<p>How are you guys going to be treating the events you have your tournaments on? The addition of "Tour" intent means that touring shows are no longer able to be broadcasted, just tour highlights.</p><p> </p><p>

That could mean you'd have a lot of workers half-assing it. You're wasting big matches on shows that have 25% less revenue. </p><p> </p><p>

To be completely blunt:<strong> Is the game asking you to hamstrung yourself deliberately by using "tour" intent shows instead of "normal" intent shows?</strong> You stand to make INSANELY more money by going with normal intent shows and broadcasting them as opposed to using the "glorified house show" touring events & actively losing revenue.</p><p> </p><p>

This isnt to mention that so many events are broadcasted on company's streaming services nowadays that it's not really highlights but full on shows. </p><p> </p><p>

Im not one for exploits but I dont want the game to make me feel like I have to be dumb to avoid taking advantage of something very obvious. Is there something Im missing? The only justification I can see for touring events is to let your roster take it easy and to not have to try as hard, but that does not seem like sufficient enough a reason for the loss revenue, especially for a company as broke as PGHW.</p>

Just curious, does that mean that touring shows can still be broadcast in full? Had gotten the impression it was only highlights shows. I immediately switched to a regular schedule and outside of the weekly King's Road tv show, I just let house shows represent those throwaway tour shows, so I've not really played around with the touring schedule.

 

Would be nice if in a future TEW tour shows were all just treated like house shows but with the option to select specific dates to book as slightly bigger tour shows which can be broadcast on. The smaller shows could perhaps be broadcast too but only on company owned broadcasters.

 

No they cannot be broadcast in full which is why Im wondering if theres any point to them. They seem like their only purpose is to cut you off from actually making money. I'd like to know why I wouldnt be better off with going after a "Constant" schedule or something of that sort. Touring schedules just dont seem to make sense (again).

 

The handbook unfortunately isnt very clear on if theres any benefit to it either.

This does nothing to tell me why touring is worthwhile. There seems to be no benefit to it. Having to not try as hard is simply not much of a pro. The only value I can see is for people who tired of the puro booking schedule and can just use the autobooker because these shows "dont matter". In which case why not just implement touring closer to how house shows are done?

When it says "pay-per-show amounts on these shows are only 25% of normal", is that referring to how much you have to pay workers on PPA deals? If so, it seems like a way to work on skills, momentum, and to a lesser extent worker popularity cheaply and without risking pop losses.

 

Yeah I may have misread. It could be, I just dont see it as worth it.

 

Decided to fool around with PGHW a bit and ran three shows.

 

I ran a touring show with 850 attendance that got me a 57 and made me lose a bit of money. It was autobooked. The show probably tanked a bit because autobook AI is straight up stupid and keeps giving steal the show notes to matches over 20 minutes. I dont know why its not inherently plugged in to not book a match that the game itself says you shouldn't (steal the shows have all out notes which say dont go over 20). And honestly, the PGHW product is sort of counter intuitive since you need matches over 20 to not get penalized... but you're also expected to have a match that steals the show... and yet a "steal the show" match will typically not top a regular PGHW match because its basically either penalized for being too long or too short, no real right length. The product 100% needs work. OR at least rename Steal the Show since youd have to book other matches badly for Steal the Show to actually live up its name.

 

So next show was Kings Road, I autobooked again but took off steal the show and tossed it on a throwaway match. Attendance was around 2.7K and we made 200K+ on the show. So you're inherently better off just having a single Kings Road and not bothering with touring shows unless its to develop the roster or something. Show graded 66.

 

Finally turned a touring show into normal intent and had it air on Emperors Choice. Predictably we made millions of dollars and all our financial issues are gone within a week lmfao. Crowd attendance of almost 7k with a show grade of 75. Autobooked again. Obviously ppv return will diminish over time & was the predominant reason we're so rich but I think thats irrelevant. If I get to G1 period, there is no way Im going for "Tour Intent" Im 100% going for Normal Intent because thats how NJPW would treat it. So now Im going to be receiving approximately 6-7K in attendance for each of those shows & if I decide to broadcast it even on a smaller network like say Aichi, Im still likely getting around 200K income from that.

 

The other option is to stick with the money bleeding absurdly brainless touring schedule. I'll fully admit I could be wrong: maybe fatigue & injuries are a lot more intense and present in TEW '20 and your roster really cannot handle a schedule with normal intent shows on a regular basis. But right now Im going to air on the side of "take care of your workers and it wont really be that much of an issue".

 

I was under the impression that PGHW's financial situation put it in a tough spot this year but it doesnt. Its arguably the easiest Japanese company in the game since it already has insane talent and can recoup money very easily.

 

Im going to test out PGHW with the regular schedule + Kings Road, then probably try turning everything Normal Intent and airing it on a subscription network (for more realism instead of putting everything on PPV lol) and see what the big difference is in terms of healthiness, money & fatigue. I need fatigue to be so overwhelming that it justifies the regular schedule tbh.

You're looking at it the wrong way in terms of penalties.

 

It's like real life. Just because a match gets dinged for something doesn't mean other things won't make up for it.

 

Easiest real world example of this: Brock Lesnar vs. Goldberg from Mania whatever that was. I would say the notes on that looked like this: All Out/Steal the Show, Open Match, Decisive Finish, maybe crazy bump for the barricade spot. Match aim of Spectacle maybe, if you don't want to keep it regular. I haven't played with those much.

 

The Goldberg/Lesnar match was short. There was a reason it didn't go on last.

 

So if I'm booking PGHW and I am booking Seiji Jimbo/Chojiro Kitoaji alongside Kozue Kawashima/Ugaki, I'm more likely to book Kawashima/Ugaki as the longer slower co-main event (25-30 minutes maybe?) and then the title match would be a 10-15 minute Steal the Show match between Jimbo/Kitoaji.

 

(Or maybe that Kawashima/Ugaki gets better grades and next show you try moving around the placement of your slower/steal the show matches. Maybe throw it in an early tag match if you want your co-main and main to be longer matches.)

Having a go at PGHW and made a couple stables. I don't think there's a thread for random images yet so just gonna throw em here in case anybody wants to use them:

They look really cool dude I downloaded them :). What did you use to make them?

These are both very good! I'll be using them for sure in my game, thanks for sharing, perhaps you could make some event logo's sometime if you feel inclined, PGHW is lacking in that department!

 

Honestly if you could make the Destiny one just say "Night of X" with X replaced by the events given name, and then just change the color of the background for each event that would absolutely amazing, keep the font, keep the star keep everything about it, just change the one bit of text and the pick 12 colors and we are good to go! even if you only did the big ones PRIDE, GLORY, HONOUR & COURAGE that would be more than epic.

 

edit: sorry for dumping a massive gfx request on you out of the blue, I got a bit over-excited by how much I liked these!

How did you get that border effect? Did you just free hand draw it?

 

They're awesome. Definitely going to have a go at some stables with the same tool.

I was actually thinking about doing this tbh now that the school semester is wrapping up. Forgot to change the color though, might come back and add at least a little variation in the future.

 

Also if anyone wants to take a crack at making them, it's really easy. Just go to pixlr.com and I start with a 400x400 blank picture and just mess around till something looks acceptable.

 

(P.S.: Sorry for flooding the PGHW thread with these logos, I just thought it was weird that a huge company like PGHW still is being shipped without logos already in the game.)

 

Events:

PGHW-Courage.jpgPGHW-Destiny.jpgPGHW-Fortitude.jpgPGHW-Glory.jpgPGHW-Honour.jpgPGHW-Kings.jpgPGHW-Legacy.jpgPGHW-Pride.jpgPGHW-Respect.jpgPGHW-Strength.jpgPGHW-Warriors.jpgPGHW-Wrestling.jpg

Absolutely no need to change a thing here DeBosco, these are perfect, I'm over the moon happy to have these for my game, thank you so much! and Kuro-Gun and Pillars 2020 also EPIC!

 

Outstanding work that fills a much needed gap in PGHW.

 

Feel free to fill this thread with anything PGHW related no matter how big or small, I really appreciate the time you took to do this :)

I decided (like I have done in most iterations of the game) to change up PGHW's schedule. It's definitely a hybrid between "touring" and "constant" and uses a few events that were present back in 2005 but have been lost over the years.

 

Feel free to completely ignore or help improve or whatever you see fit. I'll go month-by-month; but some tours overlap. Tour shows have a "touring" intent, whilst tournament shows and 'big' shows have a "normal" intent.

 

January

Road to Respect (7 show tour)

RESPECT (Tour ending big show)

 

February

Destiny Calls (3 show mini-tour)

DESTINY (Tour ending big show)

Elite Series (First 4 events of the Elite Series)

 

March

Elite Series (Final 7 events of the Elite Series)

Night of PRIDE (Elite Series Final and Season Finale)

BARRAGE (New season kickoff show)

 

April

International Tour (3 show mini-tour internationally)

Resilience Series (7 show tour)

 

May

FORTITUDE (Tour ending big show)

Road to Glory (7 show tour)

Night of GLORY (Tour ending big show)

 

June

Summer Super Series (3 shows of the tour)

STRENGTH (Mid-tour big show)

Summer Super Series (4 shows of the tour)

 

July

MAGNUM (Mid-tour big show)

Summer Super Series (Final 4 shows of the tour)

WARRIORS (Tour ending big show)

Road to Honour (First 2 shows of tour)

 

August

Road to Honour (Final 5 shows of tour)

COLLISION (Part one of tour ending double header - Final of the Young Lions Cup)

Night of HONOUR (Part two of tour ending double header - Host of the single night Honour Cup tournament)

 

September

Royal Road (First 4 shows of tour)

LEGACY (Mid-tour big show)

Royal Road (4 more shows of tour)

 

October

Royal Road (Final 3 shows of tour)

KINGS (Tour ending big show)

Elite Tag Series (First 4 shows of tournament)

 

November

Elite Tag Series (Final 7 shows of tournament)

COURAGE (Elite Tag Series Final and tour ending big show)

International Tour (1 show of International mini-tour)

 

December

International Tour (2 more shows of International mini-tour)

*** (7 show tour)

Night of WRESTLING (Tour ending big show)

 

 

So there you have it; 15 big shows; 22 tournament shows; 60 touring shows and space for 6 international shows.

 

Other things to note are the Honour Cup and Young Lions Cup; two tournaments over the Summer. Honour Cup is going to be a single-night single elimination tournament that grants the winner a title shot; whilst the Young Lions Cup is a single-block round robin that will run on the undercard of Road to Honour and feature a crop of young lions.

 

 

I'm really interested in hearing thoughts.

 

 

Edit: I don't have a name for the tour in December yet, so any suggestions?

I'm terrible with names so no December suggestion. I dont think you need to be two fancy though. "Final Road" or something. Not sure.

 

Schedule looks fun! I think I'll probably end up having more events (both touring & normal) but I can see doing too many events getting tiring from a booking standpoint so I dont blame anyone for aiming for 100 shows instead of having more. Like I said, Im not very creative so I just copy + paste a RW company's schedule.

 

One thing I like to do is sprinkle in random anniversary shows (10 year, 15 year, 20 year, etc.) for members of your roster throughout the year. I'd give it normal intent but Id air it on a non-PPV broadcaster (like a PGHW World if you had one). I think its just cool flavor for your roster and fun milestones to reach as you get further into games.

 

I love the addition of Touring Intent / Lesser Shows especially for those international + crossover tours. Things like a Fantasticamania, the Australian, UK, etc tours that real world companies run will be much more fun to book this time. Simulating things like Young Lion focused events will be really good too.

 

Really looking forward to the full game being out so I can sit down and try scheduling too. Not sure if Ill end up with PGHW yet but Ill be keeping an eye out to see what people end up doing with them for sure.

 

Do you intend on bringing back King's Road or will you be leaving it dormant?
