thecruiser Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 In TEW05, the closest I came to this was Cutting Edge. But, I didn't want a TNA-style promotion. I tried doing hardcore matches, but the crowd didn't like hardcore matches too often. I hope with this feature, I can make it so the fans will be expecting no-rules matches, with mainstream match stipulations, and mainstream production value in the Extreme Edge promotions. Style Name: Extreme Edge (X-Edge for short) Style Description: Will be a mix between TNA, ECW, WWE, and ROH. Every match will have no DQ rules, which will cause the dardevils and the extremists to shine. Production Values: Most X-Edge promotions will have WWE-like production values, and will take place in big arenas. My promotion is going to take place in Canada and is going to be called "Canadian Hardcore Combat". Booking AI: Every type of mainstream match will be involved, (e.g. Singles, Tag, 3-Way, 4-Way, Elimination, Cage, Submission, Ladder, Table, etc.) Matches to angles: 70% Matches, 30% Interviews & Angles Expected match length: Minor:10-15 minutes, Medium: 15-25 minutes, Major: 25-40 minutes Match Intensity: Low-Medium to Very High Match Danger: Low-Medium to Extremely High Women's Wrestling: Strong Women's divisions, but style is male-dominated PROMOTION APPEAL Traditional: Medium-High Mainstream: High Comedy: Low Cult: Very Low Risque: Medium Modern: High Realism: High Hyper Realism: Low-Medium Hardcore: High Lucha Libre: Medium Pure: Medium-High Daredevil: High Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madman Jack Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 X-Edge sounds, well, [I]extremely[/I] similar to what I typically do with my eXtreme Wrestling Alliance (apparently this name's been used in reality, but the only one with a website I've found [I]seems[/I] to be defunct at the moment). I even based it in Toronto once, although it's typically HQ'd in Huntington, LI, NY. I think that to match my own promotion, there needs to be a few changes, however: Style Name: Mod X-Edge Style Description: Emphasizing what TNA [I]claims[/I] to be, and what ECW often approached, with a hint of ROH and SHIMMER thrown in. Production Values: I always spend every cent I can toward boosting production values -- if it was possible to EXCEED WWE, I think I did (WWE-level camera work and production values PLUS licensed themes, so my brother-in-law's doppleganger, ZOMBi, really [I]would[/I] be coming to the ring to Disturbed's "Down With the Sickness", for example). Booking AI: Difficult to pin down, but pretty much any match that would fit the performers. Matches to angles: In TEW2005, almost EXACTLY 4:1 at times, although it would suffer when there were injuries Expected match length: Minor:9-15 min(usually 12), Medium: 15-24 min(typically 18), Major: 24-60 min (usually 30-33) Match Intensity: Low-Medium to Very High (that fits me as well) Match Danger: Low-Medium to Extremely High (same here) Women's Wrestling: Male dominated with (again, strong) Women's div (this was another 4:1 ratio for me, with 32M/8F wrestlers, rising to 36/9, then finally to 48/12. About 2:1 for nonperformers, and the only Road Agents that were women were self-created, but I usually had one of those just because.) PROMOTION APPEAL Traditional: Medium Mainstream: Med-High Comedy: Medium Cult: Very Low Risque: Medium Modern: High Realism: High Hyper Realism: Low Hardcore: High Lucha Libre: Medium Pure: Medium Daredevil: High It really comes across as more of a Hybrid, come to think of it, but I did alright with it under the Cutting Edge rules, although I think it'll be interesting to see how it works out in '07. (And yes, I shamelessly create superwrestlers with barely any overness out of my friends and family to be the lower-midcard, so that might be the key to my success -- then again, I lose a lot of them to RoH after a while, so that can't be the [I]whole[/I] reason.)

thecruiser Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 Wow... Your style really DOES sound like mine. Except, mine would seem like a TNA/WWE-style promotion, (TNA-quality matches, WWE-quality production value), but there are no rules in ANY of the matches, (much like the ROH/ECW/CZW style). PS. It is pretty weird that you set your promotion in Toronto once. lol. I actually LIVE in Toronto, and the closest thing to this is the UWA promotion set in Mississauga, (about 45 minutes out of Toronto), where it has a working agreement with TNA, ROH, and CZW (When I went, Chris Sabin, Alex Shelley, and Homocide all wrestled). Only one of the matches had the "hardcore" moniker attached to it, and a guy got sent through a table. But, the other matches, (which weren't hardcore), had all this crazy **** (Homocide jumping through the ropes and into the barracade right where I was standing). Anyway, UWA is what I based my CHC promotion on, except I had it so it was the biggest promotion in Canada. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackman Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 I'm trying to make the RPW promotion, since it's imo the easiest to begin with. It's not a lot of work so for a n00b like me it'll definately be doable. But what I don't know is what the settings/customs will need to be if I tend to make this promotion ([url]www.realprowrestling.com[/url]) like it's for real. I assume they value the pure wrestling style alot since they take actual amateur wrestlers and put them in a professional background, bending the amateur rules a bit to fit their liking. Translated in the concrete customisable settings, can someone please (more or less) give me the settings? Thanks a bundle. I'll try (plz correct). Here goes: [B]Style Name: REAL PRO[/B] [B]Booking AI[/B]: Mostly singles, but the occasional tag match [B]Titles[/B]: 4 Main titles representing the weight classes (Is weight in-game?) [B]Matches to angles[/B]: 10 - 1 ? (I'm thinking of doing solely 'Tournament' angles through shows) [B]Expected match length[/B]: MINOR = 2 minutes - MEDIUM = 6 minutes - MAJOR = 30 minutes [B]Match Intensity[/B]: Very High [B]Match Danger[/B]: Medium? (They get injured sometimes i think) [U]PROMOTION APPEAL[/U] Traditional: Very Low? Mainstream: Low? Comedy: Low Cult: High? Risque: Very Low? Modern: Very Low? Realism: Very High Hyper Realism: Very High Hardcore: None Lucha Libre: None? Pure: Very High Daredevil: Very Low? Furthermore a question: Their matches (since they are amateur style) end in pins sometimes, but most of the time ends in points. How do I translate that to the match settings? Thanks a bundle! EDIT: Since there is also a women variable. I could add women, but then I would have to increase the risque to medium since women aren't fully integrated in the sport yet (I think). But I wouldn't add a women's division from the start since it would mean too much trouble. Depends on the amount of women puro's in the database. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisPMWBenoit Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 I want to start a 2001 game with the WWF and slowly turn the Attitude style into the Desire style focusing a little more on in-ring action!
