WrestleManiac Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Could I use the Touring shows to replicate TV tapings like the original ECW used to do without actually having a touring schedule? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've been bugging him for awhile about being able to run TV Tapings and get multiple shows in the can all at once. If he figured out a way to make it work, that may be a future announcement for TEW 2020. If it is, you won't need to worry about using touring shows for that, because you'll be able to schedule your TV Tapings and do it that way.</p><p> </p><p> Here's to hoping!</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoganRodzen Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 <p>You could potentially run your own house shows with this new "Event Intent" feature. Possibly a new way to try out matches between people, check tag teams out, etc. without the penalties. </p><p> </p><p> I feel like every version of TEW makes me say, "there is no way Adam can top this." Adam simply says, "hold my beer and watch." <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianc2008 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 So I guess you could replicate house shows under this new feature (Lesser intent) and something like Tribute to the Troops (Throwaway Intent) as well? Neat! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the way to get your promotion an event like Wrestle Kingdom, where it's built up over the years to the point that the event itself is a draw.</p><p> </p><p> Intent seems to be designed so that someone like myself, who likes to run companies with a Puro flavor, can set the scheduled events to be on whatever level they're supposed to be. </p><p> </p><p> For instance, right now, if I book a Kingdom Road tour leading up to my Championship Kingdom event, it's possible for Championship Kingdom to event to gain Importance (Prestige), but not my tour shows, unless I leave them on my schedule and just alter the dates for the next year.</p><p> </p><p> However, the game thinks that my tour shows should be providing the same quality as the major event that they build to, which in the industry currently, doesn't match up.</p><p> </p><p> Intent will allow us to book our tour shows as such, so that the game doesn't demand the same quality and we can properly load them with multi-man tags and lesser wrestlers without getting penalized, or as heavily. Those shows won't draw the same sized crowds as major events, but they also won't require that you book a main event and semi-main event that pull the same type of overall numbers as the main and semi-main's that you would be scheduling for your major show.</p><p> </p><p> It's going to be great, because in the game I'm playing now, I need B- quality for all of my shows, which means that my Road To (build-up) shows are requiring matches that are as good as what my major events look for.</p><p> </p><p> Wrestle Kingdom is a good example, in that it's being headlined by Kenny Omega Vs Hiroshi Tanahashi, but the main events of the Road to Tokyo Dome Shows, while very good, were not the same quality that we're going to get from Kenny and Tana on January 4th. The matches in the Road to shows are almost throwaway bouts, but they also help to prepare the workers, advance storylines and get guys in the ring against people they otherwise may not have the chance to work with.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teh_Showtime Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 The only thing that would make it better is if we could set AI booking levels for each type of show (normal, TV, tour, etc) which can load up lesser shows with tags.

Cult3 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 It would be nice if we could have someone like Mustafa Ali debut and a week later pin the champion without having the champion complain about it.

Juce Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 <p>This new feature with the PM booking while maybe minor could be huge for real world mods. I am really looking forward to seeing this in action.</p><p> </p><p> As for the control over events I really like this. Whether booking "house" shows or just some filler shows between big events this could be great!</p><p> </p><p> Loving everything as usual from these diary entries. I appreciate the insight into these features too.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even then morale is so easy in game that 10-20k to fix it might totally be worth not taking the match penalty and just doing it with a furious worker altogether.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skummy Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-username="TsuMirren" data-cite="TsuMirren" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="46105" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>On the save to mod feature.<p> </p><p> Why haven't people just been releasing save games?</p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> Because it might not just be the player's experience that's of interest. Ten years into a save, for example, the entire game world would have changed beyond recognition - within that, I might not want to play as the same user character as the person who's save it originally was, with all the relationships they've built up over the course of the game, but I might want to have a stab at booking the promotion they've built, or a rival promotion within that world, as a wholly different character.</p><p> </p><p> It's a great addition for people who write diaries/dynasties - to be able to reach a point where the diary ends, and then release the data for someone else to pick up the baton and continue the story. Or, if I've booked a '90s WWF diary for a while and grown tired of it, I could release the data and have someone have the option of picking up where I left off, or playing as that "universe's" WCW and competing with the WWF I created.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this will mean the ability to make changes that you couldn't in the editor you have during a game and we will be able to carry saves over to future iterations of the game.l (e.g. TEW 2020 to 2022).</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K-Nection Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 It certainly has been my most requested feature. Now it looks like I don't have to kill a save with a new polished tew going forward. I can just clean up what's screwed up by database conversion and pick up where I left off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
