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

[Swamp Swagger]

I'm getting decent at the ground game and submissions. Only grip about subs is I can get them from the very start of the match

All I have to do is let me opponent drain his stamina then I take him down then the sub is cake. Probably because it's on easy though and a real opponent will be much tougher

I may have missed this but can anyone confirm that online is 5 rounds?

There are three kinds of fights in Fight Now:

-3 round
-5 round
-championship

The graphics including the damage throughout the fight and the fighter renderings. The submission battles feel organic and when you pull one off it is very rewarding. But what I think is going to ultimately ruin this game is the complicated controls and the frequent cart wheeling kicks and risky maneuvers. THQ had it right on the prior installments by separating the punches and kicks by using a modifier for kicks and punches being standard fave buttons. This delegates the variety of strikes leading to more fluid combos. I can't count how many times in the game I would land a good one two combo to just have my fighter throw a random and pointless head kick to finish it off. These need to be separated and have there own individual functions. Throwing combos should be easy and fluid and the gamer should have more control over the types of strikes they throw. Which leads me to my next point. How many times have you seen someone throw a cart wheel kick 5 times in a real mma fight?!?! These are way to easy to pull off in the game and lead to a more gamey and arcade like game experience. You may see an Anthony Pettis type maneuver like this once in 150 fights. So my question is why is it so easy to act like a circus clown but putting consistent punching combos takes way more concentration. Transitions feel about right. Keeping it to a left right system makes it feel like more of a battle then THQ's versions. In prior installments I was able to just hold down on the right stick to keep an opponent in a bad position. I also like how dangerous punches are harder to pull off when you have your opponent on his back. In prior installments I was able to easily pull off 3 to 4 significant strikes and finish the fight quickly writhing seconds of getting my opponent on the ground. I will be getting this game no matter what because I am a huge ufc fan, but I can't help but feeling unimpressed overall.

Top two face buttons are punches and bottom two face buttons are kicks.

Rogan talks a little about the game, and I mean he literally just references how good the graphics are, in his new latest podcast around the 1 hour 32 minute mark. He just talks about putting in hours doing the commentary and pretending he was watching real fights. They show him a trailer and he mentions "that's a good looking guillotine" again referencing the graphics. I laughed a little when he said "guys definitely can take way more head kicks than in real life."

Just thought it was cool that he mentioned the game.
