Reach should matter more in the next game.

I dont get why taller fighters have to have a +2 frame tax simply because they're taller. Getting inside on someone with reach should be a matter of skill the same as taking people down. It's too easy to crowd taller fighters in this game

Part of the problem is the ease and efficiency of moving strikes renders the advantage having a long reach gives you much less effective.

When I throw an perfect uppercut with Ngannou, but his Gorilla arms turn into T-Rex arms with no Power... UFC 3.

Because historically reach has reigned supreme in MMA games. Sure the implementation could be better but I still appreciate that they tried something.

If reach is a problem.... look for the takedown...

That's how it should be. That's realistic. You should change your gameplan based on who your fighting anyways. The game would feel much better. Bums cant always cry and get their way

I haven't played any other MMA game other than the EA UFC trio but maybe he means you couldn't get inside at all in the older games. Obviously getting inside and closing distance is a thing and taking the guy down isn't and shouldn't be the only option. So we can actually get inside in 3. I think you may have a point in saying the long reach fighter is at a disadvantage but...it is about skill, isn't it? In real life as well as in the game. Stefan Struve has reach for days but people get inside all the time and beat him up because he can't use it. Jones is the exact opposite. And you have better keep-away tools with Jones in the game, too. It's much easier to create distance with him.

I'm just thinking out loud here, tomi can elaborate on his own post.

When jones and strive strike virtually the same we have a problem
