I'm going to give my impressions from the video

the game speed seems to be too fast

punches/kicks seem not to do any real damage because the fighter just walks through them

dislike the animations

the commentary sounds dull

the exchanges look very unrealistic

EA UFC seems to lean more towards being an arcade MMA fighter instead of sim

Bonkerz3639d ago

I completely disagree, this game looks fantastic. If you know anything about UFC and MMA you would understand the weight class these 2 are in is highly based on speed. Every single fight that Pettis and ALdo have been in they obviously start WAY fast because that is an advantage against the opponent. They get fatigued after rounds and overall length of the fight, we dont get to see that because we only see some of 1st round.

Punch @ 3:30 and 4:10 had no impact

Kick @ 5:06 had no impact

sup with that

LOGICWINS3639d ago (Edited 3639d ago )

The game speeds up as the weight division goes up. It CAN be a little slower, but not by much. Remember, these are 155 pounders. Aldo and Pettis (in REAL LIFE) have are VERY quick strikers. Also, keep in mind that both fighters are fresh. Its only Round 1.

Its a videogame. Gamers aren't as cautious with takedowns/counters when they themselves won't get hurt.

Patience. Brian Hayes made it very clear that he wants the game to appeal to both casual and hardcore gamers. Casual/Sim modes will without a doubt make an appearance.

still looks like fun and the graphics are great. stuns look better too none of that super slow motion stuff.

Also like how the height differance looks natural.

As an mma fan I think this game looks great and I'm really looking forward to it. Can't wait!

LOL_WUT3639d ago

Wow those visuals definitely picking this up ;)

psplova3639d ago

Yes, as a MMA/boxing guy, I wholeheartedly agree. this looks pretty amazing. I figured that with Brian Hayes and the Fight Night talent working on this, it had potential, but wow... This looks incredible. Yes, some of the kicks that should have really done some damage, didn't so much, but this is a videogame and I'm sure there's a good reason for that too... I officially can't wait!

I like it can't wait for a demo to land!!!!

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

yeahokwhatever1361d ago

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

nowitzki20041361d ago

Go home and wait for Fight Night.

ActualWhiteMan1361d ago

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

MadLad1361d ago

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

Ok.

FlavorLav011361d ago (Edited 1361d 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

yeahokwhatever1361d 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.

zeroskie1361d ago

Same. I want another fight night so badly.

yeahokwhatever1361d 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.

nowitzki20041361d 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.
