Fight Night Champion Trailer: Authentic Brutality

[acarrero]

Why is Cotto getting pummeled by Guerrero? Please...

Yeah I don't want to see blood from round 2 on or in every fight. Just doesn't happen that way.

I love the look of this game. Echoing a couple of comments already made here, I hope EA haven't overdone the damage engine. It's great to see cuts being depicted in such a realistic but only if the way those cuts are inflicted in the fight is equally realistic.

You're not the only one. The graphics look real good, my gameplay, not blood, is my priority.

I much more want to see their stamina video that should be coming in the next week or so. I hate to beat a dead horse, but this video again shows how the fights look like they are from the waist up. You just get the feeling that the fighters are grounded and slugging away.

I know it's slow motion and they are accentuating the big punches, but I really wish the footwork was more on the loose and agile side.

So far, every video has been a toe-2-toe brawl. Is there ANY word they're working on the footwork?

The brutality does look authentic though.

i wouldnt call it authentic brutality, looks more exaggerated to me. Not every fight do you see guys cut and bloody all over the place. Sometimes you dont ever see a cut in a fight and all you get is just swelling. I have a feeling they are going way over the top with the cuts and blood in this game.

I just feel like they are straying more towards the arcadish side with this game with the blood and the story of the guy in prison and such. Just give me real boxers, real arenas, a career mode where you start as an amateur with amateur rules, earn your way as a pro and they build yourself up into a champion with some authentic gameplay and i'm set. I dont need gimmicks like excessive damage or story modes that involve bare knuckle fights.

I don't want to sound too harsh or whiny but Im getting a little tired of these "sizzle" vids

Id like to see the AI in action fighting to their strengths and staying away from their opponents'

Turn off all the flashy casual stuff, maybe put it on that new broadcast cam they say they have........and let us digest the science
