Update: Are the fighters in hard mode on steroids?

Product: UFC 5
Platform:PlayStation 5
Summarize your bug The defense AND the offense are way too high after this last update. I’ve commented before on it being the defense, but I now realize it’s both.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play a game on hard mode and try your best not to get KO’d by the weakest puncher in the game.
What happens when the bug occurs? Absolutely ridiculous chaos, when hard mode used to be fun.
What do you expect to see? It back to the flow state it was in before this last update.

I’ve commented a few times before on the defense being too high, but now I see that Hard Mode in its entirety is simply too much. There’s no middle ground here, as Normal Mode is just too easy, so it feels like you’re either playing on Beginners mode or Legendary, and it’s ruined the game for me. I pray blessing over all who reads this, and I hope you don’t take the fact that I probably won’t get much attraction on this post as a means to not doing anything about it. I hope this gets fixed

  • Seems that the sparring partners got juiced as well.  Try starting a new career on hard mode.  Boxing training partner is a giant with super speed - and their aggression is anywhere from 0% (will not throw strikes when task is to ‘evade strikes’) to normal for some tasks and to %200 when tasks and ‘land more overhands’ and they tag you with three punch combo a before you can throw a jab.  

    The contender series fight has become a test of patience and luck.  The opponent will side step many punches with such effectiveness as to be behind you while you are still completing the jab they dodged.  I watched an opponent’s block go up while I was in full mount pounding on their head.  

    Hard mode is just a complete mess now.
