I am only playing fight now and custom fight now 3 rounds at the moment and i see that the ringgirls are only seen in the background,are they seen like in every other ufc game in other modes or 5 round fights ?

Can't test now, but this is actually a good question.

You can add it to the dozen of removed features I guess.


Though it adds to immersion, this one I don't really care about. Still a pity anything gets removed.

I can think of plenty of reasons why EA would take the ring girls out of their game. I think having them in the background is a fair compromise.

The ring girls are a part of MMA, regardless of how you may feel about them. EA have had them in all of their games so it makes sense to include them in #4. I don’t think you can just pick and choose what is in your game and what isn’t when you’re supposed to be making a sports game. You can’t not include TKOs when they’re a part of the sport and you can’t not include draws and doctor stoppages. Although it’s a smaller issue, you can’t not have ring girls walking around the octagon before the start of every round.

The ringgirls do walk around the octagon in the background but the close up leaving the octagon and announcing their name is gone which is such a normal part of the pre fight it should not have been removed,why would they have to redo them again just use the animations they already have .

Well, the game doesn't, and it doesn't seem to bother the UFC.

I'm not saying what they should and shouldn't do. I'm saying it's pretty clear why EA would make this change.

What would be one of those reasons? It's not like its a game made for kids, or that the UFC tries to hide ring girls
