I've ran about 50 test to try and find out how it picks a winner but it really is luck of the draw. Sent from my iPad using Operation Sports

I thought this too but the devs confirmed that this isnt true. What you are seeing is a random audio bug.

You are correct man, I try to play as close to real life as possible. I don't parry, jump on people after a silly slip, don't throw magic combos. I rarely run into guys that play the game like me. I'm almost at D8 and 90% are jab straight combo multiplyer hunting people.

Because like you said, draws dont happen that much in real life, but the difference is is that the huge majority of the people who play the game
doesn't play like how people fight in real life. This means that there are a lot more close fights that should go to a draw in an online fight compared to real life

I dont necessarily agree with that. I'd love to see the stats but I'd argue that the percentage of KOs and Subs are way higher in the game than in real life. I know thats the case offline. Less decisions equal less chances for draws.

Agree to disagree

Just the sheer amount of fights that occur in this game means youll see more draws.

How many fights happen a year in the UFC?

There's probably 100 times that many fights online in half a day in the game.

Even at 1% draws. That's a ****load of draws.






Also i'm confused. You said mechanically draws are in the game, as well as 10/8 rounds. You say the devs could make animations and audio for draws, or they could make a randomizer, and based on time, the devs went with a randomizer... Then you say draws are just an "audio bug"? You're confusing me. Are they there, or not?

You are talking about two different things:

1) You and Gamer 205 said that when Buffer doesnt announce the score in a split or unanimous decision that means that the fight was a draw. I thought the same thing too a while back and I asked the devs. They confirmed that this WASNT the case and that it did not indicate that it was a draw. I was shocked. It was just an issue with the audio.

2) Draws are technically in the game. The judges are able to award 10-8 rounds. When a draw occurs, the game randomly selects a winner. Its all done on the backend so you have no idea that it was a draw.

So it's just an incredible coincidence every single time Buffer announces a winner without a score, it just happened to be a super close fight, with close stats?


My god, making it competely behind the scenes makes things even worse. Winning and losing fights you didn't win or lose, and you don't even know.

I don't see how anyone can think this isn't an issue? Especially in hyper competitive top tier Ranked matches?
