Alan James Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 I'm a bit confused about alliance titles. Do you control the title all the time? Ric Flair is the NWA champion, but he has been loaned to another company. Could he lose the title there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukok Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 I'm a bit confused about alliance titles. Do you control the title all the time? Ric Flair is the NWA champion, but he has been loaned to another company. Could he lose the title there? Yes he can lose the title at AI shows, but I believe everyone who is loaned gets creative control and can refuse to drop the title to people below him, however alliance titles seem to have really long reigns. Usually I see 20-ish defences so, it'll take a while to lose the title anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once you take of the limit though, you'll rise to the level you should be.

Wrestling Century Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Hey, I want to have an angle where Marat Khoklov and his manager (Grace Harper) come out, and Harper talks up how she helped him invent a new finisher that will make it a certainty that he beats my promotion's champ. Do I just book Marat Khoklov in the angle, since he gets a boost from having Harper as his manager, or do I book both of them in the angle?

Do I just book Marat Khoklov in the angle, since he gets a boost from having Harper as his manager, or do I book both of them in the angle? I'd book him on-screen for overness as "the guy just standing there looking impressive while the manager speaks". Like Lesnar & Heyman.

dalenichol Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Wasn't sure if this'd count as a small question or merit its own thread, but decided to err on the side of caution. I've picked up TEW16 today, being a life long wrestling fan and an avid WMMA player, but the differences in games are pretty huge. I've started an up to date mod, real world mod with GFW and I'm just looking for a bit of advice on what you guys and girls do in the first few days of a new game?

I know, I was going to book him using menace, but do I only book him (since he gets a boost from her managing), or do I book him & Harper in the angle? What would convey to the game engine that Harper is talking and he is there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyways, I usually look at my roster and hire any free agents that I think would benefit my company, then I look over my schedule to make/adjust events. It would also be a good idea to check your creative meeting screen, to see the Next Big Things list. The wrestlers on that list have the potential to carry your company, so you should book them extremely strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d12345 Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Is there a way to have organic bios that don't replace the original bios? Basically the original bio would exist and organic bio would add on to it whenever something noteworthy happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tussinewa Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 What happens when you buy out or take over another promotion? I presume you get the contracts of those workers but does anything else happen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nickman Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 If Harper is good on entertainment skills, I would book Khoklov on Menace and Harper on Entertainment. Yep, that's how I do it. I just clone Promo (Tag), change the Khoklov one to Overness (or Menace) and use that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remianen Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 I've started an up to date mod, real world mod with GFW and I'm just looking for a bit of advice on what you guys and girls do in the first few days of a new game? Well, first thing I'd do is run a yearlong watcher game to see how/if the mod works. Lot of issues reported with just converted mods (broadcasting stuff, for example) and it would suck to get a year into a save only to find out that most of the new features don't work (or don't work right). After the save is started, I spend the first day checking the roster, cutting dead weight and extending all the people I want to keep. I also shortlist everyone I'm even remotely interested in (Filter -> Female -> Shortlist All). I don't start hiring until Wednesday or Thursday of Week 1 so the AI promotions can do their normal roster purges (happens all the time). I'm also figuring out my plans for title lineages (and new titles, if I see fit). Also, I plan out my first 10 or so storylines (not all started at once, of course). I change the day of all monthly/annual events to Sunday Week 4 too. I've been following the same script for so long that it's pretty much second nature at this point.
