No Shark cage match ? Unplayable. #BoycottThisShit

WHAT THE BLUE HELL IS A SHARK CAGE MATCH?

I just wanted a "Throw THe Giant off the top of the cage into the halloween havoc Monster truck" option LOL

 

but in all seriousness this is real good news for the gaming community. we can finally set finishers again, time limit matches. i hope that can be set for titles. setting health seems awesome too it's almost like you can do your own MITB cashin off that rule. i wonder if it'll work how it was in story designer where you could set what bodypart had the handicap. that'd be cool.

 

if you want to see the full video just go to smacktalks' channel it's the last video he did that talks about OMG's Skills and Match creator

honestly mp3 import definitely isn't an issue for PS4 that i do know. it seems like it's more of an xbox 1 issue than anything else. hell they don't even let you copy saves to usb on x1 as far as i've heard

Accessing/playing media (including .mp3 files) from USB media isn't an issue on Xbox One either (Xbox One actually had the feature a bit before PS4 did), it could be done with relative ease if the developers truly wanted to.

Not sure about copying saves since I've never tried that, since they are stored in the cloud anyhow.

i'll put it another way.

the sony sharefactory video editing program allows import of mp3, images, and video up to a certain limit directly into the app. once it's imported you don't even have to keep the flash drive inserted. just like with MLB the Show's mp3 importer. When exactly did X1 get the feature cause i'm pretty sure PS4 got it initially in february of 2015 which was the earliest i was able to do usb import. maybe the media player thing x1 got first but i was able to import music into sharefactory all the way back from the day that 2k15 released which was around november 2014.

 

i have a friend on x1 that said that you can't copy saves to usb that that was basically microsoft's answer to prevent save modding like you could on 360 but i don't own an x1 so idk lol

not new

[C-Squared]

Yeah, not new at all. Came out during the Week 2 Roster Reveal.

[bluemonkeymagic]

Just hoping for 3 and 4 way elimination matches again via the match editor.

I miss 3 way tag matches but I know we'll not be getting those this year, so I'm not even going to bother wishing!!

i think it's safe to say everything in that list that i posted would be for every type of matchtype

Smacktalks just listed everything under 1v1 cause that's what he saw playing 1v1 but since elimination is on that list it's safe to say we will have access to triplethreat, fatal four way, 6 man elimination, as well as 8 man elimination tags

 

i just hope we can atleast have 4 on 3 or 5 on 2 or 7 on 1 type handicap matches. i think that'd be fun.

 

didn't they say that EC, HIAC and MITB would be with an 8 man option?

[Tornado_X]

how would an 8 man elimination chamber work? 4 start and 4 in pods?

haven't they had 8 men EC matches before? you'd have 6 pods and 2 starting

[Tornado_X]

no, where would the other 2 pods go 😂 it's always been either 6 people or 6 teams

i was probably thinking about mitb lol

[Tornado_X]

I wonder if we'd get a 7 Man Ladder match like at Wrestlemania 32

[WallsOfJericurl]

I need triple threat tornado tag ladder match like the good old days

[Dann]

2 out of 3 falls for tag and single matches please

i know you can do 2 out of 3 for single matches so i would expect it for tag matches as well

Not sure if Im correct but did they announce a revamped Royal Rumble ? Or I'm just drunk ?

Yes they did. 8 superstars in the ring of course but new AI related stuff as in superstars who are in a team will team up on everyone and I believe new eliminations and new ways to eliminate people from what I remember from details from the 2K dev summit and smacktalks video of him trying it out.

team members working together is long overdue. This sounds great.

That would be great. Maybe even fatal four way, since there is 8 wrestler support now. That said, I'd already be happy if we at least get to play regular two on two Tornado Tag Team Ladder or TLC Matches as well as Tornado Tag Team Table Elimination Matches.

Whether it works as promised is another story thought lol

Roster Reveal today.

Has there been any chat on the top 4/5 UK Tournament folk?

I would hope to at least get Dunne & Bate. If we got the arena it would be wild, but I'm not holding my breath for any interesting arenas.

[DrJoeyMagnum]

I think SmackTalks released a video saying that the UK guys were scanned

Heard rumors of them being scanned however my money is on them being dlc if they do make it

[Gift Of Jericho]

There might be no HoF DLC pack this year (it has been noted there will be no showcases in any form) , so I think the UK guys will definitely take its place.
