Re: Patch is up

My impressions after 15+ matches offline A.I., Online Multiplayer against players who actually watch the sport and have an understanding of the sweet science. Also against players who do not watch the sport, but love fightin' games
Game Play Updates

- Adjusted the locomotion speed at close proximity so that your opponent can no longer trap you with glued feet This adjustment has done wonders playing online/offline multiplayer. Plant pop-pop-pop, step back, side to side, and no force field bringing us back together. Amazing!!

- Increased the stamina cost when continually punching
I'm already economical with my punches, but some online cats aren't; so easy victories-my opponent seemed winded after just several rounds of throwing and missing.

- Increased stamina loss when continually weaving
I don't continually do this, a few opponents did, but I could not see there stamina effects. Though after a few rounds, they didn't do it as often.

- Increased stamina loss for users that spam upper body movement
I have already seen a decrease in this, but it is still early for final judgement.

- Can no longer perform a perfect block when spamming the block
No comment yet, haven't met a block spam master.

- Increased the stamina cost when continually running away from your opponent
I don't run continually, so can't say for sure. Most opponents didn't box defensively.

- No illegal blows can be thrown by either user when one user is in a stun state
This works and I like it.

- Increased stamina cost of Haymakers
Can't see opponents stamina meter to see if it has a big effect, but on mine I saw my stamina drop about 25% more than previous.

- Tuned punch accuracy when opponents are moving their head
I love this as well. Really has lowered punch landed percentages against me. I had a match where my opponents connects were in 40% percentage range.

- Reduced locomotion speed when throwing punch combos
I noticed some of this against a continuous body spammer. Though he/she's strategy was not an issue, because we aren't glued together anymore.
