Thoughts on control layout?
Hi, I’ve been an avid fan of every UFC game made by EA, they felt like they certainly got better and better up to UFC 3, then UFC 4 came out and it was completely different and imo it was worse than 3. But I did learn to love it and do still love it. Then UFC 5 came out, and that was a game that I could not learn to love, not matter how hard I tried. I stuck with it to get the platinum trophy, but once I did that, I went back to UFC 4, the controls scheme was absolutely atrocious. I leave this here in hopes of the devs somehow coming across this and hopefully acknowledging this, if you agree please leave a reply. Pearl abyss have given me a bit of hope that devs are out there looking to rectify and gripes that devout fans have with the product, but I’m not holding out with EA. Please bring back the old control scheme, don’t bring forward UFC 5’s layout or even attempt to build on it, it really was terrible. This is come from Simeon who across all 5 games so far, has well over 1000 hours. Don’t put the final nail in the franchise’s coffin. Sincerely.UFC 6 IDEA
UFC 6 Is already not sounding great with the confirmation that grappling will remain largely the same. However, all is not lost imo. There are a few factors that can be introduced that would make up for this. I think a big issue with UFC 5 is that with the reworked controls, an issue was made in regards to there not being enough buttons to keep up with the actions like the Osoto Gari trip which we were not able to do due to the input already being bound to a single leg lift takedown. To fix this, I propose that emotes be removed to free up the d-pad for usage in either striking or my stance idea inspired by the game undisputed. STANCE CONCEPT: Each of the d-pad directions correlates to a stance for a different purpose. Down on d-pad- A regular stance with regular stats and the default we are all used to. No reductions. Left on d-pad- A looser stance, providing a temporary increase to footwork, speed and head movement , with different movement animations (think how MVP moves in his fights) But at the cost of increased stamina usage for evading with a reduction in blocking and overall durability. Up on d-pad- A wrestling stance, providing an increase in takedown offence and defence and reducing the cost of takedown attempts (think gaethjes posture vs khabib) At the cost of a reduction in striking stats and striking defence. Right on d-pad- Unsure for this one, maybe a boxing stance with reduced kicking and takedown defence? or maybe a defensive stance for when a fighter is rocked with a major reduction in offensive stats? A pure striking stance? Open to feedback on all of these and Ideas for right. The game has become so arcade like these last few releases and the serious players are forgotten about. If you agree with this concept please interact so it is pushed for EA to see.
Long hair McGregor should come back in UFC 4 !
Hello, in UFC 4, many players want the old Conor McGregor, but you're not paying any attention. Please bring back the long-haired McGregor. Bald McGregor doesn't quite deliver that vibe. After all, we paid for this game, but we lost Conor McGregor. Bring him back.UFC 4 Rock/Metal Playlist
Ok so I’m gonna start off by saying I enjoy rock and a wide range of music. I grew up on stuff like AC/DC so it doesn’t bother me, although nowadays I gravitate toward stuff like deathcore. I recognize that a lot of ppl won’t share my opinions on this so i labelled the songs that i thought could be considered too rock-y by some. I also labelled songs that i thought were good or notable. I’d say this playlist will be a good starting point for anyone who isn’t a huge fan of rap and just wants some high gain geetar in their UFC 4. There are legit some good songs in there and at the end of the day you can just take out the ones you don’t like, but i’m pretty sure i got every even remotely heavy song in there. (My top 3 are: Intensify, Pariah, and Slashing Wrists Raising Prices. Pariah and SWRP are very close, and tbh pariah is closer to what i’d listen to daily) Acceleration (rock-y) A Place Darker Still Attitude (hip-hop-y but good riff imo) Bareknuckled (very rock-y) Black Sheep Bonecrusher (riff rock) Bottle Rocket Breakout (punk) CE Zone of Rock (rock… duh) Disillusioned Fast Ball Fight Firecracker Foot to the Floor (blues/riff rock) Gnasher Got to Rock (again… it’s rock) Hanging by a Thread (kinda pop-y) Heart Break (rock-y) Hellfire (thrash) Hit the Top (blues solo/riff rock) Hurricane (blues/riff rock) Insane (underwhelming for a song called “insane” but still decent imo) Intensify (sounds like shamisen plus metal, I like this one) Keep on Fighting (thrash) Law of the Gun (riff rock) Mob Rules (Italian folk + Metal) My Way (sounds kinda like brit-pop) Next in Line (belongs in an NHL game) No Fear Pariah (Blast beats and D-beats, good dynamics, one of my favourites here) Pulverize Rampage (Underwhelming for the name but ok) Reef (classic riff-y metal w guitar harmonies and a d-beat section) Screamin Deamon (thrash) Slashing Wrists Raising Prices (the only somg here with screams, and they’re good, one of the best ones here imo) Slip and Slide (very rock-y) Sucker Punch (another NHL like song) Thrill Rider (very rock-y) Turn Me Up (rock-y) Twenty First Century Warrior (rock-y) Unbalanced (sounds like 00s metal) Warlord (riff rock) We Slay (this one is weird, i’m not a fan of it but i’m sure someone will be) UFC Bonus Tracks: Water in My Hands Bum Rushed i wasn’t a huge fan of the ZUFFA stuff, but it’s just not my vibe, if you like electronic/guitar (more on the electronic side) then you might like some of em, check it out yourself.
