Yeah, fuck. How the hell am I supposed to rear naked choke people in round 3? That means that not only do I have to beat him down without KOing him all the way to the third, but I've gotta pass his guard (easy enough) and he has to try to roll over while I block him from getting guard again and then get the submission (highly unlikely).

Your major transitions are usually rightstick down-right to up-left, then roll it to up right, which usually leads to an escape or, at the very least, back to guard.

Just finished my first career, won back the light-heavyweight title from Evans with a second round KO. Finished 27-7-0, no hall of fame though.
Going through on lightweight now, up to 8-0-0 and sparring the crap out of my sparring partner and doing better in the training camps. |

Yeah, I always use Bisping and a lot of my fights have been wins against guys fighting as Silva. Not lost to him once. Yet the one time I used him (against Bisping coincidentally) I got KTFO

funnies moment for me:
I KO Stephan Bonner with a head kick during a career. Bonner lands face up at the feet of Steve Mazzagati. Steve drops to a knee and waves off the fight. It looks for all the world like he's teabagging Bonner in the process. I so wish I had a pic of it. |

Had an epic 10-fight war against some random dude last night. We both remained the same fighters throughout; I was Rampage and he was Silva. Ended at 6/4, my lead as I GNP'd his face into oblivion the last two fights since the dumb bastard wouldn't stop using the same combination - leg kick, leg kick, head kick. So I'd take the two leg kicks and shoot for the single leg while he went for the kick, take down to half-past guard position, GNP. Awesome night.
If only my roommates would get the fuck off the TV so I can play. |

Knocked out Brock Lesnar in the second round to become the heavyweight champion. He took me down a couple times, but I somehow managed to get out of it both times, which was a shock to me (and I'm sure the audience as well). It was truly magical. Frank Mir is my first challenger, and I'm scared.

So I'm to the point I'm taking all comers (yes, Rashad too). 29 and 0, Dana just told me I'm going into the HoF. I've tapped Rampage, Machida and Evans, my last fight is in 8 weeks against Rampage.

Not entirely sure, but I have a ton of fight of the night trophies, a bunch of knockout of the night trophies, my striking trophy, I'm the champ, and undefeated. So I think it's a combination of accolades and win steaks.

FUCK YEAH
Rematch with koscheck and I knocked the fucker out. First round was very close, but I think I won it, as I stuffed 3 of his 4 takedown attempts, and quickly got out of the forth one, and was dropping bombs on him all round. Second, he started beating the shit out of me, and even had me rocked at one point, but I got out of it. The head kicks started to take their toll tho, and once I got back up to standing, I knocked him out. Matt Hughes for the title was next, and I fully expected to lose. Almost did in the first round. He was at full mount and pounding the shit out of me, and rocked me. Just as I was about to get out of it, he caught me again, and rocked me. Then he went for the sub, and was about to tap me out, when the bell rang. Soooooooooo lucky there, as one second more, and I prolly would have tapped. Second round was all me. Blocked all his takedowns, and was hitting him with punches and head kicks all over the place. Good thing huges' stand up sucks. Third round was the same, and I knocked him out. I am now beginning the process of avoiding GSP for the rest of my career. |

... that's what I just said. It's not easy to counter that though. Usually ends up rolling back into guard.
Not sure. I got it being 30-4 with 9 KO of the night trophies, 5 Fight of the night trophies, all of the win streak trophies and the title. Nope. I didn't have level 3 on either of them. |

Lads this game is pretty average. Once you get over how it looks, the fact it's a good attempt at a UFC game, it's not worth buying. It would work as a boxing game, but the ground game clearly isn't finished. They've got on a good idea, but it isn't ready. When you take someone down it is far too unresponsive and based too much on luck on hitting the R3 rotating. The clinch and the ground game should be a serious button bashing battle, but they're both a matter of pretty much luck, they're too static. Maybe it's impossible to do that properly in a game, but maybe you shouldn't make a UFC game then? You can just hammerfist or punch a guy repeatedly with no stoppage, because the ground game is so static. It's punch-punch-punch, attempt transition, maybe it comes off. Pretty poor. The clinch is pathetic, not even worth talking about. You should be able to clinch a guy against the side and spend an entire round trying to land 3-4 clean punches or knees.
Flash knock-outs are fucking awful (I say this in favour or against me, I always feel short-changed). They happen far too often, better would be if the timing of a punch had the "rocked" animation much more often, rather than straight knock-outs. Right, if a guy steps in to an uppercut and gets knocked out, fine, but when a jab randomly chins a guy to death it's just stupid. Majorly disappointed in this game after the demo. It's a boxing game dressed up as UFC, regret buying it. |

I completely agree ECG. I was about to post that I played the games for a few hours with a buddy of mine and I was really disappointed in it. I mean, it's a decent game, but nothing special. I think the ground game controls are intuitive but really lacking. Jujitsu overall is lacking tbh.

You guys are entitled to your opinion but i've finally gotten the hang of the ground game (two weeks and some change of work) and it's incredibly intuitive. One you learn the motions, and have the rotations of the analog stick committed to memory, as well as what transitions to what, what technical counters can transition to what, it's incredibly responsive and eep.

There is not luck to the ground game if you are good at it both offensively and defensively.

Also, fighter attributes play a large part in flash KO's and ground game.

The only way I can see anyone having a gripe with the ground game or clinch is if they are not good at it and cant do anything when the fight goes there.
I agree about the flash KOs. I an a wizard on the ground in terms of transitions and ground and pound, but i cant for the life of me submot a guy and if i try to wear him down i end up knocking him out. |

The only real gripe I have about the ground game right now is that I can't for the life of me escape the back mount. I try to do the minor/major transitions, but it's not doing anything. Any particular direction I'm supposed to be doing to get out or do I just do all the ones I can before I get screwed and get tapped out?
I've lost 4 matches and countless sparring sessions because I can't out
