Stamina serious issues

[diogomn]

Something that has been annoying me so much in the online experience is this:


Expectations: to play like martial mind hahahhah


Reality: you find a game that rewards pressure/ non intelligent fighting..
Guy throws 500 punches in first round, whiffs 400, but because he was able to hit me a few times in the stomach somehow I got a lower stamina.. I'm sorry, did I miss something here? WHat kind of bull**** is this? I can see why there are so many people were upset with the game.



That just encourages people to march foward and smash buttons......


Is it just me? Can't believe it... And yeah that's my last post, I swear

Bro understand its harder to counter than it is to pressure irl too.

You cant expect to be as proficient as pros like him when you're new to the game.

Post a vid so ppl can actually help you with specific tips.

Tbh I don't have faith in this game anymore. Been here since UFC 1 and UFC 4 is the one I just can't anymore. Tried hard to like it but just gonna wait till UFC 5 unless they surprise us with some miracle patches. Emotes, stamina, damage, realism to follow up KO's are still issues in this game, oh the tracking too... we don't even have elbows and hammer fists yet and we're in patch 9 about to be 10. God I wish I could cuss here I have so much to say. Who decided to add emotes in an MMA game? Who decided to have the intros scrapped and replaced with fighters doing moronic gestures and fortniteish dance moves? Why can't we turn off the quick chat when it gets toxic? We don't even have a f'n simulation mode for online. The cosmetics are ridiculous to say the least, animated decals really... where are the boxing gloves a lot of us have been asking for? Nah chief, Bob the builder and rainbow bear masks are what this game needs right? Jeezus man just so much wrong with this game. It baffles me why they took it in this direction. They may have added new features, new clinch, and other stuff, but man every other aspect of this game is just ugh. Don't even get me started with career mode...

I see where u coming from, and I appreciate your solicitude,
but the way you've put it, it seems like there ain't a problem in the game itself but with me, the player... I'm the one who needs to work harder to deal with the gaps in th game



My point is.. Martial is really good at the game, but most of all, he enjoys it...It's fun for him... even with all the cheese and problems of the game, he, being a pro, can workaround it...


The thing is... I don't think the game is fun for the regular player.



The main argument I wanna make is the regular player like me, (not exactly new to the franchise, Ive played, ufc 1, 3 and now 4.) will have a tremendous hard time dealing with the way the game is right now.


The online gameplay is not appealing or fun, and honestly I don't think somebody should put it the effort to play as well as martial to only then be able to actually have FUN with the game.. the game is really annoying and stressful, not even jokin here...


I'm considering stop playing for a while to maintain my mental health

That's what I'm talking about

I actually largely agree with your take here. I play the game a lot and I really don’t find it very fun. I have always been a hardcore combat sports gamer. Top ten on all the fight night and THQ UFC games, #1 on EA MMA. Now I am not even top 100 and it largely comes down to this game not really making sense to me. Thousands of matches and I’m still not sure exactly how stamina works or why I get dropped half the time.

In my experience, stamina doesn't really play a role as much as it should.

More often than not, it's the body damage (not the stamina) that will win you a long fight. I have so few fights that go to decision.

Wait until you hit the top 100 and pressure is the least of your concerns. Top 100 is full of guys who have mastered every possible exploit/cheese in the game

Nah bro it's not you're fault. Even guys like MM say they dont like parts of the game, so do I. I'm just trying to explain that you have to develop more skills to play like him.


You are trying to play like MM, bro that's hard to do. You're trying to play like him and you just started, like I said its harder to counter than pressure in real MMA too.

Even the pros have issues with pressure and think it's not where it should be, forcing it will just frustrate you like you are. You should post a vid of you playing so ppl can give you specific tips.

Accept it's not a sim and more arcade and you'll have more fun, I shifted my perspective in ufc 3 and I have more fun. I do admit it's not where I want it to be, but it is what it is. Stamina is not where it should be but you can deal with it like mm when you get better, pressure will still be easier tho.

It's like going into basketball as a beginner or something and trying 3 pointers because you saw curry do it and made it look easy on the regular instead of going for more layups.
