WWE 2K20

gerrybbadd

So, I guess i'll get this started off so.

Little info has been available up until now, but 2K have promised an info drop, including Cover Star info, on August 5th. In the meantime, they've dribbled out 2 screens for us to look at.


I'm hoping they build on the momentum of last year's career mode, it was truly worth playing. I think as well, if they are keeping Universe Mode, it requires a huge overhaul.

I've little interest in a GM Mode myself, but i know its long requested by WWE Game fans. Be interesting to see what drops on August 5th

Would whoever (I know who) make extra royalty money for being on the cover?

It's like a sponsorship deal, I suppose. If you're big enough to be wanted on the cover, you're big enough to demand payment for it.

Where would be the best place to pre order the deluxe edition in Ireland? Is that even possible?

GameStop I imagine

Or Smyths.

If you want it digitally, I found the Indonesian PSN to be (by far) the cheapest

Mixed match challenge confirmed by WWE for 2k20.

As is four horsewomen showcase and my career is both male and female this year.

gerrybbadd

I'm hoping for more than has been announced.

Women's MyCareer - meh
WWE Originals - meh
Towers mode (Roman Reigns) - meh

Once again nothing about wwe games interests me.

Looking forward to the projected yukes game, where we might get a proper fun game instead of silly gimmicks

gerrybbadd

Seems Yukes have not been involved in the creation of this edition of the game.

First time in 20 years or something, it's all Visual Concepts on behalf of 2K.

Apparentlly, Yukes weren't happy with the output the last few years, and have set to make their own wrestling game, as a rival to the WWE series

Gave up these after 2k14 (12 year old me would be disgusted as I was a manic for wrestling games in years gone by). Think it was the controls been too complicated that made me said **** these games. It's the same for other games nowadays for me. All controls seem complicated

Well, apparently they are streamlining the controls this year to simplify them. Must be there's a lot of folks such as yourself that find them difficult.

The controls haven't changed a lot down through the years really though

First entrance reveal in a few hours. No doubt it'll be of a superstar that we've seen a million times before.

Trying to embed this and it won't work for some reason.

Entrance is indentical to 2k19, other than the new hair and shorts colour

Real lack of news on gameplay and roster is slightly worrying. Maybe just going to another lick of paint job...

I always been a big defender of the 2k games from the "It's the same as Here comes the pain and not as good as No Mercy 64" group.

But this year I'm definitely not into it. The lack of news or hype seems like this really will be just a roster update. I also dread to think what the loot boxes will be like if NBA 2K is anything to go by.

I will pick it up if then game if it not a total crash at launch also like NBA 2K, but I will wait till it goes on sale. It always does pretty fast every year.

Hopefully there keeping quiet as some cool new stuff in the game or a quiet year for a major revamp next year, maybe with the PS5 coming out who knows.

See this is what this is annoying me. Just before WWE 2K19 came out everywhere reported this year would be quiet as the developers are going all out for WWE 2k20 and none of that happened by the looks of it. I’ve no hope for next year either.

seandotcomm

Their marketing department really has done a píss poor job at promoting the game this year.
Next to no info on updates to gameplay or features.
All we've gotten are some entrance videos... about 10 seconds of boring gameplay footage a stupid amount of live action videos with wrestlers talking about how great it is to have a womens showcase or how great it is to be on the cover.

I've bought every wrestling game since WWF in Your House and I've never been less excited for the release of a WWE game.
They'd want to have some serious aces up their sleeve for this game to be worth buying.. but it's out in about 4 weeks and there's no roster reveal or proper new features announced.

Won't even get into that "WWE Originals" content that they're hyping... Who, over the age of 10 wants to play as Treeman Bray Wyatt or Frankenstein's Monster Braun Strowman?!?

jface187

Haha true. I know idea where this "monster" version of the wrestlers demand has come from and who is looking forward to it?

Kids, simple as that.

jface187

They made these Monsters/Zombies toys for kids and didn't sell well. I'm not sure if it really appealing to kids. Also the lack of marketing on it probably not going to help.

Very decent! Man, graphics have come such a long way. I thought they looked realistic when Here Comes The Pain was released but this takes the cake.

I love the fact that both Raw and Smackdown got new stages just in time for new WWE video game. Great way to make it feel outdated already. :pac:

It's the same unscanned Rock model they've been using for every game since it moved to current gen consoles. I've noticed though that the facial animations in the entrances tend to distort the faces, particularly the mouths to make them look worse than they already do. it's particularly bad this year...

here's Molly Holly's model


looks more like Sgt. Slaughter

LibSuperstar

Does she sell like Slaughter tho?

Havent got any replayability in a wwe game in at least 10 years. Mycareer is fine but there should be a mode like that with current roster and legends available. A story and gm mode

There was a good stroy mode last year, kinda wished they kept going with the "Buzz" story. Also they had showcase mode last year too. I belive this year has the same thing. Can't stand universe mode, never got it. Do wish they had a GM mode too. If you look at WWE as a fighting game I would say it has the same content as Injustice or Mortal Kombat. After the main stuff is over is about how much fun you have playing, esp online mode.

Does it still have universe mode or is that replaced by the GM mode?

It still has the same Universe mode it’s had for years. But now with extra ppv matches.

I have to say the game completely represent the product. It’s completely stale.
