Could you really feel the difference in Ratings.....like will Ali get his butt whooped quickly if he tries to lay on and body blow with Big George?????


Powerful Ratings are key IMO....Even a 3 point difference in something should be really felt

Overall it sounds like a step in the right direction but its not sounding too good for the Legacy mode. Sounds pretty standard and cookie cutter rather than cutting edge. I'm going to assume that your rise to the top in that mode will still include fights with legends.

You guys ask questions. I am going to do a community blog come Friday. So if there is a few things you wanna know, ask away and I will get to as many of the key questions as possible.

Hope you liked the read guys.

One thing I would like cleared up is the reach factor... When me and my friends would play we had to ban lennox lewis and fighters with huge reach because it was terribly easy to keep people on the outside punching. Inside fighters have a terrible disadvantage. It's great they focused on the inside, but if you make it to where someone can't get there, shouldn't that be the first focus?

It depends. Someone like Lennox was dominant because he could keep most at bay with his jab. Ali and Liston were no different.

But that's where some fighters who were great at getting inside need to get a bit of an advantage too. Tyson was tremendous at getting in the phone booth.
So EA needs to make sure fighters like him are excellent at the bob-and-weave to get in close.

But I personally would love to have a challenge in Legacy Mode when facing a champion with a long dominant jab. More strategy comes into play.
