Re: WWE 12 Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here

I traded in several games and picked this game up (360) along with some MS points so I can buy the DLC pack and a 1-month Gold membership to DL a bunch of CAWs and arenas.

Looking forward to diving into Universe Mode.

I wouldn't activate that gold membership just yet. A month from now we still might not be able to get on for more than 5 minutes to DL CAWS.

Universe is so damn addicting. My God......

This is the type of wrestling game I wish I was playing in my younger days when I spent hours on end playing them. I loved Smackdown 2 and HCTP, but Universe Mode is just so full of win.

Totally agree, I am taking it round to a friends tonight because they want to play a Rumble because they heard me talking about it lol. Thing is they aren't even into wrestling.

I just had an awesome Iron Man Match between Randy Orton-Mark Henry (me), Henry won 6 pins to 2 but that was mainly down to the fact i managed to reverse a few RKO's.

I am addicted to this game and i haven't even bothered with CAW's, dont get me wrong i downloaded a few but deleted them and searching at the moment is just a chore.

What's the best way to reverse a finisher because it's mostly an animation cutscene so I don't know when to press the reversal button. I did it once or twice at the beginning but I can't remember when I pressed it.

And when you have a stored finisher, how would you activate it to get the F to start lighting up so you can use it? Do you have to pull off a few moves to get it lit up or is there a button that activates it immediately?

Finisher reversal is just like reversing any other move. The window and point of reversal is different for every move. Do you have reversal indicators on?

Stored finishers can be used just like flaming ones. Just press Y/triangle in the appropriate position. When you hit a signature you get a "super (flaming) finisher". It does more damage if you hit it when it's on fire, but if you don't you can still hit a regular finisher.

My initial impressions on WWE 12 are mostly positive. This game is a definite improvement from last year's game, and from previous WWE games on the 360/PS3.

I like the new control scheme, although I don't understand how to increase the bar on my submissions, and I'm struggling with the new meter on pin kickouts, but otherwise, things are very smooth.

The presentation is GREAT. I like the additional camera cuts and the audio on the entrance music is much improved from previous years. The player models look good, too.

Universe Mode is also improved from SVR 11. I haven't had the chance to download anything yet, so I'm just running with the out-of-box rosters (I got a copy that had The Rock download, so he's in the game) and I made most of the current-day WWE changes, although I still have Awesome Truth as a group.

The AI is definitely harder than last year. Right now I'm playing on Hard with no slider adjustments and I'm probably winning 60% of the matches right now.

Brock Lesnar's addition is very welcomed by this individual. I like that the developers gave Lesnar some MMA-inspired submissions, too. Nice touch.

I can see myself spending A LOT of time in Universe Mode, especially once I download a few different arenas and created wrestlers. I'd like to change Smackdown to WCW Nitro at some point, but for now, I'm having fun with the game the way it is.

There's still some legacy issues with this game, but most of us that have played wrestling games for decades know what they are, so I won't go into detail.

Fun-factor is huge for me with these games and this is the most fun I've had with a wrestling game since Legends of Wrestlemania. Kudos to the developers for improving on its product.

RTWM is easily the worst part of this game. Just poorly done and Ive created better stories using Create a Story Mode.

And

Why do companies put things in the game that pisses off the player and not make them want to play anymore?

Who in the blue hell came up with a 5 vs 1 ladder match???

The match is already flawed with the ai rat racing to the ladder without gaining momentum first. Combine that with the AI cramming the ring...Headaches!!!

I totally suck in this game this year. I can't hardly beat any opponent....on EASY! Must be the new controls.

If anyone wants to play the TLC match card in story mode, I've uploaded it on community creations. It has Nash(with NWO music) and Booker unlocked.

The name of it is "TLC". Just search for Tables Ladders Chairs in the story section

It also has the ladder match with HHH/Nash and the sledgehammer as the main object in extreme rules matches.
The chairs match is done the same way, all 4 object slots are made into chairs

Got the game, for Xmas, and was able to get in one match before I had to make my dish for xmas dinner, per my agreement with my GF.

Long story short first match went about 15 seconds as I couldn't figure out how to break out of a submission hold I was put in. Lol and good times. Looking forward to getting more time with this game.

Just got this game Friday and I'm really liking it.

Re: WWE 12 Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here

Also got the game as a gift. Hammered in my first match as I get used to the controls.

Downloaded a CAW but when I went to edit it, game froze but haven't tried again since then.

Re: WWE 12 Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here

I havent played this game in a few weeks, just been catching up on some other gaming.

Had the rental for over a month now and since the price drop, I am def picking this up.

Havent got into comm creations or create a story yet so that should be a blast when I get the retail.
