Buff Vulnerability When Constantly Pressing Forward

[Counter Punch]

Re: Buff Vulnerability When Constantly Pressing Forward

Ehh I don't know man. This is one of the areas where i feel the devs got it right in UFC 4 when it comes to the Jab. The jab is supposed to be the safest strike and it is. It's great to use as a range finder and to set up combos. In reality, someone that knows what they're doing can really control a fight with the jab. Check out GSP vs Koscheck 2.

When you slip the jab and counter, it dishes out a little bit of extra damage but nothing too crazy. I agree the overhand should come over the top of it and do damage but only if the jab is thrown late in the overhand animation.

It will always be the safest strike in the game by virtue of it being the quickest strike in the game. What I’m suggesting is that there should be more of a penalty for throwing the jab predictably, so that someone “who knows what they are doing” with the jab can still be effective with it.

All you really did was say that you like the jab the way it is, which is fine, but you didn’t really address anything specifically that I said about the jab having so little risk for such a high reward. I think the game should ultimately reward intelligent use of the jab and penalize being predictable. Maybe that’s already the case, and I just don’t know what I’m doing.

Should be very easy for the Devs to weaken the block of the fighter pressing forward throwing hundreds of strikes, his block ability should decrease short and long term. I don't mean slightly.

There is no possibilty at all EA will ever create a sim. At least make the game balanced.

That is already a mechanic in the game if I'm not mistaken .

Re: Buff Vulnerability When Constantly Pressing Forward

Is it possible to chain the clinch with another strike , if so that is bad . Like if you can strike off a missed clinch grab

I think the 1-2 headkick needs work. This combo was useful in 3 when someone was hurt because you needed to work for that block break. It’s too easy to just rip this combo and get an easy stun unless you know it’s coming

Not really a pressing forward thing but what’s the counter to someone who blocks their body while swaying their head? It seems impossible to hit them up top & I’m not sure if leg kicks work like it does when they’re swaying while blocking their head. Doing this doesn’t seem to diminish their stamina much either so I’ve come across a few cheesers who constantly sway while blocking their body.

I have been finding some luck with the spinning backfist. It seems to land across about 80% of the sway/duck radius. Seems like the highest percentage shot and it does enough damage to make them rethink the strategy.

I know a lot of people hate it but give us back the parry. It’s the only thing that has ever really worked to punish pressure. Give it a recharge time so people don’t just run around swatting flies but can use a well timed parry to counter the predictable jab.

Re: Buff Vulnerability When Constantly Pressing Forward

The game needs a mechanic like if you circle around a pressure fighter and kick him from the side or behind with a heavy low kick or knee it should lead to a broken leg or rip lol. At least make those attacks super dangerous. Same goes for an elbow or hook from side or behind.

3-4 strike combos should open the window and make the pressure fighter extremely vulnerable.

I mean it would be risk and reward for both fighters. The pressure fighter could still cause high damage if you circle into hooks or kicks.
