I don't know if better AI is needed... if anything the AI is too good at times! I lost to Joe Freaking Rogan while using Ben Henderson! WTF?! I play on normal difficulty!

Better AI is definitely needed. Once you get half way decent with the game, the game is very easy to beat because the AI is brain dead in certain areas and becomes way too predictable.

I like the change list so far. Very eager to see those AI changes though. Can't wait to start a new career playthrough.

Geoff Harrower, A.K.A. GameplayDevUFC, has been posting quite a few details on the upcoming EA Sports UFC 2 patch on his Twitter page over the past few days. While no date for the patch has been revealed, he has posted quite a few nuggets. Check out some of them below and let us know what you think!

• Reduced damage on consecutive uppercut combos
  
• When two opposing strikes land in quick succession, the 1st will take power off the 2nd
  
• New strike intercept framework. #stoppingpower #longlivethejab #shutdownspinning**** #timingiseverything
  
• Swaying away from the opponent will put the fighter at risk for higher body damage
• If a parry is mistimed, block will no longer be activated automatically
• And to maintain balance, submissions from bottom guard have been made a little harder to pull off as well
• Made passing guard from postured down position more difficult
• Increased grapple advantage given to bottom fighter while top fighter strikes in side control
• The bottom fighter’s transition to side control from back side will no longer be interrupted by strikes
• Bottom fighter is now given grapple advantage after escaping finish the fight into back side control
• In sprawl, the bottom fighter will now slowly accumulate grapple advantage
  
• Elbows and punches in muay thai clinch will no longer interrupt transition attempts
• Fixed a bug where early or pre-emptive standing TD denials didn't punish stamina on the fighter who was denied
  
• Getting your clinch attempt denied will now incur a much larger stamina penalty
• Clinch attempts will be reduced in speed, making them easier to deny
• Diaz Brothers now have the Stockton Slap.
• Plus AI improvements.

I'm especially pleased about these. Bring it on!

It was a no brainer change because there is no way for you to gain grapple advantage from sprawl because you cant strike from that position. The really good grapplers could hold you there all day. Also its unrealistic. Fighters dont hold people in sprawl easily in real life.

Regarding DLC, I want them to continue to add fighters. There are still top fighters and top 15 fighters missing from the game.

Just curious aholbert who are the fighters you really want them to add. I want them to add more as well, just want to know your top wanted adds?

Cyborg, Cote, Tumenov, Larkin, Schvecenko

I'm really not interested in any classic fighters because the ones I want, the UFC wont put in their game.

I don't think 85% of the people playing this game will be able to function without spinning **** or clinch nonsense. This patch will be interesting if it does it's job correctly.

I'm running a card tonight so i'll have feedback around 8pm EST.

Hopefully the AI is much improved. I've only run 2 cards because it felt to easy.

Ai still gas their stamina on Pro, but less parries. On the ground they go for the same transition repeatedly even after getting denied (Miesha Tate SC to Side Saddle). They at least stay in mount and are better there at ground and pound.

Re: EA Sports UFC 2 Patch Coming Soon, Here Are Some Details

One fight so far on Hard Cote vs Lawler. The meter for transitions, takedowns, etc. fills up much faster. A lot easier to defend take downs. CPU don't automatically INSTANTLY deny transitions anymore. Ground game seem to be slower and more realistic. You are now able to go to half guard and pound the body a tad bit before being put back into full guard.

Before when you passed to half guard, the CPU instantly put you back in full guard before you even got a chance to throw a punch. Got TKO'ed in the 2nd round.

I wish they add Okami to the roster.

FYI, Okami is a WSOF fighter so I doubt they will add him.
