panix04 Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 Well i think its safe to say that TEW2007 is going to be modders heaven! I love the new promotional system. It really does show how much notice you take of the suggestions forum! One thing that hasn't been covered in your post though is roster size for feds, will this alter dependant on promotion style? or are you sticking with the current, level orientated system? I'm just enquiring as i know there was a lot of debate on the subject recently, not to flog a dead horse but i know a lot of people want a work-around to the WWE releases at the start of the game and i was curious as too wether that will be covered with the new style system.

panix04 Posted August 11, 2006 Author Share Posted August 11, 2006 he he, i think he sensed my Culombo-like effort to get information from him! Still with the few alterations he has made so far i would pay full price to have the new version. And these changes have only taken a month, imagine what he can do with the 6 months between now and christmas - this game is gonna be off the hizzle fa shizzle! (incidentally, i cant pull that off, can i?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It allows for a truly unique gaming experience, especially considering I will be concentrating on EoGE first, it means family-friendly comedy wrestlecrap can be accurately simulated, especially in comparison to the traditional wrestlecrap of WCW and the unique risque classic ECW! Awesome! I need more journal entries, I can't wait till Monday!!! Adam you keep avoiding my requests... WILL YOU MARRY ME? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ringlord59 Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 And hopefully you can more than 2 brands under the same promotion. Four may be a good number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoganRodzen Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 [quote=TCP1;135952]WILL YOU MARRY ME?[/quote] I don't understand why you would wish to marry Adam Ryland. Perhaps you think if you were his signifigant other he would give you game tips and a free version of the game. ;) But we all know he'd never do that. :rolleyes: Damn programmers. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panix04 Posted August 11, 2006 Author Share Posted August 11, 2006 Yep, LoganRodzen is spot on TCP! Trust me, i know have a nasty devorce with the guy who makes Football manager to sort out!

I've never gotten involved enough to get that far myself - I was always afraid of commitment past the game itself. ;) Also, to stay a bit more on topic just so I can say I did - CarlitoCoool, the Dev Journal is also becoming one of my favorite reads.

panix04 Posted August 11, 2006 Author Share Posted August 11, 2006 couldn't agree more, the best thing is knowing that each of the things that are mentioned are already part of the game. They are not things that may, or may not happen - they are in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimmas Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 This is the best feature announced yet! I can't wait to use this, since the style I book always is different than one of the presets! Beautiful, I can't wait for this game!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickC13573 Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 And the best part is. That its harder to get to the top in the game world. cuz even if you make one change in your promotion style, you could drive away your audience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thriller Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 All this talk of old school All Japan intensity, head drops and what not is getting me hot under the collar. And this means we can have pure womens wrestling promotions and proper old school British promotions: pure wrestling, realism and a hint of comedy.

Jestor Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 I do think there should be some sort of faq-ish dealing with the relationship between the different factors, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of a blend of AJW, GAEA, and ARSION with that APW garage feel. WOO HAH! And Panix, I probably got my biggest laugh of the day imagining you (with what I imagine is a British accent) saying "off the hizzle fo shizzle". :D So thanks for that (the Friday after a failed terrorist plot involving a commercial airline is the 4th circle of HELL for a travel agent, I've found).

Capelli King Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 I don't know about all you guys but i think the new promotional style feature is absolutely fantastic. In fact it is more than simply fantastic it is, well, a very good reason for at least me to buy the game! I ended up playing a style of play in 2005, which did not really fit what i would had like, something like a compromise. With the new feature i am free. Great!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torri Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 It's nice to see that Adam Ryland has blatantly ripped off of my "Torri's TEW Countdown" from TEW 2004. I should get some sort of compensation for such infringement. Oh yeah, and this is probably the feature i'm most lookin' forward to. Knowing I don't have to remain booking one style is great.

haloed Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 My only question about this would be if a fed would be able to evolve its style over time, such as the WWF or E has over the years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The final part is the most important, and is the Product Appeal. This defines what the actual product is made up of. It consists of twelve categories, which are rated on a scale between None (has absolutely no place in the product) up to Key Feature (is a major factor). The combination of ratings you give basically defines the promotion; it will effect what wrestlers fit in, what fans you attract, whether you are likely to get effected by industry slumps as badly as other promotions, what the fans will expect to see and how they will react to it....etc, etc. These can be changed in game, so that a promotion can be "evolved" as it goes along (although, of course, radically changing your style would be a bad move, as you'd essentially be driving away your existing fan base before you have new fans to replace them with).

Genadi Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 Just read Adam's last journal post and wow:eek: I must say, 07 is going to be off the hook. I'll be the first to admit I wanted a thousand things added and changed but by the look of it Adam is really putting some thought into this and I feel like I may have been outta line. The new promotional style set up is just bloody fanta.stic, it's going to be make the game so much more playable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forlan Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Finally promotions like CHIKARA will be able to be accurately portrayed as the styles now they seem to fit slightly into one or two but don't really seem to fit at all. All that will change with 07 :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
