5 Rounders never going the distance

[ryangil23]

Do 5 rounders go the distance in even high level matches often? It almost never happens in my experience. I'd say mainly because once you fall behind a bit on stamina or damage then it's game over.

I been going the distance a lot lately fighting these top 10 top 20 people so much so that i get tired of it and get knock out trying to finish fights that I was ahead on the score cards.

80 % of my online fights end in the first, the rest in the second round which is just stupid. Many things wrong with this game.

I'm nowhere near high level, but the only time i get decisions are against AI when I put the damage sliders down a few bars.

come on you guys complain about baby damage and when damage gets increased you lot complain about not going the distance.

Once you start competing with top guys it will become more frequent. The game becomes about capitalizing on small little mistakes. When both players are aware of that it tends to go to a decision.

I can probably imagine ones against the top 20 would go to go the distance a lot more likely if you're good enough. I'm even surprised it's that high up before you start getting regular decisions.

Im wondering how high you have to go before it starts becoming more regular. Even quick match on ufc 2 i would get a decent number of matches going the distance against decent players but on UFC 3 it is extremely rare.

Quick match will almost never go the distance. I can't say really, I'm around rank 40 as of last night and most of the guys I compete with are top 100. If I don't get wreckless or fighting at HW it usually goes to a decision. I think I have one submission my entire career though lol. Though I don't have a lot of fights this season.

Considering that most players online refuse to play any defense besides holding block, and also tend to gravitate towards high-level strikers, I'd say decisions should be unexpected tbh.

You should try getting better at the game and moving up in the rating system then. You're part of your own problem.

Depends on the defense

Its notneccessarily the same people complaining about those two separate issues though.

I have an issue with the “baby damage” (nice term) and I also happen to believe that player skill and playstyle should solely determine whether or not a fight goes the distance. That aspect is fine the way it is.

Re: 5 Rounders never going the distance

I see the cards quite a bit. I take my time and don't really go hard for the finish until the last round.

Re: 5 Rounders never going the distance

I consider myself decent and I get decisions when I am fighting weaker opponents mainly because I let them so i get more round in. I also get them when I am clearly in the lead against a good fighter and I avoid big risks.

I would lose more decisions, but when I know I am behind I take risks trying to win so that can sometimes lead to a surprise Ko for me or me going out on my sheild. If it were real life not sure I would take the risks
