Gameplay looks a little better. I like all of the stamina animations.

WWE 2K15 First Footage and Gameplay changes
- Thread starter Lord of Castamere
- Start date
Gotta give credit where it's due. There are moments in that AJ/Natalya match which are really good. From 1:02 - 1:30 the animation was buttery smooth as they tangled, especially natalya coming out of the headlock. At 4:53, when Natalya goes for a clothesline, AJ's face is unreal. That's the kind of stuff I expected from next-gen. Unfortunately, the rest of the match was the same janky stuff from previous entries.
That match looked horrible. The A.I. was stupid; the table glitched its way out of the ring; when Bryan went through the table it didn't make a noise. As good as the Diva match looked, this one looked as bad.
I saw it as well.

The "tired" pedigree that Trips does is really cool.

I think the only legitimately new animations that made it in this year are of the wrestlers getting tired. Ryback and Batista should be great this year.
It's all about the game and how he played it.
It's all about the controls and if you can take it.
It's all about your debt and if you can pay it.
It's all about pain, and who's gonna make it...

That whole new engine by the masters at Yukes.

Technical geniuses over there that made it happen on this unfamiliar architecture for next-gen platforms.

Fuck. If they leg was above the rope that would be really impressive.
Almost there.
That table, though.
They dumped the legacy code.

Dat selling.
Watched the HHH/Bryan video. It's the same bullshit. Completely. Same awful table physics that sometimes vanish into the mat, sometimes have ropes go THROUGH them, then have to vibrate out, sometimes transport vertically when the wrestler is holding them horizontally, the breaking is completely uniform no matter what angle the wrestler hits it at. Even though just a few years ago, tables would break where you hit them, so if a guy clipped the edge, just that area would break.
Didn't see ANYTHING new in that at all.

If I had a PS4 or XBone that would have just put me off even considering buying the game. Table physics / interaction with ropes is worse than the PS2 games, the breaking tables look awful, and a fucked finish thanks to janky collision detection. This game should still be in beta shouldn't it?

When do we get our public apology from theclosetfan? He promised he would admit if the game turned out bad.

In the Bray Wyatt/Daniel Bryan Last Man Standing match, it looked like DB won with a swinging neckbreaker. Wasn't it back in 10 or 11 that only a finisher or weapon shot would start the count? Kind of disappointing for me. Hopefully Steel Cage matches are better, but I'm not holding my breath.

Well, it definitely isn't revolutionary. Looks pretty darn fun though, can't lie.

Are we calling it already?
I've seen some stuff in this gameplay that is pretty impressive.

that's a pretty shitty looking table in that HHH/Bryan match

I was really hoping the commentary was going to be improved, especially after they were talking about King and Cole recording it together and them revamping it but it seems as terrible as ever

I think commentary usually has its own volume slider.

I think it's tied into something else that's why I never turn it down.

Finish is terrible. We know that's not who would win.

There was a game made by Yukes.
They bestowed it on you little pukes.
Theclosetfan said it was great.
He used its gameplay trailer to masterbate.
He called the crawling mechanic revolutionary.
While dressed in a pink tutu like Rock in the Tooth Fairy.
He claimed the engine was brand new.
Obviously something in his head was askew.
On November 18th he will be at the midnight release.
While the rest of us look at the game like Zandig and yell JEEEEEEEZUS.

Are you watching videos that no one else has seen?
The game is a pile of burning trash, it's a pure cash grab. Don't give them money for fuck all.
hahaha, that was great.

Well, at least Austin's model looks decent for the first time in 10 years. This is offset by his lack of entrance attire and specific moves that were taken out several iterations ago.

Any realistic possibility that Yukes will not be touching next year's game?
I had hope with 2K things would be different. I'm positive they have at least know how fans dispise Yukes by now. We really need a different team/vision for a wrestling game. I would even take a modern TNA game at this point.

2K15 is still using their engine, so I highly doubt it. I could see them getting phased out over time though.

I haven't seen any improvements in fact they've taken shit out of the game. Just play 2K14 and pretend it's new, that's what they've done.

SMH. If there's one move you don't fuck up, it's the AA Spinebuster.

I was thinking about getting 2k14 again myself.

Sticking with 2K14 as well. With the no custom diva or story creator options my interest in this game has reached its lowest point. Not going to get it when it's $9.99 either. Will probably just watch some streams of the career mode when it's out.
Also lol at the over one billion new lines of commentary or whatever it was they were trying to sell us. The commentary is 95% identical to 2K14.
