please fix the submission exploits

I dunno why it’s so hard to find a support form for this game, but anyway, please fix the submission system. The new system is not only unenjoyable to use, but it’s incredibly abusable and a poor representation of how submissions work. 

main complaints :

1 - submission blocking and evasion should not be locked directions. It’s a lazy, half baked approach. Submission blocks shouldn’t always be in the same direction. There needs to be variety to finish directions as well as escape options.
2 - the struggle mechanic is awful. It isn’t a real thing, and is a horrible representation of submissions. They should be exactly the same as the regular grappling with explosive escape options, not this weird stamina battle. That’s not how bjj works. I would know, I have over a decade on the mats. 
3 - the current state of the submission battles revolve around spamming fake escapes to get out of subs, or spamming struggle when you have a stamina advantage. Neither of these are a good representation of bjj and are obscene. 

I love the ufc series but you guys really messed up with this one. Please fix these mistakes as they ruin the game. Thanks.

    We do have some changes arriving tomorrow that are centered more around the striking aspects, but there are a few updates to grappling and submissions as well.

    Feel free to check out the patch notes here and let us know how things feel once you get your hands on the update tomorrow!
