EA SPORTS UFC 3 BETA COMBO LIST

Re: EA SPORTS UFC 3 BETA COMBO LIST

Think of the hard combos as the normal ones, while things that don't combo are thrown in succession, but slowly (not recommended). And you have soft combos in between, not too fast; not too slow.

Also, when I say slow, I don't mean a cooldown. Even with a "bad combo" you can throw the next attack as soon as you fullly recover from the previous one. But the full recoveries are long. And you also don't get the frames discount on the execution of the follow up. But, my point is that the things that don't combo aren't stricly hindered. They are simply not buffed by the "discounts" that fluid combinations receive.

So if I want to simply throw a 632 combination, which aint in this thread's hard combo list, it falls into the soft category, right?

Can you KO someone with a "soft" combo, or a combo that doesn't flow together and have the same frame advantages as the "hard" combos

I'm sure you can, you'll just be more vulnerable when throwing. Vulnerable as in leaving yourself more open to vulnerability windows and being less fluid.


Edit: you wont have the same advantage, no. Why would you?

Re: EA SPORTS UFC 3 BETA COMBO LIST

So on a "soft" combo it takes longer to retreat thus making it easier to be countered.

This is great news

Can't wait for the beta to try everything out, it's a shame I might not receive my code till 6pm or later.

Hopefully I'm wrong.

Are we able to use the 360 head movement while walking or just slip punches while walking?

Yes, I'm pretty sure.

Also, I think the soft combos are worse (less fast) later in the combinations.

If you combine two not hard combo, but soft comboable strikes, they come off pretty fast. But if you end a soft combo strike at the end of a 3 piece hard combo, the frames discount won't be as good. Does it make sense? Did I explain it well?

Sure. You can KO them like this.

You can't hold head movement while walking.

It makes sense yeah, thanks. Though what doesn't make sense is if my straight would be slow as heck when thrown after a rear uppercut - lead hook. That's a basic boxing combination that should have been already in the hard combos imo.

My coach would yell out "Golotah" ring side whenever he'd see a opportunity for me to throw this combination exactly. (6-3-2) Obviously if a jab was required before doing it you'd intuitively throw it, but the term meant this particular 3 piece combo for us at the gym. "Dicarlo", is another one he'd call out (2-3-2),which is there and a favorite of mine so at least that's a good thing.

Re: EA SPORTS UFC 3 BETA COMBO LIST

every combo should be the same speed, feels like i will be restricted to the hard combo list instead of creating my own unique combos.

"Own unique combos". No thanks, we don't want a repeat of EA UFC 2 where sketchy fake looking combinations were thrown all day. At least that way players that arn't particularly savy in striking will be a tad bit more educated by simply checking out the combo list.

If you want to throw weird combinations that have no place in there, then having them being sloppier than actual true to life ones is the way to go. imo of course.

Re: EA SPORTS UFC 3 BETA COMBO LIST

At the end of the day, what will matter most is if the soft combo at this 3rd hit will be slow enough to allow a block counter from the opponent. If it's not that slow, than there isn't a big practical difference between it and a hard combo.

Re: EA SPORTS UFC 3 BETA COMBO LIST

Its the best time to throw them irl. Throwing leg kicks without setting them up is dangerous. Put your opponent on the retreat with your hands and as they are moving out of boxing range the leg kick is open with little risk because they are on the move back

yup just ask Anderson Silva how dangerous not setting up the kick is.

Re: EA SPORTS UFC 3 BETA COMBO LIST

Given you can input strikes well before you should, and the combos don't require timing when you start pressing buttons, are we gonna see "finish him" type combinations and scenarios?

Seems like the obvious next step on this path.

Re: EA SPORTS UFC 3 BETA COMBO LIST

Anderson Silva is a drug cheat, he should not even be in the game. USADA exists to protect the fighters, but he wanted to do harm.

Lol What!?
