    Do you use the Stick or Buttons to punch with

    I feel that the stick is more realistic then the buttons. I get my butt handed to me but it just seems like the way it should be played. What do you think?

          I use config 3, so I use a combination of both. I use the stick for uppercuts, haymakers, etc., and the face buttons for hooks and jabs.

            It really doesnt matter cuz to throw the Stun, KO and Haymaker you must learn how to use the stick.

            Ok....do you guys use the stick or buttons when in training mode (weightlifting excluded)?

                I used to mash the buttons but I tried the sticks for FN3 and have found the game to be more realistic using them. You simply cannot outgun your opponent like you can with the buttons. You HAVE to incorporate some defense and torso movement to get your big shots off.

                I find this game more enjoyable with the sticks!

                  Stick, although it is definitely easier on your hands to use the buttons. Stick just feels more immersive.

                    Ditto.

                    I personally see no reason to go completely "stick." I like the combo.

                      i think you should HAVE to use the stick. i think face buttons is cheese. you an throw punches so much quicker with the face buttons. i just feel like stick should be the way they make you play the game.

                          I like useing the buttons, no matter how much I practice I can't use the stick by itself. I use the stick for haymakers and Flash Ko's. Configure 3
