Is Ultimate Team set to it's own difficulty or can you change it?

Re: EA Sports UFC 2 Community Impressions

Just had a great standup fight against some guy while using Pennington. The fight before that, I had lost 48-47 on all cards to a Jon Jones who basically tried to play keep away with kicks to the body for most of the fight, so it was a nice bounce back. This guy in particular started preaching to me about being a vegan when the fight began. I turned off the headset, knocked him out and ate a piece of chicken. Good night, America.

I panick when I get put in the MT clinch. I lose all sense of skill and patience.

Re: EA Sports UFC 2 Community Impressions

4 points (One win) away from division 4. I was pretty drunk Saturday night after we boiled some crawdads and must of went on a 10 fight losing streak. Yesterday I attempted to correct my screw up from the night before but sober this time......I went on a 6 to 8 fight win streak.....3 while holding the belt.

So tonight I should be making the move to division 4

Re: EA Sports UFC 2 Community Impressions

Ultimate team is broken if you dont want to buy points you have trouble.Why is not overall matchmaking? Im 68 ovr and fight with guys who are 76++ overall and they just spam clinch or super strikes.I dont have any clinch transition and ground passes so what can i do.

Re: EA Sports UFC 2 Community Impressions

Let me start by saying that I am enjoying the game. I would absolutely recommend it to any MMA fan, or fighting game fan. I don't want my long winded complaints about certain aspects to take away from that.

Now for what bothers me. Spinning kicks. They are TOO effective. They don't drain enough stamina. They don't have a big enough window to interrupt the strike. If it gets countered with a body roundhouse, the spinner should be interrupted and really have a high chance at a liver shot. Another issue is the forward dash does not make up enough ground. Again with people who abuse the spin kicks and flying knees, they are generally bad players with a piss poor understanding of range. Usually they whiff. But are still out of range to actually counter. And by the time you step forward to counter and make them pay, another crazy spin kick is on the way, giving them immunity to almost anything but a takedown. Now I don't mind the ground game, but If I am fighting with Cro Cop someone who is primarily a striker, I should have striking answers to this. And right now I don't feel like the appropriate answers are there.

I agree i want to KO them not ground them and i shoud be enable to do this because they dont know how to fight and dont understand the range etc..

Glad to see that my beef with the spinning kick players is shared by people on this forum. **** gets dumb fast.

Good stuff, that mode is super addicting. I'm something like 32-10 right now. Donald Cerrone is my kryptonite because 3 of those losses are to him. I feel I should've gotten two of those decisions I lost, but I can't leave these things to the judges. The body kick guys seem to be very prevalent in division 3. I don't have a problem with them, but I still had a hard *** time trying to reach Jon Jones last night even after parrying a lot of his shots. Out of my 10 losses, I'd say maybe 3 or 4 of them got my respect for how they won haha.

Re: EA Sports UFC 2 Community Impressions

Any one see a leg kick TKO yet ? Out of dozens of fights now with the strongest leg kick fighters I have yet to see a leg kick TKO. Hell I have yet to see a lot of leg kicks even slow an opponent down. EA needs to fix this. If I land over dozen HARD solid shots on your leg, you shouldn't be able to move around at the same speed. Nor should be able to be effective with just not regular take downs, but power take downs.

As it stands now, leg kicks are just purely cosmetic.

I also feel like kicks and knees to the body don't do enough damage either. It is like the CPU just walks right through knees to the body and kicks to the body just like they just walk through leg kicks. The only thing that causes real damage in this game are head shots.

Maybe EA need to lower everybody body health and leg health by 10 or 15 points or something. It is totally killing my immersion when I know I have to head hunt because leg kicks and attacks to the body don't do damage to the CPU at all. The CPU don't respect those shots what so ever. Majority of the time they will return a power strike instantly after getting hit with a power strike to the body or leg.

Re: EA Sports UFC 2 Community Impressions

Re: EA Sports UFC 2 Community Impressions

I've never understood why parries are such a huge part of this game. Sure they're used in MMA, but nowhere near the extent that they're used in this game. You can go a whole card and count the number of times they're actually used on two hands. In this game it's the computer's main line of defense and they'll hit double digits within a round easily.

Re: EA Sports UFC 2 Community Impressions

Everyone is out here point fighting me today. Another split decision loss. I like when I'm champion, so I have more rounds to take them out. 39-12. Division 4 has been interesting so far.

My biggest problem is that you can dominant the hole fight yet lose the decision happening all the time in Ultimate team mode ,if you don't get a knockout you lose the decision
