The Dev Journal is back and I was glad to read about the "At Ringside" Road Agent note, finally we can have someone wrestle a match and have more than a single person on their corner.

[TeemuFoundation]

<p>Love the new notes, man! Especially the "At Ringside" one! It seems small, but it's something I've always really, really wanted to have in the game. I believe I've suggested it more than once, too. Great to finally have this included! <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p>

Are we still limited to 20 notes?</p>

[Darin Walker]

I can now realize my dream of a pay-per-view with nothing but matches ending in Dusty finishes. I'm so happy right now.

[DatIsraeliGuy]

Regarding the new road agent notes, is there still a limit of 10 notes or has that been expanded? Usually it's not a problem but in multi men matches, especially battle royals, it very much becomes one

[01gognaa]

With respect to the "At Ringside" note, will having a worker appear at ringside advance his angle with the worker in the match?

This made me laugh a bit, because it did, let's be honest, but you are actually right. It is pretty awesome. Small changes like these are the ones that sometimes don't seem important but change a lot of the game's dynamics.

partner miscommunication finish hell yes. every day the wait for this game gets more and more excruciating

<p>How come this game is still being developed in that archaic system? Come on, its 2019 and lots of people dont really have the time to seat in front of their PC and play a game. </p><p> </p><p>

I believe that the revenue of such a great and detailed game released on smartphones would be ten times bigger. Its basically an upgraded game of the TEW 2004 code. I am a big supporter of Adam Ryland and I appreciate his work, but its time to move on with the times!! Those new additions seem to be great, but sadly, its not for me anymore. Its like releasing a new game for the original PlayStation system in 2020. Ridicolous.</p>

There are plenty of users who play it on convertible laptops/tablets, and I couldn't imagine playing this without a full qwerty keyboard, doc and spreadsheet access, etc.</p>

[franticloser]

<p>Yeah, I'm going to second that. So, many people still like to sit at their PC to play games. The Sim genre being one of the bigger markets on the PC. And to compare mobile/PC with PSX/PS4/5 is not even apt. I find mobile games to be like the Wii library a bunch of cash grabs with barely any game play (I mean look at the Google Play Store and 95% is either match 3 or Idle clickers) With maybe a couple of games worth playing that are generally ports of games from the consoles/PC. By your logic RDR2 just have just been a mobile game because who has time to sit on their couch and play a console game?</p><p> </p><p>

Don't get me wrong I'd like to see something of this nature come out on a mobile platform, but as the above poster said, it would be incredibly paired down. I would instead like to see if Adam would be willing to partner with a mobile publisher to release a mobile EWR. EWR has far fewer features and might be able to at least test the waters and see how well it can go over. </p><p> </p><p>

The other issue is these games thrive on the modding community and I'm not sure how that would work with mobile platforms, which is something I don't think has been brought up before. If anyone here develops for APKs or whatever the Apple framework is, can chime in to expound on if mods would be possible that would be great!</p>

I love the additional finishes like double pinfall. Any chance we can get variations on that? Like a double elimination for over the top battle royals/royal rumbles? Or a double pinfall by 2 of 3 competitors in a 3 way match, making the 3rd competitor win by default?

I really hope we're going to be able to go back and see the details of a show. What I mean is, if I run a show, then play for a few more weeks, I'd like to be able to go to the Show History and not only see the result, but, if I double-click on a segment (match or angle) I want to be able to see the details (the match notes, how long the match lasted, road agent notes, etc)

No big deal either way.</p>

[WCGreyghost]

I like the new road agent notes. A good Dusty Finish, if used sparingly (like oregano) can spice things up a bit....

It would be cool to have some kind of way to indicate that a superstar was making a return after a lengthy absence, or that a popular superstar was making their debut in a new company

Any chance of allowing a remote database connection, to allow for easier multiplayer? Unsure if the game's code could accommodate local resources with a remote database. If not, maybe a way to fetch a remote database? Plugin a URL and import? I haven't been playing long, but the more I play the more I think a multiplayer save would be amazing. Trying to think of how we could make it easier.
