EA Sports UFC Trailer, Fighting and Submission Details Revealed

It needs a GM mode too!

FO SHO!

I'd love to have to manage a stable of fighters - all with different personalities and static attributes.
It would be far more rewarding guiding an above average fighter to a title fight, or even winning a belt.
You have to make sure to match him (or her) against fighters who match well with their style.
Maybe you have a fighter that refuses to train and is always battling weight?
Perhaps you have a fighter who was recently cut from the UFC, so you have to start them over in the lower circuits and hopefully get them another UFC contract.

In my opinion, a GM (or Managers mode) was built for combat sports.

If it doesn't have a promoter mode I will be disappointed. My guess they will say, "We are on a three year plan we can't get everything into this year's offering."

Yep and that would be a legitimate excuse. My suggestion for everyone is to lower your expectations. Exhibition/Online/Career mode are automatic. Anything else is extra. Building this game from the ground up may not allow EA the time to do things like a GM mode or even Event mode (which I love in THQ's UFC games.

In my opinion, the game would be so boring if it only had exhibition mode, career, and online. It NEEDS GM mode.

I completely agree. The #1 item on my wishlist for not only this game, but even for all games combined would be a MyGm mode for EA UFC.

I'm just not into single player modes, like My Player or Road to the Show. I'm an Association/Franchise guy and for me a GM mode is a no-brainer.

It doesn't even really have to be that deep because the user should be making up cards and basically all the game has to do is keep track of everything. I've written in detail about this in the past, so I'll save it for now. I just really hope that this is added, if not this year then in the future.

My expectations are low when it comes to a MyGm mode, heck as soon as the full fighter list is revealed I'm going to get to work on updated my spreadsheets.

I would be really disappointed if Event Mode isn't in, but I guess it's not the end of the world.

We need Event Mode at the bare minimum. That was one of my favourite things to do against a friend, pick 8 fighters each and see who can come out on top over the duration of a pay-per-view.

I'm loving what I'm seeing so far. As long as the parry system isn't like Fight Night, I'll be happy.

I want it to be in the game. Event mode is probably the mode I've used the most in any game in the last 2 yrs. I just have a feeling that it wont be in there.

Re: EA Sports UFC Trailer, Fighting and Submission Details Revealed

When I all comes down to it the modes don't matter. If they get the gameplay right then we will want more modes and buy the next game. if the gameplay is wrong...it wont matter what modes are included it will be a dud.


for me if they can make gameplay good and online connections solid...I will be happy with almost whatever they put out

Just busting your balls.
I think I can speak for most everyone when I say that we're all just awaiting the next tidbit of news to drop... And just because we're talking about modes doesn't mean that we don't care about gameplay. Gameplay will always be first and foremost, but that doesn't mean other aspects of the game aren't important as well.

Re: EA Sports UFC Trailer, Fighting and Submission Details Revealed

After seeing this trailer, my excitement has significantly tapered off. Yes, I'm going to hear it from those that say you can't really give much weight to trailers, small clips, etc.

Small gameplay footage: @1:35 mark onward, striking has that EA signature robotic movement. Even the grappling looks "tame" with no force. I guess the word I'm looking for is "lifeless" so to speak. Yes, it's in slow motion but you can sort of extrapolate what might happen during live gameplay. Secondly, I'm hoping the entrances has more dynamic camera angles. I was hoping the PS4/XB1 could allow developers to inject more soul/life into these characters.

Personally, disappointed. Now, the waiting game for a more definitive impression.

Re: EA Sports UFC Trailer, Fighting and Submission Details Revealed

I'll be pretty surprised if there is no event mode, even if it's a really basic one. It's just a series of exhibition fights in a row in the same arena with a little extra presentation.
