My issues with ufc 3 1. stamina. 2. submission are to easy. 3. thia clinch is a automatic rock if you get hit with a knee or elbow. 4. if you get knocked down you most likely can't recover. 5. The judging system i won fights i should have lost and lost fights i should have won. 6. knockout animations.

I am truly sick and tired of running into people who abusively spam the fuck out of my fighter without ever getting tired. I 100% agree with your opinion and I think the stamina problem should be fixed.

Agreed completely but I also want the ability to cover myself with water in between rounds to have time to regain more stamina like Yoel Romero, make it happen EA do it for gay Jesus.

That Ngannou knockout last night though.... now that looked like a video game

The game is kinda like 50/50 you wait for them to waste stamina but your forgetting one shot can rock you and in this game you can get koed unexpectedly, but i agree with you.

Fight night champion is still beating UFC at everything.

Jesus Christ it takes you forever to get to the point

EA needs to hear this. Right now.

EA SPORTS!!! Please HIRE MARTIAL for work!!! he's just soo smart about game logics and skillfull human being!!

You already know i agree with you on this topic. Too many players get away with this. Also I don't know if it's me but stunning someone with a body kick doesn't really happen to often opposed to rocking someone to the head.

I agree with the Stamina, it definitely drains when you are careless but there isn't much of a punishment for it and it would be very interesting to see that in the Game. I also would like to point out how bad the controls feel, I'm sure in time they will be something that shouldn't be too hard to adjust to but they do not feel natural at all. Also, I would really like to have the opponents stamina/health bars turned off. Even if this is only available offline, this is so easy to develop and it would force the players to pay close attention to your opponents body language. The impact of this would be positively magnified if they also made a sanction for gassing out. Hopefully EA take note.

*Big glitch I noticed that is game breaking.* Sometimes when you're on the bottom in half guard and your opponent is raining strikes down on you postured up, you can't transition. It won't let you. It just like freezes. Sometimes it won't even let you block. So you end up just getting pounded out. I kept wondering why I was beating people so easy from half guard posturing up ground and pound, until it happened to me a few times. You see the transitions available but they are greyed out and you cant do them no matter which one you try. You're totally frozen. There are other positions it happens too in like back mount, and maybe others im forgetting. But halfguard posture up is the worst. Needs to be fixed. Please relay this the devs, even though I'm sure they know about it by now, but you never know. Thanks.

i don't understand why nate diaz has a question mark kick. he barely throws any kicks at all and i cannot recall him ever throwing that kick

The speed of certain punch combos are broken, you can throw 1212 in about .5 seconds to do massive damage

Green health - Fast, fluid and strong Yellow health - Slower, more loose, weaker Red health - Stationary, sloppy technique, drained of energy Flashing health - weak grappling, weak clinch, strikes cause more damage regardless of blocking.

I don't like the "bubble" around the fighters. It seems like the more I come forward the better my opponent gets at backpedalling. You shouldn't be able to out run a fighter coming forward while running backwards. Get a fighter pinned against the fence and suddenly none of your punches land. Or the fact that the AI catches EVERY single body kick, no matter where in a combo you hide it. Skipping this one too. tried SO hard o like it. Just can't. Making head movement control lunges is stupid. Or how about FOUR buttons to throw a spinning back kick? No thanks EA.

Feels like every fighter in this game has infinite stamina. Nothing but aggression with no consequences

I completely understand you Martial Mind, I haven't played UFC 3 yet but what I can say is that in UFC 2 my main game plan was to wait until my opponent gasses out because I know then he can move around but one hit and he will be out for sure. When it's true that in UFC 3 it's more easy to come away without getting hit I will have some hard times

Throw away the entire UFC 3 , supplement the foot work and head movement from 3 onto UFC 2, make the stamina adjustments you talked about and there you have it the game everybody actually wanted

PLEASE READ MARTIAL! I’m putting this Comment in a Pros and Cons form. Pros: 1. Gameplay Feels very realistic. 2. Fighters Feel True To Life. 3. The Pace Feels Smooth But A Little Clumsy. 4. Online it seems as though you and your opponents can share the left side of the screen based on your camera settings? Like Fight Night Champion, if so that’s a big plus cause we grow used to the side we play on offline? Lol... NOW HERE GOES MY ISSUES with UFC 3?! CONS: 1. I think the game takes too much control from the player. 2. It’s too hard to tell when you can hit your opponent. 3. Punches are not accurate enough, for example the jab is weak and moves at the same speed of a hook or a cross, that’s not realistic?! A jab should be faster than a cross and a cross should be faster than a hook or a kick? 4. The defense doesn’t match the danger of the strikes and the game in general. 5. Perks expires now, if so micro transactions are gonna kill the potentials of how great this game can really be, especially if they fix your stamina issue?! Lol... 6. It’s not offering enough options to truely make your fighter unique in create a fighter like you were talking about in your UFC U 3 video?! 7. A lagger can destroy you easy in Stand up and on the ground! Smh... 8. It’s no option for players to go back to the old controls, I think that’s an issue because old controls allowed you to throw unique punches and be a little unconventional like FNC. Thank you if you made it this far and sorry for the book bro, but I think this is a conversation we should have?! Lol... Max respect Martial and thanks for being a player we love to see and discussing the issues we care about, great video bro! 😉👍🏽

Am I the only person that don't like the weaving , because I rather have it the old way on that

Is stamina really the only issue with this game? Because there's clearly way more problems with this crappy game

Another thing is the refs need to actually get in the way and stop the fight that shit pisses me off how they still don’t have it like that

I'm a wrestler and boy oh boy when you realize that you're opponent is tired, you know he has 1 min tops until you end him, and when you realize that you're tired you're in panic mode. Everything that Martial said is FACTS!!!!!!

These things are sort of unrelated, but here’s some things I wish were possible/EA would consider along with this: 1. Pride mode with Pride rules and strikes/moves. Include the classic fighters like Cro Cop, The Nogueiras, Wanderlei, Hendo etc. (Don’t know if Rampage or Fedor could be included b/c of contracts with Bellator but they would be awesome too.) 2. EA using the mobile Game Face to add your likeness into the game. 3. More customizable walkout music. Maybe partner with a streaming service or something, or allow certain songs to be loaded on there like previous 2K games did. 4. Multiple broadcasters. Anik and Rogan of course, but I’d like to hear guys like DC and Felder, they’d probably be awesome with voice work. Obviously prevent them from calling their own fights though.

Fuck UFC 3. When's EA making another Fight Night?

It's a game. It only needs to mimic real life to a certain point. It doesn't matter if it's 100% exactly like real life. Real life doesn't always make a better experience.

I'm sorry but if your biggest problem in the game is the stamina you're in-denial about the absolutely awful and unrealistic movement, striking and grappling animations. As someone who always rants about animations and combinations, you shouldn't be worried about the stamina with the flawed animations. I've had a vast winning streak just from broken jab straights and no one can land.

They could make the KOs more realistic

They messed up Kevin Lees record and the footwork in the beta is awful

You are absolutely spot on hopefully EA listen to your thoughts on the subject, I can only think they have to system set up the way it currently is to cater for the casual players that don't want to take their time and want to swing from the first bell to the last.

So glad you spoke out about this foolishness.. Hopefully they sort this shit out

I want them to fix the game face, and add more created fighter options, like customizing your body.

I hate the controls

I love how in Fight Night Champion when you get gassed your boxer starts throwing labored punches, movement gets slower, each shot you eat becomes more damaging and you can actually hear the boxer huffing & puffing. It makes you think twice before going all out trying to finish your opponent in the next fight.

as someone who trains in bjj this felt like more of a cardio motivational video. i felt like you were telling me to get my ass up and go for a run. love it man!

Fight night Champion still the best most realistic fighting game of all time

Brother the real problem is the delayed reaction to kicks I kick high and he kicks a second later?????? The delay is the Achilles heel.

I definitely agree and anyone who wants this game to resemble actual MMA fights should support this as well. The one thing I hope they DON"T change however that I have seen numerous players complain about is the ability for a gassed or rocked fighter to still be dangerous. Strikes should be slower and more sloppy yes, but if you recklessly come in for the kill and I land a big sloppy looping overhand-right right on the button you should most definitely get hurt from that. We have seen that happen a ton over the years in MMA. Speed, technique, and even power to a certain extent should be penalized for low stanima/rocked state but big slow shots should still hurt a lot if you're too reckless coming in.

You are right man, I once got tired in a boxing match and it got to the point where getting hit felt less bad than throwing punches myself, I was too exhausted. Just stood there like a sitting duck and got taken out with a liver shot. When your stamina is all gone, so is your will to win or even move.

If this going to be the final ufc3 game, this game is going to flop 👎the controllers are way too difficult, the robotic movements, for a new customer. We are used to it because we've been playing all the ufc games. But I doubt eady get new fans. Just in my opinion.

yea thats such a big problem, buut man the ai have to be better aswell . i can win with everybody against everybody using only lowkicks on f'cking legendary. that has to get fixed.

There's one thing missing from this that could be taken into consideration for future videos, that is, how lower stamina affects fighters on the ground and in the clinch. If this new stamina system (which I agree with) were to be implemented in stand up fighting, it is also important to note how it can affect other aspects of fighting as well. Just some food for thought!

I agree with every point you made bang on.Loving the game so far the striking is so much better.really hope they make the changes you suggested.keep up the good work man

This game is just not good I can't play it for more than 15 minutes at a time. To Arcady for my taste and although the movement is tons better than ufc2 it feels like there on roller skates. Idk I'm just not feeling it

EA are known for ruining games with updates after release so be careful what you wish for. It's ok for you because you're a slow paced fighter. If they make low stamina have even more negative affects then every one will HAVE to fight a similar style, and aggressive fighters will get dominated (which is not always the case irl)

You are SO right Martial. This and the way the fights end has always felt horrible in this series. EVERYONE knows the fight isn’t over until the Ref steps in to throw you off/stop it. Other things about KO’s and TKO animations could be better, but until the Ref actively stops the fight, the KO/TKO mechanic will always feel horribly awkward and un satisfying.

I disagree because the punching and kicking becomes significantly slower when ur energy is low, even with Nate Diaz

Would of been cool if they had a setting for the old controls

Martial.. Please please make a tutorial on how to counter jab spammers In UFC 3.. UFC 2 noobs are bringing their cheese to UFC 3 now..

Nice vid mate - They did at least have the slow down in UFC 2 - I have noticed when your body is low or legs are low and hurt then you go slow but nothing is affected from being fatigued. Surely they will bring it in before release!

Keep up the good work. Make sum more videos on fight night round 5. Keep pressing them for a new verson or a remaster of fight night champs

game needs a lot of fixing

Its too slow, buttons are way too complicated (took me half hour to find out how to work a flying knee and btw there the slowest thing on the game I hate that im debating to get this ive been waiting so long for a ufc 3 hopefully it gets patched by the release

Fantastic points. Liked and shared with the official UFC 3 facebook page. Hopefully something comes of it.

Amazing video Martial Mind!

UFC 2 is way better,and way more fun the beta sucks really bad and I hate those meters put that body indicator back on way better u can tell when ur getting hurt and put the stand up controls the same as ufc 2 just make the fights fight how the real people fight but same controls

What U said just happened with Aldo and halloway last night

Good video martial mind. I really hope they address this issue

I have a few issues with the game I thought I’d share. First I think the game is a huge improvement striking wise. To the millions of people saying it looks tacky or too arcade like you have to play it to feel how smooth it is. Now for the negatives: As a jujitsu guy I’m always looking for takedowns striking to grappling transitions etc. I feel almost jipped that it’s the same poor grappling system as last years title. I wasted literally an entire round trying to escape a back clinch being denied OVER and OVER in the same animation. Also the same two variations for standard takedowns and the same two variations for the signature takedown as last year. Which the animations are horrible for maybe with the exception of the step around single leg. It’s not realistic. And it really infuriates me that the only time you can do signature character takedowns is if your opponent has low stamina or is rocked. But some how when they’re rocked they ALWAYS get away.... which is my next point. If an opponent is stunned or has been rocked multiple times their equilibrium is obviously disrupted.. that being said they shouldn’t be able to quickly back pedal getting just enough time to recover and catch me and stun me when I’m trying to finish... I hope to god some how this gets worked out leading to the release. I understand the casual fan is all about wars and striking matches. But what about the diehards that want the whole package?

Let's face it, the developers don't actually know shit about MMA. They need to recruit people that actually know anything about MMA into their team.

Martial?! How did you liked FRANCIS ko yesterday?! :D

Agreed of course, but sadly, given how they still think the ground game is fine the way it is, as well as the clinch, with the whole "transition faking" thing, I don't think realism is what they're after. Would love to hear a comprehensive summary on your thoughts on the game, now that the beta is out. Everything you like, dislike, about each facet of the game, definitely more so than just fight videos. Looking forward to it.

Very good point agree 100% Also add that fatigue with the submission game

UFC 3 makes me appreciate UFC 2. That tells you just how bad this game is.

Agree with you martial, a perfect exemple is Nate Diaz beating one of the best striker in MMA ( McGregor ) cause he was gassed out ! And Diaz is not super technical he is 100 % wreckless

I 100 percent agree with you martial my only question to you would be how would you go about the comeback sequences. Example say a certain fighter is winning the fight but then the other fighter connects a brutal shot towards the end of the fight that ends the fight.

Please can everyone share this video. This would really fix the biggest stamina issue for the game. Thank you Martial , I’ve literally wanted slower technical fights for the longest time.

I hate when they leg kick you when the round starts

Ufc 2 is more fun

Agreed Bro... And I would like a better reaction time for ground and pound offense and defense. A normal person wouldn't just sit there on top because his skills in ground and pound are low. they can just reduce his power but no point in making it a slower reaction time.

I agree 100%. I also think it would be awesome if you were allowed one “second wind” for example.... when your gassed out, you are able to engage a second wind, maybe a 25 second window of extra stamina to push and try to win the fight.... I think that would be a cool feature. Good video MM

Well don't you have connections with the people at EA who work on the game? Can you not just like tell em about these problems, I don't know why they wouldn't listen... also when you're at it just also tell them about the ko animations and how they need to go back to ufc 2..

UFC 3 is the biggest disappointment since Mafia 3. Smh

Great video!! Would love another video with what else you dislike and dislike about UFC 3. Everything you said is on point. I’ve lose 5-6 fights to the judges. My opponent would throw over 300-400 punches/kicks and barley land 120. Such a low percentage. They’re dead tired by the 3rd/5th round. I’ll have half to almost half my stamina and get knocked out if pressuring him. I average 250-300 thrown attack’s a game with at least 45% or higher landing. Not the best, but when they are spamming your kind of forced to spam and take chances.

Martial Mind i love and i agree with you on that. But what i would also like to see is when you're ground and pounding your opponent and when he is ko'd then the ref should jump in not just stand there and be like "stop" and waving his arms around i would really love that animation. And also the k.o. animation they just did them like it was on EA SPORT UFC 1.

Don’t like this game

I completely agree. I thought that they implemented or considered implementing movement fatigue when I saw fighters pause when getting blasted by leg kicks. I think in a game like UFC we definitely need to let people know the risk vs reward factor. Make the takedowns slower, reactions slower, offense slower, etc. Make things like leg kicks and body kicks greatly affect the way a fighter is to move and react. I’m glad they did implement checking kicks and allowed people to understand the consequences of not checking kicks, because some players just love to brawl and don’t care what’s coming their way. There should be a system based on your cardio that is effected by strikes that land vs strikes that miss, the amount of movement a fighter may typically move around in a ring (ex: Cruz moves around a lot more in the cage than a guy like Accauncao so make it more realistic of how often a fighter can travel in the cage), body shots, leg kicks, shots to the head and grappling significantly impacting the way a fighter is able to recover or slow down and the amount of submission attempts you go for (ex: If fighters continuously chase guillotine chokes in MMA they are likely to gas their arms out meaning less dangerous chokes and less effective punches).

Well said I haven't had much experience with the later rounds but you are definietly correct about the speed they should significantly slow down

My problem is the knockdowns when someone gets knocked down at any moment you should be able to capitalize ... not when there laying there dead

Nice vid bro, i think leg strikes speed is too slow, but jab-straight sometimes too fast.

The stamina aspect can absolutely be improved. With that said, no matter my opponent, I adapt. Even with the most aggressive of fighters, I just focus more on capitalizing on my counter striking. And it pays off for me EVERY time. I personally can't complain, as countering is my fav'.

You make a really good point here. I hope they implement some kind of fatigue mechanic before release but I doubt it. I've been a fan of MMA for years. I've trained kickboxing and jiu jitsu for 7 years now and I know that when fatigue really hits you, you're fucked. That should be reflected in the game.

MARTIAL please do how to counter punch video asap!!!

The biggest issue I have is whenever I get rocked i try to get away from his punches but for like 3 seconds I'm still in the same spot and then I start to move back!

I completely agree with you I can’t count the times I rocked someone in ufc 2 and the ran away so fast I couldn’t finish them it’s frustrating as hell

I agree, but a also think that some movements drain too much stamina which is not realistic either, there are few fighters who can go the 3 full rounds at a high pace and , they should take that into consideration too.

I can’t stand gliding around the octagon throwing punches that you pressed 2 min ago. The latency is pretty bad and sets you up for failure especially when R2 doesn’t let you cancel them out. Another thing that gets me annoyed is the over hand. That punch covers wayyyy too much distance and you can throw that thing with full force with very little to no stamina smh! I agree with every other thing you said as well. Great video as always!

hey bro. subscribed a while back (been playing ufc since undisputed 1) and this is probably my first comment. i absolutely agree with you. How do we convince EA to change this? i mean, they have slow animations already and they can put a % decrease on stats relating to your stamina bar so they can nail 90% of what u asked for. how do we get them to implement this? this would make the game 100 times better than its current state which is pretty good already. As of now, Stamina is nowhere as close as how punishing it should be. if they fix it, the stand up would almost emulate real life ufc with ppl picking shots and all cause punches that miss kill ur stamina. Also, a neat feature would be excessive blood reduces the accuracy stat.

I’ve noticed this as well. I would do five round fights against McGregor and use Ferguson. Despite spending 3 rounds body kicking and grappling them, they were still able to catch me and turn the tides.

I know exactly how you feel Martial, i weathered this Anthony Pettis's stamina down, even with almot no stamina, he moved as if it was the first round(still won tho lol) but it was insane to me tbh.

THANK YOU! Everybody is just riding this games high horse.. People are denying problems because theyve been waiting so long, they'll accept anything.. There are a few obvious problems in the game that if fixed could make this game legendary... Im glad you're using your platform to address this!!!

I agree and also think that slipping, ducking, swaying etc should use a small amount of stamina. People shouldn't just be able to spam head movement without it affecting them in any way.

I could not agree more. This is just simply how things are in real life. I noticed the fighter speed and movement too, and it does seriously need to be fixed. I want fighter damage to come into effect as well like with what you said with the block. The more you block the weaker it gets. If only you and I could make a realistic mma game ugh... hopefully the devs and creators can change these HUGE problems.

Last nights fights were a perfect example of what you're talking about. The Alvarez fight was an incredible, sloppy war at the end because they were both so tired and Holloway absolutely ran through Aldo after he gassed out. That would be an incredible addition to UFC 3. It would force the aggressive fighters to pull back a little bit or they risk gassing out too early with it actually having a profound effect. The striking slowed down significantly in this game which is great, but the strikes per round are still high compared to real UFC fights. This addition would greatly combat that.

tbh when someone is low on stamina they get rocked more quickly plus they can't throw the same amount of volume that they can in early rounds so it's pretty easy to get them out once they gas in this game.but I still agree with everything you said,it would make the game even more realistic.

you sound passionate with what u talk about, I like it, keep up the goodwork, Im sure they''ll fix this issue.

Why don't the creators who made ufc undisputed 3 just make ufc 4

One issue I have is I keep fake punching/ kicking without meaning to. I don't even know how to fake a punch even if I wanted to

This is why UFC undisputed 3 was and still is the GOAT of MMA games. Not only was there a simulation mode where fighters would get tired much easier, but fighters also had advantages that they would tell you like “conditioning, NCAA wrestler, Speed, Size, etc, etc”. And it was actually noticeable like if you picked a guy who had good conditioning as a strong point and you fight someone who does not, you will notice that you do actually have a bigger gas tank then your opponent.
