Thought i'd do a thread here and not the game lounge since I like it here in this board. Any of you guys have it for next gen? I'm liking it and havent played a wrestling game in years so i'm not having any issues w it.

The mycareer is super cool now and didnt realize it took so long to create a character. So far only in NXT and its challenging playing w a guy whos stamina drops so fast and takes so long to build a signature and finisher

My only gripes is that you cant have divas wrestle the dudes it seems and also the controls are a bit weird to pick up for diff grapple moves.

I have it for PS4, like it alot. I'm in year 2 of mycareer and currently feuding w/ the Shield on Smackdown. I love the stamina and momentum system and the fact that you have to earn points to upgrade your guy/buy abilities. My only complaint is that you can't (or I haven't figured out how to yet) use custom entrance music and the lack of entrance motions.

I love WWE's games.

Yeah, I had problems with the grapple system at first as well. For me it helped to slow down how fast I was pushing the buttons.

I was going to ask how was the game. I debating myself to get this game worth buying or not sometime in the holidays.

To me, it's the best gameplay since Wrestlemania 2000/WWF No Mercy.

The game is worth it. I came from not owning a wrestling game probably since No Mercy on N64 and played Smackdown Here Comes the Pain at my friend's place a lot, and coming back to it it just feels good. Heavy grapples are tough to hit on the computer because it seems like reversing is easy but then I don't even know what i'm doing half the time and just trying to survive instead of chain together cool moves.

The career mode again is fun so far especially trying to build your character up and just messing around w possible intros. The advanced intro scheme is hardcore and just don't have the patience for that right now.

I think what some people were bummed about was that they took away some types of matches but since I never experienced them, I can't miss them. The divas look kind of cartoonish in the face which is a bit weird when you see how well the guys look. Looking to try to be good at this game and try to tear it up online but i'm being realistic

I'm not playing until I finally get a PS4, which could still be a few months away.

Aside from the game, the commercial for the game is HILARIOUS!!! It's waaaaaaaay too serious. It does make me laugh though. My fiance and I randomly say or text "Rage..." to each other and that's fun.

Big step in the right direction overall from what I've played so far but they took A LOT of stuff out. Entrance animations, modes, moves, etc. I hate when companies take stuff out and end up adding it back in for the next year release and labeling it as "new" (which I'm 80% sure will be the case for WWE 2k16)

I was bummed about the entrances too but after playing it for a week, I skip entrances already. I can see why they gave it up. As far as moves go, I don't think there's any shortage. They'll probably patch in a new move set in a month or two just like they did with the last few releases.

I'm mad they took out that tigerbomb (the one thats kinda like a piledriver) out. That has been my CAW's finisher for yrs, going all the way back to WWE Smackdown vs Raw. They better bring it back!

Try the Implant Buster or the Package Piledriver.

I feel if you master the reversing it can put you on another level because the mechanic is just a simple one button. Played online w a guy who reversed everything I did. I liked in other games where it was one button to reverse grapples and another to reverse strikes.

The game doesn't do a great job of telling you how to do something like slam someone through a table

Yeah, the reverse system is kind of over powered.

ETA - Don't know if you wanted to know about the table but you can whip them into the table then grapple when they're leaning against it to put them on the table, or you can use a Directional Throw move to slam them through it. Announcers table you throw them into the table while you have a Finisher then press the finisher button once the screen tells you to. If you're using a create-a-character, you have to make sure he has the OMG Moment ability that allows you to slam through tables.

I'm in year 5 of MyCaeer and won the WWE Title from Lesnar. After I won the title, the game went to credits and a little note appeared on the screen saying that "After a 15yr career, I reached heights of stars like The Rock, Steve Austin and John Cena." Apparently once you win the main title, you get one last match with an opponent of your choice (they give you a short list of choices). That is really dumb to me, I haven't even had the chance to fight for any other belt, compete in a Royal Rumble or be in a WrestleMania.

Bought the season pass today for PS4 which apparently means nothing. System says its downloaded and installed but nothing is different and I don't have Paige.

I haven't heard anything about any new DLC yet so I think when it launches she will be available.

I don't think Paige is available yet. Shes supposed to be here before the end of the year and the rumor is that there will be a DLC every month for the first few months of 2015 including an NXT patch, new move-sets, WCW patch, new/current attires, new stories in the showcase mode and a few others that I can't remember.
