Re: Fight Night Round 4 Impressions

When setting the rankings, if I put floyd(or any CAB) as the #1 welterweight will the game generate a record for him or will he have a 0-0 record as a number one rank?

Thanks Hank, this game is sounding solid.

Re: Fight Night Round 4 Impressions

If I start a career with a Joe Frazier and I import Ali (who is older and started his career first) and Foreman (who's younger and started later) will all 3 be the same age?

Re: Fight Night Round 4 Impressions

Are punches not just slow but sloppy when the fatigue sets in, in the later rounds?

Is the 'inside fighting' vacuum still present?

Improved footwork? Can you 'dance' around the ring?

Punches seem to lose their tracking ability as stamina drops. They come out slightly more slowly, but the loss in accuracy and power are for moticable.

There doesn't seem to be a vacuum on the inside, but the CPU is so good at the Bob and weave, they will stay in your chest mercilessly.

You can't really "dance" much around the ring, though footwork seems better. turning the Boxer Speed Slider all the way up made a huge difference. I was able to keep away from aggressive fighters more easily.

Re: Fight Night Round 4 Impressions

I just found an easy way to get max points in the double end bag training game. You get the most points for throwing uppercuts (100 for jabs, 200 for crosses, 400 for hooks, 500 for uppers), but the game doesn't care if they're to the body or not. So, simply only throw body uppercuts. Thanks to the new TPC you can throw them fast than a regualr upper, and you get the same amount of points. You can throw two quick ones before you have to move. That's a thousand easy points in each zone. It should be fairly easy to keep the bonus and get max points.

Re: Fight Night Round 4 Impressions

Hey guys thanks for the impressions. A couple quick questions.

Has the counter window changed at all (harder to open, less frequent, less amount of time?)

Can we edit the licensed boxers gear?

How extensive is the name database? Is there Hopkins, De la Hoya, Mayweather as last names? Or at least Floyd, Oscar, Bernard?

The name db has quite a few last names. The announcers never say the first name. THey'll say "big win by "Big Train" Jackson!". Stuff like that.

I just won my 4th fight via 2rd KO. I've now been nominated for an award.

Tyson won his last fight via 4thrd KO to retain his belt. Poor Eddie Chambers and Toney are not making out so well. They're both .500 fighters at this point.

The window for stuns seems to be the same. Not sure if it'll change as your attributes increase.

Had an exhibtion as Lamatta vs Robinson. Robinson tries to keep you away but mostly counterpunches you to death.

Re: Fight Night Round 4 Impressions

What difficulty are you playing on? Do you know what kind of stats are kept at the user profile/exhibition level?

Re: Fight Night Round 4 Impressions

"Money" Mayweather FTW!

speaking of customizing, can we edit boxer's ratngs?

Also while in legacy mode, can we still customize boxer's ring appearal? Saw a guy with red and white trunks while rocking sky blue shoes lol where is the "swag"?

Money, keep us posted on your legacy bro...you are making the wait a lil easier

Re: Fight Night Round 4 Impressions

For those worried about too many KDs against the CPU, I just had a legacy fight where I knocked the guy down once in the 10th and the ref just stopped the fight. It was the only KD in the fight.

Nice-how was the fatigue in that fight? Connect percentages?
