Are those 5 things on the side CAW Unlockables? Also Shield Seth appears to be a Persona Card

I was mocked for bringing this up on Reddit, but as someone who was looking forward to having him in a game for the first time in 20 years, I'm baffled as to how 2K messed up George Steele's tights so badly. They're incredibly simplistic, and he wore them in every single match he wrestled for a decade straight.
- He wore black trunks over his tights, so the lines shouldn't go all the way up
- The lines themselves should be thicker
- There should also be lines on the inside of his tights, not just the outside
Did 2K not look at a single reference photo? I genuinely don't understand how something like this could happen.
Yeah it's stupid they messed his attire up when it's something so simple, you aren't wrong for mentioning it.

Not being able to edit the MyFaction characters would be lame if true.
Like for example if Kane '98 was a regular character in the game you could give him the 2001 outfit, but I heard someone say they couldn't edit the 2009 Sheamus
-
Kane '98 gear being hidden in CAW Mode is the exact example I used for "watch them lock his gear out and then you can only use him in MyFaction" these past 2 years and now they did it.
At least this year it seems we can use them in any game mode but I still don't have an opinion on that; we'll have to see if it's really scummy in terms of price, if you can straight up buy them, if they have their own assets like Entrances/Themes, and if Kane '98 specifically is available early on since his gear is locked away from launch.
-
For anyone wanting to check out the new moves, The101 did a really good job because he shows both the Pin Combo and Non-Pinning versions as well as some of the Freeze Payback animations (it seems some older taunts can be used as Freeze Payback animations too but since it only shows new animations we can't see what the old ones are; I assume Doink and Harley Race's taunts from 22/23 are probably in there and something that would work for Kane and Undertaker)
SmackTalks also uploaded his Male CAW Mode Preview. Looks like about 10 new Hairstyles. Just like the Women, still no Body Morphing
-
Great Muta being in a WWE game is pretty damn cool

Seems he's got rated 81,down from 85 last game..
An 81 Overall in 2K24 is pretty much more valuable than an 85 in 2K23. The scale has been reset so 2K23 ratings shouldn't be compared to 2K24.
They also have a tendency of rating NXT talent lower than Main Roster (and getting Legends Ratings really wrong, like JBL circa 2008 is 89 which is pretty elite as he was only like IC champ level, and 2000/2001 Faarooq is 85 which is a Main Event level Overall in this game even know he was firmly in the Mid Card as a Tag guy)

I'm guessing the new moves video got made private as it's not a part of the embargo today? Shame. Anything note worthy that some of you had a chance to see?
Not sure if this is the same one or not but here's a New Finishers Preview video
-
So stupid they didn't put Taker/Kane from WM 14 in
-
I wish they'd put WCW Rude in with his GOAT theme from SlamJam.

It also just looks really, really stupid. Running at someone and tackling at full force and they somehow avoid it by putting their arm up and leaning back slightly.
Couldn't we pretty much turn the blocking off in 2K23? I know it was a A.I logic slider but am I crazy to think there was a Universal slider for it too in the options?
-
I'm sticking to my word on this one but regardless I do like some of the new features shown today.
The Spectator Mode is something I've always wanted. Could possibly be the best addition to the series this year IMO. It will be cool to see if people can master how to use it and play broadcaster.
The Trading Blows mechanic looks decent. Fire Pro influence
Throwing Weapons is super cool. Will make No DQ matches better for sure. I seen Rollins chuck a shovel I'm pretty sure, looked violent lol
Blood looks great.
If it's true that Chain Wrestling was supposed to be in but they left it out because Fight Forever has it... c'mon 2K.
1 hour ago, NiceTwice said:I like these new features they’re bringing and bringing back but I really hope they do something about grapple for moves in the future. It was part of the series for so long but bringing it back was a terrible idea. I get it’s a way to seperate weak and strong moves with the control scheme but it makes the game lose so much smoothness. That, the stances and blocking (even though I think I’m alone on that but they could always make it better)
My thoughts exactly. I seen a clip of Rollins and Rude having a match and Rollins did a Standing Submission (Crossface) and it was kinda like a look into what the game would look like with regular grapples (as that's the only non-Payback/Sig/Finisher grapple you can hit without a prerequisite of some kind). Looks so buttery smooth and would make 2K19 look like a joke but they insist on bogging it down with bad design.
-
Awful Grapple/Irish Whip Mechanics with constant Collar and Elbow Tie Ups (and the worst looking transitions ever to make it even worse): Check
Ugly Fighting Stances: Check
Not surprised but honestly this one is a pass for me. I really miss being excited for these games but I doubt they make anything good for a while at this point.

I was legit shocked at the A.I. Logic Tendencies feature just casually being revealed by Bryan last year in the middle of someone's video. I think that was the only time it was mentioned until the other embargo lifted right before the game came out and someone else (Phoenix Nitro?) went through all the options for it.
-
I'm guessing we'll get a look at a Modern, fully scanned Trish. This is the second time she's hinted her fans will be happy for 2K24. Probably a promo shot like the Becky picture that dropped earlier.

I hope they are not getting rid of the original paybacks we already had are they? I can keep things simple when it comes to choosing a payback for my character.
I'm sure all the old ones from 2K23 are there too

20 minutes ago, StillDriven said:
6 new paybacks? What could they possibly come up with lol
The three we know so far:
Iron Jaw = Deactivate your Stun State
Freeze = Scare your opponent leaving them still in place (Undertaker, Kane) or cower and then take advantage when they let their guard down (Eddie Guerrero, Ric Flair)
Fireball = Throw a Fireball at your opponent (Jerry Lawler, Hollywood Hogan, Kane, Alexa Bliss)
Then there's 2 unknown Payback abilities unlocked in MyRise, and another one we know nothing about yet. I can't think of anything else but when they stick to realistic Wrestling tropes they are usually pretty cool. Maybe something involving Referees? I want to see stuff that Heels can use I guess.

Looking at new moves,the Soul Snatcher has to be in...
Front corner grapple? Opponent groggy in the corner? Both?
In theory it could be a Corner Springboard as well, they would have to add the Corner Springboards as Finishers this time though

This is great to have confirmed.
As long as you aren't limited to only 1 or 2 in the same position this is GREAT! It helps alleviate some of the problems that comes from the Grab system. Now in theory I should be able to put 5 of somone's Front Grapples as Signatures so they don't need to Collar and Elbow before they do the move.
I'll hold my breath though incase they say you can only have 2 per position which doesn't ruin the feature as it's still useful, but in that case it wouldn't help anymore than Sigs do in 23 for their bad gameplay design caused by the Grab system (which seems to be still in the game judging by the fact they haven't said they brought back the lunging grapples)
--------
The Iron Jaw and Freeze Paybacks sound great. I assume Harley Race's DLC taunt last year with the hidden attack was pretty much the Preview of the Freeze Payback.
-
I was about to happy that you could have 5 Sigs and 5 Finishers because that would help the Grappling problem I have where you always have to Combo or Collar & Elbow to do Grapples like a Spinebuster, Backbreaker etc because then you can just use some of their stronger moves as Sigs and for some people bump some of their Sigs up to a Finisher if it makes sense but as soon as I came to that conclusion I realized Lynell means you can store 5 of each.
Wow, what a disappointment.

"Showcase roster unlocked" is very new, very specific wording. Definitely would imagine that there are additional unlocks in MyRise again that aren't unlocked with the unlock feature.
I think it's because the Supercharger unlocks the Normal Unlockables you get with the In Game Currency and then this Unlocker will unlock the Showcase Mode content (hopefully the arenas too). Only other mode is MyRise if they have stuff in there (which I imagine they will again)

Moving the camera during Gameplay sounds interesting

It seems you can argue with the Referee again after doing certain actions. I'm liking all the advancements to Heel tactics in this game
