DLC Discussion Thread

I think you guys went the right route with it. It's basically the same thing that you guys did with Sliced Bread No. 2. It's better off as a corner move.

I dunno though, you have moves like Old School and former games like the Oklahoma Stampede that just auto track to the nearest turnbuckle. Those would be easier to pull off than the Superman and Spear though cause there's so much more motion involved

Not true. Superman and spear have two people moving independently. Now start mentally mapping what it would take when to have both characters move to the ropes and / or center of the ring after the Superman punch. Its very complex and adds a ton of work for a single move. Scripted moves such as this require an engineer and days of effort. This would definitely be on the higher end - maybe a week or more. The corner version just needs an animator and a gameplay designer and can be setup and working in a couple

Hours.

okay, maybe I'm tired because I thought you just agreed with me, XD. The Superman Punch and Spear would be harder to do from standing since, like you said, you have the independent movement of the characters because of all the scripted song and dance. But say, a Sliced Bread or Dudley Dog from standing grapple would be far easier than Reign's move could ever be from that position

 

Oh, the "I dunno though" was in reference to the Sliced Bread, not the Punch and Spear. My fault. I know that move was a nightmare to pull off so I agree with the corner activation being a good call. And it is beautifully captured so well done on that

So Brandon, basically 2k pulled a M. Bison with Grand Champion Bautista ?

I wanted him to feel like a boss type character which is why he has the exaggerate punches. I also liked the idea that he could just throw guys around with ease which was the inspiration behind the chokeslam toss

21 needs to have all the DLC from 20 in-game to begin with. The attire parts, moves, arenas, ect..

[eastcoastkody]

if u wanna see something crazy.

 

do Grand Champion Batistas Pumphandle Vertical Suplex Powerbomb finisher....from a Carry

 

halfway thru it almost turns into an Argetine Backbreaker Carry position???

[Jeb ★]

Is the Powerbomb/Samoan Drop Combo selectable in carry position?

[ShinGojira89]

Huh? Grand Champion Batista was easy for me. I just spammed slegehammer attacks and hit him with a Superman punch for the KO. I beat him in like a min.

[Jeb ★]

That's the key with no DQ tower matches in general

[Rekka_No_Ryo]

There needs to be an attack where you hit your opponent with a large can of Spam. Call it The Spam Hammer or something. So you could spam an attack of you actually attacking your opponent with Spam.

Just been looking at the leaked list of DLC characters, after Arctic Roman Reigns, there's New Year's Ricochet, Warrior Ruby Riott and Raider Velveteen Dream. So we should be getting 3 new towers and maybe new moves for those characters, anyone think what moves they could be?

There is already a Ricochet tower.

Ruby is part of the Rhea Ripley one

And The Dream is also part of one. I think the Pete Dunne one, but I'm not sure.

I like the precedent of getting new hairstyle caw parts as DLC. I think The Fiend's hair came for male caws in Bump In The Night pack didn't it? There's a Becky Lynch hairstyle for women that I don't remember seeing at launch. In any event there's a long pigtail hair that's locked behind Road To Glory mode that illustrates my point.

 

More hairs as caw part dlc = great.

Locking behind grind progress = bad.

 

Seriously 2k, just unlock things from the beginning. We bought the accelerator, and don't want to play towers/dlc stories. Create Modes are the life blood of your games.

[LEGION]

Just make the RTG awards available for everyone a month later

These ladder matches in Roman's Wasteland warrior tower are rediculous. First of all the 2nd March against Jeff is in super speed. I can get him to red health but he'll reverse an Irish whip, sprint up the ladder and pull it down, making me waste 15 mins of my life waiting for the match to decide I've earnt a 5 star rating etc. And all that besides the clunky ladder controls. Remember when one button picked up the ladder and opened it up, and climbed it/reached for the briefcase? Simple times.

Just cheese it, man. I beat like 6 out of the 8 matches in under 3 minutes by doing what the AI does. Lol.

Another tip, don't have a ladder in the ring when you have no interest in climbing for the prize yourself.

[glennsoe]

Think I got through each match in Romans tower in under 2 mins just by getting a ladder from the side of the Ring,climbing up and waiting for the opponent to climb up.

 

When both are at the top either punch or graple him until you've thrown him of the ladder.

 

When you thrown the opponent from the ladder to the ring, reach up and start the minigame to get the ladder.

 

Should take you about 3-4 tries before getting the win.

[NiceTwice]

Im playing through the dlc stuff to unlock it but I really dislike the gameplay and how far away from pro wrestling it gets. I Would be happy if they do keep all this goofy looking shit for next years creation modes like create and arena.

They usually do

[Rekka_No_Ryo]

I have not actually played a wwe game in awhile as I mostly do it for the sim aka comp vs comp, however using what the comp did, I spam the shit out of moves and have beaten most of these towers easy using such methods. All hail doing unto the computer before it does unto you..

Basically, I just wait for AI to do the whole thing - setup, climb the ladder and fill-up the bar until the last one. Hit him down and hammer throw him out of the ring. Then I just climb and complete the last bar. Easy!

[LEGION]

Did you guys change the difficulty? Because on easy mode the AI rarely ever even got a move in. The Battle Royal tower was the only difficult one to me, because I eliminated people by accident, without getting the right amount of stars

[The Nerd]

Hey guys where is the Story Tower: Hounds of Winter Justice located? A silly question but I cant find it. It shows me a reward for it but I cant find it.

You have to beat Roman's first tower to unlock it.

[ShutdiscAU]

Is new year ricochet getting his own tower and if so I hope we get a new running or standing shooting star press (with pin) with it. Been waiting for a new standing SSP forever.
