      Looks pretty awesome, much improved. Still has plenty of room to improve in the coming years, but they may finally have found the right formula for FN gameplay upon which to build. Hagler looks and fights realistically great, but not convinced with Hearns. He looks too big, not skinny enough, and I saw little of his powerful long punches. I wonder how many specific animations they have for punches. It's the key step to making each boxers feel different. If you're going to have less than 100 licensed boxers, it should be easy to get the punching animations of each boxer's punches simulated correctly. I think they have started to do that with some animations, but perhaps not enough yet.

        The boxer graphics look worse than FN4. I can't pinpoint exactly what looks off, but every video leaves me with this same feeling.

        Does anyone else feel this way?

          I wish they have better camera angles to use this time around. I do not like the default camera the way it centers all the time. The gameplay is still a little too sluggish for me. If thats the speed when they have full stamina imagine when their energy gets half way or depleted. You can tell the crowd will dead again.

            Yeah, Hearns looks more like a light heavyweight in that video.

              Hearns was the computer AI at the highest difficulty setting, so at least its not cheesy this year; but it definitely doesn't seem to offer much of a challenge.
              Hearns was not aggressive at all, and his jab seemed ineffective.

              Hopefully i'm just overanalyzing things.

                Looks like we're going to have to bump up that CPU Off awr slider............Just hope we don't get some lame cheese like that instant Jab-Counter from FNR4

                  Now that I've looked at the pic of hearns, his ingame avatar is entirely too big.

                    I feel like the camera is too overbearing. It accentuates the two boxers to where the ring looks too small. Fortunately, Phobia mentioned there are alternate camera views, but the one in this video is too zoomed in and heavy feeling.
                    Being kind, one to another, never disappoints.

                      Yea I mentioned a few times. Wide camera + simulation presentation = Much better than default. You can see about a foot worth of canvas under the fighters feet. So it is far enough out to see both fighters completely.

                        Phobia, have a quick question for you man. Dont know if you already answered. From the looks of this video, it looks like the stun window is gone correct?

                            Other than the punches, which look great, it LOOKS like the same game. The step, step, fight pattern kills it for me.

                            And yeah, Hearns is waaaay too big.

                              That's it..?? It's still FN Rnd 4. Very stiff movements, nothing close to free-flowing movements like in real life. This game doesn't look so promising to me.

                                I know what you mean, it is somewhat possible to box circles around your opponent, but do to the footwork/boxer movement it feels cumbersome.
