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.

Holy fuck, I'm glad I upgraded to a PS4.

 

The PS3 versions don't look nearly that bad.

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.

Well, that's pretty much the narrative for his second ECW run. Continuity!

[Hail Sabin]

I really like how the game put Emma vs Paige for NXT women's title as the feud right from the get go in the wwe universe.

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]

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!

[Michael Sweetser]

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.

[Tromatagon]

I just realized that there hasn't been a non WWE wrestling game commercially released since 2010

Just a few indy games.

[Firebreaker Chip]

for people on PS4, community creations user "Foreignii" has done some pretty excellent glitched edits with changes to the faces of in-game models

 

There is e.g. Stardust with different paint/gear, most of Balor's Takeover attires and some of his New Japan ones and an updated Evil Emma reskin

[The Great ML]

Does anyone know how to possibly rename attires for CAW's?

[Playa Shunna Ver 3.0]

Samoa Joe DLC is supposedly out.

[Playa Shunna Ver 3.0]

Apparently it got released ahead of the scheduled release date.

How much and who?

[steve]

Reading the patch notes, it seems like they prepped the game for the DLC. Like, it's in there now, but not available yet.

[Ramsey]

So, I haven't tried Universe mode yet because I can never seem to get it my week cleared of WWE shows. I want my universe built with nothing but my shows/rosters/ppvs but I can't seem to dump Smackdown. I've even reset the Universe but keep running into the same problem. Thoughts? Ideas?

[steve]

Are you trying to delete everything first, then put your stuff in? I think you have to have at least one show/ppv, so delete everything but SD!, add something of yours, then try deleting it. Also, if you've added your shows, but they're listed with a "!", that means something is preventing them from being active, like having too small of a roster or something.

I'll see if that's what I did and check it out. If not, I'll come back here whining about it.

[Jiji]

Have search hashtags in community creations been the shits for anybody else since the new patch came out?

[mattdangerously]

Yes. I tried doing a search for Rey Mysterio, and nothing comes back, despite there being a fucking Rey Mysterio CAW on the first page. The hashtags built into the game only work slightly better.

[Jiji]

I wonder how long we have to wait until they fix this one. 

[NikoBaltimore]

I just tried searching last night and couldn't find much of anything.  I'm hoping 2K patches this up soon.  Heck, I wish there was a way to roll back a patch just so I can actually use the search function.  Oh, well, thankfully I have enough downloaded to work with until then.

[The Outsider]

I actually haven't been able to connect online all week. I tried the wifi connection and then went wired with no effect at all.
