Bushy.

I honestly prefer the new button mashing mini games for both pin & submission than any other game. I never, ever liked or got the hang of the submission wheel. I liked the pin meter from 2K19 but I can’t tell you how many times I can kick out of of 5 finishers but fall to a regular strike or grapple. The worst was definitely tapping out to normal submissions. In 2K19 with the submission button mashing, if you’ve pretty much depleted all your health, you’re auto tapping out and there’s nothing you can do about it. You at least have a chance in 2K22.

That’s definitely not true. The higher the button mashing is to the nester the tighter I see the wrestler wrench on the submission. The less you press, the less tension you see applied.

Yes, but I don’t see it as reactionary. Jade was always planned. They didn’t have Swerve or Keith Lee but that was expected they’d get pushed. They say Scorpio Sky’s push was always the plan so who knows. As a POC, I’m happy the direction they’re going in. It doesn’t feel forced, because all the black talent they have is actually *censored*ing good. No offense to legends like Booker T, Bobby Lashley or Mark Henry, but growing up I never felt connected to them like guys like Swerve, Keith Lee or even a guy like Carmelo Hayes in NXT.

It honestly does annoy me that these small Indy companies get to have these first time dream matches between AEW talent, not on AEW shows. On one hand, I’m glad TK lets talent earn money elsewhere, but it really does take away the specialness of a lot of these matches and guys wrestling everywhere. And I say that as someone who’s seen AEW wrestlers at my small local Indy. btw I’m not talking about Briscoes/FTR

Yeah you did the right thing. I was gonna suggest combining the two as well.

Gotta say, despite the flaws this game has, I’m enjoying this gameplay more than 2K19 right now. And that was my favorite ever.

Is that the first name change that was done to not effect guys coming in ? If so, I’m surprised they didn’t change Brody King’s name. I know they kinda cut off Swerve’s first name too which surprised me.

I don’t want to see that tbh. Don’t care how much they love Bret. Would it be cool for a big match ? Sure. But him replacing Tully as a full time manager would be dumb.

Do y’all actually watch and enjoy NXT still ? Everytime I see them on Twitter it’s about how horny the show is and people making out with each other.

And they also took out squash matches.

Great show ! Loved Rosa winning the belt and the confetti celebration. AEW needs to tone down on the blood though even though it was expected tonight. I’m fine with thumbtacks taking a long ass break. They mean nothing anymore and AEW has abused the spot to death.

Anyone hate how inconsistent the quality in renders are ? Some are HD, and other just look like pictures taken from a phone. And there doesn’t seem to be a proportionate scaling used for heights and stuff. I know it’s minor, but it does bother me lol. Especially when we had in game models that were pretty much all even.

What have you been downloading ? I honestly haven’t seen anything that catches my eye. Maybe it’s because I don’t feel like I need to have the most up to date latest attires anymore but I’ve been underwhelmed by CC. Seeing 50 uploads of “Butch” hasn’t helped either. Ugh.

That’s exactly what I was saying yesterday. Yet the earlier matches in showcase didn’t have them if I recall.

Butch Cant feel bad for him at all. He chose to stay.

Am I the only one that finds it weird that they have filters for the showcase matches that take place in the mid 2010’s? Lol

Servers don’t even work for me. Just getting errors non stop.

I know. It’s so dumb.

It sucks because Patrick Gilmore said he was going to look out for us. And the thing about modding is the 2K modding site is anti piracy, you need to have the game Steam verified to even download anything, and the discord chat won’t help for pirated versions. So 2K will forever make $90 for 2K19 Deluxe on PC for whoever wants to start modding.

damn defract too. No more CAWs from him ?

Status selling out is so lame smh. Disappointing.

man I love this game so much. Wrapped up playing 2K19 today and don’t miss it.

This is why I try to get as much stuff as I can in person. As someone who delivers for FedEx, I know there’s a million reasons why packages can get delayed, I rather just get it myself. Obviously I don’t know your living situations and circumstances, but just equating it to my life. This is actually the first time I’ve ever downloaded the game day one digitally though.

There is. But the new pin meter sucks tbh. I’ve been hit with finishers and was still able to kick out so I don’t mind the button mashing mini game this year.

I haven’t seen anyone say it’s the same lol
