Post your EA UFC 3 BETA Realistic Fights!

[Solid_Altair]

Hi, everyone.

So far I've had quite a few realistic fights, with a slow pace and all that and with the fighters acting mostly like their real selves. Below is one that had plenty of grappling mixed in with striking (but no subs, because subs are currently OP).

Please post your realistic fights, too, preferably ones that are not too quick (easy to be realistic when it's quick )

I've had like two realistic fights in the beta, the rest are dudes trying to play this like EA UFC 2 and ends in me KOing them with counters. Seriously I feel like I could enter a MLG tournament and have a good shot at this point (Not really, but I'm like 40-3 at this point, two losses were submissions), but sadly I know when the game fully drops and people adapt to the new damage system I'll be right back in the average group of players. Which is totally fine with me if the game remains this fun. I know I'm not anything special in the game, people just need to calm down and fight smart and I'd probably be a fairly easy win for those who get good. My biggest fear is that instead of learning people are going to complain and push the stand-up game backwards a few steps.

Had some realistic fights yesterday. Today I've just been getting trashed by everyone.

Been trying to use mostly head movement instead of blocking but the game is limiting in that when someone starts their combo and connects, your head is like a ping pong ball between their fists i.e. you lose control of any head movement and have no option but to block.

Add into that the amplified danger of slipping the wrong way and it becomes very risky to use head movement. Git gud is probably the response. Just a bit :/ as I was so good at FNC head movement, even online! The punches are just so darn quick in combo compared to my head movement speed. I can slip shots like jabs, straights, and duck single hooks when I'm able to read it ahead of time, but not a chance if I get caught.

Other than that, faced a lot of jab > body kick, jab > head kick, rinse and repeaters too today, got wrecked by them. Sort of up down up down strategy. Can't seem to manage my stamina well either

Some guys did wreck me legitimately but by that point I was pretty deflated / impatient.

Back to offline I return

Ya it’s newr impossible to find a realistic fight, everyone is spamming 1-2s or jab kicks, it can be deslt with but its frustrsting as hell. Especially when inputs dont always work. Many times I’ll duck down to avoid the typical 1-2-1-2 spam, go to throw an uppercut and my guy comes up and eats 2-3 shots with no uppercut

Lol. Sometimes I go to teep and my guy throws a knee to the body instead then I get blasted

the jab > body kick is the combo that bothers me the most, because even when you know that it's coming the game does not allow you to catch the kick no matter what.

I recorded the combination with the AI and tried everything :

slip the jab, defend the body
defend the jab, defend the body
eat the jab, defend the body

no matter the timing, you cannot catch the kick.

The only thing that seems working is defend the body and immediatly counter with a straight , but the timing is strict and so far my opponents were able to defend more times than not.

Another option is duck the jab and counter, the body kick will probably hit you but wont stop your counter strike.
