WWE 2K16 - First Gameplay Details (IGN)

Dan Rykert got his hands on the game and talked about it on the latest Bombcast. Confirmed that it still just feels bad to play.

We knew that though. The gameplay from last year was a lot better than it had been in years. Maybe the best in a NA Yukes game. Glad they stuck with it.

Needless to say, if you didn't like last year's gameplay you should not pick up this game.

I know 2K15 had that feature where you could edit the attires of non-CAW wrestlers. Is that feature in this year?

Everyone is assuming it is. I don't think we've heard anything official.

I read something about Superstar heads.

I liked the gameplay more than I did in the WWE 14 one.

God this just reminds me of myself, and how I continue to watch WWE even knowing most of it at a base level pretty shit.
 
I thought the gameplay in WWE 2K15 was a real regression and the frustrating thing was that you could turn off/down the "improvements" in the main menu and yet the default settings were only available in MyCareer (and probably the Showcase mode too, traded the game in so quickly I never checked).

Yeah, your sliders had no effect in showcase.

I sank so many hours in HCTP mainly because of the non ending career mode. God, I miss that game.

Me too, that mode is just wrestling game perfection. I miss it too...it might be time to play through another year..."It's been a long time...UH UH YEH"

What I missed the most was when HCTP season mode had those promo packages before a major event. God they need to bring those back.

Even though I have WWE 2K15 physical for Xbox One, I picked up the Digital Deluxe Edition for the sale price of $20.

I am loving Warrior's 2K Showcase. The match against
Andre
was a lot of fun!

Just seen this on Reddit. I know it's 2k15, but it cracks me up and based on previous form, the old bugs will still be there anyway.

I had the most amazing glitch in WWE2K15, seemingly based on low drive space (The damned game had a 2+ GB "temp" folder it never deleted and only kept adding to, then got real pissy when it had no more space). I got the no ropes/crowd T-pose in replays that was popular at launch along with buggy replays in general where a few frames of animation looped. But my favorite part was whenever I would hit a finisher, the middle of the ring would shoot flames like Kane was going to come pull somebody down. Every single time until the game just crashed because it ate all of the space on my OS drive.

Sometimes the game can be real fun, even if it's pretty damn bad.

That actually just happened to everyone in the PC version at first. Can't remember what caused it, but all the videos coming out of it were hilarious

I saw a ton of the replay glitch but don't remember the Kane fire one. It was the only thing in a dozen years that made finishers exciting in this god damned series. Normally somebody just turns the vacuum cleaner on in the other room to celebrate a special move.

Yeah mine was as you hit the finisher, the pyro boom would go off but the flame was nowhere near as huge as shown in that replay. A bit of the fire and smoke stayed in the middle of the ring for the rest of the match if you didn't get the pin too. It was real dumb.

Best glitch I ever did was doing a running kick on Brock lesnar who was laying in the corner

it glitched and we both spammed out of the ring in the royal rumble and were eliminated
