Improvements for SVR 2010

[kentarulez]

What would you imporve for SVR 10??

I'd make the Create a Finishers look less robotic if possible, however as it was a first attempt.... it was a good addition. Also in th RTWMs have stories for if you lose the match too, that can add new twists and turns to the story.

I realise these were minor things in the game, but they were running through my mind so I decided to vent.

How do you guys feel about possible improvements??

[taylorjt13]

keep RTWM mode and create a finisher then pretty much just make the game identical to the 2008 version....2009 is missing so much from 08 its like a step down e.g.

-cant go outside the ring area at all, at least in 08 u could go in crowd.

-09 career mode is dull and lifeless, 08 had stories and you could use money and spare time as you saw fit

-bring back 07's challenge's, some of these added an actual bit of a challenge to an otherwise simple game

however i would keep all achievements offline, as i feel SVR is best online for playing against friends and not for competitive play due to mainly boosting for achivements

[xI DaR3DeViL Ix]

Would rather it be called: World Wrestling Entertainment and have DLC's forever then be a year add on.

Things to add:

Career mode with story
Online Co-Op Career mode with story
New RTWM
Weekly DLC (1 superstar a week for say 80mp) (New story mode etc)

Whatever needs improving at points, such as graphic improvements etc, surely could be done as game updates.

[UNDERWALLY]

Yeah Daredevil is right, those would be cool tips, but I'd say a monthly 1 OR 2 DLC superstars, (of course this is not possible, cause THQ is sooooo lazy, the most LAZY OF THEM ALL). Also:

-Fix Elimination Chamber: In the ring you can't clib the turnbuckles, that's so stupid!!, you have to climb like a monkey the strcture then go on top of the chambers, all that just to use a flying move.
- Create A Finisher: Ok this mode SHOULD BE REMOVED totally form the next game or ALLOW ALL TYPE OF FINISHERS (from the back, SUBMISSIONS, turnbuckle) but personally it'd probaly suck, again, cause THQ sucks.
- Where the heck are the submissions??????- In SvsR07 there were all type of cool submission moves, mexican armbreaker, guillotine-ddt, etc.., and in this game, jsut NO submissions at all, and the cool FINISHERS submissions like HBK's leg lock, or Hell's gate are not treated as submissions hold, they just apply it a bit and break it, it's stupid, when have we seen Taker apply the Hell's gate, and then out of nowhere, breaks it and pins the opponent

-RTWM - This mode is great, but there should be more twists in the story and more choices, like in past games, which leads to
-Locker Room- Remember the Locker Room in 07, it was great, cutomizable, very popular I think, and with the challenges (remember 'Beat Khali with Mickie James)
- Money- Unlock the ability to buy the superstars by winning bonus in RTWM, in the WWE Shop, You can manage your money, buy outfits, superstars, and all type of things for your Locker Room (like in 07-08)
- NO MORE LAZY THQ! - AN EXAMPLE: ALL of the superstars in the game have two TAG TEAM moves (i mean the developers just were too lazy to give them 4 moves each) out of 4, this measne they just repeated a move two times (Example: Jeff has: Extreme Leg Drop, Poetry in Motion, Extreme Leg Drop, Poetry in Motion) if the game is all about tag teams they could've given 4 DIFFERENT MOVES to each superstar

And there are more terrible mistakes of lazyness in the game that I could keep listing, and I will

Terrible Tag team IA, very few tag team entrances for trios, no tag team entrance for IMPORTANT tag teams like Miz &Morrison, The managers should be more invloved in the match, grabbing opponent feets, or moving the ropes,etc.., the commentaries are terrible and repetitive, the 'winning' video sucks, and are repetitive and are bad, Standing TAGTEAM Finishers (not just corner) , It should be easier to hit the referee like in past games, I could give the ref a Big Boot while aiming for my opponent, and it was easier, now it's very difficult, Running Signatures or Finihsers should be easier to execute, it's so hard to use a BBoot or a ClotheslinefromHell, cause you have to be very accurate. DAMN and there's more

[Golden138]

I'd go back to the 06 version..

[wild dog]

Remember in the old Smackdown (ps1 etc) games you could fight anywhere ? like you just whipped you opponent into say a door and it go into the GM office or backstage etc. Id wish they'd bring that back cos it was amazing, I remember in one of them you could whip the guy all the way outside, then onto a subway which would take you to an area with a wwe shop etc, It was really cool

They should also bring in an online royal rumble cos now that they have fixed the online quiting i.e when someone quits they become a bot, well it could be you watch till your turn then when you get put out it takes you back to the menu. Now that be pretty cool.

Also this is my biggest upset, have you done the glitch where you go out the map ? well do it on the tribute to the troops arena and look at how much wasted space there is, there is non stop roads, random lamp posts, huts etc. Now why did they put all that shit in when we are never going to see it. They could have used the coding for other things in the game, complete waste !

[my_box_72]

1. Bring back challenge's
2. Fight in the crowd
3. More interactive moves with the surrounding area
4. More Achievements
5. RTW lots more storylines and Unlockables
6. More Create-a-finishers moves
7. More Ladder and Tables moves
8. Better and more Royal Rumble moves and interaction and way's to elimate..and challenging now its to easy Needs drastic change
9. Updated highlight reel ...
10. Instant replay .when you perform a awsome move
11. More lines in commentary (was the best this year..better then previous ones)
12. There should be a Career and general manager mode mixed with text storylines and some cut-scenes
13. Improvements needed to keep the game fresh

Oh yeah, I remember Smackdown 2 for PS1. it was great, you could even Creat a Taunt, also like u mentioned, the hardocre/falls count anywhere was amazing, you could go to the street, the bar, you could be hit by cars lol, you could go to WWF New York, a restaurant, bacstage the entrance, entrance ramp, god it was great

[I iMaTrix I]

Yeah, totally agree! Loved the way you could go anywhere and pretty much destroy everything..
That's definately something they should bring back, at the very least they should let us fight in the crowd. Been disappointing that we haven't been able to to that this year.

I'd also like to see more legends featured on the game, even if we have to unlock them somehow. Would be good to see te old familiar faces again, be great in re-creating some of the historic matches.

Possibly another improvement they could make, don't know if anyone's with me here, but i wouldn't mind seeing a few template faces in the CAW that resemble old school wrestlers so that we could have fun in bringing back the oldies for our own enjoyment.
Think that could be a nice touch.

(:

[Murkage]

They Should Include In 2010 :
No more online glitches (Example:Freeze glitch, Crowd Glitch)
Royal rumble online (That would be Hardcore)
Newer superstars (Jack Swagger, etc)
Co-op Online is a good idea

Dont think we will ever get legends in the S vs R games again seemings how they are now making legends of wrestlemania games, Its just a way to get our money by making you buy 2 games, one for current wrestlers and one for legends.

[I iMaTrix I]

I know what you mean, it's not on that we have to buy a whole seperate game just to get old school legends like hulk hogan and that... it says nothing for those SVR fans who have been there since the days of Smackdown 1 & 2 and have followed the game sicne the outset.

We shoud get rewards for being avid fans of the game instead of having to buy a whole new game just for a few poxy legends

:P

[Schumi_Fan]

1: I think they should do something with the camera's outside the ring, because when you try to get your opponent onto the announce table its quite hard when the camera is looking at your players backside.

2: More moves outside of the ring, e.g. smash your opponent onto the HD set where the big WWE logo is.

3. A small thing, but when they make their entrance before the match, they look like they walked from the left hand side, when the curtain is middle/right side.

[phreekclown6]

i have no idea where to start... i have been playing wrestling games from back when WWF Royal Rumble came out for the Sega Genesis. and i have played every wrestling game that was made sence then. if anything SvR 2010 in the camara angles,replays,and weapons should be like how it was in WWF Wrestlemania 2000 or No Mercy for the N64 (Best Wrestlings games in my mind). Camara Angles because in those games the angle was always right. Replays. Sure in WM2000 and No mercy they only replayed the endding but it still was sometype of replay. and Weapons. in WM2000 you could use a chair as many times as you see fit untill you dropped it. this used to be true for the smackdown series as well right up till Smackdown Vs Raw 2006 i do beleave when they made it after 4 hits the chair is not useable anymore. i mean i have been watching wrestling for a long time. and i have seen stone cold go crazy with those chairs and hit anyone around hit atleast 10 or more times and he still was swinging. so for that im really just saying...dont make the chairs unusealbe after only 4 hits. and the tables.. once you put them thru the table u should be able to use half of the table as a weapon. that takes care of that minor part for 2010.

Now on to what alot of you are talking about backstage area's.. If alot of you are true smackdown series fans then you all would know that Smackdown Shut your Mouth was the most interactive on of them all. in you could walk around backstage and talk to the guys in the back.. start fueds back there all during story mode. and there were still kick ass cut scenes. there was 20+ backstage areas that you could bring your battles to. and on top of that if you ever wanted to finish your opponet for good.. you could have 5 finishers saved backthen and just distory them in the middle of the ramp/stage. then you could climp to the top of the fist.(if you did it right you were able to climp all the way to the WWF logo above the fist) and you could hit your ultiment flying finisher from the top of that. So it would be awesome if they made the arena more interactive. like for certian PPV Arenas there will be a load of tables below and you could lay your opponet on them and climp to the top of the Tron and fly putting you and your opponet thru them. as we have seen Shane McMahon,Mick Foley,and Jeff Hardy do so many times.

They need to improve the CAW..add more detailed coustoms.. I mean i create someone with a black shirt.. it ether turns out a dark grey. or just Pure black. make the shirts move free and look more like the real thing.maybe add more hair styles aswell or make so we can edit the hair more like if we wanted to create some one with blue red and green hair you cant..so that would be a cool improve ment. And how about making it so we can have to different color eyes. every new smackdown game that comes out sence kane as unmasked i have created a masked kane. and i think its stupid that we cant have his one eye white and the other brown.

I thing 2010 should have a GM type mode that is more relistic. like shows you walking around the back..when you want a fued to start a scene comes up with those 2 wrestlers and then you come out telling them they have a match then there you go.. i just think it should be more realistic.

Create a Finisher. i think this was an awesome installment. But you really couldnt create your finisher. i think we should have more free hand in that section of the game. like for me.. i have a finisher that i thought up and i call it the hell driver. its basically a backwords tombstone (you set them up in an alabama type slam and then you drop to your knee's dropping them on there head) i would have loved to created that in the game but couldnt cause there isnt any alabama slam start on it..so make it more interactive so we as fans can experiment more on that section.

Create an Enterance. I remember on Raw 2 for the Xbox. You could change the color of each light that flashed. you were able to controll when the light flashed. you could have more then 1 firework in the same area of the enterance. for example. you could have a raw starting show pyro then to end it your could put in chris jerichos pyro. as for the camara angles i think we should be able to controll the camara where ever we want it. with the move of the joy stick you could pick the exact spot you want the angle to be at.

Bring back the sleeper that was in 06 and i think it was in 07. every star had it all you did was pick your opponet up so there sitting on there butt. then you pushed down on the Dpad or now it would have been on the right analog stick and instead of pinning your opponet you would do a sleeper hold and the ref would do the arm drop 3 times. and if your opponet's hand dropped for the 3rd time the ref would ring the bell that was the way to knock out your opponet. it really only worked when your opponet's body was 80% or more red. but still it was fun to see how many times you could win that way.. i only one once with that move and it was when i beat ric flair.but bring that back in the 2010 installment.

The DLC.. DONT FUCKEN MAKE PS3 EXCLUSIVES like for 2009. For example the following DLC you will not see on the Xbox 360.
Kelly Kelly - holiday costume (EXCLUSIVELY ON PS3)
Maria Santa - holiday costume (EXCLUSIVELY ON PS3)
Masked Kane - alternate attire (EXCLUSIVELY ON PS3)
MVP - alternate attire (EXCLUSIVELY ON PS3)
Edge - alternate attire (EXCLUSIVELY ON PS3)

All of them are going to only be for the PS3.which really what does that leave us.. well this is what that leaves us.
Evan Bourne - playable Superstar
Ted DiBiase - playable Superstar
Charlie Haas - playable Superstar
Chris Jericho - alternate attire

WOW that makes me just want to buy the package if it ever comes out on the market place. This hole thing with the PS3 exclusive bull shit is for the fucken birds..i didnt buy the xbox 360 because it was the cheapest. i bought it because it was the better out of the 2. SO FUCKEN PUT OUT DLC THAT THE PS3 AND XBOX 360 PLAYERS CAN HAVE.

There so much more that i could say and probley will in a later post. but for now i need to stop before i get banned cause that PS3 bull shit pissed me off.

[Mark3983]

They need to change on how you get eliminated on the royal rumble. If you get thrown over twice and grappled your history. Possibly change it up to where you can fill your meter back up. I am getting tired of being elimated by Kendrick and Santino all the time. And if you get double teamed on the first try forget about it.

Also, maybe keep win/lose standings with rankings you can adjust for each belt division.

Make your own pay-per-views.

More entrance songs to choose from on CAW's.

[Midnight Malice]

They should make online leagues. maybe have 30 players per league set up by a gm. complete with champions and ppv's. It would have to be a close group of players to make it run the right way, but imagine what a virtual wwe league could be like. setting up alliances, jumping people during matches, ect... it would be a pain to program... for THQ, maybe they should give the Liscence to a better developer? WWE games could be soooooo much better. Hell, I think even EA could make a better game than the SD vs Raw series. I miss WM2000 and No Mercy, I know that was THQ too but it was so much better.

[Dark Cell NZ]

One thing I'd add would be back in Smackdown 1 and I think 2 you could crate your own PPV's and literaly have 5 or 6 titles on the line in one match. I remember having massive battle royals winner takes all.
Also if they did bring back GM mode it'd be cool if they combined it with Story mode (if you choose to) so you can be a wrestler GM. You'd have the "General manager of ____" above your name during enterances and maybe get a whole stable with/against you. I just wish that the people I got/get into the HOF could have the WWE HOF above ther name in intro's.

One thing that really bugs me is when you have a singles title and the tag titles whenever you come to the ring in a tag match you always wear the tag title. I think you should wear the singles title unless your coming to the ring with you tag champ partner.

[Sinester84]

1. No more THQ
2. Make PS gamers wait two months (and counting) for their patches and DLC
3. Entrance theme/video lirary of past superstars available for download ($1 each)
4. More communication between Yukes/THQ and WWE to make a better current roster.
5. Every popular move/finisher (miss the crossface and headbutt)
6. Wigs for CAWs (to make a good Goldust)
7. Some extra CAW slots for divas/managers
8. Fight in the crowd
9. More interactive moves with the surrounding area
10. GM Mode
11. More Create-a-finishers moves
12. More Ladder and Tables moves
13. More SS Submissions
14. Weight detection (No more Mysterio manhandling Big Show, and no ability restriction because of the weight.)
15. Ability to climb turnbuckle in each type of game
16. Steady flow of DLC
17. Attitude era stars as unlockables (they are the reason WWF beat WCW).
18. Legends of Wrestlemania import/export ability
19. Ability to change featured superstars attires
20. Abilty to manage CAW attributes completely (not a standard 80 or 90).
21. Divas wrestle in every type of game and win any title (Exhibition match only)
22. Big 30-50 man/woman battle royal (like WCW vs nWo Revenge)
23. Random fan interference
24. Masked Kane alt. attire

If they get 90% of those, I will buy another THQ wrestling game.

[mellowknight]

What I'd like to see improved:

1. Fix the Elimination Chamber glitch and please add entrances to the Elimination chamber match.
2. Do away with Create-a-Finisher
3. Royal Rumble needs to be fixed/adjusted, seems a little out-dated to irish whip your opponent near the ropes and grapple to eliminate.
4. ECW Extreme Rules Match should be playable with any arena in Exhibition mode.
5. If DX is in the next game, their tag finisher should be Sweet Chin Music into a Pedigree (a la what Triple H and HBK did to Kenny Dykstra in 2006). As a matter of fact, most of the animations for the tag finishers are really outdated. That should be fixed
6. In tourney mode, if the bracket includes a champion, the player should have the option to choose any arena for the "VS Champion" match instead of being forced to play at Wrestlemania.
7. Career mode feels like a few steps back. I really liked 2008's career mode. All titles on a given show should be available to the player. For instance, if I choose Randy Orton and I choose to play on RAW for the year, all titles on RAW should come into play at some points during my career mode romp.
8. Attiritibute distribution for CAWs were horribly executed this year, one of the reasons I didn't bother to keep any CAW I made. That needs to be revamped quick.
9. Lastly, where was Randy Orton's RTWM?? haha

[Tom Welsh]

Should be able to do extreme rules matches in any arena, i hate being limited to certain weapons when your not in an ecw arena.

[Killahaseo]

well i think they should get rid of the camera angles when you go out side the ring id like it better if it was like the old games where it didnt do that special camera and still did the bird eye view thing

[raptor_256]

1. they need to improve the out of ring camera angles. it really doesn't need to change from a normal match except to expand.

2. fix finishers. for the most part i liked this. my biggest issue was the swinging shoulder cutter impact didn't follow the swinging shoulder cutter move. also it's be nice to be able to do finishers from other positions too (like behind, turbukle, submissions etc.)

3. more submission moves that actually submit the opponent.

4. fix weight classes! rey shouldnt be able to lift big show!

5. royal rumble ultimate grapple eliminations.

6. make all 4 directions strong grapples. then click right stick for ultimate grapple.

7. create-a-finisher for signature moves, but reduced to 3 moves instead of ten.

8. create-a-taunt.

9. masked kane!

10. royal rumble elimination fixed.

11. use the button mini game from TNA iMPACT rather than current push stick in any direction and hold until they tap or break hold. could also be used for RR elimination

12. option to edit weapons available under ring

13. being able to create own entrance vidio for screen, as you could in RAW 2 for xbox.

14. more backstage and transition stages, with interactive spots. the backstage and locker room brawls had no interactive hot spots, plus i liked the idea of going from the ring to backstage to backstage area 2 to outside etc.

15. more interactive season/RTWM/career modes. being able to make choices each week rather than once or twice in the whole mode. even if it was as simple as who to face/ start rivalry with.

[Oz Fixiation]

1. No more using playlist as songs for entrances.

2. Weight detection.

3. Better career mode like in 08.

4. Weekly or Bi weekly DLC.

5. Submission holds are just that. SS are cool but I want to make people tap out to Back tazzmission 2.

6. Smoother and better CaF. (some of the moves just don't transition well in to each other.)

7. A better CaE. (Maybe add a Create a motion for your entrance.)

8. Bring back create a taunt.

9. More options for Ultimate grapples.

10. Create a Finisher should not be limited to front grapple only.

11. More parts for CAW....Capes were a great touch this year.

12. Croud Fighting.

13. In a hardcore match, go anywhere you want like in Smackdown 3.

14. Bring back the parking lot and the cool finishers like in 08...putting the in the hearst or garbage truck for the win..

15. Punjabi prison.

16. Gm mode must make a comeback.

17. Better stat distribution for CAW.

18. Attitude era wrestlers.

19. Better stats for wrestlers... the Miz is a low 70. Charisma should not be the dominant stat.

20. Stable ratings... DX at 96 and Miz and Morrison at 85, for example.

That's my two cents.

[Monkala]

Divas in other matches!!! I'm sick of having to pick a male manager if I have a no DQ match, and my wife is sick of only being able to have one match type.

[MrJamie]

Bring back General Manager Mode!!!!!

[wihoas85]

i'd just like to see them make it where you can set your caws own attributes. cause it gets boring going through career mode 50 times to boost. i like to build a wcw faction and buiding takes forever and if an update does come for 09' having every caw at 90 overall or whatever is pretty dumb

[Jabbawocky]

Let someone else other than THQ make it and give it a fresh start.

[jamiroquai]

It would be cool if you could choose the era you want to have a career mode in e.g Attitude Era, Monday Night Wars, the Golden Age or the SvR years. Should also be able to import legends onto the SvR game, i mean its only fair for the ones who dont like the control system (not me, i like the arcady style). Create a finishers a fantastic idea and they could improve it by making it a more complex system, adding more moves, and breaking it down into the following categories: arial manoeuvres, ground holds, front groggy, back groggy and submission... id love to create my own submission... SS of course, they seriously need to make every submission an SS.

[l Absolution l]

I'm still waiting to see if they will ever add a massive gallery of new and old themes to choose from for created wrestlers, such as The Brood, etc. They own the rights, so I do not see a problem there.

[enigmatic1208]

things would make the next game better

1. Agreed with the online royal rumble that would be immense
2. online tournaments (not sure if they do that already)
3. more challenging achievements like what 07 had, some of them took some effort.
4. improved season mode, lets be more creative like your character not winning the wwe championship in less than a year. i did like the co-op season mode though

just a couple of foughts i think could help
