Re: Official EA UFC 2 "Teach me how/strategy" thread

I have played zhunter who used a move I have not seen before or seen advertised. When I was in his guard he went from left to right and swept me on to half guard top. by swaying left to right. Iassume this is a montentium scissor sweep and how do I perform this thanks in advance.

2. ps Why does it say guard when I am in guard oto when i push the stick towards guard nothing happens my character looks like he is trying to sweep but fails the move looks like a scissor sweep

The full guard option is a momentum shift, you use that to change the momentum of the top guy to make it easier to perform sweeps. So
You would use the momentum swing then a sweep and your sweep transition will happen faster

Couple of things if anyone can help:
1) online I seem to be the victim of hit stun abusers, what combinations cause the hit stun. I've seen a lot online using 2-1 body kick. Any others?
2) the transition to rubber guard seems to happen incredibly fast, how do you deny it?
3) any counter to the sliding side kick to the body spam?

Thanks this has enlightened me but I tried to do this myself but I only had two options for left and right when the opponent was in my guard. left was guard and right get up. So I was unable to perform this move as no option was to sweep apart from holding down on the right stick which is a different sweep. zhunter did this move every time I took him down by swinging left and then right to scissor sweep me in his guard how is this possible it has frustated me all day lol.

If u hold in LB/L1 u get some more options involving backside and sweeping into a position depending on how low there stamina is, there are multipe positions where u can use this button to get more options for instance if your pressed againt the cage in clinch there can be an option to reverse them and put them against the cage in the clinch by holding in LB/L1 and a direction. When u start to learn them it opens up allot of options

I am having a really hard time keeping someone pinned when postured up in full guard, half, and mount. They scoot out or push off. I have only blocked it a couple of times (I think I used RT and down), but even then I haven't been able to strike after they denied.

1. What is the deny move when they try to escape by scooting out or pushing off?

2. Why am I not able to strike their face following the deny (they just transition right away, again)?

In half guard it is the opposite direction they go to (they seem to push off right, you go left.

In full guard and mount it is down

Thanks for answering the first part.

What about the second? Is that just a glitch in the game (spamming transitions when one has zero stamina against someone with full stamina)?

Depends on the position. Some transitions are such that you can spam them over and over (back side to back side sweep for example), dunno which ones though

Back side sweep spam with no stamina is a dam joke and I hope GPD looks at this big time or reads this thread.

I see ppl in UT doing the spam over and over and with lag it's a no win and there's nothing you can do.

What does clinch power even do? Is it mean how powerful your strikes are?

Re: Official EA UFC 2 "Teach me how/strategy" thread

Hi everybody! Could someone please tell me how to find the character skills description to study the perfect balance? I need to read/know what strength, stamina, movement are needed to and i can't find any manual or tutorial that tells me. Maybe it is in gmae but i'm stuck xD maybe it's too much weed :P haauahuaha

Can I start the arm trap denial input before the hud prompt shows up? I understand grapple advantage a bit but sometimes I only get hud 1/3 filled before I'm reversed. Not trying to complain, just trying to learn.

Re: Official EA UFC 2 "Teach me how/strategy" thread

Is there a denial for someone posturing up, or is posturing up a freebee? I try RT and up on RS, but that doesn't seem to work.

General question on gameplay: do people like the complexity of denying moves? It some positions the deny seems common sense; in others it's more subtle. In the old versions there was only one deny move, and that was programmed (I think) to timing, stamina, and grappling ratings. I would prefer that way. What do others think?
