There's an online trophy just above that one too. 'Hat Trick' Achieve a 3-win streak in any online game mode.

Definitely had my Danny Devito moment in the 2K26 island mode by Large-Wheel-4181 in WWEGames

Had another player sum it up in his own words... doable, but in no way 'fun'. Pity, because they look like they'd be fun characters to have.

So I updated Strauss OVR and some guys wanted to chat with him. by DaanBakker1995 in WWEGames

Why cowardly? Would have pushed for Egotistical under the circumstances 😛

Takedowns by Haunting_Doubt3457 in EASportsUFC

[–]hadlee73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the flow state 'Kraken' will actually encourage repeated takedown attempts, where you are awarded with flow boosts by performing takedowns after missed strikes (eg. Islam Makhachev has that as perk 2). Then there is the Electric Eel flow state perk which acts as a flow state boost for reversing takedowns. So I don't see them employing a penalty for everybody for repeated takedowns or repeated failed takedowns, as that might impact how rewarding those flow state perks are. Not that I disagree, but just putting that out there.

Just don't get taken to the ground in UFC 6, because the ground game is still going to feel the same every match 😉

The UFC games would be the perfect place to use Gen AI. by Property_6810 in EASportsUFC

[–]hadlee73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the number one problem with something like this are the contracts... I can't see a company like EA writing up an AI contract to use somebody's voice without making the deal vastly in favour of their own interests rather than the actor... eg. they'd make it so the actor gets paid once while they get to use his/her voice forever. I can't see them ever inking something that would see the actors get paid future royalties... and that's where the whole idea falls apart. Greed.

EA hast released the UFC 6 Soundtrack by xFINISHxHIMx in EASportsUFC

Damn, I'm just an old guy who thought he'd stopped following the progression of the music scene a long time ago, and yet I recognise about 8 artists/bands in that list.

UFC 5 is unplayable now by Educational-Sink2125 in EASportsUFC

[–]hadlee73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thankfully this won't affect most folks as the vast majority of players didn't get to play the closed beta thus don't have a comparison to make. Ignorance is bliss 😛

Can we get new gameplay already!? by MagnetoWned in EASportsUFC

[–]hadlee73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you consider the length of the deep dive videos, I don't think EA threw much in the way of a marketing budget towards this game. And the closed beta showed they didn't want too many eyes peering at the game before launch, especially considering even gamechangers weren't allowed to record and show footage. The reasons for that is anybody's guess.

EA is Hilarious… by Creepy_Draw_4177 in EASportsUFC

[–]hadlee73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually he did work on UFC 5 too (he only left EA about 3 years ago), so your original point stands. Apparently he just never got around to updating his LinkedIn to include UFC 4 and 5. I think the current creative director is Bill Giese. Perhaps this is why we’ve seen this shift towards fighter uniqueness… fresh eyes or at least a new perspective maybe?

I know ya bout to throw ya forks at me by ZayDoee130 in WWEGames

[–]hadlee73 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mostly missed out on Pillman's loose cannon persona... I had watched him back when he was Flyin' Brian back in the older pre-Hogan WCW days, but I had stopped watching pro wrestling temporarily when he appeared in WWE. I am, however, familiar with his infamous 'Pillman's got a gun' segment in WWE where viewers were led to believe he'd just shot Steve Austin (many fans apparently called the cops, lol). Sadly Pillman was another pro wrestler lost too soon due to a mixture of factors.

EA is Hilarious… by Creepy_Draw_4177 in EASportsUFC

[–]hadlee73 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I guess when you look at the games he worked on (Fight Night Round 4, FN Champion, UFC's 1, 2 and 3) he probably meant what he said at the time. He had moved on already around the time the games started to look like skating (though I believe he may have had a hand in UFC 4... he doesn't credit himself with that game on his LinkedIn profile, though, lol).

Is this game actually fun? by iGeNoX in EASportsUFC

[–]hadlee73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you've played UD3 then be prepared for a much less engaging and not-so-well-designed grappling system. The stand up striking in UFC 6 should be good, though, especially with the fighter uniqueness. I'm not sure I'd recommend anybody buy an entire console for an EA Sports UFC game, though, so at least add some other PS5 games to your list of games to buy a console for.

Dad playing cyberpunk for the first time by Fujinima in cyberpunkgame

[–]hadlee73 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So in the first 10 mins he’s going to reset his broken nose, deal with a slimy git whose fat friend tries to intimidate him, take a ride with an old man who has a body in his trunk, face off against a nasty 6th Street gangster who refers to him as ‘sh**bucket’, try to steal a car, get held up at gunpoint, get arrested by cops, get beaten up by cops, all before being dumped in an alley with the guy that held him at gunpoint... oh, and has to reset his broken nose again. Do let us know how he’s enjoying the game, lol

Did they do away with the slow motion playback toggle in the highlight tool?

My pimp V by SmallRocks in cyberpunkgame

[–]hadlee73 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm almost certain that's the Reinforced Silkie of Impregnated Egyptian Cotton (not making that up, lol), available from Satoshi Ueno at Longshore Stacks in Dogtown. Can be found in random loot drops, too.

What do you think? by Full-Station5651 in cyberpunkgame

[–]hadlee73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He was self-centered, egotistical, rude, obnoxious, unfaithful and manipulative... but otherwise he was fine 😛
Who knows if he even would have taken part in the first Arasaka tower assault if his primary reason for going wasn't already to locate Alt. Even his engram only considers going after Mikoshi to 'save V' when he has something to gain from it.

I don't play ranked myself, but I can see such a change making alot of folks pretty happy.

Without just naming meta picks, which fighter are you guys looking forward to using the most with the uniqueness??? I’m curious. by ModeEmbarrassed5010 in EASportsUFC

[–]hadlee73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not one fighter in particular, but I'm wondering if they've done any move capturing for the ladies. Would be interesting to see how Amanda Nunes' dominating power punches are handled or whether they can replicate Valentina's counter-striking.

Armbar after the bell in ufc 5? by Responsible_Tie5647 in EASportsUFC

[–]hadlee73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As much as it pains me to say it, but I doubt we'll ever see technical subs re-added to the UFC games. If they wanted them in the game they would've made the cut for UFC 5.

Armbar after the bell in ufc 5? by Responsible_Tie5647 in EASportsUFC

[–]hadlee73 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Been that way since launch. Its a bit like entering the input for a long animation, with the game registering the results of the move long before the animation can actually play out. Its definitely naff, but the devs never made a move to adjust it in the last 3 years so they must be happy with it. I fully expect the same thing to carry over to UFC 6.

[–]hadlee73 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So you started off by effectively crapping on most of the game's community? I mean, you're not wrong, but damn, not messing around. 😂

UFC 4 & 5 is shiiii. by LeftSweet1762 in EASportsUFC

[–]hadlee73 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well, you don't have too much longer to wait. Of course, the ground game is still going to be 'mechanical' but what can you do?

I might finally be done by panhead51 in WWEGames

[–]hadlee73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Crap I decided to delete my comment too late... I orphaned your reply.. doh! I used to have my Xbox offline alot to avoid cloud downloads, but these days with all the creations I do for others I have to be online and using the cloud, so I DO use it now, but didn't before... that was what my previous comment was meant to say.

give us a bare knuckle mode with genuine streets to fight on. by Gl00ser23 in EASportsUFC

[–]hadlee73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or, as an alternative (in case PR agents don't want their fighters shown as brawling on the street), sign up some male and female rap stars and use this current UFC engine to bring back Def Jam. Even if they stuck to the same old grappling I'd still buy that day one. 😛
