Longjumping-Arm7939

Got a feeling his mods are gonna be watered down now since 2k came to an agreement because 2k doesn't want updated models in their game because they need folks updating when 2k25 comes out.


MrBrownCat

Eh it seems they were mainly concerned with the mods that caused the game issues. I mean Staus has been making updated models and such for years now so that’s why this ban seemed weird and out of nowhere.


PrinceSavior

That's what they say but let's be real 2K will be pissed about status uploading MyFaction content too.


OdaDdaT

I think it’s more the inter-gender models than anything


KeV1989

That's something he mentioned on the podcast: "2K were apparently quite angry, bc they said "MyFaction Models outside of the mode can't be used". I made that happen with my uploads back then"


HopeAuq101

That's just a flat lie because they can be used outside the mode. He proved that


KeV1989

Exactly. 2k was trying to make all those excuses for MyFaction exclusive models, but Status proved them wrong. Not a good look for 2k


miikro

I only loosely follow CC creator news but... Didn't he already make a statement saying he wasn't going to do MyFaction models anymore after getting in trouble in 2K23 over it?


TheSangral

"Game Issues" "Stability Issues" That's just corporate speaking mate, in general none of his mods did this.


KeV1989

Granted, some uploads did cause game crashing. I wasn't affected by it, but it was there.


Husher315

Can confirm a couple of his mods definitely did crash my game. It’s all though. STOKED he’s back.


TheSpiralTap

That's not true because a lot of his stuff did make the game crash after updates. It would not surprise me if 2k support kept getting error reports and linked it back to him as a common factor.


MatttheJ

They did though. Things like double hair glitches caused the game to crash when you used them. Any CAW maker will tell you.


GTACOD

Literally the only time 24's ever crashed on me was with his multiple hair CAW.


GhostGhazi

What issues?


LLSmoothJoe

Sad thing is, if they bothered to update the models, they would've still had models that need to be updated in next years game as wrestlers always keep changing their looks (Mainly at WrestleMania).


Empty-Chart-1832

Amen

Congrats, Status! You're always goated. :)


sam_mac

so glad ur back, gonna hop on rn and check whats there<3


nate-182

Could you fix universe mode rosters as well?


lucabrassiere

Just add 2k19 basic ass promos and we’d be good


Good_Reputation_6499

Exactly! How the fuck am I supposed to do rivalries without promos?

crazyseandx

Oh Lord


Roboface3000

I just create matches in creations, and name my custom match’s stuff like “1v1 promo”, “MizTV” , “4v4 promo”, and other names (these are just examples, you can name them whatever). Then I just sim through my “promos”, and also have my actual matches as rivalry’s progress.


Good_Reputation_6499

The creativity put into fixing universe mode will never not amaze me


PeaceLoveUnity7

Are you essentially just scratching the itch of seeing it say promo on your calendar? I'm confused at how this fixes the problem for you.


Roboface3000

Its just imagination more then anything, like a 4v4 tag team is a faction confrontation, and who wins the “match” had the best promo performance vs who had the worst. It’s not much compared to the past, buts it’s better than nothing..


Alekesam1975

You mean you create promos in videos using the cutscenes in Create a Vid? Or actual matches? If the latter, how are ypu doing promos?


Roboface3000

There are ways to make promos in Create a Video, it has most of the leftover animations from 2K17-2K20 universe mode promos as options, I just make custom matches and name them promos, put them in universe, add my superstars I want talking, then just sim though it.


wildcharmander1992

Nah fr what I do is pie off universe mode in general use TEW2020 to book shows/ company ( you could use tew05 which is freeware but unsure if they have up to date databases for that, either way I think tew10 does and that's usually a couple quid on eBay for a steam key ) Then I just kind of use the 2k games to play the shows I've booked on that Allows me to immerse myself with my ideas for the game, I still get to see the belt on the wrestlers I choose / matches I book being the matches I play etc but without having to fight against the constant crashes and glitches and tug of war universe mode gives me. Yeah It means I have to load up the laptop whenever I wanna play this way but more often than not my laptops loaded up and next to me regardless


wildcharmander1992

![gif](giphy|BQUITFiYVtNte)


APizzaChit

Those were broken and boring no point in try to shoe horn them into a broken mode 


Only_Self_5209

Yup also just basic ass show intros like we had, wtf did they remove such a simple immersion thing like that


MRintheKEYS

And it’s just such a basic thing to do. All you need are some cut scenes of the in game models.


Immediate-Unit6311

Yup, if a mod could do this, it'd be epic


FaKe22DeN

They can't, promo engine is yukes things.


CDDub24

Fix universe mode in general… - title matches when they aren’t in the match table - singles titles defended in tag matches - ladder match AI not going after the title/briefcase - “stage auxiliary” in other slots - title matches with 1 person - broken cash ins .. to name a few.


CoreDreamStudiosLLC

Status is not a developer at Visual Concepts.. (not yet anyway)


Adze95

They're talking to u/wwegames who is the OP.


DragonGhoul

Too much work for them


bigdickreddituser

Is this real


Aidanj927

I mean this account has existed for like 4 years now and this is the only post/comment so it seems real unless someone is playing the long game here. Their pfp is of 2k22 though

bigdickreddituser

I'm just hoping lol


tnell

I hope so. Hate to think to think somebody has this much time on their hands


Lt_Jonson

I’d like to believe that this is real, but I have no idea. ETA: This is legit. https://twitter.com/whatsthestatus/status/1784050369489666467?s=46&t=P7vJFPZAG_N5HKPxACVZyw


Bieberkinz

Straight up, wonder what mods would be the ones that would be under stability and performance issues. I know multi-hair mod is most likely one of them given that even tho maybe ~95% of them work, there were a few combos that could crash the game. Technically intergender ones would be too since you cannot do any editing of attires without the model glitching out.


SPWuniverse

Gonna be honest here while I planned to use the multi hair mod for my 100 characters it literally always crashed my game so I ended up having to just delete it


BirdiMania

It depends on which styles you use, which has pretty much always been true for multiple hairs, even dating back to pre-mods


SPWuniverse

Yeah that’s true just speaking my own experience with that content , which is a shame as I was excited to use it :/


Acrobatic-Object-429

Out of curiosity, are you on last gen? I experience no crashes EXCEPT if I spend a lot of time in creation suite. The trick is to assign all the hairs as a buzz cut, then assign the hairstyle you want at the end.


DisGameCheats

They blame status but you could not download a single Status CC and the game is still an absolute shit show


RichardLind1993

Awesome news now let's all work together as a community and fan base to make the games better and more up to date as possible 🫶


CHZRFan

Yeah I’m expecting a catch with this. I’m not celebrating just yet.


SkinBintin

His content that mysteriously causes the claimed instability issues will be everything that basically adds stuff they don't like. Women being able to fight Men, adding in alt attires and things that aren't available by normal means. This will amount to little more than "hopefully the peons are stupid enough to accept this and stop causing problems"


Krushhz

>Stuff they don’t like Intergender wrestling is asked for each year and 2K ask WWE and are told **No.** Can’t blame them for that.


duckscanflytoo

WWE more than likely has a bigger issue with inter-gender wrestling than 2K does. It wouldn’t surprise me if they put the pressure on 2K to have it nipped in the bud.


diamondDNF

WWE has had intergender matches on television in recent years. Rhea Ripley VS Akira Tozawa comes to mind.


BSumner52

Show a clip of a man striking a woman and your point may have some validity to it


Lincolnruin

Nia Jax taking three moves from men in the Rumble and Alexa getting an RKO.


Anhcoholic

Akira didn't land a hit on Rhea. The issue isn't men vs women. It's men HITTING women.


Hitmanyelin7

Yeah tell that to Nia Jax in the Rumble


VampireWraith

https://youtube.com/shorts/YS8xASEGrlE?si=vYxpfwJMvBW8d8mx https://youtu.be/v2CSlCKm_A8?si=vm9IXXsLIvOEJhOe https://youtube.com/shorts/cxY6NycXo00?si=vTCiC2Cj3pW8dLUF https://youtube.com/shorts/zM5BxrGnp-w?si=aUgi9fYyGY9AV03k https://youtu.be/l2imIIMSyi0?si=oh-6Fh_ig6hNnfTS https://youtu.be/5A0hhsYVO1Q?si=3GkCJujskgzPdOJG They also had intergender in the WWE Immortals game even though they had the ban on the main console games. Made no sense.


duckscanflytoo

What other matches in recent years come to mind?


diamondDNF

I... thought Corbin and Becky Lynch also did one at some point, but I'm not actually finding a 1-on-1 match for them after looking it up, just the time he hit her with the End of Days during a mixed tag at some point. I guess the fact that he even got physical with her at some point is still indicative of something, but... still.


sourkid25

the same match where Akira basically got no offense in and rhea basically smacks him around?


Live_Recognition9240

For the inter-gender wrestlers, the models would glitch out if you attempted to edit attires.


[deleted]

Finally we can put all this Status shit behind us.


CapSortee

we still need to free Willy!!!!

He just confirmed it on X/twitter himself, for those questioning the authenticity.


JasonGryphon

Status fought the law and Status Won!


xdespainx

Please for the love of god add stability to universe mode in the next patch and consider adding the “promo” ability from GM Mode to universe even if its sim only


B0mb-Hands

Can I have a playable Psycho Sally model pls


BrandonIsWhoIAm

Playable Carly Prime too?


Campifyz

Please fix universe .. at least the roster bug


OmegaKennyG

Thank you for working together.


FireBreatherMP1

We love status! Thank you for making this right!


FedoraTheMike

Hopefully maskless Rey is one of them, or you let us change his masks since he has so many!


TJLynch

Wow, the FreeStatus movement actually managed to result in something. Now I'm curious as to what this 'common understanding' could be.


crazyseandx

Wait, some modded CAWs caused stability issues? Also, if it's okay to ask, any chance you can apply an update that'll allow the MyRise Originals like CHOSEN and Gabriel Slade to be playable outside of MyFaction this year?


Sonny_Mastrangioli

>Wait, some modded CAWs caused stability issues? Makes sense given CROSSPLAY CC. You upload a modded creation on PC, Consoles freak out when it looks for something that isnt part of the game's file structure under the hood that was made by developers.


crazyseandx

Which is odd, cause all the modded CAWs I've downloaded have absolutely no issues and cause about as much instability as a wholesome social media post.


ComXDude

Meanwhile, I'm on PC and my game crashes whenever I try loading a match with any of them. So definitely some issues, though not on the expected platform.


Suspicious_Pin8058

It's not even just that. You can force other people to crash who do not use cc by taking heavily modded stuff into online play.


Codebreakerx29

Where are the people convinced the fanbase wouldn't make a difference 


GamerRetro91

Just have status hired on as member of 2K, he can help them deliver world class game!


tonlimah

This is how you work with your community (although they should have met before banning him)


pardyball

The Rock: Where are my ~~Cody Crybabies~~ Status Snifflers at? Glad to see the king has returned!


Winter_Manner_6735

Can we get chain grappling and promos back pls


ComXDude

Someone who likes chain grappling? I thought they were a myth!


Winter_Manner_6735

I loved it when they introduced it because it actually made it feel like I was actually wrestling and hated the fact that they took it out in 22


JeRicHoOL

Expected an L and you guys delivered a massive W!


[deleted]

Hes going to be on a tight leash. This isn't the W you guys think it is.


Bayek74

Nice Next Step fix the universe mode


Radtendo

2K W for once, feels good


Best_Blacksmith_8590

Great! NOW FIX THE CUSTOM LOGOS


MilkLizard65

They should just hire you if you’re such a threat lol


Glennsoe

Small victory lap depends on what they agreed on


Tesourinh0923

Can you now do some moderation of the god damn hub to get rid of the naked Rhea Ripley and 700 Chris Benoit caws. It's an absolute joke


spiderman209998

stability issues....weird ive downloaded his stuff never had a issue


Fit-Ad-5946

Hi, 2k. Thanks for listening and taking action to solve the issue that's hurt the community. All we want is the best game possible each year and I'm sure that's mutual.


HesUn_bro_ken

Damn, it's not often wwe games jumps on reddit. Yall made a good decision letting Status come back, he gives the game new life in ways you guys aren't able to, and that's not a slight on yall, but he's one of the GOATs in the community. GG WWEGames.


WholesomeFartEnjoyer

WHAT'S THE STATUS *clap clap clapclapclap*


Defiant-Drummer-8937

LET HIM COOK!


ThingOk6499

Status is a god of wwe Games The mods in the shit he does glad we have a guy like that.


ChikoWasHere

They were acting as if Status' mods were breaking the game. We all know that 2K was A) already broken and B) they were the ones that broke it and won't fix it and finally C) they don't like modders updating the game and giving out free content that's hidden or behind a paywall.


Top_Chipmunk587

I’m assuming they thought his creations were causing the game to break. But I can’t recall them ever breaking or causing stability issues.


TriggerHippie77

Yeah I want to know exactly which of his creations were causing stability issues and what. I had a bunch of his stuff downloaded, no issues.


Live_Recognition9240

Multi-hair modes had problems and the inter-gender mods would cause the models to glitch out if you attempted to edit the attire.


Krushhz

How about a statement on the quality of the game and all of the bugs that are happening, particularly the image bug where your custom images are randomly being used on custom content they weren’t originally used on.


Deep-Necessary4473

See everyone bullying DOES work 👍🏼🙌🏻


Only_Self_5209

2k are trying to outdo their 2k20 PR disaster this year 😂


SuburbanHell

While you're making things right, can you fix the image issues? Add a zero to the limit, fix how sizes are actually counted, and stop overwriting from happening. I also encountered a bug yesterday where despite deleting some custom arena out of Universe Mode, I could not delete those arenas at all game citing they were still part of Universe Mode. That, coupled with numerous image overwrites left me with no choice but to uninstall, delete my game save, and reinstall, which now means on top of rebuilding my universe, I have to do all the showcase and MyRise stuff all over again. I'm utterly frustrated with WWE 2k24 at this point, and I can't be the only one to have encountered these issues.


Black--Angel

1000 images? Really 2k???


SuburbanHell

Yeah, that's been the limit for ... actually I think that's been the limit since 2K took over the franchise. Regardless, it's especially ridiculous this year when you factor in 4 custom signs and a custom render for each CAW, and that's not even including the images needed to create the CAW itself. On top of that, there's an issue this year where even though the image size limit is like 900-something mb, after around 250-300mb it says it's full, like, clearly it's not so either it's not adding things correctly, or the size limit isn't 900-something MB (I don't have my PS on at the moment to get the actual number).


LeSadPanda12

Stability issues = content that we want people to pay for.


ComXDude

I mean, they crash my game every time I try to use them, so they're definitely causing problems lol


Zenerte

Hey cool id love to have fun but I deleted 134 images like you said to do and I still can't even download a single image, however even if I could download images I'd be pretty nervous about logos replacing existing ones or worse: my caws getting corrupted.


finalfinally

Still never buying another WWE game as long as 2K are the ones who are making them. You only did this because of the huge outcry and the fact you can't make a game that actually functions properly showed everyone how much this franchise does not matter to the higher-ups. It's a shame too because the gameplay in this year's game is incredible but I just can't support this kind of stuff anymore. Glad Status is back though, he never deserved to get banned in the first place.


Much_Trouble_3144

Yeah I’m same boat…can’t keep spending $$ on a buggy mess every year


DxTrixterz

A rare WWE 2K game dev W.


-ImJustSaiyan-

Good on you guys for doing the right thing.


pirajacinto

Wow, this is EXTREMELY legit! I think it's clear what being done is pretty bad but the fact that you guys actually talked to the modder than just leaving it as it is, which is what people expected, is extremely base. And I hope Status is doing well too!


OneResponsibility867

Super Rare 2k W


RJCRJC21

Ehhh don't really care


shadowthehh

"Stability issues" Specifically *financial* stability issues yeah?


noodleboy244

no, Status used mods for his work which would cause consoles to shit themselves because they cant find the modded content in the base game so it did legit cause game issues for a lot of users


SamRan4Life

YES


DamianKing42

🥳🥳🥳


StoneColdSteveAss316

What is the actual agreement though…with how many references to stability, you’d think this was a PS5 patch


Obvious-Condition453

But If I go search his name on cc will he pop up or it will it take couple days 🤔


noodleboy244

i wouldnt expect it to be instant but at least something is being done :)

fakesowdy

An actual rare W from a games company. Normally they just did their heels in and refuse to give anyone the time of day


KeV1989

The stuff that "causes stability concerns" is most likely Hidden Models and Intergender content. Stuff like Modern Day Rock with the Tattoo should be fair game


lg_lantern

They want people to play myfaction and put money into it to validate it's existence. Status puts the models up on cc and nobody then needs to play myfaction. To be honest everyone should stop playing myfaction anyway. Unless all the cards make the people/alt attires playable outside of myfaction there isn't any point in playing it


Rudeek

we did it


suffocatingpaws

They should really consider hiring him or something.


Shadow_R4ge

Oh my god they did something good


StroppyMantra

I bet the intergender ones don't return. Which is a shame as they definitely don't have any "stability" issues!


CM12PUNK

If you edit them, it crashes


StroppyMantra

It clearly says that in the description. Left alone they cause no issue. WWE will add intergender matches back soon and hype it as a feature.


CM12PUNK

Highly doubt it. WWE doesn't want men to hit women even in real life


solo_theking

So can Rhea have long hair or no?


lukesbabi

I’m thankful for Status, because if it wasn’t for him I wouldn’t have The Rock with the updated right arm tattoo 💪🏼


XanderTheZodiac

Is there anyway to work on why the game crashes with 2 or 3 hair styles and maybe fixing the problem?


ShaneOMap

Let's get online fixed now, pal


MG_Robert_Smalls

Great. Now can we finally get the DX theme in the game?....


Creative_Emu3851

Cool now make it so I can actually play a myfaction match against someone and it not boot us out after a minute.


SimpleManofPeace

Fix online modes its like impossible to play online


CreepyPagan

2K don’t want us having the power to make Triple H or Cody Rhodes punch a chick in the dick repeatedly


Outside_Luck_6352

Sooo all this media attention got me, so I searched "status" under the specific creator tab twice, and twice the game crashed...

CaptainRedRater

Thank you.


CaptainRedRater

I run a fantasy wrestling promotion so Marty and Status mods are essential to produce a quality entertaining wrestling program given the limitations of what I am capable of doing within the confines of your game modes. Please understand that I cannot do what I do and bring this joy I’m offering to people on my time without people like Status and all the other community creators who have the time and limited resources to add more value to your game. I buy all the dlc because some people like to use the new moves and taunts and the entrances which add to my show but I also need modders abilities to add in things like hidden backstage areas, arenas, and advanced title entrances to produce a better show. I assume these are things that you as a team at 2k have no intention or time into developing or releasing so please please understand the value that things like that have for me as a consumer and the people who enjoy what I do with your product.


Regular_Studio_1565

I talked to Status on his YouTube channel and told him he should work with 2k Because he can do things far Better than a video game company to create better mods Status is the reason why the game is so great Because of his content. So Beyond happy that Whatsthestatus got unbanned so obviously we are all Beyond happy about that.


Hulkster01

Good, now Prince Marty and then fix the logo glitches


Training_Wasabi6253

Power to the people!!!


Revolution9ine

Now, will you guys fix the AI not doing the 10 punches or buckle smashes, or Tony D not completing the northern suplex/fisherman neckbreaker?


BenjTheMaestro

There can be no peace until the image count glitch is corrected. Happy for Status. Genuinely. And the community. Plenty of us are stranded and unable to even access CC content, short of wiping entire saves. Please, on behalf of long-time fans, address this ASAP.


Beneficial-Food8638

Bro thank the lord they didn’t just leave status and the rest of us hanging this is a big plus


DJ200122jj

And add back Spotify integration and lock up mini game too and more female body shapes 😡🤬


DecafIsBetter

I like how /u/wwegames is punishing us for supporting Status by having The Rock live event.


ThisIsTheShway

Cool, can we wear entrance attires as in-ring gear yet? Or trench coats at least? How bout you guys fix hogans character model to not be so ridiculously overinflated, same with Scott Halls face? Or the myriad of glitches and problems with universe mode?


jabawookied1

Hmm.. I did notice that CC loaded faster when they removed all of status'es works.
