UFC Undisputed 3

1. 1. Footwork seemed the same as UFC 2010 although the build was pre-alpha phase. Transitions and hit detections fine tuned to make it much smoother. Only true fans will notice a difference.
2. 2. Sub system at first presentation I thought was TOO easy. As the video went on it made sense on the octagon sub system. Its literally a cat and mouse game but with guidelines. You get like 5-10 seconds of sub time (or until stamina is drained) to catch up with the other circle. Think of it like two parallel lines with a circle in the middle. Each side has a set of parallel lines that are either short or long depending on certain conditions once you apply the submission. For example, your two lines are much longer (means easier for you to get subbed or sub) if you are gassed (defending) or if you rocked the opponent and go for a sub (attacking). Think of two kit kat bars that are lined up with opposite ends of an octagon. Try and overlap the other bar within a certain time to pull off a successful submission. The bar doesn’t have to be flush so it means that ¼ of your bar can overlap the opponents bar and the sub will be successful. Decent way of implementing it I say.
3. There were some instances where the video showed clinch work, like above, the feel looks like UFC 2010…although they greatly improved the dirty boxing clinch. Looks smoother and more brutal. They showed Mark Coleman v. Heath Herring in a PRIDE ring doing the Takayama v Frye mash potato contest. The cage seems to be implemented slightly more including using the cage to push off so you can pull off an armbar near the cage.
4. YES YES AND MOTHER ****ING YES. I was clapping and cheering when I saw that addition. In both Pride and UFC, after you KO the person, you can land a post KO Hendo v. Bisping bomb plus an additional couple more punches. This includes the face stomping and soccer kicks. TKO’s look and seem much better both in presentation and in gameplay. When you get rocked from bottom and the top person starts to stack you (grey mode), the player rocked can still bob and weave while on bottom to get out of the punches. If the punches lands clean, you can start to see the opponents eyes start to roll back and the face starts to become emotionless. It’s getting damn real.
5. Elbows were thrown quite a bit but not as fast as UFC 2010. The ground elbow animation looked brutal. They literally threw their hips into the elbow, sent the head flying to the canvas and doing damage.
6. Saw lots of new takedowns such as Jones v. Hamill TD when it dislocated Hamills shoulder. Didn’t see what needed to be done to defend nor how easy it will be. Let’s just hope it’s not the early build of the Machida TD in UFC 2010.
7. Rocked states varied depending on what rocked state you are in. If you’re back mounted and the opponent is raining punches down you can get “rocked’ in where the screen will go grey but will also send out ripples indicating you got hit pretty damn hard. Get kicked in the ear and that’s how it will sound and look like in the game.

I hope this helps ease the wait a bit. Unfortunately it was only a 10 min presentation. No goodies/swag afterwards. Cute girls (not hot) for booth babes, UFC personal Trainer was better when girls were doing it I was disappointed with UFC 2010..but after seeing this...PREORDERED
