Total Extreme Warfare

[hbk314]

Coming in 2004, Total Extreme Warfare is the highly-anticipated new wrestling management simulator from Adam Ryland, creator of the critically acclaimed Extreme Warfare Revenge series. Taking on the role of a wrestling promoter, it will be up to you to try and steer your chosen company to the top of the industry, along the way dealing with prima donna superstars, wars with rival companies, and the demands of TV companies!

Based on the North American wrestling scene, Total Extreme Warfare will take the ideas and features first presented in Extreme Warfare Revenge, and take them to the next level. Combining the decade of experience that Adam Ryland has in creating fan-friendly wrestling simulators with the quality that people have come to expect from .400 Software Studios, Total Extreme Warfare will give fans who are bored with the tired genre of button-bashing arcade wrestling games the chance to use their wits as they play the most richly detailed wrestling simulator ever created.

What is the release date for Total Extreme Warfare?

Total Extreme Warfare is currently under development, and is scheduled for release during the first quarter of 2004.

How much will the game cost?

Total Extreme Warfare will retail for $34.95 and will be available for instant purchase and download through .400 Software Studios. You can also have the CD-ROM version mailed to you for an additional charge of $10.00.

What will be the differences between Total Extreme Warfare and Extreme Warfare Revenge 4.0?

In addition to a total redesign of the game's interface, complete with music and audio effects, Total Extreme Warfare will feature new and expanded gameplay, including more angles and matches, over 2000 wrestlers, new wrestler statistics including height, weight, and microphone skill, fantasy and historical game scenarios, a more comprehensive financial and merchandising model, and in-depth wrestler and promotion almanacs which track career history.

Why a wrestling simulation?

Wrestling fans have generally not been given much in the way of choice before now - if you wanted to play a wrestling game, you had to be prepared for button-bashing arcade style games. Total Extreme Warfare offers you the ability to tests your wits, not your thumbs, as you use strategy and your creativity to build your promotion into the dominant company in North America.

Will Total Extreme Warfare be based on Extreme Warfare Revenge 4.0?

Yes. Extreme Warfare Revenge 4.0 is a solid foundation on which to build, thanks to many years of being played, tested, and having ideas suggested for it by thousands of users. Total Extreme Warfare will take this foundation and overhaul some existing features that have become outdated or can be improved, and also add many brand new features that were never possible before. The end result will be a great compromise of having all the best features and robustness of Extreme Warfare Revenge, but with a whole set of new features, updates, and overhauls, complete with a total redesign of the interface.

How many wrestlers will be available?

Total Extreme Warfare will sport a database of well over 2,000 wrestlers.

Will the computer-controlled promotions be more intelligent than in Extreme Warfare Revenge 4.0?

Yes. The AI will be completely rewritten in Total Extreme Warfare, making the computer able to book its own cards, keep track of its champions, and build up its own roster. It will also be far more intelligent in dealing with the player, such as protecting its star wrestlers from attempted steals.

Will injuries be more realistic in Total Extreme Warfare?

Yes. Injuries will be far more detailed in TEW. Certain injuries will prevent a wrestler from wrestling but not cutting interviews, others will allow a worker to wrestle (although with reduced ability), while others will prevent a worker from doing anything until they are fully healed.

Will Total Extreme Warfare include real wrestlers?

The major wrestling promotions prohibit the use of their wrestlers' names and likenesses for commercial profit. The Total Extreme Warfare universe is a fictional one, although you can edit virtually every aspect of the game to customize it to your needs.

What kinds of customization options will there be?

Total Extreme Warfare will build on the highly-regarded editor that was part of it's predecessor Extreme Warfare Revenge 4.0, allowing the user to customize virtually every single aspect of the game world.

[HardyBoy™]

Pay money for a sequel to a game that's already great? No thanks.

[hbk314]

Especially since it is all fictional...

[s-pac]

Ill just stick with updates for whatever the last free version will be...

[Melv]

Either that, or everyone clubs together to buy one, download it, then upload it someplace else for everyone else to download.

:yes:

[Jonathan]

Fuck that.

[Assface]

Or just download it off of KaZaA! And none of us have to buy it!

[RaBbI-tAnGeRiNe]

Wow, you lot are really coming off as selfish little bastards. Stealing from giant games companies is one thing, but you're not willing to give something back to the guy who gave you the excellent EWR series for free?

Fuck off. :no:


I'll probably buy the game, as long as it gets good reviews, and has a "patch" for real wrestlers.

[Ozanne]

The real wrestlers is the only thing that's bad about it. It would be good, as a big company is helping him now.

[Anglefan]

I won't buy it if real wrestlers aren't on it. That would make it inferior to the current versions. Why would I pay for something that will be less enjoyable to me?

[The Great Dave]

I won't buy it if real wrestlers aren't on it. That would make it inferior to the current versions. Why would I pay for something that will be less enjoyable to me?

Because the chances are there will be a patch for real wrestlers.

I won't buy it, simply because I'm a cheep bastard. Paying for normal games is one thing, I can't download GC games. But paying for a download when I can just go to another site and get it for free? Never gonna happen.

[TRO]

Well, it's only a couple weeks until the end of TEW's timeframe for release. Looks like Ryland and his team are pulling out all the stops: theres an improved feud simulator, different feds are more or less over in different cities, there's a comprehensive match editor to create whatever you want, you can see other companys' cards and who they're pushing, and there's a new multiplayer feature. It'll cost $34.95 and should be available soon, with a "real wrestlers" patch from RaveX due shortly after.

So is anyone else as hella excited as I am? I cant wait! :hyper:

For more info, check out Adam's list of features: http://www.400softwarestudios.com/invboard/upload/index.php?showtopic=42999

This game is going to be sooooo tight...

[Nighthawk]

I dunno. I have a feeling that until Adam creates a virtual subdimension for this game to exist in which there is sentient AI and a complete virtual world, the game will still have that persistent boredom-following-the-two-days-of-fun factor. It's always there. :\

I'm still gonna check it out though.

[Ozanne]

No-one knows a specific date?

[HHHnFoley_Rulez]

I dunno. I have a feeling that until Adam creates a virtual subdimension for this game to exist in which there is sentient AI and a complete virtual world, the game will still have that persistent boredom-following-the-two-days-of-fun factor. It's always there. :\

I'm still gonna check it out though.


Apparently the AI's been redone to be very realistic :chin:

The release date is still "first quater" i think, i dont think theres a diffinate one..

[TRO]

They say they'll announce a release date once beta testing is done and all the bugs are hopefully gone. Then again, I think Ryland's announced a release date in that past (for the EWR series) and released a few days before that date as a surprise... A couple of them have been on Wrestlemania day...

[PGH Man O Steel]

At least the man has a sense of drama.

[The_Mike]

I remember when EWR came out, 9am in the UK, and the server was packed. Haha. One guy's work created all that hype and chaos. It was amazing.

Anyway, just taking a gander at the screenshots makes me wanna buy this game. Yes, it's a shame we're expected to pay for a download. That's a system I've never been a fan of, because it can get messed up so easily. But I think Adam deserves some cash for all his effort over the years, plus I would readily pay premium video game price for this simulator if it was on a shelf in a shop. Just hope there's some decent method of payment and download that doesn't leave you waiting 28 days for a code to come that doesn't work.

[Friday]

You can pay a little bit extra if you want the CD.

[Curly Toe]

What site are the screenshots on?

[Friday]

www.totalextremewarfare.com

[Curly Toe]

Thanks Friday.

The game looks amazing from the screenshots and I'm thinking about getting it. The only problem I have though is that I get easily bored with Extreme Warfare so it might be a bit of a risk paying for something like this if I'm not going to get much enjoyment out of it.

[Friday]

TEW has now went gold and the release date will be announced in the next few days.

[Donde]

I apologize if this has already been answered, but how do you get the game? Is there some site you go to to order it or what?

[Justin-Credible]

Who is actually going to buy this? I'll just go download it off the internet for free.

[Curly Toe]

I don't think it is possible to download it for free Justin because you need a code for every game and the code can only be used once.

[Friday]

DELP? - If you go to www.totalextremewarfare.com, when it is released you will be able to order it. You can then download it or for a bit extra you can get it on CD.

Justin-Credible - When you order it you get a special code. When that code is used, it can't be used on any other copy. They have taken steps that should make it impossible for any piracy.

[Melv]

How much is this costing the average Brit?

[Curly Toe]

So a game which is being developed by a British designer is being sold in Dollars?

That's a bit shit isn't it?

Is there any way that British people can buy it from somewhere in the UK?

[Friday]

It may be designed by a Brit, but it's an American Company. You can only download it or get the CD from them.

I think it costs just under 20 quid and just under 30 quid if you want it on CD.

[Melv]

Didn't realise screenshots were up, and they look amazing.

I might just have to splash out on this.

:(

[Melv]

If you were to get it on CD, couldn't you copy it before the code is entered, then it could be used twice? Or am I being silly?

[Curly Toe]

I'm sure they'll have something sorted out to stop that from happening.

Does anyone think this would be worth buying for someone who gets bored easily with Extreme Warfare?

[Friday]

I think that you have to be online when you enter the code and they store the fact that the code has been used. Or something like that.

[Curly Toe]

So what happens if someone wants to buy the game but they don't have an internet connection?

[Friday]

I don't know. I get most of my information for the TEW message boards and most people probably don't even know and are just talking out of their arses.

[Curly Toe]

Yeah they probably are, but if it is right what you were saying about the internet connection it's not very fair for people that don't have one.

[Friday]

I am probably not even right.

Anyway, the vast majority of people that would want to buy the game will probably have an internet connection anyway.

[Curly Toe]

Yeah I suppose you're right.

I think I might buy it anyway.

[Justin-Credible]

Theres no way I will buy this, because I hardly play EWR. Plus there is no real wrestlers.

[Friday]

Justin-Credible - There will be a real data update by Ravex on the day of the release. They just can't sell the game with the real data because of copyright reasons.

[Justin-Credible]

I know, but theres no way in hell this is going to sell many copies. He should just make it free, why pay for something I allready have. If it's a sim just like EWR then why pay for a new version?

[Nighthawk]

The version you have right now is going to pale in comparison to this new one. This one is being professionally designed, so I imagine all of the details are going to be fixed (ie fixing all of the grammatical mistakes), and the jump from 4.x to TEW will be much bigger than any previous jump.

If you don't want to pay for it, then stick to playing with your current version.

[Melv]

I know, but theres no way in hell this is going to sell many copies. He should just make it free, why pay for something I allready have. If it's a sim just like EWR then why pay for a new version?
If you think it's what you have already, what's the point in whining? You obviously don't need to buy it.

Also, what happens if you use the code, then your computer gets a virus and you have to re-format or something? You can't use the code again.

[Friday]

I think you can just e-mail them and they will take it off their database, then you can use the code again. Again, this is just me taking little bits and pieces from members of the TEW board.

J-C - EWR was just a part-time hobby. TEW is a full-time job. TEW is a totally new game with tons of new features.

[Melv]

Okay Friday, so we'll buy one, install it, then say we reformatted, then install it on mine.

Deal?

[Nighthawk]

I'm assuming they use IP addresses too, Melv.

Which still wouldn't make it impossible to pirate, just harder. Much more than the average game, anyways.

[J.C]

Yeah someone asked the same thing, you have to tell the private information like your address or something and if you get a new pc or something you just have to let them know and you re-issue it. but it is annoying if you wanted say it at home and work.

It is limiting.

[Melv]

So basically, me and Friday could get it?

[Friday]

Okay Friday, so we'll buy one, install it, then say we reformatted, then install it on mine.

Deal?

:wtf: But then I wouldn't be able to play it on mine because I wouldn't be able to enter the code again.

[Melv]

I'm basing it on the fact that you'd only have to enter the code when you install the game.

Surely you won't have to enter it every single time you play it?

[Friday]

But so that you could enter the code, I would have to tell the people to unregister mine. I would be able to re-register my copy if you go and register your copy.

[Melv]

I'm sure they'd just be activating the code again, not hacking into your computer to uninstall the game.

If the game was like that, you'd HAVE to be online just to play it. Which won't happen.

[Friday]

I really don't know how it works. But I do know that they have taken every possible step to prevent piracy.

[Melv]

We should just get HHH to hold Piracy down so we can all get a free copy.

[RaBbI-tAnGeRiNe]

How about you just buy the game? :squint:


This isn't EA or THQ here, this is one guy who's treated the development of this game as a full-time job. He gave you EWR for free, and I'm sure you liked those if you're bothering to discuss this game. Can't spare a measly £20? Get a paper round or open a kissing booth, or whatever you crazy kids do.

I shit on the beds of people who steal from Ryland.

[Nighthawk]

How about you just buy the game? :squint:



He'd hold down the price. :yes:

[Melv]

I'm not saying I'm not buying the game.

I'm just not sure I want to pay £20 for it.

If there's a demo to come out, I'll check it out. If I like it, I'll probably buy it. No harm in getting a copy cheaper to see if you'll like it or not, if you may intend on buying it, is there?


:naughty: Can you shit on my bed anyway? :naughty:

[thegoat]

Urgh, I'm against all this buying online stuff... I like to have something solid I can see I spent my money on as soon as I've spent it, but I guess I might end up making the exception for this

[Curly Toe]

Urgh, I'm against all this buying online stuff... I like to have something solid I can see I spent my money on as soon as I've spent it, but I guess I might end up making the exception for this

You can pay extra to get the CD.

[RaBbI-tAnGeRiNe]

The game apparently has a one-day trial before activation is required. I don't know anything about limitations on the trial, but I'm sure they'll do something to stop people from re-installing it every day.

Any more lip from you, laddy, and I'll have the Vasey shit on your bed. Twice.

[thegoat]

You can pay extra to get the CD.

Yeah but then I have to wait while they send it over to me from Yank Land

[Friday]

What will the price be for Total Extreme Warfare?

The price will be $34.95 (US). All payments must be in US funds.

I don’t have a credit card, can I still purchase the game?

The game is also available by Money Order, payable in US funds. Most banks, including non- US banks, can help you get a money order that is payable in US dollars.

You can find the details on ordering by Money Order at our Online Store:
https://www.elicense.com/400software/store/

or by directly following this link:
https://www.elicense.com/400software/store/...phoneorder.html

Our distributor Via Tech adds a $5.00 (US) surcharge for the processing of Money Order purchases, as a result if you are purchasing by Money Order the cost for TEW will be $39.95 (US).

I don’t want to purchase the game online, is there another option?

Yes, you can purchase the game by telephone.

You can find details on ordering by Telephone at our Online Store:
https://www.elicense.com/400software/store/

or by directly following this link:
https://www.elicense.com/400software/store/...phoneorder.html

Our distributor Via Tech charges a $5.00 (US) surcharge for the processing of telephone purchases, as a result if you are purchasing by Money Order the cost for TEW will be $39.95 (US).

Will the game be available in stores?

No, TEW is only available by ordering it through our distributor Via Tech. This can be done either through the game or through our online store.

Will the game have real wrestlers, promotions, etc.?

No, TEW will not contain any trademarked properties.

Is the game available by download only? Or can I get it on CD?

The game is available by download or by shipped CD. The CD will contain the exact same file as the download. Our distributor Via Tech charges $10.00 (US) for the printing and shipping of the CD. As a result the price for a TEW CD order will be $44.95 (US).

CD Orders are usually processed within 4-5 days, and then are shipped via the US Postal Service.

Yes there will be a fully featured one-day trial available when the game is released. We strongly encourage people to try out the game before they purchase. Per company policy we cannot offer refunds.

Can I purchase and license the game on a computer that doesn’t have Internet access?

Yes. You would install as per normal, and when you install you would follow the offline licensing process. This process does require that you can get to a computer that has Internet access, but it doesn’t need to be the computer that you will license the game on.

What is a license?

A license is what allows you to run the game on your computer. The game will not run on a computer that doesn’t have a valid eLicense.

How many licenses will the game ship with?

TEW will ship with 1 license.

So does that mean I can only have the game licensed on one computer at a time?

Yes.

Can I share an order ID with a friend?

No, this would be in violation of the license agreement which is accepted by your installation and running of the game.

If I bought a new computer, would I have to buy the game again?

No. Simply unlicense the game on your old computer, and install and license the game on the new one.

I have to format my hard drive, how can I make sure I don’t have to buy TEW again?

Simply unlicense the game before formatting and then re-license it when you are back up and running.

What if my hard drive crashes or I have to format before I can unlicense the game?

[Justin-Credible]

35 to 40 dollars. Thats more than most computer games. I think a more reasonable price would be 10 dollars. Now after reading that whose going to buy it.

[Curly Toe]

Looks like it'll be difficult to get copies on two computers then.

That's pretty shit if you want to play it on a desktop and a laptop.

[RockOverBoston]

35 to 40 dollars. Thats more than most computer games.

No, really, it's not. Not unless you're buying used or dated games.


I think a more reasonable price would be 10 dollars.

Then you're a cheap bastard. Sorry, there's really no polite way to put it. There's nothing reasonable at all about 10 dollars. The guy would turn absolutely zero profit -- yet again. In fact, with the backing of .400, it's safe to say they'd lose their collective shirts.


Now after reading that whose going to buy it.

How about the many people who thoroughly enjoyed the EWR series and expect this game to be far superior -- who aren't cheap bastards.

Let's use your absolutely ridiculous "reasonable price" of 10 dollars and look at it this way.

I'm assuming you DLed at least 2 versions of EWR. Certainly 10 bucks is reasonable for each of those, right?

There's nothing unreasonable at all about a man who has given you several video games for free charging slightly less than nearly all other brand new computer games cost.

[Justin-Credible]

I'll just sick to EWR, it's the same concept. I'm just saying 35 to 40 dollars is a little to much to ask for a video game like this.

[Nighthawk]

I agree that it is pricey Justin, only in the sense that it's not (well, at least to my knowledge) a world-class designing team or anything like that which would merit $40 for other games. For example, The Sims is produced by a company (EA) that has proven 'worthy' by making games that set or exceed the standards, and they've been doing it for years now. The producing team of TEW is relatively unknown (either that or I've been living in a cave), which doesn't discount them from the possibility that their game will exceed EA's possibilities, but makes it highly unlikely.

I think, though, that forty dollars is fair to pay for the entire series, though. If I'm going to buy this game, I'd like to think that I'm paying about $30 for this game and $2.50 for the other 4 (I think, it might have been 3) that I've downloaded. That price breakdown sounds more reasonable.

[S.H. Styles]

:\

I know that $40 is too much to spend on TEW, but if there isn't a way to hack the game and to get it free, I'm definately buying it. The game is fucking awesome. Not only do storylines have more clear cut options, but its 10x better than EWR. You can have a 1-1 storyline, or one to as many as 6 people. Then there is a meter which progresses it, for example it will say "Kane costs Booker the match- 75% effectiveness- RAW april 1, 2004."

Its fucking awesome. Can't wait.

[TRO]

Yeah, .400 knows people will overpay for this game and they're taking advantage of it... But I'll still buy it. The official release date will be posted either today or tomorrow, so it should be out soon. I'm kinda pissed that it costs that much, since Baseball Mogul 2K5 is coming out on April 12th, and now I dont know if I can afford both...

[The Brothers Grimm]

I think 35 is a tad much for a game that isn't done by a professional company that has produced mainstream games in the past. 20 to 25 sounds more right to me, but I'll probably get it anyway. I'm just pissed I can't even put the game on two computers that I both fucking own. What a dumb idea, I'm sure there was something else that could have been done to prevent piracy.

[The_Mike]

To be fair most piracy prevention methods require tangible material to work. Such as anti-copy protection on CDs, or special passcodes and those 'verb wheels' you used to get with adventure games. Unfortunately, that would require either everyone to get it on CD or to send people the codes and stuff that they could easily upload for others to use. Maybe they could've found another way. I don't know. I don't mind much myself, since only one of my machines would've been capable of playing it anyway, but still I can sympathise with those who wanted to use it on two machines.

I wonder if you can install it more than once on the same machine. I like to have two versions going on with EWR, a 'fantasy' world and the regular world.

Anyway, is $35 really that much? We in the UK usually pay 40-50 pounds sterling for a game, which is about 70 or 80 bucks. Are games really much cheaper in the US? I'm sick of being ripped off in the UK. $35 is quite a good price for us.

[Dave]

You pay £50 for a game?

Why? Where?

PC Games usually cost about £30/£35 on release - and that's if you get it form somewhere like Game, going to an independent retailer'd probably knock off another £5 or so. Admittedly PS2 games and such cost more, but £50 for a game :eyebrow:

[Lawson]

Most N64 games came out with a £50 price tag. Bought a couple at that price back in the day.

I'll certainly be buying TEW. I don't think the price is unreasonable given the amount of time I've spent playing EWR. I expect I'll use TEW just as much if not more. But saying that it is not at the top of my list. I won't be trying to get it as soon as possible, I'll wait until I will have the time to play it properly.

[The Brothers Grimm]

The most N64 games cost here was $60. You can usually get new releases of 'real' games here for 40 or 50 bucks.

[Crazy_Vasey]

Wasn't it Turok that had an absolutely obscene price tag, something like £70? Wasn't even a good game!

[Melv]

That's probably because they gave the demo or whatever to nearly all the magazines, so it got something stupid like 98% rating.

I never liked that kind of game anyway.

[Friday]

You can download TEW at http://66.193.175.87/redist/

You can play for 24 hours before you have to purchase it.

[Melv]

http://66.193.175.87/redist/TEWSetup.exe

Direct Link to the file for anyone that's too dumb to find it from Friday's link.

Also, 23.5mb?

:nono:

[HHHnFoley_Rulez]

Here goes 5 mins of my time..

thats 4.5 downloadin
.5 realising it sucks ;)

*OLÉ*

[Melv]

Friday, have you tried it yet?

If so, how decent is it? And are all the features enabled for the 'demo'?

[Donde]

It's downloading very slow and I have a cable modem. I guess alot of people are downloading it at once.

[Melv]

FUCK SHIT ARSE COCK!!!!!!111

44% through a 23mb download on a fucking 56k modem, and the fucker crashes.

:rant:

[Hlebsfall]

66% done going about 11.6kb a second on broadband. Taken about 15 mins. Ten remaining.

[.invurzion.]

Well - if it's decent - I'll get it. If not - I'll probably still get it cause I'm a dumbass...

[N64 cheater]

Melv; yep, all the features are fully enabled for the one day trial.

I'm just doing a quick bit of tweaking in the editor, so I have a few workers I'm familiar with. :yes:

Also, if it's painfully slow, you may want to try the mirror links which are here:

http://www.400softwarestudios.com/invboard/upload/index.php?showtopic=52249

[HHHnFoley_Rulez]

Man - i dont like it :(

The music is annoying (though you can probably turn it off - speakers ;))

The buttons etc look terrible...

The game is over-done and very fiddly and pedantic...

...Dissapointed i am :(

There are some nice features in, but overall - for me, a let down :(

2/5 :cry:

[Hlebsfall]

The music on this game is enough to make you drive rusty nails into your ears.

[Friday]

I think the game looks like a good improvement on EWR. You can tell that he spent more time on TEW. When there is a real wrestlers update, the game should be class.

[Hlebsfall]

Are the wrestlers in this game completley made up, or actually a proper wrestler with a changed name?

[Friday]

Completely made up. He didn't base the wrestlers on anyone.

[HHHnFoley_Rulez]

Since it has a mag with the description

"A UK 'lad mag' aimed at extreme and minority sports, such as goat hurling and hand grenade basketball."

AND multiplayer - i'll move it up to 2.55/5 :eek:

best i can do, considering its £20 :dead:

[Hlebsfall]

To be honest, you need the proper wrestlers to be able to play this game, I have given up on it already.

[Melv]

So basically Friday's the only one that likes it?

[Friday]

To be honest, you need the proper wrestlers to be able to play this game, I have given up on it already.

Yeah, I am going to wait to buy it until the real wrestlers update is out.

[N64 cheater]

I'm gonna have a proper look at it tonight...

...I've edited in my own promotion, a few of the guys from work and we'll see how it goes...

The visual element of the game is a lot better, though.

[Donde]

Damn this game really, really sucks. This coming frm an EWR fan. Maybe when the real wrestlers patch is available, it will be good, but I didn't know any of my wrestlers well enough to be able to even put on a watchable show.

So far, it gets a huge :no:.

[The Great Dave]

I'll wait for the patch before judging. But there is no way in hell I'm ever going to pay for it.

[The Brothers Grimm]

There's a BETA patch out now. I've downloaded, but not played so far. DSL kicks slow loading times' asses.

[JASONX]

Dude, major dissapointment...wouldn't spend a dime on it...sorry mates it wasnt what I was waiting for. I think i will stick to editing and playing EWR4.2!!! it rocks this games socks off.

Hey here is a review TEW...


The good- Control in your booking is nicer because your show has to reach the time limit.

The bad- not a minute over or under...so if you have one minute to spare you better play a video

The ugly- This whole game.

[Friday]

The bad- not a minute over or under...so if you have one minute to spare you better play a video



You can edit segments though. So you could easily just add a minute to a match to bring it up to time.

[The Brothers Grimm]

Hugely dissapointed so far, it's not as good as EWR was for free.

[Nighthawk]

Downloaded the demo and playing it now.

It's a massive step up from the other games, but a disappointment. :\ I'd like to spend the money to get this game, but I'm not overly desiring to.

[Justin-Credible]

I will wait a few months, maybe they'll be a free version by then. If not then I will wait until the game is 10 dollars.

[TRO]

Yeah, I hope the price goes down and the RaveX updates get better... It's just no fun without the real wrestlers...

[Melv]

Anyone else think they tried too hard on this one?

There's too many 'sections' and it's way too difficult to find your way around.

[RaBbI-tAnGeRiNe]

Hmm, kinda disappointed. When I first saw the screenshots, they showed a worker with a Poser-created picture. They never said it was a generic photo that everyone has, or no photo at all - that annoyed me. It's much harder to identify your workers without them.

Anyway, I'm not going to shit on this game yet. It's incredibly complex, so I'll just have to give it more time. It seems you have to click through a thousand sub-categories just to blow your nose.

Oh, and my first ever card got 19%. Then I used the terrible "real wrestler" patch, and found that Kurt Angle and Eddie Guerrero weren't "ready" to fill up 90 minutes with an Iron Man match. :mad:



Anyway, I'll buy it, it's hardly expensive, and I know I'll get into it sooner or later.

[msmsammo]

I got 50 something percent on my first card! :yes: I rock!

Tommy Cornell vs Sam Strong - cant go wrong there!

[The Great Dave]

There is a new patch made by some dude, say hello to it here (http://www.400softwarestudios.com/invboard/upload/index.php?showtopic=52655)

Using that, my enjoyment did go up a lot, but now my trial has expired :(

[Nighthawk]

This game officially blows.

I doubt it's Adam's fault. I'm going to be unknowingful and blame .400 Studios. I tried to get into it, but by making the screens ridiculously complicated, the game is officially screwed and there's no way I'm spending money on it.

I tried so many times to start a show just to see what booking was like, but I couldn't do that because I could never get enough workers to stay on my roster. When I finally got 8, it still wouldn't let me because none of them were active (according to the 'talk' section, and most of them were decentish workers). I have no idea on how to activate my roster and I really don't care anymore.

:cry:

[The Great Dave]

Quick little question

I'm playing around with that order form thing, specifically the "install license" bit. Basically, if I bought the game, would I be able to give the key I get to a friend to use? I notice there is a "get off-line license" option, if done that way they wouldn't be able to tell I've used the same Order ID twice. Right?

I don't know if I've done a good job of explaining it, but typed words will be appreciated.

:D

[TRO]

That's the same major feud I used! Except I got more like 65%... ;)

Dave, they've apparently got a ton of measures in place to prevent people from doing what you were talking about. There was some thread on the 400 board about it, and the game saves your ID or something so it can't be downloaded twice.... So some people were annoyed that you cant have it on a PC and a laptop at the same time...

[Curly Toe]

I downloaded it last night but I couldn't even find my roster.

Can anyone tell me how to find everything?

[The Great Dave]

Ugh. That's annoying. I really wasn't impressed with it when I played it, but I didn't have enough time with the WWE roster to truely judge it. But I'm not paying £20 for a game that may well suck.

[RaBbI-tAnGeRiNe]

Well I found a better WWE patch (possibly the one mentioned earlier), and with a little bit of tweaking here and there, I've managed to really get into it.

Oh, and it's a fucking AWESOME game. I'm still having a few problems trying to work my way around, but just booking the shows is pretty damn cool. The fantasy roster sucked so much, it's a shame RaveX didn't have their patch out on time - they probably cost Adam a lot of potential buys. It seems a lot of people have been put off the game because there was no WWE patch available before the trial ran out. It's a damn shame people are going to miss out.

Needless to say, I bought the game. The easiest thing I've ever bought online. No hassle at all. And no regrets either. :yes:



But if anyone could tell me how to set up/access my developments camp, that would be swell.

[TRO]

I was wondering that too while playing the demo. When you switch to "structure" in the Your Promotion section, it shows Development and Training camps, but doesnt let you do anything with them. But I think one of the things fixed in the first patch had to do with negotiating with another fed to become a minor league fed...

You're from the UK, yes?

How easy was it paying for the game in dollars?

[RaBbI-tAnGeRiNe]

I just entered the debit card code, and that was that. It's all done automatically.

[Melv]

How much did it cost? I might go buy it now...

[RaBbI-tAnGeRiNe]

I dunno, look up the exchange rate. I can only guess it was £20, give or take a couple of pounds.

[J.C]

I keep getting errors "out of memory" and that really put me off because i don't want to pay for it then i can't play it.

[Melv]

I just checked, and for anyone who's interested, it's 19.1024 GBP.

So about 19 quid.

[Melv]

I keep getting errors "out of memory" and that really put me off because i don't want to pay for it then i can't play it.
I got them too, but once I restarted my computer, it was fine.

Last question, RaBiD - what did you put in as your 'state'? It's only got the U.S., and you have to put something in. Does it really matter what you put there?

[RaBbI-tAnGeRiNe]

I think I left it blank, or whatever the default state was. As long as you fill in the asterisk stuff (you could just make this stuff up, they don't care) and your card number, it'll be fine.

[Melv]

The state is one of the required things, and it doesn't accept anything. I'll just choose one and go for it.

Now they better take Solo as a part of Visa...

[Melv]

:( - looks like I'll be asking for a shot of my mum's card and give her the cash then. They don't take Solo.

[Donde]

Fucking great. With assistance from the editor, I have made WWE the only promotion. But for some fucking reason, there are no promotions available to me to start the game with, and the only user name is "You". In other words, I am trying to play as WWE, which is in my data file, but it will not let me. Any help, because I did pay for this stupid game, yet I can't play it.

[Melv]

I've tried for the past 10 minutes to buy this, using 2 different cards. Every time, though, I get this stupid credit card database error.

So fuck it, I'm not buying it.

[Melv]

Oh, and see if about 6 different things come up on my mum's credit card bill?

I'll be sueing.

[The_Mike]

I really wish people would learn to read the documentation or at least take 30 seconds to look at the tech support forum.

[Melv]

I went to that elicense website, the one that run the thing, to look and see if I could fix the error. The error I got (20) wasn't even listed there.

I'm not too trusting of ordering it online if it's as shoddy as this sometimes.

[Donde]

Not trying to be irritating guys, but I paid 35 bucks for this game and if anyone could attempt to help me it would be much appreciated. The wierd thing is, when I go into editor and make a new promotion, I can play as it, but never my made up WWE. Fucking wierd. :confused:

[TRO]

Sorry, bro... I have no clue... It did that to me too when I was playing the demo... My only advice is to keep downloading the patches when they come out... Maybe someone at the .400 Software message boards can help you..

[msmsammo]

fuck sakes, my old lady wont let me use her credit card! She thinks its too risky, and people say this and that! Is there any other way of getting it? Like a bank order? I live in Australia so it is gonna cost me like $70? I aint getting my money exchanged, would take for ever to get from here to america! Also dont have no cheques! So where does this leave me? Fucked I guess, any ideas

[Donde]

Rabid, any idea about my inquiry?

[Lawson]

This game has problems.

I like it but there are a lot of niggling little things that can annoy. They're getting fixed (its onto its 4th patch already, bit like CM4 but quicker and without the term "enhancement pack" added to it) but unfortunately I suspect to fully enjoy a completely-patched game a new game will have to be started. So for the time being we're left with a time-absorbing game which will likely have to be restarted :(

[Donde]

Just wondering if anyone else noticed this:

Turns in this game don't work. I had Edge set for a heel turn, and had him attack and assault Chris Jericho in a tag match. As the means of victory, I actually selected "turn". But when I checked my roster out after the event, the fucker was still a face, awaiting a turn. This happened to me with Rhyno, as well. So I had to fuck around with the editor to make them turn, even though I clearly selected it in the game.

Glitch, or is there something I can do to correct it?

[TRO]

I thought you could have failed turns if the crowd didn't like it or the angle wasn't good enough... But I haven't played since that first day I had the demo, so :dunno:...

[Lawson]

When the segment featuring the turn comes around there should be an option on the right of screen, "Deal With Turns" (or something similar), you go into that where you can confirm the turn.

[TRO]

Oh, right... Yeah, it's in the results of your show...

[WWF Melbourne]

I live is Australian too and $70 for a game is way too much. Is there a demo version avaiable on the net?

[DJAOAS]

I'll have to wait till i get piad to buy this. but the demo was awesome. I don't mind playing in the fictional world and hour spend on the editor is all you'll need.

Plus to the people who were moaning about low ratings, what would be the point if you were gonna get matches rated at 90 straight away? It's not a challenge and you'll be bored in days. Have you tried looking at where your event is being held. then looking at the number of fans for different kinds of wrestling. and then changing your style to suit (in the portrayed as menu in the your promotion screen, i think)

Plus the game doesn't automatically select to run shows in your territory or country. So you could have workers that are mega over in the states and unknown in the orient. And when you put these guys in the main-event over japanese workers on a japanese show it ain't good. also, if your workers can only speak english and you send them out to do an interview in japan or mexico, no-one understands what they're saying, same with the japanese and mexican guys in the states. plus, if you don't have enough staff (or skilled enough staff) no-one can hear anything through the PA anyway.

This game is what EWR wasn't. tough. why? because it's realistic. very realistic (yes, i realise it's set in a fantasy world.) you have to have everything covered and i think that's great. There's a handbook for you to read on the front page of the game. It's just stupid to complain about the game when the info's right there.

[Donde]

How do you create a developmental fed? I've tried to make OVW, but have no clue how.

[J.C]

I went to that elicense website, the one that run the thing, to look and see if I could fix the error. The error I got (20) wasn't even listed there.

I'm not too trusting of ordering it online if it's as shoddy as this sometimes.

I don't know if you have it now or not, but i am pretty sure i had this error and i found out i was putting UK in stead of United Kingdom. Don't know if this will help or not

[Rex]

Can someone tell me where you download WWE wrestlers before I do my trial?

[J.C]

http://www.400softwarestudios.com/invboard/upload/index.php?showforum=70

You can get it there and you can also download the latest patch

[The Mackem]

I've got it but haven't played on it much, I deleted all the original data and installed the first rave x patch. Just haven't got the time.

Glad I didn't pay for it :cool:

[Assface]

Howd u get it...I been looking for a free version for days

[S.H. Styles]

Howd u get it...I been looking for a free version for days

Its not free, you have to pay $34.95

[Justin-Credible]

Has anyone been sucsessful on cracking this game yet?

[Assface]

Dont think so..as I cant find anything!

[RaBbI-tAnGeRiNe]

Someone thought they'd cracked the game, then ended up messing everyone's computer up. So by all means, download it.

Or shut the fuck up, and pay for the damn thing. You know, whatever's more convenient.

[Assface]

Im only planning on stealing it until the end of June. When I wont have to worry about money. Then Ill be happy.

[jello_bob]

good luck finding it... i've looked for the past 3 days. NO LUCK

[Justin-Credible]

Anybody find this game cracked yet?

[The Great Dave]

I had a version of the game cracked, but it was only version 1. They're on version 1.19 or some shit now, and version 1 really isn't worth playing. PM me if you need more.

[Donde]

Playing the game illegally is pathetic.

[The Great Dave]

If the game was actually any good I may agree with you.

[Donde]

Either way, considering there were people that actually paid, it sickens me for people to try to play it illegally.

If it's not any good, then why go through the trouble and risk of getting a cracked version? Shit, Adam did give you plenty of free games, didn't he?

[The Great Dave]

I got the cracked version because 1 day isn't enough to judge a game like TEW. Besides, I'm sure you've downloaded something in your lifetime that other people have payed for.

[Donde]

Not 30+ dollars for a product of which the developer has given me so many great, free games. You refuse to support someone who has entertained you so many times for free, and for this, you are despicable.

[Crazy_Vasey]

There will be no discussion of how and where to obtain cracked versions of this game on this forum. If you want the game, you can damn well buy it.

[Justin-Credible]

Thats stupid. Why pay 30+ plus dollars when you could play for free. Only people that dont like that there is a cracked version are the whiney people who were stupid enough to actually have bought this game.

[Donde]

Read what this forum's mod just said, bright one.

[Crazy_Vasey]

Thats stupid. Why pay 30+ plus dollars when you could play for free. Only people that dont like that there is a cracked version are the whiney people who were stupid enough to actually have bought this game.

I don't even have the vaguest interest in this game. I haven't played a version of EW in years. Yet I still find this position of yours disgusting. If everyone took this attitude, we'd only have tetris and space invader clones to play, because no-one would be able to make any money out of computer games. Do you realise how innately self-destructive this attitude of yours is?

Donde, to be fair, I only said how and where to get it. He didn't actually say anything on those points.

[The Great Dave]

Not 30+ dollars for a product of which the developer has given me so many great, free games. You refuse to support someone who has entertained you so many times for free, and for this, you are despicable.

So playing the game for one day because 400 studios allow it is fine, but playing it for longer by using a crack makes me despicable? If I liked the game, I would have bought it, what's the difference between that mentality and the one 400 Studios have of letting you play a demo of it first? I've played about 3-4 days worth of it with this crack, before deciding it was shit.

[Donde]

You are completely missing the point.

[TRO]

You two should hook up...

[S.H. Styles]

:lol:

What version are they up to now? Any changes?

[TRO]

Do they have more angles yet?

[Nighthawk]

I agree. People that play the game illegally should be ashamed. If it's garbage, then just don't play it, it's simple.

And btw, you are a fine stud of a man.

Hahaha. :)

Errrr... yeah, I'm not really a big fan of the game. The demo blew.

Point is your ripping off Adam Ryland not some faceless business.

[Justin-Credible]

The point is that Adam is charging to much for this b-rate game.

[Crazy_Vasey]

If you feel it's overpriced, then do the same thing you do when you see something you'd like to have in a shop but feel it's too expensive: do without.

[The Great Dave]

I agree. People that play the game illegally should be ashamed. If it's garbage, then just don't play it, it's simple.

:)

Well, I'm not feeling especially ashamed. Mainly because I've barely actually played it, and partly because I would never have bought it anyway, so I don't feel like I'm ripping him off. You don't need to tell me my logic is fucking stupid, cos I know it. But that's how I'm seeing it.


Point is your ripping off Adam Ryland not some faceless business.


Ryland is an employee at a "faceless business". I doubt he's payed on commission anyways

[Assface]

Any cracks found yet...I would need it...

[Justin-Credible]

"Warfare" was too misleading, I guess.

[Mike Skillz]

Dont buy it just download a cracked version of the game.

fine, so tell me where from!

[Assface]

Yes...Tell

[whateverandeveramen]

I haven't played this for years, is the paid version better then the old non paid version and worth spending out on? I want something to play to waste bit of time.

I heard paid version doesn't have real wrestler names, I take it their is an unofficial update you can download that will correct this?

Cheers

[whateverandeveramen]

Is the free one still available for download anywhere?

[The_Mike]

I haven't played it enough to say if it's any better than the previous installments (which I played all intensively) but you can get a demo to give it a whirl. Fully functional, but you can only do one month of progression.

Yes, there are freeware updates with real stats and names available from third-party sources.

Don't know where the older versions would be available, but searching Google for Extreme Warfare Revenge will probably turn up something.

You need internet access to register. Not "to play", but to register, which is a bit of a cheek really but there you go.

What you can do though is download and register the game on a PC with internet access, then migrate the license to another machine. I don't know the details though, but the official site should have something up about that, probably in their FAQs.

Can you use 'real' data in the demos? And I'd like to find a crack too, until I get a card the picky gits actually accept.

I did try to buy the game legitimately, but their server kept screwing up as I tried to register and their response was a shrug of the shoulders and a "it's probably your fault" attitude.

Yeah ...a guy from Holland, Fahr cracked it. He was part of an efed that I was in.

[Hlebsfall]

Could someone run us through how to use this crack, because i cant seem to get it to work. I put the files in the game directory, and all I get is an error message when I try to run the game. And when I take the files out and go into the game, I can't even seem to be able to find the registration form which it says you need to fill out.

[Illusion]

Same thing for me:(

[Hlebsfall]

I think what you need to do is download an original version of the game, rather than the 1.3.4 version currently on the site. I'm just about to try it now.

[The_Mike]

That may be the problem, I've found other sites with the same crack under the heading TEW v 1.1.4

Still, I've no idea where to get an original version of the game, and my problem is it keeps telling me my license has expired. There's no "Begin Trial" button and no registration form to fill out, so I can't really follow the instructions. All I can do is click License or Purchase or Exit.

[Brian M.]

Yeah, every crack on the 'net for this game seems to be for the original version, which is nowhere to be found.

[Fanny Batter]

Bought this last month. Way better than EWR. I'm WWE at the moment, in June 2006 (started in August 2005). Next PPV is ECW One Night Stand, which is 6 days away. I forgot to contact Sandman, Sabu and the like (I can't even have Dreamer or Raven, as they're on written TNA contracts). However, I've got some good talent on my main roster that would put on good matches, so that's fine. I've got Styles and Gertner, so commentary is fine. I'll have a report after it's been booked.

[J.C]

Should have waited a month or two, the TEW 2005 is out soon.

[Fanny Batter]

Nah. I don't like the look of the new interface.

[Fanny Batter]

My next PPV card. I've hired a piss load of guys since the start of the game in August 2005:


WWE Vengeance (Raw PPV - 9th. July 2006)

World Heavyweight Title match: Christian (c) vs. Colt Cabana w/CM Punk

- The Saints were (heel) tag champs from NYR to Backlash, where they lost to Benoit and Jericho in a MOTYC Ladder match. Punk then decided he wanted a title shot, and used Cabana to assault Christian (beat HHH at Mania after turning face pre-Rumble). Bischoff made a 4-Way #1 Contenders match between Punk, Cabana, Benoit and Jericho on Raw. Cabana pinned Benoit while Punk was brawling with Y2J. The Saints looked to be heading for a split, after Punk "accidently" cost Colt a match to Jericho a week later. However, they've since put their differences aside, with Punk promising to help Cabana win the title in return for a title match at Summerslam. With Punk in Colt's corner, can Christian possibly retain the title?

World Tag-Team Championship match: Benoit and Jericho (c) vs. Monster & Machine

- After winning the tag-titles at Backlash, Benoit and Jericho (faces) put out an open challenge to any tag-team. Abyss and Homocide, both undefeated in singles competion, came out, but the teams were seperated. Eric Bischoff made a #1 Contenders Tag Tournament, with the winners facing the Canadians at Vengeance. Abyss & 'Cide, now Monster and Machine, defeated Eugene & Chad Collyer, Hurricane & Rosey and AMW to win the tournament. Can Benoit and Jericho retain against the undefeated challengers.

WWE IC Title match: Batista (c) vs. Shelton Benjamin

- Batista, now back in the evil Evolution, won a tournament in January to win the vacant IC Title. Since then, he has destroyed everybody in his path. However, in an early June edition of Raw, Shelton defeated Batista in non-title competition. This forced Eric Bischoff to make this match. Batista has promised that Shelton's victory was a fluke. Benjamin has replied not by words, but by winning match after match. Can Shelton Benjamin upset Batista to become IC Champion?

Grudge match: Triple H and Ric Flair vs. Rock and Undertaker

- After failing to recapture the World Title at Backlash, HHH returned to his evil ways, taking out numerous superstars with a sledgehammer. The Rock promised to get revenge for all of the fallen superstars, but was attacked from behind by Flair. The next week, Rock was once again outnumbered, but was saved by Undertaker. Rock and Taker have now formed an unlikely alliance against Evolution. Can they defeat the evil duo at Vengeance?

Referee Discretion match: Edge vs. Matt Hardy

- The violent wars between Edge (heel) and Hardy (face) have waged for months. After a No Contest at Backlash, where Edge and Hardy both used chairs on each other, both men have made it clear that they do not want to pin the other wrestlers shoulders to the mat. So Eric Bischoff announced the first ever "Referee Discretion match" - The only way to win is to punish your opponent so much that the referee is forced to stop the match. The official is under strict orders to remain leniant, so the match will only be stopped when one man is truly incapacitated, be it due to excessive blood loss or a wrestler passing out. Who, if either man, will survive?

Rey Mysterio and Cactus Jack vs. William Regal and Big Show

- After being traded to Raw in mid-May, Rey Mysterio was immediately being hunted down by the unlikely duo of William Regal and Big Show. Show detests Mysterio because "he's a little man in a giant world" and Regal hates him because "Mexican's have no business in my business" Thus, they have teamed up to take Rey out of Raw. Once it looked like Show and Regal had Rey cornered, Cactus Jack (yes, Foley), another draftee, made the save with a 2x4. Thus, this tag match was made. Can Rey prove that he belongs, or will Show and Regal take Rey out before he truly gets started?

20-Man Hardcore Battle Royal for the Hardcore Title: Paticipants below,

- Champion, Muhammed Hassan w/Daivari - heel
- Chris Harris (1/2 of AMW) - face
- James Storm (1/2 of AMW) - face
- Monty Brown - face
- Val Venis (1/2 of The Veterans) - face
- Steven Richards (1/2 of The Veterans) - face
- Michael Shane - heel
- Chad Collyer (1/2 of W.L.T.W.) - face
- Eugene (1/2 of W.L.T.W.) - face
- Hurricane (1/2 of Justice League) - face
- Rosey (1/2 of Justice League) - face
- Chris Masters - heel
- Chase Stevens (1/2 of The Naturals) w/ Trish - heel
- Andy Douglas (1/2 of The Naturals) w/Trish - heel
- X-Pac - face
- Doug Basham - heel
- Simon Dean (1/2 of Fitness Freaks) - heel
- Sonny Siaki (1/2 of Fitness Freaks) - heel
- Rob Conway (1/2 of La Resistance) - heel
- Rene Dupree (1/2 of La Resistance) - heel

- The 7 teams are filler. Hassan won the title on Raw in early June, thanks to Doug Basham (he pinned Monty Brown in a 10-man Battle Royal, after Monty dominated) Brown has chased the itle since, without prevail. Can he finally capture the belt? However, to win he'll have to get past the rookie Chris Masters, undefeated since his return 2 months ago. Can Masters "keep the streak"? Then there's Basham, who is seemingly Hassan's insurance policy. Will his desire for gold overcome that partnership? Or will Hassan somehow escape with the belt?



Post predictions here.

[Fanny Batter]

Look up. Look up, I tell you.

[Fanny Batter]

I've got an April 99 game going at the moment, and am now in May. Most of my wrestlers have pretty bad basics, so I've hired old guys like The Mountie, Jushin Liger, Ultimo Dragon, Bob Backlund and THE WILD SAMOANS~! to job to the lesser guys, to improve their ringwork and overness. I'm looking to put the tag titles on Pete Gas and Rodney by the end of the year, with Joey Abs as the Hardcore Champion.

[Jennie Bomb]

Nah. I don't like the look of the new interface.

The new interface is based on the WreSpi interface, which is far simpler and easier to navigate than the TEW and even EWR interfaces...

[Sean]

Look who it is! :eek:

[Fanny Batter]

The new TEW 2005 demo is out. My opinion is that it will be fucking brilliant with real life data, and a must buy. I cannot get into the Cornellverse, so I'll wait for the updates before I buy it.

[JRSlim21]

Yea. I downloaded it and it's crazier than before. 2 thumbs up for it.

[androd]

Where can I get this?

[The_Mike]

www.greydogsoftware.com

I'm liking it. My only complaint would be that it is pretty unforgiving. I got a B+ for a show with a global promotion, and it claimed that the show hurt my overall popularity. Same deal with the angles, it's far too hard to operate one because of how it sets up 'catalysts' and 'targets'.

[androd]

^^^

It's been the same on my side... :(

[The_Mike]

I've been browsing the message forum at greydogsoftware, and a few people have noted their own difficulty, always to be told "Just be consistent", which I assume means "keep everyone in the same role always" and not "go away". I've tried to create the simplest angles from it though, just to practice, and they mess up the order my guys are in all by themselves. And let's not bother lifting the lid on those crazy "Side 1" vs "Side 2" match dealies.

I've not tried the latest update yet though, and the full version is out tomorrow, so if things are looking smoother I'd definitely get it.

[thegoat]

I seem to remember someone saying a long while ago that when the new one came out the old one would become free... am I imagining that or is it true?

I see no indication but you can always ask at the forums at greydogsoftware.com.

Wear flame-retardant material, though.

[J.C]

I belive someone said they were willing to give away there own licence to someone on here, not sure who said though.

[Ricky]

I guess this is the place to post shows. Just felt like posting it and put in some extra stuff. I'm still using EWR 4.0.

Ok, you know on EWR is there an easy way to get a TV Deal.
