I hope they make it so in universe more titles are automatically defended on a PLE as it’s annoying when you get to a PLE and the Main event is a random tag team match or a random singles match
They really messed up universe mode in 2K24. It seems it's an afterthought for this year as well, which is disappointing because i personally play that mode the most. I want them to merge it with MyGM and give a full on wrestling show simulation.
What I never understood about the promo’s is how you can program a wrestler to call someone out and then proceed To say the person they called out rudely interrupted them 😂.
They need to fix the current way tired finishers work, currently if the match goes on a while, every finisher you do is a tired finisher and it just ruins so many moves especially since you can never use the pin combos to Sweet Chin Music and Tombstone, also there are times where the player who got hit with a finishet gets up faster than the one who hit it. It needs to always be tied to the stamina gauge or let us turn them off online.
@@Kingbop2472k20 is the reason promo’s got removed lol, sometimes for me the wrestler wouldn’t even say anything. But one time I had John Cena cutting a promo and he just said “You got a lot of nerve to show a lot of nerve to have a lot of nerve, how about we have a match right here right now” it made no sense whatsoever.
Hope we got the freedom to do any high flying move from high points like the barricade, cage, cell, ladder, etc. Like these old games. If u had a Swanton as a regular dive u was able to hit that shit off anything lol
@@raitaylorThat horrible creative director isn't a real wrestling fan and it's obvious in 2k22-2k24. There's way too many restrictions in newer WWE games smh.
Jumping off the barricade looks like the same animation as jumping off the box in a backstage brawl. Hopefully there is more than 5 moves for this profound feature
i'm not complaining but it seems rather hypocritical to critique removing chain grappling as becoming too arcadey but then praise the inclusion of an 8 person backstage brawl like that isn't arcadey as shit.
Loved your video. Easy to follow and a pleasure to watch! To answer one of your questions, I actually like the idea of one mixed MyRise Story. personally, I never felt like beating it twice in previous entries. I've tried, but it started feeling like more work than it was worth. Returning features all sound like a blast though!
The reason they most likely wont bring it back is because people back then use to glitch create a finisher online where they did more damage or just made u glitch out the game🤦♂️
This might be the year we get back camera angles from HCTP rather than the lackluster single camera and occasional additional one. Try comparing a rock botttom in HCTP to 2K24 and you’ll see what I mean.
we need story designer and create a finisher and other match types back and it would be awesome if we had two myrise stories, one for female and one for male
I do like the promos in the games when there’s no voice at all or a voice that’s obviously not the wrestler. Hopefully if they’re bringing back promos, it means that they got the wrestlers to do the voice work.
@ special guest ref matches where you can just set up a chair in the corner and watch your two friends beat each other up are never unimportant or unnecessary
2k23 did kind of had 8 man brawl but it was due to a modded arena that we were able to download from cc. That camera angle for 8 man was almost impossible to see
I really wish in future you could have the option to choose wrestlers that interfer in your matches when you use the run-in ability and what's up with that scene when a wrestler appears behind you and attacks you with a chair and the ref just standing pretending not to see them when he clearly did. I hope they fix this and have wrestlers come from under the ring or in the crowd or maybe have the ref distracted by a manager and have the interference.
Honestly, I wish they'd get rid of the fact that, when doing MyRise they tell you what spots you have to do. I can understand in showcase mode having to do it but why do we have to do it in the MyRise? It makes it feel like we're being told how to play the game instead of actually playing the game how we want to play it.
5:04 I actually enjoyed watching the real life footage during the showcase mode……it actually would bring back memories seeing the real stuff, by taking that away it’s gonna ruin the experience.
All of these are cool but I still hate the fact that the new WWE games lost its comfortable controls. After WWE 2K19 the controls turned into Mortal Kombat, it’s not fun and doesn’t fit WWE games at all. Even the old PS2 games had better controls than WWE 2K22 & WWE 2K24. It’s ridiculous.
I hope we can write ✍️ out our own promos in universe mode. Instead of just picking a pre written text. Cause what the wrestlers say doesn't make any sense.
This is going to be insane since the put in the new game that you can fight females like old times in WWE 2k25, but to be honest, I am just so sick and tired of the showcase, I want the road to WrestleMania back again.
Yeah but now the question is what have they removed and what will be broken? Cutscenes in showcase is much better than the slingshot technology. The slingshot technology sucked.
There is so much things missing again... Look at the ropes dynamics, the moves with a chair like to use it to jump or conchairto or try to break a leg etc so i am not convinced for now... And i am sure there will be no evolution dx etc
But will there be 60fps cutscenes on console? Other sports games have added them but wwe still hasn’t. If theres any year to do it it would be now giving that promos are back and slingshot is gone.
If GM mode was like SVR 06, 07, and 08 there wouldn't be any issues. I liked how you had the hometown hero advantage, match type advantage, and how you could boost your match rating if you played in the match
I really hope commentary makes the return with the revised showcase made because that’s what I hated most about it. The generic music in the background and no commentary while you wrestled was just awkward
In universe mode i want to write my own text on promos (kind of similar to Story Designer from SVR 2010) not choose from like only 4 different preselected options on what the wrestler should say in the promo.
One thing is not clear to me.. Will the Myrise Story be unique to each character or will there be different stories/endings depending on the character chosen? It's an important difference because in one case it would be a big improvement... In the other... well it would get a lot worse. A novelty that I hope sooner or later they will integrate is the possibility of having more than 8 characters in the ring at the same time during the Royal Rumble...
It’s really unfortunate we bullied an entire movie studio to redesign and reanimate their main character, but we allow the predators to thrive in video games.
My biggest problem with WWE 2k24 was some of the graphics more so like the wrestlers hair and the reversal system is just too easy dude unless someone is stunned they can revere the move
I think that if they worked on a way to blend the real dootage and the game mechanics they could create something truely amazing if they had found a way to blend the old wwe logo from the footage somehow it could become seamless oh well something to work on for the future i guess
backstage brawl wont be no different if its the same damn backstage as the last 2 games........bring back going to different areas would be better my rise eh.......kinda the same road to wrestlmania with different wrestlers would of been better back stage.....if they conncect to each other good.....if its one spot and a win for dq only its pointless things that need to be added create a tag team entrance and annoucer name bring back 3 stages of hell and hope guest ref will be for more then 1 on 1 matches
Why not just take away the universe mode and the my faction mode and just use that one huge space to bring back road wrestlemainia because if they do that we can have the modes that we usually play while not having to worry about the game crashing
I don't know if anyone else is sick of this decades long cycle of adding cool features to wrestling games only to remove some of them for no reason the following year and then adding them back in a few years later. As a financial incentive, it's a genius business model, but I'm actually sick to death of it and won't be purchasing anymore wrestling games. They're greedy and could just give us one ace wrestling game to last years, but know they're deliberately not delivering that. The thing that annoys me as well is the inaccuracies of the move sets you have to spend hours swapping around for individual wrestlers because they're random and not much thought or care has gone into them, not all your favourite wrestlers are there, so you have spend more hours on community mods, entrance music etc. I can't keep giving up that much personal time making these games into what the company should in the first place. I'm done, 2K24 is my last one.
They need to take some extra time, so the game isn't busted upon release. All this seems like something 2K would have trouble with to complete within the timeframe.
All new features 2k? Same marketing that announce new things THAT ARE NOT. Pretending to be something that no one ever seen, but is all returning features. They are awful.
I'm not hyped everything looks the same I don't care about online trash at all I just want weapon physics from svr 2011 and more stuff in universe mode and gm mode also let me creat a tig ol bitty female wrestler if I want 2k is trash 🗑️
So much of sports games is removing features just to bring them back like they're new.
It's pathetic
Different developers than before
@ No excuse, it's still the same line of WWE games
@@Dr.SamLoomis so what’s the reason then?
@ Laziness and a built in fanbase that buys the game every year regardless of innovation
I wish sports games would come up with new ideas instead of taking features out of games then acting as if its brand new.
Stacking tables and etc.. needs to be brought back too
Small steps, I'm sure it will next year
How bout fix it so ladders and tables stop falling over so easily also
@@aeroblaziken4145 They left it un-updated for 10 years then removed it... we'll see

I like how during the promos their in their entrance attires
as it should be
I hope omg moments come back. Also i hope they added more plates in the create a title mode
I miss omg moments too
OMG Moments never left...They were in 2k24.
@@billsloan alot of them have been removed
Will see if Universe promos will actually be good this time. Last time it was just meaningless text as the wrestler did random posing.
At least we have it now facts wwe 2k17 and 2k18 promo was bad 2k19 and 2k20 was alr

Yes, I don't get why remove the ability to use a dive finishers off ladders, onto tables, or other places. They limit us for no reason.
@@raitaylorThat horrible creative director isn't a real wrestling fan and it's obvious in 2k22-2k24. There's way too many restrictions in newer WWE games smh.
When barricade diving is considered a new feature, you know the quality of final game😅
So happy we getting full cutscenes in WWE2k25
I hope the promos can have 2 players do em so locally and they'll take turns trying to win
Not really digging the new additions. I mean they are fine, but still no big revampment to universe mode, no story creator etc.
Jumping off the barricade looks like the same animation as jumping off the box in a backstage brawl. Hopefully there is more than 5 moves for this profound feature

@@owenchapman8320 I'd say brawls are their own thing though to be fair. Like it's own universe. Go crazy with them.
A big brawl does happen sometimes backstage. Especially with teams involved. Depends on the angle being ran.
I hope Visual Concepts have worked out how to do promos in Universe properly, becayse someone from VC blamed Universe promos for glitching 2K20.
Universe was created by Take Two Interactive and Yukes. VC was unable to recreate 2k19s clone code. Which resulted in 2k20.
So, it is not promos that are the issue. It is the spine of the game that is broken. Because we're STILL USING THAT BROKEN CODE.

Bro what we need is impact like 06 to 2010 and creat a finisher
they would have to work with AEW for the roster
I think he means ring physics like when wrestlers get slammed in the mat

That would be impossible. The roster is way too big
Still 2k14 best 2k game ❤
There's a special place in hell for developers who remove features and bring them back years later as "new."
Stop pre-ordering garbage. You're letting 2k bend you over and chair. WAIT TIL THE REVIEWS! Stop giving them your money for dogwater.
Cry me a river poor lil bro
I’m so excited for showcase this time. I really didn’t like 22-24s because of slingshot but I’m surprised they listened
They really need to allow the women to bleed. I know it’s such a minor thing, but come on.
tfw becky lynch with the crimson mask kicked off the biggest hype womans wrestling arguably ever had but you cant to that ingame
For real. If Nia Jax hadn’t busted Becky open, the man wouldn’t have been born.
Legendary video ThisGenGaming Thank you and Keep it up please 🏆🐐🎯🙏
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, BRING BACK BEING ABLE TO SIT ON STEEL CHAIRS!!!!
That was a very much Unimportant & Unnecessary Feature.
@ special guest ref matches where you can just set up a chair in the corner and watch your two friends beat each other up are never unimportant or unnecessary

love the "smackdown just bring it" menu music
4:36 One thing I noticed was the superstar hud now has a yellow bar just below the vitality meter. I’d assume that’s a stamina meter.
Could be, I like the little stamina circle they have in 24 tho
I wanna see Rhea Ripley vs Dirty Dom in Raw soon
I just want show intros back, nice little video and theme for my show a little pyro and see what city we’re in that night for universe
Adding the backstage from 19 would be nice
Hate to be that guy but those "Early Smackdown vs Raw Days" clips were "Smackdown Here Comes the Pain" Clips. Great video btw.
Honestly, I wish they'd get rid of the fact that, when doing MyRise they tell you what spots you have to do. I can understand in showcase mode having to do it but why do we have to do it in the MyRise?

PC getting last gen versions with no Island is fucked up, Pretty sure PC can handle The Island
Yup it just broke my heart 💔 hope they bring it to pc
Nothing to do with being able to handle it, it’s due to lack of people that play on PC compared to next gen consoles.
They don't. Too lazy work right?
Just download the mod and port in the game 😂😂
@@orangegamers4513 On PC, yes.
5:04 I actually enjoyed watching the real life footage during the showcase mode……it actually would bring back memories seeing the real stuff, by taking that away it’s gonna ruin the experience.
I want from them to bring back the shows intro with the pyro
They need to change the commentary, 2K needs to stop using Brian Saxton, Michael Cole, and Corey Graves use the three different teams like in SvR 2008
All of these are cool but I still hate the fact that the new WWE games lost its comfortable controls. After WWE 2K19 the controls turned into Mortal Kombat, it’s not fun and doesn’t fit WWE games at all. Even the old PS2 games had better controls than WWE 2K22 & WWE 2K24. It’s ridiculous.

Another thing I think we all agree on this, bro change them cutscenes I tired hearing “THIS SUPERSTAR” or “OH THIS SUPERSTAR KNOWS WHAT HE DO”
Yeah but now the question is what have they removed and what will be broken? Cutscenes in showcase is much better than the slingshot technology. The slingshot technology sucked.
Given that my forever favorite Bayley FINALLY has a starring role in a storyline, I'm good with the single mixed-gender storyline on that alone!
There is so much things missing again... Look at the ropes dynamics, the moves with a chair like to use it to jump or conchairto or try to break a leg etc so i am not convinced for now... And i am sure there will be no evolution dx etc
Imagine hitting a Texas piledriver on the barricade. Would be insane.
Is the bloodline edition only digital if so that is dumb because I like disc for Xbox series X
But will there be 60fps cutscenes on console? Other sports games have added them but wwe still hasn’t. If theres any year to do it it would be now giving that promos are back and slingshot is gone.
guess I'm one of the few who don't really care about the chain grappling thing
In my gm the make it to where u can have 6 to 8 man matches , the elimination chamber , the actual royal rumble match and money bank match
0:25 my concern is that intergender match is just a mode set to 1v1 and not them just removing the restriction for all matches
This has been addressed in this video & other channels. Intergender is available across ALL modes. Exception is mixed tag matches.
Im sick of showcase mode id love for them to bring back the custom stories
If GM mode was like SVR 06, 07, and 08 there wouldn't be any issues. I liked how you had the hometown hero advantage, match type advantage, and how you could boost your match rating if you played in the match
Definitely doing penta vs Chelsea Green when the penta DLC drops
I hope you can walk out in Promos with the title, or with your entrance attrie
I’m hoping we can bring out championships and the MITB briefcase in promos this year cause last year that was never possible
what game is the match with hbk and flair? dont remember that at all lol
