Hopefully this game will involve more of the strategy that we see in the RL UFC. Play against the cage, scouting out an opponent, etc...

[Phobia]

I am torn, I am looking forward to this and EA's MMA game. I just hope they fix the robotic movement, add the cage as a tool to be used and a better submission system.

Im super hyped for this game.

[Vast]

what kind of strategy does the cage even play? You mean like that Couture hug a dude against the cage for a whole round? If so i say nay.

[LingeringRegime]

Hell yeah!

[gamer23]

Well it plays a big role in ground control or escaping from being on the bottom.

I actually liked the submission system.

Really? I think it was a good first time thing. But I think it just lacks depth of what it requires to get a sub locked in. It was so easy to just click the stick and bam you are fighting to make them tap. But putting a sub in is not that easy.

I agree with you that the system works and is balanced. I just would like to see something with little more depth.

What - clicking the stick and often having to not work for it? It's kind of poor.

Very pumped to hear about this! Hopefully 2010 is just what the doctor ordered!

You still had to work for it. There were three stages of submission. You click the stick to get to the first stage, move the stick for the second and third stages. In the end, its a video game. I dont think most people want an overly complicated submission system.

Sometimes you work for it, other times you don't.

You can be completely dominating someone and then get subbed because you happen be not be at full stamina and they do something like reverse a slam. Some of the subs are almost automatic.

It's pretty poor.

Also the fact you just click the stick and put someone into a sub animation is kind of poor. They really need to rework it.

What subs are automatic? Also each sub is position based. Its not like I'm in someone's guard, click a button and I'm have them in a rear naked choke. Triangles happen when someone is in your guard. RNC's happen when you have their back. you have to position yourself.

Also, its damn near impossible to get submitted at full stamina or even a little below. I've never seen anyone or been submitted with anything more than half stamina. I'm not saying the system is perfect. I wouldnt describe it as poor though.
