Adam Ryland Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 So as not to over-run the TEW2020 forum with talk about TEW IX, please use this thread for discussion / reaction to the announcement of the new game and the daily developer's journal. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acey Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Hype! The Creative Energy concept is fascinating, and one that I think will split opinion. I think it will really add to the immersion factor, provided it works as intended. This sort of addition could definitely make TEW 2020 could add to the "gameplay" of TEW as opposed to it serving as a fantasy booking framework. @Adam Ryland, will this be a feature that can be 'deactivated' - like storyline requirements? Or will it be obligatory? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pentagon Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 OMG The new additions around the booking teams and Creatice Energy are very intriguing as it provides another twist to the game and also makes the game world feel more immersive in a way as the other people on the booking team and even workers can come with ideas. The two things I could see this impacting the most is diaries and playing ass larger companies. Working in the booking team twists into diaries would create many story opportunities and with the larger companies it would be a fun challenge to handle all the personalities, especially in the cverse. Would a relationship between someone in the booking team and a worker influnce them, for example if PRIDE Koiso has Nobuyo Hikichi as a protege will he present ideas benefiting Nobuyo?

Acey Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 I'm imagining a Real-World WCW mod with Bischoff, Russo, Hulk, etc all in one booking team. Sounds like chaos (and incredibly fun!) 11 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's obligatory as it's a fundamental part of the game. You can effectively disable it by turning off morale and not having anyone on your team though, as then there's no drawback to refusing requests to join the team. 28 minutes ago, pentagon said: Would a relationship between someone in the booking team and a worker influnce them, for example if PRIDE Koiso has Nobuyo Hikichi as a protege will he present ideas benefiting Nobuyo? Yes, internal politics are part of it. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morgneto Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Is there the potential for you to use Workers Ideas for other workers, at the potential expense of your standing with them? There have definitely been times where someone came up with a gimmick that got given to someone else - off the top of my head, I believe the "Hall of Pain" was something Tyrus came up with, then given to Mark Henry. Apocryphally, "The Game" was supposed to be for Owen Hart originally, etc. Psyched that this series is ready to rock again! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rvhn Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Nice news ! Is teams & stables work like TEW '20 ? I'd like to see trios or quads in the game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teh_Showtime Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 (edited) Im surprised the FAQ didn’t mention that it’s technically possible to continue your previous games from 2020. Since you can convert your saves to a database, you can convert that DB into compatible one to start with in the new game. Beyond that, journal starts off with a healthy bang Edited July 1 by Teh_Showtime 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EddieFnG Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Amazing news, can't believe it's coming out so soon, too! My main question regarding the creative team, are they company wide or if you have a brand split, would you have 2 creative teams just like WWE does irl with Raw and SD? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larrikn Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 How do we decide which .gif image will be the background for workers if someone is on a brand with a background and also in a stable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dourvas Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Wow that's soon. Unfortunately, I've stopped playing with my friends but I would buy it for myself if there was a much needed better calendar implementation that lets you book entire months in advance. But if that's not in again, I'll skip buying it this time around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaysin Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 As someone who has literally requested the return of creative teams since they were removed, I'm on cloud nine. A four week journal is exciting as heck. TEW is typically a day one purchase for me, so I think I'll be setting up a database to convert on day one. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel_Sykes Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Hi Adam, Super excited about this. The game comes out super soon already! Im excited to see what happens with my fave Japan C-Verse companies. Will the game be in fullscreen resolution (920 x 1080) this year like FM runs etc. Or is it still in the same resolution as previous editions?

Road Warrior Puke Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Hard to get excited about any new features without knowing if the game is still a slog to mod. 2020 didn't reach its full potential because of this, so it's the number one question I have about IX. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WMMA 5 had some modding features TEW 2020 didn't have, so im HOPING at the very least, those are brought over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Mac Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Have the Cverse pics been updated. Praying to god the 21CW land of potato looking men is gone! Super excited for this though. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shooltra Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Sounds amazing. Wrestlers having some kind of agency regarding the direction of their booking already sounds like a major plus when it comes to making each saves more unique. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalmus Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Two biggest things I want are Product's to be customizable/some what customizable like on 16. And upgrade to Alliances This booking committee gives me hope we have something similar for Alliances 🙏 Super hyped! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
