ksdixon Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 From an already started game, I can't work-out how/where to set a retired wrestler active again? I've gone into in-game editor in options tab, and set it to the 'wrestler' tickbox, but it still says retired wrestler on the wrestler's page.

Samuraj Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 Do we know yet what goes into determining a single worker's "in-ring performance" rating during a show? That seems to be the main thing holding back my card average, people are just turning in mid-60 performances creating mid-60 matches unless they're my top guys.

Malioc Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 Not a question, but a funny incident. In my Backstage Incidents during an event one of my tag teams just offered to put themselves over. (The screen showed pictures of the two, but explicitly said "Los Brujos Infernale" to put over "Los Brujos Infernale".) The bug didn't appear in my "promise" section and doesn't hurt. But it's a funny imagination. - Maybe I should test the two for drugs?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Venix Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 are all child companies automatically developmental? i'm trying to just have a company like in the last game where I open it and it hires practically everyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Waylon Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 I think I have what might be a bug, but I want to bring it here first. I have a multi-level developmental setup. I have two companies in two regions. I have built a venue in each region that I intended for those companies to use as their own to help keep costs down. In their schedule I have set them up to both have weekly events and set the fixed area to the proper region, and the fixed venue to my owned venues in those regions. The companies continue to run events in other venues, though. Anyone know why this is happening? The venues are both set up for 5,000 capacity (I use them when I tape my B shows every 3 weeks) and they are both drawing between 1,000 and 1,500 a show. Is it because the AI isn't expecting 5,000? Even if they're not expecting 5,000 I still want them to run those buildings because it should be at a discounted cost, which helps me at the end of the month.

Adam Ryland Posted July 17, 2020 Author Share Posted July 17, 2020 Owned venues are only available to the company listed as the owner, it does not pass on to children or developmental promotions too. Your setting would therefore be ignored as it is invalid / illegal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Ryland Posted July 17, 2020 Author Share Posted July 17, 2020 are all child companies automatically developmental? No. You can see from any of the company relationship subscreens whether two companies have a developmental agreement or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xqwzyt Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 I'm curious about the "lucha de apuesta" stipulation... has anyone booked it yet? Do you have the option for the luchador to unmask after they lose the match, I already talked to the worker and they said they were willing to unmask if it was lucha de apuesta or they received a bonus. I just don't want to run the match, then have everyone annoyed he didn't unmask after losing the match... Thanks! 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't want to run the match, then have everyone annoyed he didn't unmask after losing the match... Thanks! All the time. You have to set the "Lucha Apuesta" and "Unmask" notes inside your RoadAgent section during a match. If a worker agreed before in "Talking", you should be fine. It's not very expensive either. I usually paid $6,000 to $12,500. The fans will only be disappointed when you forget to add a mask OR hair loss. When you prebook you can only set Apuesta, which creates the danger to forget the actual loss the show day. Finally, if you like the gimmick, you can do it very often with hair losses. Most male workers have no problem with it (if they have any hair), it costs the same and you don't need to sacrifice a mask, that takes years to build rep, permanently.

PaulDangerous Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Know this will have been asked and answered before so apologies for re-asking but I'm a bit of a newbie! I'm putting on 2 1/2 - 3hr shows. Whatever I do, the main event always has a note that the crowd is burned out. I've booked 'calm the crowd' matches before it - sometimes even to the extent that I'll have the following structure: Calm Reg match Calm Reg match Calm Main Event Even with 3 calms in the preceding 5 matches I cannot stop the crowd from being burned out. Is there any way at all to mitigate this or is it simply that anything over 2 hours is inevitably going to result in burnout? Appreciate any help, sorry for repeating a question!

Burn out has its own section in the handbook. In short, the cut off is 3 hours, but it counts pre/post-show time and any shows you run in the same day add up.

JoMo Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 Is there any possibility to rehire a worker that was fired a couple of months ago? In the former TEW Versions ot took six months and then you could hire the worker back if he doesn't have a negative relationship with you. In TEW 2020 I fired a worker (PPA - ongoing contract) in March and try to hire him back in October - but I get the following answer: ".... has rejected your negotiations because he isn't interested in returning to..." Any way to change that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owen Rey Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 How does the game determine which matches are important? I'm booking matches that are a team of a Major Star and a few Stars against a team of unimportants who have never won a match. Gave them 10 minutes at first since that's what I always did in TEW 16, just want to get the young guys in the ring to help them grow. However, this year it's saying that "the match was too short for a match that fans consider important" So I decided to bump it up, seeing where this goes. I put it at 15 minutes and still got the message. Then later in the same show, I had a tag title match in the midcard featuring a team of Major Stars vs. a team of Well Known. This was given 17 minutes, which is not a short amount of time for a midcard match, yet I got the message that the fans thought it was too short for a match the fans consider important! I feel like that note shouldn't be existing for midcard matches unless it's somehow Major Star vs. Major Star in a singles. It's a silly note in it's current implementation.

I feel like that note shouldn't be existing for midcard matches unless it's somehow Major Star vs. Major Star in a singles. It's a silly note in it's current implementation. It will usually depend on your product. Some products do not want matches longer than 15 minutes, and will sag your ratings. Other products do not want matches shorter than 5 minutes, shorter than 10, shorter than 15, shorter than 20. So your individual product will determine how long a match must be. What matches matter? Someone, correct me if I am wrong! 1. Any match featuring a "Major Star" vs "Star" or higher. If you don't have any Stars or Major Stars, it would be the most important you do have. 2. Any main event match, title match, top storyline match. On your product screen, SCROLL DOWN all the way. Sometimes, the list isn't big enough for all the things a product does to you. And I have had to change products to be allowed to perform matches longer than 15 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingCostly Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 What pros/cons are there to choosing the 'generic venue' option when booking your venue? I'm often left deciding if I want to book an arena below my expected attendance to ensure I have a sell out or booking a bigger place that will increase costs and have some empty seats. Does 'generic venue' ensure that you will have a sell out with the maximum amount of fans? Does it cost more? Any advice on this would be appreciated!

Malioc Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 Run shows in other regions of Europe or wait for the spillover popularity to raise you very slowly. Both options seem REALY time-consuming.
