Re: Let's talk about the Striking/Stand Up.
Dude this is a completely disingenuous response. I appreciate the effort you put into your reply but I literally can’t see a single argument you made in good faith, and it’s just beyond the scope of what I’m interested in responding to.
Even your example of “power armour” is Lewis literally backing up not even throwing committed strikes LMAO.
I'm sure you have, all I'm saying is that "We need more realism and less cheese" isn't an argument. It's a mission statement.
Meant as neither. I was just stating things as a matter of fact.
You personally? No idea. But some people definitely do, which is why I broke it down, just in case.
You want fights to be more realistic and play out like they do in real life.
You want whatever insight/instincts you've developed in real life, to translate to the game more than it does now.
You do not want repetitive tactics based on frame advantage and unrealistic/counterintuitive gamemechanics
Did I misunderstand anything?
Like I said, I'm for all those things. A lot of us are. I'd reckon that even the devs want this to a degree. The question is, how do you create all the nuances of MMA with a simplified approximation? And that's assuming it's possible at all.
I literally asked you how you'd fix the issues you bring up.
I think you're overestimating the average player. People don't give two ****s about the nuances you bring up and that's assuming they even notice. They just want to throw bombs and hope for cool KOs..
But even if that isn't the case, same question as before. How?
Why are you assuming that "EVO players" whatever you mean by that, would somehow be in favor of these changes? Have you ever actually gone to EVO or even met anyone that has? What the hell does "appealing to them" even mean..
Striking, assuming proper technique, is actually quite safe, even if someone puts their guard up. Not always, but usually. The tiny factors that determine whether or not a strike is safe on guard, don't really exist in the game as far as I'm aware though. So I'm not suprised by a simplified approximation of 'always safe on block'.
If you can come up with a realistic, skillbased, practical and dynamic system to determine when you are and aren't safe on guard, I'd be all for it though.
You can't here either.
Have you ever seen Prime Anderson Silva? First 3 minutes, he literally just studies his opponents. Feints, pokes, nothing too risky. Once he's figured out their rhythm and tendencies, he starts moving his head, pressuring hard. The fact that it takes you three rounds isn't the games fault, that's on you.
Entirely different win conditions, movement system, damage system, combinations, knockdown system, no juggles, no fireballs, no mids, no crouch.. So besides all of the core aspects, they're exactly alike..I guess?
You keep saying that. I have yet to see you actually make the case.
