Official: How's your WWE 12 Universe going?

[CMH]

It almost seems to be hard-coded in the game that Slater turns on Gabriel. You would now make the 3rd person in this thread to have seen this. They are in the same team in my game, but Heath Slater had a face turn and they remained a team after turning on Gabriel after a match. I'll see how it plays out. I'd prefer if my teams stayed together for exhibition, so long as they don't tag together anymore in Universe if they really did turn on each other.

And there are no 4 on 1 matches... you can have 3 on 1 and 3 on 2, but there is no way to get a 4 on 1, at least in exhibition.

Oops, you're right. It was 3- on-1.

I didn't see any cutscenes indicating Slater and turned but maybe in time.

Re: Official: How's your WWE 12 Universe going?

Having a blast with universe mode. I'm going to try to mix up the rosters a little, so that there are some new feuds and alliances. However, I've had one problem. On Smackdown, Ezekiel Jackson faced Chavo and won. After the match, Wade Barrett and Animal come down and attack Ezekiel. The next SD, it's Barrett, Animal, and a mystery partner vs. Ezekiel. The mystery partner was Tyson Kidd, which made no sense. But now, that match is the opening match for every SD. I've tried removing Barrett and Animal's alliance, and Ezekiel's fued with the two, no dice. I even try to move them to NXT, my "dead brand", still happening. Any help would be appreciated!

Some how morrison became #1 contender ..and face ziggler at extreme rulez for the wwe championship...should be a good match

The only thing I wish there was someway to make happen is promos for main events in PPVs.

I know that's harder to do when our universe is less scripted than the real world, but if there was a way, I'd love it.

I find it odd that I don't know what matches are coming up in a PPV event until the actual night. You know, I do create some extra drama in my own head and it would help me better immerse myself in the going-ons of my universe if I knew of future matches.

I'm loving universe so far, but the only little thing that's annoying (and quite funny at the sane time) is that The Miz seems to want to get involved in cutscenes during every single show!

So far he's interfered on his own, separate times with Michael Cole, Ted DiBiase, R-Truth, and once when I interrupted a Raw main event and got it thrown out as a no contest.

Other things I have found interesting: 1. Sin Cara injured himself in a 4-way match but didn't really get damaged during the match.

2. Michael McGillicutty turned on Otunga to help Santino who was being attacked.

3. Drew McIntyre won a pre-Royal Rumble battle royal on Raw.

4. Edge and Christian are the new tag champs!

Re: Official: How's your WWE 12 Universe going?

Decided to do a "vacant" WWE title tournament. Here are the matches left:

R-Truth vs Kevin Nash

Shawn Michaels vs CM Punk (winner advances to finals at Royal Rumble)

John Cena vs The Miz


First week of Smackdown:

Nothing exciting happening until the match between Wade Barrett and Edge...as Wade is walking down, Just Gabriel attacks him to start the match. Edge wins the match eventually, and Mark Henry comes out and attacks Edge, smashing him in the head with the World Title belt!

Definitely will be taking this fued to royal rumble for a Henry vs Edge showdown. Just gotta think how I can continue to build the fued. Main event of Smackdown the game has set Undertaker vs Henry, weird I think but we'll see what happens I guess...starting that match now to watch.

EDIT: Taker won the match but something crazy happened afterwards. Henry faked like he was seriously hurt, Take went over to him I thought they were going to form an alliance but nooo...Henry cheap shots Taker in the family jewels haha!! Looks like a triple threat mach is in store for the World Heavyweight Title at Royal Rumble


Question to you guys who have played Universe before as I haven't....

How do you play it? I know it's broad but I'm confused I guess. Do you watch every match? Do you set up every match or do you always go with what the game sets up on each show?? Do you use the interfere option?

I haven't touched it yet this year because I'm still creating a ton of guys before I get going. Last year however, my friend and I each controlled our one created wrestler. We let the cpu book all of the matches and angles. The only thing we controlled was what our own guys did in the ring. Matches that did not involve us were always simmed except for PPVs. When you watch the PPV matches it actually gives you something to get excited about, and feel a little more immersion.

It's up to you how you play it really. I probably play 75% of the matches if not all of them.

It depends on your preference, although watching or playing the matches is the only way to understand what's happening as you can see the cutscenes.

This is the only tiny complaint I have so far: I think we need to have 5 matches on Raw and Smackdown, because there are always quite a lot of wrestlers who I'm not using every week.

That's the reason I'm not using the Divas in Universe, because if it books 4 one on one matches it's only using 8 guys out of 26 or so on each roster, and there are too many good guys not to use them.

Are you just editing the diva matches? I wish we could remove the diva belt/division all together.

You can... I put the Divas on their own brand (along with Michael Cole!). They haven't shown up since, there are no rankings for their belts any more, and they do not show up on TV. Might pop up on PPV's, but since their titles have no ranking, I think it may work. Then I gave Cole all the other belts and remove all his rivals so my universe should be set up the way I want.

And there is no reason why you have to wait just to get all your CAW's. Just add them in as you go, especially if you are going to keep using guys already in the game. Seems a lot easier to let people get involved then if you dump 50 new guys in all at once. Might not see half of them ever.

That's a great idea, adding caws as you go will keep your universe fresh like introducing a new superstar.

Good stuff on the divas. I should have mentioned I am waiting for the CAW because my friend and I always make a full CAW roster.

Today though, I am trying to figure out a way to get an alternate universe going with just my own CAW and not mess up what's already been created.

Re: Official: How's your WWE 12 Universe going?

Just set up my universe (was playing through RTW but ended up buying the unlockables, just no patience) and set up Raw with the Attitude era wrestlers and Smackdown with the new generation. So far it looks good and am ready to start, if only the online servers would work so I could download some CAWs.

Re: Official: How's your WWE 12 Universe going?

3rd match of Universe, CM Punk (me) vs Miz, just a simple back and forth match, hit the GTS for the win. Yet at the end parametics came out with a stretcher, now Miz's career is in jeprody. wow, I wish for next year that injuries are editable like in The Show.
