    It's well on good having 120+ unique roster models but if you can only do like 2 or 3 showcases its pointless , It's like been a firing range with 100's of targets and no gun..

    Also lads relax no need to fall out over a silly game , so hug it out before the mods step in with sanctions and the like we're all friends here , yes arguements and difference of opinions is fair enough but enough is enough to be fair we just want to talk about the game not squabble

    Look Gerry, I'm sorry for calling you a liar. I worded it too harshly and you were right to be angry. I think your a cool guy but if you don't want to acknowledge me that's alright. Just so we're on the same page, can you see why I might have been frustrated?

    Ok. I accept the apology.

    I don't understand the frustration. The whole idea behind creating a thread is so that people can discuss the topic at hand, and add their own opinions. Opinions that most likely will differ. But if you react the way you did over my comments, calling me a liar, and going out of your way to quote me etc, thats a bit much. You might not like the rest of the internet, if you don't like people disagreeing with you, or having a different opinion.

    I think you've taken the thread ownership a bit to heart. Don't feel that I set out to take the piss out of the thread, or out of you. That wasn't the intention. And I wasn't trying to ruin anybody enjoyment of the thread, or even press my opinion onto anyone else (come follow me!).

    Fact is, I've been stung with these games soooOOoo many times. I buy them every year. Foolishly. There were aspects of last year's game to be applauded, but I felt, fundamentally, it was the same game as the previous year.

    And the character models thing - they do this every year. The top 20 guys are done awesome. The remaining guys are "likenesses" and bad ones at that. And the facial scanning tech isn't an excuse, they didn't have CM Punk to hand for facial scanning last year, but they did an amazing job of replicating him in game.

    I honestly agree with you and I'm not just saying that. I was overprotective of a flawed game and tried to pretend any existing problems didn't exist, something I've criticised users of the Xbox One forum for doing in the past. I realise you weren't trying to fùck up the thread and that I got too easily annoyed so I hopped on my high Horse. Speaking of bad models, throw up a photo of Summer Rae's face :D

    So by unique, they mean 120 different people, and NOT 4x Shawn Michaels, 10x Triple H?

    120 before duplicates I think.

    I assume the 120 character models includes NPCs like refs, ring announcers, commentators etc. There's always a catch.

    Even still, the previous count included those too so should be a nice improvement.

    WWE 2K16 Cover to be revealed on Raw this Monday:

    Definitely gonna be Rollins so

    Definitely gonna be Rollins so

    You're Welcome....its Sandow ;)
    Honestly expecting Brock to be somewhere on the cover


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,959 ✭✭✭diusmr8a504cvk


    Unfortunately, I think the cover will have multiple people on it :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,166 ✭✭✭Stereomaniac


    I think they should have John Cena on the cover of the game every year in a different t-shirt.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,959 ✭✭✭diusmr8a504cvk


    This would be great to have, don't know if they can do it but here's hoping!
    We noted before that 2K is working hard to make sure the WWE 2K16 video game has the most up to date roster possible. According to PWInsider, 2K is working on getting recent signings like Samoa Joe in the game, most likely as a downloadable character. 2K's idea is to give fans the greatest wrestling gaming roster ever. - WrestlingInc.com
    Here's the article

    I wouldn't be surprised if Kevin Owens is only available through purchasing the season pass. We got rode by 2K last year when we needed to buy the season pass to get Paige (not that I particularly cared) so I wouldn't be shocked if it happened again.

    Ya, I wouldnt be surprised. Although, I thought the same thing about Sami Zayn last year, and he was included.

    Enzo and Big Cass should be on the cover

    It seems that the alternate cover contest from WWE 2K14 was only a one time thing, but I could be proven wrong!
