New Clinch System in UFC 5?

Is the Clinch System being worked on as well? I know there were some that liked it and others that didn't, but I personally was not a fan of the Clinch system in UFC 4. It would be cool to have a motion to deny the clinch like how takedowns are denied. I do like the method of getting off the clinch by moving away, but It would be great to have a pull/push method, where if Fighter B is moving away and Fighter A and following and moving forward, the clinch will stay and moving left and right and have the opponent going the opposite direction can break the clinch. Just because the clinch work was very easy to get out of and had many inputs for throws and takedowns that were not obvious to do.

  • Clinch is the same. Untouched. Can't slow the pace of the fight and pin anyone against the cage and grapple. No denying someone with their back on the cage to escape. Either throw a couple lame strikes really quick before they've escaped or attempt a td within the first couple seconds you have them pinned. 

    3s clinch grappling was decent. Not perfect but the foundation was there. Then they removed it for this mess. Then  years later, you're being fed the same leftovers. EA sucks. Used to throw a bunch of support their way but not anymore. 

    Ooooh, we have replay! So did the first NHL game I had on Sega genesis. Doubt it took 3 years to implement.
