Sorry for bustin your balls. Didn't really see it from your side. EDIT- doubt it's going to help your mood but I don't have any system since 2004 so I'm stuck with 2003's Pride FC and the highly esteemed UFC Sudden Impact. So I can feel that.

I bet every dollar I had. Half on Lyoto and the other half on a parlay with Lyoto Machida, Lyoto Machida, and Lyoto Machida LOL. Seriously though I bet everything on Lyoto and Hughes. And I'm so happy, there's never been a main card so easy to bet on. I only mean Hughes and Lyoto, especially no being huge favorites.

Haha, saw this coming a mile away when I saw the change. But yeah, you gotta give em something. I can't afford some ps3 let alone play online. My internet is 1 step up from dialup and my computer is from 97. That being said of coarse I wouldn't have the game, but you get it. Online's a bitch. Having a tourney would be great for the people with those capabilities, a blast really, but it should be an alternate prize. I don't want to be a douchebag to Mike Tycoon who I know will respond for us but it was his messup not saying to do it on expert, which was a question I had myself. So you can't punish for that right? I mean you can but that would be most uncool.

OK. Thanks for the reply.

OK. Thank you for clarifying that. I didn;t know agression meant power. Just thought it meant more output from your fighter. That actually helps. But I'd still like to see a division there so you could be averagely agressive, waiting (like Rampage or someone similar) and still be dangerously explosive with TDs and ground strikes. But still thank you for clarifying that.

Oh, yeah, it's 1 o clock so sorry if something doesn't make sense.

I saw a rarity in fight finishes TKO via slam. I was thinking, we should be able to choose different tactics of play based on physical and technical abilities. For instance, say you have strength as one of your highes physical attributes, you may choose to use the powerhouse tactic. 3 tactics that came up with- Powerhouse- stronger bigger fighters- effective against smaller fighters and those that like to be on their backs. It would cost more energy for takedowns, GnP, and Clinchfighting, but it would be explosive and physically dominating with the ability to power out of subs you should have not escaped (losing a ton of energy) A higher chance of ground and clinch damage and a chance to Slam the energy out of someone/tko them Balance- obvious and Technician- Supports less powerful fighters and uses less energy, but lower chance of ground damage via slams/ GnP. More accurate, but less explosive. Equally strong on back and precise on feet. For instance- you're a better wrestler than your opponenent and you have a better clinch. You can't explosively take him down but his takedowns are even less likely of succedding. You can gain positional advantages easier but can't damage as much. And you use less energy so late round subs are more likely. This is just an example, be it a long ass one. But I think it could durastically increase the importance of tactics in the game if there was any way to implement it.

Yeah I hate Rogers so it's kind of fun for me but at the same time damn! Why did he take the fight? Seriously, there's nothing for him to gain than experiance. He's going to lose his pretty undefeated record and likely be finished or look so bad against Arlovski it'll be equal to being finished. It's just not fair. P.S.- Getting knocked out by 3 massive hitters (years apart) that could put horses to sleep does not man you have a glass chin.

There are two bars rating cardio and it seems like it should be simple but I can't figure it out. Does anyone (maybe everyone lol) understand what this display means per bar? Or what the color of the back bar represents?

If I completely ignore certain stats like say kicks or clinchwork or Muay Thai will they drop?

Machida would win if he could get past the reach. I think he can. Brock can't come close to taking him down. Machia runs away and circles. Brocks strength is his incredible blend of Power and speed, he is the Mike Tyson of mma. But I think he can't cut Machida off, isn't faster, can't hit Machida, can't take him down. So Machida wins one of the most technically brilliant and drunkenly booed fights in history. I would seriously pick Lyoto. That specific matchup favors him too far. And just as a useless sidenote, I beleive he fought at HW in Japan. And fought BJ at HW.

When you go bankrupt you lose your VIP. This is to prevent cheating and wrongdoing. But if someone goes bankrupt instead of killing the VIP you Kill that persons ability to use that one or all of the VIP features outside of fight related stuff for say 2 months. 2ed offense- loss of VIP. I mean, how many people are going to screw up more than once on that one? and if they were trying to cheat how beneficial would it be? I think that would solve the problem. And I do think it's pretty crappy to make a guy lose 6 fighters and all VIP advantages in the fight stats. If nothing else it would make sense to let them keep their fighters and extras that they payed for without the promotions and gyms/products.

Yeah, I think it would be good to have a cap or a limitation. I hop the game starts counting in game weeks, so every week is equivilant to 3. Since the fighters age that way. They should grow that way and fight that way. Also, I think they should make you declare a subsection of your region to officially hold your show in each event, and if there are a ton of show in that section bigger companies would steal sales away from lower competitors. So also you can't overexpose your company, for instance, you hold a show in northern Cali every 3 weeks to a month and your overexposed, noone cares to come. So you have to mix it up. Plus it gives orgs ways to put eachother under.

I like how you put that, smokers.

Just an idea but I thought it would be an interesting thought to ad the ability for top (RICH) promotions and nutrition/clothing product companies to pay game money to put their ads on the site. The sides are kind of bare and I think it would bring you into the game world a bit more to see some Bushido ad on the side or on the forums or something. What do you think? Some of those leftover grosses used for site ads. Noone else has done anything like that from what I remember.

Yeah, that's true. and I wish they'd allow non exclusive contrracts. That option would be nice.

A merger idea I think would be interesting. If your company is going under or you are done with it an interesting option would be to sell off the assets, or possibly a merger option. Imagine a Vegas based org at #2 merging with a Rio org listed at #1, boom, top international company. Maybe you would have to choose a base, but two powerhouse companies merging and combining rosters. Maybe in the future there could be a fighter trade too. That would make a fun game of negotiation. One company abandons 145 division so they trade their lone star of the division for a star at 205. Interesting I think.

I think a list of greatest matchups, as well as highest grossing events, or something like that would set a good goal for the promoters to shoot past. A lot of organizations are building their champs up against mediocre fighters or nobodies. If there is the prospect of claiming a top 10 all time anticipated matchup then there would be incentive to always make top fights happen. Especially in ranked events, or something of that nature. It adds its own depth. Do I risk my golden boy or do I puss out? Do I risk my undefeated up and comers record or do I give him a low ranked walkthrough fight?

I think it would be cool to add a fan base to the fighters. You would go to a fighters page and there would be a fan addition button. You click on it and boom, you're now his fan. Maybe there could also be an option to be an anonymous or listed fan. But I think it would be cool. Maybe the feature could also give updates on fighter activity like signing a fight or fight results, signing with orgs/sponsort etc.

I think it would emerse people a little more in the fight world if we were able to have fight poles. You would log in and go to an upcoming event page and you could pick the winner. Sounds simple, but I think a simple fight pole would add interest to the fighters and organizations. Everyone does a little bit of research on the fighters so they can predict who will win. And there is much more interest in looking at the org pages for other fighters.

I think it's a great improvement. What would also be great is a choice of strategies such as pulling guard and sweeping in contrast with usual shoot for the takedown. Or leg kicking the first round then stick and move the secon, then take down and G&P the third. You know. If something like that sounds too complicated it probably is, meaning simplifying orders is necessarry, but if you think someone is going for the same thing every fight you could MURDER him with the complex ability to set future tactics. If that sounds right, I'm in a hurry. Also if nothing else, I would love to be able to set energy expendeture from each position, like, on bottom vs on top, or if in the clinch, go for a ton of damage or chill or use a ton of energy to explode for an escape. You know, controlling energy usage and in what position, and for offensive or escaping purposes.
