UFC5 was REALLLLLLY FUN and in binged it for a a week before I got very bored. I’m not here to bash you guys. I’m here to genuinely give you my thoughts on what can improve the gam. There is no immersion to the UFC events or career. Here is a list of what I think would improve the game without much coding or effort on your part.
- Being able to see the fight card each week and even being able to set a force win for the cpu fights so you can control your UFC universe around you if you want. For instance, Khabib always takes an L and I wish I could continue his undefeated career in my UFC world. You have this feature available and games like Madden so I would think it would be easy to implement here.
- Better news system. Maybe seeing the results from other fights each week? Something that logsthe full past fight card news as well. Being engaged with the past fights around your UFC world would keep you entertained more. Seeing fight cards from fight night or pay-per-view would be awesome. Better separation between pay-per-view events and fight night events. A fight card for the weeks that you are not fighting and that you are in training camp so you can be aware of the UFC world around you even when it’s not your card or event.
- Better corner injury features. Currently there are none in-between rounds. Very disengaging and unrealistic if you play multiple fights in a row, it gets very boring . You could have some sort of point system where you have X amount of points per round to spend on fixing up your player and getting their health back you can base the X amount of points that the fighter gets on the work they did in the training camp.
- Custom walkouts. Being able to set a new walk out would be awesome or you should get rid of the walkout cut scene and do more of a first person interaction movement as you’re walking down for the fight. Cut scenes are lame and offer no immersion especially since they are the same ones over and over.
-Please expand on the amount of tattoos you guys have. No reason there are such little amount of designs to pick from. There’s no reason the real fighters tattoos aren’t available to equip on a custom player. They are already in the game just let them be available in tattoos.
Fighter log where you can see the players ages and overalls and a log of who they have fought in in their career. You also need to do a better job of controlling age of players. It’s no fun fighting 40 year olds repetitively looking for title shots over and over. Figure out a better way to get the younger guys that are winning title shots or let us control the results in force wins of the fights like I mentioned above. This will at least allow us to force loss all of the older fighters so they aren’t at the top of the ranks anymore. Some sort of retirement hall so you can see the fighters who retired, the belts they held, their record, rivals, age etc. currently, there’s no sort of immersion with fighter history and stats or accomplishments and it’s kind of boring to play long-term without those kind of things.
- And last but very, not least being able to go up AND DOWN weight classes at your leisure if you’re not the champion. Also If I’m the lightweight champion undefeated, and I want to go down to fight the featherweight undefeated champion, I should be able to request that fight or vice versa. Currently you can only go up a weight class and it has to be initiated by your coach or Dana White. Being able to request any fight would be awesome as well, doesn’t mean it will get approved, but it would be cool to be able to select your own fights or have a little bit more say. You need some sort of system where you can progress through weight ranks. Maybe some sort of working out feature so you can add and lose weight with lifting weights or doing cardio in your flight camp. Missing and making weight would be such a cool feature.
