WWE 2K18 Universe Mode

[Bard]

Hello everyone! Bard back here with the yearly edition of Universe Mode Thread!

In this thread we post about what we are planning with our Universes, and update everyone on them as well!

Hopefully with such a big roster this year we see some new blood come on in and share with us, and have people return and keep posting!

I will likely keep posting my 2K17 Universe, but I will throw the updates on in here so everyone can still read up!

Happy Universe Mode!

Re: WWE 2K18 Universe Mode

Alrighty! Now I want to get this underway (haha), as I am way too excited for 2K18!

Now I am not super sure if I will be posting 2K18 or not, but my 2K17 Universe Mode can be found - http://forums.operationsports.com/fo...ing-now-6.html - in between the lines right there as a shameless plug.

Re: WWE 2K18 Universe Mode

Diggin it Bard.

I will probably run an offline universe but as far as posting I'm not sure. I might do QRs for a real Universe.

Also thinking of doing something like a real sports league with divisions and seasons (probably 4 per year). I will either split them into complete divisions or put stables together with superstars from different divisions and they will face other stables weekly with records being kept. Overall stable records and individual division records. I just have to make stables that would make sense.

Will have to look at rosters to see what I can do.

Re: WWE 2K18 Universe Mode

In one of my saves I plan to do something like a historical timeline.
I was trying to think of how to get most of my favorites from the past in to a universe while not having 40 guys sitting around not doing much because there are only so many matches and so many titles to fight for.
It's one of the biggest challenges to a show with only classic wrestlers compared to the current roster since there are easily hundreds that would be fun to have in your universe.

I plan to have a wwf/wwe show and then after 2 years start a wcw show to run alongside.
What I'm doing is starting with wwf and the 80's/early 90's with a roster of around 35.
Around 6-8 in heavyweight title picture, 10-12 in Intercontinental,5-6 tag teams and a few jobbers.

Unsure how many years I will get through so after every 6 months or so I replace a few guys. It's not a literal timeline but starting to replace guys that were more 80's and short wwe careers while some guys like Undertaker and Shawn Michaels will stay till the end. This way the guys on the roster stay active and involved while at the same time bringing in new guys to keep things fresh.

After 2 years the wwf is now wwe and I add a wcw show around the time when Hall and Nash went to wcw and the start of the Monday night wars.
After playing a couple years wcw may be bought and the Monday night wars may turn into the wwe vs the dawn of TNA when guys like Angle, Sting,Steiner and some other wwe guys started going there.

Assuming the caw limit is 100 my plan is to download caws for the time they are used and then remove and download new guys as they are added to the shows.

Re: WWE 2K18 Universe Mode

I plan on doing an offline Universe mood. I dont quite have the rosters yet in mind but I wish they'd bring back the old system like on raw vs smackdown where each show was against the other and you would get weekly results to which one was better. Now you're just creating to create.

Re: WWE 2K18 Universe Mode

WWE League News Release
Past, Present, and Future Collide as WWE League takes off. This year in WWE2K18 wiscowilz brings you an entirely new concept in the Universe as Stables will come together to compete in a realistic sports league type Universe. Each Stable will consist of the following divisions of superstars. Main Male, Mid Male, and Tag Team. The inclusion of Cruiserweights and Women is still being decided. Every week will consist of Stables facing each other in a series of matches with wins being kept for overall and in each division. At the end of each “season” will be playoffs and the winners of the playoffs will be crowned champions.
All superstars that are not members of stables will be placed in separate leagues with hopes of catching on with stables the following season.
As of right now it looks like 16 teams will be in the first season of WWE League.
News/Rumors on stables are as follows.
Sanity has signed on immediately
Finn Balor is rumored to lead the Balor Club into the league.
We are also hearing that Titus O’Neil is going to lead Titus Worldwide into Season 1.
Will The Wyatt Family reunite for the League?
The New Day may be looking for new members for the league.
Randy Orton, John Cena, Roman Reigns, The Miz, Seth Rollins may all be leading teams into the league.
On the legendary side of things, we are hearing the following rumors:
The Hart Foundations is looking to compete
The Freebirds may compete in some fashion, with rumors of a possible World Class team of Von Erichs/Freebirds
There may be a version of the Horseman taking part
Could we see a version of the nWo? How about a new version of DX?

Re: WWE 2K18 Universe Mode

I'm thinking of having an ROH alumni takeover storyline with the likes of Seth Rollins, Kassius Ohno, Sami Zayn, Kevin Owens and so on, being led by Daniel Bryan who is sick of WWE doctors not allowing him to wrestle.

I think the below are all ROH alumni... have I missed anyone from confirmed roster?

AJ Styles
Cesaro
Daniel Bryan
Kevin Owens
Luke Harper
Sami Zayn
Samoa Joe
Seth Rollins
Kassius Ohno
Roderick Strong
Tommaso Ciampa
Neville
