I'm having real trouble defending anything in the clinch or on the ground. It's really difficult to just control the position and grind people a la Khabib.

It feels weird compared to last game, as if you can't defend against the whole motion, but only the beginning of the animation. So if you see them move to transition, it's already too late.

I mean I knew he wouldn't be Roger Gracie over here but I thought if you held L2 and pointed the right stick at the opponent Literally Anything would happen. But no, nothing happens. He can do a body lock against the cage, that's it. I am actually super happy about it. I didn't expect them to be that brave.

How does Punk play? And Tyson not having any grapple commands is hilarious. They should've at least given him an Ear Bite.

Yeah Punk doesn't play very different than any Muai Thai primary/BJJ secondary guy would. I hoped they would give him the GTS or something.

I decided to buy ufc 2 on a whim even though I haven't played a ufc game since the ps2 days and I like what I'm playing so far. I like that they look super hosed up when you punch a guy a lot and grappling seems a lot easier than other ufc games. It's also giving me fight night Round 2 vibes which is great because that's one of the best fighting games of all time.

I'll be importing both Hogans today probably so I'll see how that works.

I'm getting completely obliterated in Ultimate Team. I'm hoping it's a case of the game needing time to sort players into proper tiers. Doing fine in career mode though, 8-0 all KOs

Yeah it's exactly that. Personally I don't mind it, but I wasn't expecting anything more. Apparently the main issue is that it ends too soon. I can see that being the case, I'm only 10 matches in and my life bar is getting ever closer to the "retirement" point. I just want a game where I can get into drunken brawls on TUF

Oh no, I'm sad to hear it ends so early. I loved going 42-0 over 14 years in Undisputed 3. I'm still in TUF myself, playing as 205 Sakuraba. My main curiosity is about how I didn't get to declare a style, so I'm wondering how you get announced when you get to the big time. I guess if you train your hands a lot, they say you're a boxer?

Does it not let you edit that if you import someone? If you make a character from scratch, you go into the stat editor and it lets you pick from 8 or so presets.

You only get 5 starter packs. Each one relates to the weight class of the fighter you just made, so you could get 5 heavyweight packs in no time, for example, but after that you have to use the in-game currency to buy new card packs.

If they did, it can't have been by more than 10 points in half a day. You can buy a 1500-coin boost pack if you're running low, but I feel like I have a pretty good amount already just by playing and buying the 'real' packs, so I don't know if it's something that'll be necessary for a while.

I think I've said it about loads of different games but forced retirements or whatever in career modes in WWE/MMA games bugs me. If I want to train myself to be 100/100 in all stats, aged 99 because the counter doesn't go to 100 and have a 1023-0 record taking on Robbie Lawler for the 49th time at UFC 3084, then it should let me. Just make it so characters who go over a certain amount of total stats that no official fighter in the game can have can't be used for online play.

I haven't tried any of the single player modes, but I'd be surprised if any of the skills you attain in career mode could carry over into online play. Which of course makes the apparently way-too-early forced retirements even dumber.

Fight Night 4 was pretty good about that, like eventually they retire you but I think my guy ended up with a 63-1 record or something like that. The only bad thing is that I was in camp for 1 more fight and the commission revoked my license 2 weeks before the fight

Ultimate Team is probably the coolest thing in this game and really helps it to rise above the previous iteration. Online play has been flawless so far and when I lose I really know why. Still haven't figured out a good counter to people that just want to take me down and clinch a ton though, I don't quite get why when trying to transition from bottom my transition options just disappear, is that when I'm supposed to be holding RT and fighting the other person's transition?

The conspiracy is that they made career mode short to funnel people into Ultimate Team, where the IAP lives. But career mode was apparently the same in UFC 1 without the UT mode, so it's probably not so malicious.

Le Saboteur posted:I don't quite get why when trying to transition from bottom my transition options just disappear, is that when I'm supposed to be holding RT and fighting the other person's transition? When your transition options disappear, it's because your opponent has already finished their transition. There's a sort of invisible momentum meter at play, which is why you might wonder why you were able to transition back to guard before they mounted you 30 seconds ago, but not this time around. Same idea applies to the clinch. Denying transitions and/or landing punches will put the momentum back on your side, allowing you to do more time-consuming transitions like taking their back from bottom half guard, getting into kesa gatama from side control, etc. Remember you'll never actually see the "defend" prompt when holding R2 like you do in the tutorial mode. You also can't hold the right stick preemptively like in the last game; you have to flick it in the right direction quite precisely. It's super difficult.

The UFC 2 career mode is a lot more strict about damage--not just because you can take less of it before retirement but because unlike UFC 1 passing various total damage thresholds makes you more injury-prone and makes it take longer to raise stats, which in turn makes it harder to fight the top dudes without getting hosed up more. Kind of neat, kind of a pain. Also, even as I gradually understand it better I'm coming to really dislike the grappling, in part because it seems the AI doesn't play by the same reaction/stamina loss rules you do, mostly because it really, really disincentivizes holding positions. It's a lot harder to Fitch dudes now. Oh, and I gave up on WWE 2k16's areer mode because holy poo poo what an awful slog. I didn't think they could make it worse than 2k15's.

OK, gently caress the UFC 2 AI. Playing career with a lady bantam, and every god-drat prelim chick is A) a loving Amazon at the max height and reach for the division, and B) will not even try to fight. Like, they just run the hell away if you go near them.

Yeah I'm going to have to practice as actual guys before I play career. I sit here and throw combos and knees and such at the TUF qualifier match dude for two minutes and he gets like to the second level of head redness then he liver kicks me once and I'm rocked. Also as mentioned grappling the AI is basically impossible.
