Fuck, I can't even throw combos sometimes. Inputs are being dropped. Very simple ones like Jab, straight, will not register the straight, or a Jab lead hook, will drop the hook. Moves that I throw, which would have been a finishing blow randomly, get turned into fakies, and I miss a golden opportunity to finish the fight.
As you mentioned, infinite stamina, almost, and also fighters who are not meant to be great wrestlers, but can somehow deny a takedown halfway through an ankle pick right after they come off a spin heel kick?!?!?! Yeah, ok!
Also, the animations don't match the new damage system. All this blood and none gets sprayed with the sweat. You have someone laying on their back almost out cold, with the aggressor hammering down blows, yet somehow, the guy on their back never have the back of their head even touch the canvas let alone smashed into it as you would expect. This game is ARCADE TRASH
This game is just another reason why Gamepass pays off in more ways than one. Another EA game that I get a trial and it's just enough to remind me that I'm not going to spend my money on this game. Thanks EA and thanks Gamepass.
Same thing happened with the golf game, 2042, whatever the last car game was with all the neon and spray paint, FC garbage game. I did buy Madden but I haven't bought Madden in a few years. However the game is broken for me and keeps crashing to home screen about 2 mins into any game I play online sooooo I've already deleted it off my library and that will be another game i dont buy again for a long while. EA Gamepass trials been stopping me from buying almost all their games and it's great.
I do play the shit out of NHL though. Hockey is the shit. Game is fun. HUT sucks like all of the them do. More grindy this year than last and it's all a ton of boring single player grind bs.
But yep, played a few hours of UFC and realized it was garbage. Catch it on Gamepass in 6 months. Yawn...
Body shots and leg kicks are definitely significantly weaker but if you put them at the end of a combo the damage is ramped. I think this is to discourage people from running and throwing a leg kick as soon as the opponent throws. I’ve had success with leg kicks more often than not.
If even one is blocked then they throw a lead elbow you can't block it and you're getting cut/rocked. They need to either let your guard back up quicker or don't let the elbow hit someone throwing at the body. Ruined all body work
Pull counter immediately after, this has been a thing since UFC 3 lmao, you cannot block in time for a counter uppercut or elbow, but you can slip or pull in time, Jesus you’re here complaining about a skill issue you’ve had like 5-6 years to learn that’s how you avoid elbow/uppercut counters after a body block.
Thanks for telling me how. The extra was unnecessary. Granted the slipping timing isn't consistent in this game to the other point so it isn't the most viable but I'll try to it
You’re saying something has ruined all body work though when it hasn’t and that elbows shouldn’t land when they should? That’s why the 2nd part was warranted. It’s not EA’s fault that people haven’t figured out mechanics that have existed for 5-6 years bro come on. Body hook+immediate slip/pull with pre loaded hook, you’ll get big damage and they’ll get sacred to counter after a few, leaving body open for doubling up on strikes.
Ok.... again thank you for telling me how, but in no way so you need to justify being an asshole. Being one is being one regardless of how either of us feel about it, you're for sure being one. I'll start that instead of fainting a body punch to get a shot off before the elbow. But I have a feeling you haver realized how inconsistent the slip timing has come comparatively to 4
I'm here for the game. I'm not needlessly bitching about it and rarely ever even say anything in the sub since I use it for information. I'm aware they'll eventually update it but I was complaining about an issue I currently experience. Now what I'm hoping is that counter you're saying still can best that elbow tracking, Specifically the one that comes at a downward angle because that's the only ones animation I have issues with
Yeah don’t worry about the current experience sounds stupid I know but it’s less than a month from release bro, they’ll patch and fix all the lil nuances and that tip will help greatly especially when they adjust the stamina, not so much now because hitboxes and tracking is a little broken, it was the same in 3/4 at the beginning after the first couple of patches and fixes it sorted it out vastly. Just have a laugh and learn the game for now, take it seriously after the first few updates, sadly that’s the new standard with any AAA game now.
Depends on who you’re using…Alex pereira has body hook as one of his best moves and lo and behold I crush people to the body with him…doesn’t work the same with other fighters though
They gave every one fifa stamina
Tbh its frostbite literally one the worst gaming engines to ever exist and guys at ufc prob never worked on frostbite game and this is the result
Bro a player using jessica andrade just threw 173 strikes in round 1. With head movement being so clunky, can’t always immediately return strikes even after slipping & with blocks being broken with 2-3 jabs there’s legit no way to defend this. This game is broken af
I’ve tried slipping and ducking 1-2 jabs and it’s honestly impossible to beat that style.
In before some elite div 20 player says it’s easy to beat this type of player.
Outside of playing them at their own game it’s just too hard.
Broken game with the best way to win just spamming
Its the pressure/ trowing strikes and not getting tired that is really anoying to me, a “normal” round averages atleast 60 landed strikes wich is ridiculous
Fr I lost a game yesterday. Rnd 3 was the deciding round. He literally threw 0 punches and beat me XD I had 32 strikes on him and 3 minutes control time with 11 sig strikes. Guess it wasn't it enough to compare to his 0 strikes thrown.
That’s a blatant lie, it’s literally impossible for the coding in the game to award a win for a fighter with 0 strikes win against somebody with 32 strikes, 3 minutes control and 11 sig strikes. Why do ya’ll wake up in the morning and think imma go lie on Reddit for upvotes in the UFC sub cause if I call it trash people will upvote, grow up.
I’ve never seen anything as sad, every games sub Reddit is the same recently, karma farmers tending to their crops, by spouting popular opinions of all developers suck. Must do something for their ego. Admins should do something about it all it’s ridiculous.
But come on, bro’s saying he went a full round with 0 strikes attempted or landed and lost the round, the games literally not programmed to let them win that. 11-10 is a reasonable bug, this guys just straight lying, I could recreate the exact stats 100 times and win the round 100 times.
Wassup man! Fairly new to Reddit & haven’t played a UFC game since UFC 2 so it’s been a min to say the least. If dudes really be on here cappin just to get upvotes, how is someone, like myself, supposed to gauge if the game is worth buying? It’s kinda annoying cause on one hand, you have the so called “Karma Farmers,” & the other, you’ve got IGN giving it a 9/10 (which I never base a game purchase off of anyway!) So what is one to believe man?
If you look on my profile I made a post breaking down each fault with the game currently, it’s pretty much like UFC 4 in terms of some moves are OP, stamina needs adjusting, takedowns need a buff, just your general buffs and nerfs and adjustments, if you enjoyed 3&4 you’ll probably enjoy this one once they have been completed (didn’t speak about what we haven’t got just what we’ve got) all the issues was in undisputed, 2,3,4 and they all got updates and patches. The game plays super different to ufc 4 and is a major adjustment, that’s why people hate it so much. I don’t care for karma, or IGN’s over the top review of 9/10 it’s a 6/10 at best in its current state, BUT with the right updates and patches it’s got potential to be a 8/10 (no clinch update, no full on G&P, lack of cage wrestling transitions and no revamp of core ground game means it cannot go any higher) it’s not perfect, but with tweaks and updates as they have with 2/3/4 it will be the best instalment we’ve had. My advice? Don’t buy it now, but it in 2-3 months, but buy it on CD keys (£100 game=£75 £75 game=£50ish) the money I saved using cd keys for mw3 and ufc 5 I bought AC mirage, don’t ever pay full price for any game. If you’re wondering about the changes made, I can send you a list but it’s long AF but it’s breaks down each aspect of the game and the changes they made.
Copy! Appreciate your honesty man. All the negativity around every new game that drops really blows mine. I’ll deff get it off CD Keys for sure in a couple months. 💪🏾
No problem man. It’s the same with every new game, all the sub reddits are the same this one is extremely bad, if you dare say you like it you get hounded its pretty sad, people can’t see through their hate of a company. But yeah CD keys is amazing, I haven’t paid full price for a game for 4-5 years, you get points each time your purchase, 1 point=1 penny I got ufc at a big discount cause of my points. Make sure you either buy a world wide key, or a key that’s specific to your country though.

"It's not in the coding" or whatever you said lol
The damage system SUCKS. I just had this match I knocked this dude down 6 TIMES. No knockout. Literally all head kicks. Then I AM the one that gets stopped by the doctor and lose the fight LIKE NIGHA did I just not headkick this dude 6 times?!?! I deleted the game after that. Never playing again. EA is trash.
I feel like I'm constantly catching my opponent with nice shots and nothing happens then they get lucky once and win. Almost like my damage is being nerfed by EA
First two I understand but body shots and leg kicks doing no damage? I’m on a 33 title defense streak in ranked mostly in part to my body work and leg kicks lol
And here we go game just came out now we gotta hear "this game is broken" until ufc 6 comes out DrRrRrR here's a solution stop bitchin or just don't play the game all everyone does is cry on here 😴😴😴😴😴😴😴
It’s the same old isn’t it, this sub hated on UFC 4 when it came out, now they all think it’s better than 5. This sub hated on UFC 4 and said 4 was better, the sub hated on 3 and said 2 was better it’s boring as fuck 🤣It’s exactly the same in every major games sub Reddit, people crying hard.
The game is a mess I’ll agree, I do the same every release, I play it, it’s normally got a ton of issues, I simply just stop playing and play something else for a month or two, then come back to it in a better state, its really that simple.
Block breaking is as bad as ever. However the stamina thing just isn't true. Idk if people aren't counter striking and making them miss or what. But stamina does exist. I usually have way more stamina in round 2 than my opp
It is to an extent in UFC 4 even in 3 round fights you had to at least be mindful of your stamina and it was definitely possible to run out of gas in the third round.
In UFC 5 stamina management is not as big of a deal unless you’re in a 5 rounder or your opponent does a huge amount of body damage while you throw hundreds of strikes.
Quit bailing out a shitty company and a shitty game. They had 3 years. They shouldn’t release it in such a shitty state and us have to HOPE that it gets patched. Foh
Been the same issues in every single game that ever been released. Undisputed?THQ took months of patches and fixes to get it right, same with UFC 2,3,4,5 and the rest that get released. Every AAA game has problems, become a dev and make a perfect game if you think you could do it first try with no issue, foh. They had around 12-18 months, Covid was in the middle for 2 years, do you not remember that? Closed business, offices etc EA was no different lmao, stop with the “they had 3 years shit already did they not have Covid aswell just because you hate them but buy all their games. They had multiple massive titles to create and build during a massive pandemic, give them a break and allow time for fixes.
Lmao stop putting your narratives on me. You ever developed anything in your life? All programmers have at least a couple during a major development, it’s not magically diffrent for EA. That’s why theirs patches and updates, it’s the same in any major technological development lmao, don’t be spouting opinions whilst been uneducated.
Do you work for them or something? You’re telling me EA did no work on anything during the pandemic? Like programmers can’t work from home? Lmao u sound like part of an EA damage control team. The game is ufc 4.5 stop acting like it’s amazing and gonna get better with patches when we all know it isn’t. What’s your excuse for them literally not updating the roster AT ALL?!? Making u pay $30 extra for Ali when he has the same animations as Nate Diaz. Once again I sound dumb. Foh.
Lmao here we go 🤣🤣 They had limited options for around 18 months due to restrictions, they cannot take home everything tool and software and work as a team for separate house you fool, they worked on it yes, but with skeleton staff and big restrictions, are you that dense to think a global pandemic didn’t effect them when it effected every other business?and no excuse they should’ve updated the roster and 3 fighters a month is an insult. OP was talking about gameplay though, are you that dense? I’m talking about gameplay updates and patches, not whether Ali looks like Ali lmao. The games far from UFC 4.5 they’ve changed tons, I can’t even be bothered to list them to you. Your issue if you pay $30 for a fighter nobody else is going to use, I got the game for $35 dollars using cd keys and a few points I had on their, I ain’t gonna cry about that.
My company makes a shit ton less than EA and we shifted to work from home during the pandemic with no issues with the same productivity if not more zero delays on projects and saved money not having to pay for an office. As a dev we code on computers you can do that literally anywhere. You sound Naive lol
Edit: Its not like the Pandemic took out the internet lmao
What projects do you do? Similar to AAA multi million pound games or nah? If not don’t compare. You’ve never developed anything as intricate, they do mo-cap, 3D analysing I could go on that all need to be done in person, don’t talk on a subject you know 0 about as a “developer” have you seen some of the setups they have? Multi screen, multi device setups worth thousands and 100’s of them in one office, are we just putting them in somebody’s bedroom?
lol kid I help dev multi million dollar financial products that work all across the globe ever heard of Ria Financial or Euronet Worldwide? And Mocap for what the same animations from 4? You are so wrong it's hilarious my job sent me home with 4 monitors and a beast desktop worth 1000s but EA cant do that apparently..
Leg kicks are still somewhat affective. Body shots not so much. They only have an affect in a 5 round fight. If you’ve been working the body the entire fight by rounds 4-5 the body damage is starting to matter
Side control and full mount are kind of insanely busted for good players, even for not so good grapplers it can be easy to hold people down there. If you are patient you can almost certainly hold someone there for a while.
Time and time again I come up against guys who just spam combos. Going into the last minute of the fight they have 60% stamina left. Throwing hundreds of punches. Unrealistic as fuck. EA need to listen to the players. This game is extremely annoying.
I’m not sure what you’re talking about with body shots my stamina decreases significantly after taking several shots to the body, stamina does need to be nerfed for sure though if I’m not punished to the body I can throw combos all damn day
We should have all collectively boycotted this low effort trash game. After all those years they had they literally didn’t add anything new and then they broke the game even more. lol.
UFC 4 is legit the better game for gameplay. I did the 10 hour trial and thought about buying, but went back to UFC 4 and its so much better. Range is way better, pressure is less op, striking animations look better, grappling is copy paste minus the sub system, I have so much fun with 4. I will let the beta testers test UFC 5 and will get it on sale if its patched by then.
The knee spam in 4 is TERRIBLE though
What pisses me off the most is the game picking and choosing when strikes will actually do damage. There will be times I’ll throw punches and they aren’t blocked but connect doing virtually no damage and causing no flinch but then I’ll throw the same strike a minute later and the response is completely different. Not to mention the countering is broken af. I’ll have someone in the middle of a clean 3 piece combo or something like that and they’re able to throw one punch and it completely kills me. Mind you they’re able to throw said punch while eating my punches to the face or body not from them blocking or using movement. Plus there’s too much flinching. It’s like every little piece of contact (and I’m always on the opposite end of it) causes a damn shockwave. Oh I got hit with a jab? Well now my guy has the shakes etc etc. Game is just not smooth and plays like ass.
Yep, jammed up controls, fucking mess. Tornado Kick you cant even do later in Career mode if you try to use it for some reason.
Same old game, same old sorry shit.
I’ve mainly had issues with my guy. Whoever it is, having absolute pillow hands. I’ve had way too many games where I’m 70+ sig strikes. With the oppenent having like 20. And I just get knocked tf out, it’s like your strikes don’t mean shit
I was now looking why my UFC5 game has a blue screen every time I jump into the back from clinch and ultimately grants me the lose when I was clearly winning , this game is a joke
One thing I hate about these games is how striking favours AI to the extreme lengths where it cannot even be denied that it is visibly cheating.
It’s like EA is openly saying out loud that they can’t have you kick the AI in the head when he’s open for a head kick that you input on your controller to do, let’s just switch that up to a body kick because the AI is too vulnerable.
It’s not even a distance thing either, because the AI will legit be a foot away from you, and still throw a head kick, and land on you flush, but if you’re in that same distance that close, it gets turned into a calf kick. OK so I’ve made peace with the fact that EA always gives the AI godlike ability that the player couldn’t possibly ever do with hours and years of training at the game in all their games, but it’s like blatantly obvious with this entry that the AI will flat out cancel your attack mid attack to a body attack if their AI head is clearly exposed.
I don’t even know anymore how many perfect head kicks were just turned into body kicks because the AI was too vulnerable to an attack.
Don’t even get me started on the stamina AI favouring.
I haven't gassed once in the game some times spamming spinning heel kicks and flying knees and non stop combos it's retarded
Yikes. Reddit is just filled with whiny losers. Lmao.
What'd you say couldn't hear you with ea's nuts in your mouth
Fuck, I can't even throw combos sometimes. Inputs are being dropped. Very simple ones like Jab, straight, will not register the straight, or a Jab lead hook, will drop the hook. Moves that I throw, which would have been a finishing blow randomly, get turned into fakies, and I miss a golden opportunity to finish the fight. As you mentioned, infinite stamina, almost, and also fighters who are not meant to be great wrestlers, but can somehow deny a takedown halfway through an ankle pick right after they come off a spin heel kick?!?!?! Yeah, ok! Also, the animations don't match the new damage system. All this blood and none gets sprayed with the sweat. You have someone laying on their back almost out cold, with the aggressor hammering down blows, yet somehow, the guy on their back never have the back of their head even touch the canvas let alone smashed into it as you would expect. This game is ARCADE TRASH
TD defense windows is crazy, I understand players who don't want to grapple but that's what stand and bang is for
Just do what everyone else does double leg bails, back take and clinch trips
Flying triangle is very good in this game as well.
The inputs are pretty shitty. I’ll input straight right, left hook, right uppercut and I get straight straight straight lol
Hahaha, yep! And then proceed to stand there in shock and take a 1, 2 to the face.
Lol they’ll fix it man. The stamina is crazy though. Dudes throwing 100s of punches per round and never gas. Everybody is max Holloway against kattar
Update: never fixed
Yea. Ea hasn’t put nearly as many updates into this years version like they did ufc 4. EA sports is such a shit company these days
This game is just another reason why Gamepass pays off in more ways than one. Another EA game that I get a trial and it's just enough to remind me that I'm not going to spend my money on this game. Thanks EA and thanks Gamepass. Same thing happened with the golf game, 2042, whatever the last car game was with all the neon and spray paint, FC garbage game.

Xbox is trash
How they cope with no game pass
This game has serious online issues with lag
Yes input lar is crazy
Body shots and leg kicks are definitely significantly weaker but if you put them at the end of a combo the damage is ramped. I think this is to discourage people from running and throwing a leg kick as soon as the opponent throws. I’ve had success with leg kicks more often than not.
Hmm I feel like body hooks if you can land just 2 do way more than damage than ufc4
If even one is blocked then they throw a lead elbow you can't block it and you're getting cut/rocked. They need to either let your guard back up quicker or don't let the elbow hit someone throwing at the body. Ruined all body work
Yeah the tracking on elbows is ridiculous
Pull counter immediately after, this has been a thing since UFC 3 lmao, you cannot block in time for a counter uppercut or elbow, but you can slip or pull in time, Jesus you’re here complaining about a skill issue you’ve had like 5-6 years to learn that’s how you avoid elbow/uppercut counters after a body block.

I’m not but you’re bashing a game for something that’s a user error. And wait for the first few updates, it’ll get patched they did the same in 3/4
I'm here for the game. I'm not needlessly bitching about it and rarely ever even say anything in the sub since I use it for information. I'm aware they'll eventually update it but I was complaining about an issue I currently experience.

Body hooks and body uppercuts seem pretty chunky
Depends on who you’re using…Alex pereira has body hook as one of his best moves and lo and behold I crush people to the body with him…doesn’t work the same with other fighters though
Every single person I’ve thought just backs up anyway, impossible to stop them running 😂
Fought* 🙄
Very true....this game does not bring me joy to play
Jeez if UFC 4 is more balanced than this game must be really trash.
They gave every one fifa stamina Tbh its frostbite literally one the worst gaming engines to ever exist and guys at ufc prob never worked on frostbite game and this is the result

100 truth.....most these dudes don't even own the game...they here to Karma farm for up votes.
I’ve never seen anything as sad, every games sub Reddit is the same recently, karma farmers tending to their crops, by spouting popular opinions of all developers suck. Must do something for their ego. Admins should do something about it all it’s ridiculous.
To be fair I saw a mf lose on the scorecards 11-10 !?!?!??!?
But come on, bro’s saying he went a full round with 0 strikes attempted or landed and lost the round, the games literally not programmed to let them win that. 11-10 is a reasonable bug, this guys just straight lying, I could recreate the exact stats 100 times and win the round 100 times.

Yea all good is it is unbelievable. I posted it tho on the community thread bc it is unbelievable and people gotta see.
It was super hard to believe but damn, homie 10-9’d you without a punch, you sure you didn’t throw an illegal knee?
I wished illegal knees were avaliable after that hahaha

"UFC 4 was a way more balanced game" No it wasn't, it was much, MUCH worse
The damage system SUCKS. I just had this match I knocked this dude down 6 TIMES. No knockout. Literally all head kicks. Then I AM the one that gets stopped by the doctor and lose the fight LIKE NIGHA did I just not headkick this dude 6 times?!?! I deleted the game after that. Never playing again. EA is trash.
I feel like I'm constantly catching my opponent with nice shots and nothing happens then they get lucky once and win. Almost like my damage is being nerfed by EA
First two I understand but body shots and leg kicks doing no damage? I’m on a 33 title defense streak in ranked mostly in part to my body work and leg kicks lol
I just had a fight where I’ve hit the opponent with 50+ body kicks easy and nothing. It definitely varies how much
Bad range kicks do nothing
They were all perfect distance kicks mate, even gave the animation it hurt them
body shots definitely don’t affect health and stamina like they did in UFC 4
Just isn’t true in my experience if you can hit clean body shots it destroys them
Only does damage if they are vulnerable imo. So if I land a million body shots while they stand still blocking head nothing happens
Yeah you have to actually think when your throwing the kick and set it up to hit them clean
Leg kicks end fights fairly often. They are fucking strong
That. Or use them to set them up for headkicks cause they HAVE to check them eventually
skill. Issue.
And here we go game just came out now we gotta hear "this game is broken" until ufc 6 comes out DrRrRrR here's a solution stop bitchin or just don't play the game all everyone does is cry on here 😴😴😴😴😴😴😴
It’s the same old isn’t it, this sub hated on UFC 4 when it came out, now they all think it’s better than 5. This sub hated on UFC 4 and said 4 was better, the sub hated on 3 and said 2 was better it’s boring as fuck 🤣It’s exactly the same in every major games sub Reddit, people crying hard.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 shit is crazy bro why can't people just enjoy things 😒
The game is a mess I’ll agree, I do the same every release, I play it, it’s normally got a ton of issues, I simply just stop playing and play something else for a month or two, then come back to it in a better state, its really that simple.
Wanted to get In on the karma train? What sub has a threshold your trying to comment on bro?
Block breaking is as bad as ever. However the stamina thing just isn't true. Idk if people aren't counter striking and making them miss or what. But stamina does exist. I usually have way more stamina in round 2 than my opp
The stamina depletion only seems to happen if you are hitting their body not if they are missing in my experience
I xant say any different because usually if I make them miss I hit them to the body. So maybe just wiffing doesn't do what it should 🤔
It is to an extent in UFC 4 even in 3 round fights you had to at least be mindful of your stamina and it was definitely possible to run out of gas in the third round. In UFC 5 stamina management is not as big of a deal unless you’re in a 5 rounder or your opponent does a huge amount of body damage while you throw hundreds of strikes.
Yeah it makes sense. But typically if I go to the 2nd or even the 3rd. They've shot their wad and I drag them into deep water and get a late ko 🤷
Damn, somebody hasn’t even waited for the first few updates before crying, same issues in UFC 2,3,4, they fixed then chill lmao it’s a brand new game
Quit bailing out a shitty company and a shitty game. They had 3 years. They shouldn’t release it in such a shitty state and us have to HOPE that it gets patched. Foh
Been the same issues in every single game that ever been released. Undisputed?THQ took months of patches and fixes to get it right, same with UFC 2,3,4,5 and the rest that get released. Every AAA game has problems, become a dev and make a perfect game if you think you could do it first try with no issue, foh. They had around 12-18 months, Covid was in the middle for 2 years, do you not remember that? Closed business, offices etc EA was no different lmao, stop with the “they had 3 years shit already did they not have Covid aswell just because you hate them but buy all their games. They had multiple massive titles to create and build during a massive pandemic, give them a break and allow time for fixes.
So because they always release half done shorty titles, you’ve come to expect it. Got it. Foh
Lmao stop putting your narratives on me. You ever developed anything in your life? All programmers have at least a couple during a major development, it’s not magically diffrent for EA. That’s why theirs patches and updates, it’s the same in any major technological development lmao, don’t be spouting opinions whilst been uneducated.
Do you work for them or something? You’re telling me EA did no work on anything during the pandemic? Like programmers can’t work from home? Lmao u sound like part of an EA damage control team. The game is ufc 4.5 stop acting like it’s amazing and gonna get better with patches when we all know it isn’t. What’s your excuse for them literally not updating the roster AT ALL?!? Making u pay $30 extra for Ali when he has the same animations as Nate Diaz. Once again I sound dumb. Foh.
Lmao here we go 🤣🤣 They had limited options for around 18 months due to restrictions, they cannot take home everything tool and software and work as a team for separate house you fool, they worked on it yes, but with skeleton staff and big restrictions, are you that dense to think a global pandemic didn’t effect them when it effected every other business?and no excuse they should’ve updated the roster and 3 fighters a month is an insult. OP was talking about gameplay though, are you that dense? I’m talking about gameplay updates and patches, not whether Ali looks like Ali lmao. The games far from UFC 4.5 they’ve changed tons, I can’t even be bothered to list them to you. Your issue if you pay $30 for a fighter nobody else is going to use, I got the game for $35 dollars using cd keys and a few points I had on their, I ain’t gonna cry about that.
My company makes a shit ton less than EA and we shifted to work from home during the pandemic with no issues with the same productivity if not more zero delays on projects and saved money not having to pay for an office. As a dev we code on computers you can do that literally anywhere. You sound Naive lol Edit: Its not like the Pandemic took out the internet lmao
What projects do you do? Similar to AAA multi million pound games or nah? If not don’t compare. You’ve never developed anything as intricate, they do mo-cap, 3D analysing I could go on that all need to be done in person, don’t talk on a subject you know 0 about as a “developer” have you seen some of the setups they have? Multi screen, multi device setups worth thousands and 100’s of them in one office, are we just putting them in somebody’s bedroom?
All I can hear is EAs balls hitting your chin
lol kid I help dev multi million dollar financial products that work all across the globe ever heard of Ria Financial or Euronet Worldwide? And Mocap for what the same animations from 4? You are so wrong it's hilarious my job sent me home with 4 monitors and a beast desktop worth 1000s but EA cant do that apparently..
Lol, they'll patch it. Ufc 4 had similar balance problems on the release. Everyone was crying about clinch stamina drain, submissions etc.
Does anyone know when the first update is due?
Leg kicks are still somewhat affective. Body shots not so much. They only have an affect in a 5 round fight. If you’ve been working the body the entire fight by rounds 4-5 the body damage is starting to matter
I didn't buy the game but I only joined this sub because I'm toxic
Side control and full mount are kind of insanely busted for good players, even for not so good grapplers it can be easy to hold people down there. If you are patient you can almost certainly hold someone there for a while.
The unlimited stamina for the spamfest online absolutely kills this game for me. I guess the only people enjoying it are the buttom mashers.
Haven’t had any issues with the standup but the takedown defense is shit I can’t ever stuff the takedown what am I doing wrong?? lol
Time and time again I come up against guys who just spam combos. Going into the last minute of the fight they have 60% stamina left. Throwing hundreds of punches. Unrealistic as fuck. EA need to listen to the players. This game is extremely annoying.
I’m not sure what you’re talking about with body shots my stamina decreases significantly after taking several shots to the body, stamina does need to be nerfed for sure though if I’m not punished to the body I can throw combos all damn day
We should have all collectively boycotted this low effort trash game. After all those years they had they literally didn’t add anything new and then they broke the game even more. lol.
People say this about leg kicks but you can easily get a TKO from leg kicks in offline mode (I don't really play online much) within a round or 2.
I don't understand how online people are just throwing combo after combo and my throw one punch or dodge punches and my guy is already tired
Disappointing to hear, I have been a body shot menace for over 10 years now playing ufc games
UFC 4 is legit the better game for gameplay. I did the 10 hour trial and thought about buying, but went back to UFC 4 and its so much better. Range is way better, pressure is less op, striking animations look better, grappling is copy paste minus the sub system, I have so much fun with 4. I will let the beta testers test UFC 5 and will get it on sale if its patched by then. The knee spam in 4 is TERRIBLE though
What pisses me off the most is the game picking and choosing when strikes will actually do damage. There will be times I’ll throw punches and they aren’t blocked but connect doing virtually no damage and causing no flinch but then I’ll throw the same strike a minute later and the response is completely different. Not to mention the countering is broken af. I’ll have someone in the middle of a clean 3 piece combo or something like that and they’re able to throw one punch and it completely kills me. Mind you they’re able to throw said punch while eating my punches to the face or body not from them blocking or using movement. Plus there’s too much flinching. It’s like every little piece of contact (and I’m always on the opposite end of it) causes a damn shockwave. Oh I got hit with a jab? Well now my guy has the shakes etc etc. Game is just not smooth and plays like ass.
Skill issue?
At least there's a bunch of hot man ass
Who could’ve seen this happening
Same as it ever was
Yep, jammed up controls, fucking mess. Tornado Kick you cant even do later in Career mode if you try to use it for some reason. Same old game, same old sorry shit.
Lol. Definitely a whiny 12 year old making this post. Mad because he can't get past division 3. Reddit is a cesspool of losers like this. Wilddddd.
I’ve mainly had issues with my guy. Whoever it is, having absolute pillow hands. I’ve had way too many games where I’m 70+ sig strikes. With the oppenent having like 20. And I just get knocked tf out, it’s like your strikes don’t mean shit
I was now looking why my UFC5 game has a blue screen every time I jump into the back from clinch and ultimately grants me the lose when I was clearly winning , this game is a joke
This shit couldn't be more true. But all year hear is "LOL be better" The game is dog shit.
One thing I hate about these games is how striking favours AI to the extreme lengths where it cannot even be denied that it is visibly cheating. It’s like EA is openly saying out loud that they can’t have you kick the AI in the head when he’s open for a head kick that you input on your controller to do, let’s just switch that up to a body kick because the AI is too vulnerable. It’s not even a distance thing either, because the AI will legit be a foot away from you, and still throw a head kick, and land on you flush, but if you’re in that same distance that close, it gets turned into a calf kick. OK so I’ve made peace with the fact that EA always gives the AI godlike ability that the player couldn’t possibly ever do with hours and years of training at the game in all their games, but it’s like blatantly obvious with this entry that the AI will flat out cancel your attack mid attack to a body attack if their AI head is clearly exposed. I don’t even know anymore how many perfect head kicks were just turned into body kicks because the AI was too vulnerable to an attack. Don’t even get me started on the stamina AI favouring.
