Regens

[Hawk1665]

I played WMMA1 and WMMA2 more then I should probably admit. Over multiple saves over both games, one thing was always true. Somehow, the game world would find a way to implode. If it wasn't from AI companies booking themselves to death, AI companies not understanding "prospects", or it was renders not being good enough to maintain world credibility. The game world would slowly die.

I haven't played long enough to comment on the first two, but the third I can already tell: Regenerated fighters in WMMA 3 are such a massive improvement it is staggering.

I'm only in 2000 in my current game and I've already seen more good regens then I have in any of my prior WMMA games. Perhaps combined. And even if the fighter isn't great, they generally have some stat or ability that defines them. A poor fighter who never gives up in fights. A kickboxer with a critical weakness to takedowns. Things like that.

Instead of bemoaning every retiring mid/low level fighter I see, I instead cheer it. Because that means another chance at having another great fighter join the game world. For once it's not a bad thing.

Really? I'm in 2016 in my WMMA2 game and the first of every month is one of the most exciting parts of the game cause I cannot wait to see if it throws any goodies at me. Granted, they are few and far between, but I think maybe 2-6 times a year there comes someone with insane purple or black belts in to the game that after a few fights agaisnt cans can beat the crap out of the champions. I would be happy to provide screens for you if you like :)

My game worlds never exactly imploded, but they did get stale and much less competitive as they moved towards an all-regen situation. I agree that this is a tremendous improvement in this game, you can keep playing indefinitely and have the world stay fresh.
