Nice to see the button mashers being exposed.

Adapt and overcome.

I agree if its do to online cheaters but I only play offline .
I do enjoy the new system almost revoulutionary like EA NHL they really implemented it near perfect IMO.
Do you really believe most complaints are from button mashing cheaters as I prefer buttons in all other sports games ? I mean if I had to use a stick for Baseball or hoops I wouldnt play them .....
Options are a good thing at least offline.
thanks

Yea I like the new control scheme but don't understand EASPORTS NOT GIVING THE PAYING CUSTOMER OPTIONS THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN AVAILABLE...and then let people only play with the new controls online to prevent turbo controllers, etc. that would be ideal from a game company. I don't really care either way nor am in favor of the button controls or even played the old FN's. I have read people with cerebal palsy can't play, to people complaining about breaking/wearing out their new $60 dollar controllers (hilarious I know!). Is it really a big deal to give these options to the consumer and have whatever online play as well.

I can tell you from the UFC game that lag and possible turbo controllers are the only real faults in gameplay. Despite what you hear everything has a counter and a strategy involved. The actual online setup is a complete failure in the THQ game however. People can quit without consequence which makes the ranked matches worthless after attaining a certain level (most everyone seems to quit to protect their precious ranking).

It seems with more damage from all punches and less stamina, and 12 rounds will be enough to provide some tactical battles and the need to clinch and certainly block and weave to counter stuff, etc.

I hope sliders are available online whether ranked or not which would allow the OSports community to run a proper sim league.
Give people their options for offline/even online and have the ranked matches with the new scheme to tighten up the cheating/gameplay. It should be pretty good online I hope.

I agree with you... If I had to use the stick to swing the bat in MLB 09 on my ps3, I wouldn't play it. If I had to use the right stick to shoot in 2k9 for every shot, I prolly wouldn't play it. The buttons are on the controller for a reason. They are supposed to be used more than the sticks. I can honestly care less whether they bring the buttons back or not now. I know I won't be buying the game if its not an option. My gripe is just how EA could possibly live with losing hundreds of thousands of dollars in sales from not implenting the button option. At least for offline use. Just plain stupid.

Hi Trinity ,
Nice to see you around again was gonna pm you .
I really dislike the stick and even in NHL09 I use the combo one where I can do both cause i hate to pass with it.
My only real beef with the stick in FNR4 is wear and tear on the controller and my sore thumbs but after playing the demo a million times im learning to box more then just throwing a quanity punches , what do you think ? I mean actually weaving , ducking ect .
So I can see why EA did this but IMO they should at least have buttons for offline gamers .
