No, players always complain when they suck at something and they lose. If you have a better system you can come up with for grappling, pitch it to EA. But anything that requires mini-games that have absolutely no connection or semblance to the sport has to go. Like I said, they could put a mini game for every little action. Have candycrush pop up for the submissions. That's just as realistic as any mini-game.
If you think players are mad at the grappling system because they suck at it you haven't played undisputed 3 or the first 3 UFC games. Since 4 they have disrespected the grappling and wrestling. They only care about who's popular and the martial art they used the covers show what they care about.
Ufc1: jones and Alexander Gustafson:a striker and alexander and a grappler in Jones.
Ufc2:Connor McGregor and Ronda Rousey again striker and grappler
Ufc3:Connor and the icon edition was mighty mouse. A striker and a well rounded fighter in all forms of mma
Ufc4: Issy and Jorge two strikers
Ufc5: volk and Valentina two strikers
Ufc6: poaton and Holloway two strikers
And it shows they have made wrestling restricted in the first 3 you as a postured up fighter could strike with hammer fist, elbows and as many strikes as long as you were defending the transition. In four and onward they put a times window on the position so if the bottom fighter defended long enough they were saved by the game clinch is super easy to escape when in the early one it was treated the same as the ground game you had to break the lock up now you just back up and apparently a high level athlete can't hold on? They don't focus on a major aspect of mma they have put the grappling aside for years starting with UFC 4 and haven't done anything to make it better. Even submissions are a stalling system to just drain stanima no fun. Just waiting and blocking advances back and forth. This is a game. The first rule of games is. Fun. You may not like the mini games but they added a aspect to the game that was engaging this current model isn't. Even undisputed 3 had a mini system and that game had a minimal HUD and could have no hud just the sub mini game and that still loved as the best MMA game. They cared about grappling and the stand up. These past few counting this one only care about the stand up
