Summary of stuff they talked about:
1. They are looking at adding more filters to the workshop. Things like Fantasy/Real, Moveset, Logic, and maybe even filter by edit points.
2. Patch coming tomorrow that is going to fix some issues with the workshop, they weren't overly specific as to what.
3. Tables. Probably won't be able to do freely manipulated tables, but they might be able to add a table smash as an off the top rope move. Position your opponent on the turn buckle, enter the move and your tag partner or second pulls a table out and you jump through.
4. They are looking into adding more post match options for story telling possibilities. Things like handshakes, hugs, slapping the guys hand away and so forth.
5. Asymmetrical edits. Currently an engine limitation, would require a ton of work to change this, possible but unlikely. It would take a lot of time and wouldn't have much payoff. He joked if they sell a million copies overnight they'll get right on it.
6. Stance on mods. They are all for it, but aren't currently in a position to add any official support. They are open to suggestions from modders to make things easier.
7. Adding skirts to the edit parts. With the way the sprites are rendered it's tough to pull off convincingly, he wants to add them though and they are looking at it. Same with long hair.
8. They are working on lots of the more obvious edit parts like glasses and the like.
9. They are also working on adding more female parts and well as some new stances that look more natural for women.
10. They are looking at improving the selling of moves, make it more convincing when landing big finishers and the like.
11. Story Mode. 2 options they are looking at: Scenario mode like in Fire Pro Special (the Suda51 one), this would be limited by their 30 wrestler roster. Other option is to include a toolbox to create your own stories, if they go that route it would be much much further down the line. Obviously budget limitations keep this from being something major. They also mentioned that Suda51 would probably be down to writing a new story if they do go that route.
12. GM/Promoter mode. A promotion mode is coming, most likely will be based on the GBA management of the ring mode. They are looking for input on what people would like to see in that mode. They want to stress that it hasn't started development yet and they are on a tight budget, so it's not coming for some time.
13. Re-confirmed that custom MP3 support is coming for entrance themes and for in match music. Should be coming sometime in early to mid august. They may also let you change the music in the menus if people want that.
14. In regards to them working with promotions for official character/move packs. They are completely open to it, but the promotions would have to come to them, not the other way around.
15. Instant submissions when opponents are severely damaged. Probably not going to change, suggested you modify your CPU logic to not use weaker submissions when oppoennt is in critical.
16. Entrance belts. Would be very very difficult to have them come out wearing them, however they might be able to have them holding them in their hands, similar to how weapons work. Could then also have them at the ring and usuable as weapons if they go that route.
17. Pre-match fighting during entrances and the like. They are looking into it, but it's tricky.
18. Gradients. Due to splitting everything to multiple layers this would be a pretty insane amount of work for them (more than story and GM mode combined they say), so it's highly unlikely that they are coming. They are however looking at adding a transparency slider to layers, not sure if they can get it working, but they are looking into it.
