    Commentary Bugs and Mistakes

    So I've come across a few peculiar commentary lines since launch, I figured I'm not alone so I've made this thread for folk to report any weird commentary issues they've found as I couldn't find another one.

    So far I've had:

    * Headkick KO's called as punch KO's and vice versa.

    * Leg kicks are often called head kicks.

    * Many of the "This fighter" lines are too vague to tell which fighter they're talking about.

    * Anik will often stay "He's up, but he's still hurt" when you perform a getup from the ground, regardless of how you got there.

    * Anik will ponder why you're not working the body much when your exclusively working the body.

    * Rogan will scream how "the champions in big trouble" when you rock the challenger.

    * Anik will occasionally mention how you've got to watch out for the powerful kicks of.. Dan Henderson, however this is one of the "this fighter" dialogues and not actually specific to Hendo.

    * Several Fighters commentary refers to them being in Weightclasses their no longer in, sadly the best example springing to mind ATM is Anthony Pettis, but ill update when I remember others. RDA has LW commentary that plays at WW and vice versa.

    * GSP, York Romero, Jacare Souza and Luke Rockhold have all been at one time or another called "The current Middleweight Champion of the world" in the early commentary of a fight by Jon Anik despite only 2 of them even being former champions.

    * No love for Robert Whittaker during title fights, have to play non-title bouts to get the commentary to acknowledge him.

    * At the end of the 3rd round of a 5 round fight "End of the fight" dialouges will often play or Anik will say the match is over.

    * Switching to Orthodox from Southpaw will cause Rogan to say "He's switching back to southpaw" or something like that, there is no commentary line for returning to orthodox from southpaw, or its bugged.

    * Attempt one submission and Aniks post-round commentary reflects on how you spent the whole round setting up and working on submissions.

    * She's are occasionally called he's and vice versa.

    From Mickosh:

    * I KOd somebody with those stupid short punches from side control and during the replay Rogan was going on about a huge slam KO. After that Anik jumped in and talked about a huge KO punch. Very weird.

    * During fight finish replays (I believe for a KO) Anik sometimes refers to the fighter as “this young fighter”, independent of the fighter’s age. May even be Big Nog.

    * Anik sometimes asks Rogan for this thoughts, but there is never a response.

    * When you see a recap of the action of a decision (starting at round 1), Rogan mentions that we are watching the finish of the fight.

    * Anik is obsessed with lower jaw swelling and comments on this one or twice in every fight.

    From MadChendez:

    * Anik saying that is a kick that even Edson Barboza would be proud of...when fighting with Edson Barboza

    * Anik saying he's about to get knocked out at the most innpaproriate times.ie. nobody is rocked

    * One leg kick lands Anik says something like he's going to have to start checking those leg kicks dude. There's a similar one with body shots.


    If anyone else has come across commentary oddities or bugs please do report them, hopefully we can squash a few bugs.

      In career they said that Little Nog only had 7 fights in the UFC and he was 38-10 at the time.

        I would imagine since Rogan didn't sign on for 3 there would be a lot of gaps in the commentary.

          Re: Commentary Bugs and Mistakes

          Commentary is a complete mess, especially compared to other current sports titles (2K/Fifa). Comments are constantly out of context and way too generic. Anik and Joe referring to roster fighters as “this fighter” is just amateurish for a 2018 videogame. I understand that Rogan did not want to do lines, but they should have just taken him out completely.

          Anyway, here are some errors that I can think of, in addition to the ones mentioned in the OP.

          * Anik sometimes asks Rogan for this thoughts, but there is never a response.

            Oh for sure.
            It's not as bad as I expected honestly, Anik says some weird Anik s*** as he does, grappling hasn't got much commentary outside of Joes UFC 2 stuff and there are a few bugs and oddities, but its not awful.

            I am hoping for Jimmy Smith in UFC 4, keep what Rogan lines they can so they can keep Joe in, but have a majority of the commentary and color done by Smith and Anik (Cruz or DC would be welcome, but unexpected)

              Thanks, I'll add these.

              You're right with this "this fighter" stuff, too, sometimes its so broad you honestly don't know who they are talking about, I'll often get "Oh he needs a knockout" in super close fights, and you just can't tell who they are referring too, there are several other examples but that one reeeeally irks me.

                Commentary is by far the worst area of improvement in this year's version of the game.

                  Anik also likes to shout 'He might be out!' when you land an insignificant jab.

                    Just go to the music settings turn on jukebox and custom slide the commentary all the way down and the music all the way up so you can listen to the music while u fight instead of the bootleg commentary. Really gets you in the fight mode as well.

                      In career mode a lot of times when you choose the predict the fight promotion and you say knockout 1st round then when you actually win the match by knockout the commentators say He predicted to win by submission and he did. Something like that it just sounded so strange i was huh i never said i was going to win by submission and i didnt.

                          Hi!
                          I was in Division 3 in Ultimate Team online championships. Then I lost a lot of fights and my division points (or rating) dropped to 0. Immediately afterwards the problem started.
                          When I select a fighter to play with and press "Options" to start the search, there is an instant mistake "Can’t find opponent". If I select all fighters, the result is the same.
                          So, now I'm still in Division 3 and I can’t play online in Ultimate Team.
                          There are no problems in online Ranked Championships and online Quick Fights. I can easily find opponents there.
                          Could you help me with that problem? How can I solve it?

                              There are also bugs with Bruce buffer, he doesnt say certain submissions you done, he will say win by submission then goes silent and then pick back up by saying your name.

                              Also when doing a tournament in the final fight the 2nd fighter doesnt get announced it remains silent
