    There would have to be some advertising, no doubt, maybe a commercial or something.

      Anyone else find it totally hilarious that the shove mechanic that was meant to deter non stop aggressive pressure is now used to set up cheap guaranteed takedowns/overhands?

        They're not guaranteed, you can TD Counter all Push Takedowns, I had somebody rage quit because I kept TD Countering their push TD lol.

            In the next game I'd like them to eliminate proximity based strikes. Expecting one kick and getting another can completely alter fights. If my range is trash when I throw a technique, I don't feel like the game should dictate whether or not it comes out. This is far from a huge problem in the game, but I'm not a fan.

              Only time thats nice is using close range front kicks to throw knees with guys that don't have knees.

                Why does Anderson Silva have 87 for striking stamina? Since when does he have stamina issues anywhere, let alone on the feet?

                  He doesn't. But he does have the lowest output of almost any fighter on the roster, with an average 'strikes per minute' sitting at just~3 strikes per minute.

                    Anyone else find Sean O’Malley so awkward and uncompetitive to use at 135?

                      Haven't used him a lot, but the guy has 2 UFC fights with his opponents having a combined record of 2-7 (in UFC), so it would actually be kind of odd if he were competitive.

                        I made a Ben Askren CAF, with realistic stats and moves. Strictly for use in quick match. I use him exactly how he fights IRL, and it’s been incredibly amusing.

                        Only 1 in 5 opponents are actually skilled enough to make it interesting, know who Ben Askren is, and can appreciate the way I’m playing. But otherwise it can be kind of hard finding good fights.

                        I’ve been honestly very surprised at how successful one can be using strictly wrestling - no striking whatsoever. I gave him horrible standup, and good (but not OP) wrestling. No JuJitsu moves or submissions - only wrestling.

                        His grappling stats are totally fair, 97 top game, 97 clinch grapple, 96 TDs and 96 clinch throws. The rest is low 90s upper 80s.

                        Only other real high stats I gave him was grapple stamina (98) and chin (97). I feel those are accurate and deserved. His chin is high mainly because of the Lawler fight, the literal physical size of his ****ing chin, and the fact that it’s the only thing he can rely on when standing because he would lose a boxing match against some people who post on this site.

                        Got a couple bulldog chokes on Robbie Lawler, and a couple rage quits vs 100 OVR cafs. Something humorous about fighting this maxed height, heavily tattooed, dreadlocks, jacked 100 CAF being used by a try hard... and I have this no-nense, dad-bod, librarian looking CAF with 75 standup. And I proceed to completely smoke them until they rage quit.

                        I’ll post some vids later

                          This would be absolutely valid if we didn’t have Frost, Bishop, Lee, and White being viable fighters. I just think O malleys punches are stiff and short armed. Nothing looks straight and distance managed

                            Diakese goes kinda nuts in this game. gave him an honest try yesterday, he isn’t half bad. I’d advocate for him getting some high slams though.

                              Well guys today was my official last day playing this. I’ve had it. Its not fun anymore. Tired of guys rushing you down with no stamina penalty at all. Faced some guy clearly lag switching when the fight went to the ground. Lost to a guy 29-28 where I outstruck him and had top control every round. There’s no reason to play this since they clearly have no intention of continued support. Plus too many other titles are coming out. Guess I’ll see everyone for the UFC 4. Eta

                                Last night I had a few Daniel Cormiers rushing me down non stop throwing huge barrages of hooks/uppercuts chest to chest. When I got koed I wanted to throw the controller out of the window...
