THQ said they upgraded/ changed the blood, to be more free flowing. How is it?

The game-generated storylines are certainly wonky. It kept wanting me to play Santino vs. Kevin Nash and when I finally did, Kozlov ran out early on, turned on Santino, and Nash won instantly. This despite the fact that Kozlov is a free agent. Similarly, they keep wanting me to play the Road Warriors vs. Kofi Kingston and Michael McGillicutty for some reason even though the Road Warriors aren't currently being used. It's obvious there are just some pre-set stories going on irregardless of brand. It's not a big deal because I prefer to pick my own matches anyway rather than be at the mercy of Match Flow. |

Oh yeah, and that random celebration thing happened with me too. Awesome Truth from Raw came out to celebrate with Mark Henry from SmackDown after his successful title defense at the Rumble against Orton. Seems like they just have a random heel team come out to celebrate. Definitely a bug, but nothing that can't be ignored.
I've only done one actual match in RTWM, and I struggled my way through it before winning in a bit of a fluke. I jobbed twice in the next one before heading back to Universe. Game is way harder this year, which I enjoy. |

As do I. I'm having a blast getting my ass handed to me from the submissions which has taken a couple hours to get used to but I should be fine now.

Can't help but feel like they've fucked up the Rumble to a degree. While the ability to break up eliminations was a nice touch...the CPU just totally overdoes it. They break up eliminations far more often than they actually double team, which means the Rumble gets to be extremely tedious. If you don't have an even amount of people in the ring, the "odd man out" will always fuck up eliminations. If Rumble finishers hadn't seemingly been removed, this wouldn't be as big of a deal.
A lot of people had requested longer Rumbles...guess this was their solution to that. |

Rumble finishers are there, both leaning against the ropes and apron versions.

Yeah, finally saw a couple. They just happen far less frequently it seems. Dolph Ziggler finally loses the US Title to Zack Ryder in the opening match at the Rumble...but then goes on to win the Rumble match itself. Moving on to bigger and better things.

Nice, all I've done in Universe so far was the first Raw and Superstars. Riley beats JR in a match on superstars then beats the hell of of Cole for assulting JR after it.

MITB is the same as last year, cash in and there's no initial match. Only difference is that the current champion is battered and the guy cashing it in has a sig at the start.

This is becoming too much...
It was Christian Vs. Nash for the WCW title, cashed in with my CAW, hit my sig and finisher and was seen celebrating with the WHC. Bit weird. Then I go back to the menus and see Christian is still WCW champ and I'm WHC, an inactive title. Fucking hell. |

One thing I hate about universe mode, is the inactive titles not being allowed to be removed from the superstars themselves. Also can't find out how to change the WWE Championship to the Undisputed Championship, if it's even possible.

Go to the schedule, pick a show and press x or square to edit it depending on what format you're on and you can change belts.

Oh and as for inactive belts, shove them on someone inactive. All mine are on a CAW called vacant.

Thanks Hastney. Now to re-burn Nash/Truths themes as for some reason when my brother burnt them yesterday it didn't take when we popped the disk in the 360.

2nd show in February and finally the first injury. ADR finally ended his losing streak via absolute massacre on John Morrison. Got the whole "career ending injury?" message. I do hope that all injuries eventually go away, since if I want to change match participants I can't use him if it's back.
If it actually IS a career ender...well, then all games are going to be unplayable after a few years of Universe when too many people are out forever. |

I got that too after Raws main event, Big Show got taken out on a stretcher from my brothers caw which was his mystery opponent. I would think that they eventually go away or else it be stupid to have a mode that permanently injures the game characters to the point they are unusable in Universe mode.

Shit. Maybe it's a year or something that they're out for? I mean...permanently taking somebody out of the mode would be ridiculous. Imagine if your CAW or something got taken out?

Nice, I didn't want to wait so I made them myself w/ their theme but using Kofi's Tron since theirs isn't in.
I don't think we can since it's random. |

Someone try something for me.
With Lesnar, get a signature and do the one with no directions, the belly to belly. Everytime I hit it, I get a second one as well as the finisher... |

Yeah, injuries are totally random. Unless 30 belly to bellies with 29 F5's and a lot to the steps and being elbow dropped through the announce table doesn't hurt too bad. And a shooting star press for good measure.

My brother let me take his 360 out of his room to bring to mine, it took me 20m to get the AV/Component cable to display in 1080i since for some reason 1080p didn't work when my TV is a 1080p. So I switched out that cable for the HD cable I use for my PS3 and BOOM, auto 1080p . Now to actually rip the cd then play, I burnt Billy Gunn's Ass Man and I've Got It All both with arena effects, just need to decide which one to use.

Me and my guys are having great matches with this. And you know me and anything where I can create shit - so many options. Give me lots of time before I make something to show. But for now it's gonna be making two CAW promotions completely void of real wrestlers. Lots of time!
Don't care for RtM and such. We're a multiplayer clan here. We even spend moneys on unlocking everything so we don't have to worry about it. |

It's not really getting around it. If it was first class post, it could be up to 2 days so they're allowed to ship 2 days early.

Not having the extra to cash to spring on faster shipping means I get my copy "on or before: November 30, 2011". If I'd have known it was going to be that long I'd have just gone instore and fucking bought it
