[RELEASE] Martel's Future Worker Packs 2.0 [TEW IX]

[alpha2117]

Hanging for Pack 2 & 3

 

[Jaded]

So many awesome characters here! Emma Smith currently tearing it up in my RTG game (although she split with Alexa, which made m v sad.) Outstanding job!

I don't see a pic for Sarah Stone-DeColt

[Matt_Black]

Not sure if this has been mentioned, but some of the women wrestlers have pronouns listed as He/Him when their bios use She/ Her, like Jupiter Star and Cyber Mizuki.

both of these issues fixed. Sarah was from an old mod that I forgot to remove. And the pronouns for Mizuki and Stevens have been fixed

There were a couple of others, but I can't remember who.

[alpha2117]

I've been doing scouting reports on the Cverse and started doing a full scout on all the women in Historian' Womens pack today.  Sometime in the next week or so I will be doing this, SHEHEROES, Grindhousearts Women & Central Asia pack and maybe ALTCVERSE so if I notice anything as I go through each person I will let you Know.   

[Martel123]

Gonna combine both the Womens and Next Generation packs. I have frameworks for both so might as well combine them here so they release at the same time. TBA on release date, hopefully won't take longer then a month. I have another project in the works too but release on that depends on when I get the fire to put in work in it if that makes sense.

I've been doing a scouting report and have done the core Cverse as well as SHEHEROES and Historians womens expansion packs so far and will be doing the workers in this pack in the next few days.  I'll download your most recent database and when I am doing an in depth look at each worker I will not own anything I notice missing and let you know.  I already know a lot of your people are getting positive reports having already looked at them.

appreciate that. Long term reports like that will help with future updates 100%

Okay posted the first 13.  

Notes

Aleki has the Shooting Star press finisher but almost no Aerial or Flash stats up them both

Tala add Oceania & Japan to match Aleki’s availability.

Akuma 6’8 bio says 6’10

Alex Smith – Ontario spelt wrong in bio

Alexa Christian – her bio says she’s a better wrestler than Emma Smith but her skills dont indicate that – recommend upping the fundamentals into the 40’s and technical and brawling up to the 40’s to indicate she isn’t useless which is what her current stats indicate. Change last line of bio “Alexa seems to be the better wrestler of the pairing but both girls have great potential to make it big in the industry.” by adding mat after the word better which would then make sense. In my scouting report I’ve gone with her bio and just indicated that her fundamentls still need work.

Beast - No gimmicks – a 6’1 woman with almost no Menace?

Harry Daniels is incompetent - and I reviewed him as such

Suggestion - With future packs dont go further out than 2024 for debut - most people probably wont appreciate the hard work you have to do on a character they may NEVER see in their game because they quit after a couple of years.  I would actually go in and tweak the graduations for any of them in this pack from 25, 26 & 27.

Version 1.2 is out! Fixed some of the physical stats for around a 3rd of the wrestlers. Should be more even and less "physical specimen" type guys. 

If only I hadn't gotten deep in my Save now.😑

Alexa definitely isn't useless - she's been doing well for my RTG fed - but agree that the bio is weird because she's nowhere near as good as Emma; Emma is an absolute superstar.

No she isn't useless - with my scouting I'm looking closely at the build as if I was a scout delivering a report though.  Her starting stats dont really match the info in her bio.  She supposed to be good and whats she starts out with are career lower mid carder stats.  With people that are supposed to be good they should have one of the in ring stats in the 40's and the fundamentals in the 40's as a rookie otherwise they just wont develop into a good ring worker - thats just the realities of how the game progresses peoples stats.  Someone who starts in the 30's takes a long time to reach 50 on one of those stats that only really grows in matches.  If you have low fundamentals it's super hard to grow them.

Good news is the changes aren't gamechanging really. Just debuffs for some guys physically to match with the game.

Thanks for the notes! Probably will post a big update with everything done at once for those smaller changes. A big reason I do those post 2025 debuts are due to some players doing longer saves (RTG or just really committed to one save) and so adding in a bit of character to new workers that far out helps in keeping the save going (at least that's how it works for me and my long term saves.) It also makes sense for second generation guys (like Pharoah Prince) to debut later on as it'd make sense age wise with his dad. It also means in future games they'd debut earlier on as the starting year changes.

Understood on the debuts but to me someone like Ethan Smith is simply not going to be seen by most people.  I think 6 years out is too long.  The first three years 22, 23 24 is as far as most people will go 25 26 and 27 are so far away that your work is potentially wasted for most if you know what I mean.  Maybe 1 or 2 workers like Pharoah Prince if you have a good concept for a Legacy but for someone like Ethan Smith it just seems like a waste of a decent enough concept for a character who most people will never actually see.  Thats your decision to make though.

Part 2 of the Scouting report is up

Notes

Most everyone needs gimmicks

Blast Team– up their fundamentals a bit – too many of your people simply cant work  and guys who might be something need to have fundamentals in the 30’s min really. Give them Tag Team Specialist attribute

Bloody Rain – Make him available as a Manager because everything about him says that is what he will end up being.

Charlie Mathews – he is supposed to debut May 22 not may 23 based on Chrisitan and Smith debuting in May 22. Up his fundamentals a tad because lets face it he's designed to be a hardworking workhorse.

The DeColt boys – Make Ryan & Rons birthdays the same – right now they have b-days that are close but not the same so change Ron to the 29^th of September like Ryan. Change Ron’s debut to August to match his brothers.

Ricky DeColt – Up his fundamantals and maybe brawling to reflect him getting into fights with people in his youth because you have him being a potential star but he doesn’t have the stats to allow for that. All the DeColts should have basic french because it’s Canada and you sort of get taught basic French in school.

Cyber Mizuki – No gimmicks and add creative dynamo, willing to flaunt and cinematic visoonary to attributes and maybe up her fundamentals into the 40’s. She’s too good a pic and concept to waste.

Danny Richardson has 0 Menace?????  Obviously thats a mistake

Deathwatch – add Wrestling in the Blood and creative to attributes to match bio. Add gimmicks – maybe bring debut forward because he’s too good a pic and idea to never been seen by most people. Up SQ because that pic and character concept feel like they will succeed.

Diego Cuerno – Up his fundamentals and aerial and flashiness to match his bio – he’s set as an unuseable dud and the pic and concept is too good to waste. I’d recommend Moving forward to 24 too as 4 years is a long time and most people wont reach that point.

2 notes outside of the smaller stuff

1. No gimmicks was mostly done to allow the user to eventually give the wrestler a gimmick upon them coming into the roster. That probably messes with the game world (since I doubt the A.I. gives gimmicks out (though I haven't checked)) and I might do some for the clear "gimmicky" workers but that's why for example the DeColt Boys are gimmickless to start out with. 

2. Fundamentals are meant to be low. These guys are young and have a lot of time to improve, and the fundamentals/psychology are stuff that is learned quickly. 

Here's PGHW young lion Keishi Tagawa for example. He has jumped 2-5 points (with scouting fog on, so at the very least in that range) in all these categories in 4 months. He has wrestled consistent matches and the rest of the skills suck as well. He will turn out fine and just needs the in ring work to build up his stats. 

I also understand how guys coming in from higher rated dojo's have superior fundamentals, and that will be adjusted as I go. But that's why the fundamentals as of now are low.

No worries - what I would say is Safety and Consistency being so low means some of these people are effectively unemployable. I dont mind some are terrible but the ones who either look great in the pic or who are described as great in the bio probably need to be reviewed stats wise.  It's always your choice what you do and my suggestions are meant to be constructive - if you dont take them thats not an issue to me but telling you my feedback whilst you are still tweaking and fixing data is the right time to do it. 

Just posted part 3 of the reviews here are the notes

Guerrero de Abejas – profile says he’s excellent but in ring and fundamentals say he’s terrible. Up Fundamentals Aerial and Flashiness to the 30’s-40’s. Maybe Wrestling is in the blood as an attribute to reflect him training for a long time

Haruto Inoue – needs to be available in Japan and speak Japanese

Irish Hawk – change arm health to 90 to reflect elbow injury.

Jenna Zapruder – add Modelling Experience, Amazing Heel and Amazing Babyface to match bio. The word former is misspelled in the bio

John Doe’s gimmick needs to be heel too because that gimmick could be built to draw heat in Japan

Part 4 up before I go to bed - 

Julian Minx – fundamental stats are way too low to be employable – super dangerous and inconsistent and their aerials are fairly low in the 20’s yet it says they are a great acrobat which would normally indicate safety consistency aerial and flash at least in the 30’s . Mic skills are good so if you aren’t changing the fundamentals then maybe make them available as a Manager because then they are employable. No attributes and the acrobat indicates a gymnastics background would be appropriate.

Julio Benavidiz – He was in a gang so Chequered Past would make sense if you intend that he is reformed.

King Dunne – I think you put Sex Appeal and Menace the wrong way around. An Obese 6’5 brawler who by the pic is covered in hair has 67 Sex Appeal and 3 Menace?

Part 5 and 6 of scouting up completing the pack

Notes

Masked Stranger III - 6’5 and Muscular but Menace is 8.

Mr.Roboto add Horndog to match the bio

The Nightmares – the name is already taken in the default so wont import– maybe Night Terrors?  No thats taken too - MurderNight?

Riki Jingping currently based in the US not Japan.

Shanti Hansda – probably needs her debut date brought forward because that pic and woker are wasted 4 years into peoples saves.

TJ Scott – Add Stud Athlete and Gymnast and either easy to market or a Marketing dream to attributes

Veronica Moretti – Chequered Past to be added to attributes. Make her available as a Manager so she can manage Travis Donovan whilst she develops - it makes total sense with her bio and personailty to want to be with him any way she can.  

Trevor Wilson – another huge guy with no Menace.

Trisha Sen – Up her sex appeal a bit because that pic is not of a 5 out of 10 – mid 60’s or 70’s.

Tyrone Briggs – Maybe move his availability date up a tad because 2026 feels a long way out for someone who people will love. Add stud athlete and easily marketable.

For your future packs I would recommend adding at least one attribute to every worker - they help these characters feel less generic.  Your bios will usually give you a hint of what might be appropriate.

Finally I just want to say I love a lot of the pics, I enjoy a lot of the bios and I very much appreciate your efforts and I hope the scouting report helps people to realise how much this pack can add to their game.

Want to thank everyone for all the love and support so far. Want to lay out the plan:

 

-Halfway done with creating workers. Should be done hopefully in the coming days. After that I will be doing a basic check of stats and the inevitable typos as well as making sure all the relationships are in check (the nepotism part of the mod basically) 

-I might bring in some playtesters to also help, if you are interested in helping please pm here. 

-After that I am going to add in all the necessary attributes that I haven't yet or haven't done for the first pack. So by release everything should be set for both packs. 

-Similar thing will be done with move sets. Due to this being a separate add-on I might release then do move-sets (depends on if burn out hits tbh) 

-After all of that I will release it. 

 

As hype, I will be releasing some of the pictures! These are just 8 of the ones being used for the women's section of the mod. In total, 95 workers should be debuting, all of them being in the future. 

Edited September 5 by Martel123

[Altgov]

I was making the changes that alpha posted here, and I found some mistakes:

There is an error with Cyber Mizuki, the pronouns are set on "he/him" but her bio say "she/her".
Diego Cuerno is a Mexican but he can't speak spanish lol.
Haruto Inoue is "white" but he is a japanese guy. Maybe he need to get the attribute "stud athlete" because of his bio.
Riki Jingping is also as white and not asian.
Shanti Hansda is an indian women with the wrong pronouns, she need to be available in India and to speak Hindi maybe. Also, a "easily marketable" attribute and "prodigy" could be good with her bio.
Trisha Sen has the wrong pronouns and maybe she could speak basic spanish (from Texas and available in Mexico).

I think it's all I see for now.

[Martel123]

Been a minute, here are some updates!

 

-Passing the 2/3rds point of worker creations, plan on having a working database in a week or maybe two if things get delayed. Due to this, I am looking for play testers to help ensure everything looks right before mod release! Please pm me here if you are interested in testing out not only the mod but helping me check over for mistakes.

-Here are some of the pictures for the nepotism side of the mod!
