Lowkey makes me wanna do a file just to see how toxic the backstage… like putting people together who I know damn well shouldn’t be, just to see drama unfold

 

[Chris]

Imagine the cursed booking committee you could make

 

[Daddy Deville]

when someone in the Ryland universe has a backstage fight because someone wanted to use real wood for a table spot

Next journal announces the update of geo tags which seems great for making the universe more realistic. It basically will lock smaller companies to certain venues or a smaller section of a region instead of them running all over it. The example used was a Glaswegian company that's tiny would only run out of Glasgow not all around Scotland until they get bigger

I hope that's an option you can turn on and off, rather than having that as a set thing though

Almost every new feature is for the new game so people don't bitch about change tbh and even if it's not easily toggleable, you just edit the mod before you start and remove any geo tags they have included already

That's great. It's been a while since the last new one... I forgot they usually handle it like that.

It's also mostly just cosmetic anyway. In 2020 there was no difference if a small Scottish company ran Glasgow or Edinburgh because the game only bases things off your popularity in Scotland. It will still only be basing this off your popularity in Scotland but your venue name will be more realistic.

Like Rhode Island Pro Wrestling in the Cverse tends to always run this biker bad in Massachusetts due to it being the best fit, but I imagine you could geolock it to Rhode Island now but it wouldn't actually affect anything bc Rhode Island and the biker bar are treated the same essentially as they're in the same region

I'm certain to fix that issue as well Ryland and Co. are gonna add even more venues.

For the Cverse, simply adding generic city venues with variable attendance based on size helped a lot. Also in the journal he says that's been made more realistic so small population regions do now have a limit even if your company is white hot in popularity lol I never noticed it that bad tho, my huge 100k shows in the Cverse I've simmed were only in big American cities

I do hope for more actual venues not cities tho for the Cverse just bc they're more fun for me than just seeing that a show took place in "Boston" or whatever

 

[Chris]

Also reading through the previous journals again rn bc I'm bored and one minor thing I absolutely love is you can now assign senior refs and road agents. Also stooges sounds hilarious, I can't wait to get some of them

 

[Chris]

When deciding whether the fans will turn against a worker, the company size is now taken into account; this means that smaller companies will have slightly more tolerant fans and not expect such high minimum standards. This is something that was requested by a few people.

Missed this one from D2 also, fucking thank God lmao booking indies with fans turning on half your starting roster before you can actually fix it was a nightmare sometimes

I didn’t see a thread specifically for this so hopefully it’s not a big deal. Anyone play Pro Wrestling Sim?

@Hidden Blaze and @Daddy Deville both do for sure, I'd say any of you might as well go ahead and make a thread for it. Otherwise I don't really care if it's here instead since the games are so similar
