Exclusive SvR 08 Demo Freeze Wrestler Code!

[jitz]

Ok, so I was playing the demo and froze my character good and proper. This effectively fucks up the match because your frozen and the opponent apparently can't attack you, so you're screwed and have to restart the match. Thing is - I can make it happen 100% of the time. I can give you exact instructions on how to fuck up your game, THQ and Yukes are pathetic. It's just a normal game play move aswell, nothing fancy.

Instructions -

1. Grab either the sledgehammer or the barbed wired 2 x 4 and bring it into the ring.

2. Irish whip your opponent into the corner.

3. Hold left and attack to kick him and make the opponent sit

4. Grab the sledgehammer or 2 x 4

5. Run and attack

Frozen.

Opponent has to be sitting, and it doesn't work with the chair (it does the RVD running chair dropkick).

I did it with Randy Orton, but it should work for everyone. Expect this exclusive code to make into into the final game. Enjoy!

EDIT - If you must spread this exclusive code, be sure to give me credit.

Why have you been playing the demo enough to of found this ? All you've done is pick fault with the game...

I'm sure you're not the only person to of found this, and it's more than likely to be brought to their attention before the game is released. Though it's still bullshit that it even exists, but games will always have a few bugs, which is why most release betas/demos for feedback and testing purposes.

Simple solution though - if it's in the final game - don't do it. If it gets abused on XBL, they will patch it.

I found it on my third match, I was just playing a normal game and found it.

I didn't do anything strange, I wasn't looking for faults. Infact, I even looked hard and found a few improvements in this year. The dives to the outside work a lot better. Weapons on the whole (excluding the game breaking glitch I found) work a lot better. I think this year you might even be able to do an aerial move off the ladder and be confident it will connect!

So no, it's not all doom and gloom. I just happen to think that the game still plays exactly the same as last year (bar the constant breaks needed to refill the stamina gauge that was in last year's), and that i have found a game breaking glitch on my third match by doing a normal game play move. A move that is actually encouraged with a chair (which prompted me to try it with another weapon to see what happens).

[Fozy]

have you got the (M) code?

[jitz]

Sure do

- Start any match

Nice find.Do the weapons really work/play better in this year?

[jitz]

Well keeping in mind that the only wrestlers that can do weapon grapples this year a hardcore wrestlers which there aren't any in the demo, weapon attacks work better for sure. The chair shot animation is very clean and connects well, the movements have also been sped up, so you really have to beware of the guy holding the chair - which is the way it should be. Also one hit from a weapon drops the opponent to the ground, even if it doesn't trigger the hitting the head animation (say you hit from behind). So yeah, weapons are to be feared this year.

[Chillalex]

probably just forgot to include that animation file in the demo

[jitz]

In past years they've simply used the opponent on ground attack, stopping your run dead in your tracks. Maybe Yukes has a new animation, maybe it wasn't ready in time, maybe it really is just a glitch. The most important thing is - I found it, hooray for me.

I'm in photoshop right now, making you an achievement badge.

I've been floating around youtube checking out the demo '08 vids guys have been making about the game. Now generally people are focusing on how THQ have taken established features and given them to only a handful of wrestlers through the wrestling styles system.

What I found more interesting though was the videos that showed previous promotion vids that features moves that aren't possible in the demo. Stuff like Randy Orton doing a con-chair-to, can't be done in the demo. Rey Mysterio has been shown doing 4 or 5 different spring board moves, but in the demo he only has two - one opponent standing and opponent down.

The demo seems to be really old and missing a lot of features. Then again, all these features could go the way of the triple ladder match shown 4 years ago, and the CAW password system.
