Haven't yet won with a submission, has to be the toughest part for me.

What about those real quick armbars like Matt Hughes did to GSP that took like 3 seconds not 3 minutes

I don't have a problem with this new system as a whole, however, the only thing I hate about this shit is that when I'm focusing locking in the gates and i finally get to the last step and press the left stick in the wrong direction because im too focused on blocking them, they get an easy fucking escape, that's just bullshit and annoying.

I love how it takes all the realism out of it with a big ass hud in the middle of the screen and blinking and beeping noises.

[Kritacul]

They took a easy system THQ had and over complicated it.
This needs to be fixed

[KingstonHawke]

I really do HATE this system. It took Ronda like have a minute to do something that would take half a second. There's just WAY too much pausing in this game. Doesn't have the fluidity of a real fight at all.

I just dont understand how they can make the submission system so complicated in the last 2 UFC games. I know they're trying to make the game as realistic as it can get, but in reality they don't show a damn octogon shape on the screen whenever someone is attempting a submission. UFC 2009 had it all right where you make sure your fighter's stamina bar is much higher than your opponent's and once you put them into a submission, YOU JUST ROTATE THE RIGHT STICK BUTTON CLOCKWISE AS FAST AS YOU CAN!!

This video explained so much, the in-game tutorial for this was a bit confusing.

This sub system kind of sucks. I can see it being damn near impossible at higher settings and online. Should have made a variation of undisputed 3s chase minigame.

[angrycat]

this is the most dumbest submission system ever made common man wtf is this? they need to fix this shit next year

[shadowboxer]

I tried so many times on challenge mode to successfully finished a submission it's very tricky, and takes too long, the in game mode is too hard, think Ea made it harder to submit and easier to defend, sucks

[stampiboy]

PLEASE EA sports make a video compilation where real UFC fighters play this  game as themselves



thanks

Bring back ufc undisputed game controls I hate these controls specially transitions on the ground the game looks cool but ufc 3 was better to play this is like a better version of ea mma

[maba]

This games subs are EXTREMELY difficult. EA should start a stat tracker to see how many subs there are compared to KOs&TKOs. I would bet there is over 100 TKOs and KOs to every 1 submission. That's not very consistant with real mma fights where RNCs and guillotines happen in probably 20 percent of the fights. No submission from takedowns? Why is it easier in the later rounds to do subs when in an actual fight it is easier to do subs in the 1st rd because your opponent is dry and you are still fresh? EA has got a lot of stuff to work on. Still a huge improvement over ea mma.

And som people when they get full mount you cannot get htem off literally they stay the fuck on you I tried kicking him off 10 times plus I roll but he gets back mount orlls 2 ufll mount es forrest griffin taking me down and im jacare souza just holding the tae down down

[PlngPong]

Ok So I've been trying to sub Jon Jones like 100 times and Can't seem to use this system at all does anyone have any tips because this seems just stupidly hard.

[ulfhenar]

Thx, that's quite hard to do, but at least i understand how to do it. It was so easy in tutorial and when you fight, its so different xD they didn't say "Use both sticks, he will push more in his way. hold the stick" whatever, the submission was the wierd part for me, rest is pretty easy. Now i can finally BREAK SOME ARMS XD

[blackestskyline]

I can't even win the first fucking fight to get into the house in career mode.

[FeelinGoode]

I'm having fun with the demo. I just hope they have a more easier tutorial system that guides you as you play. Not teach everything at once like the demo.

Why does every video have a ps4 pad on it?
