Clinch Fake Takedown Exploit

[Find_the_Door]

Why are my opponents able to shoot and give up on the takedown to get out of the clinch? You can't even attempt the submission reversal as it doesn't allow you to get it they just get a clean break out of the clinch.

Not only that but you also can't even get the takedown reversal animation either - just a clean break.


I understand that EA and the UFC want this game to remain standing at all times (that's apparent). This is just ridiculous though.

People also do this during rocks (more risky) but they are able to avoid nearly every punch except the uppercut by doing this.

I started to notice this happening a lot a few days ago. Everyone in ranked is starting to do this the minute you put them into the clinch. All there doing is faking the single leg takedown then getting out of the clinch with ease.

I have been doing this to get out of the clinch since UFC 2.

It's not ideal but it is a good way to get out from clinch spammers if you miss the denial.

I will say that you can deny and or reverse but the denial almost has to be put in pre-emptivley.

Clinch spammers? Lol

You can't spam the clinch in this game - heck you can rarely get it.

This is an exploit and needs fixed.

this has been in since ea ufc 2, but im not sure how they would fix it, maybe force them into a sprawl position?

Sprawl, allow me to do the submission reversal or takedown reversal.

Extremely easy fix

I dunno why you're making out like the grappling is underpowered in this game. I haven't noticed that myself. A lot of the top guys grapple.

What? I'm talking about the clinch and my opponent using a blatant exploit to escape it.

Grappling is nearly a non-existent aspect of this game as it stands.
