That's why I don't play online against anybody. They should make it so you can't make finishing moves a regular move.

Yep. Their whole move system is weird to me. You can assign some finishers as regular moves, but not others. And the ones you can't assign aren't categorized separately when you're choosing a finsher (just buried in the list of regular moves). It makes choosing a finsher much harder to me.

I also hate that damage stats aren't shown. I know it's based on your strength and skills, but it's absolutely trivial to factor that in and give the user a number associated with each move. Then you can have an idea of what the most damaging moves are.

Had match against Savage, i was bret hart. booker t distracted me and i received auto red damage. Made a come back with a long holding sharpshooter. We were going back n forth getting the submission boost :wow:

Universe is SO much better this year. No more tag partners having matches against each other or not tagging together at all.

Think its time I up the difficulty, some matches i still lose but its becoming a bit easy, damn near squashed bam bam with Sting.
I had to up the difficulty as well, I beat Alicia Fox with a fukking abdominal stretch and she wasn't even in the yellow yet:mjlol:

Best scenario that happened to me was a falls count anywhere match with Cena vs Orton. We were both on our last legs and Cena hit me with the FU, i kicked out at the last possible second and after he slammed the mat out of frustration he turned and i hit the RKO for a near fall. Then he went for the 5 knuckle shuffle and i kicked him in the head when he did the "you can't see me" taunt, we both went outside the ring and he reversed a chair shot into a final FU:mjcry: When i have a great match i can't get mad if i lose:yeshrug:

That's so fun when you are having a great match and even when you lose you can't even be mad. I was in career mode and I had a match with Lesnar. Dude straight dominated me in the match like he would in a real match. Was barely able to kick out when he would pin me. My manager Naomi would distract the ref, Lesnar, give me a chair but Lesnar wasn't having it. He ended up winning with a F5 that I couldn't kick out of. shyt was fun as hell!:myman:

They really nailed the feeling of an actual match with this game, i haven't had this much fun since SVR 06 & 07. I did have to lower the reversals for the ground grapples, because every time i went for a submission finisher they'd reverse it:pacspit:

What are the best Hardy Boyz caws for PS4? I saw a good Matt Hardy one from that era but I don't really like any of the Jeff ones since those are mostly more modern with the face paint and stuff.

Just switched up my Universe and went back to the brand split days. Just RAW and Smackdown. RAW has a lot of the primetime players and Smackdown has everyone else.

Decided against doing brand only PPVS and turned off auto rivalries.

Might turn it back on and do branded PPVs again though. Not sure which option would be more enjoyable.

they took out the type of rivalries that you can base feuds on :beli: a dumb decision. It'd give the cut scenes some direction rather than the same ones.

Next game they gotta bring those back or bring back create a story.

Anybody know when the Legends/Future Stars DLC is gonna drop? :to:
I'm guessing either next week or 2 weeks from now, the outstanding legends pack should be first but i bet we get the future stars pack next. Honestly outside of Samoa Joe i'm not really interested in that pack.

My complete inability to win a match unappreciation. I mean how many times will my opponent pull a cena and kick out of my finisher? And it looks like one that nobody should kick out of. Is there some settings I have to change to make my character stronger? Seems like I'm constantly losing to breeze and itami. :francis:


Apparently I had points to spend. Had everything set at 55. Let's see if this helps me win a match.

They're moving in the right direction with rivalries, i hate in the last one where anyone in a rivalry would always be in a match against each other. atleast here there's a little more variety, tho like you said, it'd be nice if there was a storyline behind it, which felt like it flowed naturally, rather than just someone coming down and sitting at ringside..
