Anyone still play Fight Night Champion?

[-Huey-]

So I finished watching a South Park episode(The Coon) on Netflix and was about to get online and start beasting on MW3, as usual, but I instead popped in the old Fight Night Champion game just for the hell of it. I was quickly reminded why I stopped playing that shit of a game.

First of all I was using my 160 lbs, 5'11 Erik Morales CAB that has a reach of 77" which I bought every Gold Pack possible for and still lost by KO to a guy that was 5'8, 147lbs with a reach of 73"

It seemed like my opponent could throw like a 20 punch combo from the outside and me, I would throw like 4 or 5 and my stamina would drop to zero. Every time i threw punches it seemed like i would slide backwards and move forward every time my opponent swung, kinda like a magnet effect.

Another thing that irritates me is how when I would land like 3 hard punches I wouldn't even move my opponent but he would stun me with a jab. A fucking jab!

Please note that I got every gold pack and applied it in every section and messed with the boxer growth section: skills and athleticism yet got outboxed from the outside by a midget with a short reach.

Definitely sounds like bad programming. I can't tell you why certain devs suck at it and others don't. It's like they're missing logic in their brains.

off topic, but I was watching video of 'Hitman: Absolution' a week ago, and during a walkthrough of an introductory level there's a scene where a car bomb goes off amidst a huge crowd. Now we know logically anybody within earshot of a huge explosion will hightail it out of there.

I actually sat and watched in an alpha build of the game how it didn't dawn on the devs that a delayed reaction of several seconds to a BOMB going off around a crowd is ******ly unrealistic.

As a fan you have to metaphorically yell at these guys in the dev stages of game production so they don't hurt their own product in the end with not correcting easily fixable oversights. So if Fight Night has a fan forum the developers visit, you definitely want to hang out there when the next game is about to roll around.

I still play the Super Punch-Out that's on the Gamecube Fight Night with B-Hop on the cover.

Some days I do good, some days Bob Charley beats my ass

FNC sucks!! Round 4 was 10x better.

its pretty easy not many fighters can actually throw a lot of combos, so u need to be smart with your punches, n its about punching n not getting punch, so when your opponent tries to punch u make him miss n punch him his stamina will be lower n ur punch will have more effect on him so his stamina will decrease a lot, ive beaten solid dudes with good record they pick ray rob or ray leonard n i beat them with winky or monzon, the less punches u land the harder they are cause your stamina is higher

My middleweight was like 24-2 online but i quickly got bored .
Once everybody got a hold of exploits that started in fight night round 4 and carried on to fight night champion, the game became too monotonous and doesn't feel anything like boxing

About 90 percent the online community fight similar all using the exploits that came from fn4 .
