Dynamic Wrestler Styles Thread

[That Crazy Guy]

HURRAH I BEAT YOU ALL TO IT!

I like the feature, makes it good to see wrestlers develop over time and such. Good addition.

[Thriller]

A good idea, hopefully in 07 I will play longer games, I tend to play and then want to start a new one so its quite rare that I get past a year .

[Remianen]

Man, Adam should join the World Poker Tour. He's pulling full houses and royal flushes out of thin air!

[panix04]

if he was still doing Friday features - this could have been one of them, i love to see the game world evolve and develop and this coupled with the scan that makes sure there is always enough staff in the game will really help that. If i was wearing one i would take my hat off to you Adam.

Eh I am not too fond of this. Im not against this or for it. To me it doesn't really matter. Im glad you guys like it though so Adam you get props for making these fine people happy.

An interesting feature to be sure.

The idea that wrestlers change their style over the course of a year is an amazing step forward, however I'm worried about the potential impact on mods. For instance, in 1993, Chris Benoit was a Super Junior and his stats would reflect that. I'm just worried that because of his low entertainment (Mic) skills he would never be picked up by any of the bigger North American companies. But to be honest that's a minor gripe.

Nope I'm on board with this one on a big scale, should make the game suitably more challenging.

A great and much-needed feature. Thumbs up.

This is a great feature and adds even more realism to the game. Austin was once a talented technician but he evolved into more of a brawler as time went on and plenty of high fliers change into technicians and the like after they are grounded by injury. Now I don't know if injuries will affect a worker's evolution but I still like the idea that, through selective booking, you can perhaps train some people to be a better fit in your roster.

This is a great feature. Now I can develop an army of spot monkeys to rule the world.

[Dorian]

Well, this was much needed. Glad to know that I can build a star from a brawler and try to make him more of a complete wrestler. I always liked trying to do that.

Awesome new's! I like doing things like that too Dorian. I will make worker's with one GREAT Stat, although different from the other one, and watch them grow in it overtime.

Cool, thanks for adding this feature. It's kind of of funny, the original premise of my topic was incorrect, but it eventually evolved into talking about this feature. I figured you were already adding this feature; it's cool that you released the info now. Thanks.

Beyond the advantages I posted about it before, there are two I didn't think about, the fun of training wrestlers into different styles, and that it will auto-fix wrestlers that modders gave the wrong style. Not that they would ever do that or anything.

[djthefunkchris]

Or fix mistakes I make on the worker's I make myself, lol:-)

[rajde]

How will this affect big men? For example could Kevin Nash become a spot monkey? I mean in real life that just couldn't happen.

[chuckyboy5]

For me there would have to be alot of restrictions on this for me to like it. I'm thinking we're going to see guys like Big Show turn into cruiserweight style after having alot matches with Rey Mysterio or The Rock turn into a Hardcore wrestler, or The Sandman turn into a Technical wrestler. I think there should be caps on wrestlers potenial abilty in certain kinds of wrestling, because clearly a guy like Big Show will never have 100% flying abilty, or even 20% flying ability. I just think if this isn't implemented carefully we could see a few weird changes that wouldn't make sense in the real world.
