So my guess for UFC 3, if they are using head movement on the right stick, you might be kind of locking into a stance temporarily, by using head movement and the head will appear to have a tendency to duck in a certain way, so that your fighter will dodge strikes and duck in a particular direction?

I actually used For Honor as a reference on this board a number of times months ago, so that would make me smile if they went in a similar direction. That game has very simple yet very deep melee combat mechanics. UFC wouldn't have to completely copy off of it, but there's a number of things they could learn from their base gameplay that could be implemented in ways with a striking game.

If this turns out to be true, getting used to pressing simultaneous face buttons would be a valuable step in getting used to the new controls.

Like both punch buttons to clinch and both kick buttons to shoot?

In Fight Night you hit two buttons to throw uppercuts.

What if you got sausage fingers?

[SMOKEZERO]

Yes, but you hit the left jab and left hook to throw the left uppercut. What if you press the left and right punch buttons together in UFC to clinch? That did nothing in fight night.

Very interesting... Really curious about the control schemes now.

I'm reading some really bad, and awkward ideas here, and it's getting me extremely nervous.....
