Wanna See Some EA UFC Demo Gameplay?

Kahlief Adams here Editor-in-Chief at TheSpawnPointBlog. EA UFC is absolutely one of the most anticipated titles for this year and after playing the demo tonight I have to say that my want for this game has gone through the roof.

This footage was captured on PS4

looks good. I have never played a UFC game and am a bit skeptical about it.

sourav933656d ago

The visuals look good, but some of the punching animations seemed robotic....

kahjah3656d ago

I felt this too, I'm hoping this got tuned in the final version.

gedden73656d ago

The ground n pound game looks awkward as hell. and the overall the animations look still and last gen... And superman punches are not that effective as they are in this game..

Looks ok as a game though. Looks like Fight Night Round MMA

gedden73656d ago

Wait nevermind did I just see a WWE Suplex??? nevermind I'm thru... this is an Arcade Game...

kahjah3656d ago

Another thing I hope they tune in the game, could be the demo, could be the difficulty level, could be style of game. Let's see if that changes.

Either way it was a lot of fun to play.

SuperBlur3656d ago

oh i see you haven't met Rustam , suplex is one of his specialties He only recently joined the ufc and he won his first ufc fight by suplexing the shit out of his opponent .

http://www.youtube.com/watc... at 3:12 for the ufc footage

now im not disagreeing with you because anything past middleweight is extremely uncommon to see suplex's and i do hope they tone it down

Seraphemz3656d ago (Edited 3656d ago )

A true MMA fan...nice.

I wonder why is was a 3 round fight if they announced Jones a the champ before the fight.

SuperBlur3656d ago

Seraph , i couldn't tell you .. every time i play the game ,either as jones or gust , it never goes the distance , even when the AI stamina is low , they just keep pushing and pushing and one punch to set them back has a high potential to T/KO them .. i tried to slow down the fight , targeting the body/legs when it happened and they'd just one punch ko me

and the annoying suplex .. i never seen so many of them from both gust and jones in their entire career

there is a major flaw in the ground mechanic.. if you're the one being sent to the mat , just press L3 once or twice , your character will get up and there is nothing the guy on top of you can do.

wannabe gamer3656d ago (Edited 3656d ago )

never watched mma i guess. it happens and will; happen more since its ya know a vidya game, what do you expect for the game to say no you have done that move once already so you cant do it again since that doesnt happen in a real fight.

ScottyHoss3656d ago (Edited 3656d ago )

edit: ahaha looks like a few guys beat me to it

FITgamer3656d ago

You obviously don't follow much MMA the suplex is very common.

There are no "thoughtful" ads in video games, EA

I think the only type of games that can gets away with it would be sport games, having those sponsors ads on the side like on real life.

But don't put freaking Doritos ads in Star Wars or something, it breaks the immersion. If it is a pop-up ads, then big no.

Hofstaderman20d ago

EA can thoughtfully eff themselves.

Makersbreath220d ago

EA coming back for the crown of being perceived as the worst company in gaming.

Chocoburger19d ago (Edited 19d ago )

One of my favorite series is the THPS franchise, and it was packed with ads, but it didn't bother me. Posters for skateboard companies, JEEP, and Nokia phones. It did sort of fit in with the game world, but that was the past, these days ad would be intentionally intrusive or unskippable loading screen type of imagery. Ugh, I know EA would do it in a horrible fashion. Screw them.

Report: Sexual Misconduct Investigation Conducted at EA, Suspects Named and What They Did Revealed

EA senior staff has been investigated for sexual misconduct involving female coworkers, and these said people have been named publicly.

isarai25d ago

Aye just call Phil, i mean he somehow made Bobby Kotick's scandal disappear and gave him a few million dollar high five on the way out.

Cacabunga25d ago

I wonder if it will be censored with some in game ads.

MrBaskerville23d ago (Edited 23d ago )

Microsoft did, Phil Spencer played a minor part. He instigated the buyout that led to Kotick escaping all his controversies while getting a golden handshake.

Someone on Twitter calculated that the people hired in Tango and Arkane Austin could get a decent salary for roughly 17 years for the money Kotick was paid.

InUrFoxHole22d ago

Yeah some thing tells me Kotics $ was already guaranteed before MS made the deal. As for the studios... Let's be honest here... none of those studios made system sellers.

XiNatsuDragnel25d ago (Edited 25d ago )

EA about to go down like Activision and then Phil saves the day saying.this is good for the industry and consolidation will help create competition. /s.

MrBaskerville23d ago

Then they shutdown Codemasters and studio behind Jedi Survivor.

Atleast they could hardly do much damage that EA hadn't allready done. EA has shut down most of their studios by now.

ravens5225d ago

What's up with all these horny creeps. You gon be horny, fine. Just not at work take care of that shit before you go in. Rub one out if you have to. Don't be a creep at all. ESPECIALLY at work. But don't be one AT ALL.

Extermin8or3_25d ago

I mean part of the issue is that things transpired outside of work....

MrBaskerville23d ago

That's the thing he mentioned about not being a creep at all.

KwietStorm_BLM25d ago

You think deviants care where they are? Work sometimes makes it an even better situation for them because they can abuse their power.

mudakoshaka24d ago

Nerds think they are Gods when they are making video games.

NotoriousWhiz25d ago (Edited 25d ago )

"it seems that according to EA, given the events transpired outside of work between two adults, and the fact that once investigation has started that the alleged perpetrators didn’t do it again, the investigation is considered closed. [...] The victim still has to work with the people that harassed her."

Yep, EA is disgusting.

Extermin8or3_25d ago

I mean the fact stuff happened outside of work puts EA in quite a difficult position legally. These women don't seem to have reported the matter to the police which kinda ties EA's hands on what they can do. If they don't file reports of the crimes then yeah from EA's perspective it is stuff that happened outside of work. The only exception is the guy that apparently referenced things in the slack channel for work, spending on what he said proving it may be very hard and he may well be able to get away with plausible deniability. I don't like EA and I think these people need to be dismissed but without any legal action being taken, EA can't really do much without risk of being sued themselves for unfair dismissal etc.

Well, anything to make those shareholders happy, I guess. They're all that matters in this industry nowadays.

badboyz0928d ago (Edited 28d ago )

EA stocks haven't been profitable in over 5yrs. They better hope Take-two don't get the FIFA license lol.
