Submission Inprovments Needed for UFC 6
So the new sub system is a good idea implemented poorly, in my and many others' opinion. A big factor in its weakness is the inability to practice what we see in competition in offline practice/career modes.
While some people disliked the sub mini games on UFC 4, you could at least get an offline approximation of what to expect from high level grapplers in ranked. Currently, the practice mode with the recording options doesn't cut it and the AI is simply meager in offering up a challenging submission onslaught. The AI needs to replicate a true "submission race" if you plan to continue this system.
Memorizing animations is one thing but you need reps to commit things to muscle memory. Basically, unless you have people to practice with, you are at a massive disadvantage. I'm not a bum either, yet I feel like I'm still leaning submission defense in a trial by fire fashion instead of by drilling in a suitable offline practice mode.
I've had my messages turned off for about 5 years due to this often toxic community so I am not eager to "make friends" just to practice something that should be an adequate practice mode in the game itself.
If you could kindly pass this along @EA_Mako
