Are People Losing Interest Already?

For me, I'm taking a break to wait for the tuning patch.
I do agree that a lot of the fights play out the similarly. I think addressing the below issues should reduce this feeling

- I don't like how everyone has power takedowns when it should really be for top wrestlers. The move list view shows the correct thing but the settings on the fighter are not consistent.
- The L3 standup needs to be restricted to BJJ aces or at least should have a bigger block window for weaker ground guys. I know they were trying to make things easier for people who don't like the ground game. Right now anyone can standup from dominant positions and it really makes a patient progression of transitions a waste of time.
- Ditto for the sweep from full guard bottom to mount top.
- Really push back on UFC brass so that they don't suggest dumb things like giving Jon Jones ridiculous KO power.
- Finally I want to see long term stamina fixed. The fact that you can spam the technique and power strikes endlessly over three rounds is unacceptable.
- Weak block should be weakened some more.

If Gran Turismo can go from a shell of a game when it first came out to fully fleshed out 2 years later, then surely we can get an event mode.

Exactly. And you should have low stamina if you shoot 2-3 takedowns in a row and get stuffed. Guys would stop that crap real quick if they know a sub is coming. Or some shots on the ground.

If stamina isnt addressed you cant nurf weak block. Spammers will ejaculate in their basements. ...

Quitter shaming is something that would be interesting to add to a patch. Like have on a ticker at the bottom pop up and say xximasoreloserxx just disconnected during a match. Knowing you would be shamed like that would entice people to finish out fights especially when caught in a submission.

I agree. But least of my worries. The blind match making where you get a lw vs a ww is bizarre. At least in FNC you could see who he grabbed and adjust accordingly. Guys will always take high rated fighters in ranked anyway.

Me being at the beach for a week is probably why I'm not playing.

Although, before I left online was not working for me. Many are having this issue with other EA games at this time.

As a casual UFC follower; I play majority of the game against the CPU/A.I. For this game to NOT get anymore stale the cpu/A.I. strategies must be patched ASAP.

Plus what some of our better spoken community members have noticed.

If at some point along the way a problem is found that forces something to be removed, and I've promised some feature to people in a public forum, it makes the company look bad and it's very bad for me. Bottom line is, although I know what work we did and what's being tested, there's still a chance (although very unlikely) that something could be found and the feature could be pulled. Since I don't have the power to control that, I can't be the one making the announcement. Once the patch is through testing, the company will announce in the way they best see fit, and I'll be able to give more details, answer questions, etc. I'd love to talk about it now because I'm excited about it, but we have to wait.

To be excited about something is usually a good thing...

To be honest, I was about to trade this game in and get $60 at walmart since they are offering additional 50% on top of what the games trade in value was... But GameplayDevUFC, I will hang on to it hoping you guys deliver.

Thanks again for checking up on us 5-6 people that are always on here.
