Has anyone who bought the 40 years of WM version been screwed out of the Nightmare Family and Deluxe add ons? They're supposed to be included and both packs are missing. After springing for the most expensive version of the game possible, I'm a bit on the dissatisfied side I didn’t buy that version but when I went to get my copy at GameStop there were quite a few people whose orders didn’t come in the 3 days earlier which was part of that games package. So this was their second trip to GameStop to pick up their game only to be told none of the GameStops in our region received the 40 years set yet. And the best they could do for them was tell them to cancel their orders then order it off the website and ship it to their houses. It was a major cluster.

Holy , showcase mode is so annoying so far. I think I might hate this game lmao. I'm stuck on warrior vs rude because it won't let me do the stupid piledriver signature. Warrior also beats the crap out of me so quickly and Rude moves so slow. He also rolls out of the ring about 5 times per match attempt after getting knocked down.

Some of the wording of the objectives is so odd too, I’ve completed matches too early because the objective makes it sound like I need to submit someone to win. Very frustrating. Love/Hate this game so far. Enjoyed ‘22 a hell of a lot more so far.

Love/Hate this game so far. Enjoyed ‘22 a hell of a lot more so far. This may also be me being knit picky but I hate when normal game AI mechanics change the outcome of a historic match. I slammed Andre as Hogan and he kicked out of the leg drop after. Then Bobby Heenan threw a kendo stick into the ring. It’s not the end of the world for enjoying the game it just seems goofy. I’ve done a few exhibition matches and there are aspects of the gameplay I like. I like the punching and the combos/block system. I missed out on it because I didn’t really play ‘22 much. I still need to get better at it but I might just go into universe mode.

Holy I finally beat Rude/Warrior in showcase. I don’t get why they would assign multiple specials and finishers using the same button combo. If you don’t tap RT and X light enough, you do a submission instead of a pile driver. And it’s the same thing with rude awakening. Showcase definitely gets more fun though. I had fun playing as warrior, piper/bret and HBK/Hall ladder match. Austin/bret has been a lot of fun too but I haven’t finished it yet.

I think I might be the only person who noticed this, the Firefly Funhouse footage, specifically the old school SNME opening, they blurred out Terry Funk.

I'm on Bret - Piper showcase and something I've been experiencing in all the showcase matches but Piper is taking it to a new level Most every time I attempt a move(running attack, punch, grapple hold) Piper will just overtake me in a grapple hold. I'm countering almost every time he tries to do another move but it's getting super ing annoying trying to get through the objectives. He just automatically overtakes me. I rarely deal with this in play mode matches, no matter the match type. The showcases shouldn't annoying. It should be a fun play through of history. It is, but these quirks are still annoying as sht

I think I stopped playing Showcase after the Lynch, Rousy, Flair triple threat match. That’s when it got too frustrating for me. lol
Although I haven’t played it or anything else over the last 4 days because of no time to sit down and enjoy it.

Way too aggravating.

Showcase is just a grind and complete for me at this point. Set the difficulty as low as it'll go and just plow through.

Yeah showcase needs either completely dropping or a complete overhaul if I’m honest. It’s not fun.
I’m not entirely convinced I’m enjoying 2k24. 22 was a good foothold to be built upon but apart from throwing weapons I’m not sure what’s evolved.
The focus (much like FIFA and some live service games) is the card based guff of which I have zero interest. If next years unlockable content is more tied into all the stuff I’m not bothered about then I think that’s me done with 2k.
Oh and bring back a proper version of superstar threads that actually works and doesn’t end up being horrible. If No Mercy on the n64 can have multiple attires for the same character without causing issues why can’t this?

Showcase mode has too many tedious objectives. I also don't think it would kill them to give us a checkpoint here and there or at least let us skip the Corey Grave narration cutscenes sooner when we have to restart.
I've been playing a few more exhibition matches and now that I have a better handle on the controls, I do enjoy the gameplay. I turned down the sliders for the ring out/roll out frequency and that helped my matches flow better. I don't mind that feature still happening once or twice in a match but with the default settings, it was happening to me about 5-7 times per match.

Dipped into showcase today, man that is fun. I encountered one bug in the Austin-Hitman match but other than that it's solid. Got to Angle-Eddie before I paused for now. Excited to continue though.

there are hidden things in the files coming out that are implying that some stars left out were planned but removed/not added or moved to DLC
some were released last year

I started universe mode. Excited to dive into it even though I’m OCD with customizing things.

Got to the Firefly Funhouse match now in Showcase mode, and honestly, that womens triple threat can go itself. Any multi-man match in this game seems like absolute cancer. But other than that the mode keeps delivering, the transitions between video and gameplay during HBK-Taker was absolutely unreal.
