Fight Night Round 4 (PS3/360)

Just looking on official Fight Night forums if you got Twitter account they are doing a demo code giveaway for both PS3 and 360.

Also just seen this Dev update

Update: 05-15-2009

Couple of quick things that I can speak about right away. First, for those interested timelines, the demo was locked down about 7 weeks ago in early, early April. As you might imagine, the final weeks of development is when a lot of the fine tuning and polishing gets completed. For example, off the top off my head:

1. Stamina. Stamina loss is a little higher and stamina regeneration is a little slower.

2. Punch connections. Landed punch collisions are cleaner and hit reactions have more intensity.

3. Cuts and Swelling. The onset is very fast in the demo. In the final version, depending on your susceptibility to damage you find that you might have several fights without incurring any significant damage - but then when it does happen, it really affects the way your fight plays out between rounds.

4. Punch Animations. Tweaks on many punches occurred after the demo was out the door to address performance/technique issues.

5. Gameplay Audio. The mix in the demo is not great and we know that. Lots of audio work was done in the final 6-7 weeks and it sounds much better.

6. Counter Punch Window. The counter window is roughly the same length, maybe a little shorter in the final version. But we tuned how often you can open it up. They don't happen as often overall.

7. AI Difficulty & Exploits. The final weeks were spent heavily invested in finding AI exploits like the hook spamming, body punch spamming, haymaker spamming, etc. It's tightened up quite a bit. Difficulty on the demo is pretty low, but we did that on purpose so people wouldn't get annihilated their first few fights.

8. Foot Speed & Locomotion. Little bit faster overall, but also behaves much better changing directions and maintaining distance to opponent when moving laterally.

9. HUD & Settings. There is an option to turn off HUD in final game. Options to change camera too. Gameplay sliders to adjust power, damage, speed and CPU behaviors.

10. Miscellaneous Hatton has his new tattoos. Shane Mosley's name is spelled correctly. As mentioned previously, several of the boxers overall ratings have been updated/balanced.

Hope that helps. More info to come when its available.

These mother-humpers at gamestation better send the fucking code,i should know better than buying from them,most of their staff look like crackheads from middle earth..
 
This game is the best boxing game thus far.It makes FNR3 look like Barry Mcguigan boxing on the spectrum waaaaay back.Great infighting,you have to get inside and out hustle,i like the way you can give a slight shove to give yourself a little edge.Hate that they still have that stupid blatant headbutt in there and the analog control has'nt changed much from FNR3.But some good fighters in there but not enough,should have atleast the top 20 from most divisions.But Pavlik V Calzaghe will be a good one and can't wait to do the Hagler v Hearns rematch.They even got the great Carlos Monzon but no Salvadore Sanchez,Wilfredo Gomez,Edwin Rosario,Hector Camacho snr.Could have put Benn&Eubank in plus Bruno back in the heavies.I look forward to the game in full.
 
They Should have let you choose the difficulty like the UFC game. Played it today, absolutely shite compared to UFC IMO.
 
Are people getting ko wins on this? I have won all of my matches on points, I dominate fights but cannot KO my opponent. I have been using combo's, working the body but still nothing. Any advice would be appreciated.
 
most of my fights end with ko's, if not there will def be knockdowns

cause it's soooooo easy (cause it's on easy difficulty) you can just go flying in and throw massive combos, just duck and weave when attacking.

i'm really glad about the changes to the game for release that were pointed out by bingham67 in post #211, cause i'm not really enjoying it that much at the moment, which is a shame cause i loved FNR3.

hopefully when released it changes my mind.
 
Anyone know more about gameface do you need camera or can you use photos. ?

Its good can share who you create online im going to make Khan so can demolish him with Tyson. :LOL:
