MartialMind's honest thoughts after playing EA Sports UFC 3

[TheUFCVeteran]

Personally I'm so hyped after watching this. I watched with my friend Bananas and we got so so excited at some of the stuff he mentioned, I won't spoil it if you haven't watched it yet.

Definitely some high end stuff going on under the hood. 😁

That's a great video. I'm so happy he is a Gamechanger because I feel he perfectly voices what nearly every fan of MMA gaming should be feeling like about these games. And he is not afraid to say it either.

Especially the last segment about the pacing of fights is something that has bothered me throughout many of these games. Glad to hear he makes that known to EA.

Good stuff. Sounds pretty exciting, as far as the game itself goes. Wonder if this is where they finally added the EA MMA striking logic to their game.

Agreed, Yari. I'm a realist though and know they will always have to market to the consumer.

Great insight into what you are thinking throughout this process, MM. It's also good to hear you GCs have some differing opinions. That's where the best ideas come. Even if it takes a while to see it. Don't get discouraged by it. I think most of us agree with your perspective.

GPD amazed me last game. Can't wait to get to see some of the new game.

Yeah we (GC) don't always agree on everything. We just present our best arguments to the devs, and they act as the final judge before they slam the gavel down. I think it's safe to say we all want a realistic and authentic MMA experience that is fair, balanced, and fun -- but we sometimes disagree as to what constitutes those things. That said, I agree with Martial about 95% of the time. He is usually dead on.

I must say Kenetic was a great addition to the team. We have similar views about how the core mechanics should function and about what makes for a good competitive experience.

Imagine a world where GameplayDev could do whatever he wanted, wherever he wanted.

That's UFC3.

Maybe that's slight hyperbole, but it's true enough.

That sounds amazing. Sign me up.

Few things.

I like lots of strikes, I don't think think completely sim mma game would work. It would end up with doing a lot nothing. (An example would be round 2 of Lawler vs Cerrone or any of Woodley's recent fights)

Wanted to note I'm not the David brought up at beginning of video, lol

Sleeper cars are the best

Are game changers not allowed to bring electronics with storage inside ea building? (Cell, tablets, ect?) I was curious about that since martial didn't have examples to show what was wrong with animations.
