Q1. Have any new match types been added.
All I can say on this is we are working on one but the way things are going it does not look like its gonna be in. Sorry thats all I can say.
Q2. How many are hopefully gonna make it in the final roster.
We are hoping Fingers crossed for a roster between 55 - 70.
Q3. Are there any kind of INNOVATING new things being put in this one.
We are keeping the grappling system virtually the same after the huge sucess of the last one, bet we are thinking of tweeking it.But Nothing To Major. But Online Play is pretty Innovating for a wrestling game.
Q4. Do you enjoy your job.
Somedays and Somedays I don't. But mostly yes. Otherwise I would Quit.
Q5. Will Undertaker be appearing as the dead man.
Yes.
Q6. Will there still be Jeff Hardy's moveset.
Yes.
Q7. Will shane O Mac and Mick Foley be in.
Mick Foley Yes Shane O Mac the moment 50/50 because he has only featured once last year really. But we Thq feel there are more important wrestlers to fill the roster.
Q8. Which divas will be in the game.
Victoria, Trish Stratus, Stacy Kiebler, Torrie Wilson, Gail Kim, Molly Holly, Lita, Jazz, but we might be taken Jazz out.
Q9. Will the divas each have 2 or more attires.
Can't really gives you news on this because there aint none except for Torrie wilson she does.
Q10. Which wrestlers/divas have been put in the game so far.
Torrie Wilson, Stacy Kiebler, Trish Stratus and Gail Kim.
Q11. Will "legends" be in again? If so, any ideas of who's being lined up.
We are unsure we might not be adding this feature this year, all because of Copy rights and disk space.
We have been trying really hard to get The Ultimate Warrior on a Smackdown game but because Mr Warrior owns the rights he has the final word. He pulled out last year due to two reason. 1, Better offer from Acclaim and he would rather be on LOW than a wwe title. But we are trying to get the rights for Bret The Hitman Hart all sorted out.
So another Idea for the game is to just have less Legends this years.
But overall its a 50/50 chance of Legends making it.
Also Andre The Giant & Hulk Hogan all possiblities.
Q12. Will kane/Rvd/Victoria/Dudleys/Rikishi have their new themes.
Kane we have sorted the Copy rights out just as Smackdown 5 was shipped so yes, Rikishi Yes, Dudleys still not settled the same with Victoria.
Q13. Will Smackdown! Word Life be at E3.
No plans for it to be there so no, But things might change if we feel we have not got a strong line at this years E3.
Q14. Will royal rumble be better.
No real big changes yet but, there is talk in the pipe line of having more people in the ring.
Q15. Will kane sit up as well as undertaker.
His Moveset has not even been touched yet from the previous smackdown yet, so at the moment no.
Q16. Will there be better chair moves like more specials.
We are trying to make the enviroment more interactive then ever this year that includes chairs but the design team upstairs are sorting that stuff out so i'll ask them tommorow for you. But at the moment...well when I saw them this morning they where working on The Wrestlemania XX Arena.
Q17. How many specials per superstar.
Same as last time, only 2.
Q18. Is kane going to have his whole attire (SD!5 one) and then his tights.
Kane's attire at the moment is just the one with tights and no top.
Q19. Will Austins ATV be featured in the game.
Yes.
Q20. If you are Taker for season mode and your at WMXX, will druids & Paul bearer be there.
We are planning to have this in the game at Wrestlemania XX.
