The only time you would get a KO is when you're absolutely outclassing your opponent, which is realistic.

A fight going the distance is heavily dependent on both fighters conserving their stamina.

Of course you can bank stamina and still get your head rocked enough to severely dent your health bar.

I've definitely had fights go to distance...some I won and some I lost. Like dude said it depends on how the two fighters. Great mixture for me.

THIS^^

I have to give EA credit for what I hope is their finally tuner set. It would be too risky to expect anything better.

Normally i wouldn't contaminate OS with anything from the EA forums here but this video needs to be posted...



The AI in that video is unbelievably broken...

don't even get me started on the scoring...10-8 round on 1 punch landed...lol

I want to know what offline players have to say about the new gameplay tweaks...

Is it as horrific as that video indicates?

If they would have made sure the offline was back up to par I would pick up again today. To bad they let that part of the single player experience wilt in the heat.

I am very happy some of you guys are enjoying the game again.

Take care and see you guys when the next edition comes out.

I am going to enjoy the mess out of it for another week until my fav game hits the shelf at 12:01 Tuesday morning. Then it will collect some dust and come out every now and then lol..

I love his Mercedes analogy lol. Think how many people would be happier if we had the option to choose which update we wanted to use, at least for offline gameplay. If you think outside the context of console gaming, it's kinda ludicrous that we DON'T have that option. At least with PC gaming you can uninstall and reinstall the patch of your choice...

Edit: ...and yes, offline is horrifically flawed. The punch output slider is essentially there as a placebo, as it does nothing. Unless you tweak the hell out of each boxer's AI tendencies, it's atrocious.

EA Sports is done.
