Everyone's Playing!

I just got crushed in super card a bunch of times in a row now that I'm in epic. I guess this is why the sandbagging happens. I might be done, too.

Did anyone else thing the 2K15 Showcase mode is just boring? The Triple H/HBK was more interesting but I think thats down to it being nostalgic to me.
Also, gently caress Bo Dallas in that ladder match in NXT mode.

Just got to the bracket in an Epic KOTR without any sandbagging, and I may default my way to the finals just because the eastern seaboard of the U.S. is asleep. Good times!

In my last three KOTRs, I went from having no legendary pairs to having three. Time to grind for cards...

PCC Hogan is rated higher than the Diamond Brock. His speed is, appropriately enough, abysmal.

You shall now call me Snowball; because my fur is pretty and white.
I played way too much Supercard on the weekend and actually pulled a few UR cards and an Epic Edge, which was pretty cool. Now I've got my UR Macho Man pair as a reward in the PCC and have a KOTR ending in a few hours that will hopefully land me another UR pair. drat I have a lot of grinding to do to level up all these cards. I just hope I end up with a strong enough team to start getting into Epic KOTR finals instead of placing 8th and immediately losing 2-0 in the first elimination round.

Fifth Epic finals netted me a Jericho pair, giving me a (once I get around to levelling them) team of Macho Man, Rock, Jericho, Big Show, and Brie. Pretty happy I didn't get a second diva in any of those. Hopefully I can get a better fourth than Big Show while I level the others (Rock and Brie are pro'd but not levelled at all) but he's not terrible.

Getting those two Pro Legendaries yesterday has made my time in KOTRs significantly easier. They will make it easier to get more Legendary pairs, which will make it easier to get more Legendary pairs, and the cycle of rear end-kickery will perpetuate.

Hahah what no CAW divas? There goes any hope of a CAW Paige I guess.

I'll give this series a few years to put back in all the customisation features before I get it, I guess.

It seems like this is what they're banking on carrying the game. And honestly, from early reviews it might pay off for them.

Seems kinda dishonest that the game's already gold and they're doing the "oh by the way..."

So can we dispense with the bullshit of "well maybe next year they'll get it right"?

DIRECTIVE 236: Promote pro-social values
This is pretty much what happens almost every time an annual sports franchise moves up to the new generation of consoles. I remember Smackdown vs Raw 2007 ditching a lot of modes, having a very small roster, and being pretty horrible as far as the match mechanics worked. They slowly added things back and improved it again year by year. The new NHL game is apparently missing a ton of poo poo and EA tried to pull a "Oh, we didn't know you guys wanted all this content we cut out."

Pretty disingenuous to do it at the last minute and act all "Gee golly guys, we really meant to do this and tell you but we were just working so hard on this game that went gold weeks ago" about it though.

Divas being excluded from CAW makes me even more irritated that Paige is attached to the $24.99 showcase pass. And if you want Emma, that's another $6.99 :(

Has anyone spent any money on Supercard?

I play it a ton and wouldn't mind sending the devs some money, but drat their price points are unappealing. It would be like $10 just to MAYBE get an Epic card, but most likely get an Ultra Rare that I absolutely don't need. No thanks!

And forget about paying $25 for an Epic, cause I know I won't get the Legendary.

I threw the minimum £2 at it for a last minute energy refill in a KOTR semifinal and used up the rest on the 10 credit PCC boosts. Otherwise not worth it.

If they offered a "99 cents to fully level a card instantly!" option, I'd seriously think about it. It would tempt the part of my brain that thinks "oh that's not much money and it saves you hours of grinding!"
