Ground and Pound in UFC 3 is worthless.

Re: Ground and Pound in UFC 3 is worthless.

I actually thought half guard postured up was a little OP, I can DESTROY people there, mixing elbows too the body and the head, they're so damn fast its insane.

But overall GnP seems to be designed to slowly wear an opponents health down it seems, hold the CPU in postured up half and elbow its body endlessly, you'll see the gradual long term body damage accumulate, it seems to be quicker if said area is in a health event.

Same with if you GnP someone's head to flashing health stage postured up in half as say, Eddie Alvarez, posture down and sink in a arm triangle, health events seem to slow gates.
That said, if you get the head to flashing in postured up half. A few more elbows will win the fight.

Edit: This said, I shouldn't say half is OP. Half is the only spot where GnP feels truly dangerous. Mount is too easy to escape given its such a dominant position. Crucifix is appropriatly brutal atleast.

Plus you don’t see your opponents arm health anymore like you did in UFC 2. So in UFC 3 you have no clue if anything is happening. Sometimes the head will lose health faster then the block will break. It’s weird and makes no sense at all.

The first time I got someone in full mount who was spamming Diaz on the feet..I got so excited. Time to break his face. 20 punches later with him turtling and nothing happening..I knew bro. I knew. The problem is, will enough of the community to complain for it to change? Most people I see here busting a nut over the striking.

Worthless? LOL, not even close. I've gotten a few GnP wins and my ground game is crap. Your ground game must be horrible.

Re: Ground and Pound in UFC 3 is worthless.

In real life if a fighter doesn't block there face they are gonna get destroyed. I think body shots on the ground is too strong.

Well, the actual animations and GNP is soft & just off. But the GNP needed to be decreased from UFC 2. The time it took break the block were reasonable, it takes a while IRL it was just AFTER that with the elbows that looked super ugly and shouldn't have taken that many more shots to finish though.

But to keep the ground game sim, fights shouldn't end any faster from GNP than they do now, the overall interactions just need to be better in general. Skilled fighters should be hard to put away from GNP and given a chance to get out of a bad position, just as IRL. But it just needs to be done in better fashion.

Then you're playing bums. The only way you get finished on the ground in this game is to be a complete moron transitioning with bad stamina.

Your telling me my ground game is horrible??? lol I’m the freaking dude with 5,000 subs in UFC 2. My whole game was the ground. It’s a freaking beta were half the ppl probably don’t even play online and just hopped on to try it. I’ve finshed tons of ppl in full mount from the UFC 3 beta, but they all freaking sucked and didn’t even know what they were doing.

It’s dumb comments like this that make it hard for devs to know the truth. A lot of you ppl just post BS or beat someone who sucks and think you have skill. Then you come on these forums and say what you think this game needs to be better and your wrong.

Why not allow body shots in mount?

Re: Ground and Pound in UFC 3 is worthless.

Why not allow full mount from half guard postured up? They took it out of UFC 2, so why not have it back for UFC 3? Just seems weird i can’t transition that way and side control is the only option i have.

I'm certain they do have half guard postured up to full mount. Sure this happened to me, perhaps only available for certain fighters.

If Dariush doesn't have it, then none of these ten should have it, and Dariush doesn't have it.

If it's in the game it must require a modifier input because I never see it on the hud.

I think block drain and arm damage are one and the same now..
You can chip away the overall block health and armbars will drain it in the later stages, but the block absorbs WAY too many ground strikes. So you can't even beat someones arms down in mount a take their arm for a damage advantage armbar..

Also wish the camera shake for GnP was optional.
And that elbows didn't cause that weird.. stun? State where you look completely out of it eating punches, but your actually blocking them.. if that has to be in the game I kinda think it should be a ground FTF position, where they have a recovery meter and you can either pound em out or go for one of those new FTF subs I can never hit.

Haven't fought against Khabib so I'm assuming the transition isn't exclusive to him.

Pretty sure Lee and maybe even T-Ferg have it, I've seen it a few times.
I thought Dariush had it for some reason, he should, anyway. *Runs off to check*

EDIT: Dariush indeed has a mount transition from postured up half.
