@aholbert32, you put this in a particular way: what will cause you to consider not buying the game. I'll acknowledge this criterion, hopefully it doesn't give the devs the impression that realistic stamina, damage, move animations and pronounced stats for everyone are unimportant to me because of it. But the one thing I've thought about in those exact terms, "I may not buy it if it isn't there", is Modes (playability, replayability).
We're talking:
-a good Career Mode (devs, check all the Career mode threads, you'll find out what that is there, and more but most importantly no scripts)
- a Universe mode
- some other Offline modes, say that Championship ladder thing UD3 had
For Offline:
- more incentives to choose anyone but the top fighters in Ranked. Pronounced stats help a ton here, but there should be various meaningful bonuses for choosing lower rated fighters as well. A suggestion I've made before is give every player a randomised set of Featured Fighters that refreshes once the set has been completed, where using each fighter gives you considerably more points than if you picked someone else.
- a Random Fighter Only mode
- an Online Tournament Mode with some meaningful rewards for beating each opponent, the best being if you win the whole thing. I say meaningful rewards, don't know what these may be but I don't give a crap about Ultimate Team. Maybe some sort of a badge to let people know you've won a tournament, and what kind of tournament too: of 8, of 16, of 32.
I'm sure more can be thought of too. The EA UFC games have always been bare bones and no game worth its salt can afford to be bare bones. UFC 3 has Ranked and that's it. No more of that.
What I want:
-realistic power and stamina depending on the fighter
-pronounced stats and abilities for everyone - a guy may be really good at one thing only, I want it to show
-no more rockfests: if you get hurt too many times in quick succession or throughout the fight the ref stops it
-great, average and bad animations for the strikes
-one badly damaged leg kick and you're in big trouble in terms of speed of movement, power and takedown defence...oh, and moves requiring you to spin, jump, or kick high.
That's it for now. Should I make a new post if I think of something else or should i edit this one?
