ZachBraff Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 Mauro Ranallo might be a good add for a commentator. He was mostly known for his MMA work around this time, but still had experience calling wrestling as well. THE BIPOLAR ROCK 'N' ROLLER!

Donners Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 Dirty and cheap? The company legit was using him on their shows! Don’t cheat the system and use him as a special attraction just like they did in real life. Not at the time this mod begins, namely January 2004. His four-show deal was used up as follows: Jun 18th 2003 Nov 5th 2003 Nov 12th 2003 Dec 17th 2003 He did not have another match for them until Jan 15th 2006, when they were TNA. http://www.profightdb.com/wrestlers/sting-494.html He only had two appearances between that time - both in March 2004. He shouldn't be on the TNA roster. While the user may choose not to "cheat the system", the AI will use him liberally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the latest update, it looks like Sting was given a three month contract due to his appearance in March 2004. That's probably a good compromise, since he was still doing business with TNA at the time but took a long break after his last appearance in March.

ZachBraff Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 Any plans to flesh out some of the game areas with venues and broadcasters? They added some new areas compared to 2016, so there's a few regions with no venues or coverage. Most notably, India is completely barren. There's also some venues that are located in the empty game areas, but they're in the wrong places because the way the game was built in 2016 and the conversion (for example, New South Wales has several Queensland venues on its list).

ZachBraff Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 If you could send me a list of the venues...I'm not familiar with the Oceania region Well, anything with "Brisbane" or "Gold Coast" in it belongs to Queensland. Otherwise, all I can suggest is just doing some Googling of the listed venues and seeing which states/areas they're actually located in. Here are the areas that seem to be missing venues or have them misplaced: CANADA Saskatchewan MEXICO Noroccidente Occidente Sur BRITISH ISLES Wales EUROPE Russia Southern Europe Southern Mediterranean Western Europe OCEANIA Queensland Tasmania Victoria Then India has nothing. Anyway, with the way the new locations feature works, I guess you could just leave it as is. It'd be cool to at least organize the existing venues though. As for broadcasters, might be worth asking Idol about how he did his research regarding broadcasters around the world in 2004. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jean-vic Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 You mention in the TNA storylines that Swinger and Diamond are going to turn face, yet set them to turn face and it says their last turn was recent. Might want to edit that if it can be edited. Also, Jerry Lynn as the most over worker in the company seems a bit of a stretch. The Undertaker shouldn't be set to be on a hiatus when he's in a storyline. He should be available for WWE so he can be placed in angles.

MainOffender Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 Just a note that Start Variance is set to Medium to begin with, so anyone discussing stats viewed in-game might see the mod's numbers skewed by that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nickman Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 A couple of notes I have... - Jack Lanza has experience of zero, so is a poor road agent - the intercontinental title is set to be small workers only I can fix both of those things in my save though. Otherwise the mod seems to play quite well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NowThenMates Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 Loved the mod in 2016 and great to see someone carrying it over and by the looks of it improving it and putting a lot of effort in! Although one thing I noticed, Erick Rowan has 60 pop across the US which I imagine is an error. Only thing I've spotted so far. After typing this I realised there's an Erick Rowan and Thorius in the database which is where the issue has come from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
