EA Sports UFC 2 Community Impressions

There doesnt seem to be a consensus at EA regarding what they should do with perm stamina. There is a group that wants it to be more realistic and a group that is satisfied where it is because its more appealing to casual fans. I dont think we are going to get a stamina slider or setting via a patch (I hope I'm wrong) but I'm hopeful that if there is a UFC 3, that there will be sliders. The next patch will likely come sometime in April and if the changes I've heard are implemented, I think it will do alot to help defend against the spamming of spinning and power strikes.

Yea because Gamechanger is spammer who like to spam body strike

There needs to be an option to choose a stamina mode at least. Will there be a patch to add the choice between metric and imperial units for height and weight? Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

I have no idea.

Thats not body spamming. He's mixing it up. In the first round, he was kinda predictable. He was going either straight or hook to the body followed up with a head kick. He was mainly doing that because his opponent was using head movement to avoid head strikes so his only choices are body strikes or leg kicks.

In the middle of the 2nd, you could argue that he was spamming the body a little but I dont see it. His opponent is leaning on the high block and not really blocking his body.

Also, his opponent has options against his body shots and uses them. He used the jumping knee and high kick several times which can counter someone relying heavy on body shots.

With that said, I'm all about realism and I've rarely see "high level" fighters solely rely on skills to win fights in an MMA game (most of the GameChangers rely on skill but not all of them). They always rely on spam or exploits to win if they have to because thats all they are looking to do...win.

Thats one of the many reasons I play offline. I'm not even close to being as skilled as most players but playing ranked online isnt enjoyable to me because I hate losing because of spam or exploits.

That entire fight was spam with extreme high volume strikes...

Standup should be more based on movement, footwork ,range. Now it could be but we need more damage from strike 10-20% more and increased stamina drain.

Im playing mostly online because playing vs cpu is without emotion and i have only one mission to kill every spammer i mean i really like the game vs good players

In division 5-6 they clinch and body spam all the time lol.

No it wasnt and I hate when people missuse the term "spam." Spamming is the repeated use of the same action without the use of strategy. In that video, Tweedy is successful because 1) he's using Conor who has a diverse moveset and is way overpowered and 2) He's good at mixing up his strikes.

In that video, Tweedy is using a 1-2 to the body alot but he's using high kicks, overhand rights, hooks to the head. He's mixing it up. Thats a strategy. There is nothing wrong with that. Its not the style that I would use but its beatable against most people. Tweedy spends HOURS playing this game a day so I wouldnt expect to beat him even if he used a different approach.

You missunderstand me i mean that fight was kinda unreal so many strikes and so many stamina its not his fault that to be that good you need to play like this.

Ea need to improve strike damage and stamina drain after that we can play more patient and more strategic.

Just had a fight go a full 25 minutes against Mike Meth. Dude broke my damn controller playing him. In the 5th round my block button kept getting stuck, so I was just trying to work around it without getting dropped. I guess that's the closest thing we'll get in this game to a fighter fighting through a broken hand or something lmao. Damn good fight.
