Patch Spoilers

[TheRizzzle]

Looks like we've got a patch coming soon.

DLC Prediction: Gane & Font

This had me intrigued..."Some fighter likeness updates. Normally there'd be more of these but....those resources had to go elsewhere for this patch.... and a few of the previous ones too

A long-asked for change ought to be coming soon to a TV near you, along with a pretty big content update."

I'll shoot (too) high. Venum fight kits and ability to switch out shorts/champ shorts?

Re: Patch Spoilers

We’re for sure getting shorts selection. I’m pumped for Francis’ stat update

It's wonderful that we're getting back the ability to change these athletes uniforms...something that worked perfectly fine in the previous editions of EA UFC and is a staple of every sports game that's been around for as long as I can remember sports gaming. What a treat.

But shorts colors pale in comparison to doing something about the most significant issue in the game: THE NON-EXISTENCE OF CLINCH FIGHTING. I

For me, all of these things fall under one category: Immersion.

That's what I want from my video game experience but that's just me.

I have some PMO experience so I imagine that the decision to update the fighter selection screen disrupted the ability to change shorts color.

Compound that with knowing that Venum would be coming out soon AND them actually deciding they'd like to update the kits when that happened...it kind of makes sense they prioritized other things.

So really we should think of it as adding the Venum fight kits and gaining a better user experience selecting fighters. These are thing people have asked for. It came at the cost of 8 months not being able to select outdated Reebok shorts.

Now that we know, I'm sort of good with it, even if the timing of it all really had terrible optics.

Re: Patch Spoilers

immersion is definitely something thats important to me too. i think its important to anyone who wouldnt be considered a "casual." that immersion falls a little flat before any actual playing takes place because of the shorts thing and cafs having to walk shirtless to the cage and the completely out of place "are you ready" taunts...but i feel like i can still have a pretty good gaming experience with those issues. Not being able to have the kind of interactive clinch we had before is just on a whole different level of immersion killer. it directly effects the main thing we buy the game for, the actual fight. im not trying to downplay the other things out there that other people find more important than clinch....im just saying its the biggest for me. it sucks too cause i really wanna like this game.

Re: Patch Spoilers

Patch is live. Looks like we can select the colors (can't read notes yet). Yay!

New fighters are Gane and Font. Excellent choices.

You called it.

The EA UFC team has done an OUTSTANDING job on the DLC. Well done!

Re: Patch Spoilers

Man I hope they updated Ngannou's model. They just couldn't seem to get in right in UFC 3 and it's a bit outdated now. Hopefully with him being champ now, there will be a bit more priority for him when it comes to the fighter likeness side of these updates.

Re: Patch Spoilers

I hate to be the picker of nits and sound ungrateful...

But why with all the effort that went into this can't all the fighters have the champ shorts assigned to them along with their national kits?

Genuinely asking, what's big about this update? The shorts? The kit selection? Stuff that should've been in the game since Day 1? If anything it's probably the smallest patch we've had..

It's literally a big content update. In terms of size. Actual manpower needed to pull it off and hours.

Some won't care. I do. I appreciate having the option back.

Re: Patch Spoilers

Thanks for gane and font. Good additions.

The shorts selection is nice but shouldve been in from the start, good on getting venum before its officially used first tho.

Apparently the patches will be getting smaller towars the end. According to the devs this is to avoid game breaking imbalances, emergency patches, etc.

Re: Patch Spoilers

But for the CAF nothing at all, just stupid cosmetics, this UFC 4 is the worst game with respect to the CAF of creation, we cannot change pants before the fight, if we put the new Venum kits without being able to choose other colors that are not be it black or white.

I still cannot edit the statistics and movements of my creation CAFs, they force me to choose between some already predefined archetypes without options to vary anything, which becomes very repetitive and boring.

To top it all we continue as in previous games with only 22 spaces to save my creation CAFs.

Honestly on this issue of creation of my creation fighters that I care so much, I am very unhappy with this game, and I do not see that they have any intention of fixing anything with future patches.

Re: Patch Spoilers

This 100%. What a total crock that we lost the ability to fully edit. That really hurt the army of "universe" players out there.
