Guest lousms Report post Posted October 12, 2005 What do you guys think about a Smackdown Vs. Raw 2006 Leauge? If you're wondering what the hell I'm talking about.... I create a 'federation' and some title belts and create matches. People sign up and join and I book them in their matches, which they play online. It's run kind of like WWE or whatever. BUT WHY? Well, good question. 1.) You get to play with the same group of people, and the boss will try to challenge your skill level closely. 2.) If you lose a belt, you know it's still in your group, and you can get it back. 3.) Good commuinity feeling. 4.) It's just fun, ok! So, am I crazy? What do you think?

Perfxion 0 Report post Posted October 12, 2005 I am all for it. Slimline PS2 rules. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rendclaw 0 Report post Posted October 12, 2005 I would do that in a heartbeat. CAWs, or just established characters? run a search on "comparison shopping PS2 network adaptor" I found one for $13. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dubq 0 Report post Posted October 12, 2005 I'd be in for this, for sure! I've been debating trading in my PS2 for a slimline (not only for the network adapter, but to save space too) and paying the difference. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

USC Wuz Robbed! 0 Report post Posted October 12, 2005 If this was a CAW only thing, I'd do it. If people here are going to use Muhammad Hassan then no. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest lousms Report post Posted October 13, 2005 Thanks for all the positive feedback guys, I'll let you know as I develop the idea some more. I was thinking that our leauge would be CAW only, but, thinking it over, is there any advantage if someone uses Hassan, for example? The CAW's are probobly better anyway. Well, I'm gonna formulate a plan and I'll get back to you all. Thanks! (PS- My name's John, nice to meet you. I've been watching y'all for a lil' while, you rock!) PSS- Hey Adam, it's pretty cheap, the online thing. 15 bucks or so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Da Maintenance Man 0 Report post Posted October 13, 2005 Question: is there a service fee to play SVR2006 online or is it free? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It's free. At least it was in last year's SDvR. I can't see them all of a sudden charging for this year's game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dubq 0 Report post Posted October 13, 2005 I'm also cool with the CAW-only idea. I think it would be better than mixing CAW & pre-set wrestlers. I'm assuming that CAW stats will be vastly inferior to those of the WWE wrestlers? If/when this does happen, we should gather times that people are available to book matches. Will we also have a "promo" thread to write efed style promos for our wrestlers or will this strictly be for shits and giggles and playing the game online?

USC Wuz Robbed! 0 Report post Posted October 13, 2005 Why? Its not like the efedding promos determine who wins. Your playing skills in the game does. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest I miss Test. Report post Posted October 13, 2005 While it's a good idea... running leagues on PS2 online is a frustrating thing to accomplish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dubq 0 Report post Posted October 13, 2005 Why? Its not like the efedding promos determine who wins. Your playing skills in the game does. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> True. I wasn't asking for that feature, I was just wondering if that would be something that's expected (ie: to build characters, etc). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
USC Wuz Robbed! 0 Report post Posted October 13, 2005 I'd hope the league is run like a legitimate league, where wins are rewarded and losses are not. The best players should be the ones to go for the titles and so forth while the worst should just be a designated jobber for the time being. It should be a competition, it's not like we get together to work out the spots, unless we wanted to put together a visually attractive match, but who else would watch?

The only goal should be to win matches. Titles and such should be decided via a tournament, and then challengers via a simple points-based ranking system (+1 for a win, -1 for a loss). I disagree about making people designated jobbers. You can't force someone to take a dive in a videogame unless they want to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
USC Wuz Robbed! 0 Report post Posted October 13, 2005 No they will take dives by sucking naturally. That's what I mean by making them the jobbers... the guys who just can't win. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Team Angle Pusher 0 Report post Posted October 13, 2005 It will be hella fun if we do this right. Eventually we will have jobbers, midcarders, upper midcarders and main eventers. Titles on the line, Tag Teams will be formed. We can even do a fake tournie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

USC Wuz Robbed! 0 Report post Posted October 13, 2005 I'd hope people would be creative and serious with their CAWs. I'd hate to have to wrestle a piece of shit CAW just because its owner couldn't be bothered to put some thought in it. Also if I do encounter a CAW I deem to be shitty, I will thoroughly decimate the person in a match vs me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
