The creation of task handles still seems too fiddly. Due to these problems, the ground combat is noticeably pushed into the background and is thus no alternative to punches and kicks. In the coming offshoots, EA Canada will have to come up with something new. Nevertheless, the kickboxing shows in much better shape than in the predecessor, in contrast to the ground combat. This still does not convince. Although you choose between the implementation of a mini-game or annoying button-mashing, at the end of the day make both variants no fun. The change of positions is not a dynamic fight, but seems too schematic and not very spectacular. To do this, you can easily balance attacks with the right stick. Of course, “EA Sports UFC 3” knocks and kicks on an endurance system. So if you do not keep track of your condition, you run out of breath halfway. This will make your attacks slower and in the worst case, you will not even get rid of them. The swinging out proves to be an effective means of defense, but requires good timing and an even better eye. If you make a mistake, enemy punches do more damage. The most important innovation: You can move your fighter now and should strike at the same time. In practice you put more pressure on your adversary and keep him at a distance with jabs in the forward movement. The system also allows targeted circling and slamming. Also for the defensive, this innovation proves useful. Sometimes one step and one beat make the difference. A hit then slows down the attack efforts of your opponent and gives you the chance to counter. WITH A BLACK EYEĪlready the predecessor titles tried honestly to a realistic as possible implementation of the MMA martial arts. But the mix of kickboxing and ground combat proves to be a big challenge even for the seasoned EA Canada development team. For the third part of the series, the studio puts especially hand to the stand-up gameplay. Unlike the second part, the current offshoot offers more freedom and reveals more depth to advanced players.
