GrindhouseArts Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 I think a lot of Contract issues would be solved if the AI didn't insist on signing everyone exclusive, and workers had a sense of self-preservation. Have the AI offer more Per Appearance deals, and have workers reject them sometimes - if their body condition is too low (as opposed to now, where workers exhaust themselves, but keep working for 7 companies until an injury takes them out), if they already have x other Handshake contracts (with their priority being Written contracts and companies with TV deals, so they'd drop other deals if either is offered). That way, you could have 'guest stars' from other friendly companies, limited time invasion angles, and so on, without workers taking more bookings than they realistically could handle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D16NJD16 Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 "Enhanced Mass Editing The in-game mass editor has been beefed up with a lot more available options; every aspect where it is viable to allow mass editing is now covered. This can also be of great benefit to database makers to speed up the process of making and editing databases." Will it be like the WMMA 5 editor?

Chikbot Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 i know this sounds weird, but the fact moves can have descriptions now to say what they are is probably my new favorite feature. As someone who loves that sort of world building. I'd at least like to know WHAT is being done 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless there’s a shenanigans finish… in which case there’s also a sharpshooter. And any 40+ year old with 65+ athleticism will also be given a Canadian Destroyer.

Peria Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 I am super hyped for the ability to look back on a specific date and see who our former champions were. I have a huge thing for letting long saves run, so that works perfectly for me. The renegotiations of a retired worker is actually something that always annoyed me but thought was so small that it wouldn't ever get "fixed" so I'm happy about that too! The eras thing adds a lot of personal touch too! I just hope we can add our own eras as time goes by in the editor, as if I remember right, you can't "add" eras in game. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alienated Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 We may have buried the lede here with the era finance management - it looks like it's going to essentially act as a set of sliders that allow us to set the difficulty of finance management in the save, which is huge because it's very easy to make unlimited money in TEW games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleCamelot Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 Will the Era settings be editable with the in-game editor? It'd be nice to recreate the pre-Monday Night Wars with limited written, guaranteed deals and then change it so that everyone is getting ridiculous contracts in order to keep workers away from the competition.

Amyzyng Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 I absolutely love the new era settings. Though, I’m surprised that TEW never adopted the feature in WMMA5 where you could set different financial difficulties for companies above/below National (I guess this would be Big for TEW).

fourbrothers366 Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 "Wrestling School Affiliations Companies can now affiliate themselves with wrestling schools. This takes the form of them paying part of the school's running costs in return for getting first refusal over the graduates. This just adds an extra touch of realism and is useful for companies who may not have the funds to actually open their own facility." I wonder if it's a set cost or negotiating cost? Plus if there is an option to pay slightly more to upgrade the school kind of like how we do Mech levels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingbadger Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 7 hours ago, Astil said: Thats kinda how it works irl too though, no? I feel any 'night of' hiring is more gameifying and less immersive (still a good thing imo). The immersive thing would be having to reach out before the pm mode for all the workers but that would be far less fun. Nah AEW brings in local talent all the time, quite often big names as well. Guys like Kevin Blackwood etc have worked as local enhancement talent, and Skye Blue and Action Andretti were both brought back and signed after working one night on that basis. All of those would obviously have been working the indies at the time - next week AEW have got Tommy Billington working as they're in Calgary. All these sorts of workers should be available to a company with a TV deal on a one night deal IMO. The reverse is true too - a lot of AEW, TNA etc talent should be able to work the indies without a working agreement like they do in real life, whilst still being exclusively on TV for their company alone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They aren’t bringing in local talent day of because they got to the show and felt like it. I think that’s what the OP is getting at. Local talent is contacted with some advance notice so they can be there/take time off from their real jobs if they have to/etc… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That way, you could have 'guest stars' from other friendly companies, limited time invasion angles, and so on, without workers taking more bookings than they realistically could handle. In TEW 2020, that issue could be fixed through tweaking an existing mod. Often, modders would set the roster size under business to "Medium" or "Large" and then have less workers than the estimated roster size. TEW 2020 didn't provide modders with a good way to represent touring contracts with Japanese companies. Most chose rightfully to exclude touring roster members from big Japanese company rosters, but this often put Japanese promotions under the starting roster size. It's way more accurate to not have touring wrestlers under exclusive deals. I think the TEW IX will largely fix this issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SomeDude03 Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 This is a bit of a random one, but for people who've been around for the reveals of previous TEW games, do we normally get a rundown on some of the changes in the game world before the release? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
