You talking about the glitch @16:57 of the video, or did something else happen later on that I should see?

Yeah my bad, I think that is where it happened. We kinda slide on the ground awkwardly and then I am up and Davis is kinda stuck in that ground position? Hard for me to explain.

They have to fix stamina in this game to get a more tactical feel behind it. You just aren't challenged enough to conserve your aggressiveness for the right time.

What I'm seeing is both fighters often having the same stamina drain throughout the fight. If someone wants to come out throwing hard, so be it, but this sport is cardio heavy and you should not be able to do these special moves without strong stamina consequence.

At first I thought the Tekken references were way over the top, but the more I see the more the game often looks like a 2D fighter.

Turn the Hud off. I think you guys are paying too much attention to the hud and its making stamina seem like a bigger issue than it is. I wish there was more permanent stamina but I've seen fighters like Hunt and Glover gas on accelerated clock. Using movement and making the CPU miss punches also has a effect on the CPU's stamina.

Turning off the Hud also increases the difficulty because you are forced to use visual cues like slower punches and movement to determine if you are dropping in stamina.

Giddyup. Not that im a good player but I love ground and pounding spammers. Is it true you can't see who your opponent picked in ranked. I assume if I play ww lw or fw its 90% Bruce Lee?

Unfortunately no you can't see who your opponent picks, yes I have seen Bruce Lee 3 times out of about 11 fights so far.

I assume the hud stays on in ranked?

I should fave specified for online. Turning the HUD off will increase the challenge, and my strategy is to throw less and dodge/parry.

I still want to see though a long term drain in stamina that would force someone to think twice about throwing so any strikes in a fight.

I get you. I completely agree about online.

Re: EA Sports UFC Available Now, Post Your Impressions

The HUD must be off. I turn mine off for all combat sports game. Which is why I never play online. A no HUD mode would bring real fans of the sport together. It would be nice if the UFC Gameplay Dev could speak on the possibilities of implementing something like that.

Have not went online yet but can tell you the roster is abysmal. I really cant think of too many intriguing matches and am gonna spend the rest of the day making cafs. I need someone for chuck to fight so im making randy and tito first.

Aren't there 60+ fighters in the game? I can work with that, no need to bring back any dinosaurs like Ortiz or Couture.

Re: EA Sports UFC Available Now, Post Your Impressions

Are movesets the same for each fighting style or are they different?
That's my main concern before I purchase the game or not.

I was victim of the first form of cheese, I got ptu up against the cage but their stamina was wiped. I kept bocking knees, but I could not transition out afterward. I was stuck with my back to the cage unable to move, Because they would just keep spamming body knees, the would come before the transition could even start. I was willing to eat a knee to move, and still no go. could not transition away from bruce lee knees with Rory. Dude was completely gassed, but I could not do anything as my transitions would not register.

Stamina does need working, also I think there should be a delay before you can attempt another transition on the ground if you are gassed, People are spamming transitions even while gassed to not take damage, even if they are blocked they don't care spam another one and you can't get hit. These 2 exploits could RUIN online play.

It's my first time playing an MMA game and it's going to take me a while to get used to the complicated controls. It seems like a great game though and I can see myself playing this a lot.

Every move is available for every CAF so its not governed by the fighting style.

Every licensed fighter has a different moveset but thats limited because there are so few moves in the game.
