UFC 3 forced me to retire at 30??!!

I'm a bit used to Fight Night where you go on until you don't feel like it anymore pretty much, so to my surprise I got to age 30 and they stopped my friggin career??!! What the hell is that all about? There's fighters in the rankings that are 40+ years old and they're still fighting but I can't? Interesting.

I also didn't notice any new generated fighters enter into the rankings. My whole career it was the same exact guys as far as I could tell. Game is good, but those two things kind of destroy the fun factor a bit.

Is there some type of upgrade/DLC or patches that uncap the career ceiling?

I haven't played career mode in months but as far as I remember, the age of your fighter really means nothing. I'm pretty sure you get 48 fights and then you retire.

This was the only thing that I could honestly complain about with UFC Undisputed 3.

I would have preferred them to keep in degeneration of attributes if it meant them allowing you to fight until you want to retire.

It wasn't a big surprise though, it wasn't in the previous two either.

They should've upped it to at the least 58. I think I'd be good with that. Whats the standard number of fights in the real world. Is it 48?

There is no standard in the real world. You have some fighters with well over 100 pro MMA fights and they are still active.

It would be great if it was based on damage sustained over your career.

Real injuries would be cool. Force you out for a year or something, come back with some of your stats down a little, depending on the injury.
