  1. I think Fight Forever kinda got the collision stuff down from the old AKI games, but yeah I know what you mean. FirePro is similar in that sense that big moves feel like big moves. 2K is kinda close but with the visible meters you pretty much know where you stand with taking down an opponent or if you're cooked. Going back to 2K, I did the live event triple threat with Auska and Bianca to get the Sapphire Charlotte card and in my first attempt, the most WWE thing happened, Auska tossed Bianca out of the ring, I attack Auska and hit my finisher on her, BIanca gets back in the ring, hits a move on me which puts me in stun status, tosses me out of the ring and she hit her finisher on Auska and I can't get up in time to break up the pin. So I guess the gameplay is pretty realistic.
  2. Are you referring to the Cody, Dusty, Pharaoh, and 2017 Rhea and Bianca cards? I don't really use Rhea and Bianca too much now since I picked up better cards but the Cody and Dusty are still in my lineup. Since I run strikers usually Pharaoh doesn't really work for my lineups, but it's a good manager card to have. Nice to have but not a necessity. I'll have to do a few more Faction War runs to get more points. How did you get a Roman? I didn't have a data deletion issue was it automatic or something? I just kept replaying some of the easier proving grounds matches to evolve Blair and Waller. And don't get me started on those CAWs in the first run. Silence is comically overpowered especially if you're trying to play on legendary to get the additional medal for more rewards.
  3. This plus the clip floating around online of Cardona/Maki Itoh with his low blows to her not working is an interesting contrast.
  4. I bought a pack from each series that's been released and it wasn't great but with initial packs having a Blair Davenport and a Grayson Waller that I was able to evolve from Emerald to Ruby has been a big help. On the men's side I got the Elite Cody and Dusty cards and the locker code for the Elite Cena so my men's lineup is decent right now. Women's side it ok with a Ruby Davenport, Ruby Becky and I got an Emerald Indi Hartwell from the token marketplace and the gold 2017 Bianca from the deluxe edition. And I have Sapphire free agent Karrion Kross and Dakota Kai cards if needed from the weekly towers. I'm trying to stick with strikers based on what's the easier playstyle with underpowered cards. That submission only tower was nasty though. I'd have to hit like 3 finishers then slap on a submission to have a chance. With that said, I'm digging the Faction Wars, I just wish some of these cards you acquire during the runs you can keep. I picked up a Sapphire Trish and Eva and I'm like "Damn, these would be nice to have in the lineup." I need to try out the other modes to get more cards eh?
  5. Got the Ruby Becky Lynch today. I'm wondering how this MyFaction mode will play out long term. The packs you can buy now are pretty garbage (I haven't gotten one decent card aside from a Gold Waller which didn't matter because I got an Emerald Waller that I was able to upgrade to a Ruby. Heck I got a Gold Santos manager card in a free pack from logging in 5 days this week. I'm also trying to figure out if buying the Deluxe pack is better than the standard pack too.
  6. Also for anyone that plays MyFaction, for those tiered rewards, do you have to do anything to get the rewards for the higher tiers or is it just RNG? I did the 6 woman tag match one with the Ruby Becky Lynch and got the lowest possible reward but I don't know if I need to do something different or if I just have to play a bunch of times to get it. Also I've noticed there must be a mechanic that you can only breakup so many pinfalls in tag matches which makes those matches odd at the end.
  7. Some of them are way different from last year. A lot of folks got downgraded (Theory and Waller stand out the most to me) and like Cliff Hanger said, the NXT main eventers are like 5-6 points lower than last year. Big E's downgrade is particularly egregious to me, the man is injured you can't just put him in the 70s for that!
  8. I can't get over Saraya's brother looking like the lost child of Colt Cabana and Brody King.
  9. As someone who bought the super duper special ultimate edition, I have some MyFaction slots to unlock: Someone between the Elite Cody Action Figure and Elton Prince Someone between The Hurricane and Ilja Someone between Seth and 2015 Seth so I'm guessing another Seth variant Someone between Trick Williams and Triple H The all have a MF indicator next to the slot. There are unlocked people for me with a SHC indicator (Andre, Bret Hart and '92 Bret are examples) so I assume they would come from the Showcase mode but they were available for me once the game unlocked for me last night. It was actually kinda cool to unlock guys after I played the showcase mode last year after holding off for so long so I assume there won't be extra guys for me to unlock after that. And I can't see myself dumping money into MyFaction if there's only 4 people to unlock and they're most likely variants of existing wrestlers.
  10. Yeah, if you look at the actual NIL distribution it's like most of life, very top heavy so there were always going to be more guys who took the $600 and copy of the game than not. Arch's PR person already tried to spin it and say he wanted to wait to become a starter before being in the game. Sure bud, that'll make a big difference.
  11. The model choices are always interesting in these games too. Like Josh Briggs has his usually jeans and plaid cutoff outfit but Brooks Jensen has his red shorts with stripes side and slick backed hair from his brief run with Kianna James last year. I think playing back to back years in 10+ years for me helps with the mechanics for this game since there's a lot of stuff you can do. But I'm digging it again. Just gotta wait for the creators to fill out these rosters a bit.
  12. The main appeal to MyFaction this year to me is that you can actually unlock people to use in other modes this year. I'd never touch it otherwise.
  13. I need to take a look at my PS5 controller since I'm noting some drift on the left analog stick.
  14. Finished up my NG+ of FF16 yesterday and got the Platinum in the process for my first PS5 Platinum. I enjoyed the 2nd playthrough and using the different abilities in all sections of the game. Getting the ability points to use different combinations of abilities with the Ikons was fun and my strategy changed a lot over the course of the playthrough based on if I was dealing with a boss/big stagger enemy or waves of lesser enemies.
  15. Working through my 2nd playthrough on FF16 on Final Fantasy mode. I'll actually platinum the game once I finish it which is rarity for me. Maybe I'll actually play FF7 Remake after. Or I'll be stuck playing 2k24 when it releases.
