UFC Undisputed scammers
by twitchscb on Comments
How could a game that so accurately follows the fastest growing sport be ruined? Well partly by some shortcuts taken by the developer but that's an entirely different rant for an entirely different blog. But mainly by having to play todays society of gamers online. The online mode to UFC Undisputed 2009 takes the game by THQ to a completely different level, despite a somewhat minor amount of lag across servers. This rant however is about the online fighting's blaring weakness, people that are more concerned with their stupid imaginary win/loss record then the actual excitement of competition and challenges. There is nothing worse the finally gaining mount in the second or third round after a grueling matchup and then throwing down an armbar for the submission, when, with five seconds left in the fight the game freezes up and informs you that the connection has been lost and the game is void. So my question to you people out there is why are you so pathetically concerned about a record on a video game that you have to leap across your room and turn off your console because of an impending doom for your character? Sad? Very And thats even if you can get a fight, waiting in a lobby with a viewable dominant record is like walking towards a highly paranoid person with a knife repeatedly saying, "I'm going to kill you"... End result 90 % of the time is they're going to run away, making gaps in between fights nearing the 5 to 10 minute mark. Then all you can do is hope that the fight lasts until the ref raises yours or your opponents hand. Not the gray screen marking the stun happening followed by a long pause with nothing but a shaking controller to remind you that maybe your just to good, and your record is never going to go up do to the voiding of all games ending with a connection loss. So after my ramble my message to gamers is this, chill on your record who really cares, give people credit for their wins and get better so that you can have your own fair share. If you truly don't want to fight someone better then you then don't enter into a match until you have a full grasp on the game and fight against people with losing records... My message to THQ, first off polish up the next games career mode, make it a true career. And add in a patch that has a stat of how many fighters have ducked you in your online career, no need to punish people that leave out in the menu but it would be a fun stat to have pinned on their. And even if awarding a win to a connection error is illogical at least tag on a loss to the side that caused the connection muff. Granted one out of ten people might get a loss because of a true accident but through the three days I've been playing I find it hard to believe that the consoles keep crashing a second after my opponent tapped to my submission... Lastly anyone that wants to have a good matchup can find me at twitchscb on 360 shortly
