EA Sports UFC 2 News Post


Geoff Harrower, A.K.A. GameplayDevUFC, has been posting quite a few details on the upcoming EA Sports UFC 2 patch on his Twitter page. While no date for the patch has been revealed, he has posted quite a few nuggets. Check out some of them below and let us know what you think!
  • Added the ability to block when in any level of hit reaction to the legs or body. This should fix the "magic combo" issues.
  • Tuned AI transition denial success rate to be more dependent on grapple advantage
  • Increased stand up arm health damage taken when holding High Block by 20%
  • Reduced stand up arm health recovery when holding High Block by 20%
  • Fixed exploit that allowed fighters to hold their opponent in side saddle with little opportunity for escape
  • Added Grapple Advantage Meter which allows users to better understand grappling mechanics and timing
  • Improved AI takedown defense
  • Further AI stamina management tuning
  • Taunt with @BlessedMMA in the last 20 seconds of the round and have your opponent taunt back to end a round "The Holloway"

Yep. I gotta say I was disappointed about that one.

People will be happy about Dunham though.

Are fighters in their active weightclasses? Cerrone WW, Lombard MW, Barao FW etc.

Trujillo is a good one. I get why they didO'Connell, but I would have preferred Nikita Krylov.

I gotta think the only reason Brooks isn't in is because it takes a while to get these guys made, right?

I also get the feeling the UFC is still out to lunch on Brooks. He was a big free agent but neither of his first two fights are a headliner or at least on a PPV. I've been surprised with his real life promotion, so I was kind of prepared for this.

Oh well, if there is one more patch, I find it hard to believe he doesn't get in.

Pettis not in the FW divsion
 
# 273 Boiler569 @ 08/16/16 02:41 PM
geez I take a few days away from this place and this drops

* 20% reduction in high block --- that just so happened to be the number I had requested But I know I'm not the only one who thought this needed to happen!! Thank you community & GPD this will be a great fix, IMO

* Glad magic combos are gone, proof is in the pudding though, so i'll reserve judgement lol...

* Grapple advantage meter sounds very interesting. Overall I like the idea, though I sort of like having each person having to *feel* what their GA is. But cool concept

Looks legit !

I was hoping Lombard would get moved to MW and Pettis to FW. All the other ones I can move using combined weight classes in Custom Events.

One of the biggest misses in this game is not allowing one up and one down weight class changes for Custom Events.

They were on the right track with combined weight classes, which is why it's frustrating they didn't give us the one up and one down option because they clearly know shifting weight classes would help keep the game fresh.

Thanks guys, better than nothing I guess. Can someone check if Live Events Pick & Play is updated for UFC 202 and if the Cerrone vs Story fight is playable? A confirmation of the Imanari roll for Ferguson and MacDonald would be much appreciated to whomever can do that, thanks.

There is no GA meter in ranked.

Should have just added the option for combined weightclasses in unranked and used that as their base for the Pick & Play.
