The TCW Thread

[Gungner]

Makes sense...

[Gungner]

So my second PPV went well, helped nicely along by the main-event. (Bare in mind, this is my very first attempt at the C-Verse):

<p>I would argue that Total Mayhem XX was an absolute success:</p><p>

<p>What’s Andrews’ popularity right now?</p><p> </p><p>

Btw, speaking of Andrews, am I the only one who always changes his finisher? A flying crossbody seems kinda lame for a world champ</p>

[Gungner]

After losing to Bach, Andrews' pop is 88 across the US and Canada.

For exampling Flying Crossbody is a flying crossbody. A DDT is just a DDT. But for things like Aldous Blackfriar's Bat Wings, unless you download Wrestling Spirit and see what the description of the move is, it's totally up to you what it actually is in your gameplay. </p><p> </p><p> That said, the Ace Crusher name I stole from Johnny Ace as southside_hitmen stated, who invented the "cutter" move. Sometimes I give Aaron the Ace Crusher #2 which is the Famouser. Also invented by Johnny Ace. </p><p> </p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-username="southside_hitmen" data-cite="southside_hitmen" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="41343" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>Ace Crusher is from Johnny Ace (Lauranitas) in AJPW.

For someone who is relatively new to the Cornellverse, what's the difference between the All Action title and the Cruiserweight title?

It's also a good way to bring up guys like Leroy (Sayeed Ali)</p>

<p>Just ended my first six months with TCW, and my first real C-Verse save. It's now July, and the road for Summer Showdown is on. Excessive Force is in the books, scoring the second highest grade so far with a 97/A*, owing especially to Joshua Taylor defeating Bryan Vessey in a 97 rated match. In the main-event, Sammy Bach defeated Aaron Andrews in a 95 rated match.</p><p> </p><p>

Moving on to Summer Showdown, the Bach/Andrews feud will end, but I have no idea who Bach will feud with for the World title. Thinking Khoklov. The All-Action title will make its return and be on the line in a six-man ladder match. The Behemoths will finally lose their titles, and to Dazzling Dave Diamond and Giant Tana. They will lose the titles next month to Andrews and Hawkins. Chord will defend his International title against Spencer Spade, in a rematch from Excessive Force. </p><p> </p><p>

All in all, I'm really enjoying TCW and the C-Verse in general</p>

[Gungner]

Just signed Primus Allen to a development deal, when SWF wouldn't offer him a new deal. So let's see how this one goes... could be interesting to have him go up against Khoklov or RDJ.

[DatIsraeliGuy]

I’m interested to see what’s you time decline situation, since Bryan Vessey in a 97 rated match sounds like a dream

[RingRider]

<p>Had my best CVerse game in TEW 16 with TCW. I've always loved their product best in the game.</p><p> </p><p>

However, 2 years in, I'm International and have bought out GCG and PGHW... I'm easily winning National Battles (headed up by Rocky, Sammy, Remo, Wolf and Andrews). I have 2 developmental territories, a brand split, etc.</p><p> </p><p>

Now that I'm here however, I find myself losing interest in the save. Being on top of the world is no fun with no challenges left. My only issues are trying to integrate the Japanese talent I've bought out so they catch up to my other headliners. The other problem is, with the full roster and brand split, 2 A shows (each 2 hours a piece) I feel like I'm slogging through at snail's pace now.</p><p> </p><p>

Might be time to restart with a new save...maybe even a dynasty (which TCW is way under-represented in the Dynasty section IMO)</p>

Cheap plug opportunity!

 

You might not know based on the thread title, but have a multiplayer dynasty going with TCW with Uncrewed, HRTVAndrew, and willr0ck here: WIRE: Kings of Wrestling [CVerse - Multiplayer]

 

Just finished March with Just Another Day?

 

 

walrus also also a more lucha-themed take on TCW here: http://greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=540786

Wait are these spoilers for WIRE?

 

@Gungner, Bryan Vessey is a tremendous worker, I wasn’t surprised he got 97 because of his skills, but because hes almost always in time decline when i play TCW.

I’m also not sure how you got behind Taylor like that, I just never find anything for him to do, he’s so boring

So I had him finish the feud he starts with (Hawkins, right?), then I moved him onto Andrews (lost the three title matches he had), and now Vessey. I guess I just see him as a main-eventer, I don't really find him boring. <img alt=":)" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> I just pair him with another main-eventer or UM to feud with.</p>

[Matt_Black]

<p>I started a new TCW game last night, modifying the product slightly to be pop = performance, and for the first time ever, I won the national battle in the first month. Admittedly, yes I did hire Khoklov and Peter Michaels.</p><p> </p><p>

The only thing I did that was majorly different was, when adding a Saturday Night Showcase as the second A show, I decided to not go to a huge network. "The Pop Network is small, so let's baby steps here and go to one with medium coverage."</p>

[Gungner]

<p>I did some "cheating" as well, and I also won the national battle the first month and has done so ever since, leaving only me and SWF to fight it out. I hired Khoklov (which was enough) and Michaels, plus I adjusted the product to pop>perf, got a B-show and moved to a bigger company... So all that helped ofcourse. </p><p> </p><p>

I'm about halfway through august, and on the way to Hotter Than Hell! Loving my first real C-Verse playthrough <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>

[Gungner]

I started a development territory on the first day of gameplay without editing any money. Yes, it's a good chunk out of the coffin but I've made more than up for it.
