For Starters the single player has had a few minor tweaks which have somewhat improved the flow of the matches. While the reversal system, pin\/kickout mechanics, stamina management give a more strategic feel and invoke a more realistic situation and bring to life the back and forth of the matches as we see them on TV.<\/p>\n
The counters\/reversals now come in major and minor, the first of these has the added advantage of dealing damage but at the loss of two stamina bars.\u00a0 The minor reversals tend to add pace and speed to a match, (albeit with a few drawbacks) and allow the player to get the upper hand without sacrificing too much stamina. These features allow the player to find their own unique play style. (Bro Hug!)<\/p>\n If you have played previous WWE games you will have no doubt encountered the cluster-fuck that was the multi-man matches. Every match either felt like a constant interruption while trying to do a move, or you were caught outside the ring, while someone else got your pin. Well we are in luck this time, if there is enough damage done to you or your opponent, you can roll out of the ring and recover some of your health. You have the option to recover early and get back in the ring or wait till the bar fills completely and come back at full strength.<\/p>\n (Cock shot!)<\/p>\n The targeting system is a lot more refined, with a simple click of the thumb-stick your superstar will target a different opponent and their name will appear above you.\u00a0 The position changes for the tables and ladders have also been improved allowing a better set up for OMG moments and \u201cspots\u201d.<\/p>\n The Taunt system has also been given a more important role (which you should know), as your superstar preforms a successful taunt they will be granted a mid-match buff, this again makes the player see and feel the match playing out closer to how it is presented on TV.\u00a0 Also, the ability to perform apron, turnbuckle and various other \u201carea specific\u201d taunts are welcome.<\/p>\n Making a return this year is the ability to take the fight into the backstage areas such as the Gorilla position, locker room, the bosses office (with boss) and a weapon laden hallway, nothing compared to the days of old but it fits in neatly with this installment and hey who wouldn\u2019t enjoy power bombing their opponent right in front of Vinnie Mac.<\/p>\n (Go fuck your shelves!)<\/p>\n WWE 2K17 is certainly not without its issues, the pacing of the matches (as mentioned earlier) feel like they plod along depending on what reversal is performed, with no ebb and flow. The game play can feel a bit sluggish when playing as the heavy weight classes, and a tad jumpy as the lighter more aerobatic (cruiserweight) weight division. Also While the\u00a0reversals are easier and more defined, they can feel very rigid, the one button approach will perhaps ruffle hardcore players who feel it has been made too easy or that it favors the less experienced player.<\/p>\n The \u201cMy Career\u201d mode still feels very tedious and repetitive and doesn\u2019t make the player feel like they are on their own personal WWE journey. A new feature which lets you cut promos is still very much in the development stages and without actual dialogue, it feels very wooden and hollow.<\/p>\n![\"WWE-2K16-match\"](\"https:\/\/nfornerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/WWE-2K16-match.jpg\")
