Re: #patchspoilers 1.07

They do talk to the devs directly. Which is likely why you don't see them post as much. Besides the fact that people blame them as well like the devs. I have questioned some of the decisions myself. Striking being one of them.

Who blame GCs??
Who blame devs??

I personally blame devs only for _ignoring_ our requests again and again. This very frustrate to spend so much time on creating issues threads (w how to fix) and did not recieve any answer so many issue threads w/o any response.

Some times i think to go in read only "mode" and dont knock on the closed door - because it is really frustrating.

Re: #patchspoilers 1.07

Well I don't think I've fought Hunter. But I remember fighting MTS2 3 times in live events. One of the fights where a clinch knee stunned him and I finished him with a combo. He complained about it afterwards saying it was OP but in reality I have no problems getting finished in the clinch. Same for Zombie, these are players that are barely in the top 100 and that don't play the game that much.

Im on Xbox.

I could care less about the clinch changes. If someone clinches me Im fine with it because I can get it to the ground. If not, thats fine too, I'll shoot a single leg.

I think the SC entries were a bit too unpunishable, especially for repeated attempts. So maybe this will balance it out some. But as for the knee nerf in thai, I dont think it was needed. Im impartial to the punches no longer interupting transitions in SC.

In short, Im not for or against the changes. But I could see how a striker would become very irritated by someone just spamming the Single Collar entry.

The clinch can be a chess match. That is what was cool about it.

... Yep, 1 transition and 1 strike away from "check mate". Bobby Fischer in the house!

Re: #patchspoilers 1.07

I dont remember MTS posts, very few posts from Rommel, and only Zhunter make some posts.
Also i dont see posts from them about how to CHANGE the current game, their wish lists. I see guides, tutorials but not issues and how to fix.

We need more Game _CHANGERS_ (not game trainers), which can (and will) to talk with devs directly about game's problems /issues and how to fix!
Because it seems that devs are repeating the same errors over and over (it looks like they dont know enough what and how we need).

Sugata, GCers cannot share what or how we want things changed, because if those things are acted upon, we could potentially be breaking NDA by posting it publicly. Rest assured the large majority of the GCers read the forum topics here. That doesnt mean each topic listed will be fixed though.

True. There is also a fine line between going for the clinch over and over again every opportunity they get and just going for it at opportune times. When someone has Robbie lawler and can throw a six piece body jab followed by a power shot and get a knockdown I'd like to grab them and slow them down. I also sometimes come out and grapple up immediately to get a feel for my opponents skill. The clinch game is no worse then the leg kick combo that almost every compotent player in the game throws.

Re: #patchspoilers 1.07

- Increased counter window after denied clinch attempt #patchspoilers

- Added counter damage bonus after denied clinch attempt #patchspoilers

- Fixed bug so you can now deny a clinch attempt during the follow through of your strike #patchspoilers



These three sound great to me. I fought someone last night who would attempt clinches over and over. I'd deny a clinch, land a body kick, but then he'd go for another clinch and it wouldn't allow me to block it despite landing a flush kick to his body first.

Looks good so far.

Made this video thinking of the changes.

I really think it will punish failed clinch attempts the most. Likely going to see health events from counters due to the stamina drain and counter doing more damage. Could be a Trojan horse. We will have to see. If these counters do cause health events each time, you will find people not using the clinch (worst case scenario since the clinch becomes ineffective like last game), and using the clinch against you in return.

We need more Game _CHANGERS_ (not game trainers), which can (and will) to talk with devs directly about game's problems /issues and how to fix!
Because it seems that devs are repeating the same errors over and over (it looks like they dont know enough what and how we need).

Lets play a game:

Before I play this game, let me make one thing clear. THIS IS NOT BASED ON FACT OR ANYTHING THE DEVS HAVE TOLD ME.

So lets say you are appointed a gamechanger. Lets say you have great ideas for how to change something like the combo modifier. You can explain it from the technical side and in your opinion, the fix is relatively easy.

So you pitch it to the devs and their response is:

That fix (that you think is easy) would cost a significant amount of money and time to fix for UFC 2. Especially given that they may have started working on a new game, they dont plan to fix it until next game.

or

That while people on the forums hate the combo modifier, they've determined from surveys and social media that most people like the combo modifier.

or

That a higher up at EA likes the combo modifier and thinks it should remain.

WHAT WOULD BE YOUR RESPONSE?

There is alot more to being a gamechanger than just identifying an issue and proposing how to fix it. Alot more things to take into consideration other than you wanting an issue to be fixed.


None of these are the reasons for why the combo modifier is in place. But they could be reasons for why features that people hate on the forums remain in the game.

The reason why you dont likely see the Gamechangers posting with idea threads is because they can take their input directly to the devs. They dont need to post in the forums first to take their idea or issues to the devs.

I dont know how many times I can tell you this. The devs read the forums. They have read your threads. They are aware of the issues in the game that have been posted about.

Just because you think a fix is easy....doesnt mean its actually easy. Just because something you want doesnt get fixed doesnt mean the devs are "ignoring" you.


It just means that they have a short amount of time and manpower (right now) and have to prioritize fixes. The majority were complaining about clinch issues. Only you (and a few others) were complaining about the color of the ps4 light or a speed bonus from sway. So....the devs are going to look are going to give priority to the issues that THE MAJORITY cares about.

If I was a game changer and ea game me those reasons for modifier I'd ask to take it up the chain of comment, all the way to the top. I suspect its Scott.

Re: #patchspoilers 1.07

Seriously?

I suspect some of you think the GCs have more power or a bigger voice than they actually do.
