EA Sports UFC Demo Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here (Xbox One, PS4)

[Benz87]

Everyone including myself wants to have hope the over-aggressiveness of the AI will not be an issue in the full version once the difficulty has been turned up a notch or two. With that being stated, previously in combat games whether it be MMA or boxing the tendency seems to be as difficulty goes up, so does the aggressiveness of the AI. On top of that, I just cant help but feel so many aspects of MMA are missing form this game. It's going to be very difficult to get over this emptiness feeling and really have this game draw me in.

I'm very concerned. I really had high optimism for this game with how much positive hype it had, and EA does have a history of being able to talk a good game without backing it up.

We can keep making the argument of it is only the demo, but there is a reason developer put a demo out, and it isn't to show you the flaws that will be corrected for the retail version of a title.

I noticed when attacking the leg(s), after some damage the cpu switches stance.

The thing about Buffer that EA can't control is his ability to do in studio what he does at am event. I even read too where Rogan wasn't available much for the game and even considered it silly.

L2 + Left Stick gives you a little bit of sway.

Just finished my first fight.

I think it will be a fun game to play. At least I hope.

It seems like they intentionally scaled Buffer back, and told him to do his best Jimmy Lennon Jr. impression while they recorded him. Buffer is a guy theat exudes excitement. Dude is pumped up when doing intros and really into it. They couldn't have recorded him from events because he is never that calm at events.

All of the announcing and voice work done in UFC 3 was pretty spot on. Rogan and Goldberg sound good in this game as well, but Buffer's intros are atrocious. EA Sports has a contract with the UFC, and therefore anyone who works for them and is a part of this game would have been required to put in whatever work they were assigned to. Even if Buffer didn't have time to do the voice work, EA could've easily and probably more cost effectively just cut audio from any UFC event and used it in the game and it STILL would've sounded better than it does in EA UFC. But that's just one part of my disappointment, and sadly there are many. I'm trying hard not to hate this game because just like Madden, it's the only UFC game we've got. Exclusive licenses are the true culprit with games not living up to hype. But, as I said, I will still buy it and I will still play it. I can only hope that my mind changes once I'm able to dive into career mode.

Facebook videos still can't be embedded right?

Here is my second fight. I did pretty terribly on this one, tried to mix it up a little in the striking game but not a little arcadey. Bet you can't even tell who the CPU and who I am based on how crappy I played.

I gotta go back and re-do the grappling tutorial.

I thought I was uploading in 1080p but maybe thats just twitch? Compression here doesn't do he visuals justice.

There are presentation pieces missing that could make things so much better. As an example, yes, you can't pounce a guy when there is a KO, but why make him just stand there? Have him pull away, insert the ref and have him wave the fight off. Have the appropriate people jump in the area and attend the guy, and the go to the other guy celebrating. And I just don't want to hear they can't. They claimed this generation was why the went with this game. Give the game some depth then.
