    Getting absolutely destroyed in Ranked here. How is UT overall this year lads? Enjoyed it last year so hopefully it’s not too different.

    Axwell, gonna go with Spidey, Batgirl, Deadpool and still deciding on a HW, maybe Wolverine.

    Just have to remember to create them in CAF Creator from the main menu. That way if you accidentally replace your UT caf, he's easy to get back. I made Spidey in UT but my CAF's are listed as 0/22 so if I replace him on UT, I have to make him all over again.

    Also praise Jesus, UT has practice mode this year so you can mess around with your movesets before affecting your record.

    Everything better except consumable perks are divisive and pro fighters takes away from the CAF's imo. I don't want to fight a load of McGregor's who might be grappling specialists!

    UT is different but not to the point of being completely new. I would say take your time to look through it before opening packs and lashing together a fighter as you cant just make as many as you want when you want and things expire now so your fighters are every changing or you need to pack the stuff you want to keep it topped up. Didnt notice practice mode that Zero just mentioned so ill be looking at that. Dont like the Pro fighters element of it though, prefer it was CAF only like before.

    If you go to solo challenges, there is a prescribe mode and even gives you coins for prescribing with your fighters.

    I'm on xbox, GT same as my handle here. I'll be buzzing around, if anyone wants a knock give me a shout :D

    Got started on UT and obviously my first created fighter had to be Artem. Amazing Grace as his walkout music and the McGregor strut when he enters the octagon. Nailed it.

    Finding it very hard to get my head around the different things in UT, particularly sets, tokens and solo challenges. All very confusing

    Those gold fighters will come in handy, if you go into sets, go to the champions tab and check the LW division. It will ask you to swap specific gold fighters for a champion pack that will contain a champion move you can't unlock through regular packs.

    And so the career begins...Artem "Hay Maker" Lobov (they have the surname there and all) starts out the road to the featherweight title...where the aim is to achieve status of the GOAT...it seems like faith...

    Edit: Decided to give him the fulll treatment...gameface baby!!!


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 10,462 Mod ✭✭✭✭Axwell


    Well as usual gameface is useless so its just generic template Artem but it wont matter, his destiny is still the same!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,447 ✭✭✭✭Zero-Cool


    Ah lads post some pics of Artem, I might make a Super hero version of him for my ultimate team, put him at heavyweight.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,054 ✭✭✭D.Q


    Is game face easy enough to get up and running?

    Getting absolutely smacked around on the feet in ranked

    >:(

    You do it on the website, you need a front on photo and ideally a side on but front only works too. Its easy to do but the results are hit and miss


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,447 ✭✭✭✭Zero-Cool


    Game face has NEVER worked for me on any EA UFC game. Always cage out like a deformed alien (more so than usual) 2k does it way better.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 10,462 Mod ✭✭✭✭Axwell


    Minor set back for Artem not winning his first career fight..career mode is a lot tougher than expected. Think im still getting used to the game, buring through too much stamina going for the hammer knock out power. Need to play some more and go back to it when im nice and flowy..

    Aqua Man makes his UT debut..

    It was pretty bad in 2 as well so havent took much notice of it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,886 ✭✭✭stephenl15


    Question. Would it be best for me to fight purely with my pre order Mcgregor so I've a better chance of winning and therefore improving my currently awful everyone else on my roster

    In theory yes, wreck people online in UT to get the highest amount of coins and just keep buying premium items until you get enough silver/gold cafs and moves to make them decent.
