First impressions thread...

[bluemonkeymagic]

So, I've had about 5 matches now and I have to say they've delivered on gameplay!

The matches are well paced and the limited reversals really add to the match quality.

Graphics are great and the overall presentation is much better but OMG Bradshaw's commentary is just terrible.

I was pleasantly surprised to see Y2J 01 in the game, I didn't see him confirmed before. 

Is it perfect? Certainly not. There are plenty of glitches and, as we all know, certain features are missing.

It's way better than 2K15! 

How are you finding the game so far?

EDIT - further thoughts...

The booking in Universe mode is still repetitive and random. For four shows running, I had the cpu book nothing but face vs face and heel vs heel matches. Randomly, the main event of my nitro episode featured Randy Orton and Batista who are exclusively on Smackdown!

With that being said, the way you set up Universe is massively improved and is more easier now...I just hope they patch in title matches!

The difficulty is an odd one, after 3 hours on normal I felt it was getting too easy, so I bumped it up to hard...problem is, hard feels even easier than normal! I beat Ric Flair with Randy Savage without even obtaining any damage!

I have seen plenty of bugs this morning already, from disappearing wrestlers, wrestlers freezing mid match and missing audio.

Overall, I have had more fun in a morning with 2k16 than I did with 12 months of 2k15, so its def improved; I just hate the way the game gets released with so many bugs!

I think this will score 7/10 when sites start to review it. Good but still room for improvement!

A little annoyed that almost all the deal breaking issues from CAW mode in 2K15 are still present.

Is texture recoloring really deal breaking ..logos blurring is unless I am missing something. Please explain fufu and can the re coloring be fixed like last year

It can be fixed yes, but it shouldn't have to be. You do the same thing as last year where you add and then remove another logo to get it back to its original colour.

My main issue is the logo blur, which really is deal breaking for anyone with a fairly complicated, and even some basic attires. Another thing that's pissed me off is that there are still no masks that cover both eyes and mouth (outside the Sin Cara mask - which is unusable anyway). There really is little point have these import tools when the system is so flawed.

I'll pin this so people can add their personal input. This really is some useful information that can help others who might be on the fence of whether to pick this up because of the disaster that was last year's game.

[BHANGRA MAN]

Well if the recoloring can be fixed its not an issue for me as the morphing is back so will have fun

Fufu whats better photo upload or regular texture PT upload?

[bluemonkeymagic]

Another thing I hated about 2k15 was how bad some of the wrestlers looked, especially the legends but everyone looks amazing this year. 

Ps. Champions come out 2nd even if you select them first 

 

[EndlessParadox]

So, are custom entrance themes in this year?

[Cave Waverider]

So is a Tag Team Ladder or TLC Match available in exhibition for title matches?

Hard to judge at the moment since both have their quirks. The photo import as temperamental, but it just needs some adjusting to. Both are still possible.

what about movement of the logo/texture once applied does that happen on this one?

no, just standard 2 on 2, extreme rules, cage, elimination, tornado and hell in a cell.

I've not noticed it. That one seems to have been resolved.

Fufu last qs please confirm in final build once you done face upload you can still do face de formation 

Lastly you can delete PT'S from server right?

Sorry for the q's but need to know

[Brianthespaz86]

The accelerator is already there, go into unlockables and click x to unlock all.

The rest of the DLC is timed.

Yes, you can do face deformation before or after the face upload, and there are plenty of options.

As far as I can tell, if you upload a texture, you get to choose whether you want to upload to Community Creations for everyone to use, or you can keep it just so you can use it.

 

And ask as many questions as you want, I don't mind.

[Adm King]

So, are custom entrance themes in this year?

Only on last gen

Also, just found out that you need to set up a show before you can use downloaded arenas in exhibition mode 

[Brianthespaz86]

the accelerator don't seem to be showing up even though I repeatedly installed/d-loaded it. Any Ideas on what to do?

[motishow]

tested the game and i like it, and we can add custom music for the entrances of added/imported wrestlers from previous games!!!!!!!!

Hope we can import the entrance of wwe2k15 Hogan

The logic for this escapes my mind completely. Shouldn't it rather be the other way around?

Yessssss!!!! i am on 360  and there is  custom music for the entrances, that's the first thing i have tested , because that's the thing i wanted to start importing all wrestlers from previous games into wwe2k16.

It also has decent Team announcements: Rhythm & Blues, Road Warriors, Bulldogs etc.etc. Still no Fink, but at least they've got decent team names.
