the King Lives Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 Source: http://forums.2k.com/showthread.php?3276321-The-Voretex-Community-Manager-Comments The Voretex: Community Manager CommentsA few of us have suggested an idea where the feedback from our Community Manager, Bryan "Don't Google his surname, seriously!" Vore, is put together in one FAQ-like thread so that everyone can have quick access to points that are made without having to search for it. So here it is!I'll use quotes for them so if anyone wants to get to that particular post within the thread, they can click the blue arrow icon that's next to the name. Here's what we've had so far, any new comments will get new posts.On XBone pre-orders... Originally Posted by Vore2K There will be a digital pre-order for Xbox One. I wish I could provide an exact date when it will go live, but for now all I can say is soon.Other members have stated that pre-orders on the XBone only go up when the game can be pre-downloaded straight away.Being scanned is just the start... Originally Posted by Vore2K Hey all,I chatted with Visual Concept's Mark Little about scanning and roster inclusion to clear things up about how it's all done. Interesting read!"When we travel to do scanning sessions we scan everyone that we can get into our scan booth. WWE Superstars and Divas are very busy so we take every opportunity to scan them regardless of whether or not we are using the scans for the upcoming game. We want to have as many scanned as possible because the scan is the starting point for us adding someone to the game.It is true that it only takes around 5-10 minutes to scan the SS and Divas but that is step 1 in a long process. After they are scanned it takes our team about 2 months to complete modeling work from start to finish. The kicker is that the model is only part of the work required to add a SS or Diva into the game. Entrances, moves, taunts, attire, entrance attire, music and roster images all need to get developed. In addition, we need to record commentary for each SS and Diva which is a large undertaking all on its own. So, as you can see, scanning a SS or Diva is the least amount of work involved in getting someone into the game.Ohh and by the way, we have almost filled the double layered Blu-Ray media. We have been working very very hard. "On Breakouts in Player vs CPU... Originally Posted by Vore2K Hey all,We noticed some confusion on this topic so we reached out to Operation Sports to clarify. Link and new text is below. Hope it clears things up!http://www.operationsports.com/featu...n-impressions/"UPDATE: (9-8-15) We have just received official word from 2K and wanted to update the last couple of sentences (from above).In Exhibition breakouts are allowed in Player vs Player and Player vs AI matches. At this point we do not have the AI performing breakouts during Player vs AI matches but it is something we are looking at for the future."On the GameStop Italy "ad"... Originally Posted by Vore2K This is fake. Any characters listed are just someone's random guesses.On alternate attires... Originally Posted by Vore2K I'm trying to get some info on some of the alternate versions of announced characters (Masked Kane and 2015 Mark Henry, for example). I'll let you know if I hear anything! Originally Posted by Vore2K There are many unannounced alternate versions of characters. Hope to drill into the specifics soon!On when DLC info will come out... Originally Posted by Vore2K Using last year's DLC announce timing is probably a good call. We've still got plenty of base game content to go over.Previous years suggest 1-2 weeks before release day, it's normally the last thing.On "inaccurate" attires... Originally Posted by Vore2K Hey everyone. Thanks for starting this thread. When you notice something about the game that you'd like tweaked we're glad to hear it. I checked with Mark Little on the subject and hope this offers some clarification."We submit the models looking as close to real life as possible to the WWE for approval. We are obligated to follow feedback/requests for changes from the WWE. The shorts are one thing that we are consistently asked to adjust. We continue to strive to deliver the most authentic experience possible and continue to work with the WWE to make that a reality for the fans. We make sure the WWE hears your feedback as well where it can help. Please remember to be respectful in these forums. It is hard to show the WWE threads on our forums from the fans if they devolve into name calling and personal attacks. Respectful and well thought out critiques are much more effective and impactful."On removing masks... Originally Posted by Vore2K Good question! Here's what I got from Mark Little:"The WWE has strict rules around how we represent the past and present WWE SS/Diva in the game. For SS and Divas that wear masks we are not allowed to remove them in game. This follows the long standing tradition that if you remove a luchador's mask, that is the end of that persona. Of course like all things WWE there are some special cases like Kane and Mankind who we are allowed to show without masks as well. For masked SS like Fernando, Diego, Kalisto or Sin Cara; we uphold the tradition, the mask cannot be removed."On changing facepaint... Originally Posted by Vore2K Not sure on the facepaint question. I'll see what I can find out.On Cody Rhodes (not as Stardust) being in the game... Originally Posted by Vore2K From Mr. Mark Little:"We requested to have Cody Rhodes in WWE 2K16 but it was not approved by the WWE. Much like the masked wrestlers, the WWE doesn’t like to mix personas of active roster Superstars and Divas. If the alternate persona is from long enough ago then we are sometimes allowed to include the alternate persona, but with recent history that is generally not allowed."On Community Creations of the "unmentionables" in wrestling (eg: Benoit/Hogan)... Originally Posted by Vore2K We're still determining the official standards for creation. I'll be sure to post the complete guidelines in the forums before launch.On AJ Lee not being in the game... Originally Posted by Vore2K Originally Posted by CapnCrunch She's not with the company anymore and thus wasn't approved for inclusion. This isn't a big mystery.^^^^^^^^^^On non-Horsewoman Divas (eg: Lita/Trish) as DLC... Originally Posted by Vore2K We're not talking DLC yet beyond the announcement. However, today's story only ruled out the Horsewomen. Take that as you will. Quote
Fozy Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 I still find it funny that they talk big game with their models and they're all still pretty shit. Considering the nba games, you'd think they'd be at least close to that level of detail. Quote
Stoned Out 203 Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 Well I guess they are more basketball fans then wrestling fans over at 2k Quote
Righteous Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 I wouldn't use NBA2k models as a reference point. They are plenty of inaccurate and outdated players in the game, every year. 1 Quote
Fozy Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 WWE 2k15 had 114 models. 11 unplayable.16 duplicates. 87 overall.NBA 2k15 had 424 unique models. 1 Quote
seanironmaiden Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 NBA games have fück-all work involved, attire-wise. It's basically just copy and paste for entire teams with very little variation in the jersey models between the different teams. Basically just switching the textures. Maybe I'm wrong, I don't follow those games Quote

Sunny Posted September 21, 2015 Posted September 21, 2015 It'll be interesting to see if they even updated Vince's model and realized their faults. Recycling last year's material from WWE 2K16 Beta seems to be a key theme. Quote

Codes.

Recycling last year's material from WWE 2K16 Beta seems to be a key theme.I think team size and licensing has a lot to do with it. In NBA games they have a much easier time getting rights to use people within the game. In WWE Games they have to agree on a contractual agreement with whoever isn't signed by WWE. Quote
