Hey guys, long time lurker first time poster. Finally got around to making a forum account. blush.gif

 

So I'm working on a storyline that I'm pretty excited about. It's called "The End of PG" and aims to dissect the current "kid friendly" product by stirring the pot with icons of the old Attitude Era (i.e. Rock and Stone Cold) in an effort to make WWE "fun again." It starts the week before Royal Rumble and will end at WrestleMania, with the primary feud focusing on John Cena and CM Punk (the new-age leader of the old "Attitude" mentality). The writing in the promos is going to be very edgy and laden with smark-friendly humor. I'm basically writing my dream scenario, or how I would handle the meteoric rise of CM Punk going into this year's WrestleMania.

 

Depending on how long it takes (I'm very anal about everything... crowd reactions, camera angles, the whole nine yards) I might continue the arc later on if people like it. I'll update this thread as soon as I get it posted, so stay tuned. :D

So I hit a pretty big brick wall with my story yesterday. Fortunately I've already fixed it, but I really need to vent for a second.

 

I was about four shows into my arc, which involved some really funny stuff with The Rock (he also won the Royal Rumble and was set to be the big final match of the whole deal). Then I read that you can't use DLC if you want to upload your story, not even the THQ-sponsored stuff you have to pay extra for. So they basically made a game and slapped one of the most iconic wrestlers ever on the cover (The Rock on the People's Edition) but you CAN'T USE HIM for custom stories since he's technically DLC. I mean... WHAT?!

 

Okay, rant over. In other news the story is coming along really well, and Stone Cold has turned out to be a really fun idea in this project. :)

If you leave it editable, and just write the stuff for The Rock... then we can just swap him in after, can't we?

 

Yes, that is a pretty common workaround from what I've come to understand. However, it shouldn't even be an issue in the first place. There is a pretty large group of people out there who don't want to have to fiddle with the create-a-story settings and just want to enjoy somebody else's masterpiece, so by making a story that requires heavy editing would reduce your potential audience quite a bit. Seriously, all it takes is to code a simple If / Then sequence where the Community Creations server detects whatever DLC a user has on their HD. If you don't have all the DLC the story requires, a pop-up would inform you of this and not allow you to download the story. Boom, problem solved. It would also increase DLC sales, I'm sure of it. The fact that THQ didn't do this in the first place is an unacceptable oversight.

 

But I digress. I'm still having a blast and a half working on my storyline (now without the Rock, sadly) and hope to finish it in another week or two. All I'm gonna say is that "The End of PG" is going to be the RTWM story we SHOULD have had in this game. It's pretty epic, and holy crap writing Punk promos is fun. :)

Sounds interesting. Ill be on the lookout for it when you get done with it.

 

Thanks! I'll be sure to post an update once it's finished. I'm halfway done, just got done booking the Elimination Chamber and started the home stretch to WrestleMania. Despite all its faults, I've seriously fallen in love with the story creator. I find myself AGONIZING over such stupid little details and timing crowd creations with the right frames, but when it clicks it's so awesome. It's taking me a bit longer than I had hoped, and between working a full-time job and it being the holiday season my free time is at a premium. I'm certain I'll have it done and polished by New Years though.

 

This is admittedly a shameless plug, but if you grew up in a time when you said "WWF" instead of "WWE Universe," this storyline is for you. :D

Since you can't bring back The Rock for your story, why not bring back DX Triple H from the attitude era to provide more humor for everyone.

 

I thought about that, but since I can't really use Shawn either I decided to go in a different direction with Hunter. In my story he's the Smackdown GM. :)

 

I will say this though. An old Attitude Era stable DOES get rebooted, but it's not DX. Let's just say that certain people call a certain PPV the ElimiNATION Chamber. :D

Sweet merciful CHRIST the language filter on the Community Creations server is sensitive. I decided to break "The End of PG" into two parts and just finished uploading the first bit, and it prompted me about language filtering. It wouldn't even accept lines like "Austin 3:16 is about as relevant as a Beanie Baby," let alone my favorite commentary table lead-in "...and then she FILLED the CUP, Cole! I was hard as a turtle shell!" I got too frustrated with the fix-it prompts so I just threw my hands up and let the game put **** stuff everywhere. I'm playing through it now to assess the damage. :fedup:

 

So yeah, "The End of PG: Part 1" is now uploaded on XBL (keywords WH2K, ATTITUDE and CENSORSHIP) and contains everything from the Rumble to and including Elimination Chamber. I'm glad I did this, because now I can be somewhat prepared for the filter in Part 2. Prepare for some hilariously bad edits. >:(

Wow, thanks man! I'm taking a break from this until Christmas is over, plus the whole language filter really bummed me out. I played through the first few shows and they censored SO MANY awesome lines, and not even vulgar ones. It doesn't like the word "millionaire" for example. Heck, you can't even use some of the wrestler's NAMES (Christian and Yoshi Tatsu) and it doesn't like the word "hell." How are you supposed to talk about a Hell in a Cell match if you can't even say it?

 

Anyway, thanks for sticking it out. Approximately how much of the dialogue got censored would you say? Half maybe? I plan to re-upload a revised version that somehow manages to skirt this stupid filter, if I can figure out how. I mean, it's WAY more funny when you can actually read how angry Mason Ryan gets when everyone keeps calling him Batista. :D

Merry Christmas, guys an' gals! I tried uploading a new "filter-friendly" version of "The End of PG: PT 1" and it was a success! The first time I uploaded I had to re-start the whole editing process three times due to disconnects, and after having to edit the same twenty lines of dialogue over and over you get pretty frustrated lol. Anyway, a new version is up on XBL (keywords WH2K, ATTITUDE and CENSORSHIP) and it indicates the version 2.0 in the description. I hope you all enjoy it, it's a labor of love from a guy who has been a wrestling fan for eighteen years and just kinda misses "The Old Days." This game gave me the perfect outlet, and even though I don't like some of the decisions THQ made (just let us use THE ROCK, seriously!) I'm still really glad I bought this game. :)

I will download it next time im on :). Also can i do a walkthrough of your story on youtube and share it with my subscribers?

 

I also miss the old days, i remember growing up watching Austin and Vince go at each other every week and the monday night wars but with as they say all good things must come to an end. I know it sucks that you cant use dlc in created stories, i believe it should be a system like the online and only allow the people with dlc to download it.

Absolutely! Spread the word man, my only request is that you credit me using my XBL gamer tag "TehRen3gade" instead of my forum name here. Gotta pimp the profile to bring in the downloads, brutha. Go nuts with the YouTube thing and toss me some feedback after you get through it. :)

I would just like to take this opportunity to point out the irony of how my Austin/Lesnar feud goes down, and what happened to Brock Lesnar last night at UFC 141. I can see the freakin' FUTURE, man! :lol:

 

Also, quick question... is anybody noticing "invisible" characters during certain Smackdown cutscenes? I know I was warned about this, but I still used a few custom Superstar Threads for Mark Henry and a few others, and I'm getting reports of people getting thrown through car windows by ghosts and other craziness. Any feedback you guys can provide would be awesome.

 

Happy New Year!

I've played a little bit of your story and I have to say that I'm enjoying it so far.

 

Its different. I admire people who are willing to think outside the box, and come up with something original. It stands out from the other hundreds of other stories on CC that are nearly identical to what is on actual WWE television.

 

I'm pretty sure that I'm going to give it a full play through. And I'll probably send you a friend request on XBL to keep up with updates and what not.

 

So keep up the good work.

 

*Shameless plug :D : I'd like to think that my story is different as well. If you ever get the time to play other stories, maybe you could check out mine, "Undisputed", and let me know what you think.* End plug

 

Lastly, I love how ridiculously "good" you made Cena. Fruity pebbles and all.
