As long as guys with hair look good for once, I'm in. I'm tired of dudes with straw, broom hair Hair has always been something Yikes have struggled with, hell I honestly do not think it looks that much better now that it did back in Smackdown on the PS1. YOu could even argue that some characters such as those with a hairline like Shawn Michaels look even worse! So I am very interested to see how much better the character models look now. Also the worst thing about My Career was the way they tried to make it real. Keep it all kayfabe and it will be much more fun. It's funny that you mention that, I ripped a model from 2K16 and the hair was modeled in the exact same way as it were in Smackdown 2. There are some unique elements to their current way of modeling (strands of hair and such) but they haven't really changed their methods at all. As a matter of fact, I believe someone on one of the other WWE Games forums pointed out that the hair for some of the guys is modeled identical to how it was in Smackdown VS RAW 2006, just with more polygons and texture mapping.

I was thinking about getting the Nintendo Switch for Christmas this year, so WWE 2K18 being on it gives me another reason, even though i was always a Sony guy

Kurt Angle is the preorder bonus. Was this already revealed? **Edit** Looks like it was. Must've missed it or forgot about it.

Really hope they fix everything about Universe mode this year.Its a nice concept but over the years it just feels like a broken mode to me.
For an example on how I would want universe mode to be is I want see a blank screen I don't want the roster to be set I don't want the shows to be filled on the calendar everything needs to be blanked.I don't want the computer to automatically set the matches and feuds(I know you can turn off that option). I want the option to have title matches on raw and Smackdown I want to create everything that happens.
Also we should have the option to have a all men show or women's show some people don't want the women's title on the show and some don't want the men's titles.Like if someone wants a all female show they should have the right to have the women's title,divas title NXT women's title all together the women's roster these past couple of years have been big enough to do that.

I agree. Universe Mode should start with a draft where you set the rosters yourself or against a second player or CPU. I like your idea about having a blank calendar and scheduling shows when you want instead of them being set for you. I also like your idea about the card being blank and making matches from scratch instead of having to change the preset ones. Something that I've always wanted is the ability to choose the winners without having to play all the matches.

I'm assuming the whole concept of Universe mode is to make it feel like your watching a whole episode of Raw and Smackdown but what if I don't want it to feel like I'm watching an episode of Raw? I LOVED story designer mode and I don't understand why they got rid of that it gave me everything I wanted in a wrestling video game.You had the option to create backstage segments,decided who won the match,In ring promo and all that crazy fun stuff.Then you share your story with everyone i used to watch some of those videos on YouTube.

Any idea when we'll see some game play footage? It seems like every year we see less and less before the game comes out

I loved story designer. People came up with some creative segments.

After more than a decade-long hiatus, your Olympic Hero has returned! Pre-order now to receive two playable versions of WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2017 inductee Kurt Angle! Play as his WWE “American Hero” persona (2001) or as his ECW “Wrestling Machine” persona (2006)

With Kurt getting an ECW persona does this mean we could be getting ECW wrestlers this year?

Nah, in a limited Showcase they would probably just have the match between him and Randy Orton at One Night Stand. RVD hasn't been in the game for 3 years, Sabu is in the concussion lawsuit.....who else did he have matches with on ECW, besides the Brooklyn Brawler? lol

Like i said when it was first announced that Angle is the preorder bonus, im so glad he gets a haired version. A small wish of mine would be that if they do a HOF Showcase DLC, I hope they give us Angle vs Edge from Judgment Day 2002.

Im willing to bet that theyll do the same thing they did with thr retro versions of current guys in the game, but then again im not very nitpicky with graphics, outside of the 1999 Big Show, which was literally the 2000 Big Show model with longer hair. Other than that, I never really noticed the graphics. As long as i get a game that im willing to play all year without taking a break, it is what it is

I feel like if he's the pre-order character then there can't be a Kurt Angle Showcase, right? That would imply he's in the game for free, and with prior pre-order characters they were not included in any on-disc modes.
I kind of hope they throw us a swerve though, and do the Brock Lesnar showcase that they couldn't do (because Angle, Hardyz, and Hogan were in limbo) and give us 2003 Kurt Angle on disc. 2003 Kurt Angle is the only attire I seriously wish we were getting, and I'm bummed we aren't. But I'm really hoping that somehow it's included in a showcase mode.
A Kurt Angle showcase mode would be cool but then I feel like they'd be double dipping. That's another way to get more Angle attires in the game though

That's another way to get more Angle attires in the game though Ultimate Warrior was. You got to play him in 1 match against Hogan unless you pre ordered.

Not sure that its confirmed, but theres speculation that the items in the archive building based on the wrestlers means that that wrestler is in the game. I saw on Smacktalks that theres a few items not shown on the trailers, like John Cenas Word Life knucks, Rick Martels arrogance spray, and i forgot the other one. I dont wanna get excited for either one of these inclusions until its confirned, but if theyre in the game, thats awesome
