shawn michaels Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Can the new codes be used after a saved game has started or only before? Edit: NVM, I got my answer. Thanks for putting in the codes, Adam. Great stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Questlove Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Yes, but that same logic doesn't seem to fit with a New Japan promotion's product. a B for that match is more fitting if it were put on by WWE on the undercard for example I changed the experience of the announcers and the match rating shot up from 82 to 95. Had no idea that could move the needle so heavily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackman Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 I changed the experience of the announcers and the match rating shot up from 82 to 95. Had no idea that could move the needle so heavily. Good announcing is what can make the different between a good match and a legendary one. In the E-company I'm running now I often get B-matches on PPV, but an A-match is reserved for the storylines, that is if they are hot. You're basically stuck running angles all the time as one normal TV-match will bring it back to B-rating. But imo that's how it should be, instead of churning out A* matches all the time whenever Hogan and Flair go at it. Then the game becomes boring.

Teh_Showtime Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 I changed the experience of the announcers and the match rating shot up from 82 to 95. Had no idea that could move the needle so heavily. Don't think that was the ONLY factor though, you can run the same match dozens of times with no change and produce a better or worse rating, especially with guys as talented as Kenny and Okada. It also depends on how the crowd is which is always a variable because every preceding match is also prone to change every time you sim the show. Maybe a match over produced in that original sim and it ended up burning out the crowd for the main event that was apparently awesome, but they were tired and thus it only got a B. It's a mixture of complexity and randomness so it's hard to pinpoint the exact problem a lot of the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d12345 Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 There's a roll the dice that factors in as well. Also what was on the card before it. In actuality usual New Japan booking might give you a penalty in TEW. If Tetsuya Naito vs Hiroshi Tanahashi was a 95-100 rated match, the Junior match was 90-95 and the NEVER Openweight match being in the 90s as well the crowd COULD be burned out by the time Omega vs Okada happened (which honestly I was burned out for the first 20 minutes or so). If it followed a 5* match as it did in real life it would get a mark against it unless it was somehow better. If New Japan had to redo yesterday's show there's no telling that everything would go the same way. Same in TEW. Redo the same card 10-times and you'll see 10 different ratings more or less, but within reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Avalanche Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 How does multiplayer games work in regards to patching? If one player updates to the most recent patch, will that stop other players from playing until they have also updated, or can different players play using different patch versions?

I'm not sure of the exact cause, but I believe it was motivational talks after a PPV. He always gave the "very happy" reaction.

For example let's say you are 86 in the U.S., and 75 in Canada, Mexico, and the UK.

hbkb9 Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 So this is very upsetting to me. I recently grew to International size (much to my dismay because I knew I wouldn't be able to withstand that kind of pressure) but I've had my best show yet (A*) and the following show was a B+ that only grew my popularity in 3 regions. Still, I grew in popularity so, all is well right? NO. The next day (The show was on tuesday night, so going into Thursday) I fall to National and enter a shocked phase...which is baffling to me. How do I fall on my day off?! It also doubly sucks because I have a PPV this weekend that's totally worthless now. Can anyone explain this?

Gungner Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 <p>Pop won't do anything... it's importance that decides a company's size. </p><p> And no, they have to reach the stat in their home region... If the company is a regional-based one in the US, but in theory has Cult in Europe and Canada, they will NOT grow to Cult until they have reached it in the US.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
