Played online for the first time last night in the World Championshiop mode.
First fight I won with a 9th round KO. The guy didn’t take the count though and quit. I def got the win though.
2nd fight I got ko’ed in round 2. This was just horrible. My opponent must of threw about 300 punches in the 1st round. I just felt like I couldn’t do anything to combat so many punches. He wasn’t getting tired at all and why I landed some counters they really should have more effect considering how many punches the guy is throwing.
3rd fight I won with a 6th round KO. Managed to score a flash knockdown in round 1 and then for the next 3 rounds I thought I was cruising. Opponent was throwing more but I felt I was doing the better work. Got knocked down in the 5th and my opponent had a point deducted for a headbutt. Managed to score a KO in the 6th round.
I had the same last night. Guy just didn't stop punching. I just ran away and worked behind the jab. They are open to counter and more punishment when their stamina is down and I counteracted pretty well I thought. He missed me loads and I had quite a few "play" points due to avoiding so many punches.
Dropped him in the end as he was knackered. The punches should really be coming at you a lot slower if they punch themselves out though!
I got fed up of playing unranked as people just quit on you or start head butting if they are losing. I would never quit out on purpose.
The headbutt just needs to be removed full stop. Yes they get punished for it but it's pointless really.
Not everyone is a dick though and I've had some great scraps.
Couldn't find any ranked games last night except in Champ mode. Weird.
In unranked earlier in the evening, I found an opponent, he quit out straight away and then I found him again.
I heard him saying "Same motherfucker again. I'm outta here!" What's the point searching for a game and then quitting? Don't get it. Even if somebody has only just started playing the game. It doesn't mean it's going to be a crap fight! Don't understand people who do that. Didn't even get a chance to switch boxer!!
Anyway, this isn't perfect but it's bloody good imo.
