Generally speaking, the better your position is relative to your opponent on the ground, the fewer options he has - in full guard, for instance, any direction on the stick might offer an escape, but from back control only one or two might work. Know your opponent’s options on the ground Use them in conjunction with mobile head movement to dance rings around almost anyone. Movement-based characters like Dominick Cruz and TJ Dillashaw have ‘signature’ lunges that are even more useful - they come in less predictable patterns and are easy to confuse with offensive movements, making them great for throwing off non-savvy opponents.

Shooting for takedowns and submissions are also smooth, while ground submissions and reversals again look like the real deal.The important style of lunge in UFC 3 is the ‘big’ version: hold down L1/LB and flick the left stick in any direction, and you’ll take a big step that way, combined with a body shift that can make you harder - or easier - to hit. Strikes flow smoothly in general, though there were a couple of moments where they didn’t quite connect, making fighters get a bit tangled up. After throwing out and recreating all the player animations from scratch, the movement of the fighters is fluid and the ability to get straight back up from a knockdown albeit wobbling mimics reality very well. The in-game action and presentation all looks and sounds as it should. Out of the two modes, the standard online division fights felt more balanced and fair, compared to the Ultimate Team ones and I’d personally stick with this mode to satisfy the online portion of the game. You can avoid all of this though and choose to fight in the standard online divisions where there are no perks and cards to worry about, instead simply focusing on the real world fighter in front of you. Do these perks have an impact? Undoubtedly, with some being favourable to you while others more favourable to an opponent. You won’t know which perks and bonuses your opponent has, so you can’t anticipate what their strengths or weaknesses will be before a fight, which is the antithesis of how real fights and contracts are organised in the career and the real world. In a few of the packs I received my perks included better stamina, and a stronger chin to offset damage. The main area of contention will be the perks. For example, a takedown will be much more favourable to a wrestler than a striker, even though you can apply the same moves to any of your fighters if you’re willing to take the hit to your Chemistry. Each move can alter the attributes of a fighter for better or worse, depending on their fighting style.

Every fighter you get will have a series of core moves, but the more flashy and damaging moves are found in packs. Here you can put together a team of real and created fighters, with packs dealing out individuals, moves and perks. Before you head online, it is definitely recommended you do some of the career or watch the tutorials, because in this space things are a lot tougher to handle.įront and centre in online play is UFC Ultimate Team.

So far online, you don’t appear to really need to worry about grappling and submissions, as most players seem to prefer to stand and throw strikes. In stand up clinches, blocking knees in the Thai clinch seem to be temperamental too, and a few of those will heavily damage the fighter on the receiving end. Most of the time the end of the fight will be reached. For example, if an opponent postures up from top mount and starts throwing punches, it is very hard to grab an incoming fist to stop the onslaught or to move in to another position. However there are points where there’s nothing you can really do to stop a beatdown. As with the real deal, you need to pay attention to the movements of your opponent during transitions to either block them or find an opening to move into a better position. On the other hand, the grappling itself can be a lot more challenging to overcome. Initially it does feel a bit daunting, but after a couple of fights the submissions clicked for me and transitioning through them started going smoothly. The aim is to block progression by a fighter using the right analog, and transitioning with the left when the prompt appears. As in previous games, the submissions come in the form of a mini game using the analogue sticks.

The submission game feels a bit cumbersome at first, but it all does eventually click.
