Submissions against AI nearly impossible?

[iceberg3445]

In career (medium difficulty) trying to submit AI opponents and having a VERY tough time. Even when I reverse their transitions and drain their Stamina they still get out in the third gate or so.

Can’t unlock any moves via submission challenges as a result of this.

Anyone else have this issue?

Max out your sub offense and youll be fine. I was subbing the AI on legendary before I hit my first ufc rival

Those training games can be pains.
I had to "try" and sub Jacare at 80 sub off. I got him after about 13 damn tries..

Once it was at about 90, and I had a few high level subs, things got MUCH easier as I had a lot of 3 gate subs that were pretty easy to get.

But before that, I just tried to gas them before even trying a sub, but the timers can make that hard.

In actual fights, I can generally tap the AI. Unless there is A marked sub off/def differential, which I like, it was too easy to tap guys like Nog and Maia with low level guys in UFC 2.

I’ll keep adding to my sub offense and try. I’m in the high 80s and couldn’t complete the submissions from triangle challenge with Cain Velasquez after trying over 20 times. I would drain his stamina after denying 3 transition attempts and the furthest I could get was the 3rd gate before he escaped.

It seems like they didn’t change the AIs submission escape capability when they weakened the submission gates, which is why it’s so difficult now.

Re: Submissions against AI nearly impossible?

Yeah, the stat is very important. I was complaining about it at first but once you see the AI opponent's stats it's often 10 points higher and it makes sense you're submitted. If all other factors are equal that's enough to submit you 95% of the cases. So it might need some tweaking. It's great that they've made some sliders for us to tweak ourselves. Awesome even. BUT that's only for a couple of game modes. We're stuck with default settings for most of the playtime.

The thing is that - on normal - it shouldn't be as hard. I just get the KO victory with my sub-guy as it's way easier to do regardless of how hard he sucks standing.
