Yeah I can see the following used the most online:

Heavyweight

Dos Santos
Overeem
Roy Nelson

Light Heavyweight

Gustafsson
Jon Jones
Chuck Liddell
Dan Henderson

Middleweight

Anderson Silva
Dan Henderson
Robbie Lawler

Welterweight

GSP
Robbie Lawler
Johnny Hendricks

Lightweight

Bruce Lee
Anthony Pettis

Featherweight

Bruce Lee
Jose Aldo

Bantamweight

Bruce Lee

Flyweight and women division probably won't get much love online since nobody in those 2 divisions really have KO power that an average person can spam strikes with.

And like you said, I am pretty sure people will quit as soon as a fight goes to the ground. I mean hell people were doing that in the last 3 UFC games and their submission system weren't even hard.

thats not what they have posted on YouTube. Ill watch again to make sure i didnt misunderstand but they distinctly say R1 plus push RS in one of 4 directions. Then R1 plus rotate. Ill go watch again....

R1, RS in one of four directions, and the rotate to initiate. The direction initiates the attempt, the rotation completes the attempt. The attempt can be denial during the phase as well. A very similar mechanic to passing. Once the submission is initiated the mini game starts.

I just hope the dev team gives respect to stamina with online play. But the power straight in FNC was never resolved for online play. All they had to do was punish a guy for throwing multiple haymakers.

If thee is no consequence for spamming power punches/kicks, online will be a mess.

Sorry for being so dense. So if I hold R1 and push RS up I would then rotate from 12-3 or 12-9? Or am I picking a direction, releasing and then rotating? I tried holding R1 and pushing RS in various directions. I didnt see anything initiate. Not sure what im doing wrong.

well there sortof is. takedown.

For the life of me i cant grasp this submission thing, still have no clue what holding r1 and pushing rs in a direction does. when i hold r1 and rotate 9-12 or 3-12 seems to be only thing that initiates a submission. how i choose what submission i have no clue. but my patience has run out.

snap an app on the side. Or if you are on ps4 broadcast with the chat window enabled.
