UFC 6 needs stable custom cameras and fully customizable HUD options

I know I have already talked about the HUD and camera styles before, but I am bringing it up again because the more I play UFC 6, the more frustrating these problems become.

I used to love playing on the Classic camera. Compared to Wide, it gave me a much better sense of distance, depth, and positioning. I could clearly tell when I was in boxing range, kickboxing range, or completely outside my opponent’s attacks.

Wide does not always give me that same depth perception. Sometimes it feels almost two-dimensional, like the fighters are moving left and right across a flat screen instead of occupying real space inside the cage. It can make judging distance and timing much harder.

The problem is that Classic is difficult to use in UFC 6 because it feels too tightly zoomed in, while the HUD is absolutely enormous. In middleweight, light heavyweight, heavyweight, and other divisions with taller fighter models, the HUD can literally cover or cut off the tops of the fighters’ heads.

That is not only ugly—it can interfere with seeing head strikes coming. I should not have to choose between the camera that gives me better depth perception and actually being able to see the complete fighter models.

Wide has a completely different issue. Sometimes the zoom looks appropriate, but after a takedown, health event, knockdown, or another major moment, the camera suddenly pulls extremely far away. Then, for whatever reason, it does not always return to its previous zoom.

Once that happens, the fighters look tiny and far away. It becomes much harder to measure distance, judge depth, recognize the range of attacks, and play the striking game properly. The camera should smoothly return to its normal position after those moments instead of remaining randomly zoomed out.

I have tried playing on both Classic and Wide, and both have frustrating problems. Classic gives me better depth and distance perception, but it is too tight and gets obstructed by the HUD. Wide gives me more screen space, but it can feel flat, and its zoom behaves inconsistently.

That is why UFC 6 needs a custom camera option. Let us adjust the zoom, height, angle, and distance ourselves. A lot of players probably want something between Classic and Wide rather than being forced to use one of two imperfect presets.

The HUD also needs full customization. Players should be able to adjust its size, opacity, layout, and level of detail. Experienced players do not need giant health and stamina meters taking up that much of the screen.

I know some people will say, “Just turn the HUD off,” but that is not a realistic solution. You still need to see your own stamina, your opponent’s stamina, and Grapple Advantage. Those are essential pieces of information, especially when playing competitively.

I would also like an optional contextual HUD similar to UFC 5 Ranked, where an opponent’s health information was revealed as you damaged that specific area. If you attacked their head, you could see their head health. If you damaged their leg, you could see their leg health. That kept the screen cleaner instead of displaying every meter at full size all the time.

Camera and HUD settings should also be accessible directly through the pause/options menu. We should not have to back all the way out to the main menu, scroll into settings, enter gameplay options, and then change the camera or HUD. These are basic presentation settings that should be adjustable much more easily.

At the very least, EA needs to slightly zoom Classic out, reduce the default HUD size, and fix Wide so it consistently returns to its proper zoom after takedowns and health events.

The ideal solution is to give us complete camera and HUD customization. Let every player create a setup that gives them the depth perception, visibility, and gameplay information they need without the screen feeling obstructed or unpredictable.
