1100 punches through 10 rounds = 3/4 stamina remaining

[StonesRunIt]

I have come to the conclusion that there is no stamina in this game. I say this because as long as you are connecting, you will always have points to replenish what you may have "lost". I played a Foreman smothering straight spammer/ body banger with Ali, not only was it difficult for me to keep distance, but he barely got tired.

It made no sense it was as if my guy would get tired from watching him swing. I tried many tactics non of which worked, they just kept me from getting knocked out. Pushing and blocking failed, lets just get that out the way, my blocking went down before his stamina which was AMAZING. But heres the other things i tried.

- Since he was coming in with his guard high, id go to the body to beat him to the punch. FAILED, after eating two body blows he'd unleash his attack which was way more powerful.

- I would stay on my bike, dancing trying to create oppurtunities off his impatience. FAILED, he would get within arms reach and i would seemingly get vacuumed into him and his barrage.

- I tried to counter his punches and make him pay ( mind you i play on Champ and I counter at a good clip). FAILED, i countered some of his straights so he went back to the body where i was only able to counter 1/4 for some reason. WTF.

- Its easier to grab a person while they are blocking, so as he marched in, guard up, id grab him to frustrate and encourage an outside fight. FAILED, he began to 'straight' his way in, and when id try to counter, he'd go to the body and repeat his cycle.

I combined all my tactics to avoid giving the fairy the satisfaction of knocking me out, but i could not mount my own attack with any consistancy.

THE STAMINA IS BROKEN, IT NEEDS TO DEPELETE MUCH MORE OVERALL DURING THE ROUNDS TO MINIMALIZE THE BETWEEN ROUND EFFECTS.

After a weekend of fighting online, I am changing my opinion about the stamina issue. I originally stated that you just have to block and wait for the later rounds. After getting killed using this strategy all weekend, I agree that the stamina needs to be tweaked so that it is more of a factor for people who just mash.

what we need to do is give the developers of the game a punching bag and have them throw the inordinate amount of punches in the game in real life. while throwing medicine balls at them..

but really tho. punch spamming is a game killer. they need to make defense easier, fatigue more stringent, and ring movement better

I don't agree about the game killer part, cause I really dig the game, but it certainly makes the ONLINE portion all but unplayable. I totally agree with your other statements.

You're absolutely wrong. I just fought an opponent who threw 1,065 punches and his yellow bar was at a millimeter the last two rounds-and this is typical in the online games I've been playing . Unfortunately I assigned too many points to Damage (once accidentally) and my stamina was depleted as well. I won the decision easy but would have blasted him out of the water had I been a little more punch conservative and have eaten less right hands to the face. Does stamina need a tweak? YES! Is it not in the game? Have you been reading these posts?

It is a game killer for me because I ONLY play games online.

Yeah, if you only play online, I could see where you'd have complaints about this game...

I have not had an issue with stamina online. I just fought a sugar ray leonard and i made his stamina bar deplete to almost nothing by round 8. I worked the body and made him miss. thats all it takes to deplete stamina. Not to mention he tried throwing tons of straights and jabs at me every chance he could. lol
I feel the game has an adrenaline type system where if you keep connecting your stamina doesn't really deplete. You have to make your opponent miss.

Excellent point. I'm still learning but I hate it when my adrenaline takes over and all of a sudden I see 3 of my punches take off when my opponent is nowhere near. Discipline.

Re: 1100 punches through 10 rounds = 3/4 stamina remaining

I fought a fight last night where the guy threw 749 to my 489 and his stamina bar was pretty taxed. I ended up Ko'ing him in the ninth after all his punches were so slow that I knew they were coming easily and countered him with hard shots that floored him.

Stamina can be tweaked I agree but I've been doing well with what is out there so far.

What is the connect percentage of the opponents for the players who believe the stamina is broken? I am really curious.

Re: 1100 punches through 10 rounds = 3/4 stamina remaining

Problem is, people connect at a high %...The game says it drains on missed punches....
