The features you wanted that didn't make the cut


Recommended Posts

<p>There's a few UI issues still left fom TEW 13. Starting storylines and booking angles are still really clunky compared to booking matches. Everything should be drag and drop. </p><p> </p><p>

Also not being able to change match types on the fly is still incredibly annoying.</p>

I would say that the one feature that I've wanted to see TEW come out with is the ability to run a child / development company. Having to deal with a different set of owner goals to prepare workers for the next level. I'd imagine you could get an e-mail from your parent company a month or two before they plan to call someone up (similar to how someone leaves for band tours, MMA fights and movies). That would give you plenty of time to finish whatever story you had going on before they head off to the main roster.

 

Don't get me wrong. I absolutely love the amount of control we get as a parent company now. But I'll always want to run a child / development company in TEW. It would be a really fun challenge. Especially if down the road (due to good booking), you were offered the booking job for the parent company. This would make TEW much more career-oriented in my eyes. I've never wanted to book SWF, but if I ran RIPW for a few years and had a ton of awesome workers called up, I'd probably want to keep working with them if offered the big gig.

 

What I'd love even more is if I was running MAW and we were approached by a bigger promotion (USPW/TCW) to become their child promotion.

 

Dont know if this has been mentioned, but searching for Tag Teams would be a really handy feature.

 

I would love to have that feature. Searching for tag teams has been my biggest problem with TEW for years.
