Should we expect footage from Gamescom?

[the King Lives]

See, unless the type of standard evolves where there is consistent support and updates after release, it's barking at the wrong tree, but they have no reason to. Just going by their recent quarterly report, WWE 2K16 is nowhere near the top of the list as far as bread earner which means the types of features concerning seasonal updates on attires will be nonexistent because there is no incentive to justify such a release.

For fiscal first quarter 2017, GAAP net revenue for Take Two grew 13% to $311.6 million. But, the largest contributors to GAAP net revenue in fiscal first quarter 2017 were Grand Theft Auto V® and Grand Theft Auto Online, NBA® 2K16 and Battleborn®.

Fucking Battleborn, which was touted a commercial failure thanks to its poor timing and next to nothing advertising. Take-Two even admitted revealed that the game did not meet the firms's sales expectations. But, surely you'd think the WWE 2K series would have that type of mainstream appeal, but it lacks the robust sales figures that is generated by an NBA 2K16 which sold 4 million copies in just a week compared to WWE 2K16 that struggled maintaining its numbers not only due to surrounding other AAA franchises (Assassin's Creed, Halo, and Madden) releasing around the same timeframe, it pales in comparison to even stamping some form of indelible mark. 

i think i've said it enough time but the fact that 2k will promote the hell out of nba 2k and then turn around and hardly promote/market the wwe2k games is laughable.

This is extremely false this year, if you follow the 2K community, you would know they haven't gotten shit. About 5 screenshots, a National Anthem trailer...some MyGM info. Thats about it. They are basically struggling off some low quality 10 second gamescom clips. WWE 2K has shown gameplay, gotten core info about modes of the game, a ton of screenshots and more.

NBA 2K just has a waaay bigger fanbase.

well i was mostly talking about last year and 2k15. lol

i haven't followed nba2k this year at all. ever since they changed the controls i just haven't been that much interested in the franchise. same with madden and getting pretty much the same game since like madden 10

The only things left that I need are Austin Aries and The Club. The rest can go however it likes. It would make NO SENSE if they couldn't make it in !!! Aries debuted BEFORE Nakamura !!!

[ichiban Rooster]

i can see why the club isnt in, but Aries idk maybe a dlc..

[ItzTheRampage]

He has a bunch but not everything. Most of his stuff looks really good. Brainbuster, spiral tap, armlock suplex, pele kick, popup clash

sorry i don't know who you are. you refuse to acknowledge who you are. so i'll take rampage's word over your's especially since he went to the event. i'll just wait for official confirmation.

Well Styles had a New Outside Dive Phenomenal Forearm(Slingshot version), aswell as his Stylin DDT which he had as a springboard move and as second rope standing dive. He had the Spiral Tap and a 450 Splash as top Rope Moves.

His Signature and finishers:

Inside:

Sig1: Fire Mans Carry Neckbreaker

Sig2: Calf Crusher

Finisher 1: Styles Clash (The 2K16 Animation without a pin with an added pin function)

Finisher 2:Phenomenal Forearm

Outside:

Sig1: Fire Mans Carry Neckbreaker

Sig2: Brainbuster 2

Finisher 1: Pop Up Styles Clash( Imagine A Pop Up Powerbomb, but styles catches the legs and does the styles clash.

Finisher 2: normal Styles Clash.

If I may break the tension here, may I point out the new pause screen? Looks like with the options and show logo in the middle, to the left and right looks to be in game renders of AJ and Seth. I actually really like that touch.

Yeah they added the Renders To Both sites and the normal HUD, so that we can see how much damage they have taken, how near we are to a finisher etc.But the Main Menu looks bland as fuck

Does the pin combo of the Styles Clash look good?

And can you explain a little bit more about the Phenomenal Forearm FN? Is it a corner FN or some kind of new springboard FN?

[Brick]

springboard finish from the apron. it's the old forearm but he has a new, much better looking forearm to outside the ring though it's not a finisher.

pin combo looks about how you'd expect

[ItzTheRampage]

the pin combo looks good, but the ref reacts very slowly :/. All in all im not impressed, but also not dissapointed

[PH_Guy]

@ItzTheRampage any new moves from the other three superstars? What about the entrances, does Styles' looks good and the other have new ones?

[EXecutionerX85]

was you able to see the highlight reel at all? Thank you for the info !

awesome. i mean 2k16 pretty much was solid game wise. it was the issues in universe my career and creation studio that were the main problems. so if they were able to touch up on that. that's cool.

If I wait for them to stand up, I will hit them with a springboard dropkick -.- If I wait longer, like u said they are gonna run at me.

[Brick]

It works. Wake up from the apron my friend 

[Gift Of Jericho]

Oh and one more thing, I wish they would do something about countering Lifting FN. That shit is scary -.-

No I mean the OMG FN that they throw you up in the air and catch you. If you didn't counter the Irish Whip before that, you're fucked.

yeah i hate that. i wish they never added those type of catch finishers. the ones from the top rope are fine but i hate it when they waste a finisher just to irish whip you to the ropes to do that

[ItzTheRampage]

the Recording stuff was not availible to me. And seth had his Superplex/Falcon arrow combo.

 

And wakeup taunts now with the dpad up every time. I could do them when i wanted

[glennsoe]

Thank for the info Sir...

Don't hold anything back...;)

so no more "cena" pose before doing a finisher? awesome! lol

[ItzTheRampage]

i don´t know i think cena has his shitting pose when he has a stored finisher

[Brick]

wake up taunts from more positions like apron, corner, top rope, middle rope. they can be customized

cena shitting his is his charged finisher anyways, which is actually different

well i mean in 2k16 everyone was doing it except for few people that had moves like the zig zag, tombstone, chokeslam and of course big show's wmd but everyone from jericho to KO etc had that same thing. so does this mean charged finishers are finally gone? cause i really hated them.

[Brick]

no they're still in the game. but you can just perform a wake up separately and get the motion you want
