Re: UFC 2010 Undisputed Demo Available, Post Impressions Here

I think the big thing is if they would set fatigue higher the KO problem wouldn't be a huge issue. Realistically, fighters would be gassed in the 2nd at the pace they go in the game. They also wouldn't be throwing huge punches in later rounds. It's almost like they need to have punch/kick power fade with fatigue.

+1

I wish there was a cumulative fatigue for throwing strikes. I love that you can gas out with a flurry of strikes in a row, but I can throw over 50+ kicks in a 3 round fight without any effect on my stamina. I feel like nick diaz... except I am not pawing at someone but instead throwing monster leg/body/head kicks (almost always from the back leg too).

This sums in up. I fought with Machida this weekend a lot and I just circled whoever I fought with an occasional flurry. I think the big thing is if they would set fatigue higher the KO problem wouldn't be a huge issue. Realistically, fighters would be gassed in the 2nd at the pace they go in the game. They also wouldn't be throwing huge punches in later rounds. It's almost like they need to have punch/kick power fade with fatigue.

Yea Pete that was my thoughts to on fixing alot of the issues. Fatigue needs to set in much quicker. Not only with the amount of punches in a row, but also the amount of punches thrown in a match. If there was a negative for throwing a 100 power shots then you would see them less and more so of the quick strikes with power shots dribbled in.

I'm at the point where I can work the ai pretty easily on the ground. Way too easy to get to mount.

Yep, same for me. Not sure how much depth this game is going to provide for offline gamers, as once you get the controls down, it will be very tough to lose to the CPU.

With the way the stats decrease over time and with age. I can see losses coming early career when you are low on the ranks and poor stats. Then middle or rise of your career dominating because stats will be upped. Then end of career taking alot of losses due to decreasing stats.

So even though it is getting easier to beat the CPU. That might help keep the single player challenging and realistic.

yep I m in the same boat - got the comp figured out on expert and I dont lose to it now. I play this game mainly head to head with a group of friends and its much more fun than playing the AI. The game can get very mechanical and not fun against the computer once you crack it - real people will always be more fun.

agreed - career will be much tougher just due to the difference in stats when you start fighting stiff competition. One thing Im very happy about this year is that ratings do matter.

Re: UFC 2010 Undisputed Demo Available, Post Impressions Here

Probably.

I honestly would prefer it was just 5 min rounds straight up and not accelerated clock..

Then no fight would go past thye 2nd round...Accelerated rounds are a MUST...Each round should be 2-2:30 Real TIme.

True 5 min rounds would be nonesense...But there should be an option for round duration or accelerated clock on/off.

Re: UFC 2010 Undisputed Demo Available, Post Impressions Here

JUst thought of something...Only had about 15-18 fights as i had limited time this weekend to play the DEMO...But i noticed noone got cut,bruised or didnt have any swelling to speak of.

Is facial damage and blood turned off for the DEMO?

Means nothing towards gameplay, but is a requirement IMHO....Just curious. If it is turned ON...Maybe i just didnt notice it or they lessened the effect (wasnt thrilled with it in 09).

Re: UFC 2010 Undisputed Demo Available, Post Impressions Here

Well I am starting to get the hang of it, obviously a lot to learn still.

My biggest frustrations other then subs, is when I work hard to get to full mount, I have like 5% success rate posturing up without the cpu kicking me off or whatever. Especially against machida and shogun. This is on expert btw.

As few others have mentioned, the clinch game is too hard for me on expert, like I can't really pull off the clinch and knee someone like I could with shogun on experienced or advanced. So I try to stay away from clinch except when they try to take me down. Although I need to try to go for the slams more often in the clinch so I will be working on that.

I didn't really like the how the sway works on it's own, but I love the counter striking. I also like catching leg kicks and then leg sweep them to take them down.

I JUST learned how to posture up yesterday night, since I've been playing all night. So I am happy for that, since It was getting bs, since I kept getting stand up as I didn't know how to posture up and gnp.

Btw, it was nice to find this forum since I've been looking to find a place to talk about the demo since the community forum is down.

Ive noticed it quite a bit after I control someone on the ground for a while - getting up they go into the fatigue stance (like last year) it seems toned down a bit though

3 questions -

does spinng the RS still prevent take downs? I know its more ratings based this year but only if I hit back on the RS before the shot am I able to stop it usually.

also do leg kicks make the opponent much slower or do they limp at all, havent noticed much myself

and can a fight stop due to cuts? havent seen it (edit: been confirmed its not in this year, oh well thanks)

If you land enough leg kicks the opposing fighter will eventually look like he is walking in quicksand (extremely noticeable) and be slower on lunging strikes.. they also seem to struggle more with takedown defense but I'm not sure.

Haven't seen a fight stopped due to cuts but earlier in this post someone said that a round was paused so a doctor could check out a cut. I don't generally get many cuts but it seems the best way to do so is with repeated weak strikes on the ground (non-postured up strikes) and standup elbows.

Fatigue is ON - You can test this yourself by turning on the Stamina bar once you are in a fight just hit start, go to options and turn it on. Temp stamina and Perm stamina are there.

Cuts are on. Happen to quick.

I have also had a fight paused due to a cut over my eye, I was fighting as Rampage. It shocked me as the doctor came in and looked at me, then the fight resumed. Nice addition.
