Well it was fun for awhile I guess but I'm done with FNC...I love this game and hate it at the same time and its starting to torment me...Just played with the new tuner and even though they did some good things they also added some BS which makes me think they'll never get it right...shame too because this could be an awesome game...but i just can't do it to myself anymore...yes they fixed the body spamming but now i see a game where flash knockdowns are abundant...and it was me flashing dudes with my uppercuts rated a 5?...not only that but counters are insane and IMO the punch blocking is weaker...add these things up and to me it feels like im playing Mike Tyson punchout...who knows they might get it right but whoever said in another post that whenever they add a new tuner or patch that its a totally new and different game was 100% right...for the time PS3 was down I erased the patch and had an enjoyable game right out the box...but once you beat legacy and champion mode it gets kinda stale and all your left with is online and with the settings the way they are thats what killed it for me

Re: Officially Done
Yeah ... the lack of knockdowns for me and numerous amount of knockdowns for the computer ruins it for me. I am sick of dominating fights and still losing cause I got knocked on my *** 4 times. It is sad cause I like everything else about it. ( Even though Legacy Mode could be better ) It will go a long way in helping me get NCAA Football when it comes out though. -
Re: Officially Done
+1. this is the worst fight night IMO. i liked the last one better. this is a very frustrating game. the computer throws WAY too many punches even with the slider all the way down. the mechanics of this game just done feel as responsive as they should. im not a boxing guy, i just like playing the games, so im not a purist so im not looking for the little things like some are, and this game still falls on its *** for me.
best buy is offering a $30 gift card for trading this in. um yes please.Comment

Re: Officially Done
I have to disagree with your conclusion. Ever since the new tuner I've actually been in more sim fights then before. Trust me I was an advocate of the flaws that this game presented, and I protested them through this site. I don't spam, I don't run, I actually play the game the way its supposed to be played. I honestly feel that the reason you are done with the game is because you are not having any success. But to "Each its own" not everybody is going to be happy, and EA can't please everyone, but I would say that if there was a poll taken the majority would say this game is a great game.xXxDrUnKeN_MaStAxXxComment

Re: Officially Done
Actually 16-5 isn't necessarily impressive in OWC if you skip fights against more skilled boxers and take those against less skilled boxers. (e.g. a 91 versus an 85).
That's no knock against you, because I have no idea what fights you have taken or turned down. I'm just saying your record in OWC isn't a true indication of success of failure. Your overall rating is a much better gauge.
I agree with Steelernut. Fights are a lot more sim online than before the last change.
EDIT: But OWC is a different animal than regular head to head (which I play). The disproportionate dimensions of height and reach are ridiculous.Comment

Re: Officially Done
I would also add that given the subject matter, "success" and "failure" can't be measured by wins and losses. Success, IMO and I think possibly the person who made this comment, is defined not by W-L record but by overall enjoyment of the game. Clearly the OP is frustrated with the overall impression of the game regardless of W-L, as am I. As frustrated as I am, I am willing to wait out one more title update, and here's why:
Unless I am mistaken, this is the first version of FN that broke tuners and title updates apart into two components. Whether or not EA should have been aware of the new mechanics of doing updates this way, in my judgement they were not. I think that the overall effect of update 1.01 and tuner 1 should be tempered by this. Tuner 2 seems to address more issues and be more responsive to comments made by players. My hope is that 1.02 will be just as effective and we will finally get the game we should have gotten in March. The dynamics of that are separate issue that I won't bore you with here, but if EA can't get things all but completely right with the 1.02 update and tuner 2, then I fear I may be in the same camp as the OP.AdamComment

Re: Officially Done
Well since you dont fight in OWC let me tell you how it works...my boxer is rated an 82...in OWC a lesser fighter is not going to fight you because of your higher rated boxer...so for the most part your left to fight same rated boxers or in my case higher rated boxer with 1 or 2 lower rated opponents.LOL iIm proud of my 16-5...and head to head is a different animal these 2 ways....your fighting allready with established boxers with most of thier attributes maxed out...and also if your opponent picks a certain fighter say like ALI you know his strengths and weaknesses allready...in OWC you dont have such luxury.....so your right 2 different animals indeed..OWC is where the wild things are...Last edited by Build_Destroy; 05-17-2011, 11:52 PM.Comment

Re: Officially Done
Hey Brah I don't mean to bruise your ego but 16-5 is not very good. But hey lol if your proud of that then so be it. I play OWC and H2H. Anybody who plays OWC knows when you first start out with your boxer the competition is very scarce. Now if you said your record was 40-2, then I probably would have taken notice on why is this guy "officially Done"; reason being a record of 16-5 IMO doesn't reflect a credible critic of a game, so saying your officially done with the record you posses, is equivalent to Rex Grossman saying Peyton manning is garbage. I'm not the best at the game but I'm pretty decent (not tryn to boast what so ever). I just feel that to say your done just because your not having the success you thought where gonna have, then blame it on the game, is a sorry excuse IMO. I've had stretches where I've lost 5 in row, matter of fact in my last ten fights I've only won 5, but I don't blame the makers, I blame myself and try to get better. I'm not saying this game is perfect but IMO its the best boxing game to date. Maybe the problem is your not as good as you think are, so hey if your "officially Done" then its your choice, I don't think you'll be missed one way or another.xXxDrUnKeN_MaStAxXxComment

Re: Officially Done
See this is where dudes try to come off as intelectuals and sound stupid...if you follow the posts nowhere did I say my 16-5 record was very good , all i said is I wouldnt call it a failure as far as having success playing the game and that i was proud of it...so all of a sudden in your own admission you can bash the game like you have been doin the last couple of months and then have a problem with me when i do it only because you like the last tuner that was released?.....lol what a hypocrite...aint you the same dude whos posts where closed because of your complaining?...yeah the game hurt my ego...sorry i hurt yoursComment

Re: Officially Done
Shoot, 16-5 with a base fighter (81 is a base fighter with gold boosts) in OWC is freaking good because you are constantly fighting 85-91's. That was the case with me.
I am done as well. I leave this game having won 10 straight online ranked/OWC fights in a row, losing 1 by DC before the fight started and losing to relentless in a couple of unranked fights. In spite of the exploits, hoops to jump through and overall BS. I beat several of the top 100 as well, so I know I gave it my best. I bought this game for the online play, but I can't wait for the freezes to be fixed. the end of June is too long. I love boxing, but I feel like I have been stolen from. Period.Comment

Re: Officially Done
I never once said I liked this tuner. I said that this tuner projected out with more sim fights. Secondly I only bashed the game when it came to lower body spamming (I wasn't the only one). Thirdly my post where closed due to a OS member saying things that where not true. What I was trying to express to you is that this game overall is a damn good game, but if you want to get rid of it then do what you do. IDK I guess its just hard for me to understand that you dislike this game so much you want to get rid of it, I was trying to persuade you to see a different light. But hey "To each its Own". ON a side note maybe we could spar and discuss some of things you dislike and maybe I could convince you to keep the game because really brah there a far worse games then this one. IDK I just see your giving the game up, and then later on wanting to buy it back lolxXxDrUnKeN_MaStAxXxComment
