Watching UFC 218 as we speak. Nobody is throwing combos

what kind of Alpha test didn't notice this?? It feels like the beta was the first actual playtest of the game

well its only online fights for whatever reason of the bug, testing usually isn't done in online match ups rather then per dev kit in the office id imagine. It has been addressed according to him

When a group of us tested UD3, nothing was tested in a online match up environment, they also did a online beta.

Round 3:

BRAWL IN THE CROWD, TONS OF COMBINATIONS THROWN

Pettis - three 2-strike combinations . very tentative

Cejudo - one combination thrown

Another fight that was 90% single strikes / grappling

The Undisputed 3 testers were the worst, online was barely functional

lol again, we didn't get to test online, it was on fight now on the same console.

Leg kicks are great in the game in that the better timed they are... the more damage they do.

With that said... Diaz should not be able to get a leg kick rock on you after landing a few (and that happened to me the other day). Also... if your leg health is low... you can check the kick but it will still cause a health event. Pretty sure that's a mistake though.

They definitely need tuning a bit but they shouldn't end up how they are in UFC 2. I just don't want every fighter having the ability to **** your leg up with just a few kicks.

That's insane. Online play is the most important thing to test and they didnt. its up to developers to catch basic functionality. they should have had their own testing network set up. that falls on THQ/Yukes (and I suspect Yukes did some of that on purpose as THQ was up to all kinds of shananigans in the States)

Round 1

Overeem - zero combinations

Ngannou - zero combinations. you could argue the final strike was part of a 2-strike combo
