WWE '12: Here Comes the Pain 2.

That's the dream.

Best part is when asked what the dev team's #1 objective is, the response was "gameplay".

Nemephosis · 06-06-2011, 07:27 PM

Yup, that's why they removed the Ultimate Control moves and "vastly reduced" the environmental hotspots. Cause DAMN IT, WE'RE FOCUSING ON THE GAMEPLAY. He must have meant that was what they were focusing on destroying this year.

Just now reading the ign article. Trying not to get excited and then disappointed like every year.
But with just the one mention at the beginning of being able to break up a move (finally!!!!),
it's definitely gotten me excited!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but based on what I've read, there is still no return of a weight detection system in 12? So despite pooling all their resources into improving gameplay, I could still play as Rey Mysterio and suplex Big Show?

Ok.

Thats one of the worst trailers I've ever seen since the announcement for Mass Effect 2 coming to PS3

Wait, I thought they mentioned detection in the ign article???
That will be very strange if they revamped everything and didn't put in detection.
That was the main thing that got me excited, but maybe I read it the wrong way. Crap!
They REALLY need that feature!

And they really should have gotten rid of RTWM this year. It's terrible.

Sigh, they don't need to "get rid" of RTWM or Universe mode. They need to vastly improve them. If they went by what some of you guys wanted all we would have is exhibition mode. That might be fine for you guys but I want a lot more than that from a wrestling game.

All I could find on it is this -

Quote:

All that, and there's still more to say. Unless your opponent is really hurting, expect to get just one ground grapple in. The right stick repositions opponents. Animations change based on weight classes. There are new "attach points" for moves so that hands and legs lock to certain points in certain moves and don't clip through bodies. Justin Roberts is here as the ring announcer, King and Cole are confirmed, and Alberto Del Rio's entrance comes complete with Ricardo Rodriguez.

So while it does mention weight classes, it doesn't explicitly state that Wrestler A can't powerbomb Wrestler B or whatever. I've looked at a few reviews and none of them mention anything either, although there are only 4 guys in the E3 demo and they're all heavyweights, so maybe it simply hasn't been shown yet?

Hopefully that quote doesn't mean that the extent of weight detection will consist of a guy taking a while to lift Big Show's leg for a submission or something.

I do like what I've seen of the gameplay, but after emphasising how much change they've brought to the core gameplay of the series, not having weight detection would be absolutely retarded imo.
