Crazy buttocks is on twitter now?
 
Micro transactions for clothes packs you can use in creation suite?

Nah. That sounds like something a company that won't announce an NXT roster (even though it's already been leaked and its shit) but will tell you who you can pay for but isn't part of the season pass would do, so certainly not in this game.
 
The half assed it in one of the Smackdown games. Virtually pointless. Could only change colors/was super limited.

They have that in the latest games. It's called Superstar threads. This is supposedly different from that.

We will see.

Like I said, I don't think we've had the ability to edit Superstar outfits since Raw 2 on Xbox.
 
There is just no way they will let you update outfits for wrestlers without paying for them.

That's what I'm thinking but I think Bazza mentioned in his leak that there were no microtransactions. Of course, they may not have shown them to him and the others at the event.
 
Too bad going gold doesn't at all mean that a game is actually finished these days, but the term might mean less to Yukes than any other developer.
 
I think it's obvious some of the create features are going to be omitted on next-gen because they aren't ready for prime-time (and arguably never were.)

I assume it's the same stuff that was omitted from last gen.

Not surprised. I think that was assumed after this weekend.
 
Someone on the 2k forums posted this. I can't find the actual link to the quote on facebook so take it with a grain of salt:

Hey everyone, this is a console transition year. We understand what you're saying and how you feel (don't think we're taking it lightly), but we need and had to devote a lot of time, people, and energy towards coming out of the gate on the PS4 and Xbox One strong. The roster, while not as large as previous games, we feel is still strong and the showcases and other DLC also will add more additional Superstars and Divas to your roster. In previous games, we've been able to create features and add additional roster spots based on those features. This year as we transition, we devoted more time to building a new experience different from what you're used to. Because of this, more emphasis in things like gameplay, setting up creation suite, etc. was done. This is/was absolutely necessary so that we're not constantly adding feature after feature on top of a cracked foundation. We hope this helps clarify things, everyone!
 
Gold is final for these guys. They never fix issues in patches. All patches do is add compatibility for dlc.

Was it last year or the year before where the game launched with a glitch where the AI would never kick out of 2 counts and it never got patched until the following years game.

Always thought that was hilarious. Never played the game, just knew VGCW had to deal with it.

It was WWE 13 and it sucked. It ruined the whole game for me.

There were talking up a patch but then THQ went bankrupt.

It was also an issue in SvR 2010 and 2011. In 2011 the AI actually almost never kicked out of pin attempts. You could clothesline Undertaker 20 seconds into a match and get a pin. It was insane.

So far, the games under 2K at least work on the gameplay level.

2k13. Yukes stole EAs motto in regards to glitches. If its in the game, its in the game.
 
Jesus Christ! Nintendo's ass is more tight about future game information than the developers/publisher of the WWE games over the years.

There should have been a preview to cover the details of the new Universe mode and the various features of the game months ago to build up hype. Look what Firaxis did for Civilization: Beyond Earth. It is the same goddamn publisher! Why can't they just let us know what is going on with the game?
 
I think WWE edits the video packages... and like the rest of the game they would have been done months ago, before the logo switch. What the hell?

The traditional logo is blurred out during clips of HBK/Razor ladder match, too. I don't get it. I don't get why some bloody clips are left in, and some are either sepia or black and white. I don't get why so many of the Showcase moments have guys in the wrong gear or hair or looks in general, which appears to carry over into the next gen version based on the pictures shown through out the mode. I don't get why character specific dives are now OMG moments and there is nothing that tells you that ahead of time, nor is there a way to assign them for CAWS. It seems there are a number of OMG moments that aren't listed and are unable to find or assign in CAW mode. You just have to luck into figuring it out. I don't understand why the McMahon Stunner has giant black boxes to blur out the middle fingers. I don't understand why they replace the beat the streak mode with beat John Cena, but didn't give Cena any of the bullshit super powers to make it more than just an exhibition match. I don't understand the point in FIFTEEN attires for Punk. I don't understand why the most basic of glitches have never been fixed (like guys freezing in place until hit again, or trying to apply a hold/pick you up from the ground and getting reset from bumping into the ref or ropes and getting stuck in a loop). I don't understand how 2K could put this piece of shit out at full price. It's more glitchy and less polished than it has been in years, and it has been more glitchy and less polished every year for like 6 years in a row.
 
Is that q and a still going on. Can someone ask why they kept Yukes when they bought the license?

Simple answer - It is easier to oversee a developer that is currently making the game than to hire a bunch of new staff with little experience in the genre right away. Over time Yukes will most likely be abandoned once 2K learns more about the franchise.
 
Why is it free to you? Why is it already showing on your ps4?

My brother has pre-ordered the digital deluxe version for me as a birthday present on our shared US account. I can't hate him for it, he knows I like video games and wrestling, so it is thoughtful in that way.

Well at least you'll get slightly better than ps3 graphics on PS4, instead of ps2 in high def on the ps3.

Not to mention the process of building a sports game engine from scratch in 2014.

I really don't think Yuke's is going anywhere for this reason. A few years ago I thought differently--THQ could have put an internal team on transitioning the TNA Impact/AllStars engine into the main franchise game.

From 2K's perspective they can build off Yuke's engine now like they did with their old NBA engine. The alternative is starting from scratch like NBA Live.

Aye. I had £20's worth of fun with 2k14 with friends. It is a good drinking game.

Although a large portion of the fun with downloading random stories is gone....
 
I rented the game for PS3 today. This is so shitty. Cesaro has his swing in the game and the fans count along until 7 and you heard the audio cut out and then you hear the noise for the person hitting the mat but Cesaro is still swinging them lol

Even the animation is terrible. Are they really incapable of dealing with collision issues? Just look at his arms.
