    Are there any changes to Live events/event mode??

    I remember in Live events you could pick the fighter who you thought would win irl and play with them and earn rewards. Is everything going to be the same? any new/different rewards??

    Also has anything changed in event mode?

      Event mode was pretty weak. The rewards should have stacked.

            Did they end up adding sliders in for event mode?

            I really hope so, otherwise I'm probably gonna have to do my universe through Fight Now and Tournaments and only using Event Mode to mix weight classes (Good lord I hope we can mix LHW+HW/WW+MW/FW+LW, ect, ect as well as the preexisting ones)

            Are mixed weight tournaments possible? Or Open Weight? That'd be ******* amazing.

              Not at release. You guys have to make some noise about this because right now its only me.

                Live Events
                Live Events I'm not sure what they could do differently. The only thing I that I noticed in EA UFC 2 was the fact we had fighters who were in one weight class that weren't in another weight class that made some fights unable to play a Live Event for bonus points for playing out our prediction.

                That was one thing that bothered me about live event fights, but I was thankful to at least be able to make a prediction.

                Custom Events
                Custom Event Mode, needs game sliders accessible to it as well. It also needs an option to be able to make both Red & Blue Corner Champions like EA MMA was able to do. That way people doing their universe's can have unification fights.

                Say their Universe the Champion was out so an interim title was up for grabs. But in order to play out a unification match between the real champ and interim champ we would need to be able to have this kind of fight, animations, audio, & presentation.


                Mixed Weight Class Tournaments
                Let me say that would be awesome.

                I was hoping fight now would of been updated to have mixed weight class fights but maybe that's accessible in Fight Now Custom. I'm not sure but I hope this is true, that way we don't have to go to custom events just to do a mixed weight class fight with friends, family, or the CPU.

                I wish invite only quick matches had mixed weight class fights as an online option as well. Mixed Weight Class was in EA UFC 1 with online access but it was taken away completely. Keep it out of ranked, I understand why they changed this in EA UFC 2.

                  Duly noted. I'll happily make some noise for that.

                  I'd love to see sliders in event mode, I imagine ill be using sliders for most fights, so this really hurts event mode for me, as its the best way to play a universe mode.

                  I think all offline modes should have sliders really. Otherwise it limits what you can enjoy if you do choose to use sliders.

                    Event mode is THE mode for offline sim players and these are exactly the players that want to use sliders. It is very disappointing to read that sliders are initially not available for this mode.

                    I hope that the team works on event mode presentation for the next installment. EA does not have to reinvent the wheel (just invest time and money). UD3 event mode had nice intros and was more immersive overall.

                      Re: Are there any changes to Live events/event mode??

                      We should be able to have full customization for Custom Events. It doesn't effect anyone else besides the offline user, so why shouldn't we be able to have the offline experience we want?

                      I should be able to run Max Holloway through the featherweight division and then bump him up to LW if I want. There should never be limitations to the type of matchmaking an offline player can have.

                      And we should definitely be able to have any match type that the UFC has ever put on. Title fight, interim title fight, vacant title fight, 3 round fight, 5 round fight.

                      It would also be exceptional if you could do a Champ vs. Champ fight an assign the titles to the red and blue corner. So lets say you do Stipe vs. DC, there should be a way for us to tell the game that we want Buffer to announce DC as the light heavyweight champion and then Stipe as the heavyweight champion. If we do McGregor vs. Holloway we should be able to have it say McGregor is the lightweight champ and Holloway is the featherweight champ in the intros.

                      If I want to do a Gaethje vs. Woodley fight for the welterweight title, I should be able to customize it so that it's Woodley as the WW champ and Gaethje as the LW champ if I want it to be so.

                        At some point we have to work on the presentation elements of this game a little more and really hammer home the immersion of the game. From what I've seen, it feels like we stalled out this year on adding much in this area.

                        Gameplay is important and core to a solid game. But it feels like the competitive online gets a lot more of what they want while those of us who still play video games as a form of escapism and immersion are getting less and less of what we want from our $60.

                        Somebody needs to sit down and watch the UFC events and say, why doesn't our game have any kind of intro scene for Custom Events? How come we don't have any co-main event audio for the second to last fight?

                        I know the budget is usually the answer for everything. But can we please carve out a little for the throwback video game fans?

                          No changes to event mode is a real bummer. A few new Bruce Buffer lines couldn't be too much to ask, right?


                          And some noise for sliders in event mode here as well..

                            Besides.

                            They had all this funding to gut Ultimate Team and make it something quite different when people hadn't asked for it.

                            Why didn't they improve Event Mode or add Universe mode when people did ask for these?

                            It's important for offline players & replayability :/

                            At the very least, could we get the sliders into event mode?
                            Gameplay is the priority and it should be.

                            But there has to be some ability to give us a little bump in some of the other areas. It just looks off when it feels like the exact same presentation as the last game.

                              At least add custom sliders.

                              This is the only mode I play as an offline player, except for Career once.

                              Please patch in custom sliders.
                              I believe everything is the same including weight classes.
