But that’s how easy it should be(assuming your fighter has high footwork). Just give lunges ridiculous vulnerability if you lunge into a strike.

Show me any clips of fighters with great footwork being stuck against the cage

It doesnt happen because they’re one lunge away from turning the corner.

My problem with 2 was that it lacked the high footwork caveat you just gave, literally any fighter could get around the opponent and off the fence in a single lunge when the vast majority of MMA fighters aren't great at that IRL. Like, Stefan Struve is awful at getting of the fence, as are Pettis, JDS and Rockhold, but they'd all circle the whole way around you with a single lunge in 2. The only problem I had with James Kraus' comment was "UFC 2 had this down", because I think it was too easy to get most fighters off the fence

Obviously it should be harder to keep fighters like Aldo, Wonderboy and Joanna against the cage than it currently is in 3, but I think it's about right for the Pettis' and JDS' of the world, you know?

Knee spam still there and very effective ...

We should be able to catch knees

Until you all get on board with removing these strikes from block it will always be a problem. Trying to slow down or add more vulnerability to those moves isn't realistic as they are low range, quick safe strikes to throw.

Like John said a knee catch would help a lot and be really effective

Is the advanced lunge the signature one?

You can feel the footwork with the top level guys but I still feel like it should be more apparent.

Take Wonderboy vs Hendricks as a prime example.

The advanced side lunge I find works really well to circle off the cage if my back is against the cage I'm trying to bait you into throwing so I can either counter your way in or advance side lunge to circle out and put them against the cage it works more times than not for me but I use a lot of movement when I play so maybe I'm just use to how it works?

When I say advanced side lunge I mean l1 with the right stick

GPD... this patch has given me a real, real taste of this game's potential. But please, please, please, please do something about this. Look at how easy he slips my jab every single time. I also can't follow up with another strike because of the recovery frames I go through that come with his slip. Look at how many times in the video I clap his head around with hooks while he moves it side to side directly in front of me before I get one rock. I also can't create distance against him. This player wasn't the smartest as he kept swaying side to side in front of me while I threw hooks but the game didn't punish him so it didn't matter.

Idk if you saw my post at the top of page 16 but a response would go a real long way mate. I just hope this is being acknowledged and thought about.

I feel you on that but hopefully the ratings would reflect that difference

There are flick lunges just by flicking the movement stick (very short, I have campaigned for more range on these)

Advanced lunges by flicking the movement stick plus a technique modifier (longer)

Signature by flicking the movement stick plus a technical modifier (only certain people have this, they are mostly switch stance lunges)

And also L1 plus the right stick will do advance evasions lunges

A well placed knee is currently the best defensive tactic against all these bob and weave pressure fighters as it doesn't leave you completely hanging waiting to get 1 punch koed.

just make a huge stamina in a missed knee or high vulnerability...
its almost impossible to play against someone who uses this kind of exploit

the problem is that spam to exploit the knee

I'm going to try and put together a video with some suggestions around this.
