Does ORC have (WW)ECW?

[sphanlon]

IF so, what's the relationship/interaction like between the 3 WWE brands? Can you program stuff like that in this game, or are they run very separately?

[OTBs Bill Parkman]

Unfortunately, you can only have 2 brands for a promotion it looks like. So it would be Raw as Brand #1 and Smackdown as Brand #2.

i am currently undecided wether to have ECW as a seperate company to the WWE or wether to have 3 seperate companys for raw/SD and ECW. This is a contentious issue as there is no right and wrong way to set up the situation. So i may try both way and sim through it to see what happens in the game world.

3 seperate companies would be best.

[panix04]

thanks HHUK but im going to sim it to see which works out best, i think there are pro's and cons for each method.

[sphanlon]

Well how is it if I use ORC in it's current form? Is ECW not there? I'm not a big fan anyway, just wondering.

[Shocking_Stuff]

i think raw, sd! and ecw are just one company... 3 brands... i don't think set the brands up tho cause i see workers from all 3 at the different shows

[sphanlon]

How can we edit that ourselves if we want? How do you split rosters in wrespi 2? Or do you just have to make all separate companies?

[That Crazy Guy]

You can only have two brands like in TEW, I believe the ECW roster is assigned to the RAW brand at the current state.

To make a brand is simple, and is in the editor. Just make your promotion(or edit the one you want a brand in) and it should be in there.

I think you should do WWE and ECW as different promotions, panix. I think it'll work out best that way.

But my best advice to sphanlon is to download the demo and the mod, go in the editor and see everything himself. ;)

well the game is kayfabe...and as the story goes ECW is not really a brand but a seprate company....whereas raw and sd are still brands...so have 2 brands and ECW as a company but make it like parent company or working relationship

[panix04]

yeah, i think ECW as a seperate company with a working relationship is the way to go, although with the amount of ECW/RAW cross promotional stuff going on atm it would almost make more sense to have smackdown as the seperate company!

I think keep WWE has 2 brands (Raw and Smackdown) and have ECW as a seperate promotion
