No So basically, loading up three eras is going to give you somewhere around 10-12 sets at a time to work with in the Game Table. That should cover most situations. If we find that the server can handle more load than that, we might expand it, but we're not going to evaluate that until down the road. Maybe I'm not entirely clear here. If we can only work with certain sets what about somebody like Wolf whose career spans around 30 sets? Also, since we're being given NB first that will give us access to many guys outside of their original sets. For example, Kill Prey's NB card is basically his original 2114 (?) card, right. So when we order 2114 we won't need Kill Prey? Maybe that's not a question, just trying to understand how it works, I guess. |

All of the cards in NB are technically "new" cards ... they're all labeled as GWF New Beginning on the nameplate, and that's the "set" they belong to in the Stat Tracker database. So for your Kill Prey example, it'll work something like this:
* When you buy NB/Subversion, it will include two versions of him: the NB version and the 2121 SE version.
* When you load up the Game Table, you'll see all of those GWF years as Locker Rooms that you can open and choose wrestlers out of. So if you open GWF 2119 or 2120, they both have Kill Prey in them, each one being the NB version. When you open up GWF 2121 or 2122, they both have Kill Prey as well, but it's the SE version.
* When we get around to releasing GWF 2114, it will have that version of Kill Prey, too, since it's technically a little different than the NB version. Even if that difference is only in the fact that the nameplate says 2114 instead of New Beginning, that's good enough for me to make a new card for it in the database.
So for Wolf, you'll get the appropriate version of Wolf in every year that you load into the Game Table. If you load up the War Games era, for example, each year contained therein will have a copy of Wolf for you to open - it's not like you'll have to load 2087 to get that version of him. Every game year that you load will have the most current version of every wrestler on its roster.
I hope that answers all of your questions, Jeff. If not, ask more!

I think this has been asked before, but will a guy like Wolf show 'character progression'
He never really got upgraded or downgraded, but surely, since we now have the ability to do so, his move set changed over time.. Its a little different from, say Pulsar, who has a clear path of progression.

Its a little different from, say Pulsar, who has a clear path of progression. This is more a question for Osk. Now, having said that, I can certainly make an argument for tweaking his movelist a little as time goes on, perhaps adding in the Howling Moonsault a little early, that sort of thing. I think that's probably something that'll get decided as we go forward. |

Bizarre question but it just popped up in my head and I thought it will be fun to ask. Okay, here it goes...
Does COTGOnline work on the Wii Internet Browser? ;D
We all know it's the only way we're going to get some sort of COTG video game. I'd try myself but I haven't purchesed COTG Online yet.

It should .... I see no reason it wouldn't, honestly. I doubt that the drop-down menus work properly, but other than that, it should work just fine.
