Especially in hyper competitive top tier Ranked matches?

I'm just telling you what I was told. I even checked the chat to confirm that I didnt misread it and it confirmed what I was told. I disagree that it only occurs in super close fights. I had one occur this weekend against the CPU in a clear 30-27 loss by me.

I think its an issue but honestly how many people have you heard complain about this? The majority of people who complain about it here (including me) are most are sim/offline players. I think I've seen maybe one or two threads here and on the old site. Really nothing on Reddit. Most of the online players dont seem to care.

When you are trying to add new features and fix issues with the game, you have to prioritize and if the community isnt clamoring for, it falls down the list.

This is definitely a gripe of mine. Decisions are way more prevelant in real life.

I'm sure some would make the argument that in order to allow more decisions to happen in the game would create a scenario where people will walk through punches even more.

The fact of the matter is, a small number of fighters have consistent fight ending punching power in real life and that is not reflected in the game.

In real life you have 4 or 5 ufc / fight night cards a month.
15 matches a card. So 5x15= 75 ufc fights a month.
In the game you have way over 75 matches a month.
So there should be more draws in the game then real life.
But the way the scoring/judges are right now is not correct.
I have over 8000 fights. 0 draws?!?
Ofcourse I want to win my fights.
But if its a draw, its a draw.

I guess what it boils down to is I don't consider a basic facet of a sport to be a feature, I consider it to be a prerequisite to having a complete sports game.

If nobody was asking for ground rule doubles in an MLB game and they decided not to put them in there because it hardly ever happens and just have the ball bounce off an invisible wall instead I would consider that an incomplete game.

They've left one of three potential outcomes to a fight (other than NC which I get being left out) out of the game. That's not acceptable no matter how few people are asking for it. If it's not in 3 then that's a huge black mark to me against the game.

Also, EVERYBODY would complain if non-choke submissions werent in the game. As Skynet stated and I've seen from certain players, EVERYBODY doesnt want or care that draws are in the game. Even if you add No Contests, Its still 1% of the time. I want them in. You want them in. But lets not act as they are "must haves" and on the level of actual submission moves.

i think joint vs choke submissions is a decent enough distinction that it's an interesting comparison but yeah it isn't totally fair. We had a bizarrely low year for joint submissions, the only reason that stat came to mine was they had mentioned on a CME in like June that there hadn't been one yet that year.

I do think draws are a must have but no they aren't on the level of submission moves, but if I had to pick I would choose draws over us getting some new submission move.

i dont know in this game, two equally matched players tend to go to decision. its only if someone is outmatched they get blasted out which happens in real life.

This is because how we as players, play the game. In real life every fighter doesnt want to be hit and doesnt want to be knocked out. They are 10,000% less aggressive in real life compared to how we as players fight in game. It is pretty normal to see both fighters throw well over 100 strikes round 1 in this game.

I think making the strikes more devastating and adding more options for footwork and handfighting are the key to more decisions. If you don't want to get hit because you know every strike could possible separate you from your consciousness most will inherently play more cautiously. MMA is chess not checkers. Making the damage and stamina more realistic (including stoppages and injury) I think this will be the key.

Also grinding in the clinch and on the ground could feel more meaningful. Yeah it might not be a lot of fun, but making every move strategically will make things count. if I had to compare it, I'd say think of how people run and gun on call of duty vs. something like rainbow six.
