So I was thinking about the roster/single player mode this year again... Does the Ultimate Warrior being a pre-order exclusive strike anyone else as odd? I mean, Mike Tyson was hardly essential to the Attitude roster as far as in ring competitors go. Warrior seems like he would HAVE to be in there (like Hogan) for either a Golden Era or Best of All Time/History of the WWE title mode to me... I don't know, maybe I'm overestimating his importance during that time, but he seems like a pretty damn big name to be pre-order only. There was someone who hinted at the fact that Warrior would still be playable in "other modes" other than Exhibition, etc if you don't Pre-Order, I believe.

The rock & Stone COLD (& I Think bret heart ) has been dlc pre order Yeah, but not when vital to the story mode, which means the "Golden Era Mode" may not be what they're going for after all. Exactly, How can you not do Hogan vs. Warrior or Savage vs. Warrior in a Golden Era Mode?

Warrior was the number 2 or 3 guy in the time they may be basing story mode on.

I get what you mean, Dat guy ova der, but also rememeber that the Rock was the pre-order DLC for '12. While he didn't factor into the RTWM or any other main mode, he was definitely a big deal as part of the roster goes. We'll have to see which way it goes.

Warrior is on the disc so there's always a chance you could still play him in the mode, but not in the actual game if you don't have the pre order code.

Just like how Mike Tyson was in AE Mode at the WM14 Main Event. Same thing will happen here most likely with Warrior like the guy from GamerHub said. "Pre-Ordering lets you play as him outside the scripted areas of the game."

I guess that makes sense, I hadn't thought about him only being playable in the story or whatever.

Can you assign on-disc DLC themes to customs and upload them? The year Austin was the pre-order bonus, I bought it for him when I could've got it for half the price without. I remember then searching and seeing community creations that were so much better than the THQ one and they had his music/video, but maybe they only showed up because I already had them unlocked?
Basically, people will make better Warriors than that LOWM copy and paste that 2K are using (which has ensured I won't pre-order, most likely). Will they be able to use Warrior's music (if theory pre-ordered)? It's not a huge deal, I can always just put the music on myself.

No. They are DLC components and you have to have that specific DLC to be able to download a CC that uses them. I don't know why you're saying Warrior is C&P, he's clearly much different than the LOWM one. People only say it's a C&P 'cause of the attire. I'd also be willing to put dollars to doughnuts that no one will create a Warrior that looks as much like him as the pre-order bonus

I just wish they would start releasing more info or screenshots. Assuming they follow the footsteps and the roster reveal is SummerSlam weekend then the entire roster will be known in a months time. Didn't we have much more info/pics this time last year?

Didn't we have much more info/pics this time last year? we had a leaked roster via RyanCE.. though we didn't have a couple guys on there like APA, John Cena '04, Kevin Nash, etc. I don't know exactly if we'll have any other roster info until SummerSlam, but we do know a good chunk of the roster via the Cover Contest.

Actually we knew about APA and Nash. The ones we didn't know were Johnny Ace, JBL, Current Edge, Current Lita and Cena 04.

Also because the only feasible explanation for an in-game wrestler looking that bad in 2013 is that it's copy and pasted from an early build of a game from... Actually, even 2009 is a stretch. It's probably from Smackdown Here Comes The Pain. Oh well, I'll just upload a track of Warrior's music for a created wrestler. I really hope that this time next year we're looking forward to a game that's actually new.

I don't enjoy Here Comes The Pain. The current games are better. Essentially, what we're playing now is that same game with almost ten years of little tweaks. I'd like to think we'll get a genuinely new game next year when the next-gen consoles are in full swing, but we didn't with the 360/PS3 generation.

One thing that is desperately, desperately needed is a VASTLY improved outside fighting system. I would love for moves on the ramp to inflict more damage and a more intense "selling" animation from the recipient. The thing that I want most however is to make it more interesting. Fighting outside has been boring forever! Last year they finally added the barricade spear, which was an excellent start. Now they need to add more. Increase the number of hot spots such as the tron, lights, and even the soundboard. Most of all, make appropriate use of the ramp. Throwing someone off of the ramp should be an OMG moment. Fighting outside should be brutal, not just a duller extension of fighting in the ring. This is especially the case in last man standing or i quit matches.
Also it is pathetically easy to make someone bleed. I would rather work for it than have it happen in every match and long before the finish.

Popped in WWE '13 for the first time in months and did Daniel Bryan vs. Eddie Guerrero on Epic with Hard difficulty. I adjusted the sliders before the match and it made it more challenging and fun. Most fun I had with the game in a while.
But back to 2K14: I know the game won't have huge improvements, but I hope these one are in for this next installment or at least 2K15 after having my match (Some maybe already addressed for 2K14)
- More 2 counts: Of course the #1 issue people had in matches. Even though I got a couple of 2 counts, all the 1 counts made my match less "dramatic".
- A.I with finishers: Every time the A.I had a finisher, instead of using it they would Irish whip me to the outside and try to attempt an OMG Moment.
- Submissions: I like the limb targeting and Breaking Point systems, but I hope they add in the option to either keep the submission hold in or let go if there's a rope break.
- Speaking of rope breaks: instead of automatic rope breaks, have there be a rope break bar in the pin meter. It could be a larger bar than the rest and could save you like resilience but could be used more than once
If I hear good things about 2K14, I'll probably give it a chance.

I like the rope break idea! Sort of like when you reverse a pin, good thinking. I'd like the wrestler to actually grab the rope like they used too.

Yeah, I really, really like that rope break idea too. I'd say the closer you are to the ropes, the larger it should be on the pin meter. Obviously, once you're a certain distance away (to where it wouldn't be plausible to reach them with you hand or foot) then it should no longer be there.
