I am hoping this is because of the difficulty setting, but this is an issue with FNC, and I am wondering if they rolled it over. The CPU is way too aggressive and only backs down to regenerate stamina. You can stop the CPU by evading and landing body shots but I get the feeling all that will change in difficulty settings is the ability to block and land.

I'm not very impressed with the demo. The presentation is dull and almost lifeless at points. Commentary is vague and quickly repetitive. These are things Ignite claimed would be different. We were told the game was made for next gen but everything so far is simply looking better, not really playing better.

For me the demo says it will be fun to play online etc., but not much going on outside if that.

I understand your side but thats not really whats happening. With movement, I'm seeing less than 5 "highlight" moves. There also is downtime once the CPU stamina drops and if you are using movement. Its not as much as I want but there is some.

Yea I'm basing my view off the videos and have not got my hands on it yet. I just put it downloading from work on the PS4 so when I get home I'll be able to get some time in with it tonight.

I'm excited to give it a shot finally but must admit way more leery now than I have ever been with this title.

That's my exact worry Dave! I'm sure I could enjoy the online portion but I finally want a good career and offline mode without the CPU AI being one dimensional.

You should be leery. The CPU's aggression is something that has to be fixed in the final version. I'm just saying its not as bad as the video shows. If you mix in clinches, takedowns and movement, the pace slows. Not good enough for me but not as bad as the videos show.

The CPU AI in EA MMA didn't attack this hyper aggressive. Now I hope like Dave said, it is more a difficulty thing, but what makes me worry about that is EA is known for making AI cheap as you increase the difficulty. Another words they will stuff every take down, parry all strikes, land counters at will, and submit or get out of submissions with ease. I'm hoping I'm wrong but that is the EA M.O.

Has EA said if this game will have sliders? The aggressive AI is a bit worrisome.
