NewLegacyInc have started their 24 hour stream supporting Fighting Back and the Canadian Cancer Society, for anyone interested in wackiness and possibly ridiculous guests.

Is there any word if Fire Pro is gonna be more expensive when it leaves early access or not? I'm tempted to try it out having not played one ever but I'm also hesitant to buy an early access game.

I don't think the devs have mentioned a price increase, but the Newlegacy guys have been hinting at a bump to $30 or $40 and they've been talking to community managers for a few weeks. Not gospel, but it's possible. The early-access-ness of the game is almost entirely in the UI and online bugs, some of which they've already patched in 3 days.

If you haven't tried the series before, it's probably worth it now to do the mission mode tutorials and a few matches to see if you like the gameplay, which does take some time to get used to, and refund if you don't like it. Streams don't do the game's difficulty and nuance justice.

Creation question: is there anything specifically wrong with the default AI settings for created wrestlers? They seem to do fine in matches but I've seen threads that didn't like caws that didn't have AI.

It says worlds about the churn in WWE and the awful rotating legend rosters of these games that a 2k14 rumble feels like opening a 50 year time capsule.

Is 2k17(?) running at 75% the normal speed? Because it feels like they're fighting underwater.

Duel suffers through watching all of these marathons at regular speed as they're recorded. He'd never be cruel enough to slow one down.

(He was in chat the other day and said the Wrestlemania X8 rumble from 2015 was almost 3 hours long unedited)

Two 2k rumbles in a row is really draining though toward the end of the day.

Early review of 2k18: how do you feel about 2k17 with ambient occlusion turned waaaaay up? It's that, with cruiserweights, inexplicable slowdown, and a worse camera.

I don't understand a single one of the decisions that were theoretically made by human beings that made 2k18 the way that it is.

This might be the biggest regression ever in yearly game releases.

Simply throwing someone at the announce table on the ramp leads to an out of bounds glitch.

They don't QA these games at all.

The belt loosely floating in front of Pete Dunne's face and having 15fps physics is really great in 2k19 too.

Getting that full wave of partially on-disc DLC plans on twitter for goodwill before they've shown even a second of unproduced gameplay or said what changes are in this year.

They 100% left Dakota Kai as DLC because the few thousand newLegacy fans are the only people who still buy these games.

It's like they specifically watch NL streams and remove things accordingly. Matches where everyone is raising their right arm on the roster screen? Make everyone stand in the exact same pose that makes them all look chunky.

The million dollar contest is so unbelievably scummy.

It went live a day before most people will get the game. The people playing early have already bought in and are good at the game. It's not allowed on PC because it relies on an achievement that could be cheatengined. It looks absolutely miserable and based 33% on luck, 33% AI cheese, and 34% also AI cheese.

The only way this ends up worth it is if Denker, Jawnny, and Htial have a promo battle on Raw.
