  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,609 ✭✭✭irish_stevo815


    Did they say what the 1st DLC was??

    It was announced a couple of weeks ago - It has Chris Masters, a Rey Mysterio Alt. costume, and some divas Alt. costume or something like that

    I guess you'll have to pay for DLC 2 just for some Nexus members:(:(

    Here is a full breakdown:

    Raw: (31)

    David Hart Smith
    Edge
    Evan Bourne
    Eve
    Ezekiel Jackson
    Gail Kim
    Goldust
    John Cena
    John Morrison
    Mark Henry
    Maryse
    Melina
    Natalya
    Nikki Bella
    Primo
    R-Truth
    Randy Orton
    Santino Marella
    Shawn Michaels
    Sheamus
    Ted DiBiase
    The Miz
    Triple H

    Smackdown: (22)
    Beth Phoenix
    Big Show
    Chavo Guerrero
    Christian
    CM Punk
    Cody Rhodes
    Dolph Ziggler
    Drew McIntyre
    Finlay
    Jack Swagger
    JTG
    Kane
    Kelly Kelly
    Kofi Kingston
    Luke Gallows
    Matt Hardy
    Michelle McCool
    MVP
    Rey Mysterio
    Shad
    Undertaker
    Vance Archer

    DLC:
    Chris Masters
    British Bulldog
    Lex Luger
    Wade Barrett
    David Otunga
    Justin Gabriel
    Layla
    Alt. Attire Rey Mysterio
    Alt. Attire Kelly Kelly
    Alt. Attire Shad
    Alt. Attire Shawn Michaels
    NXT Arena

    Overall there seem to be (not including DLC) 53 playable Superstars, this is no where near the so called 70+ Superstars that were stated. Even with the DLC, it's still only 60.
    So maybe there are some Legends/Superstars that have to unlocked in the game, This would make sense i guess.

    14 more in-game Superstars to be revelaed :)

    From the SvR 2011 Community Site, this was posted by THQ Tank:
    Hey everyone,

    Tomorrow at our official website, http://wwe.thq.com we will launch an epic roster section which will blowout in-depth details on each superstar including their intro/finisher video, full bio, stats, wrestling gameplay tips, and more. We'll be activating 25 of them tomorrow, and the rest as we move towards launch on Oct 26!

    In case you missed our Live Roster Reveal Show, here is which Superstars have been announced so far! There are still 14 WWE Superstars that have yet to be revealed (and none of them are DLC, all will be in the game) which we will unveil in the coming weeks, and that's the bottom line!

    Stevo signing off for some Z's!!!!!!

    Eh that's impossible as the RTWM's in this years game are: Cena, Christian, Mysterio, Jericho and Vs. Undertaker.

    I know, i would love if Bryan was in the game, but he still could be one of the 14 to be revealed. If not there's always future DLC and of course Create a Superstar


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,600 ✭✭✭✭CMpunked


    Creating current day wrestlers with create a wrestler is possibly the most boring thing to do on any game these days.

    Back when it was SD! Shut your mouth and a roster of 20, it was a necessity.
    Surely not now.


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 16,116 Mod ✭✭✭✭Furious-Red


    Was just on wwe.com and was looking throught the pics of the superstars and some of them are terrible

    http://www.wwe.com/inside/news/sdvsraw2011/photos/superstargallery/

    eg Bret Hart
    DH Smith
    Edge
    Primo
    CM Punk(who actually looks like Jesus)
    Big Show

    Wow, Punk is the exact double of him


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,943 ✭✭✭Machismo Fan


    eg Bret Hart

    The Bret Hart is terrible. Plus the Matt Hardy is dreadfully unrealistic.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,083 ✭✭✭waltersobchak


    Punk looks more like a skagged out of it Junkie.. Ironically enough!:pac:

    I honestly can't tell if this is a good or bad image.
    Body wise it looks spot on. Not sure about the face.

    But that's the same with the most of them?

    Personally i think the animation has been brought back this year in quality


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,014 ✭✭✭✭jaykhunter


    MVP and Rey Mysterio look incredibly lifelike; but the vast majority are basic approximations/caricatures. I guess it's just an art style but i'd wish they'd actually scan the wrestler's skin in and put it over a wire frame. Personally I think TNA's iMPACT (2008)

    123o7y0.jpg

    absolutely smokes SvR 2011's

    Is that actual in game footage though? Because theres a massive difference between that and a screen shot to be fair..

    That pic of Kurt Angle from the TNA game does look way better. But were the in game graphics up to that of SvR though?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,014 ✭✭✭✭jaykhunter


    The camera's a bit farther out in-game so it's harder to scrutinize, but they'd both use the same models for entrances and in-game iirc.

    Sorry to bring this off-topic!
    Anyway scanning real skin > artist's rendition any day for me :D

    The graphics and the counter-system are the ONLY things that iMPACT game has going for it. Every other aspect is deplorable!!

    hahahaha, where did Matt Hardy get that 6-pack from :pac:

    Good God what have they done to you!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,772 ✭✭✭johnn


    What is the point of the screenshots on wwe.com, we all know they wont look as lifelike as that in the game itself. Funnily enough Cena, of all people, seems to be one of the poorer looking renditions, facily anyway.

    Ive looked at a few vids so far and it seems to be almost an identical in-game engine to last year with more table-spots thrown in, which really doesnt interest me. I want a challenging wrestling game, a game like No Mercy where in the season mode you would go into a match against Triple H or Taker and you knew you were gonna have a tough time coming out the winner, not like the nonsense easy season modes in the last game.

    Defo think this'll be the first SD! i wont buy, didnt like the last one, and there doesnt even to be any mention of any gameplay improvements in the build for this one, seems to be all about how much more **** you can do with a ladder or steel chair
