HailSabin1660846285 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 As the title says. Being that the crowds reject almost all the segments and angles, do I really need storylines and feuds, or can I.. how to say it, build them in my head?

Morti Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 Depends on if mainstream is at the "heavy" level on the product Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaysin Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 Your product will tell you if you need storylines. Hit the analysis button on the product screen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't want penalties dinging your ratings, then you have one of two choices: keep the storylines and angles in your head and do it that way, or switch up the product by adding a little bit of Traditional or something. You won't need to actually add storylines to the game, but changing the product should get rid of the penalties. Always look at the Analysis and Data Check on the Product screen whenever making a change to make sure you don't have any surprises when booking a show.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrokenCycle Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 Storylines are more of an organizational tool in this game. Their importance has been greatly diminished. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hashasheen Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 For a pure wrestling product, I think you'd have to treat it like a live indie event. You're just there for the athletic spectacle, not the story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moafnsteel Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 One of the nice things about storylines, even if they aren't required is that they help with keeping momentum higher (for those that do good in the storyline). Also they can give a boost or hurt the overall match grade depending on their heat. I dont know how much of an impact it has on the grade though.

Rone Rivendale Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 And you can absolutely have storylines that are just about the matches. You don't need any angles. Like Best of 7 series between 2 workers. Or just lump in the main event and call it "Chase for the title" It's all about your own creativity.

Blackman Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Not at all, but you can add generic segments with workers who have entertainment skills to boost their pop. Pop will add to the match grade and is ALWAYS good, unless you don't want your workers to get poached. Fans will only care for these if you have some silver tongues in your fed, which I highly doubt, as the AI will cherrypick them soon. But if you're really PURE, you should want to use all time you have to producing matches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, for a best of 7 series, you'd have to turn off repetitive match penalties, too. Title chase storylines, though, I do all the time, and I would say should be pretty much standard for any wrestling promotion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
