Re: WWE 2K15: First Details Emerge About New-Gen Debut

I wonder if they will stream it live on WWE Network.

Also seeing DX together in that makes me start wondering if it is possible that we will see the Monday Night Wars theme for the game.

I would assume we will know some details about the theme that night or can make a good assumption based on the roster.

wasn't Monday Night Wars already the theme in WWE '13? like I know they mostly did Attitude Era in that game but I doubt they would put a whole WCW roster in the game.

A Monday Night Wars and Attitude Era are two completely different things. The Attitude Era is a WWE Era, the Monday Night Wars is WWE vs WCW.

Other than having the ratings and mentioning they won the war, there was nothing to do with the Wars in WWE 13.

Exactly would love to chose a side a recreate or change history in the ratings war. However I doubt it's possible to create dynamic ratings based on your booking. But I would take playing major events in both companies.

Well they're not completely different. The Attitude Era is the WWE side of the MNW.

The Attitude Era is not the Monday Night Wars though. The Attitude Era is a WWE Era.

An Attitude Era and Monday Night Wars Game Mode WOULD be two completely different modes.

Re: WWE 2K15: First Details Emerge About New-Gen Debut

I'll buy the game regardless, but Universe Mode will make or break my experience with the game. I hope they either made the rivalry maker much better (it was so redundant and glitchy in 2K14; every week, the participants would face in Extreme Rules/submission matches, for every rivalry. I'd love it if the game-makers watched WWE programming and saw how WWE builds rivalries, and even somewhat incorporated that into the game.

Same here. For all of its maddening flaws, Universe mode sells the game for me. Rivalry mode was a great addition last year, but the implementation left a lot to be desired. Like you said, too many head-to-head matches between the rivals, and for some reason half of them were submission matches and falls count anywhere matches. If you did a 12-week rivalry between Undertaker and the Rock, it often meant that they would just fight each other 12 times (or I guess 15 times with PPV matches).

Instead, I'd like to see a rivalry sequence like this for example:

1. Heel calls Face out after a random match (rivalries sometimes started this way in 2K14)
2. Face vs. random opponent; Heel does a run-in and causes a DQ
3. Heel and Face have a match, but Heel weasels out of it, sending a lackey to fight instead
4. Tag team match where Face partners with another face and Heel partners with another Heel
5. Face vs. Heel at PPV

The Attitude Era happened during the Monday Night Wars. It runs almost the same exact length of time as the Monday Night Wars. If you had a Monday Night Wars mode you would have A LOT of the same matches on the WWE side as you had in the Attitude Era mode.

You wouldn't have to have a lot of the matches. Yes, some would be necessary but you're still talking about what would be roughly half of the game mode. There were matches left out on the WWE side (due to contracts), as well as matches that could've been deemed unnecessary.

LOL that's the point I've been trying to make and you said they are completely different.

The Attitude Era and the Monday Night Wars would be TWO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT GAME MODES with TWO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT PURPOSES.

If you don't understand, move along.

I actually understand what the other guy is saying. You'd already have half of the Monday Night Wars inherent in the Attitude Era mode. So really, all you'd need to add is WCW.

If you're talking about actual booking the shows, and going head to head with one another, where ratings are dependent on match quality and feuds, then we're talking a separate mode that you can call Monday Night Wars.

Otherwise, if Monday Night Wars is playing WWF and WCW during the late 90s, you've already done that in WWE 13 with the Attitude Era mode.

He doesn't get it.

Moving on.

IGN (as terrible as always) apparently looked to fuel the fire. They're listing Jeff Hardy as a rumored character for 2k15. They must not know he's under contract with another company.

Add me to the list of people who think the Attitude Era was the WWE side of the Monday Night War.

Re: WWE 2K15: First Details Emerge About New-Gen Debut

Since I obviously need to spell it out.

WWE Attitude Mode:
Significant events during the Attitude Era, strictly WWE.

Monday Night Wars Mode:
Significant events during WCW and WWE that allowed the battle between the two premier wrestling companies in the country including times that made the people change the channel to the other, superstars jumping ship and making surprise debuts on other shows etc.
