Yeah. IGN had said they would have a shitload of info on the game in August but outside of making the first announcement on the 2K Showcase mode and doing a really half-assed roster reveal where they didn't even show in-game models or footage they've done nothing.

It's not even their fault. 2k are the ones holding out. Likely because there's still a lot of work to be done on the game. Don't forget, they were originally planning a March release before having to bump it up to October. No doubt that played havoc with the game's development.
At this point, I'm thinking it could very well end up a rush job, and I'm anticipating 2k16 a lot more, since they'll have more time to get things right. |

Remember when we didn't have access to so much pre-release information on games? Usually all you would get is a preview in a magazine and that would be it, must have driven you guys nuts.
I would have thought they would have released a bit more information by now but as long as I see a few more screen shots and information regarding gameplay, I'll be happy. |

Yeah, but even back then you'd get those previews well before the game came out. And for annual titles it's typical to hold off on info til later, but this is still well outside of the norm given how little we've gotten. Those videos weren't even supposed to be shown, as video was prohibited at that convention. They just got leaked.
I guess another factor is that they were somehow able to get me hyped the last couple years, and while I enjoyed those games somewhat, they didn't end up meeting my expectations. So I'm going in this year very cautious. |

Game Informer preview, although nothing earth shatteringly different from what we've already heard:
Quote:
The weight detection stuff is worrying. People clamored for it year after year and once it was finally put into the game it was botched terribly. I remember not being able to slam Kurt Angle as Gregory Helms. Cruiserweights were utterly useless in that game and The Great Khali was essentially unstoppable. |

That or they could just make it where if you are playing as a superstar that’s within a weight class lower than whoever you’re fighting, you could attempt a slam move on them when your meter is at 100% or 150% by having an alternate button from the Signature/Finisher button that would make you lose that chance at a signature or finishing maneuver for a chance to wear down your opponent as a way to soften them up for a signature/finisher later in the match.
Maybe make it where it’s kind of a minigame where you’re required to successfully match 3-5 on-screen face button prompts to successfully slam the opposing superstar and if you fail they counter, occasionally (but very rarely) even into a pinning situation. Maybe also even have it tie in with the stamina system, where a successful slam might cost a little more stamina to execute than a normal move. Just a few thoughts I had. |

I like the idea of weight restrictions, but if past examples mean anything, they don't apply to finishers. So, having struggled to even Irish whip Big Show with Rey, you can flawlessly hit the most fluid Hurricanrana to set up the 619.

Full length entrances. Goldust looks fantastic. Of course they still didn't get Orton's stobe lighting synched up with his theme despite 2K specifically using his entrance as an example of how they've been fixed this year. Pre-order cancelled.

One line of commentary during the intro? I thought they said they added extra commentary?

They supposedly added over 1,000 new lines of commentary, and had Cole and King do them together to make it more fluid. They never said anything about more commentary during entrances.

Bad news, folks. Theyre possibly pushing out the release date. They want to change Lesnar's finisher to the F16, 16 german suplexes in a row. They have to figure out how to mocap the longest move animation of all time.

According to IGN, 2K is to blame for why their plan of WWE 2k14 being the spotlight game for August ended up being somewhat of a letdown. 2K still has delayed most of the preview videos IGN wanted and IGN thinks it might take a few more weeks to get them all.

This is extremely strange behavior for something with so many decent details coming out.
Now I'm going from excited to skeptical, which is the best posture anyway, because they seem terrified to show anything off. A few years ago we'd have the entrance vids of most the roster by now, entire direct feed matches, and a trailer or two. |

There was something on twitter earlier which suggested that 2K were only just filming the advert for this thing, so they appear to be really far behind with the marketing.

A few new details include Cena being involved with the game's soundtrack selections, Career Mode is exclusive to the PS4 and Xbox One, and all the new gameplay "enhancements" are exclusive to the PS4 and Xbox One.

But that's me screwed then.
I don't have a PS4 or Xbox One, so I'm really starting to think if I should even bother buying the game. Actually, why did they even bother releasing the game for PS3 and 360 in the first place if that's how they're doing things? And I don't know why Cena was the one to select the game's soundtrack, though I'm now expecting Machine Gun Kelly to be on the playlist. |

I would not pay 65 bucks for the 360/ps4 version if I were you. Looking more and more like it's just going to be 2k14 with a roster update. As if rosters even matter that much anymore with community creations being so good.

I guess I could just forget buying it when it's released and maybe pick it up a while after it's release, when it'll be at a cheaper price.
