    Yea i've been active on here the last few days. Been prepping for 3 finals over 2 days sooo... procrastinating.

    But will the game try and support 6 sided rings? 4 is a given but what about 6 sided rings or an 8 sided cage etc?

    Sorry for the delay. No plans for anything other than a four sided ring just yet. I'm curious to see how they handle the ring in the new TNA game...

    Awsome thanks Dave. So one more thing for the Mod Community to tackle!

    6 Sided ring seems like it could either detract or add to gameplay. It will change thats for sure
  1.  
    I have a question about the actual ring sides on the floor. Will there be a damage modifier if a move lands not on a mat? Or will floor damage be the same all over the area.
  2.  
    and if you go there, will doing a move on top of a weapon do more damage?
  3.  
    I'd like to be able to pull up the mats outside the ring and have damage & blood modifiers for moves done on the concrete. As far as the 6-sided ring, I remember you saying one of the obstacles was the control scheme for throwing your opponent into 6 sets of ropes and 6 turnbuckles. What about making irish whips into the ropes a quick grapple and irish whips into the turnbuckles a medium grapple? That way you'd only have 6 possible directions for each situation instead of trying to fit all 12 onto the d-pad at once.

    Yeah it's the way our direction controls work that make 6-sided rings a tough one. We'd want you to be able to use all ropes and turnbuckles otherwise what's the point of having a six-sided ring if it doesn't interact any differently?

    If I was a TNA fan I'd say "It would look really cuuuuelll" but that's not the case so there's no point in a 6 sided ring.

    6-sided rings really aren't all the intriguing to me. Honestly, I haven't seen the ring shape really used as anything other than containing the action and restricting run-ins slightly. RoH does a great job without it as do most in the world. All in all, it'd be a cool add on later, but now point now.
