I played a match this morning against the CPU and I really like the changes. The aggressiveness is much more realistic, and also it was a great idea to allow kicks to be caught when guys are gassed. It really eliminates the endless strings of head kicks that I would always see before. The funny thing is, making the CPU less aggressive actually increases the difficulty in my opinion, because there are so many less chances to parry and counter, which is where the most damaging strikes come.

I'm anxious to get home this afternoon and play some more, good job EA!

That's interesting cause I'm on pro. I test some fights out later with some of the people you've fought see if there is any difference. Cheers for the stats!

I only fought one fight last night, a five rounder with Matt Brown (me) vs. Maia. Maia averaged about the same as Carmount did for you. IIRC in Round Five her threw 61 strikes and that as the only time he broke 60.

I'm a very conservative fighter and I found myself being the aggressor and initiating first most of the fight. I almost have to re-learn how to play because I was so used to the AI "out pointing" me solely on output alone.

I have to say even though I only played one fight it really got me excited, not only about the game, but the direction of this series. To see all of these significant post release patches is just awesome. Plus, it's going to make the next game that much better because they have a better foundation to build on.

I can't wait to see more from this team!

I really wish there was a way to patch in a GM Mode. (ex: Universe Mode in WWE series)

Guess I'll continue to do my own and keep stats myself.

# 65 RoyalBoyle78 @ 08/27/14 10:29 AM

I must of missed this, cant wait to download it later.

# 66 CYST2000 @ 08/27/14 12:13 PM

Enjoying the patch. Just a possible heads up. When playing on the ps4 post patch, I've noticed that the replays are choppy. Everything else is great. Keep it up.

# 67 Gotmadskillzson @ 08/27/14 12:25 PM

One thing I noticed post patch is that the CPU, regardless of fighter is a blocking, swaying and parrying machine now on the higher difficulties. I was playing on Hard:

Maia, Stipo, Woodley were blocking, parrying and swaying my combos like they were Floyd Mayweather.

I managed to get Maia rocked up against the cage with Robbie Lawler, Maia while rocked went on to sway and parry my next 15 punches while his back was up against the cage. I was thinking wow, is this Maia or Floyd Mayweather ?

I noticed all fighters I fought against, which was about 8 of them last night, all did the same thing. So now a lot more of my fights are going the distance.

# 68 davidbix @ 08/27/14 01:51 PM

Not sure if this is the domain of either dev who posts here, but why is Robbie Lawler so underpowered in the game and will that be fixed? He's way too slow with not nearly enough KO power. Nothing like how he's looked in his real life fights since returning to the UFC.

# 69 EccentricMeat @ 08/27/14 02:15 PM

This patch looks excellent! I only have two questions:

I know this is unlikely, but is there any way that SLIDERS can be patched into the game? I'm talking in-depth sliders like the NBA 2k series and even FIFA, where almost all aspects of gameplay can be edited (attributes, fighter tendencies, etc.).

And also, could the ability to edit each individual fighters' attributes also be patched into the game? The kind of roster editing you would see in Madden, for example? These two additions would be HUGE for the offline crowd!

# 70 2_headedmonster @ 08/27/14 03:25 PM

Loving this update, but i need a spike in power. im taking and landing too many power shots with not enough consequence. i could see of they were grazing shots, but these are FLUSH.

Im not necessarily asking for flash k.o results, but more (short) health events that dont lead to you getting pummeled, but backing up and regrouping in recognition of getting clocked. Fn champion had something like this, your energy would flash and you'd be momentarily buzzed, but your energy wouldn't drop like a drastic buzz.

or patch in sliders

Edit fighter would be amazing. Also, fixing things in the CAF/GameFace would also be awesome.

Online is still unplayable, so kinda for not unfortunately.

# 73 The JareBear @ 08/27/14 08:04 PM

EA UFC Devs are doing a great, great job.

This patch makes me want to take a fighter through career mode in every weight class now.

I gave the game a six when it came out. The post release support has been incredible, and I probably would give it an 8 now, very good especially for first year.

Glad I went digital so I kept the game

Thanks, that's much appreciated. A jump from 6 to 8 means a lot.

And we're not done yet...

Sorry, no idea. I've read some complaints on the forums but I'm completely out of the loop on it. No idea if it's us or something else.

# 78 countryboy @ 08/27/14 08:39 PM

Is it possible to patch in new modes? EX: GM Mode where I play the role of Dana White

# 79 tha_show256 @ 08/27/14 09:21 PM

I play online exclusively (ps4) and have 0 issues...there is some lag here and there, but for the most part my experience online is AWESOME! Could be your settings or ISP.

# 80 tha_show256 @ 08/27/14 09:23 PM

Kudos to the developers for all there hard work! I love the patch, I'm having a hard time enjoying Madden, because I LOVE this game! Madden is a beast this year for those don't know btw...
