Re: EA Sports UFC Demo Available Now For Xbox One, Soon For PS4

The over agression from the cpu is a bit of a turn off. But it does make them easier to counter. Maybe on higher difficulties, they will counter more.

Side control is going to be a super dominant position, it seems you can only escape 1 way, so it will be very easy to hold someone in side control.

Submissions seem easier to pull of from more dominant positions. I finished the inverted triangle from side control a few times, but failed to finish the triangle from guard, or the kimura from half guard. It definitely took longer to get prompts to advance in those positions.

Early counter do appear to be in. A lot of the times I rocked or KO'd a guy it seems I landed an uppercut or an overhand as they were trying to connect.

The game all hangs on one fighter for me.....Machida.

When I get the game, he is the first fighter I will fight. If he is stepping forward constantly and aggressive I will flame Hayes and his team on every forum and social media site I can access.

The one thing that keeps me calm is the Foxsports.com report where the author while playing the full game stated that he had a hard time hitting Aldo with Mendes because of Aldo's movement. I'm hoping that the demo is tuned agreessive because thats what casual fans like.

One thing I'm seeing is that people who say "I'm not a big MMA fan" love the demo. People who are big MMA fans have issues with it.

Sure seems way easier to win with Jones or at least for me it does

Just got my 1st win in 6 tries. Took Gus down and pounded him out.

Sure there are some things that could be improved on but game seems fun and enjoying the demo quite a bit. More than I can say for Watch Dogs....still getting the NAT connection errors. Just about done with that game. smh

I can't watch this with out being turned off completely. If the CPU portion plays like this then I will save my money. It will not be enjoyable to have every fight against the CPU be this spam fest.

Online I can't speak for but the way this looks is BAD to me

Same goes for about every game. People who are hardcore Ncaa/Madden fans see the flaws more than the ones who aren't

Re: EA Sports UFC Demo Available Now For Xbox One, Soon For PS4

I tried the demo on XB1 last night and was disappointed. Something just seems a bit "off" about it. There were times when I would throw a punch or combo and it would wait to actually pull the moves off (animation lag?). Also, I remember doing one match and tried to go for a takedown and it took about 10 times for the game to actually pull the move off because the fighter just stood there like I wasn't pressing anything.

I hope this is just a case of "it's just a demo" but right now I'm not impressed. I'll try the demo on PS4 later to see if that makes any difference on how I feel since I was going to get the game on that system.

Just watched the video and it doesnt look that bad to me. Why? Because the guy controlling Jones is barely moving around and is willing to trade with Gus. Like I said before if you want to stand and trade with the CPU, the CPU will oblige in the demo.

What most people want to do is exactly that.

Re: EA Sports UFC Demo Available Now For Xbox One, Soon For PS4

In the KO animation that some people have been talking about, is it possible to do the "Dive Punch Modifier (L2/LT)" to finish off an opponent, or can you not move at all? I haven't had the chance to play the demo yet, but saw this control in the Control Map that was just posted to the forums.

Re: EA Sports UFC Demo Available Now For Xbox One, Soon For PS4

i think the cpu is aggressive because the difficulty is easy and thats the only option there is. im sure on the higher difficulties the cpu will fight alot smarter. at least i hope so anyway. but if u want to stand and bang with the easy cpu it will definitely throw with u but if u fight smart then the cpu isnt much of a challenge. wish they wouldve put the other difficulties in

Re: EA Sports UFC Demo Available Now For Xbox One, Soon For PS4

Wow the videos have really turned me off where I might even pass on it entirely. The computer lack of a pace really turns me off. This is the main reason I was turned off my facing the CPU in UFC 3 so if that element remains then I know I'll pass.

Having the CPU constantly push forward throwing nonstop is truly a game breaker for me.

ya i am.seeing the same so far. HOPEFULLY its just the easy level AI in the demo...but that is just probably wishful thinking. All videos I have seen have been street fighter UFC, even cpu/cpu was horrific in this regard.

a chin, stamina and punch output slider would probably have fixed this pretty easily.

There is ZERO "down time". It is literally throwing the entire time then the snap of 3 or 4 head kicks in a row coming out at insane speeds just turn me off. The CPU is literally pressing forward the entire time and throwing everything PLUS around 15 to 20 "highlight" moves per round. Just looks dumb to me
