EA Sports UFC Gameplay Video - Jose Aldo vs. Anthony Pettis

[JKSportsGamer1984]

As great as this game looks, I'm disappointed that it only runs at 30 fps. To me 1080p + 60 fps should be the standard for all Next Gen games. Those saying the game looks a little choppy is because it's only 30 fps. That said, the game does look visually impressive & other than the frame rate I can't find too many negatives. Very impressed with the foot planting & animations. I didn't notice any player clipping/morphing which is astonishing considering how much contact is going on. Presentation looks awesome as well. Good job EA!

Initial response to this footage is that it looks great graphically, movements look natural, game play seems decent but can't really judge gameplay truly until I get my hands on it. All in All looks pretty impressive for you know... an EA sports game.

I just have to add one more thing in looking at the video again... choppy movement you all keep stating??? Im just not seeing it, maybe your streamin has a delay or something but I just don't see it. The movement is smooth and one of the best I've seen in a fighting game.

Next I just wanted to add the blocking animations .... BEAUTIFUL!!

ok...thats good enough for me. The slam by aldo felt a bit unrealistic...but everything else was sick. All i am praying for now is that there is not any cheap tactics (look at all of you punch flickers out there) and online play is solid

Maybe choppy isn't the right word. I guess what bothers me a bit (and again, I'm day one buying so it isn't nearly a deal breaker) is that since most of the motions seem so natural and like they have weight behind them, the few that don't seem really out of place. Kind of an uncanny valley situation. The two big ones that stood out were the escape to standing from side control, and the missed cartwheel kick.

I'll look at those two moments again when I get home and see if I'm being overly critical.

A little disappointed in the commentary to be honest. Very minimal, and not specific enough. UFC 3 would go into detail about the fighters past fights, that was totally left out.

Gameplay seemed good though. I especially like the way Aldo was feinting.

HELL YEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm now super excited for some online multiplayer! EA MMA 2.0 is fine by me

A little thing I noticed on another watch through of this video, is that the escape from side control actually seems to have 2 transitions from Pettis. The first seems to be a movement to lay on his right side, then explodes away from Aldo with the second transition. Not sure how "realistic" this escape is since I don't train MMA (in regards to the speed of the transitions and effectiveness), but it did at least seem like there wasn't just one transition to go from side control to standing from the bottom.
