    If you could, list the alt. attires, thanks man.

      Have you tried to create your own championship match yet? I would love to see how it works. Also, I would love to see universe mode simulated a couple of years and see how it looks. Maybe less tag team breakups? I may have a solution to your problem about vacating the titles. What I did last year is I made a CAW named vacant, and made him hold the title that I wanted to be vacant. Then, I made "Vacant" lose in a match for the championship on Superstars to the guy I wanted to win it. This may be a solution! Another thing I could think of is take a guy you won't use (Heath Slater for me) and have him hold the title. Edit any matches he has, so that he doesn't appear. Then, when you want that championship to be current again, just have him lose the belt. About the free agents, I would also recommend putting them on a brand you don't use, so that they are stuck "appearing" on that brand, which means they won't appear at all.

        Yeah, I was thinking about this. If I can't technically vacate or eliminate all those titles, I'll see if I can just assign them to a crappy create-a-wrestler that I stick on a dead brand. I'll move the legends from the free agents to WCW or NXT and see if that solves that problem. If that's the case, I should be good to go.

        In a perfect world, we shouldn't have to jump through hoops like this to get the game to play the way we want, but I'm almost resigned to it after years of playing Madden, NCAA, etc.

            Yeah, I did the same thing in the past whenever I wanted a certain title to not appear. Though last year I didn't really have to do that because any of the titles that weren't the main titles that had rankings assigned to them could be vacated. This year Universe and Exhibition are separate so I can understand why that would be different. But yeah, just create a blank CAW and put any titles on him that you don't want to appear, and set him as a free agent or some other brand so he shouldn't come up at all. The good part about being able to assign titles to anyone means that you can "vacate" or "unvacate" any titles without actually having to have any matches for the change to happen. Also last year I tried to see if I could set everyone as a free agent so that nobody would appear in Universe at all. It turned out you had to have at least 2 superstars and one diva be assigned to a brand at all times, probably due to the tag titles and divas titles. But other than that I was able to have everyone in the game be a free agent. So the point is, if you put enough time and work into the Superstar Management, you should be able to end up with whatever result that you want to accomplish.

              Christian should. I thought he had his Edge & Christian days attire in.

              I'm betting you unlock attires for those guys.

                E&C attire is DLC. Was hoping for a surprise alt attire of MITB or SS for Punker

                  Hey there, man. I was lurking around, checking your opinions on WWE '12, but I didn't have an account.

                  However, I saw your question about really wanting to know about why you can vacate in Exhibition and not in Universe, and wondering how to do this.

                  Unfortunately, I have news and it isn't terribly good. Marcus Stephenson was recently asked this on his Twitter and he had this to say: "In exhibition you can vacate. In Universe you can't, you can replace. Options > Title Settings"

                  stephensonmc at twitter

                  ^ it's there if you scroll down a bit, added for accuracy and source. (Sorry, it wouldn't let me post links, but i'm sure you know his twitter, anyway)

                  Seems as if what you'll have to do is stick them on someone you have no intention of playing if you don't want that title appearing. Sorry to be the bearer of that news. I still remain positive in the quality of the rest of the game, however much of an oversight this title vacation, (or lack therefore being able to do so) is.

                  Also, I would like to thank you for giving us your impressions on the game.

                    Re: WWE 12 Retail Impressions

                    Alright guys, I think I have this figured out -- with your help, of course. I created a jobber and assigned him to WCW, then assigned all of the non-current titles to him. That solved the problem of guys coming to the ring wearing titles that shouldn't exist in my Universe.

                    I also moved all the Legends I didn't want around in my Universe to WCW and that seems to have solved that problem. Now I'm going to sim a bit and see if they pop back up.

                    Will post results in a few minutes.

                      Good to hear.

                      It's good you can assign multiple titles to a wrestler. This makes me a little more happy!

                      Have you noticed a difference between the "main eventers" and the first card wrestlers? In other words, the Undertakers should always beat the Santinos...

                        Well apparently if you bring a created superstar into the Universe mode, they will find their way onto the card no matter where they are assigned.

                        The guy I created as a dumpster for unwanted titles kept showing up on Raw, even though he was assigned to WCW with the rest of the legends.

                        I had to slap the all the titles on Arn Anderson and then delete the created wrestler to get him out of my Universe.

                        Other than that, not seeing any issues, unless you count Heath Slater winning a match as a bug.

                          But once you put all the titles on Arn Anderson, did he stay in the WCW? Or does he appear on RAW as well?

                            I'm guessing you're referring to when matches are simmed. If so, the results are somewhat predictable, although when you sim a "remarkable match" the results can be unexpected, but that's because something happens in those matches like interference or some other angle-shifting event.

                            I've simmed up the Royal Rumble and the card looks like this (Winners are in parentheses)

                            IC title match: Cody Rhodes vs. Sin Cara (Sin Cara)
                            US title match: Dolph Ziggler vs. Goldust (Goldust)
                            Divs title match: Kelly Kelly vs. Maryse (KK)
                            WWE Championship match: ADR vs. ....David Otunga (I think this was a result of me deleting my created wrestler. Otunga was nowhere near the top of the list of contenders) (ADR thank God)
                            World Championship: Mark Henry vs. Randy Orton (Orton)
                            Royal Rumble match

                              You could try assigning him as a free agent instead of WCW and see if that makes any difference. Unfortunately though the issue might be that the game will always want to include whoever holds a title, regardless of where they are assigned to. But having all of the unwanted titles on one person is still alot easier though because all you have to do is remove him from the card whenever he appears instead of having to do that for several different guys that hold them by default. Still sounds like a bit of an inconvenience but at least it's a work around.

                                And to think leaving in the ability to vacant old titles would had been easier...

                                I really dont care about any titles other than what the WWE use right now so If I dont unlock the old titles would they show up or are they already unlocked?
