BuddyGarner Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Yes on the improvement to angles. I doubt it'll be perfect in the first go around but great to see angles getting some love and not just matches in terms of complexity.

Henderson Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 <p>I hope the TV ratings are reverted back to the old way. Still to this day when running a TV show, I cannot stand getting ratings in the 20's. I hope they are separated out again by the country.</p><p> </p><p> I also hope there is more consistency in agent notes and workers. For example, Randy Savage is known historically to be a fantastic non-scripted interviewer. It's pretty annoying to randomly get the report that "Randy Savage did not do well while trying to improvise dialogue." Workers are either good or not good at working without a script. Sure, some interviews or promos may not "click" as well as others but it could be relayed in a better way. Perhaps give them the note that they were "off their game" instead.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMPunk Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Know what I miss from all the old games? Being able to assign a creative team, I'd like to see more involved behind the scene staff. I want to make a writing team and have them pitch to me storyline ideas, I want a head road agent and a smaller team of road agents under that head and have them report issues with any talent. I want a creative team that suggests to me turns and possible gimmick changes. I want to be able to send scouts to other regions and have them come back with reports on possible talents I could sign and build and mold into stars. I want to be able to sign a head of security and get reports of anything out of the ordinary, this could be useful when other promotions try to use dirty tactics. Hell, even being able to appoint a senior referee would be cool. Even better if we did a brand split and each brand had it's own staff. I think all and all, I miss Sophie. Sorry if any of this has been posted before, I'm coming back from a extended stay in the hospital and haven't gotten around to reading all the posts yet.

Cold Cobra Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 <p>Wow, I think it's going to take a little while for today's entry to sink in, but it sounds great! I never really thought about the process of assigning people positions on the card as being unrealistic, but this system does make a lot more sense. People don't literally get given a badge to say what push they're currently in, and having someone e-mail me saying "I should be a mid-carder, rather than lower mid" was odd, now I think about it. Complaints about how they've been pushed or a turn that went wrong, yeah, but not getting hung up on card position names.</p><p> </p><p> Still, this is the first entry that really, properly shows how big of a change this game is going to be. Assigned pushes have been around since EWR, so this is nearly two decades worth of "how things are done" out of the window!</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirMichaelJordan Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 <p>I’ve beeen wanting some sort of overness rating that separates from popularity!</p><p> </p><p> Fans can now reject Roman (poor booking) enough for him to not reach major star level (Cena) but yet still be one of the most popular guys on the roster.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> Interesting to see how hard/easy it is to get a roster full of major stars. I hope how you book a specific gimmick plays a bigger role. Will a worker in a baby face role that’s book like a baby face but doesn’t perform well in that position, will he get over quickly if booked to win? A brute that isn’t being book like one but yet still win all of his matches in close fights, will he get over quickly?</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lavelleuk Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 <p>Today's entry is a massive one and sounds fantastic! Much more realistic, sounds more natural too. Would be great for aging stars too, now they hang around in main events way past their best due to be popular, I'm assuming now they still remain just as popular but will still slide down the card as age gets the better of them. </p><p> </p><p> 2020 really is going to be on a whole new level by the sounds of it already!</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EBEZA Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 I'd actually like to see a combination of this new system and the existing "assigned push" system. The one flaw I see with this new system is that I can't see "Zack Ryder situations" or, conversely, "Jinder Mahal situations" surfacing in-game.

Given Ryder really got over on the internet rather than on screen I would argue it isn't replicated now anyway. You would need an equivalent to movies/mma for social media to drive his pop up. - possibly a tag/attribute in 2020</p><p> </p><p> On jinder that's an example of a company pushing someone who got popular in certain markets although arguably not in the home market as they intended. From what I saw in the Asian markets he mostly got over especially in India which arguably was the whole point of the exercise :-)</p><p> </p><p> Personally I am really looking forward to seeing what all these changes bring to the game when it comes together. It is sounding really interesting and more engaging at the moment. I suspect there are lots of nuances not apparent in these changes until we get hands on and see how they work out. I would also expect some to radically change as the game develops and something's dont work as anticipated requiring a change.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter.1986 Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 <p>Today’s entry is great with one issue</p><p> </p><p> First of all the way Adam has explained it sounds much more realistic. This is a massive change in the game and sounds like it’s for the better.</p><p> </p><p> The only issue I have (there maybe something added that solves this) is that pushes being assigned actually helped me so much in terms of booking, knowing who was where on the roster and sorting my roster out. If I have a roster of just 20 major stars, I haven’t got 20 main eventers. Even thought the fans would buy it, the roster would still be structured to have openers etc. </p><p> </p><p> Like I said there maybe another way to do it, but is there the possibility the old way of sorting your roster (and autopushes) could benthere, purely for arranging the roster? It wouldn’t be ‘visible’ to the world eg fans/workers.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
