How to Choose a Fighting Style in EA SPORTS UFC

GoodGameBro writes, "Although EA SPORTS UFC has a pretty solid roster of real-life fighters to choose from as you enter the Octagon on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, eventually you’re going to want to turn your focus to Career mode and create a fighter of your own to work your way through The Ultimate Fighter all the way up to a UFC contract and main event status. With ten disciplines to choose from when creating your fighter, however, there are considerations to be made in order to make sure that your fighter fits your style. Let’s take a look at which fighting styles are best suited to which types of playing style in EA SPORTS UFC.

Regardless of what fighting style you select for your created fighter, you’re going to end up with a 59 overall character who has a long way to go to make it into a main event against a real-life UFC star. Fighters in EA SPORTS UFC are rated in three major categories: Stand-Up, Submission, and Ground; there seems to be no better way to break down the fighting styles to help you figure out which style is best suited for your Career mode experience."

I wouldn't go that far. If you can look past it's flaws then sure. I personally can't stand the frame skipping and the weird hit detection. Some of the fighters look weird when they move as well. It's definetly a step in the right direction.

Edit: I have it for the xb1.

Yeah I have the PS4 version, I haven't noticed any frame skipping but I'll tell you it still has it's issues. Several times during training in between matches the other fighter locks up and won't do anything. And a couple times during the career fights they have just fallin down n not got back up or been stood up. And it won't let me get on them.

It's a fun game, but the collision detection is weak. I knock people out but it looks like I'm tapping them as lightly as possible. N that's not sometimes, it's the whole game. Contact barely looks like it's being made.

MMA was better in my opinion....

I'm hoping they can patch some of this.

Since when is Karate considered ground fighting and not stand up orientated.

EA Sports UFC 4 PS4 Review - PlayStation Universe

From PSU: "Without a doubt the best MMA videogame ever made, EA Sports UFC 4 supplements a welcome array of new offline and online modes with a revamped and endlessly sophisticated combat system that everybody can enjoy. For MMA fans it doesn't get any better than this."

Strange as a lot of YouTube beta players hated it. They've had years and just copied and pasted ufc 3 ith a few new haircuts

yeahokwhatever1352d ago

its not fight night, so not buying it. do boxing or go home.

nowitzki20041352d ago

Go home and wait for Fight Night.

ActualWhiteMan1352d ago

Same... although they long ago fired all the developers that made FN great. So it would likely be terrible if it came back.

MadLad1352d ago

Comes to a UFC related game to whine about it not being a boxing game.

Ok.

FlavorLav011352d ago (Edited 1352d ago )

Well, for context EA did put in real boxers Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua in the game, and Isaac Frost and Andre Bishop from fight night champion in the last game. No getting around it, they have been c@ck teasing boxing fans for years with this sh!t pre-order dlc

yeahokwhatever1351d ago

these UFC games are trash, they play terrible. UFC is not really a good choice for a game because of the limited inputs controllers have. But EA got the license on the cheap, so they've been shoveling this crap at us for years while we wait patiently for a fight night that will probably never happen until Mayweather is dead or runs out of money.

zeroskie1352d ago

Same. I want another fight night so badly.

yeahokwhatever1351d ago

my wishes:
fight night primarily focused on online, like gt sport.
ONLY stick controls. No button mashing. if you try to mash buttons, your characters head explodes and he's permanently deleted from the game.

nowitzki20041351d ago

Same here, I love boxing more than MMA but I also want a good MMA game as well.

I agree with this review, I tried it only because it's free on EA Access and figured I'd hate it like I did the other games but lo and behold I loved it and plan to buy it now. The game is so much more fun now that they've made it so much less complicated and inaccessible to non-hardcore fighter fans.
