Just got this game, the ragequits are incredible.
“OH MY TEDDY, GEORGE FOREMAN JUST LANDED A HUGE CRUSHING COUNTER UPPERCUT!”
ragequit
I’ve been accused of cheating for using the headbutt after my opponent PatriotsfaninPhilly lowblowed me first and I knocked him down so he ragequit my ass.
Sent me "Suck a Dick"
I sent Subj: "U MAAAAAAAD"
Philly Sucks"
Douche: “You cheat to get that KO so blah blah blah whine”
Post these assholes up here so we can avoid them.
As far as I am concerned, the game punishes cheapshots, and they are a part of boxing so I don’t mind them. If my opponent headbutts or lowblows me, I will get them back, or if they clinch too much I will headbutt or whatever. If it’s in the game, it’s in the game.
Yeah that’s the EA games crowd. What do you think about “cheap shots” I think its fine because lost points and DQs do happen and both players can use them.
yeah it sucks when people disconnect on you in this game, especially after you’ve fought your ass off for 9 rounds straight. but what i don’t get is why i have a 3% disconnect percentage even though i didn’t do shit.
talk about lame.
otherwise, the game is pretty fun so far. mindless fun, but fun nonetheless.
There should be a blacklist for any fags that win with headbutting or low blows. 5 of my 10 losses online were from cheapshots dropping me, it’s fucking annoying.
I play in WorldChamp mode, sooooo the whole using certain boxers doesn’t apply x_X
Headbutts and low blows are in the game man. They’re gonna get used, for the most part. You have to consider there will be 2 cheap shots per match or more.
It happens in real life too, the thing in the game though is that there are the same penalties for doing it built in. You can dodge a nutshot or headbutt easy enough. Usually if the guy does it to me first (which they will, as I outbox almost exclusively… and that pisses people off), I “save” mine so I can do a double headbutt during the stun and a hook to floor them.
I have to say, if we played I’d wait for your cheap shot first, but if I really wanted to end it, you’d probably be eating a headbutt sooner or later. It’s a part of the game and you gotta deal with it, I like to be reactionary with mine though.
By the way, is there a way to elbow? I’d rather use that to carve up a cut than a headbutt for flat damage.
Depends on the weightclass and mode. For the World Championship mode there is a lot of comp. If you like lightweights you should be able to get a match easy enough. Unranked is easier to get than ranked.
Do you like boxing? If so, you’ll probably dig it. If you’re more into slugging… maybe not.
I’ve seen elbows hit heads, but I don’t know if they actually caused any damage.
I wish I would go up against more BOXING opponents, get alot of tards spamming body blows to try to get your stam down just to land a lucky hook, I think 90% of people on PSN know nothing about boxing…
Yup. And the shitty part is that body shot shit still works.
I mean, it’s not as bad as it was in FNR3, but it can still get pretty stupid… especially in WC mode. I am thinking about getting done in WC mode because everybody maxes out punch power, stamina, and handspeed.
Well avoiding the body spam isn’t hard. Give them a few of your Best Punch before your stam gets too low, perfect block low to counter Best Punch, keep blocking low until they throw that high hook, weave, counter Best Punch again; usually they’re staggering or down by this point.
I’m still on the wall as to whether our stats matter or not, I’ve seen bigger changes when it comes to changing my posture, reach and punch preference. (I used Speed stance, short reach and power preference; I’d like to use long reach but all the kids just rush in making it an infight)
Maybe it’s just the lightweight division, but these idiots, I can block 70 percent of punches but when they throw about 3000 a round it’s a little ridiculous. Pure outboxing is just too tough as my reach wont matter if they just barrel through and my punches don’t push back.
I think it’s due to the speed of the lightweights to begin with, but I have been getting fucked over by these retards recently. I think middle or heavyweight will be a bit bigger.
As far as the posture and stuff, definitely makes a big difference. I’m going to make a new boxer/puncher style once I gamefaqs what the new styles do.
If I could use button controls the shit would be a wrap. I’m a Hajime no Ippo player, and real good at that, so I have trouble with the total punch thing.
