I don't think it matters, as long as you rotate the stick a quarter circle in either direction after pressing one of left/right/up/down. I say "I don't think" because I don't have the game in front of me at the moment and I'm going off memory, and the controls are kind of second nature at this point. But I'm pretty sure I'm right. Note that not all positions have a submission for a given direction either.

Each position on the ground has different submissions available, so not all directions will do something for all positions.

Full guard (on the bottom) I believe has all four directions so it's a good place to practice. The easiest way to practice is to play a two player game with no one controlling the other fighter. Take your opponent down and explore all the positions and submissions available.

Hey SwedishTouch, let me help you out here..

First of all, check out this link to see the list of all submissions in the game, and how to do them - http://www.easports.com/ufc/news-upd...ks-submissions

Then go to Tutorial > Lesson 16 Attempting Submissions. You'll start out as Jones in the Guard (Submissive) position. If you look at the list above, it says that you can do 4 different types of submissions from this position - guillotine, armbar, omoplata, triangle. Now, to attempt a submission, first hold R1 then push the RS in the direction corresponding the submission you want to attempt - right for guillotine, left for armbar, down for omoplata, up for triangle. If you just hold the RS in the direction you choose (do not rotate yet), you will actually see Jones prepare to initiate the submission. There are different animations for the different submissions. Go ahead, try holding the RS in each of the 4 directions and see what Jones is doing. From there, rotate the RS a quarter circle in either direction to initiate the submission and start the mini-game. Of course in a live match you don't have to hold on to the RS in the direction for too long - just push and rotate the RS in one motion.

Take note that not all positions will have 4 submissions available to them. Some will have 2, some will only have 1. From half-guard submissive you only have twister and kimura, done by pushing the RS to the left or right respectively, then rotate. If you push up (or down) then rotate, nothing will happen.

Check out the list of submissions, try them out. Hope this helps!

Yep, if you have another controller available, much better to practice in a live match setting to explore all the different submissions from each position.

I tried playing the demo a few times and it was too overwhelming. I just don't think I would ever be able to learn the controls. I'll just stick to watching the UFC on tv.

I cant believe I havent asked this question:

Are there scorecards in the retail version if the fight goes to decision? Or does Buffer read the scorecards before announcing the decision?
