franticloser Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 I'm looking forward to the live journal, every new iteration of the EW series has been filled with great updates to the game. Adam has a way of building hype perfectly for it to peak at just the right time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazorbeak Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 Really hoping we get some changes to the way ppa vs written contracts are worked out, especially when it comes to fed size. The way it is in TEW 2016, basically everybody on a ppa makes at least 5 times what they should per show, which ends up causing every low level promotion (and even medium touring promotions) in historical sims to instantly bankrupt themselves. It'd be great if the system was balanced to allow more creative control for the workers and less income demands to simulate running a merch table instead of promotion specific merchandise.

RatedRKO16 Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 What I'm looking forward to, in a broad sense, is a game that is more user friendly with more depth than previous TEW. I really am just hoping the learning curve isn't too steep. Also, the more customization in the game, the better. From reading the diary, it seems Adam is on the right track in all the above. I've got the itch to play again for the first time in 5 years. Fingers crossed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeemuFoundation Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 April-July seems like such a long wait, but good things come to those who are patient. I like the fact that the threads for product and attribute suggestions will be opened so early; this allows for people to think up and suggest all the products they want, so once the game comes out, the experience is already going to be as complete as possible. The apparent scope of the game makes me very optimistic that this is going to be an awesome TEW experience. Looking forward to still hearing about new features through August!

awesomenessofme1 Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 Adam did say at the beginning of the journal that it was originally planned for a summer 2020 release and he just thought it might be released earlier. I guess that ended up not being the case. Still, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a bit disappointed. I'd gotten my hopes up for a 2019 release.

nerodragomir1 Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 April/July is a long time away. I personally am willing to wait though. I'm a firm believer in letting someone take their time to make something amazing, instead of rushing a half baked product out to please the people. As much as it will suck, waiting another year for the best TEW game ever will be worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaySticLe of YouTube Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 Yeah, it’s the Nintendo philosophy. I’d much rather wait a year for a great, highly polished product than get a half assed product cranked out because some folks want it much sooner.

RingRider Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 I imagine it's hard for Adam to predict when it will actually be completed with any degree of certainty... Who can say what will happen once testing begins? If it all runs smoothly, probably an earlier release. If testing and leveling goes a bit more awry then it'll take longer. My guess is he played it safe and is giving himself maximum flexibility on the release schedule so no one tries to hold his feet to the fire to rush it out.

My guess is he played it safe and is giving himself maximum flexibility on the release schedule so no one tries to hold his feet to the fire to rush it out. These were my thoughts as well. As he said in the post, there is no way to gauge how long testing will take. For me, there is no issue for waiting since I am very confident that this will be the best TEW in the series. As others have said, waiting for a much more polished game is better than releasing one that still needs tuning. On another note,I'm very excited for the attributes suggestion thread to be opened up. There are many from WMMA5 that can be plopped into TEW and I'm sure there are some really unique ones that can be conjured up. As for the products, I am still shaky about how the new system will play out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChairToFace Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 Even though it's a long wait, based on the things covered in the journal already it'll be a wait that's worth it. Maybe we'll end up having a little Christmas in July. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

born_naughty Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 That feeling when you realize how far away the game's release still is. Yeah, how mean is Adam, huh? In his original journal post he said TEW2020 might come as soon as christmas 2019. Now he's talking about april-july 2020. Seriously though, I rather have him taking his time for a complete product. I don't want an unfinished product, nor do I want people crunching themselves to death for a release as seems to be standard affair in videogame land.

TeemuFoundation Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 The original aim was to release the game in the summer of 2020. However, things have been progressing so well that I suspect we may now be looking a little earlier than that, possibly even Christmas 2019. You'll be reading about the progress in the upcoming developer's journal, and so the release date will be clearer as we move through the next year. It was never a promise. And he clearly stated that the release date would be clearer towards the end of this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FINisher Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 It'll come when it comes. I have zero problem with it being delayed. The next one after that, if ever there would be one, would be years apart from the 2020 release so I want this iteration to be the best TEW game there ever was. “A delayed game is eventually good, a bad game is bad forever.” ― Shigeru Miyamoto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZSR23 Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 Some things I did not see referred to them or I missed them: 1) in Tournaments like G1 did not penalised a score for a match with both wrestlers FACE OR HEEL 2) A bonus in popularity (or special situation) for a wrestler who makes his debut or returns after a long period (injuries etc.) 3) Do not penalised the ratings of the match if the two wrestlers are not in rivalry but can provide a good fight 4) booking the rivalry you want for your long-term development territory without making a booking for any weekly show 5) More options to see who are the top wrestlers in the game and what are the best matches, not just at the end of the year. Maybe make a monthly summary? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe loading times would be bigger for Asia divided into 2 or 3 regions, I dunno.
