Maybe if they incorporate particular animations that show fatigue, that would give an idea of where things are.
Lol no. I turn all of that off.

yes I can. But my comment was more motivated thinking of UFC '09 specifically pre-patch vs post patch.



if you're playing an online opponent it went from being more balanced using more legit fight strategies to win - to being more catered to who is the better gamer. Biggest point here is I MAY want it off, but my opponent now has an advantage I don't have and now feel like maybe I should have it on and it changes the dynamic of the game.

Obviously you can turn those things off, but in my opinion it was better they didn't exist at all.

They already had this and it worked!

once you can see under the hood, it changes everything, you (or other games) look at things differently - and many times in contrast to how you would have viewed it before relating it to the sport, rather than the understanding how the game works.

For example, knowing a jab is 2 damage and a straight is 4 damage and the animation is executed in the same time and has the same reach... guess who's not jabbing online? Everybody.

To be clear that example isn't from anything in particular, but just illustrates how HUD's, Stamina indicators etc.. getting under the hood can and will alter perceptions and in many instances for the negative. When the controls are sluggish and my guy starts huffing air, I'm throwing too much (or spamming high kicks) ... what's wrong with naturally learning to conserve more rather than having an exact meter that fills and depletes, that your eyes shift to etc. It's not more 'sim', to me having a sense of what you've been doing, and strategizing, plus a bit of the unknown is more exciting.
