Yup I’m buying a game for the GAMEPLAY, not the f’ing graphics. The gameplay looks the exact same as it did 3 years ago Just like FIFA, same old gameplay, few new features that could’ve been added as an update
I think they might speed up the fluidity of strikes so it doesn't feel slow later throughout the game. My favorite feature is probably the seamless submission it's so good. My flaws are just the speed of the strikes so they don't look robotic and the ground and pound. I saw fluid elbows and hammerfists so I hope it's there. Plus if there are options to different camera angles I'll be happy cuz I want it with that UFC 2 angle view Edit: It took me 11 hrs later to see the "Game not final" in the beginning. Smh
@who the fu*k is ‘that guy?They at least should bring back the ragdoll physics. Nothing was better than landing a knee on the chin and watching the other guy do a double backflip 😂
They definitely reused some of the animations, although hooks look a bit cleaner now IMO. Ragdoll KOs making a comeback? Hopefully. I like the whole damage system, the fighters face getting red in a submission hold is also a nice touch. They could lower the opacity of the tattoos, so it doesn't look like the fighters just came out of a tattoo studio. I wish they could add infrequent arm breaks in a kimura for example. That would add that nice oomph to an already cool submission. Also online career mode? Could be worrisome.
You gotta remember that some fighters have unique styles and will throw punches differently, so these might just be the best looking ones unfortunately. Hopefully not though.
I wish they would make a game mode similar to the Universe mode in the WWE games. It would be so fun creating narratives in the mma world, plus adding like scouting and external leagues in. It would be cool
Undisputed 3 and Ufc 2. ufc 2 was the best ea ufc game by far. Everything that came after was a maximum downgrade. It's a shame that they didn't orientate themselves from UFC 2. no words. No matter EA probably won't be the only studio making MMA games in the future
@XZETAR Agreed, and EA UFC 2 was the last one I consistently played and enjoyed. I just played online, great memories. But still, the grappling even on that game wasn't great. I always think though, what would certain games be like if they just continued to build on the foundation of past games. Like what would an Undisputed franchise be like now if they consistently made games every few years from Undisputed 3 (2012) to now? Just building and improving over the years.
This game honestly looks like a good improvement, and Im excited for it. UFC games are some of my favorite games, if not my favorite, but UFC 2 was the last one I really enjoyed. I think the best feature y'all have ever added in any of these titles has to be the seamless submissions, even though I love striking, since that has never been in an mma game to my knowledge, but Im a PC player. PC is just a completely better overall experience than console, and im not buyin a console just to be able to play this game, so I hope yall can release a version of it for PC.
Grappling has always been an issue. They always make something that looks great, but striking in the clinch and on the ground has always been an issue. Undisputed 3 always had striking system that has been very impactful. EA always made it limited. Hopefully that changes here as well as the hard impact slams. And the cage sits.
@INDIA SUPER CLEAN 🇮🇳 Ea avoids making PC ports due to them not having the funds to monitor cheating and hacking. Also alot of SFM models could be used to make adult content which would freak out the female fighters imo maybe some male fighters too.
I’m excited for this!!! I really like the ground game set up; for me it looks more fluid (plus I love BJJ) I also like the addition of Valentina in the Career mode! Overall I’m excited to play it!
My Initial reactions For the positives + Damage system looks great and I'm excited to see how deep this this mechanic is + Seemless submission looks really slick, hopefully it captures the fluidity of BJJ irl For the negatives - Why do all the fighters have the same body type? Look at Tony at 1:56 why does his body looks so square? Same with Do Bronx @ 2:02 & Valentina @ 3:37 . They all have the same, inaccurate square builds. - Gameplay wise (with the exception of the submission game), this...doesn't look that different than UFC 4??? It seems slower and more sluggish but idk, I don't see a big difference Overall, a mixed bag. Some of the improvements are welcome sights but honestly, I was hoping for more.
It's unlikely, but it would be really cool if for certain fighters their real life coaches accompanied them to the octagon and were on the side giving commentary. For example, Eugene Bareman coming out with Izzy and the rest of the ckb team and Khabib and Hasbulla coming out with Islam (I saw Hasbulla in the trailer, but i think it may have just been a trailer easter egg)
Yea but they also got that new engine, i wouldn’t be surprised if they had some of the employees who worked on the engine did some of the work too. Just helps is all
@matthewginther7382 don't forget, they brought such LOVED features like slow, clunky strike animations that only work in scripted combos, and everyone's favorite, the posture up timer! You know, so you can spend a whole 5 seconds raining down all the hell amd fury of a wet pool noodle on your opponents before the game forces you back to being tied up with the bottom opponent. No skill needed from the bottom player of course.
@Matthew Johnsonthey didn't though it's a known fact original devs of Frostbite don't even work for DICE/EA anymore same thing for all EA games that's why almost every Frostbite game that's released in the last 5 years has gotten horrible reviews
Ansioso para a chegada do UFC 5 , pois o 4 é um ótimo jogo , no UFC 5 espero que o modo carreira tenha mais nomes , pois ficar inventando nome é complicado 🤣🤣
Looks like an improvement but strikes and grappling transitions should be 2-3 times faster.Maybe it was slowed down in this trailer to showcase the visual fidelity and movement mechanics. Some of the visuals were very impressive, whereas other scenes looked last gen. I am assuming this video/Clip-Share stream engine, is not doing it full justice and It will look better when playable. The new grappling system should be a huge improvement to the ground game. Much more akin to Undisputed 3.Hopefully this is the game that everyone who cares for such things and enjoys MMA want It to be.
To clear up any misconceptions, they should have posted a single match from the game and let people take mental notes. I really want to see how the new system plays out in a match without having to wait until release.
1. What happens if you don't tap out, does the limb break? 2. Is it possible to choose among old fighters like Mark Coleman, Bas Rutten, Gary Goodridge etc? 3. Do the moves you can do reflect that particular fighter's strengths in real life? I kinda wish there was a Tekken system where you do advanced submissions by complicated button combinations (maybe it is like that, don't know; didn't look like it in the UI)
Looks great team! So pumped for this! The new damage system should balance out the cheese bulldog perk that allows people to walk forward eating shots with no consequences
The new engine looks good but I hope the striking system glows better than ufc 4 and not so stiff. Especially the wrestling, the takedowns were horrible in 4 so I hope it all flows alot better.
It looks like they spent the last 3 years porting the game to Frostbite and then focused their development time on flashy visuals that they can easily sell, while the gameplay and animation teams simply tweaked a few things from previous games and then called it done. I really hoped this would be the one to take a major step up, but all signs point to it being another hot, unsatisfying mess of an MMA game just like the rest of the EA UFC games since 2014. I mean, this video says it all… Better visuals, damage visuals/doctor stoppage, referee interactions, KO highlights… All of this is just presentation and for the most part was in Undisputed over a decade ago!!! Then they gloss over what should be the massively important submission system changes, which means that’s probably gonna be whack, while punches still lack any real impact, ground and pound looks terrible, there’s still an awful rag doll jankiness to reactions that makes it look and feel like you’re playing Human Fall Flat, none of the fighters feel unique, and it’s still using a load of old animations. Style vs Substance has been the mantra of this games development since EA took it over, and it’s just utterly depressing. I would give anything to see the series in the hands of another developer, but EA has the money to keep a hold of this forever, or at least until they can no longer be bothered to do the absolute bare minimum anymore and let it go. The UFC itself should be demanding more success from EA to retain the partnership (higher Metacritic score, higher sales, etc.) but it seems like everyone is somehow ok with this never becoming anything more than it is, and that in my opinion is a real f*cking tragedy.
Love what Im seeing personally. I have over 700 hours on UFC 3 alone, & return to undisputed 3 time to time. I skipped UFC 4 because I hated the way it looked & felt (thank EA for demo lol). The majority of my hours are offline, These games have always been a great anxiety/stress/anger reliever for me, especially since my spine injury, UFC 4s presentation was annoying to even look at, & felt about as fluid as cement & lacked quality implementations to justify a purchase. So maybe its unfair for me to judge since my point of comparison is UFC3 instead of 4; But still I appreciate what I see, more convincing than UFC4 was, Hope for a demo, As im curious ab the gameplay, especially with engine changes.
What I really want to know is will there be a comprehensive tutorial with special detail concerning the sub system and new implementations of this game?
I’ve been playing UFC 4 since launch I am so ready for a new game LETS GO! Edit:I am disappointed with the striking but very impressed with graphics and the ground game looks like its going to be good! 🏆
It looks hella fun, not worried about the animations cuz I had no problem with them in ufc 4, glad we get a better damage system, new submission game as well, im excited
@Sendit414 if they’re trash for u cool, they must not be for me cuz I have 36 days played on ufc 4, so trash for u, not for me as I said in my original comment, oh and I meant to say submission game not grounds game lol
Ground game looks beautiful. Striking looks slower. Graphics slightly buffed (which doesn’t matter to me) all we need now is more better / more versatile striking animations, faster pace gameplay and this would have potential for the best ufc game in a while
Visually, a massive improvement. But the gameplay mechanics are the EXACT same if not slower? I’m ngl you know they’re coping when they call ‘referee interactions’ a new feature.. EDIT: 2.1k, wow guys, lets start a movement !
Definitely looks a lot better, I like the way damage over time looks and the ground game looks a bit more fleshed out but other than that it doesn't seem like much has changed about striking, it's pretty much identical to 4 but whatever I'm just excited to play UFC on next gen.
Stand up is ufc 4 stand up they literally copy and pasted the biggest thing people wanted changed no character ID either so ngannou, izzy and moreno will all strike the same, behave the same its complete trash
Don’t expect a better game because I think the silent majority of young kids likes ufc 3 and 4 and they are very happy with improvement like « draw in online mode » (look that the comments). We are not that many to wait for a UFC 2 or even UFC undisputed 3 kind of comeback. But the fact they haven’t changed the animations for me it’s crazy.
Bro if they haven’t improved the striking I highly doubt this concept was even thought of. The game looks like ufc 4 with new skins and dr stoppages honestly so disappointing
@Dylan the striking animations are exactly the same as 4 which is super robotic & stiff, maybe some punches are slightly different but still a huge disappointment in the stand up game especially after 3 years
I think before the game gets released they should try and make the sweat coming off the fighters more like mist than water droplets, most games from ea are actually too smooth. The game needs to look rougher for it to give a realistic effect and to create different scenarios. I'd try to make the game a little more complex in the way you strike in the next coming ufc's something like using the right stick to throw a punch or kick, i mean not every punch should land just because the opponent isn't moving, something like making cuts in the eye increase the sensitivity or randomness to miss a punch too.
This is a game i would like to try before i buy, overall its the feel of the game that is gonna get me going yk, who knows? It probably did drastically change.
Here's to hoping career mode has some legit upgrades and feels like an actual fight week. Fighter odds, more interactive training but less training overall, press conferences, social media interaction etc. would seriously put UFC 5 at the top. (Obligatory "but it's EA soo..")
I think where they mess up is trying to make every punch and kick look like a balanced strike. It’s still too rigid and choreographed looking imo. I was hoping the striking would like more like fight night did.
I understand the criticism but I'm looking forward to checking it out. Personally I'm not happy until I we get another Fight Night, but until then I'm gonna make the best of it.
TBH awhile back there was an email sent to the developer’s staff or something like that saying they paused work on project moneyball I think it was called so that they can just focus on UFC 5 and signs pointed it being a new fight night so let’s hope that it really is
Looks good and I’m glad to hear the new mechanics such as draws, TKOs, and doctor stoppages. Hopefully career mode is way better and also the shorts on Conor look way too long.
Career mode will be the same offline basically. Only major changes they made were you can sim training now similar to FIFA and more social media challenges 🙄
@i love Latinas exactly at this point they rather just bring FIFA online or EAFC online, fifa has been a copy for many years nothing change, football games won't be any better than they already are.
@i love Latinasyeah, I’m a FIFA player as well, but at least in those games you can see the changes every 3 years. UFC has been the same since UFC 3… and they don’t release games every year.
Pros: New Submissions, doctor stoppages, ref interactions, draws. Cons: animations look almost identical to 4, Coach Davis (enough said), the ground and pound has not changed.
Cons: No character ID so everyone the same weight in a weight class, same clunky stiff striking style no matter what got tall players bending down to strike with shorter ones which isn't realistic kmt
Even if haters could get every single wish designed within a game they would still complain cause they don't know what they want. I'm grateful for every single UFC game. I just didn't like thay they tried to introduce ads during replays in UFC 4.
I thought we were getting ragdoll knockouts looks the same as ufc 4 but graphics and damage looks great the punches and kicks and ground and pound look the same as ufc 4 too
@Limitless Boy I know they had 3 years waited all that time only made a couple changes it's ashame when the old games are better starting from ufc 2 and back
Thank god I not the only one who noticed this kmt, same stiff clunky striking as ufc 4 literally copy and paste parts that require hard work to fix and fit in easier features for fluff they will ask for 100 for the game as well embarrassing, no wonder they won't release on PC they know no one would pay for it, it isn't worth the spend that's why, why not focus on making a game worth buying instead of trying to scam everyone, I hope this is last UFC game made under EA they are trash scammers now and fell off big time
3 years same striking animations sadly, but graphics do seem a lot better than 4 and grappling and damage system is nice. The cinematic replay reminds me of the fight night replays that’s a nice touch. I preordered this like a lil fan boy anyway so guess will wait and see🤣
Things they have to nail: Fighters feeling like the actually fighters your players with. Not just what their style looks like but how they actually act in the octogon. An actual "seamless" ground game. They say this every year and use this term every year. At least they admitted its been a minigame. If i can go into the octogon as izzy and am fighting yoel. I shouldn't be able to double leg yoel really at any point. This hasnt been true for the entire series.
Anyone wanna bet it’s pretty much UFC 4.5
You'd lose that bet
@Blue Cheese With Wings He won that, what was the difference 🤣
Yup
I’m buying a game for the GAMEPLAY, not the f’ing graphics. The gameplay looks the exact same as it did 3 years ago
Just like FIFA, same old gameplay, few new features that could’ve been added as an update
@BoyDiscoverwhat difference are you waiting for it's a UFC game. Go back and play call of duty
I think they might speed up the fluidity of strikes so it doesn't feel slow later throughout the game. My favorite feature is probably the seamless submission it's so good. My flaws are just the speed of the strikes so they don't look robotic and the ground and pound. I saw fluid elbows and hammerfists so I hope it's there. Plus if there are options to different camera angles I'll be happy cuz I want it with that UFC 2 angle view
Edit: It took me 11 hrs later to see the "Game not final" in the beginning. Smh
They should just remaster Ufc2
Exactly what I was thinking, strikes look slow as hell :(
@Razorstriking looks stiff and robotic.. nothing to do with realism. And the animation oh man wow is this bad
@who the fu*k is ‘that guy?They at least should bring back the ragdoll physics. Nothing was better than landing a knee on the chin and watching the other guy do a double backflip 😂
@ZETAR Right? It's annoyng because i think striking was slow at times in UFC 4, i was hoping for improvement but it looks worse 💀
They definitely reused some of the animations, although hooks look a bit cleaner now IMO. Ragdoll KOs making a comeback? Hopefully. I like the whole damage system, the fighters face getting red in a submission hold is also a nice touch. They could lower the opacity of the tattoos, so it doesn't look like the fighters just came out of a tattoo studio. I wish they could add infrequent arm breaks in a kimura for example. That would add that nice oomph to an already cool submission. Also online career mode? Could be worrisome.
Online carrer mode is announced it might be inside the game
some? more like all
You gotta remember that some fighters have unique styles and will throw punches differently, so these might just be the best looking ones unfortunately. Hopefully not though.
Yh this game is gonna flop so hard 😂😂😂
I wish they would make a game mode similar to the Universe mode in the WWE games. It would be so fun creating narratives in the mma world, plus adding like scouting and external leagues in. It would be cool
How can Undisputed 3 still be the best UFC game 11 years later? The grappling alone on that game absolutely blows EAs games out of the water.
Yes undisputed 3 is tuned up for max... control, gameplay
game was way ahead of its time fr
Undisputed 3 and Ufc 2. ufc 2 was the best ea ufc game by far. Everything that came after was a maximum downgrade. It's a shame that they didn't orientate themselves from UFC 2. no words. No matter EA probably won't be the only studio making MMA games in the future
@XZETAR
Agreed, and EA UFC 2 was the last one I consistently played and enjoyed. I just played online, great memories. But still, the grappling even on that game wasn't great.

Like what would an Undisputed franchise be like now if they consistently made games every few years from Undisputed 3 (2012) to now? Just building and improving over the years.
@Nomad yeah but the striking system in ufc 2 was just good👏🏻 fluid, fast, realistic.
This game honestly looks like a good improvement, and Im excited for it. UFC games are some of my favorite games, if not my favorite, but UFC 2 was the last one I really enjoyed. I think the best feature y'all have ever added in any of these titles has to be the seamless submissions, even though I love striking, since that has never been in an mma game to my knowledge, but Im a PC player.

Undisputed 3 always had striking system that has been very impactful. EA always made it limited. Hopefully that changes here as well as the hard impact slams. And the cage sits.
Way better. Undisputed 3 was the best out. With pride in it too
WHY NOT MAKE FOR PC ??????? 😡😡😡😡🤬 BOYCOTT EA SPORTS!!
What’s wrong with them, can you elaborate?
@INDIA SUPER CLEAN 🇮🇳 Ea avoids making PC ports due to them not having the funds to monitor cheating and hacking. Also alot of SFM models could be used to make adult content which would freak out the female fighters imo maybe some male fighters too.
I'm interested on how they do it this time around. Grappling on a controller is tough cause anything can happen, it's not robotic
I’m excited for this!!! I really like the ground game set up; for me it looks more fluid (plus I love BJJ)
I also like the addition of Valentina in the Career mode!
Overall I’m excited to play it!
My Initial reactions
For the positives
+ Damage system looks great and I'm excited to see how deep this this mechanic is
+ Seemless submission looks really slick, hopefully it captures the fluidity of BJJ irl
For the negatives
- Why do all the fighters have the same body type? Look at Tony at 1:56 why does his body looks so square? Same with Do Bronx @ 2:02 & Valentina @ 3:37 . They all have the same, inaccurate square builds.
- Gameplay wise (with the exception of the submission game), this...doesn't look that different than UFC 4??? It seems slower and more sluggish but idk, I don't see a big difference
Overall, a mixed bag. Some of the improvements are welcome sights but honestly, I was hoping for more.
look at Ali short hands lol 4:00
@Bogdan Shoshynbruh 💀
Ali ain't floating like a butterfly with that linebacker ahh build
It's unlikely, but it would be really cool if for certain fighters their real life coaches accompanied them to the octagon and were on the side giving commentary. For example, Eugene Bareman coming out with Izzy and the rest of the ckb team and Khabib and Hasbulla coming out with Islam (I saw Hasbulla in the trailer, but i think it may have just been a trailer easter egg)
Bad take
In UFC 2 greg jackson can be heard in Jones,Cerrone and GSPs side
Grappling looks great, the impact of strikes also looks like it improved. I’m curious to see how the game feels to play.
UFC 4 was 3 years ago. We can wait to have a great game 3 years later, a lot of work.
But don't forget, it's EA...
It's just going to be UFC 4 on a different engine, with like 3 new features, but 5 older features made worse... but it's on Frostbite!
Yea but they also got that new engine, i wouldn’t be surprised if they had some of the employees who worked on the engine did some of the work too. Just helps is all
@matthewginther7382 don't forget, they brought such LOVED features like slow, clunky strike animations that only work in scripted combos, and everyone's favorite, the posture up timer!

Yea it'll be fun seeing the ref step in multiple times to really break up the fun gameplay, ref stoppages are realistic but stupid in game
That's all clear. We are waiting for UFC 6
I have a prediction for UFC 6. Same game still 😭
Have to since there's no PC version 😂
Or they can turn on the ufc 2 server, then I will play ufc 2 again 😂
@Zetar Promotionyes, so sad they turned off
been waiting for UFC 5 since UFC 4 release, didn't turn out so well...
I can't be the only guy who feels like they've taken a huge step back in the graphics department with this one
Yup looks worse or the same as ufc 4 at best.
In FIFA, when introduced, frostbite made the game look good up close but worse when looking from afar
Your blind if you think this and I’m the biggest critic of this franchise.
@EverythingEVE3:22 , you saying that looks like conor?
I love how they demonstrated the combat with real events. Connor getting calf kicked, Dustin’s ko with Gaethje’s high kick.😀 It made me smile.
1. What happens if you don't tap out, does the limb break? 2. Is it possible to choose among old fighters like Mark Coleman, Bas Rutten, Gary Goodridge etc? 3. Do the moves you can do reflect that particular fighter's strengths in real life?
I kinda wish there was a Tekken system where you do advanced submissions by complicated button combinations (maybe it is like that, don't know; didn't look like it in the UI)
Looks great team! So pumped for this! The new damage system should balance out the cheese bulldog perk that allows people to walk forward eating shots with no consequences
Always Love the Behind the Scenes Clips 🔥
Bro I actually really liked that seamless submission system looks so smooth and flowy
brooo it looks so clean
@EmanAve right? Ea actually did something really good here and I am impressed.
I hope it ain't robotic and timed elsewhere on the ground tho. Hopefully clinching and cage clinching is better. List goes on
@Thawhid yea true I hope they have freshened up the animations just a bit
Their are gonna be people just abusing it.
The cinematic KO’s and referee interactions looks good. UFC 4.5 I’ll wait to play this one on game pass
Same it looks like recycled 💩
ufc 5 will be on game pass?
@Ankal maybe on ea play but not sure. but one can hope !
4.5? More like ufc 3.5.2😂
Looks gorgeous! I can't wait!
This looks incredible. Game play looks so good. Sub system looks awesome.
Wooooooooow. It looks great. The hair physics and submission game is great. Also, the referee involvement is a great input.
The new engine looks good but I hope the striking system glows better than ufc 4 and not so stiff. Especially the wrestling, the takedowns were horrible in 4 so I hope it all flows alot better.
It looks like they spent the last 3 years porting the game to Frostbite and then focused their development time on flashy visuals that they can easily sell, while the gameplay and animation teams simply tweaked a few things from previous games and then called it done.

Perfectly said.
📍
Couldn’t of said it better
Yup, said it all man... the only way to change this is boycotting EA until they bankrupt
they do the same with fifa, nhl and other franchises. it is so EA
Yeah this looks like a much much improved UFC game!! Can’t wait to play it!
Love what Im seeing personally. I have over 700 hours on UFC 3 alone, & return to undisputed 3 time to time. I skipped UFC 4 because I hated the way it looked & felt (thank EA for demo lol).

Get a job
What I really want to know is will there be a comprehensive tutorial with special detail concerning the sub system and new implementations of this game?
I’ve been playing UFC 4 since launch I am so ready for a new game LETS GO!
Edit:I am disappointed with the striking but very impressed with graphics and the ground game looks like its going to be good! 🏆
Just keep playing UFC 4, this is basically an updated version of that game it isn't a new one nothing new about it
@hank fradieryou didn’t watch the trailer then lmao
@ZIGGYfr they literally redid the entire ground system idk why ppl are saying it's a reskin of ufc4
It looks hella fun, not worried about the animations cuz I had no problem with them in ufc 4, glad we get a better damage system, new submission game as well, im excited
not a better damage system. Not a new ground game just a new submission system. You had no problem with the trash ko's?
I didn't have a problem with them either
@Sendit414 if they’re trash for u cool, they must not be for me cuz I have 36 days played on ufc 4, so trash for u, not for me as I said in my original comment, oh and I meant to say submission game not grounds game lol
Simp 😂
Ground game looks beautiful. Striking looks slower. Graphics slightly buffed (which doesn’t matter to me) all we need now is more better / more versatile striking animations, faster pace gameplay and this would have potential for the best ufc game in a while
Love the new damage system
I hope we can still have drama and heated rivalry in career mode. that was fun
Visually, a massive improvement. But the gameplay mechanics are the EXACT same if not slower? I’m ngl you know they’re coping when they call ‘referee interactions’ a new feature..
EDIT: 2.1k, wow guys, lets start a movement !
Graphics are terrible
@MMA NUT Would still consider it an improvement though
The grappling looks amazing to me, it gives me a reason to actually use wrestlers now
I hope there's more customization options for created fighters like wingspan.
caf broken enough as is wingspan would open an entire new can of worms
Definitely looks a lot better, I like the way damage over time looks and the ground game looks a bit more fleshed out but other than that it doesn't seem like much has changed about striking, it's pretty much identical to 4 but whatever I'm just excited to play UFC on next gen.
Gives me a ufc 3 vibes but better mechanic and more advance and i love it!
Looks stunning! Cant wait!!!
The frostbite looks really good. The standup looks very similar to UFC 4. No more mini games on the ground!
@lawn gnomewhy would they add a rival company to a ufc game? They already got the wfc
They added easier feints by the look of it when they used Chito which I liked
@lawn gnome Thats like the equivalent of adding Aew on a WWE my career this doesn't make any sense
Stand up is ufc 4 stand up they literally copy and pasted the biggest thing people wanted changed no character ID either so ngannou, izzy and moreno will all strike the same, behave the same its complete trash
@hank fradier yeah it’s. Really annoying, I really want pereira to have his signature left hook and Strickland to have Philly shell
Don’t expect a better game because I think the silent majority of young kids likes ufc 3 and 4 and they are very happy with improvement like « draw in online mode » (look that the comments). We are not that many to wait for a UFC 2 or even UFC undisputed 3 kind of comeback.
But the fact they haven’t changed the animations for me it’s crazy.
I think this game looks really good. Iv played all the other ufc games. Im looking forward to playing it. Im hoping career's mode is better tho.
A story career mode like hunter story in fifa would be very cool i hope they do it someday
Looks great and it would be perfect if you keep working on the striking. Please EA make the dream of the perfect mma game become reality ❤
Never played these games but this looks quite amazing, will be buying this for sure
I hope we also get interview options like we had in the UFC Undisputed games.
Bro if they haven’t improved the striking I highly doubt this concept was even thought of. The game looks like ufc 4 with new skins and dr stoppages honestly so disappointing
The damage system looks good 👀 hopefully this doesn't feel to much like 4
It looks exactly like 4 lol
he didnt say how it looked though. he said feels@Dylan
@Dylan the striking animations are exactly the same as 4 which is super robotic & stiff, maybe some punches are slightly different but still a huge disappointment in the stand up game especially after 3 years
I think before the game gets released they should try and make the sweat coming off the fighters more like mist than water droplets, most games from ea are actually too smooth. The game needs to look rougher for it to give a realistic effect and to create different scenarios. I'd try to make the game a little more complex in the way you strike in the next coming ufc's something like using the right stick to throw a punch or kick, i mean not every punch should land just because the opponent isn't moving, something like making cuts in the eye increase the sensitivity or randomness to miss a punch too.
this looks excellent! can’t wait!!
This is a game i would like to try before i buy, overall its the feel of the game that is gonna get me going yk, who knows? It probably did drastically change.
There was no better feeling than ko in ufc 2. They need to bring that punchy feeling back man. Every jab that Landed, u felt it in ur hand
My life is literally on hold when this game comes out.
Here's to hoping career mode has some legit upgrades and feels like an actual fight week.
Fighter odds, more interactive training but less training overall, press conferences, social media interaction etc. would seriously put UFC 5 at the top.
(Obligatory "but it's EA soo..")
I hope the gameplay just feels smooth and there's no Input delays whatsoever like UFC 4
Looks promising. Just hope the actual gameplay is there
The frostbite looks really good. The standup looks very similar to UFC 4. No more many games on the ground!
I think where they mess up is trying to make every punch and kick look like a balanced strike. It’s still too rigid and choreographed looking imo. I was hoping the striking would like more like fight night did.
Can’t wait man I’m so excited I might get it if I have enough..
hopefully we get the beta a few days after this trailer 🙏🏽
I’ve been waiting for the beta so bad
How have you commented on this 3 hrs ago when this dropped 1 hrs ago
@BYFC MEMES AND MMA I commented during the countdown lol
put the game on pc
@StrataisFunny that’ll be great too. They should put it on pc and make it cross platform.
We need the game to play and look like it did for the cinematics
Always excited for new conbat games. I want a new fight night game ffs! 🙏
I just wanna wait for the career mode!
Looks pretty good to me can’t wait to play
The models of the fighters look so smooth and realistic,cant wait
Looks crazy 👀🔥🔥🔥
Man I’m nervous for this based off the recent leaks but hoping we see something goodd
Ufc 4.5
Hope the leaks were pre alpha
@RAKAVmost likely
The awesome graphics are enough for me😂
as excited as i am i hope they still have time to update the animations cos it looks the same to me just more fluid
I understand the criticism but I'm looking forward to checking it out. Personally I'm not happy until I we get another Fight Night, but until then I'm gonna make the best of it.
TBH awhile back there was an email sent to the developer’s staff or something like that saying they paused work on project moneyball I think it was called so that they can just focus on UFC 5 and signs pointed it being a new fight night so let’s hope that it really is
So excited for this game!!!!!!
Looks good and I’m glad to hear the new mechanics such as draws, TKOs, and doctor stoppages. Hopefully career mode is way better and also the shorts on Conor look way too long.
Career mode will be the same offline basically. Only major changes they made were you can sim training now similar to FIFA and more social media challenges 🙄
Excited for ufc 4!!!!! 😅 can't wait for ufc 6
So… we’ve been waiting 3+ years for this? C’mon, man 🤦
FIFA fans wait every year and all they get is the crowd with different clothes 😹
@i love Latinas exactly at this point they rather just bring FIFA online or EAFC online, fifa has been a copy for many years nothing change, football games won't be any better than they already are.
@i love Latinasyeah, I’m a FIFA player as well, but at least in those games you can see the changes every 3 years. UFC has been the same since UFC 3… and they don’t release games every year.
Horrible! It's worse than UFC 4
I have no doubt that we will experience a great fighting feeling with the Frostbite game engine.
😂🤣🤣🤣
No you won’t
The KO camera looks insane 😮
Okay, I was worried for a bit but this is slick and subtle improvement. Color me impressed, I will pre order
You're satisfied by "subtle improvement"?
@lexorcism Gamers having standards challenge impossible
This transitions look way better hopefully they added more submissions
Pros: New Submissions, doctor stoppages, ref interactions, draws.
Cons: animations look almost identical to 4, Coach Davis (enough said), the ground and pound has not changed.
coach davisK
I think they added elbow hits on ground pound so it’s very slightly different
Cons: No character ID so everyone the same weight in a weight class, same clunky stiff striking style no matter what got tall players bending down to strike with shorter ones which isn't realistic kmt
Bro the coach davis thing is so stupid. Also, imagine if valentina loses today. Wouldnt that be weird af
Cons: GRAPHIC LIKE CARTOON
I am actually so hyped
Can never please people this looks amazing can’t wait
Even if haters could get every single wish designed within a game they would still complain cause they don't know what they want.
I'm grateful for every single UFC game. I just didn't like thay they tried to introduce ads during replays in UFC 4.
Masterpiece of all MMA Games
"It really gave me those feelings of stepping into the cage" I don't believe there's a script Daniel Cormier would not read for a dollar.
The blood and cuts actually is what I wanted
I thought we were getting ragdoll knockouts looks the same as ufc 4 but graphics and damage looks great the punches and kicks and ground and pound look the same as ufc 4 too
They sell the same shitty game for 100 bucks.
@Limitless Boy I know they had 3 years waited all that time only made a couple changes it's ashame when the old games are better starting from ufc 2 and back
@Matthew Joffrion exactly
@Matthew Joffrioncouldn't be more correct👍👍
Definitely an upgrade from UFC 4. Its looking like a W
We want brutal k.o like ufc 2 , best physics, And new moves 👍🏾
It don’t look that bad tbh can’t wait for it
Looks pretty good, punches still look a bit weightless
Put on your glasses, it looks like a cartoon mobile game, PS3 graphics. The fighting is robotic and stiff like UFC4 big flop
This looks so dam good 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Let’s go. This looks awesome glad there’s more gore and better ground game and damage and they added draws this is crazy
😂
Narrator's voice... "They didn't"
ground and pound is still the fucking same
I already pre-ordered the Deluxe Edition. too late lol
@Ruze Vidasame brother. We are in this together
This is a step up I’m happy for it
Looks great hope it feels great!
Using Connor for the leg kick part and Tony for the doctor stoppage made me chuckle.
Looks good very excited for it
Amazing Trailer as real as it GETS
UFC 4.5 looking good!
Thank god I not the only one who noticed this kmt, same stiff clunky striking as ufc 4 literally copy and paste parts that require hard work to fix and fit in easier features for fluff they will ask for 100 for the game as well embarrassing, no wonder they won't release on PC they know no one would pay for it, it isn't worth the spend that's why, why not focus on making a game worth buying instead of trying to scam everyone, I hope this is last UFC game made under EA they are trash scammers now and fell off big time
Horrible! It's worse than UFC 4
I thought they were showing gameplay from ufc 4. And this is ufc 5😂
@Dag dalnoboy 😂😂😂
3 years same striking animations sadly, but graphics do seem a lot better than 4 and grappling and damage system is nice. The cinematic replay reminds me of the fight night replays that’s a nice touch. I preordered this like a lil fan boy anyway so guess will wait and see🤣
Things they have to nail:
Fighters feeling like the actually fighters your players with. Not just what their style looks like but how they actually act in the octogon.
An actual "seamless" ground game. They say this every year and use this term every year. At least they admitted its been a minigame.
If i can go into the octogon as izzy and am fighting yoel. I shouldn't be able to double leg yoel really at any point. This hasnt been true for the entire series.
