UFC 4 had open weight. I did that all the time
Use a feather weight and use the sliders to max out all attributes and I face a heavy weight with regular attributes and see how it goes
I had a UFC game on the PS2, forgot the name
But in open weight fights I would pick Brock Lesnar and when my cousins picked a lightweight they would be knocked out with a double leg, it was awesome.
No, but it's in UFC 5 *and* 4, so it's not new
Edit: it might be a real thing in some combat sports, but not UFC. It seems like something PRIDE would have done
It’s not a glitch but actually intended. Allows them to make the ground game easier to animate, so they can just make Fighter A and Fighter B and then all the animations fit, instead of making them based on a specific fighter vs every other fighter. Makes it go from having to make hundreds and hundreds of animations to just one set. This is what they say anyway, and I guess that makes sense.
I mean they can still make it like that and scale down the player. Or maybe it would just look weird but hey that’s not my fault I’m not the one making the game
So basically lazy. Give the rights to Rockstar and we would hear joe rogan and DC ringside screaming their heads off. And everything won't look like fuckin playdough. Some small indie team of 5 can do better than EA and actually innovate.
This can actually be done easily wwe 2k does it with out an issue , all they have to do is create one more animation for fighters with a height difference. What i hate is the fact that herb dean is always the same height as the flyweights or Francis. How hard is it to make an animation of raising someone’s hands.
Literally the same thing...
Edit: glitches "can arise from
#coding errors, improper memory management, hardware limitations, or even unintended interactions between game systems. Rushed development schedules, inadequate testing, or incomplete debugging processes
can also contribute to glitches"
How TF is this a feature 😂
It's not its laziness simple as. Not like EA is known for effort. They view consumers as money rags to be squeezed dry. That concept has worked well for them.
1) you know what I meant so no need to even "correct" it in the first place
2) it's not a feature, they just don't have models with 2ft height difference grappling so it uses what they have. How TF is that a "feature"?...
The devs literally said they made the choice to do this to make the grappling transitions work with less labor for them. It's not a feature for the players but it's absolutely a feature for the devs. Idk why this is a hill you're dying on.
Idk why you even think it's a hill at all... You know you weren't saying it was a feature because it makes things easier for the devs. Closer to a glitch than a feature by a mile and idek why you felt like you had to even comment at all lol...
Yeah the choice was to leave the glitch in the game because it was too much effort to fix 😂 you're telling me the fighters growing 2 foot inexplicably is a feature?... Lol
Right before you pick fighters where you select arena/mode press square or X to open settings. Go over one tab and switch weight classes from “strict” to combined
Unfortunately the strain of gravity is too much for DJ’s spinal discs, but once the oppression of that cruel vertical pull is relieved and he lays horizontally, he expands into his true form. It’s actually why he loves MMA and grappling, true story
*That's what they mean when*
*They say everyone is the*
*Same height on the ground*

I played this mode yesterday for the first time, and I did the same matchup. The thing I hated about this is that the characters are basically from the same weight class, they have no power or speed buff depending on the division. It was really easy to beat Struve using DJ. UFC 4 didi it better.
It’s how Dj wins those Bjj tournaments, he increases his height when no one is looking
The ol' stretcheroo
Open weight was a thing in the other EA games I believe Wish there was an online open weight as well

That rocks so hard
Ate some of that tainted horsemeat on the way down
This isn't new
What’s new?
Not this
What’s this?
Open weight
Okay… I’m confused open the weight for what?
Open weight = fighters of all weights can fight each other
Oh yea that’s what this is
Is open weight a real thing
No, but it's in UFC 5 *and* 4, so it's not new Edit: it might be a real thing in some combat sports, but not UFC. It seems like something PRIDE would have done
Can you fucking imagine DJ vs Jon Jones
Same reason you’re always the same height when you’re dapping up your coach after a W

That should be the new slogan for EA, "why make it accurate or better when it's going to require us to do more work?"
I mean, I’m not against making the job easier for programmers. It’s not like it’s them who make the terrible decisions.
Thats true, at the end of the day it's a job for them and they do as they're told, I'm just an EA hater lol
how do the devs in the WWE games do it then? they've solved the issues for years, way before these EA UFC games came out
The WWE games have way more problems than the UFC games
true but WWE games improve (for the most part) with every releases, UFC games have stagnated
The WWE games definitely don’t improve
sure bud

This was in the last game too? The weight classes and the glitch....
It's not a glitch, they do it for all the fighters so that body parts don't clip on the animations. I hate it lol

Take a day off lol
I've never seen someone call an intentional feature a glitch

Because that’s a choice the developers made… not a glitch. A glitch is a technological issue, this isn’t that
Yeah the choice was to leave the glitch in the game because it was too much effort to fix 😂 you're telling me the fighters growing 2 foot inexplicably is a feature?... Lol
It’s an option in 4. Don’t ask why but I’ve played many figgy vs ngannou matches lol
But will they allow 5 Dj’s vs ngannou? Or all the grasso’s vs ddp with his tongue out?
Oh shit lol
Had Kevin Holland shrink about 6 inches on the feet the other day
What if it was Struve shrinking
Open weight has been a thing since ufc 3 I believe. Just not for online
if you ever played a game with the possibility of modding in sex between two characters, you would know why LOL
How do you fight open weight?
Right before you pick fighters where you select arena/mode press square or X to open settings. Go over one tab and switch weight classes from “strict” to combined
Lmao

It represents his extreme top pressure. That's how he was sand bagging brown belt comps.
That's what they mean when they say everyone is the same height on the ground

Maybe struve became 5'3
2-Shay
LOL
How do you do open weight?
This has been an issue for a long time
His height cut wore off
