What's your biggest weakness in Fight Night Champion?

[DurtySoufReppin]

I think i get too bored at times and start to lose my discipline..

I have to become a more focused fighter throughout the whole fight and stop being so greedy ..

There's been a few fights I've had stolen from me because I got greedy and my opponent stole the fight from me with a knockout

That fight was crazy because my opponent actually got up 4 times lol (online)

Re: What's your biggest weakness in Fight Night Champion?

I'm a lot better now than I was before but sometimes I try and trade punches instead of sticking to the plan. In my last fight I started out with 50 punches, moved up to 70 and even passed 100 in a round, all because I panicked and traded punches. I still won but could have done better.

I lose focus and allow people to exploit their power punch abilities to often. Another weakness is going online and continue to fight people who fight like that but I can't help it. I'm 0-2 today and I've been hit with a lag switch (seriously would lag himself out of trouble) and I guy who constantly through power punches. I didn't even get up even though I could of just because of him being a bad fighter. Not a good day for me so far.

My weakness was the 1pko's. I was/am very good at avoiding punches without weaving and with minimal stepping. I use the block and head movement mostly. I can fight two or three different gameplans comfortably, but in the end it was the randomness of the 1pko's especially the one's that didn't hit you or the grazing rabbit punches.

If there is one left it is the max height/weight runners that have some skill. I don't always do a great job cutting off the ring.

I always thought this "lag switching" was a myth. However, I fought a guy today where I was beating him all rounds but the first. Towards the end he was getting visibly tired and then things got laggy and he was countering everything I did. I held off and really got conservative with my punches. I ended up knocking him out but I was wondering if he was doing this lag switch thing.

What exactly is that?

Edit: Never mind I just googled it. So lame.

That's my biggest weakness as well. I always want to go for the kill. I fought won guy in world championship mode who was an 85 to my 78. He threw nothing but power punches and pretty much everytime he connected he put me in a stunned state. I stayed on the outside boxing him and making him miss. Around the 6th or 7th round all of his punches were slow and you could tell he was fading while my stamina was at 98%. I went inside and started trading with him and as soon as he caught me with two punches I was stunned and he dropped me for the KO.

Same thing has happened in two or three other fights.

Re: What's your biggest weakness in Fight Night Champion?

Biggest weakness is fighting from the right side of the screen lol My coordination gets all screwed up. Everytime i try to htrow a jab it comes out as a straight right, etc. I'm just so much more comfortable from the other side for whatever reason.

For some reason, I have trouble blocking body punches. Is there something else to it besides holding down the right trigger?

Re: What's your biggest weakness in Fight Night Champion?

My first online fight on Rd4, I won & got a message saying "You bleeping bleep! You ran like a bleep!" I always remember that & trade when I should just cruise. That & letting up if I have a guy really outmatched. I get kayoed alot because of that. Lol.

If you hold it down too much it's supposed to weaken your block, but 80% of my opponents hold it down all the time.

My weakness is head movement, because a lot of my defense is a long range attack using Pavlik. After a 25-5 post patch start, I've just loss three in a row (two against Leonard and 1 against Jermaine Taylor). Two of my losses had a pattern. I used an occasional power modified right uppercut to ward off a jab oriented body attack. Both times I knocked the opponent down. They then started mixing up their jab spams to the head. I rarely get knocked out, but I was KOed in all three fights.

Re: What's your biggest weakness in Fight Night Champion?

I seem to have trouble queuing the correct amount of punches for the combination situation I find myself in. I end up taking stamina hits and losing rounds due to too many punches whiffing.

I also need to reprogram myself to not look for visual cues to punches. In other words, I enter a punch command via the R-Stick and when I don't immediately see the result, whether positive or negative, I start to enter additional punch commands. The CPU gets out of dodge, and I end up throwing anywhere from 2-4 punches that hit air. This does a number on my stamina, leaving me vulnerable to counter attacks.

I have decent knowledge of boxing fundamentals, and if I can overcome this weakness in my game, I feel I could be competitive against most players.

Space... I have a hard time controlling space. I throw jabs that turn into hooks because I'm too close, I throw hooks that miss by a mile.

I don't have confidence in just boxing and winning on the cards.

Re: What's your biggest weakness in Fight Night Champion?

My biggest weakness is still lack of patience. I'm about 30-15 online. With like 8 of my losses coming from me leading on the cards by fighting from a distance, picking my shots, getting in and hitting and back out before I can get hit. At some point I'll get impatient and get inside and start trading too much and getting knocked out. I play most of my matches against higher ranked opponents so it seems I don't have the same power in my punches as my opponents.
