This thread is to gauge interest in an alternate timeline mod, set in the 1990s. It would be early 90s, say January 1992. The scenario is in line with my last attempt at a Rise of the Territories mod. Basically the steroid trials kill the WWF. What happens after that is a resurgence of the territory system as promotions pop up all over the United States trying to fill the void. There is a mad rush to get on tv with the cable expansion. Old stars are back in the spotlight as there is now work to be had all over the place. That's rough details. So...interest level? Think of it as "The Fall" but set in the 90s instead of the 2000s.

Jaysin Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 I voted yes, because...well it'd be freaking awesome. What would WCW's position then? Would the WWF's steroid issues drag them down too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayW Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 I also voted yes, just because I love scenario's like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justtxyank Posted January 27, 2014 Author Share Posted January 27, 2014 <p>If anyone reading is interested in doing promotion logos, event logos, tv shows, or belts, send me a PM.</p><p> </p><p> No need to volunteer for ALL, but if you think you could help even do even a few of a category that would be a big help.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarmonyOfDissonance Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 <p>Dunno how anyone could say that they're not interested. This sounds pretty damn cool.</p><p> </p><p> If I had some sort of GFX ability I'd be all over it. Right now I just use cooltext.com when I need GFX of a logo xD</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now is the WWF going to be out of business completely, or are you leaving them in, but making it super hard to build them back up if the player wants to play as them?</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawnbill5000 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 <p>Oddly enough in my long term game using the 'rising storm 1991' mod this very thing happened.</p><p> </p><p> The steroid scandal killed WWF and WCW (me) rose to be the global leader. I then started buying smaller promotions or opening them around the world, then I joined an alliance with those said promotions. This gave it had a new "NWA/territory's" feel. I have places I can send people, I can also 'borrow' their big stars for matches with my big stars.</p><p> </p><p> In short, I think it's a good idea.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuckIsForLosers Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 <p>I think this is insanely insanely awesome. As long as overness and stats are scaled properly this will be a ridiculous mod. Playing the 1983 Mod made by Alvarasus showed me that the territories system where you have lots of competing comapnies all within an alliance all of a similar size waiting for one to snap and go hard on others' talent is an unbelievably awesome scenario with endless possibilities. So much fun. </p><p> </p><p> Trouble is, as someone born in 1990 I found myself lost with a lot of the early 80s/late 70s workers (my in depth knowledge probably begins in 1985ish) - I found myself wishing that a mod like that, alt reality of course, existed for a time when I could use Shawn Michaels, Bret Hart, 'Taker, Austin, Luger, Sting etc with Rock and HHH and Jericho just around the corner rather than being in a spot where I had an insanely young, green Randy Savage and Curt Hennig etc with Shawn Michaels years away. </p><p> </p><p> In short - please do this!</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Also - what is "the fall" you refer to? A 2000 territorial mod (if so where can I get it?! Is it well scaled?)</strong></p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
