You realize that's been in the last 2 WWE games right?

a) I think he was referring to a different game that would allow him to create players and share them. At least that's how I read it.

b) Sharing created superstars was in the game two years ago. Not sure you can count it as being "in" WWE 12. Just my 2c...

No because I want a yearly wrestling game. If it goes to another company you are looking at minimum of 2 years. If its EA, then we know what that means. Has nothing to do with who I know. Most of my buddies from THQ are long gone, if not all of them.

I don't mind the THQ/Yukes has the game until 2017. But the thing is they keep putting things in the game that fans never ask for. Comeback moments is one of them. Stuff like that doesn't make the game fun. THQ need to go back to what work for them in the first place. They need to go back to the days of Here Comes the Pain. That what made the game so fun to play. But now days THQ is trying to add so much stuff to the game that no one wants is making the game boring. Plus they are limiting us in a lot of areas. People want to see THQ allow us to fight from the ringside to the backstage area like we could do back in HCTP days with tons of weapons. Bottomline THQ needs to go back for what work for them in the first place. But they keep on going the wrong direction in a lot of areas of the game. But hopefully WWE13 will prove to be good. But just like with the comeback moment in WWE12. Don't like the idea of the WOW moment neither. Sounds just like another gimmick to me. Instead of stuff like that. Just make the game playable and fun like in the past and the game will sale itself.

Is sharing CAW's in WWE12 not fully possible? What are the liimtations? That stinks if that's the case. I haven't fired it up yet, but had planned on it possibly tonight or tomorrow.

Theoretically, it is fully possible to share created superstars, created finishers, created storylines, created rings, created highlight reels, and so on.

In practice, it's not fully possible to share all that user content because THQ's servers are the worst servers I have ever interacted with in my recreational video game playing career.

THQ's infrastructure _must_ get better.

I'm quoting this purely for emphasis. Sadly, it is not hyperbolic. At all.

Re: THQ and WWE in Partnership Through 2017

Respectfully, I disagree. Not many modes have the ambition of Universe Mode, and gameplay (especially CPU v CPU) was great in '12. Could it use some competition? Sure. But I don't think THQ has done a poor job with the series at all.

I'm gonna agree with this post. All in all, I enjoy what I'm getting from THQ's WWE series. I think Universe Mode is a great addition to the series.

Surely, tho, the game needs some severe polishing. The game seems pretty poor in the quality assurance department.

But all in all, I'm enjoying the WWE series.

Re: THQ and WWE in Partnership Through 2017

As long as they keep improving from year-to-year with each game, and add SPECIAL GUEST REFEREE, then I will continue to buy WWE games until 2017. I'm still playing WWE 12 and I got in on release day!

Re: THQ and WWE in Partnership Through 2017

Holy hell you all weren't lying. These servers are atrocious. Even IF I get to download a CAW... the game will freeze, making me restart after it's downloaded. PS3 by the way.

The servers do seem to work with nonzero reliability if you log on late at night. I'm talking after 11PM EDT. But it's still pretty shaky. It's easily the most disappointing part of the game.

Re: THQ and WWE in Partnership Through 2017

I'm assuming that there is no way to download from the net and put them on a USB card either, right?

Re: THQ and WWE in Partnership Through 2017

I dont like the direction they took this year re the roster

Id rather have EVERY current wrestler than a whole bunch of attitude era wrestlers, most of which are current wrestlers under different gimmicks thus basically just different outfits

Specifically on the XBOX 360, there is, but it's a headache to do because of the way THQ locked down the WWE 12 save file. I'm at work today, but I'll try to get back to this thread later with more details.

EDIT: saw above that you're on PS3... as far as I know, no dice for that console.

[WTF]

Re: THQ and WWE in Partnership Through 2017

Yeah, on PS3. Ridiculous that I paid $9.99 to access the online portion of the game, and it barely works.

Pitiful.

Re: THQ and WWE in Partnership Through 2017

Can't people sue THQ or something if they actually paid to use the servers and the servers don't even work? And THQ obviously didn't care to fix it. Since they can constantly advertise Mike Tyson on WWE13 on the WWE12 server screen, but can't even fix the WWE12 server.

To be fair, it was HARDLY in WWE '12. I mean, it was in, but c'mon. It's July now and CC still doesn't let me on the servers.
