Online Career Screen Glitch Exploiter
EA_Mako The #1 ranked guy in North America - HoundSkin - is seemingly doing the thing where he somehow initiates a glitch where screen just gets stuck on the white loading screen. In the past 2 days it has happened 3 times against the same user. He's never been near the leader boards but now he's got 2800 points? I play the same people all the time. I know who's who and i bet this guy is just winning by DNF at 0:00 for all his fights. I've ran into a few people who intentionally do it - faaTTy300 was one from last season. What sense of accomplishment is it to be at or near number 1 by just making real players leave a stuck screen? It makes people who actually play the game lose points and wastes time. Any chance they fix this glitch and penalize known users who abuse this glitch?
Online Sucks
Am I the only one who is noticing their loses are almost 3x what their wins are? Now I know I suck and it's bc I just started playing but why would EA keep putting me up against difficult opponents. They claim they have skill based matches but there is no way they think I can fight these guys when I only won 1 out of the 5 placement matches.New Roster Fighter and Alter Egos

Alter ego not showing up
Product: UFC 5 Platform:PlayStation 5 Digital Edition What area of the service are you experiencing an issue with? Game Issue How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%) Summarize your bug Connors alter ego's are not appering Connor Mcgregor alter ego's are not appering in my game and I bought the black friday pack can someone help meThe Created Fighter Size is fine, it’s another issue entirely. Let me explain.
I think I realized something as I was measuring the CAF height today. It’s not that my created fighter got larger, it’s that I think the fighter I usually compare his height to got SMALLER. I’m just keeping it real EA, You guys are notorious for messing up the heights of fighters after just about every update and patch. See Amanda Ribas, Joaquin Buckley, Marina Rodriguez, Arman Tsarukyan, Jack Della Maddalena, and many more for example. All of these fighters stand at a height inconsistent with what their stats would suggest. What is consistent however, is the rate at which you guys are ruining the height system, and while I know it’s because of the ocd that I’m able to pick up on these bugs and care so much.. I’m honestly shocked that no one else is talking about it. I dont expect you guys to fix this.. I just want the problem to be made known. side note: Just because people aren’t getting behind this, doesn’t mean the problem doesn’t exist. I’ll give you a practical example that anyone can check for themselves to see. Check and compare Joaquin Buckley (5’10) to the height of Jack Della Maddalena (5’11), and you let me know if you really think that’s just a 1 inch difference. And that’s only a single example of the many, what’s going on EA?BROKEN!!!!!
This game is a joke, who ever is incharge of attributes and players stats NEEDS TO BE FIRED!! how are any of these fights fair?. it makes no sense ABSOLUTE JOKE, all i get from playing this game is a desire to wana throw my xbox out the window... 2 identical ufc male fighters (plyer vs player) i block 3 punches & throw an over arm and hes KO'd?. how is that even possible unless the whole system is out of sync !!.. and why cant we at least taunt the other player via text?. all youve done by stopping players being able argue via game chat is make it so that players message you via xbox!! its a fighting game let ppl rant if they want to!! everything about this game is a joke DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY easports dont care
ATTENTION DEVS
Too many knockdowns. The record for most knockdowns in a Fight is 4, so why should we be able to get 4 knockdowns almost every fight in just the first round. Nobody is standing up after getting hit that hard twice. Very small percentage of fights even see multiple knockdowns. This makes defense pointless and only situational. This is why you have a 1.4 star rating on UFC 5. Because I can knock someone silly on the matt then they can pop back up and throw some garbage like a flying knee or a front flip kick. Its actually hilarious but completely derails any legitimacy of the game. Nobody had ever landed an axe kick while receiving a 4 piece combo. Its unrealistic and has ruined your game. Any fight you are dominating in can just get flipped by some nonsense thats never happened before or ever will. Why should anyone be able to come back from a fight after being knocked out 4 times??? Another fun fact that devs never realized it that almost all fights end after someone gets hit that hard. Humans arent Rhinos we cant just take 50 devastating hits to the head. Now you can run away on your backfoot, stop then throw and just because youre being chased you get the advantage to strike. It makes no sense just ask any UFC fighter, thats not real in the slightest. Also ground mechanics for denials, is a huge issue. Make the window bigger. nobody should be dominating just because they are timing goofy unrealistic transitions. Nobody should be getting stuck on the ground with no sign of struggle. This is a massive issue, either make transition easier or make denials easier. Transition fakes are almost always unguardable. Until these issues are fixed the game is severely flawed and cant be taken seriously. Arcade style Tekken takes more skill in the games current state. Hire me to help creatively direct the way fights really are to make a real game thats gonna get 5 stars. Dont let this trash continue.Why doesn't EA Sports release a UFC game every year?
Why doesn't EA Sports release a UFC game every year? It's now one of the most watched sports in the world. UFC 5 has been out for a year and a half now, and the game is dated, becoming obsolete, and no longer appealing. The game's mechanics, especially the grappling, are no longer evolving, the latest Venum kits and many of the most successful fighters are missing from the game... In the end, we play it less and less, and then not at all because we're too far removed from the UFC's current events. Why don't they make games like 2K every year?
Join an online game and it freezes
I join an online game, we both select a fighter then while loading into the fight it just freezes. Three times today it has happened to me in a ranked game. This isn’t the first time it’s happened, I first experienced this months ago and it still hasn’t been fixed.UFC5 Ranked
I can’t count how many times I’ve played ranked and I run into someone who glitches or ddos the match, basically as soon as I win the match freezes and we’re both waiting for someone to exit the match first, I’ve checked and yes they are also waiting for me to leave… this one time I ran into a guy that said he’s done this over 30 - 40 times in ranked and he litteraly waited 2-3 hours and I just left. And it took my division points even though I clearly won.
