miz468 Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 Is there a way to alter your user character's relationship? I'm running a CZCW save with Peter Michaels and him and The Guru have a strong dislike of each other (assuming related to Guru being fired from SWF). I actually like Guru and would prefer him over the free agent color guys. Any way to change this using game mechanics and not just changing it outright?

Sco xY2Jx Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 What goes into deciding who your franchise players are? I know in tour the company, your top 5 there are just your top 5 mosy popular/over workers. But what what dictates who's a franchise player? Star quality? Other intangibles? I only ask as Eric Eisen has been undoubtedly the most popular worker for months in my SWF save, everything is money, yet he's not considered franchise.

Pteroid Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 So here’s a lore question because I can’t seem to find it anywhere in-game anymore: What does the acronym of F.E.A.R in ZEN stand for? I remember that the A.R stands for ‘Agents of the Revolution’ but I’m blank on the whole thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jgriff3029 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 I believe it works like any other penalty. If the match rainy before the penalty was assessed is higher than the storyline heat you get dinged. I am not making myself clear with "the segment was penalized due to a lack an associated storyline" penalty. I know what triggers it when the two workers are in a storyline (ie. I am not getting the storyline enough heat). However, i get a match penalty in the dirt sheet that reads "the segment was penalized due to a lack of an associated storyline" and the workers involved in the match are not in a storyline. I notice it happens a lot in the main event when the workers aren't involved in a storyline together. Last night I got it in a midcard match playing the Golden Era mod. Steamboat and Bob Orton wrestled. Steamboat is in a storyline with Savage and Orton is not in a storyline. Savage was not involved in the match or segment. When looking at the results Steamboat got a 94 match rating and Orton I believe an 81. The match only scored a 72 so I checked the dirtsheet to see where the penalties occurred and the match got the "the segment was penalized due to a lack of an associated storyline". After running another card I realized I was using the wrong word: It is lack of "associated storyline", not "hot storyline" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is only about half the matches that have no storyline involved get the penalty. Do both wrestlers need to be a certain push or popularity?

Hashasheen Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Wanted to ask people if they had any ideas on how to rebrand the CZCW titles into water-themed titles. Obviously there's the forum classic that is the Tidal Tag Team Championships, but does anyone else have ideas for rebranding the singles belts?

James Casey Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Vortex/Vortices for the tag belts Hydraulic for the midcard/workhorse belt Cavitation for the All-Action equivalent (I appreciate this may be redundant in CZCW!) to emphasise being buffeted from all sides; Alternatively Fluid/Fluidic/Fluid Dynamics for the champion being the one with the best flow Thermocline for the upper-midcard 'gatekeeper' title Wavemaker for the main belt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hashasheen Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Vortex sounds good to replace the Xtreme title and Wavemaker for a tournament is also good. Might use Typhoon for the main event... Thanks, Casey! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After running another card I realized I was using the wrong word: It is lack of "associated storyline", not "hot storyline" Im going to take a wild guess, But if im watching week to week and Ricky Steamboat is in a feud with Randy Savage and im loving the feud. It would be strange to then watch one week (say week five of me watching) and Ricky Steamboat comes out to wrestle Bob Orton randomly without his feud with Savage being addressed or he being involved in the match somehow. then the following week he goes back to feuding with Savage.... Maybe that's where the penalty is from??? it's the only thing I can think of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then, leave the game with the booker of the company you're talking about. Add the owner you want to play as and pick the company. Leave the game with the unemployed user character you just picked.</p><p> I hope what I just wrote makes sense for you.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
