BayStyles Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Is there a way to have an active fighter be a guest on a broadcast team for an event? For example Dominick Cruz, Daniel Cormier in real life. Or do you have to wait for them to retire/give them a non fighting contract Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matty86 Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 How many shows a month are you guys booking with a UFC sized company? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrokenCycle Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 How many shows a month are you guys booking with a UFC sized company? Depends on how many people you have left over. Usually I can tell by having to scroll to see all my fighters on the match making screen. Usually if there's less than ten people in each division left, ROUGHLY, I'm pretty satisfied. However, I try really hard to stick to 30 people in each division, and I'm playing as GAMMA in the default data. That said, I'm not a huge fan of running more than one show a month. Typically I'll deal with the spillover by running a TV show when I need it. One of the problems with this game is that it doesn't really simulate good TV cards that well (however that's both good and bad?), AND it's pretty hard to create great main events. So basically your popularity will, I would imagine, just stay the same by running both a good card and bad card every month, and might even go down.

Now I just need to figure out how to get pictures to work, I can't find a current file to go with the RW2017 rosters. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrokenCycle Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Game editor: Edit database. Change the picture folder in Database Info. Save Game: Go to settings, click Picture Folder on the left side. It's actually just easier to put every picture in the Default folder on your computer, but make sure there's no folders in the Picture folder.

BayStyles Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 How many shows a month are you guys booking with a UFC sized company? I try to have at least 2 a month. Sometimes I find myself having bigger gaps with no shows and then having a stacked card, because i'm TERRIBLE at booking the lower tier of fighters. I find myself most familiar with the ranked fighters and keep booking them over and over again as soon as they recuperate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PDoody Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 <p>What effects fighter retirements? I've been having a lot of fighters, especially female fighters retire early 30's. Even with decent records with high pop and high ranking</p><p> For example Holly Holm was on a 4 fight win streak and in line for a title shot should she had beaten Raquel Pennington. But she lost, despite being my most popular fighter at the time and still sitting top 15 in the female p4p and retired off of 1 loss in 5</p><p> </p><p> I know Holm is a little older than other examples I could've given but I'm curious as if there are certain factors that impact why fighters retire on this game.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Ryland Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 There are loads of factors. Their hidden Destiny value (unless that's been turned off by having the retirement age preset in the editor), gender, physical condition, recent form, employment status and the value of any contract they have, their position within the world rankings, and others all play a part.

PDoody Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Ah, perhaps it was the age/gender for Holm then, because like I said she had won 4/5 of her last 5, she was on a pretty lucrative contract for my most popular fighter, on around 8k more than she was valued at per fight with decent bonuses. Think she was #17 on the P4P and #5 on the Bantamweight rankings. She was 37 in my game though. Just praying Zingano doesn't retire at 36 as she's in my top 3 fighters when it comes to name value and she's ranked #2 in the division Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbutton169 Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Is it worth getting now since WMMA 5 is out? I bought WMMA 3 yesterday on sale and really enjoy it, is 4 much of an improvement or should I just wait until WMMA 5? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
