EA Sports UFC 2 Community Impressions

Just witnessed CM Punk sweep Royce Gracie from full guard bottom to top mount. In the same fight, I also witnessed punk switch from a triangle to an armbar.

Some of the choices made in move sets are really baffling.

*THIS*

Big issue for me, i've been watching ufc since 100 and have maybe seen 2 or 3 sweeps from bottom to top mount. And it was only because of a submission attempt, that failed, then they ended up on top. It seems IRL, bottom fighters have 2 options, try and push the guy off you, or try to submit him. No one can just flip a competent fighter over like its represented in this game. Id be ok with it if it was Jacare, Gracie, or Maia doing these sweeps, but you're right, its guys known for boxing or in CM Punks case nothing, utilizing these very rare and difficult BJJ techniques.

I normally try to sit back and counter and the AI starts doing ridiculous 5 strike combos. Also having a hard time winning decisions even though I'm clearly winning fights.

As for my impressions, I really like the ultimate team mode, even though I don't seem to be able to win with any consistency in division two. Considering how long the game has been out, I guess I'm running across. 1. folks who don't have to work, can play the game all day and get coins to max their fighters out 2. People that are paying cash for the packs and maxing their fighters out I'm looking at rankings like, how in thee world do you have time to accumulate that many fights? Game still feels a bit stiff, but its growing on me. Only thing missing is a "franchise" type of career mode. A Madden/NBA2k in depth career mode.

Me and aholbert have definitely noticed this. Maybe it's just us but I find that the pro A.I is a lot more susceptible to getting K/O'd simply because they swing wildly and are way too aggressive without blocking. The Hard A.I on the other hand fights with a lot more strategy, mixing in high output and low output striking and solid ground game. Until there is a A.I patch I'll be sticking to hard for my offline fights

Good news guys. I was finally able to string together some winning streaks and even win a belt in division 4. Unfortunately with wins comes points and I've been promoted to division 5. I was absolutely smothered on the ground by Sonnen and Cormier my 1st two fights. I think I'm going to go play The Division now.

Fully regret buying this. Career mode/offline is repetitive, thin, and neglected. Online is spammed body kicks all day. Giving up on it already.

I don't understand the complaint of spammed body kicks. I ran about 10 online matches today and only a couple of people actually blocked the body and I mixed it up. If you're not going to block low, then it's nothing but body shots and leg kicks from me.

I dont get it either. I just stay on the outside and wait until they gas. Then its either an easy takedown or quick combos.
