Current Stamina Config Ruins Online Game Play

This needs to be tweaked ASAP. I thought the entire methodology here was to create a game that encouraged realistic fights. You've streamlined the combo system to reflect that idea. Why haven't you adjusted your stamina and damage to do the same? Oh, and this was a three round fight....

Simple math indicates that this guy was throwing power shots 72.6 percent of the time (268 of the total 369 strikes). He still had 60 percent or better stamina at the end of the third round. Give me a break guys.

I feel like sometimes the stamina seems to work realistically, and other times we get stuff like this. Any insight anyone can give on the stamina system? Is it glitchy or something?

So from what I've read and from looking at GPDs comments on stamina:

There is a large stamina drain for missed strikes especially modified strikes but NOT for strikes that hit the guard/block.

Therefore if in this situation Velasquez 'missed' a lot of those strikes by hitting the block / guard he wouldn't have lost a lot of stamina.

Hence why we are seeing a lot of guys online just constantly marching forward throwing strikes at your guard virtually un-punished whilst one missed high kick results in a large stamina drain.

I believe less stamina is also lost if you throw the programmed combo strikes but this is anecdotal and hasn't come from GPD just my own experience.

I feel like this is also true.

I dunno about you guys, but I get tired pretty quick hitting a heavy bag.

Whos idea was it that blocked strikes wouldn't cause Stamina drain?

I feel like stamina drain should be increased to stop people from throwing 100 strikes a round. BUT, it is also important that damage from all strikes in all positions be significantly increased.

This way people know they don't need to throw tons of shots, but just a few well set up strikes to end a fight.

That said, I've had more luck than I would have expected getting people to throw themselves out in the first round or two, then I can just pick them apart in the later rounds. Which I love about this game that they finally added this mechanic.

Stamina is awful now. Needs to be fixed! The tuning before this last update was almost perfect in my opinion. Now the game feels awful. Consistently going 3 rounds with heavyweights and light heavies when clean shots are landed all throughout the fight. They should feel dangerous like the fight can end at any time. Now Anthony Johnson rocks guys 40 times on his way to a decision. What feedback led to the most recent changes? Or did they accidentally break something?

They cause stamina drain. Just not as much as whiffed strikes.
