<p>1. Are the instructions for a Battle Royale like Last Eliminated, Finalists and Most Eliminations purely cosmetic or do they affect the match grade and wrestler pop/momentum like Keep Strong does?</p><p> </p><p>

2. Is there a penalty for using a wrestler in too many segments on a show?</p><p> </p><p>

3. Is there a pop/momentum loss for being on the losing side of Menace/Overness beatdown angles?</p>

[Hashasheen]

Does anyone else play some runs without any pictures at all? It's relatively refreshing to do a CVERSE Game with no picture renders, as it makes me focus on the stats ahead of a cool render, which makes me often book guys who were big three game cycles ago who got a really great render in 2010 or 2008.

I imagine it’s only cosmetic.</p><p> </p><p> 2. Different pushes can be used different amount of times on a single show. A main eventer you can use as much as you want, but a midcarder you can only use a few times before the crowd is sick of him</p><p> </p><p> 3. No, but it does affect their storyline success if the angle is set up properly.</p>

[Gungner]

<p>1. Last Eliminated, Finalists and Iron Man gets a pop boost (albeit a very small one). It says so under the description.</p><p> </p><p>

2. Like Jaysin said, but it also has to with match lengths fx. An opener can't be in a 20 minute match, or you'll get the "used too much" penalty.</p>

<p>Thanks for the answers so far.</p><p> </p><p>

1. Does the game detect opponent chemistry only in singles matches or in all match types?</p><p> </p><p>

2. Do workers get bigger pop gain from "A" Show pre-show matches or "B" show main card matches?</p>

I'd say main-card B-show, as the show is most likely broadcast nationally or at least in a few regions. A-Show pre-show is still only watched by the people in attendance and thus only gets them pop in that region.</p>

How do you know if a worker is someone’s regen? Also does someone regen when they retire or die, e.g Sam strong is retired, so will he get one when he dies? And do non wrestlers/ retired wrestlers get reigns? Are thI y wrestlers or not?

[Derek B]

How do you know if a worker is someone’s regen? Also does someone regen when they retire or die, e.g Sam strong is retired, so will he get one when he dies? And do non wrestlers/ retired wrestlers get reigns? Are thI y wrestlers or not?

 

1. A regular regen takes on the nationality, weight, style and image of the wrestler they are generated from. The original worker can be set so that their picture isn't used, but the rest of the information still is. So the most obvious way is just seeing their picture being used again, but the workers generally debut one year after the person they regen from so you can also check from that.

 

2. I think workers are regenned both when they retire from in-ring competition and when they die (unless that happens on the same day). It certainly worker like that last time I checked. I think legacies can do the same too, though under regular conditions that means workers might generate two workers around 25 years apart.

 

3. People set as retired wrestlers generate new worker as wrestlers... non-wrestlers (people who never wrestled) will generate new workers as non-wrestlers, so a referee who never wrestled would generate another referee... whereas a referee who was set to be a retired wrestler would generate a wrestler instead of a referee.

 

Hope that helps.

Im looking for a tag team name for a strong arrogant heel and slimy genius heel. Any ideas?

[Hazemore]

Thanks Derek, and does anyone know what to do with drug addicts? Aaron Andrews and Marcus DuBois are really annoying me, and my backstage rating is poor. Also, I can’t get DuBois to move up weight so hopefully he won’t be flabby anymore, apart from the editor is there anyway to encourage him?

[foolinc]

Quick Question. Do you enter regional battles when you hit 11.0% or 11.1%?

[Hazemore]

Lul ok, so will DuBois never want to change size? And is there anyway to try to get a worker to get out of retirement? I know u can set them as a personality and use them then, but they will still be considered retired

[Swoop7]

<p>My UC always get a penalty "was penalised for struggling to perform to a level worthy of a slow build". I thought each wrestler need to have high Basics and Psychology for slow build matches but my UC have 87 Basics 90 Psychology so I dont understand why he gets slow build penalty</p><p> </p><p>

Can Tag Team chemistry be discovered in 3 vs. 3 matches?

[Jon The GOAT]

<p>What should I be looking for when trying to sign guys willing to do Very High Risk matches? </p><p> </p><p>

Also, does it matter if a wrestler complains about not being suited to a match. As in, will it hurt their morale if I keep using them there?</p>
