Hello,
I am a relatively advanced UFC Mobile 2 Player and have also extensively played UFC Mobile 1 until its discontinuation. I want to offer my POV to reach the developer team with the goal of seeing eye-to-eye on the state of the game (which has not been the case for the most part).
I want to preface by saying that I am the one who submitted 2 documents regarding the events in a PDF format, which was introduced to the former CM Shay, I am unaware of the status or whether or not it even reached the developers.
I am currently level 46, soon to be 47 in the game (I have been playing for about 1 year), I feel the end of the game is rapidly approaching, but there is a lack of novelty in the game, which should not come as a surprise. The last event we received was in October which was borderline a UFC 280 event masqueraded as a Halloween one.
The most glaring issues I can think about from the top of my head are the following:
-Lack of Events (No event period or lacklustre ones as detailed in the document I mentioned earlier)
-Difficulty obtaining certain items (T4 Style gloves, T2 Elite Items, Coins, etc.)
-New addition of fighters are not tested (Conor McGregor does not throw spinning back fists, Usman the former #1 P4P did not feel like it, and Aljamain Sterling has not 1 but 2 spinning back fists in his arsenal)
-Many fighters do not feel like their real-life counterpart
-Lack of depth in the game (No H2H, No Legends event, No way of grinding the game)
-Lack of updates from the team (No more weekly streams, no updates on discord, no updates from the dev team)
I remember back in UFCM1, there was a weekly spotlight fighter where you get to play a fighter for 5 fights and get rewarded, if you liked it, you could purchase it, but you get a trial to really know what you are getting.
H2H at times was buggy but it did offer good rewards
Many events were highlighted, my favourite was the UFC 217 where GSP returned and faced Bisping.
The fighters felt like their real-life counterpart, so if you are a fan of let's say Conor McGregor(peak 2017, it was difficult to not be a Conor fan), You could try to obtain the CE, H2H, and Boxing editions of Conor.
There are obviously many great improvements brought in UFCM2, but the biggest problem that has been plaguing the game is really the lack of communication. I am speaking for myself here, but I can do without H2H, I can move past a particularly poorly designed event (June's Prismatic), but what I cannot accept as a dedicated player is the lack of communication.
What is the purpose of these forums? what is the purpose of discord? The most upsetting time was when former CM Shay caught covid back in march and we had to go 3 weeks without any updates from the team regarding a very bad bug. We played for 3 full weeks without even a small notice "Hey we are aware of the bug, unfortunately, no timeline can be offered at the moment for a fix, please be patient with us". All we ask for is to not be left in the dark, that is all.
I understand that not every question or concern can be addressed, but when players like me who take time out of their day to compile and design a formal document which comprises of well presented text, images, charts, tierlists and even a condensed version of that and I get no responses period. It gets quite annoying.
I hope I can reach at least 1 EA representative.
I welcome anyone from EA to reach out and hopefully we can talk about the state of the game.
Thank You
