Having said that, button prompts are still noticeable on-screen, as the EA team showed off an example submission exchange where players were prompted to move the analog sticks in certain directions to apply specific chokes. https://www.shacknews.com/article/13...-first-preview But yeah, obviously also remain skeptical. Developers are great at selling their game. We'll have to see actual gameplay to make any conclusion at all.

I only found few articles mention this. Meanwhile EA mentions nothing about it on interviews nor in their website which is quite odd because that would be a selling point. But again remember the UFC 3 trailer bro? How they pulled of false advertisement with that press conference in the game. I take everything with a grain of salt until the game releases where i actually see gameplay thoroughly.

Now we just need a gameplay trailer to confirm everything... I haven't read a negative preview article yet however these were hands off previews ofc.. With 600 new submission animations and seamless transitions the ground game will be alot better for sure, the stand up will be much better also due to the fact of native 60fps alone..

Can add as many animations as you want, unless they completely revamp the grappling system, then the wrestling and grappling will always be dog****. I already know 100% they’re going to give us the same clunky, sequence based grappling system. They will never learn

This is one of the main problems with the modern gaming community. If people keep buying a product then complain about it, then why would the company have any incentive to make major improvements? They would keep with the same miniscule approach. Next time they would extend it with 4 years even.

Look: even though I'm blasting EAUFC4 I've had fun playing the career. So in the end, the purchase was worth it. Because EA is so dominant in certain sports, there's no alternative and they can get by on "slight increases" in quality. That's just how it works. Telling people to "vote with their wallet" just doesn't work as they'll just buy it anyway, even though they're claiming they don't.

Probably more entertaining than the game.

Gave it a watch and it seems depressing how the new career is going to be. If all you do is dodging questions and highlighting crap that literaly no one asked and present it like it's new. Maybe this clown just forgot a couple of key features and it might still be decent, but I don't have much hope.

It's not a suprise so I shouldn't be complaining, but I'm tired of being treated as a stupid idiot. Like there's somebody out there that doesn't notice that the "clinch" topic is just avoided entirely (in a very obvious manner). Just say it: "it's the same entirely". Like it would drastically change the tone of the interview, which was: "nope", "nope", "no, it's not 'in the game'". Reminds me that dodging questions in in fact a skill, which these people don't possess. They might be the ones with the skill to come up with these wacky animations and vanity items and hairstyles though...


Also: why do this? It only serves to deflate hype. No one is excited by this. Granted, I also get bummed by obvious fake excitement like the notorious E3-pressers, but even that is better than this...
