I believe youre right, I just reread it and it said to throw a hook you will no longer need the stick but hold the bumper and the stick. If you cant use buttons I will rent this game first and probably not even buy it, that ruins the whole game for me.
Yeah people are begging EA to bring the buttons back, but I don't think they can because it would throw all the timing off now. They've set it for only sticks, so there's no going back. You never know, hopefully the stick play might just be amazing. We can hope :D
How old is that article? I just read an article the other day after a mag tested it and they said for power punches its the bumper and a button, maybe that article you have is old.
Just a couple days unfortunatley. Theres debate going on here about it...

I don't know how I will adjust to this. Although Ive been learning how to use the sticks, its nowhere near as good or reliable as the buttons.
As some consolation, they're saying that the sticks are far more responsive this time around allowing for chained combos and stuff...
Its a shame, but it wont stop me from buying it. I guess button users will have to get their training in on the sticks with FN3 before FN4 hits.
I read you can use the buttons what do you mean? The stick is too hard and tiresome thats gets old quick. I read to throw hard punches it will be the bumper and and button. So to my understanding you can still use the buttons, everybody does.
Bad news man, EA confirmed that this game will be sticks only.
I know they had originally said otherwise, but...
Yeah there's huge backlash going on in forums over the decision. Its a bad move, people should be able to use whatever config they want.
Button users get looked down upon by stick users, I guess they think it takes more skill to use the sticks, which is just bullshit really.
GAMESPY ->
'Button mashing has been banished. Round 4 is going to force you to use the right stick to punch. After years of enduring randomly button-mashing boxers, I'm relieved to hear that they'll have to work a little harder to land some blows. Perhaps to compensate, you can now chain together multiple attacks with the right stick. For example, a one-two combo can be inputted before the animation of the first punch is complete. It sounds cool, but I'm a little skeptical until I've played it. EA promises that you'll be able to cancel commands with a button tap, lest you waste stamina. I need to try it and see how the dynamics balance out.'
Im one of those guys who will probably use Mora, I love to beat people with lesser talent. FNR3 everybody pick Ali at heavy, I never use him, but beat him with everybody else.
I'm with that, I only get a kick out of playing against the computer with my low stats create a fighter.
What does everyone think about the buttons being removed as a control option? Are you a stick or a button user?
I'll play with both but I'm more of a button player myself, allows me to take quicker advantage of openings and such. I just find the sticks to be a little too restricting.
Nah Tyson is slighty off they could of done a better job
but glad to have him in the game period...
And i would'nt be chuffed having to pay for extra fighters etc
leave that idea out..
haha, yeah it does

ahh shit, looks bad ass.
If anything it'll be a bigger roster, hell i'll pay for certain fighters. If they make anyo f my favourite fighter DLC i'll end up buying them.
Yea thats pretty much how they'll get us, knowing that if they release a pack with our favorite boxers we will not hesitate to buy it. Lets hope they dont release alot of packs because i'm going to be broke.:frown:
hope the devs are like criterion and give dlc for free.....thats the way it should be......but of course its ea so theyre gonna milk the shit out of us fans....
Well it's EA....
Criterion gave away free DLC for a while, but they just released a huge amount of premium DLC in one big go. Which means I won't be able to buy most of it for a while, I bought the legendary cars and the aggresion Toy cars pack though...

looking good, the only thing that I'm worry about is what EA might do for DLC, for some reason I think they have a good plan to make us pay more for the game somehow.

They still haven't got the other fighters (other than Ali/Tyson) Bodies right.
Wright and Moras forearms and biceps look odd, the different parts of the arms don't join together well and the main bodies look off the abs especially
