Universe mode is being a real piece of crap.

For me, Universe mode works fine, but I'm starting to get bit bored with it. It repeats same storylines, cutscenes and when using rivalry manager, the rivals face each other almost every week repeating the same match types like falls count anywhere, extreme rules and submission matches. Just not that interested with it anymore..

 

Yeah same here , the only reason I am still playing universe is because the A.I is really fun to play against , If the A.I was like last year I wouldn't still be playing Universe Mode. That's the only reason that keeps me playing Universe Mode.

Yeah universe is a little buggy with putting same matches together for example:

 

In my 1996 Universe The Rivalry was Diesel vs HBK for the Title. Match one was Diesel vs Bret Hart I went in and changed Brets Universe attire to his Wrestlemania 12 attire and came back and the match was now changed to Diesel vs Shawn extreme rules.

 

I just don't understand the logic universe uses. If match one was suppose to be Diesel vs the number two contender why would it then default to HBK why not the third contender?

Other than the no finisher icons nothing you said in your post is broken or a glitch. Turn off interference next time.

 

There are tons of glitches with entrances and created arenas in Universe Mode

 

 

Thanks for the info? I don't remember asking but alright.

Yeah, the entrances get a little wonky sometimes and a few of the finishers don't work exactly right (the ring post figure four for one, sometimes it has you do a backhand slap instead) and I've had a few freezes post match but nothing nearly as bad as last year where it would always freeze up after 1-3 matches. Overall, I'm enjoying this year's game quite a bit despite the minor irritations.

Universe is awesome if you book it for yourself.

Just a example...
Minor Show - Main Event

1. Week
Shawn Michaels vs. Dean Ambrose (Universe created it)
I interfered as Seth Rollins to take out HBK. Ambrose wins.

2. Week
Shawn Michaels vs. Dean Ambrose & Seth Rollins in a Handicap match (my creation)
Cutscenes:
-Pre-match: Ambrose attacks HBK from behind
-Mid-match: Daniel Bryan runs, but turns on HBK to attack him
-Post-match: Rollins & Ambrose are about to attack HBK, but Triple H makes the save
Winners: Rollins & Ambrose

3. Week
The Shield (Rollins & Ambrose) & Daniel Bryan vs. HBK, Triple H & John Cena (my creation)
Cutscenes:
-Pre-match: "Good luck" between Rollins and Ambrose
-Mid-match: Daniel Bryan leaves his team alone
Winners: HBK, Triple H & John Cena

4. Week
Seth Rollins w/Roman Reigns vs. Daniel Bryan (Universe creation)
Cutscenes:
-Pre-match: John Cena in the crowd
-mid-match: John Cena punches Seth Rollins
-post-match: Layla alignes herself with Seth Rollins
Winner: Seth Rollins

5. Week
Layla w/Seth Rollins vs. Aksana (My Creation)
Cutscenes:
-mid-match: Rollins gets banned from ringside
-post-match: Natayla (Divas Champion) attacks Layla with the belt
Winner: Layla

Daniel Bryan vs. John Cena (Universe creation)
Cutscenes:
-pre-match: Seth Rollins takes Cena's place in the match
Daniel Bryan vs. Seth Rollins
-mid-match: The Shield's music plays and it distracts Bryan/Ambrose interferes
-post-match: Layla celebrates with Rollins (Layla joins the Shield)

6. Week
Seth Rollins & Layla vs. Daniel Bryan & Natayla (my creation)
Cutscenes:
-pre-match: John Cena and Aksana attack Seth Rollins and Layla
Winners: Rollins & Layla

 

 

And even the most random looking thing made sense. Cutscenes happen more times than ever before. So if you're bored by the rivalry manager go back to the old way to create your things. It won't dissapoint you :)

It seems to me that if you book matches on your own and you don't use rivalry manager , more cut scenes appear, old and new. Interesting maybe I will try it soon. Isn't it annoying though that you have to setup all the matches?

 

How about if you do have rivalry manager turned on and you change the matches, will cut more scenes happen.

 

e.x

 

John Cena vs CM Punk [Rivalry Match] - I change the match to John Cena Vs The Rock , you think I will see new cut scenes if I keep changing matches for rivals?

If the allies and enemies are correct you will get as many cutscenes as you want.

 

I think a problem with the rivalries is the same problem we had in WWE'13, that the stories require a certain outcome of a match to progress. The cutscenes you get from editing the matches basically count as random cutscenes and won't appear in the news or the rivalry history (I guess).

 

I guess the answer to your question would be yes, but I'm not sure.

am i the only one who didnt encounter a glitch yet ?

 

Nope, haven't had a single glitch yet on my side. No frame rate drops, no freezing at all. Its the Canadian factor for us I guess. Nous sommes beaucoup trop bon pour les défauts

 

 

Must be the benefit of french canadians then. I'm regular old Ontario canadian and I suffer sound bugs out the wazoo.

 

My apologies that i cant join in on the french conversation. In the years since highschool i've forgotten all the french I had learned.
