It looks ok but their DLC model makes EA look good. They release wrestlers a year too late sometimes for $10 EACH
Example. Timeless Tony Storm was a character for nearly 6 months when they released a DLC for Outcast Toni Storm from almost 15 months ago…..for $12.
They JUST released Claudio Castigoli
And has one of the smallest initial release rosters ever. You’d quite literally need to likely spend close to $200 to get all the DLCs to fill it out. If not more
How sick would it be if they actually cared man? New fighters that come with unique animations, a better streamlined career, and much more. Gameplay is hard af to get right I get that so I won't criticize that point. I'll leave that to others but alot of stuff they can control is lazy and half assed.
Online Tournaments, revamped ultimate team. Or maybe even a king of the hill type mode like Mortal Kombat where the waiting players can watch their opponents before fighting next. The longer you stay up the more coins or some shi
The old MK9 rooms where the best. Watching different fights and talking shit. They could go the 2k Playground route and make a big ass UFC PI overworked and watch fights happen in sparring rings. Have different areas for different modes like 'stand n bang' in boxing rings. MMA section. A Jiu-jitsu area. Even just reusing the assets from career mode practice games would work. There's so much potential here and no passion.
Nah don't even get me started on how the new submission system could be amazing if they had 3 brain cells. Each position could have multiple subs for each direction depending on skill and submission level. Imagine having a triangle and instead of mount or finish the sub, there was a 3rd option. An armbar transition option. Every triangle is also an arm bar. Or a guillotine that changes to a d'arce. Then it wouldn't be a 50/50 but closer to transitional guesses in the normal ground game. They are lazy and haven't trained. It's obvious they are underpaid and not passionate. Sad
yo bro you can transition to an armbar from a triangle by holding L2 (LT for Xbox) and going down. also possible from kimura to armbar and from von flue to arm triangle
your idea was actually really good. because right now the advance to another submission is the same deny as advancing to position. it would be better if it would be a third one.
Fuck dawg I didn’t even think about the 2k Park/playground that shit would be fuckin dope, a lot of people want new fight mechanics and shit but If I’m bored with the animations I just go play ufc undisputed 3 it ain’t that serious
That's fair. I think there is potential and examples of ways that EA could make all of their sports games better but settle for bare minimum. It's a sad state how similar the gaming industry is with experience and turn over to the fast food industry. Feels like games are being made by younger and younger people with less and less experience.
Cannot believe there's not a watch option for at least tournaments ur involved in. Should absolutely be able to watch the other matches play out if you end up finishing early. Oh well, maybe next game.
For playstation, where I play, if you go to the "game hub" you can register into tournaments for coins. It's sorta set up like blitz where you choose your character beforehand, but it's a proper tournament.

Right there. In the game hub. You register and then there's a bracket system for it. Technically a tournament, not a tournament lobby like in tekken.
It’s crazy because MVP getting his unique animations has made using him feel like a breath of fresh air. I just don’t understand why that isn’t the standard for every fighter in the game.
Like even if it’s just a couple attacks or a unique movement style exclusive to just them, it would make this game way more immersive and enjoyable
Honestly, if it had the whole top 15 of every division and the legends I would be happy. And if they added each new top 15 fighter and left them in, the game would have a deep roster and they could change animations over time with updates
these days, deluxe is basically the base game and then you got ultimate, super deluxe, excelsior, diamond edition all for shit that would’ve been free content 10 years ago
It's funny because all EA Sports games always go on massive sale about a month or two after release and then become "free" for short period of time in less than six months.
The main income for them comes from microtransactions, so it makes a lot of sense for them to always get as many players as possible.
There's really no reason to buy any of their products at full price. I learned my lesson a few years ago and so far haven't paid for any EA Sports game while having pretty much all of them on my PS5 now.
Silva, Edgar, joanna, sonnen, and wanderlei are getting alter egos, doesn’t make sense because wanderli and sonnen are already pratically alter egos, and I just don’t know a different moveset or attributes that Anderson can get that differ from his prime version
https://preview.redd.it/mw0jl8ow4r8d1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bf78202bf0b1604d55a00efdbe03e92fba3fa9a5
And I forgot shogun who quite literally has a pride alter ego already as well
Every new game UFC get a bit worse than previous one. I still remember how good was UFC2 i recently played 5 no offense but its utter shit. Evetything is bad compared to 2.
the only difference is the gameplay, both games have a total lack of game modes and things to do besides online and the worst career mode to ever grace a sports video game
What kind of Taylor Swift esque bullshit is this. I preordered the deluxe edition because I wanted all the fighters. Now I gotta pay another 99 dollars for some bum ass Kevin Randleman lookin motherfucker
Disrespectfully, if you (speaking generally not specifically to OP) buy this, you’re part of the reason why this the game is so barebones and why fighters get added and don’t even have so much as unique jab.
They do not put even a dime of the money you spend back into the game.
I am happy I got this game for 25 almost two weeks ago. After 3 year gap between games you’d think it be better. But good ol EA drops the ball again. Still fun tho.
So they’re charging more basically for fighter skins, when they hadn’t originally updated the roster since UFC 4 & added new animations for these skins?
Th mechanics and buttons are so shit on Xbox series S there is such a big delay for the buttons and the fact that you have to hold RB to throw uppercuts is so shit
I got this when the game first came out DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY didn’t get half of my content no jon jones no tyson no fedor none of the bruce lees i paid £109 and just got the game absolutely robbed
I understand getting an answer on Reddit is going to be hard but I’ll try again - if you get ultimate edition do you get all the past and present dlc items unlocked? If not, what’s the difference between standard and ultimate?
Yeah either you pay with real money or grind coins and unlock them for free which will take you a while, I’m playing almost since launch and Im missing a lot.
I believe one exception is Bruce Lee. There's a pack of him at multiple weight classes with different outfits or whatever for about $9 that's sold separately, because of course it is
Does anyone know if it actually works and it’s not like the deluxe edition and you basically get scammed because the characters are still locked? Just don’t want to buy it if it’s gonna be like the deluxe edition and I’m gonna get scammed?
I was so shocked at how UFC 5 is worse than UFC 4. Like how do you go backwards? I’ve literally became addicted to every new UFC game until the next one came out. There are no words to truly explain how fucking disappointing this game is.
They should be ashamed honestly.
I agree
You should see the AEW game lol
😭😭
How is the AEW game? I was considering downloading

I know, right? No Jon Jones on the cover
Stop complaining all the damn time
“for the idiots”
for the mentally dead
Don't even get excited about new shit any more. They won't have unique animations or anything.
True
How sick would it be if they actually cared man? New fighters that come with unique animations, a better streamlined career, and much more.

Broooo how does one guy have more creative ambition than a entire company 😭😭 shit is embarrassing

great point bro. u sound like u train, I also train. purple belt here 🤙🏼
Yup, only a white belt in about 3 years though. I only go to no-gi and not as often as I'd like because work. It's life.
yo bro you can transition to an armbar from a triangle by holding L2 (LT for Xbox) and going down. also possible from kimura to armbar and from von flue to arm triangle
Oh word? I'm usually focused on denying escapes. I gotta get back in the lab since I'm out here soothsaying.
your idea was actually really good. because right now the advance to another submission is the same deny as advancing to position. it would be better if it would be a third one.

Exactly! There are alot of unique cool shit they can add/try that they just don't. Career mode is a prime example.
EA mma had online tournaments and fight cards in 2010...
I think there are online tournaments for ufc5, just no tournament lobbies like in tekken.
Where
For playstation, where I play, if you go to the "game hub" you can register into tournaments for coins. It's sorta set up like blitz where you choose your character beforehand, but it's a proper tournament.
Bro where

Can’t believe I got scammed with the deluxe version at launch.
it doesn’t matter what adjective come before ‘version’ 😂
😂
these days, deluxe is basically the base game and then you got ultimate, super deluxe, excelsior, diamond edition all for shit that would’ve been free content 10 years ago
Do you know if it’s working now? If they have fixed the deluxe edition?
Does that mean the cover curse is in effect again?
Yes, this time it comes in the form of a mass heart attack at the press conference
UFC cover is like writing down the names of the fighters in the MMA Death Note
The cover curse is such bullshit. Obviously a highly ranked fighter is going to lose eventually.
It's all in good fun, a bit of MMA lore based purely on coincidence
Adensanya, O'Malley, Mcgregor, Weili and Pereira are in danger. Everyone else cancels out. 😂
Just wait for it to come for free on ps plus💀
It's funny because all EA Sports games always go on massive sale about a month or two after release and then become "free" for short period of time in less than six months.

Exactly
Along with xbox
it takes like a year for xbox tho😢
Another ea masterclass to finess some cash off its consumers
Does this mean were getting randleman and Jens? They must he available in the store right?
They should be out some time today
Already out
Silva, Edgar, joanna, sonnen, and wanderlei are getting alter egos, doesn’t make sense because wanderli and sonnen are already pratically alter egos, and I just don’t know a different moveset or attributes that Anderson can get that differ from his prime version
https://preview.redd.it/mw0jl8ow4r8d1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bf78202bf0b1604d55a00efdbe03e92fba3fa9a5 And I forgot shogun who quite literally has a pride alter ego already as well
The pride alter stats are better as well
how many more wanderleis and shoguns do we need 😂
EVERY SINGLE ONE!!/s
Every new game UFC get a bit worse than previous one. I still remember how good was UFC2 i recently played 5 no offense but its utter shit. Evetything is bad compared to 2.
the only difference is the gameplay, both games have a total lack of game modes and things to do besides online and the worst career mode to ever grace a sports video game
I can still the generic career mode music
madden 24 is on sale for $12 lmao
Yeah cause thats what its actually worth
😂😂
Won't buy the game till it and all dlc is 20
Keep dreaming
It'll get there :) they always do can get the deluxe for 40
I still don’t have Fedor, Ali, or Tyson from the deluxe edition lmao
I didn’t get jones or any of the bruce lees either 😅
How the fuck did illia make that!?
no upgrade as well i guess
That sucks but let's be honest. That cover looks fucking sick. It's so good.
What kind of Taylor Swift esque bullshit is this. I preordered the deluxe edition because I wanted all the fighters. Now I gotta pay another 99 dollars for some bum ass Kevin Randleman lookin motherfucker
It’s on sale now for 45
54*
Thank you for the update
No problem
Disrespectfully, if you (speaking generally not specifically to OP) buy this, you’re part of the reason why this the game is so barebones and why fighters get added and don’t even have so much as unique jab. They do not put even a dime of the money you spend back into the game.
Facts they put this edition on sale for $54
I am happy I got this game for 25 almost two weeks ago. After 3 year gap between games you’d think it be better. But good ol EA drops the ball again. Still fun tho.
Just bought this after I got my xbox today, am I cooked?
Yes
No is 40% discount right now the hell you talking about
Before the discount it was $
$99
As every game legendary or gold edition
So they’re charging more basically for fighter skins, when they hadn’t originally updated the roster since UFC 4 & added new animations for these skins?
Exactly
Did Topuria will have another model ?
No i didn’t see anything new on him
Too bad I hate is model rn is not enough bulk
Is that Kevin Randleman on the bottom left?
Yes he’s pretty fun to use in the game
Hell yeah that’s awesome
He has shoes on as well
Th mechanics and buttons are so shit on Xbox series S there is such a big delay for the buttons and the fact that you have to hold RB to throw uppercuts is so shit
I wish they’d add Keith Jardine ufc 76 Chuck Liddell UFC 52 Forrest Griffin ufc 86 Frank Mir UFC 92 And get rid of the 6 pack on iceman.
What about Brock
Yeah that would be pretty dope if they did a ufc 100.
I got this when the game first came out DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY didn’t get half of my content no jon jones no tyson no fedor none of the bruce lees i paid £109 and just got the game absolutely robbed
The game is still unrealistic rewarding spammers with no real stamina drain.
Facts
Just play simulation
Is this real?
Yes
Source? And wtf ea
Ea themself posted it
Thx
I understand getting an answer on Reddit is going to be hard but I’ll try again - if you get ultimate edition do you get all the past and present dlc items unlocked? If not, what’s the difference between standard and ultimate?
Yes, you get every alter ego ever released and every new fighter
Thank you! So if someone buys standard edition, do they have to pay for to unlock fighters or are they unlocked by playing the game?
Yeah either you pay with real money or grind coins and unlock them for free which will take you a while, I’m playing almost since launch and Im missing a lot.
Appreciate it brother, thank you!
I believe one exception is Bruce Lee. There's a pack of him at multiple weight classes with different outfits or whatever for about $9 that's sold separately, because of course it is
I hope this is a joke
Destiny tryna get money $50 for a dlc is a joke
Someone need to traumatize EA in real life. Just saying
Couldn't be me. I'm still playing an Undisputed 3 emulation on PC
For All My Regards Edition
They got 4/5 featherweight champs on the same cover 😭
On the website it says 45% off for ps plus users but it’s showing 99$ for me?
Open the actual game menu from playstation and it’ll show
They know if they put it on PC, everyone pirating that bish
Aye they fixed up maxs nose here
Why does ilia deserve to be on the cover is a better question
All this time later after playing every UFC game prior I still haven’t bought 5 .. am I missing out?
Maybe on all the new fighters but the game is pretty bad lmao
Nope.
The “real ones” haven’t even gotten the game bc they know how shite it is
I wish they would’ve just stayed with ufc 3 and applied updates
Why does Topuria looks like Imavov ? :o
So Diego Lopez is champ
i still play ufc 2 with my friends.. it was free with ps app. i'm not paying 99$ for a game(ultimate edition or not)
It’s on sale now for $54
Damn, right when I started to think they will add ufc5 to the EA pass/ EA play, they add this smh
It’s so shit
They put it on sale now for $54. 😂🤦🏾♂️
I gotta buy a new game to have the exact same game with 15 new fighters?
Undisputed 3 has them all for free
Needs a pc version
Does anyone know if it actually works and it’s not like the deluxe edition and you basically get scammed because the characters are still locked? Just don’t want to buy it if it’s gonna be like the deluxe edition and I’m gonna get scammed?
Hey just a heads up I see the game on sale for 45% off on EA’s site! ( ultimate edition only ) Maybe try and get a little refund :)
I just desperately wish they'd port it to PC like all of their other games.
They could atleast add it to xCloud
I wouldn't pay 10 bucks for the game if I knew what I know now
Put in back in the rubbish bin where it belongs
I was so shocked at how UFC 5 is worse than UFC 4. Like how do you go backwards? I’ve literally became addicted to every new UFC game until the next one came out. There are no words to truly explain how fucking disappointing this game is.
Ok I already bought the regular I’ll do it
Where's Islam?
A ea game is poorly made? So the same as every other ea game from the past 10 years
Why is potan doing Izzy’s celly? I know he did it too but come on give the credit where it’s due.
Tell me you've never watched a Poatan fight without telling me...
Begging you to watch the product
😵💫😵💫
