I'm thinking it's the fighters.

Last year no one could sub either because it was Liddell who has great D and bad O in subs.

I'm sure once the game itself comes out, we'll see players with poorer defense being subbed more easily.

Definitely true but I miss being able to stay in someones guard and pick my shots. I understand the need to get lay-and-pray out of the game but the longest I've had someone on the ground without advancing is like 10-15 seconds.

While I agree the new style is better for the game overall I am going to miss being able to tito ortiz people in guard with elbows, etc.

advance position or throw bombs I guess

It could be the fighters but this method seems to work with anyone on beginner, I just tapped Shogun out with Rampage in one round with a kimura using the above method.

I understand what you guys are saying. As I said before, I'm completely fine with the fact that successful transitions are much more frequent and aren't automatically blocked countless times. I love it as a matter of fact.

What I'm trying to say is leave everything the way it is, but forget about auto transition blocking. That way, people who loved to abuse the transition blocking won't be able to sit in one position and land single shot after single shot, but at the same time, you should still be wary of transitions. Make sense?

It will still be to the same effect, but that way you can steal a transition if you time it right. At the same time it will still make the game look awkward. People will still be worried about blocking transitions and yet again just throw 1 punch and block, but this time it won't be as effective. There would be no real incentive in trying to get the full mount other than to throw in 1-2 bombs. It takes time to reach the full mount and if you can only get the chance to throw a punch or two then what's the point of taking it to the ground?

Okay my final post on the submission subject. Just submitted Shogun on expert with Machida following the wear down + suplex or slam followed by instant submission.

When someone is mounted and is getting hit, they often give up their back after a few hard shots which is what happens in this game. They either pull their opponent's head down or give up their back. I hope in next year's game, they'll have a way to get a higher mount or a higher guard. Like, maybe fighters who don't really have a submission game can try to use the shine to get a high mount that's impossible to get out of.

I don't know. It's probably gonna grow on me. Nothing I can do but play the game and win Thunderstruck belts.

Though I still wanna know why you have the option to manually transition block.
