I'm playing with a mod (Fleisch's september 2016 mod), so as for the angle it could come from here. This is why i'm asking if there is a way to have more angles by downloading juste one file from an other mod for instance.<p> </p><p> This game sounds awesome yeah ! But the transition from EWR is not easy, TEW is just... so complete and realistic ! For instance, the gain of overness is quite easy in EWR, and here in TEW the equivalent (reputation I guess) seems to be very long to gain. And also I have a lot of matches which are not in the right place in the card or have not the right purpose, and at the end of each show I have not enough interesting storylines for the moment, si these to things hurt the shows. As for now, my show are 61 to 72, not great ! But what I fear is about the broadcasting... they are never happy with the shows quality. I hope after doing a 4/5 month "try game", i'll will be ready to a real game !</p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> You can play EWR mode if you don't enjoy the intricacy of TEW, but I could never go back that far, I love how detailed TEW is. It can take a long time to book shows because of that, especially if you book a lot of angles. That's why I use free style angle, it makes booking quicker and get the story line results i'm looking for, so easy. For instance, Kane vs Undertaker is my main event, Kane goes over via manager interference, to even the score the post match angle will be The Undertaker rated on overness getting success in the storyline, Paul Bearer rated on selling getting defeat in the storyline, and Kane rated on overness getting a minor defeat in the storyline. And in my mind I know that in the match Paul Bearer interfered and hit Taker with the urn and post match Taker raised up from the dead and clotheslined Kane over the top and hit Paul Bearer with a chokeslam.</p><p> </p><p> You can import angles though from any mod. I guess you just got to find a mod you like, I can't really recommend because I use freestyle. </p><p> </p><p> You should find my post on match aims and read a good outline of how to book a show to get better ratings. You need to be aware of perfect show theory.</p>

So I'm in a bit of a pickle. The last shows I ran were all A level. And my popularity in all game areas are all on the rise. After advancing a day where I didn't run any shows, my company dropped in size from global to international. What reasons would there be for this? I'm in an alliance, I'm not part of any wars and my production values are the highest out of any company. Scratching my head any help would be much appreciated.

A question from someone who has never played as WWE before in RW mods: wouldn't the WWE Network conflict with other broadcasters? Like say I have Monday Night Raw airing on USA Network, TEW 10 and TEW13 wouldn't have allowed another broadcaster like the WWE Network for the fact that they both air in a similiar region.

<p>Anyone else finding that tag matches are a bit overpowered in ratings?</p><p> </p><p>

Here are my top-10 matches:</p><p> </p><p>

<span>http://i.imgur.com/iQkcnc6.png</span></p><p> </p><p>

9/10 are tag matches.</p><p> </p><p>

#3 in particular was striking; Dillon & Wolfsbane have no tag experience and are midcarders, while Thunder & Lightning are Upper Mid & Mid, and neither team has notable chemistry.</p><p> </p><p>

I've got some pretty good singles wrestlers, but they generally fall well behind tag matches.</p>

The first 5 also being ladder matches may have something to do with it.

What kind of an alliance are you a part of?

Does anything actually happen if you hire one of the three undercover FBI agents to SWF?

[CPBHBK]

It's by all match ratings through that year. Usually the top 10 is dominated by Japanese feds in real world mods because of the touring schedule.

 

Wouldnt that be Average match rating though? If it is then why do some people in mine with better average match rating get lower then others?

Nope

I buy a new computer, how can I transfer my TEW game?

[DAVEFAN95]

is there any way to see the email suggestions workers have made about other workers again after you deleted them? e.g Worker X thinks Worker Y could be a big star in the future.

Where do you find the default TEW 2016 database?

Can I put two TV shows on a same time slot on a same day on the same broadcaster?If possible will it affect each other's ratings?
