WWE '12 - Story Mode Detailed (IGN)

Re: WWE '12 - Story Mode Detailed (IGN)

Thanks EG.

RTWM is a "whatever" mode for me. However, I can't wait until you can disclose information about Universe 2.0. That is my bread and butter and the reason I'm looking forward to this game!

That is the real issue with this mode... what if you simply don't like Sheamus or HHH, you are stuck playing as them for 3.5 hours each just to unlock stuff you want. Its a risky move and I am surprised those two were the guys selected. I think it probably had a lot more to do with schedules to do voice over than anything else.

I don't mind playing as Sheamus that much, but I am already dreading playing as HHH who I find an absolute bore. I hate his moveset, I hate his voice, I really hate that he spits water, I hate to even look at him. Yet, I am stuck playing with him.

That seems like a really limited mode. Also, it doesn't sound like there are branching story lines, so there is no reason to ever play this mode more than once.

Yea I'm in the same boat as you man. I don't really like either. I find Sheamus a bore and haven't liked HHH since Evolution days. I do look forward to playing the parts as my CAW but the rest not so much. However, I do LOVE the fact that it's going to be one 18 month story instead of 6 shorter stories like the past few years. I think it will also have quite a few options from the way it sounds to make it have different paths. I still just wish though you could create a character and play the entire 18 months with that one character.

looks like I'll be playing story for the first time in a long time..

A stable of Wade, Regal, Drew and Sheamas? That was my idea lol

If the story is good though I'll pretty much play through anything with anybody. Just hope it's entertaining

HUGE Sheamus fan myself, hope I don't lost interest after his segment...

Re: WWE 12 Road to Wrestlemania Detailed

One bit of info, you can make your CAW look however you want in RTWM, BUT (and I wasn't a big fan of this), he's always named Jacob Cass. It's because of using real voice overs (another thing I expressed I'm not a fan of and would rather have text).

Welp...

Guess Austin Aries will make his WWE debut with a new name.

I'm looking for Universe 2.0 news. Wasn't it supposed to be today also??

According to this:

Universe is tomorrow. Just found out.

Embargo for Universe news lifts tomorrow, meaning any news outlet that was at our event can post about Universe. So bad to wait 1 more day?

Re: WWE '12 - Story Mode Detailed (IGN)

Definitely lost my 60 bucks with this. Sheamus bugs the hell out of me, HHH is rarely used anymore and always having your name as Jacob Cass just annoys me.

And like the article said, Universe is just too boring for me. If the whole 18 months was with your CAW, I would enjoy that a lot more. Too many things in that article led me more and more away from the game.

Sorry THQ

Extreme I agree that the 18 month long RTWM is much better then the 5 mini ones. I'm looking forward to going through it and see how it ends. I think the game it turning out to be very good this year compared to years past.

I miss how SD 2 and SYM's story mode was in the older games. I love the direction THQ is taking with the Story Mode now. However, I don't like the limitation of playing with Sheamus and HHH. What was THQ smoking that caused them to think that everyone would want to use these two and have "Jacob Cass" as your CAW's name for the mode.

You use Sheamus, HHH and Jacob Cass.

The limitation is on voice acting, nothing more. That's why your guy is named Jacob Cass. He goes through NXT and then becomes a superstar, otherwise it would sound goofy the whole time if it's "This guy" or "Mongo" something or other.

Trust me, I'm not a fan of the CAW named part, we expressed that. BTW, CASS is for... Create a SuperStar. LOL

The Sheamus storyline and the Cass ones are absoultely awesome though, you won't mind using them, trust me. We marked out over and over again over the Sheamus story.
