Re: EA Sports UFC Available Now, Post Your Impressions

I'm installing the game on Xbox One as I type this!! I'm so pumped for this!!! Quick question can you use CAF's or Career Mode fighters online?

Is there a way to not get my face bloodied? Maybe im just eating a lot of face shots but it seems i always end up with a bloody face. Even in my fight against Valasquez and that was a seemingly slow paced fight

This is correct.

The only way is to not get hit in the face.

If we only got one thing 100% sim, this would be it

Kills online for me. Thats idiotic. Can u see their record and dnf% prior to playing?

Yeah that needs to be changed. FIFA seemed to get that part right so it's surprising if disconnectors aren't being punished here.

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.

Thanks for the info man.

Re: EA Sports UFC Available Now, Post Your Impressions

Thanks for that info I appreciate that. I'm just going to mess around in the career mode for a bit...let me just say that I'm kinda let down you can't make a woman fighter.....why even have them in the game to use in play now if that's the ONLY thing you can do with them? Baffles me. Also they don't have Baltimore,MD which is me just nitpicking but I guess Byron "Lights Out" Reed is from Camp Springs, MD this time around.

Re: EA Sports UFC Available Now, Post Your Impressions

I just wanted to point out something that I really like and applaud the development group for.

The sound and overall ambience.

One pet peeve of mine that killed immersion for me in the past was that if you had a Brazilian fighter his corner always shouted to him in English. Finally, this game has the corner men shouting instructions in Portuguese.

Another thing I really like is how the Career Mode sound is. I only have had a chance to have one fight, but I loved the whole TUF atmosphere, with the teammates shouting, etc. It really sounds like that was taking directly from the show and I appreciate that you guys have added real sound for this game.

I also like the oohs and ahhs during the replays between rounds.

The only negatives I have about the sound is Goldie and Rogan don't sound very natural. Seems they just ripped the excited utterances, which is fine. But, when they happen non-stop they kind of lose their power.

I'm really trying to enjoy the game, but the controls being so wonky is off putting.

Re: EA Sports UFC Available Now, Post Your Impressions

If a stamina/AI patch comes out I will be pretty satisfied with this game as a 1st effort.

Specially tuning the stamina to be adjusted to accelerated clock or normal clock to the users preference.

It has some odd animations at times, but I can overlook that. I just want the stamina and overaggressive AI brought into the realms of normalcy.

Re: EA Sports UFC Available Now, Post Your Impressions

Its very annoying that even on EASY the AI is just so aggressive. It really ruins the experience... I do NOT want to go to beginner to fight but is the AI less aggressive? I just think if their not on EASY then why would they be on BEGINNER?

OFF TOPIC QUESTION - How do I show my post count under my name?

Re: EA Sports UFC Available Now, Post Your Impressions

The pace is much better (slower) than the demo.

CPU AI is a bit more patient even on Easy.

I like the differentiation in skills in fighters. Really sets them apart for me.

Having a lot of fun. Wins are very gratifying.

Still struggling with my submission defense and the CPU stops my takedowns way too often for my liking.

Early impressions: 7.5/10

Re: EA Sports UFC Available Now, Post Your Impressions

Haven't received my copy yet but damn not getting the win if someone quits on you in an online match really is a big deal.

Hate being the doom and gloom merchant, but that has to be addressed. Don't know how you could let it go out like that, you got to know that is a problem.

I personally liked when FIFA had that short grace period early in a match where you could quit with no punishment, in the event a game was too laggy (of course it did get abused if you scored on somebody very early) but that period didn't need to be very long and after that if somebody quit on you, you'd get that win. That's vital for good online competition.

Re: EA Sports UFC Available Now, Post Your Impressions

Haven't played online yet and still trying to master the controls but I wrote them all down on paper. I really have no complaints other than the 10 CAF. Of course I've only been playing a few hrs.
