Throw some punches, back off and repeat

Pretty much every fight so far.

wow just like boxing
but really you can be the change you want to see. play a high pressure inside fight and use the clinch instead of backing off

[BaconPancakes]

the meta is to just circle ring and get points with jab its nearly impossible to cut off ring or land when someone is on the move this is super frustrating for me as I love to cut off ring in other boxing games but this one they just slide right past u and u don't get to get a shot on them when they do try to break out.
another main issue is ive seen people run around the ring at round 8 and up with no penalty that ♥♥♥♥ is tiring and moving around like with no penalty is a joke

lol imagine that, its like formula 1, just go round and round a track until you finish. you can play how you want to play man, get on the inside and learn to slip and counter, play on the outside... do whatever. perhaps look at the boxers individual stats you are planning to use and see where the strength is, some are stronger on the outside, some on the inside, some throw a more damaging left, some a right, some have devastating uppercuts... its deep, its very deep. they even have perks based on their strengths in real life, tyson fury has an extra lease of life after being knocked down for example... learn the fighters and fight how you want to fight and enjoy it, its boxing, if you need to punch back off and repeat then so what, its boxing, the idea is to hit and not be hit.

If real boxing was like this, nobody would watch it.

Dawm the guy just understood that this game was boxing and not street fighter.

movement speed decreasing with later rounds and not stamina would help with late fight chasedowns. I dont think they should tie it to stamina since its pretty easy to end fights with 90 stam still

I don't want to button mash, but the constant backing off in order to restore stamina feels off.

I understand this is early days and expect major gameplay updates over time.

ive noticed this, such an awful game loop, AI throws punches falls back holding block to regain stam then comes forward again, needs all sorts of work this game does, can they fix this game? who knows only time will tell.
