I'm not 100% sure, but I think the credit for the move set changes goes to Bassi.

I have a feeling he combed the threads here and did what he could.

Seems Haz is happy about this patch. Also I have to say this patch was a pretty good one. It's was a under the radar patch that had some good stuff in it. This is for the whole EA team...
Good Job!

GPD can you find out what AI fixes made it into this patch please and post it when ever you can.

After all of these patches I'm finally going to start my career mode with a UFC fighter.

for sure, you guys listen to us a lot, I've seen a dozen or more direct changes to the game since Beta that came directly from community --- thanks for listening; I think it's paying off for everyone !!

I'm really interested in checking out some of the moveset changes

He also has Crucifix!

I had a Krylov caf actually, but this is just awesome. Very very well done fighter. Krylov is a beast in this game!

Thanks again Devs!! Best post-launch Dev support i've ever seen in my life.

I'm really glad they took away RDA's disgusting super man punch and replaced it with a way more appropriate punch, i which they would do that with almost all fighters ( MAX HOLLOWAY) but whatever, I guess I just won't use them.

I also very happy that they basically overhauled Yair Rodriguez and gave him a very true to life move set. Thank you Devs for reaching out to the community to make this game better and I look forward to talking to you guys when the EA UFC 3 Hype Train arrives

Very excited to see how this plays out. Should slow down some of the dancing by these boys online.

Also Barao is really good at FW. This division is tons of fun to play now, it has a nice mix of different types of fighters.

Skynet is online now...

What were some of the AI changes for this patch? and did the Max Holloway stand and bang taunt make it in for the last patch?

A lot of guys side step a ton. That's all I"m saying. Will be nice to punish them even more when you connect.

Question for the dev: does this apply to backward dashes as well? I caught a Cerrone online a second a go with a kick mid-dash and got a health event and finish. Not sure if it was just coincidental or part of the patch.

Jake Matthews? Seriously how do fighters get chosen to be added? Matthews isn't even top 25 in the lightweight division. A guy like Francisco Trinaldo who's on a 7 fight win streak over tough competition, 14 fights in the UFC. Notable wins over Felder, Mederios, Laprise, Pearson, Parke, Silva yet Matthews gets added. WTF? Do you guys check the rankings or go by twitter followers, cause real killers don't twitter. The patches may be over but a content update or two would be nice. Show Santiago Ponzinibbio some love too.

I believe the UFC has a pretty big say in the choice.

Also, the choice is made well in advance of the patch, so there's some element of trying to predict the future involved, which doesn't always pan out.

At first I thought the lunge nerf wasn't that bad. After all, stepping right into a strike should do more damage. BUT, since they haven't touched the stupid combo multiplier, the even stupider jab straight to the body nor have they upped sway counter damage OR increased the permanent stamina drain on throwing hundreds of 1-2s, I think just nerfing defense like this is a very bad thing

Martialmind says the exact same thing in his video, you're forced to go toe to toe with characters if they have better stats than you, you can't reliable damage them, and now you can't even evade them very well anymore
