What the fuck, we have the latest Demon Finn ? He appeared just last week, no way !!!

How do you know it's the latest? The sash?

[seanironmaiden]

The Model is a strange addition, but I did hear some rumours he'd be in this year. Was meant to be in last year, i heard?

it's his Summerslam 2017 attire

 

2Kayfabe did say that as long as it's not a new gimmick they try to get the most updated attire possible. doing attires isn't a huge thing vs an entire model.

i think that was just an assumption cause he showed up in the hashtag list for 2k17 on CC. buti'm glad he's in. i don't have to caw him for my 98 universe. only problem 
is if we don't get 97/98 booker back it's gonna suck cause that means i'll have to try to caw booker for that martel/saturn/booker tv title feud lol and they better not just give him the lion tamer for his finisher. he better have the quebec crab!

This game looks sexy as hell, hopefully replay editor lets us move the camera around this year, and also access it during entrances.

Free cam is confirmed for the game via the 2K dev summit months ago. So we're good to go there.

Completely shocked about TM61 seeing as they haven't been on TV for a year. Knowing our luck the game will release and they'll return with a completely new gimmick

How do you explain Jinder's model? He's the fucking champion and he's got outdated hair.

It's strange because Jinder had his longer hair since before WrestleMania. If he was scanned around that time then they've basically went out of their way to give him an outdated appearance. If they can update Bálor's entire demon paint attire from only a week ago then surely they can update Jinder's proper appearance that he's had since the start of the year.

I think Jinder becoming champion probably caught them off guard. I'd say they'd lock in the lower tier guys in earlier in the process of things than the big name stars knowing that outdated looks for those guys are going to cause less outrage than stuffing up a Roman Reigns or Seth Rollins (seeing as Seth's new look made 2k17)

How hard is it to change a hairstyle though? Doesn't seem too strenuous looking at the PC modding section, or is it tied to image rights etc? Just seems lazy.

Agreed. Perhaps it's something to do with the scanning process? To retain the realism?

Though they just stuck hair on Kurt Angle for his American hero model... again probably just a matter of prioritising. 

It'll be interesting to see Jinders entrance (not a statement I'd ever thought I'd utter) to see how updated that is

[Tornado_X]

Has anybody noticed that the default NXT trons play in every NXT entrance video except for the entrance video? (Excluding Roode's) Hope this gets fixed. Also it's weird that Bobby Roodes entrance video's thumbnail on the WWE2K Youtube channel shows his ring gear while you can't see it in the video, plus the Roadblock End Of The Line trons are in the background of the thumbnail. Weird

maybe because finn is on 2k's top list of priorities? actually i'm glad jinder got outdated hair i hate his current look anyway.

we go thru this every year. trons are the last things that get updated. the videos you are seeing were not made over night. they were probably made months ago.

actually it is hard that implies doing a completely new model from scratch. this has been stated many times.

i'm thinking they may have scanned him at mania 32 and used that model. they have said during the whole 4HW debacle that even though they scan people that doesn't necessarily mean that model makes the current game. i expect him to have the right hair by next game or it could be that the screenshots are so outdated that it's been updated but they didn't release more up to date shots. I remember in 2011 when orton got the beard look he still looked shaven but by game release he had the beard look

We get Rick Martel this year! That's awesome!  I'm pretty excited about the game. I really want an Xbox One X. But, all of best caw makers seem to be on the PS4 sadly.

I'm pretty sure this game wont be boosted by the One X.

[glennsoe]

Wonder if the Model has his spray With him, the arrogance spray...great gimmick....

So far I'm digging the look of the 205 guys...

I think the final 205 guys will be Jack Gallagher and Rich Swann. The rest would be DLC.

What about the Kendrick? He was heavily featured early on and was a former champ.

Shit I forgot... My bad  Ok Jack Gallagher, Rich Swann and Brian Kendrick are the final guys !!!

[TheBeast]

I guess no legends dlc this year but a ECW dlc is still possible

I think this year's future stars pack will include Jeff hardy,matt hardy,aliester black,drew mcyntire and no way jose

I know hardys are not future stars but if they can place Jbl in future stars pack(in wwe 2k15)  than why not hardys

I mean, if Cedric and Tozawa made it then I'd say there's a chance that Dar, Ali, Nese, Gulak and Daivari make it too. They were way more featured than Cedric! granted that's because he spent most of the year injured, but still.

I think you are right, the game wasn't on the list I saw for the X enhanced games. WWE 2K17 on the PS4 Pro looked, loaded, and played better the than the regular ps4 and Xbox one S. I was hoping since the One X was a better machine than the Pro it would look, load and play even better. One website did a test on the One X and concluded that non enhanced games still out performed the standard Xbox one.

Knowing 2K, we are gonna have 5 more CW at most (3 is my guess). The rest can be DLC or cannot make it at all, sadly.
