Glitchy commentary scenarios?

[davidbix]

Feel like this probably deserves its own thread:

Where have you noticed clear gulfs between what actually happened and what the commentary is saying, to the point that it seems glitchy?

* Is there supposed to be commentary for finishing an opponent by checking a low kick? Purposefully lost this way online to see what would happen and it was treated as a regular leg kick finish. Is there commentary for this that isn't triggering properly, or is there unfortunately no recording for it?

* Kicks and punches frequently mixed up in the calls of finish replays.

* The "we're starting to wonder if anyone can even hang with the champ" type of line plays after non-dominant rounds.

* Right sided strikes to the left side of the body are still being called liver shots at times even though the two sides are now clearly delineated in terms of the meta with regards to damage, etc. Feels like it should be easy to fix this one and make the spleen shots only trigger the generic "body shot" lines but not the "liver shot" lines?

* Anik asks Rogan for comments on a fighter and no Rogan audio plays (start of a round/fight usually).

I think that covers the ones I've noticed for now.

Also...was no "real fight" audio used this time? I really liked that aspect of the previous games' commentary and this game feels incomplete without it. Was that a consequence of Anik taking over for Goldberg, because Anik has less of a tendency for Rogan & Goldie-esque "OH!!!!!" exclamations?

You also have Anik calling 'He might be out!' after straights and jabs that don't do significant damage.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure there's no pbp call for this one. I recorded a video of me winning a fight via checked leg kick and it was the same as you described:
