Smackdown vs. Raw 2011 Patch List

[Streets]

- The inability to defend any title at a non-PPV event in WWE Universe
- Instances where the human or CPU can pin one another in under 30 seconds with a simple move (i.e. a clothesline).
- Crowd noise sounding like static (was much better last year)
- Inability to set any move as a signature move (this was available last year)
- The inability to put someone through an announce table without diving off the top rope.
- The fact that attributes can only be edited in increments of 5.
- The fact that there are only 4 matches per card in WWE Universe often resulting in popular wrestlers disappearing for months.
- Issues of wins and losses seemingly having no effect on the WWE Universe rankings (which makes it hard to get created wrestlers even on the card at times)


Please add on. I know we have developers on here who read this, and if they are serious about making a patch, then we should collect as much info as we can so it’s all in one concise place.

Things like not having a title history or being able to choose when to interfere or jump people in Universe aren’t things that can be patched (I think). I’m strictly looking for things that THQ could possibly have control over, and fix in a patch.

Re: Smackdown vs. Raw 2011 Patch List

Not to sound negative, but if history is any indication of the future, than THQ will not patch anything. If they happen to:

- Attributes should be increments of 1, not 5.
- Definitely fix the "static" noise. How that obvious noise got by "testing", who knows.
- Ability to add more than 4 matches per card.

Re: Smackdown vs. Raw 2011 Patch List

At least they know this issues:

@stephensonmc Is THQ trying to create a patch to improve some issues? Here is a list if you're interested http://www.operationsports.com/forum...atch-list.html

@ErmolliCarrera we're talking about it, no promises. I know this issues, bro -- thanks though!

Re: Smackdown vs. Raw 2011 Patch List

4 matches per card is the biggest one for me. I have plenty of issues with the gameplay, but they're mostly related to the fact that SvR gameplay is about as outdated as you get. Still, WWEU could be far more exciting with 6 or 8 matches per card.

Re: Smackdown vs. Raw 2011 Patch List

On the 25% chance they do issue a patch it will be so far down the road, probably 4 to 6 months, that most people will have longed stopped playing this by then. THQ is much more motivated in providing DLC in order to make more money.

*Let's not forget the obsessive playing of user music. I thought it was funny last night. I played a tables match, set my opponent on it, and dove off the TB. My opponent rolls out of the way, and my music wouldn't stop playing for the rest of the match.

*Also, I noticed Cole constantly says the wrong person kicking out of a pin attempt.

*Fix the insanity of the MITB.

Re: Smackdown vs. Raw 2011 Patch List

- Allow Silver to be able to download CAWs or make PS3 users have Plus. Either one.

- Fix the constant booing when playing as heel.

- The double up on the title name during the ring annoucement. It's attached to intially saying "This match is one fall and for the -insert title name here-" but right after that they say "and is for the -insert title name here-" again.

- Give us Khali and all those moves you locked away that are actually in the game but not selectable. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rjoy19OEzus

- A seperate audio slider for commentary so it can be turned off without turning off voices.

- This is someone's HHH CAW:



FIX THE LOGO PROBLEM. It's been years. It's ridiculous. Half the cross is cut off on the front. Thought it was fixed when I saw other CAWs but obviously not.

- Remove the ratings caps. We were supposed to be able to do anything we wanted this year. Had to buy "DLC" to edit ratings and can't even edit a lot of them cause they're capped at 80 or some crap like that.

- Allow no DQ matches with female managers.

- I couldn't get Jericho's rebound strike or Big Show's rebound signature grapple to ever actually work. Should probably fix those.

Re: Smackdown vs. Raw 2011 Patch List

Make is harder to win? make it so on legend the cpu actually kicks out of weak moves and even finishers sometimes, bring back some sort of drama to the matches

the easy pin glitch is pretty bad and I cant believe it hasnt really been brought up

Re: Smackdown vs. Raw 2011 Patch List

Might wanna do something about this:

I don't play online so I'm not affected but still. Amazingly lost despite all his cheating.

Re: Smackdown vs. Raw 2011 Patch List

Ok, a few major issues I want to see addressed.

Likely to be patchable (ie data-based)
* Increase the CPU's activity in matches (BIGGEST problem with the challenge in this game is the CPU's tendency to stand around doing nothing- the momentum system would work a lot better if the CPU put itself in a position to stay on offense by not giving you time to recover and take control)
* Eliminate stupidity in CPU's part (not pinning after finisher, placing opponent on turnbuckle then climbing out on the apron and waiting)
* Lower damage done by all basic moves, increase damage done by finishers, increase momentum gained through reversals (next version of the game needs "signature reversals" that can lead to an immediate finisher). Find a way to make sure I'm not beating the CPU or being beaten by a series of punches and a clothesline!!!
* Lower volume of custom music
* Fix glitch that makes custom music play during match after pausing or throwing someone over the top rope
* Remove size based ratings caps. I don't care if Undertaker is not 400 lbs, he is "the greatest pure striker in the history of the WWE", why can't I put him at 100 striking?
* Fix static sound

Unlikely to be patchable (ie Content issues)
* Increase number of matches on Raw and Smackdown to 6, 7, or 8
* Increase number of matches on SS to 4
* Change base Tag title in WWE Universe to WWE Tag Team Championship (sick of having tag champions always come out separately)
* Allow increments of 1 point rather than 5 for ratings
* Add sliders- "Standing Strike Damage", "Standing Grapple Damage", "Ground Strike Damage", "Ground Grapple Damage", etc.

Re: Smackdown vs. Raw 2011 Patch List

Another addition: Match selection at PPVs... WrestleMania has Undertaker vs. Kane in a World Heavyweight Championship match, the Undertaker vs. a 55 rated created wrestler (the 19-0 match), no WWE Championship match, and the main event is Sheamus vs. Vladimir Koslov! Kane has appeared twice in nearly every PPV of the year (he was #1 contender and Intercontinental Champion for most of those PPVs, 'Taker has held the title almost the entire way- not complaining, that's fine, just explaining why the game has Kane vs. Taker over and over).

Hopefully for next year they'll give us a bit more control over the rankings (for instance, the ability to place someone in the rankings for one title and completely remove them from contention for the other).

Same here. It had CM Punk competing for the US title, then defending the World Title at the main event. How THQ / Yukes keeps missing these things is uncanny.

Re: Smackdown vs. Raw 2011 Patch List

Yet ANOTHER item... I just played out the MitB match. Now, I've become used to guys getting pinned after fairly harmless moves. I make it a point to never pin unless the match has been ridiculously long (and thus each guy is beat up enough for a pin to make sense) or after a finisher because it's just too easy to wear a guy down to nothing... however...

E-Jack gets backdropped off the ladder onto the steel steps (which had been tossed into the ring)... and pops right back up! Wow, if all you do with damage, THQ, is introduce some consistency, I'll at least be happy with that.

Re: Smackdown vs. Raw 2011 Patch List

Please unlock the moves that are on the disc but not available without hacking them in. I don't have a mod console, never really wanted one. But they were shown to be on the actual game, just "hidden". SO please take the lock off of them!
