I can't figure out how to actually get the CAWs into the game, I've never used Steam Workshop before.
Click "Subscribe" on the Steam Workshop page and they'll automatically download (they're very small files, so it'll be close to instant). Then in the game (restart if it's already open) go to Edit Mode > Team Edit > Transfer Wrestler > Retire and un-retire your new characters.

What controller setup are you using? I had some frustrating experiences recently with Steam not liking my wireless Xbox 360 receiver setup. I had to go into Big Picture mode controller settings and from that menu un-check the "Xbox configuration support" option for it to get to recognize my controller. YMMV, but check those settings out before you refund if you havent.

Is there a good guide for how to play a Fire Pro game somewhere? Went through the tutorial stuff and got fairly comfortable with the grappling timing, but then it dumps you into "win a match by pinfall" and I have so many questions still. (Do you have to input something to kick out of pins or fight out of submissions? Dragging yourself to the ropes? How do you counter something?)

To kick out of pins you just hold A and it will kick out if you still have enough to kick out. To get out of submissions you spin the stick/circle the d-pad. Circling is also how you win the test of strength when you tie on a grapple. Counters are automatic based on how hard a move you are trying to do compared to their damage.

There's a tutorial in mission mode, which I think is under offline play. Play that. I had no clue how to play either.

Does choosing Face/Heel/Neutral have any impact on that?

Like, I made a Promotion (WWE) and then had to make a Stable (RAW) and put Seth Rollins and Samoa Joe in it (example). But they both aren't face.

Nah, the group alignment thing is just for organizational purposes. It doesn't have any effect besides different text on the select screen.

... unless they changed something.

(DJKM on his old packs liked to divide companies up into, say, "RAW heels" and "RAW faces" if you wanna do that)

Just started with it. The laptop runs it, chugs a little, but seems to work so far.

It's pretty fun! I have not played a Fire Pro game but it seems like what I was hoping it would be, a fast-playing, sorta arcadey wrestling game. The AI is good and responsive.

CAW- I do wish it did asymmetry more easily, letting you have a lopsided costume (I was trying to recreate Zoya's costume from GLOW, which has one normal sleeve and one that's detached). And yeah going through the moveset is a bit of work.

Word of advice to anyone with decent machines: use v-sync.

Game speed seems to be tied to FPS so when it runs at 120fps the game is ridiculously fast. :stare:

Maybe 1/3 of all matches I have tried, both creating and joining matches have black screened on me.

If I do get a match, I have had our selected characters swapped a few times, i think it made the aj styles guy very angry to have to play with my exotico.

I have been trying to put on a performance in my matches, but it seems like most of the wrestlers I go up against would be better off mixing cement. When I get tired of them I will either go for weapons or just chickenshit heel up the ramp.

Also, my first couple matches were unplayably laggy, but i have had some relatively stable ones lately.

I love that they added the strike contest spots. At first, I figured that had to be just a move someone had, but when I jumped into edit mode I noticed that there's a move category for strike contest, so I think that's actually being triggered dynamically somehow (maybe on ties?).

So cool.

How do you taunt on a 360 controller? It feels like I've tried every button and I haven't been able to trigger it.

I don't understand why they don't have a dedicated button (picking up weapons is also an action that needs it's own button, nothing like running into explosive barbed wire because the game decides to run)

I did it last night; it's not worded properly because it wants you to initiate a corner grapple by walking into him and then direction+BIG.
