Ground and Pound is still broken

Guys, come on. Don't lie to us. Your patch notes say that you stopped strikes getting through posts, but this still happens constatnly. I think its time for the dev team to come to terms with reality. The new system is HORRIBLE. Nothing about it is good. We have given you pages and pages of "constructive criticism" and you barely touch it. There is no constructive criticsm to give for this at this point, the system is horrible, scrap it. UFC 3 GnP looked better, felt better, performed better. You could arm trap and save yourself, you could always try to pull them back down, it was each players responsibility  to defend/attack. In this game half the GNP is automated, and the other half is a glitchy mess of arms. PLEASE JUST GO BACK. Not everything has to be innovative and new, you don't have to reinvent the wheel on each release. JUST STOP IT.

  • Honestly ridiculous and I’m not even being salty.

    you can be smackin someone up so badly and then all they gotta do is land 1 lucky uppercut or something to knock you down and that’s it, the ground and pound is impossible to defend after being knocked down as the block bar is non existent just depletes instantly and it’s so stupid. I always have much more health and stamina than opponent and still just get mugged off. It’s just corny same thing over and over again. the block health is a joke to be honest.

    And blocking hooks while in ground and pound is the so delayed. 
    i really liked this game at the start but starting to really see the flaws

  • Clinch is also still broken, we have to have a denial. They have to be punished severely for spamming clinch. The clinch is such a mess that you guys don't even put up a grappling menu, because you honestly have no idea whats going on. Just revert the systems. Please, you guys ruined everything you changed. There is not a single change that makes sense, please fix it. We aren't going to get another game for years, we can't be stuck with this absolute mess. 

  • I would be cool if they had UFC3's ground and pound, with just the ability to frame hooks. The clinch does have ways to be avoided so I don't agree that it needs a denial, but the punishment for missing a clinch attempt is not severe enough at all.

  • Totally agree! Not being able to pull them into guard is so annoying! Dominant position always gets a free window of attack all you can do is block or sway your head.. I never played 3 but I put a lot of time into 1 & 2 and I liked them systems better then this dumbed down animated  GnP. Can we please get 60FPS with no motion blur when using Performance mode!! 30FPS is a joke it’s 2020! The game realise heavily on reads , reaction & Timing locked 30 with the input lag it creates is horrible cheers.
