Undisputed is looking great though, for me needs more Camera options, a nice zoomed out, high up, still Camera would be interesting for "players" like myself who like to watch CPUAI vs CPUAI.
 
Won't touch it until it's got career mode! Animations still look well off for me though, in particular when a punch lands, it just doesn't look right.
 
So, this is still in early access? Currently for 50 bucks (compared to 30 when ea started)?!
What’s the release version gonna cost; 10 bucks more? When is that planned for?
What about the WBC edition?! Is there are special edition with more content and/or is fighter and arena dlc planned?

Please bring me to speed guys. 😊
 
Game is still in early access, The "full" version is going to be released on 11th October, it will come to PC. PS5 and Xbox. The standard edition is £44 (on consoles), the WBC eddition is £6 (it gets you 3 days early access and also below: 1724766354627.png
 
Has anyone here who's played this been a fan of the fight night games? I played FNC basically until I couldn't due to compatibility. Have been waiting for a new boxing game for YEARS and as a massive fan of the sport for 25 years, I'm hoping this comes anywhere near close to FNC.

Would love to hear your thoughts if so!

So i downloaded the game because I'm a boxing nut and it's solid whilst unspectacular. Very good effort given the game started off as a small independent.

In moments the game feels great but it's quite unpolished. Framerate suffers a lot, controls often lag or don't register which, in a game that requires very quick reactions etc, is a big problem. KDs don't feel particularly rewarding, not sure there are any 1 punch KOs (at least I haven't had one) and the creator is very limited.

I also find the control a little fiddly, I think FNC mapped body modifier to the weave button which sems like a small thing but make a big difference when you're trying to time a body shot out of a weave. Rather than maintaining your button press, you need to let go, press the other shoulder button and punch. If you do it too quickly it doesn't register and too slow, you miss your window.

Overall, it's fun but probably not worth full price right now.

From what I've seen the animations were always poor and they didn't bother to fix them, there's just two models to animate, surely it's not that hard to get right? They seemed to have lost their focus and cared more about marketing and signing high profile names. They should have been investing money in high quality mocap, high quality animators and producers who knew what they were doing.
 
I disagree, some of the personal animations for fighter are class. Fury, Usyk, Wilder, Bivol, Canelo, RJJ etc all look like their counterparts when moving and throwing. Also, one punch KOs are in the game, just very rare, had one against my mate which came out of nowhere.

Had this lovely flash KD yesterday.

Shows how bad the game is Canelo's never been down in his career and when it does happen I see him being stopped on his foot nothing more ;)

Jokes aside that did look very good but the overall animations are poor and it doesn't feel like punches are properly landing (based on a purely watching brief I haven't played it myself).

haha I was about to bite until you said jokes aside 🤣

It's definitely not perfect but I think people spamming and not trying to actually box make it look a lot worse
