UFC 4 drops on Friday 14 August. Any of you jabronies picking this up?
10 hour trial available with EA Access as of Friday 7 August.
I geeked UFC 2 & 3, but I don't know how to feel about this game. EA have went full fortnite mode and I can't help but feel awfully fuking disappointed. A 2 year development cycle resulted in lion masks and fuking fortnite dances. I'll be picking it up regardless because I'm burnt out on UFC 3, but I'm certainly not happy about parting with money for it.

Seen the graphics, for a game where most of the gameplay is in the cage and with very simple mechanics (compared to say, WWE) they look like PS3 quality at best. Can promise you that they won't invest anything into building up their fighters' reputation (ex: a short intro about them, their signature strikes/holds, their MMA career stats, won't try to make their fighters exciting in any way). This isn't a chance used to expand the UFC's growing reputation and build it up, it's medium effort money-grubbing.
Shouldn't be only two fighters on the cover, but a line-up of superstars and fighters. Wonder why I'm not enthusiastic about this game. C'mon man, cover looks like a 90's cassette tape cover

I played all of the mma games and even some of the boxing ones. They all look great given their release dates. The last UFC is 2 years old and the character models, physics all look great.
What do you mean there's no spectacle? EA theme music? New songs are added all the time. And you saying there's no downside to keep playing is the strong point of the game.
I remember it was either in UFC 1 or 2 where you could set up Pride tournements with Bas Rutten and Mauro Ranallo and I played the **** out of that.

Same. Picked it up for £48.00 through UFC 3 + EA Access discount, not a bad deal. Tried playing 3 again after the 10 hour trial on 4 and I just can't do it. There is some tweaks needed to certain aspects of the game, but overall I feel like its a better game. The clinch is smooth and the back and forth transitions between 2 players can look really good if you both know what you're doing.
One thing I really don't like is how they've basically merged UT & ranked into 1 single mode. Its a cheap attempt at a cash grab which EA are obviously famous for. One weight class per day in championships is a sharp attempt at forcing people into using their CAFs in a hope they'll burn cash on cosmetics. Ultimate team was a good concept (if originally poorly executed), which could of been decent with a few tweaks.
