    Thanks. Looks like we finally got knee on belly. So at least there is a confirmed new position.

      It seems to me that the focus is on stuff outside the octagon so I think they want to show that it isn't only a UFC game

        Unfortunately, I don't think they would ever do transition based submissions because noobs would lose instantly online

          I think it would be more user friendly than the mini game. All you have to do is deny or transition, people are already familiar with that.

                I really want to know the answer to this as well.

                  There is a lot of good stuff here but one thing that is really disappointing is not one new offline mode. At least give us title defense mode. [emoji20]

                      Transition based subs definitely more user friendly for people who understand the basic mechanics but a lot of people online will not have that knowledge. Mini-game allows people who don't know how to block transitions to survive longer and feel like they are able to fight off the submission, plus maybe the other person could mess up an input. I'm sure you've gone to ground with these people before and just instantly got mount and they couldn't get up. (Then they send you a harshly worded message)

                        Everyone I've played knows how to deny or transition. Its more direct than a mini game that is irrevalent to the gameplay. However there are way more players I've faced that literally dont know how to play the mini game, they either figit or quit out once the mini game pops up.

                          They changed the sub system somehow.

                          “ A new submission system was built to offer a simplified player experience, with more ways to transition into submission attempts, accelerate a finish, or deploy high-impact slams to escape them.”

                          I wonder what this means exactly

                            "There will be a new submission system that is more reminiscent of the "WWE 2K" series rather than the two-stick submission attempts. Striking inputs have also been overhauled where shoulder button modifiers are removed and striking will focus how long you press a button. Players can throw quicker strikes with a tap, while holding the button will result in slower, more damaging blows."

                              Like maybe it means there are more positions to transition into subs from... like a heel hook from guard bottom or something.

                                I just saw a preview on a site called shacknews

                                The most interesting things I found were:

                                You can even step away from Reebok with your apparel, but only with your created fighter. Who’s ready to wear some Pride gear?

                                When the action begins, wherever you choose to partake in it, expect to find a new camera angle that’s lower than it was in UFC 3, as well as something EA Vancouver is called high impact movements. When you deliver a fight changing shot, expect to see and hear the devastation in slow motion, down to the ripples on a fighters face when they get cracked.

                                There will even be a full WFA (World Fighting Alliance) league that players can start in.


                                Really like the fact that there is a new camera angle, the fact that it seems you can first fight in the backyard or other location and then move on the WFA were you can be the champion first and then decide if you want to go to the ufc.

                                It also seems there is pride apparel and probably also strikeforce, that were the banner was for after all I think

                                Also found this:
                                There will be a new submission system that is more reminiscent of the "WWE 2K" series rather than the two-stick submission attempts.
