    Most Annoying Aspects of OWC

    1. CABs with 80 inch reach
    2. Runners
    3. The guys who disconnect when you just scored a one punch, first round knockout.

    Any others?

    The reach thing is what gets me most, especially when they're speed guys. I've debated more than once just making my reach that long but I think I'm too used to my fighter now to make that change.

    I've ran into a couple of these guys recently and with the combination of body spam, it's hard to stop. It's hard to touch em on the head with my 73" reach in that situation. The punches do zero damage but it's nearly impossible for me to outpunch them. If my guy was stronger I guess I couldn't have as much of a problem stunning them.

    But I feel like runners get their due in this game. Their toughness ratings usually aren't very high so if you can set them up for that one shot, you can catch em.

    But the body spammers recently have been giving me trouble. Hopefully I can find a sound strategy without having to alter my boxer

      Reach should be tied to height. Its asinine I can have a 5'6" guy with 83" reach. Looking like a caveman with his arms dragging the ground.

        I'm pretty sure there is a limit tied to height. My player is modeled after me. I'm 5'8" and I have a 6 ft wing span. So I set my guy to 72", but the max for my 5'8" boxer was 73". I haven't played online though mainly because of the max height/reach guys, and the maxed punch spammers. It is ridulous to have so many boxers with 80 inch reaches. That is a 6'8" wingspan and many people put this on 6'0" 145 fighters.

          4. Guys who when stuned low blow/headbutt to avoid the KD. They lose a point but spare themselves the difficulty of getting off the canvas the 2nd and 3rd times down. Thus extending the fight and giving them a "punchers chance".

            I can't avoid getting stunned nearly every first round by juiced fighters. It's getting old. I can hold my opponents to below 35% and still can't win rounds. It seems like its all about how many punches you can throw with your one or two juiced punches.

            They have got to start working the stamina down significantly for the guys who just set out to out punch you with no regard to defense.

                I had this awesome fight last night. Some stats.

                My Opponent:

                Left Hook: 98 / 688

                Right Hook: 2 / 6

                Less than 10 punches on every other stat category. Less than a 20% connect percentage total.

                Meanwhile I landed 68% of my punches on a total of 214 less punches thrown.

                I was knocked out in the 6th on a Flash KO.

                You know I felt like I was doing what I was supposed to do. Move around play good defense and attempt to avoid his obvious left hook spam session.

                They really need to cap your ability to juice a punch until you've moved other aspects of your fighter up. This would ensure more accurate matchups with ability. I guy could be rated 79 with a maxed left hook. Whats the point of allowing this.
