Jomosensual Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Can the people who beta tested the game at least tell us about the game or is that a no no? Not sure what they'd be able to say that we dont already know from the journal. They havent touched the Cornellverse I dont think and we know all the new features Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrJeeps Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Congratulations. There's a lot of users who happen to be teachers on the board too (like me!). If you need help, advice, resources, etc. don't be afraid to give a shout out! Now back the originally scheduled hype train... Also a teacher! 13 years at it. Special Ed. Can't wait to do Local to Global Baby. Martyr and Anders Thunder are going to rule my universe!!! Who would be a good character to play as...I'm looking for someone ambitious enough to start his or her own company, but have no money to do it with.

Munit Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Nah, disagree massively. The fact is, we know when we’re dealing with Grey Dog they don’t make commitments they can’t or won’t meet. We also know this isn’t Sony or EA, who can commit to exact times months in advance. If the game is available for download a minute to midnight Arizona time, GDS have done exactly what they said they would. At no point did anyone commit to the demo being available as soon as the calendar says April 23, and I think everyone knew that wouldn’t be the case. This really isn’t a big deal, honestly. The game is almost certainly going to satisfy the overwhelming majority of us. The wait, the tension, the wondering, it’s all part of the experience. Enjoy it. I think you both have valid points tbh. Someone has the right to complain as long as it follows board rules. I'm fine with waiting myself tho with no complaints Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarryFandango86 Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Looking forward to this today. I’m another who wants to thank Adam for all the work that’s gone into this game, I’m sure it will be as good as any other title before it. The dev journal has been an interesting thing to follow.

pat666 Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 I really hope if the demo comes out before I'm done working that the 'Post random Screenshot' Thread will be made, so I'll be able to check some screenshots before I get home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlatYellow Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 I'm pretty excited for today, once I get home from work I can mess around with the demo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sd_jones Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 do you think they have adequately anticipated the demand? I feel like the game is more popular than ever and combining that with everyone being cooped up... people are super looking forward to this.

Levinux Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Lots of emotions with this release in conjunction with many being stuck at home and having the time to jump on immediately. One thing to keep in mind here is no one knows the details or what is going on behind the scenes. Similar to someone having a bad day and us not knowing what they are going through to cause it, we need patience. This game is going to be fantastic as you all know. Just like Bischoff, who waited to have Hogan v Goldberg on a PPV...wait...wrong example... Just like Bischoff, who waited to have Hogan v Sting on a PPV, we must also be patient. I look forward to all the awesome discussions this game will bring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Bombadil Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Oh I didn't know we had a buncha education types here! I am also an education type. I have Zoom calls with some of my kids this afternoon and I am super psyched to see them but also super sad because that is like the exact window of time that we're guessing the demo to drop lol.

TwoCount Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 What are the main attributes you guys look for when signing new workers? I set up a thread in the TEW2016 section. This is the only thing that I’m still not to familiar with and need help with as it’s not as simple as having one overall rating such as in ewr 4.2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are starting a new fed, you can get tons of great Euro and Aussie workers into your fed for like 250 bucks a show. They will get over like gangbusters.

sneakybear Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 So excited for the game! My demand and interest has piqued because I never really explored the Cverse until last game, I'm done with classes and stuck inside, and it seems this game's changes are big! Playing the waiting game for the beta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the only thing that I’m still not to familiar with and need help with as it’s not as simple as having one overall rating such as in ewr 4.2 Star quality and psychology for me, although with the changes to star quality this time around then it's going to be less important.

This is the only thing that I’m still not to familiar with and need help with as it’s not as simple as having one overall rating such as in ewr 4.2 The other posters have good advice so follow their points too but it also partially depends on your product. A guy with slightly more pop in a pop > performance fed may perform better with slightly worse in-ring talent than a guy with less pop. And also like if your promotion has "Key Features" in Lucha or Daredevil, the Aerial skill is probably more likely to be important than in other feds.

Jaded Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Can you give me the TL: DR version of the star quality change? In 2016 it's pretty static, main way of going up is if they increase in size. According to journal, this time around it can increase early in a worker's career as they gain more confidence and there are more random events that affect it as well.

This wasn't me saying that people should complain. This was me stating that if people do complain then they have a right. Like I said, about time I get home, the game will be out. But people in here are saying that others shouldn't be frustrated. No matter if they are Sony, EA, Chucklefish or a startup, gamers should know when the game is coming out and shouldn't have to guess. It is something they need to figure out and fix. It is one of their only problems. If it's a server issue, then they need to fix that. They've been putting out games for close to 2 decades now. There is no excuse for it. I won't complain about it but if you can't see how that would be frustrating to others then I don't think I'll be able to get this point across to you.
