Re: EA UFC Stat Change Request Discussion Thread

Maybe it's an issue with the game in general, but he's WAY, WAY more powerful than he should be. Nick Diaz isn't OHKOing people left and right like he does in the game.

he's a relatively slow volume striker with insane cardio, a great chin and wicked BJJ. He's NOT a powerhouse like he is in this game.

There is many fighters are like that, I just think people pick Diaz more.

Probably. It just bugs me because I'm a huge fan of his IRL fighting style and it's totally different in game

Re: EA UFC Stat Change Request Discussion Thread

Not really a stat, but could you guys change the nationality from Overeem. He's Dutch, and has had the English flag on him since UFC 1, also Anik refers to him as the Brit or something.

Brian Ortega

Stats
Striking stamina 87 to 91
Grapple stamina 93 to 95
Endurance 89 to 91

Ortega has gone 5 rounds twice and to the third round in 7 of his 13 fights. Not only that he is always pushing the pace and on the front foot.

Switch stance 82 to 92

He is constantly switching stance during fights

Edit:

He should also have guard specialist perk.

As much as I like Ortega, he's a complete anomaly. He pretty much loses every fight until he finishes. He's outstruck, out controlled and stats over his 8 UFC fights are anything but impressive. Your suggestions for striking stamina and switch stance are overblown. The switch stat has to do with striking power carrying over anyhow, it doesn't prevent from switching. Ortega uses the switch as a mixup and usually pays for it. I haven't seen anything impressive from southpaw. What is impressive is his comeback ability and finishing rate.

The fact that he ‘pretty much loses until he finishes’ is more evidence to the fact that he needs his stamina and endurance increased.

He’s also not a big puncher so the fact he is clearly capable of, and frequently does change stances also justifies an increase from 82.

No, it just means you can't play Ortega like he's John Lineker. This also falls into the category of durability stats.

If can get behind that if you can get behind my switch ratings.

I will give you that. How about striking stamina 89 and endurance 95.

I don't know, I'd have to rewatch fights. 95 endurance sounds like a lot.

I'm actually ok with how Ortega is rated currently. After the upcoming Edgar fight his ratings will fluctuate one way or another. The more impressive he does against a high profile fighter the bigger the stat changes may be. If you were around during UFC 2's release, Ortega had a major thread of over 100 posts to get him buffed that I lobbied for as well. I just went back and skimmed through. 0hmega was instrumental in the change happening. He posted a gif of Ortega doing the Imanari Roll from an RFA fight... If they add that I wouldn't complain. On topic though, Ortega compared to the rest of the division's stats is good. It's also important to look at actual stats to back up changes. Brian's stats show him to be a very mediocre fighter, but we all know that he's a special talent. Translating that in game is tough.

Yeah he’s a special talent for sure. Obviously Ortegas main strength are the subs and ground game - specifically off his back and his endurance. To translate that in the game he needs the endurance boost for sure. (And higher ground stats but they are already the best in the division, He also needs higher level subs, He doesn’t have a single sub from half guard bottom)

Re: EA UFC Stat Change Request Discussion Thread

Woodley's Stamina is rated as 89?!

LOL cmon man this made me chuckle.

Re: EA UFC Stat Change Request Discussion Thread

Can my boy Derrick Lewis please have a level 5 get up perk?

Nobody just gets up when on the ground the way he does.

Literally just stood up against Roy Nelson. Even last night just stood up several times.

They should also create a 'Going Deep' perk lol

Just means he carries power deep into the rounds...or something...
