OldSkoolHeel Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 1-yes there are "trends" and certain products can gain/lose momentum in certain areas over time. In the editor go under "Game World->Trends" and you can see the pre-set product popularity for the mod you are using Thanks for that reply, I've found the screen you mean. Trends only seem to apply to World Areas (US/Mexico.etc) and not In-Game Regions (Mid-South/Great Lakes/Mid Atlantic.etc). It was the latter that I was thinking of. So, if I am understanding, Mid-South doesn't have a trend or fondness for any style but the US as a whole does? I'd certainly like to see that changed in future releases. Thanks again.

You can't record more than one episode per sgow Thanks for the reply. Makes senses. I'd love to see the '2 TV's recorded in one live show' implemented at some point. Would be a real money saver in appearance feed and production costs. At the lower levels they're absolutely killing me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some examples include lucha is huge throughout Mexico, catch (pure) is big throughout the British Isles, puroresu is huge throughout Japan, etc. It's only America that has multiple products that might be equally favored. Admittedly, there was a time when most regions had a specific product they favored (Mainstream for the Northeast, Traditional for the South and Midwest, Modern for the Southwest, Hardcore in one part of the Tri-State, etc), I think the game handles that very well in its current state. If you want to simulate those changes, that's what Eras are for. You can tailor your scenario to nearly the exact terms you want.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncivilised Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 Hey there, been playing since around January. I'm just curious about the Cornellverse mod, why are so many people gravitated towards this mod for playthroughs? Didn't think it needed it's on thread. Excuse my ignorance, I'm just wondering.

When the first paid version came out Adam created the Cornellverse b/c licensing. I think many of us (at least me) were hesitant to embrace it, but some did. and then some fans started creating pictures for it. By the 2nd version more and more people started to get into it. It's really like any game/comic/movie world- when you get into the characters it's fun. The added bonus of the cornellverse is you can find connections b/t real life wrestlers and the wrestlers in the game. No one is an exact copy, but you'll find traits that will make you embrace certain guys. Honestly last 3 versions, when the demo was released I didn't play at all, I just spent the time reading profiles and seeing how the cornellverse had changed. it's hard to jump into it, but dip your toes a little. It really is a fun wrestling universe.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gungner Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 I had my very first C-Verse save in this years version, and I've been playing TEW since the '08 version. Didn't think I'd care for it, but in a matter of days, I had played through 8 months of game time. It's actually very awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I follow smaller promotions in my area all the time. Some have gotten fancy screens and portray things on it.
