WWE 2K17 |OT| It's the same game, yes it is!

I have no willpower. I know this game won't be that good, I told myself I wasn't going to buy it this year, and of course when I went to Best Buy to grab Dragon Quest Builders there was a big WWE display and I grabbed a copy. I feel shame right now and I haven't even finished downloading the 11 gb update.
Fuck that, just play the game ooooooh yeah!

congratulations on keeping Yikes in business.
 
If they're so set on going for the sim aspect as opposed to arcade gameplay, I say go all in and make it a pure sim. As in remove the fighting game and competitive aspect of gameplay all together. Make a WWE game all about giving the player control of structuring and booking matches, creating their own storylines with creative control over wins/losses. Make the gameplay in matches about spot calling and executing moves correctly and safely. The idea is to try and put on good crowd pleasing matches and to get storylines and talent over. Go full sim.

Now I wanna play Extreme Warfare Revenge again.

I didn't buy this game. I have only spoken about it. I bought 2k16 recently during a PSN sale and quit playing after an hour and unistalled it. It was the first I have bought in many years. I'm no mark.
 
I refuse to buy this until I can get my hands on that Shinsuke Nakamura DLC. Locking the wrestler I want to play as the most behind an impossible to get Limited Edition is pure garbage.

Then again, so is Yukes.
 
This roster is huge.

First match.. Nakamura vs Simon Gotch at NXT Takeover: London.

Halloween Havoc is locked :(

Nice! I did my signature and finisher and won the match. It wasn't like I needed to do the finisher twice to win.
But it was against Gotch
.
 
So are the most recent wwe games actually fun to play/not overly complex like NBA live or should I look for older ones?

Edit: would like recommendations for PS3/360 era and beyond or PC.
 
Holy shit the glitches. LOL

Fuck it, ordered an Xbox One copy from Amazon. Will make a nice weekend game with my son.

Get Firepro or WWE All Stars for PS3. Any game made by Yikes is garbage from the ps3 era on and they continually get worse each year.
 
Normally the glitches don't really pop up when I play. This year is really bad glitch wise. Still having a lot of fun.

With the last 3 releases on Xbox One, I only had one glitch.

EDIT: Oops. Day 1 with 2K17 and Goldberg had a seizure.

So just share played with my buddy for a while. Feels better than 16. Reversal window is shorter but big reversal window is longer. Played a good couple of matches. Being able to switch who you are focusing on with it showing the name above your character is a welcome improvement. All ready had some big moments such as catching Seth Rollins off the turnbuckle into an attitude adjustment in an elimination chamber. Only have seen one bad glitch so far and that was when I was taunting in the corner as Sasha banks and her arm started flipping around like a snake. Ladder match changes are awesome. Match lasted very long and was a nail biter every time someone got up there in our six man ladder match. Being able to walk backstage when you are getting your ass kicked and be a total asshole to turn the tide is nice. Don't like that taunts don't fill up your finisher meter. Will play more tomorrow.
 
I will be picking it up. Why? Because I'm an AJ Styles mark and have been for 14 years, and this is the first time he is in a WWE game.

Weak I am. Ashamed I am not. Bring it!

Goodnight GAFMANIACS and jabronie marks without a life that don't know it a work when you work a work and work yourself into a shoot,marks.

You just made the list.
I love this garbage game
 
Haters gonna hate with these games, but I always have a shit ton of fun with them. If I want a King of Colosseum level experience, then, well.. I'll play King of Colosseum. :P
 
These games seem like the perfect "let me get drunk and chill while a podcast is playing in the back" type of games.
 
For those who want to purchase the game, i will just say this ( pretty sure at least) wait til black friday. The 2K games almost always for sure go on sale, WWE 2K included

Yep, will be under $30 then for sure. These games are pure garbage. Notice the same bugs continually in every version. They never fix them. Yukes didn't get to do a showcase mode this year, so they just released the game 2 weeks early since they didn't need the 2 weeks to make it.

I bought last years for $30 at best buy and didn't even open it lol but I think i'll buy it again this year if it hits $30 with GOLDBERG DLC included.
 
I've had the game crash on me three times in the past hour. And seen far more glitches than usual. AI bugs, weird animation freak outs, etc.

Hope this gets some serious patch work. I had very few issues with 2K16.
 
Dear 2K and anyone thinking of buying this ripoff and you caught me in a bad mood because Gears 4 is taking forever to install


WWE is the 3D Sonic of sports games.

I downloaded the free version of 2k 16. Played for five minutes and deleted it. HDD space has become limited so it's forever in my recycle bin (ready to install section) I think it's time to clean up the recycle bin. That turd will not be seen again until Scorpio.



Seriously 2K. Is WWE just a game to test NBA 2k character models? I know that you have some very talented people. N64 WWE games were fun. They had announcers. The controls were fluid and animation was good for its day. Every concurrent game added features. Even THQ made playable WWE games.

What makes a good licensed game is being able to swap out licensed material for non licensed material and still have a good game. If you swapped out NBA teams and players for fictitious players, you are left with a good game. If Forza had fake cars it would still be a great game. But interchange your game and we are looking at this gen's Ballz or however you spell that abomination. I honestly had flashbacks of playing Super Nintendo Pit Fighter. (knew I should have gone with Ultraman)

Maybe you should just sell the license and have a more capable crew make the game. Or maybe, just maybe, because you are only in his for the momey, just maybe if you gave a shit and made a decent game then you would sell more and idk..make more money?

And then to top it off release the same crap again? You got me ef'd up

Hashtag- stop pimping my childhood

Sorry for the rant. At least Madden has turned the corner. PS3 and 360 had some dark days in the huddle. Chuck Norris isn't touching Skyscraper Vertical Jump Randy.
The Patriots even cheated in Madden.

People expect more out of WWE games and history suggests that it is possible to make good WWE games.

You couldn't even make the game current?
WWE has just reached Rock Bottom
 
I can imagine someone taking the screenshot of Dana Brooke, printing out, and making it to a sign. Once that's on Camera, I hope WWE will take notice.

If not, it will be good for a chuckle.
 
Why my character will never get up from the ground on his own unless i use a counter? Once i had a counter available and i used it to get up but then my opponent used a counter too and then i could do nothing but watch him hit me again and again. I could only wait for the counter to be available again to try to get up, but then my opponent would have a counter too...
I bought this because older games despite being bad where fun and silly party games when played with friends (and because i found it at a good price), but this feels way too slow and complicated with all these stupid minigames and dozens of bars...
Maybe i can still resell it and have back the 39€ i've spent on it...
