Re: You're gonna patch the playerbase away
This just seems like undermining good changes to protect their preferred playstyle.
I play both aggressively and defensively, I dont know why one would defend one over the other at this stage. It just demonstrates bias. People want to circle better, people want to cut the cage better. Both can be done by improving the footwork.

Re: You're gonna patch the playerbase away
You should definitely care if more people play this game if you ever want to play another. I don't know how you can even make that argument when you yourself once had to play this game for the first time. Last edited by YourFatZebra; 05-09-2018 at 12:36 PM. |

Re: You're gonna patch the playerbase away
The most damaging thing possible to this game is people picking up a game called UFC 3, and then it looks anf plays very little like an MMA fight. Why even make an MMA game if you don’t respect the sport to understand what makes it appealing in the first place.

Re: You're gonna patch the playerbase away
my point was more skill based but this is answered with the balanced game or realistic game dilema, if its go for realstic/hardcore audience then i dont mind it going more difficult to learn but if it go's for the balanced gameplay method then it needs to lower the difficulty for the base game so it's aimed more at a casual audience.
But i derailed the convo abit with this direction, zebra was never arguing for the skill being lowered that was more my argument. But we both want the game to get more regular players as during the afternoons in the uk on xbox u have around 1200 players and around 3000 in the evenings.

Re: You're gonna patch the playerbase away
See for me it's like 4am but for him it's average day hours. That's not fair for him or anyone else in that area of the world. Imagine being in like, Sweden or some **** I don't know geography I'm not Randy Marsh (he was a geologist I just remembered so I might be wrong lol). But somewhere where you get off work and there's 700 people on UFC.
To be frank, no. That's why pretty much everyone is posting "walls of text" if you haven't noticed. Multiple times I have said this to be a strange, nuanced point that requires explanation. We got derailed into a totally different thing, I recognized it and tried to pull it back. So I mean, I don't know what else to say about that. What you're seeing as me contradicting myself should be seen as evidence for how confusing the game can be even for someone who spends alot of time with it. Imagine if I was someone who knew nothing.

Re: You're gonna patch the playerbase away
My style depends on who I'm using. I try (and often fail) to fight outside if I'm Wonderboy. I fight inside with body shots if I'm Lineker. I use alot of leg kicks if I'm Justin G. or Barbosa. I just want to be able to easily replicate the style of the fighter im using. Its a problem and its a bigger problem that many of you guys see. The elite high level players are going to drive the gameplay meta. They have a valid argument for why they should. They know the mechanics of the game better than and average player like me. They understand the exploits and can communicate ways to resolve them better than an average player. That makes sense. But there is a problem with that. Elite players maybe play with 30-40 fighters plus. They are primarily concerned with those matchups. They are elite players using elite fighters. They are concerned with winning using those fighters and in a way that is satisfying to them. A way that is fun to them even if its not exactly realistic. How is that problematic? Well, when I helped with the stats, I paid special attention to the footwork stat for the fighters. Take someone like Tim Elliott. The team gave him good footwork because he has good footwork. He isnt someone that you can just brawl with. He's someone who uses his footwork to get in and out (more out) and land strikes or set up takedowns. He doesnt have power to keep people off of him....he uses his footwork for that in real life. He's useless in the game because the footwork stat has been rendered useless because its difficult to circle off against a hyper aggressive opponent AND Elliot doesnt have the power to make an aggressive opponent respect him and get him off of him. I've never seen anyone use Tim Elliott in a high level fight. Maybe they have but I feel safe in saying that no one elite gives a **** about him (many of them have barely seen him fight). When they are talking about movement they are only talking about how it affects the top 25% of fighters in the game. One thing i get told is that I only play offline and because I dont play online at the higher levels, I dont understand the issues at times. I've also been told that these decisions dont affect offline. In some cases, thats correct but not with movement. I'll use Elliot as an example. If I matchup Elliott against a hyper aggressive AI like Lineker on Pro difficulty (which throws longer combos), I run into the same issues people online do with someone who just presses forward. I'm handicapped by the same lack of movement people complain about online when it comes to aggressive opponents. I just want fighters to fight like themselves. I'm not saying I should win regularly with a guy like Elliott. I just want to be able to emulate his style and you really cant currently.
