Spritenaut 32 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 I still don't know who the middle guy in the second row is supposed to be. Was the Belfast Bruiser in the game for some reason? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Sweetser Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Yeah, Finlay was in last year's game and they brought him forward to this year's as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattdangerously Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Sorry for getting nerdy here, but I'm curious as to how people are playing this game in comparison to myself. I haven't tried Universe mode yet. I'll probably give it a try once I've filled up my CAW slots, but I'm in no hurry because in previous years it's always felt super-repetitive. I just book matches in Exhibition mode. How do you treat all the various different incarnations of the same wrestler? Do you just pick a favorite version, like Cactus Jack, and ignore the other iterations? I try to find roles for them all. For example, Cactus Jack is my babyface version of Foley, while Dude Love and Mankind are both in different heel stables. Bikertaker is a face, Attitude Era Taker is leading a heel stable (Ministry of Darkness), and current Taker is in a tag with current Sting. Anyone stumble onto any fun tag team combinations or stables? I put Rude and Breeze together under the name "Pretty Ravishing," Mark Henry, Bigelow and Vader as "Hall Of Pain" (couldn't think of anything better), and Rollins, Owens and Corbin as "Triple Threat" (Corbin makes a great heater).

Ramsey Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 I don't use Universe mode at all either. I'm also an exhibition booker. I hand pick guys I want from the main roster/NXT and then mix them with CAWS and create my own fed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Sweetser Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 I've just sort of been dinking around in MyCareer. It takes so long to get any traction, though. I think I've redone my gimmick about six times now - current on a Fandango/Miz crossover type. Does Universe Mode actually have different types of feuds and whatnot to get into? It all seems really repetitive now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattdangerously Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 I have the Wyatts as faces, and will on rare occassions use Bray and Dean as a tag team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fat and the Filthy? That's not a terrible team. Only way you could make it better would be to replace Ambrose with... literally anyone else.

My take on them was sort of a 21st century take on Bob Orton Jr. and Dick Slater...if Bob Orton Jr. was really shitty on offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brandonr4s Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 I'm either a gluten for punishment or an idiot (both?) for playing online again. Assholes are back in full force. It used to be the heart punch. 2K wisely patched it, so now it's the leg sweep. They'll do a leg sweep, you'll reverse, and they can pull of another leg sweep before you can react. With limited reversals, you can imagine how fucked you are. That or the "butt bump" that's virtually impossible to reverse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hail Sabin Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Download lots of sweet CAWS. Cesaro took the US title off of Seth in the 1st week and Vader will take the IC title at some in his program with Ryback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirSmUgly Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 I appreciate that wrestling against Brock Lesnar on Hard or Legend difficulty feels like a real boss fight. I noticed that they hide his reversal bar, which means either 1) you can't see how many reversals he has left and thus press the advantage when he is out of them, or 2) he has unlimited reversals. Either way, it's a nice touch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way, it's a nice touch. This is what happens when you challenge a champ and you're too low ranked. He has unlimited reversals. When you actually are ranked high enough to deserve a title shot, he'll have his regular reversal bar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L_W_P Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Ha! So I've had Ambrose and harper going back and forth with Wyatt and Rowan for the tag titles when out of nowhere MIKEY WHIPWRECK joins up with the Wyatt Family to beat down Harper after a match. I don't know why but Whipwreck joining a wrestling cult to try and win some matches just feels right! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattdangerously Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Well, that's pretty much the narrative for his second ECW run. Continuity! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

damnnearfonzie Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Anyone else diggin' on the *new* DLC with Dusty and my main man, Mr.PERFECT?!!!I personally can't wait for the release of "Earthquake"!!! He was half of my fave tag-team to use on WRESTLEFEST.Jake The Snake was the other half.Use Jakes DDT as the first part of the finisher, then tag in EARTHQUAKE to jump around the fallen foe several times, then run against the ropes and KILL with a running butt splash!!!!I hope the hell that finisher,Earthquakes, is still in the game...it was year's ago.

mattdangerously Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 I'm happy with how easy it is to create accurate bunkhouse match attire for Dusty. You can finally put the knee pads over the jeans! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Sweetser Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 You can put kneepads over jeans, but you can't put trunks over tights. The CAW suite is light years ahead of 2K15 but still behind, say, any other game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
