Idea for UFC 3 'Weight = Height + Body Type'

[RTSImperator]

As it stands with the current system for weightclasses; there's alot of freedom with being able to apply a variety of different body types with no impact on weight.

You could make a 6'3 MW, give them the skinniest possible body type vs the fattest possible body type with no change in weight. This offers alot of freedom from a purely aesthetic point of view but it's just pure fantasy in a physical sense.

Custom fighters aren't to scale and you could have a 6'1 fighter built like Mark Hunt and still make 155 lbs.

Implenting a system where a fighters weight is directly influenced by their height + body type would add a whole new level of realism and perhaps would add a tactical aspect to creating a fighter also.

I don't like it that weight is just a meaningless number in this game, so that might be a good idea

Are you thinking NBA 2K style where height weight wingspan affects stats?

Yes.

I've actually brought that game up before, and shown pictures of how there system works.


Something like that translated into an MMA game would be great. EVERY SINGLE caf wouldn't be a 6'6 monster if that were the case.

If that was not the case you mean? Currently, almost everyone in UT has max height to get that extra reach. No impact to attributes.

Apologies to borrow from 2K, but if your CAF has lighter weight, it affects strength stats, for example.

Would be interesting if EA thinks about it.

NO. If that was the case, If we had a system like that, we wouldn't have nothing but maxed height and reach fighters.

We are agreeing. You misread, or misunderstood my post.

I'm still mad I can't give my caf of me accurate reach ;(

Re: Idea for UFC 3 'Weight = Height + Body Type'

I just want to be able to have a lot of freedom when it comes to making CAFs

This alongside having reach matter that much more as SUGATA suggested (shorter reach = more pump in punches) would be an incredible improvement.

They kinda did it like that in FNC.

Long reach and height = strong jab and straight, weak hooks and uppers, weak body health

Shorter height = strong hooks and uppers, weaker jabs and straights, weaker head health (not sure about the last one)
