Re: EA UFC Stat Change Request Discussion Thread

I also don't understand why you would give a fighter low leg health when they don't check leg kicks at all? Nate got killed by RDA and started falling down after a while for not checking super hard leg kicks. I have never seen Nick get severely damaged from leg kicks before(I'm a huge Nick fan) Or why did they give Anderson Silva low leg health for breaking his leg?
Kevin lee is really good as a southpaw, especially with kicks. He throws his lead head kick from southpaw all the time. I think like 87-89 would make him feel more realistic.

So what would you do? Disable Nate from being able to check leg kicks?

Re: EA UFC Stat Change Request Discussion Thread

Something that has been bothering me since the beginning of this game is the fact that TJ Dillashaw's Takedown Attribute is 89, not a 90.

He's hit the undeniable styled takedowns in the cage plenty, ESPECIALLY in the John Lineker fight, he was a D1 NCAA Wrestler who was one match away from becoming an All-American in one of the toughest weights in the country.

Put his Takedown attribute at 90, as it always should've been, along with all the other suggestions I have made coupled with the end results of UFC 227.

Conor has 98 leg strength?
What the hell?

Dustin Poirer

Endurance to 90

Striking Stamina to 90

Leg Strength to 90

Toughness to 91

Footwork +1


Single Leg Guillotine Counter Level 2

Laser Focus Lvl 3/4

Jeremy Stephen's

Switch Kick Lvl 1

Nothing should be dropped on him due to his loss to Aldo. Good fight.

José Aldo

+1 Power

+2 to Heart Attribute.

Lead Body Hook from Lvl 3 to Lvl 4 (as I always believed it should have been)

Opportunist to Lvl 3/4

Would not mind Carved of Wood Level 3 being removed for Body Snatcher Level 3, he took Jeremy's Liver back to Rio.

TJ Dillashaw


Toughness to 91.

Leg Strength to 90

Power 93 to 95

Update his model.


Cody Garbrandt

Chin 90 to 89

Heart 91 to 92

Update his model.

Renato Moicano Carneiro

A Contender has officially arrived, and now these stat changes should make him much more viable in ranked. Hell, the dude was beating T-City prior to taking that dumb shot that got him choked out.

Toughness -89

Heart - 89

Body Strength- 89

Chin Strength - 89

Striking Stamina - 89

Endurance- 90

Submission Offence - 94

Submission Defense - 89 (only loss is to Brian Ortega)

Heart - 92

Striking Stamina - 92

Body Strength - 89

Chin Strength - 90

Top Game - 95

Every other kick bumped to level 2

Bumping this with this reminder before the patch comes out.

Re: EA UFC Stat Change Request Discussion Thread

Brian Ortega

Ortega has gone 5 rounds twice and to the third round in another 7 of his 14 fights and he has got finishes in the third round in 5 of those 7 fights. Not only that he is always pushing the pace and on the front foot. He has not once even looked tired at any point in any fight. People can’t deal with his endurance and end up getting finished.

Striking stamina 87 to 89
Endurance 89 to 92
Marathoner level 3

He is constantly switching stance during fights and finished Edgar from Southpaw with the lead uppercut.

Switch stance 82 to 90

He should also have guard specialist perk level 3

I was going to wait until he fought Max to start beating the drum for Ortega again but considering Max is currently out indefinitely I can’t wait another few months to get Ortega rated accurately.

Ortega currently isn’t a ‘top’ fighter in game as his style is to apply intense forward pressure and strike with zero fear of being taken down (infact that’s WHY he fights like he does) but his stats currently don’t allow you to do that in game.

His striking stamina and endurance are far too low, as stated above Ortega has gone 5 rounds twice and to the third round in another 7 of his 14 fights and he has got finishes in the third round in 5 of those 7 fights. Not only that he is always pushing the pace and on the front foot. He has not once even looked tired at any point, in any fight. People can’t deal with his endurance and end up getting finished.

Striking stamina 87 to 89
Endurance 89 to 92
Marathoner level 3

Due to his fighting style he frequently takes big shots but he’s never been rocked and only been dropped once in his UFC career and that was because his feet got crossed up against Guida and he popped straight back up. The guy has been in there with Cub, Edgar and Moicano (who recently KO’d Cub) he has the same chin rating as Edgar (who always shows incredible recovery and rightly has 99 heart but he does get dropped a lot.)

Look at him take a clean head kick like it’s nothing





Chin strength 90 to 92


His blocking is also on he low side. He has a unique blocking style where he puts his hands to his temples and uses his elbows to deflect strikes.







Blocking 88 to 91

Ortega is an absolute monster, he’s 14-0 and we still don’t know just how good he is.

Still requesting Derrick Lewis lvl 5 get up perk

I WILL NEVER GIVE UP

Re: EA UFC Stat Change Request Discussion Thread

I wish I noticed this a week or so ago as he just got buffed, but..

Why does Chad Mendes have only 93 TDD?
The man has shrugged off or sprawled every shot ever.. shot upon him in the UFC, I'm currently hunting his pre-WEC stats but I'm not expecting them to be different.

His TDD in the UFC and WEC is legitimately 100% though, if anyone deserves a, dare I say, 98-100.
It's Mendes.

Aldo has a 99, nothing crazy for Mendes to have a 96-99 as well.

I just looked it up on fightmetric, he has defended 100% of takedowns, but only 14 (I may be 1-2 off) have been attempted. I personally don't think that's enough for a 99-100 rating, in the same way I don't think Brunson defending the 9 attempted on him justifies that kind of rating, when for example Aldo has defended 20/22 takedowns attempts from Frankie Edgar alone.

95 or something like that would be good IMO

Hmm. That's fair too.
I get what you're saying, 95 isn't bad either, I'd be fine with that.

I know Frankie KO'd him, but he shut down Frankies running shoulder push/single leg shot he does so damn fast.

95 wouldn't be bad, I do want to point out though that people don't shoot on guys like Brunson and Mendes often because of their wrestling credentials and there's an easier path to victory through striking. That's why you might not see a big sample size for their takedown defense stat. It's like a star cornerback in the NFL not having many interceptions in a season because the opposing quarterbacks don't often throw to the receivers that they're covering.

While this is true, if we're not seeing them defend takedowns, I'm hesitant to rate them as highly as I would an Aldo or a Woodley who we've seen defend a ridiculous number of takedowns, like I think Aldo has defended 84/91 attempts and Woodley has defended 41/42 (those may be slightly off) and I think that should be rated higher than defending 14/14 or 9/9

I agree with this as well, I think anywhere from 95-98 would be fair for Mendes.

This is a valid point.
However Mendes is much more wrestling oriented that Aldo and Current day Woodley, so your not seeing him have that many people shoot on him because its literally fighting to his strength, nor has he fought a Maia type who's going to make his TDD look suberb haha (Unlike T-Wood, where almost half his stuffed shots are fron the Maia fight.

However, I agree that given the difference in TDs stuffed that 99-100 is too high for Mendes, but 95-98 sounds good to me, 95 or 96 in particular.

That other thing is, and this is more personal opinion than fact, but in the few Mendes fights I watched to see his TDD (Guida, Frankie and Lentz)

He stuffs shots so well I almost wonder if it makes people go "Yeah that ain't happening" and abandon it

Re: EA UFC Stat Change Request Discussion Thread

Donald Cerrone has a much lower switch stance rating and much higher heart at lightweight compared to welterweight. Surely these stats should be the same regardless of weight class? It's not like power or takedown ratings, which would naturally fluctuate as a fighter cuts or puts on weight.

I've posted about that too, its weird, huh?

His headmovement was awful at WW and good at LW, too, but i think that got fixed after the edwards fight.
