What is your time zone? GMT (UTC)
Which mode has this happened in? Other
Summarize your bug The clinch is fundamentally broken, eg; its near impossible to escape from an attempt, a lot of block damage is delt through this and spammers are so previlent in this game it makes it hard to enjoy, especially when you run into a high level player on ranked that only cliches and theres no way to stop or counter this effetively. I understand where the idea that this would impliemnt a new system into the EA UFC titles but at the moment this implementation is floored and needs to be looked at. However the way the clinch works is fun and its new, being able to transission quicker and such, i believe to improve this further a denial would make it a lot more fun for all players.
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play ranked for 1 hour and a clinch spammer will appear.
What happens when the bug occurs? Anger and not wanting to play the game anymore.
What do you expect to see? A look over how the clinch works in this game and some new systems to help with this issue.

As stated above, the clinch needs to be looked at. However this game has definetly improved from 3 and it's great to see.

    When you get clinched what do you do on the controls? I'm not questioning your expertise in the game but I have to ask, have you watch the tutorials on clinches?

    @EA_Blueberry I know the controls, i can dodge it, counter with a strike or jump backwards. As well as this, once in the clinch really you can only block or get into an over plumb, then eventually escape. However getting a next gen console has extremely improved this so is not so much of an issue although, i still belive adding a deny as an option could be suplemental to these tactics.

    @cain122361 With the next gen console are you getting better response time? Curious why you feel it's improved.

    The team is starting to drop some spoilers in Discord, starting off with some clinch details in the next patch.

  • I wish there was a HUD menu like in UFC 3 so I could know what I'm doing instead of just randomly flicking my stick and hoping something happens. 

    UFC 3 grappling was better.
