4. Crazy Cardio
https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=yqhywv32dOY Granted nobody wants a player to be rewarded for playing too defensively, but when youre throwing dozens of strikes and the spinning attacks EA seem to love so much without tiring, you know that something has gone amiss. As per the UFCs website, the average number of significant strikes absorbed by a UFC fighter per round is 2.61. Adhering to this meagre number of strikes would make the game too slow, but that doesnt mean both fighters should be throwing non-stop without tiring EA UFC should achieve a happy-medium between these two undesirable extremes. In THQs Undisputed UFC series we had the ability to choose between simulation stamina or the more forgiving default fitness mode before a fight. EA UFCs goal was to be the most realistic MMA game to date so it should default to a more realistic cardio system, with the option to adjust to a forgiving fitness mode for casual players. Ideally, rather than just having the opposing simulation and casual modes, the game would have a slider for players to select the perfect balance between realism and amusement for them.
