Re: New Patch Spoilers

LOL. They have a QA team already plus I dont know how they would even do that. Its not like they can shoot a patch to specific consoles.

I wonder if the QA is good at the game? Not trying to dog them, just curious how they compare to the dudes that play the game WAY to much.

I don't know much about patches to consoles, but was just reminded of how specific people got beta codes. Couldn't they apply all patches to beta and reopen server? (I realize that might be crazy talk, but I'm out of my element when it comes to that stuff. Just brainstorming like I think it's my responsibility, lol.

Delusions of Grandeur, that's what my commander would say, until he realized I was right

Fixed exploit that allowed fighters to hold their opponent in side saddle with little opportunity for escape

Sorry to harp on this but I don't think I ever got an answer--is the inability to block in sub side control an oversight or there for a reason? If it is there for a good reason I would be less annoyed. If it is an oversight, why hasn't it been fixed?

(Love the game and the patches. Keep up the good work, EA)

It was a deliberate decision and balanced accordingly. U would have preferred to have block in that position, but we couldn't do it.

Considered not allowing ko's from there, but decided on what you see in game now as a compromise.

You know, say what you want about the game, but it's refreshing to have a dev actually interact with players to the extent you do on this forum. Not really many devs like that around these days.

Beta codes are different. With a BC, you are downloading a version of the game created by the devs for testing. I think creating a beta version takes a significant amount of time and its unrealistic to ask the dev team to create and distribute a beta version that works on regular consoles (I believe the devs and the QCers use debugged kits).

Also then you would have to convince MS and Sony to host a beta version of the game every month. Its just not worth it.

For this series yeah. Battlefield does have something like this though. Not really a beta, but kind of since they get to test the new maps/changes, etc. They really helped turn around BF4.

Re: New Patch Spoilers

Again, what about clinch spamming? Are we actually going to have it be like a parry if you block it? Silly as hell I can block it 10x but no significant effect to doing this, which only encourages it since it's no draw back.

You do get a counter out of it. That and the stam drain means you can get a body rock pretty easily if they're actually spamming it.

Re: New Patch Spoilers

I've found that after the clinch/TD denial they are so far away it is hard to hit them. Perhaps a stamina drain plus a slower rate of regaining stamina would be a good penalty for a denial.

Not on the thai clinch. You push the guy 15 feet away from you and it's impossible to counter unless you have Jon Jones with a side kick.

Re: New Patch Spoilers

Would like to see clinch punch health events along with clinch parries and standing arm traps.

Any chance we see switching stances before, during, and after strikes & grapples etc patched back in. Shifts would flow fluidly with the 360 head movement etc-easing the way for headmovement with mobile footwork and guard. Maybe some guard pulls?

Great patch so far the new combo mechanic seems promising.

Like when Weidman dropped Silva in a submissive clinch position?

Yeah definitely something like Côte dropped Saunders in the single collar position that would dope

It's happened a few times recently.

Re: New Patch Spoilers

Just caught up on this thread, looking to be another strong update. Looking forward to the changes along with the Imanari roll for Ferguson. Nice work GPD and dev team.
