What do you want in a WWE videogame?

[Dirty Hazy]

I've got some ideas, wonder if you all have many of the same...?

-mode to create stages/sets, logos from ring aprons, colors of ropes. -

-I'm thinking they should even let us edit existing sets so we can use alternate logos, color schemes, misc desgins

-fully editable existing roster, nicknames, attires, hair color/style etc!

-ability to fight in/thru the crowd

-ability to throw someone off the HIAC and thru announce table

-men and women can fight eachother in ANY MATCH

-Hornswoggle/Teddy/etc as playable/selectable character. If they are in the game, let us USE them in exhibition!!!

-give us themes to superstars not in the game and other good usable themes

-let us control our Rumble entrance manually or semi-manually. Maybe U din't want to enter right away, maybe I want to eliminate from the outside or something

-let us climb stages that look climbable, let us fight up the ramp, onto the stage, and through the curtain into various backstage areas... or fight alongside the ramp and around the side of the stage on our way to the back!

-let us create a backstage room or area! I'm thinking a gym with a practice ring we can fight in!!!

-ability to wear 2 bets around our waist ala Kurt as Euro-Continental Champ, belt over each shoulder(Cruiserweight and US?), one around the neck(Hardcore?), and still one more for each hand(World Tag Title in left, WWE Tag in right?)

-give us people not currently on the roster that as possible ala the legends we always get. You telling me we can't get RVD as an unlockable, or Hardcore Holly, Molly Holly, Crash Holly, Razor Ramon, King Kong Bundy, Yokozuna, Ultimate Warrior, Savage, Gangrel, Blue Meanie, Sandman, Big Fat Oily Guy, Runjin Singh, Ken Shamrock, Brock Lesnar, Eric Angle, Oddities, Headbangers, D-Lo, Val Venis, Ivory, Paul Bearer, APA, LoD, Sunny, Stacy Keibler, Torrie Wilson, or freaking X-Pac!?! Come on, ANY of them is better than fighting orange and green training dummies!!!

- Fully editable wrestlers. Changing the colours is nice, but I wanna be able to give people different attires

- A proper HIAC. It's always the same one in Smackdown, with the same 2 panels on the top and the same animation when you put someone through it.

- It would be pretty cool if you could break up any move. So if you're doing a triple threat and someone's doing a powerbomb on someone else, you can kick the guy and stop it.

- Being able to leave the ring in a Royal Rumble match. Like go through the middle rope and get some weapons.

- Proper weight detection.

The triple threat is a nice idea in concept but really it would be bad for the gameplay because nobody would ever even get to do a move, cuz everybody would keep interrupting the other person's move.

Other than better all around gameplay, no glitches and possibly a different maker all together, I like the idea of mixing and matching different eras of attires for people.

Example - Triple H

Hair - Ponytail, Long

Facial Hair - None, Beard ('99-'05, '07-now), Handlebars ('05-'07)

Elbow Pads - None, Plain Pads, Logo Pads ('08?-now)

Wrist Tape - None, Wrists Only, Wrists and Right Hand

Attire - CT Blueblood Tights ('95-'97), DX Tights ('98-'99), McMahon-Helmsley Era Trunks ('00-'01), Evolution Trunks ('02-'05), King Of Kings Trunks (WM22), DX Trunks ('06-'07), Current Trunks ('08-now), DX Army Trunks (now)

Knee Pads - None, H Pads ('97-'99?), Pads with Right Taped and Left Braced ('00-'01), Plain ('02-'04), Pads with Both Taped ('04-'07), Pads with Extensive Taping ('07-now)

Boots - None, CT Blueblood Boots, Plain Boots, Logo Boots (?-now)

Entrance Attire - CT Blueblood Tuxedo, King Of Kings Regalia, DX Army Hat and Shirt

It would be pretty damn extensive once you dig into the roster.

Simple: All I want is a game that somehow manages to not get old after twenty minutes. There has to be a proper marriage of gameplay mechanics and storytelling. SvR continually fails to do this. You always get into a daily grind of fighting through your matches when playing a story or career mode. In real wrestling, matches suffer from becoming too formulaic, why should the game be any different? I want variables, damnit! Having the computer incessantly counter moves doesn't get the job done. They need to somehow capture the feeling of trying to chop down someone like Knox with someone like Rey, and they haven't figured that out yet.

I would like to be able to create an arena from the screens to the lights and ramps.

In story mode I would like to have free rain in the back the whole show and be able to come out into the arena when I fill like it. If a match is going on I would come running out and interfere or just come out and watch the match or join the announce table.

Also I would like to be able to hit my music at anytime during the show and crab a microphone and call out any one or say anything that I want. The microphone would come with the game that you could plug in to the usb port.

So pretty much just like a real show and no limits to the game I know most of this is impossible but awesome non the less.

[Perigryn]

-All Superstars' clothing be available to use for created wrestlers and usable for males and females.

-Bring back clothing patterns and allow people to create their own and share them.

-More entrance stuff (taunts, lighting, pyro, screen fx, etc): Gangrel's ring of fire, Pirate Burchill's rope swing, Max Moon's streamer cannons, Papa Shango's smoking skull, MNM's papparazzi/Godfather's Hos being usable for any entrance, etc). Have different walking styles that you can add a taunt in whenever so it doesn't have to cut away to hide the animation switch.

This is why World Tour and Revenge were awesome...nothing like dominating people from gimmicks from 10 years prior.

Never played Day Of Reckoning? I loved that you stop people in mid-move, makes it more realistic.

["The Rated XXX Superstar" Jed]

Agree with you guys on...

-men and women can fight eachother in ANY MATCH

-give us themes to superstars not in the game and other good usable themes


- Being able to leave the ring in a Royal Rumble match. Like go through the middle rope and get some weapons.


Also, how about customizable crowd signs?

[Sajoa Moe]

This would probably take up a lot of memory, but how about a voice modulator for CAWs? You'd start with a basic voice, then use a soundboard to customize bass, pitch, volume, accent, etc.

It would be a lot better than having to pick between Weiner, Suave Black Guy, and Demonface.

[chac]

More extensive call name system.

[Lazy peon]

How about no more ridiculous restrictions on everything.

[default]

A gameplay built up some from the N64 THQ games.

More customization. Custom arenas or backstage arenas would be great. Sort of like Tony Hawk's builders where you pick out your tables, ladders, etc. and can set them up, some floor/wall color changes/patterns. More custom clothes. Weapons for entrances. More custom music and ability to turn a "highlight reel" into a Titan Tron.

[Fiddleford H. McGucket]

-Actual Branching Storylines based on whether you win or lose (Like in No Mercy)

- Ability to Change entire proportions without deforming the character (So you can make a believable King Kong Bundy, Yokozuna etc)

- A real Career mode

- A "Pre-Season" mode for CAWs

- Create a Belt/Arena/PPV mode

- DLC within 6-8 months with roster/entrance theme/moveset updates for wrestlers on the REAL roster at the time of the game's release.

- Gimmick voices/Chants ala WWF Warzone/Attitude

- Failing that, have a voice option where you can record your own voice(s) for the scripted events via headset

- Stop the pointless "Playlist" thing for downloaded music.

- Make unlockables mean something, anyone on the active roster is not "unlockable-worthy" please make it to where only legends are unlockable.

This is everything i want


A Storyline mode that changes if you lose/win,etc

[CMWaters]

Randy Savage.

[The Divan Kopile]

somehow, someway in some form put the hardcore title in and incorporate the 24/7 rule

Please explain in the best detail you can, because I don't follow.

[deancubed]

All I want is a more full-featured GM mode - that was my favorite part and they keep taking it out or making it suck.
