WWE Games Thread 73: Welcome to Suplex City

[A Platypus Rave is Correct]

as an update to earlier I have now noticed that non-finisher submissions are a massive pain in the ass to get.

I was using someone that was maxed in submission offense and the persons entire body was white and still nothing...

Now I've unlocked everything, why is there a Brothers of Destruction 2 tag entrance but no Brothers of Destruction 1?

I BELIEVE the first one only appears when you check for it when you're changing the Brother's of Destruction entrance. It's exclusive to them for some reason.

I love having a last man standing match of Undertaker 91 vs Current Undertaker

[A Platypus Rave is Correct]

They fixed adn changed a shitload in this patch...

• The alternate submission mini-game has been tuned to last longer. Limb Damage is now weighted more heavily in the mini-game. The penalty for incorrect button presses has also been removed

it not weighing limb damage explains a lot actually.

[A Platypus Rave is Correct]

• Chris Jericho’s hometown is now announced correctly

I choose to believe he was being announced from Winnatoba.

[Alyce: Old Media Enthusiast]

Biggest thing for me is they're fixing tag matches in Universe. I can finally enjoy them.

[Deleted]

Sounds like they didn't fix the issue of the game just kind of permanently deciding to make a person champion with seemingly no way to get around it, custom belts' names being completely distorted if just plain not being said, or the ability to move around the nickname feature in CAWs just plain not working.

Still, ton of good done this time around done in a short amount of time. Almost like they knowingly shipped the game unfinished.

I read it was 5.6 or something like that.. did you not do it first update so you have to do both or something?

[A Platypus Rave is Correct]

the patch also includes the next round of DLC so I could believe it's potentially that big

Yeah, now it says 3.949, so maybe it was an early issue. Definitely not as bad as I thought.

[Deleted]

So Legends pack is up first. I really don't know what's with this games that they always take their time about releasing the pack of current guys last, it's a really baffling practice and they always do it.

That said... Eh? Nothing really against the Legends pack but it's easily the least interesting one to me. Only one I really care about getting in it is Sid.

[Alyce: Old Media Enthusiast]

And installed.

First thing I notice is the opening isn't stuttery anymore

[Alyce: Old Media Enthusiast]

And testing and... yes you can control both partners automatically in tag team matches, or alternate by pressing the touch pad.

Also "next match" actually takes you to the next match, not back to the menu.

Give it a couple minutes. It takes a while.

Unless I'm reading that wrong, they haven't fixed the bug where your PS4's harddrive is wiped if you leave it on rest mode.

Yeah, I wouldn't recommend testing that out until we know for sure if they're finding a fix to that
