Help with game please

[ellis_d69]

Ok, I clearly suck at this game, so I'd love some pointers please.

I've played 8 games online and lost them all (well, not strictly true, the last one I had got to the 9 count and for some bizarre reason, the other guy surrendered???)

They are all by knockout too.

Now, I really struggle to knock anyone else out. I have played about 30 games offline, and only won 3 via knockout, two with Wilder, one with Hatton. I land a lot of power punches, so why am I not dropping opponents?

Online, I am dropped regularly, but I've never dropped anyone. Not one single time. I don't understand this. I land lots of power punches but nobody ever goes down. Even offline I struggle to drop people.

Getting up from being dropped, what am I doing wrong? Is it supposed to be this difficult? Or am I doing something wrong? I just hold down the one button on each side of the controller (RT I think they call it) and try to guide the line into the boxes. But it always seems extremely difficult for me to get the, both in at the same time......

I seem to be able to box alright; I can outbox the computer on amateur and intermediate most of the time and gain a points win. But I'd like to be able to knock people out and get up from knockdowns!

Also, I struggle to get down and land body shots, and I can't seem to do uppercuts. Body shots and uppercuts are always embarrassingly low on my stats card after the fights.

Like I say, I suck at this game, but I'd like to get better.... Who can help me please?!

Right click > Manage > uninstall.

It's not you bro the game couldn't be in a worse spot,
I'd just wait ti'll the devs hire people who actually understand boxing and video game development because at this point it seems we're watching a bunch of clueless devs figuring it out as they go.

[ellis_d69]

That maybe the case, but it doesn't explain how I can land 50 power punches and my opponent lands 20 but he drops me 3 times in a fight? Clearly he has managed to land knockdowns and knockouts. As have all the other people who have knocked me out. So it's not like it isn't possible.

Try MK may be? It looks your type of game. If you don't understand how to box forum can't help. And knock-out hits not the strongest ones, but invisible and unpredictable for opponent either IRL or in game.

You're probably fighting hackers if that's the case, the game is filed with them because there's no anticheat.

Same here,
I can do a series of hard hitting clean hits several times in a row and nothing and then this sugar ray clown bops me once or twice and my character is dazed...

The game is stuffed at the moment. Only way to win is to catch the opponent with a shot when they are low on stamina.

if your getting KO'ed often your simply throwing to many punches in bunches. if you get hit with little stamina your out

It sounds like you may be a bit too aggressive. The game seemingly is more about managing your stamina bar than anything else really.

If you allow your bar to go empty and an opponent counters or powers you I think you have a high chance of being Dazed into a knock down. Try being a bit more conservative with your punches and read the fighter of your choice abilities they do have different fighting styles.

Yes the game is a complete mess right now and riddled with cheats n hacks... But for the most part you can still have fun and some good matches.

so to recap don't let your stam drain all the way in a round. This will help you in the long run as well. And try to play to your boxers strengths.

Always one moron. I box in real life, and I clearly stated I can box on this and win on points.

Is that the case? Right, well that's a massive help straight away. So it's possible that I am allowing my stamina to hit zero and then getting caught. I do sometimes throw a lot of combinations so this is definitely a possibility of what is happening.

I'm not sure it's always the case though, as I usually try and fight on the backfoot, throw a few jabs and hooks here and there, in and out quick so I don't get caught. But it's definitely something to look into, cheers.

Yep, thanks, I'll do this. I never even realised once your stamina is drained it's easier to be KO'd. I tried to hold back a little because I realised it stops you from landing power punches.

You also retain a whole lot more stam per round. If you are very cautious with this by round 5ish you will notice your opponent getting gassed quickly while you still have full stam. Then they will say you use hacks cause your stam didnt go down! lol

When i first started i was super aggressive i went 0-6 in ranked, I started to manage my stam bar and now im 19-7 the 1 loss came from an obvious cheater and i pretty much stopped playing in ranked, But my unranked record is something like 60-15 not as many cheaters in unranked but they still exist.

hmm more dubious fb about this game, looks like i'll be waiting a while, although for me in fnc, out of 7 fights in career i've only managed the single ko and my record is 2-4-1-1 ie 2 wins 4 losses 1 draw in with 1 ko, , and even that was only just, the game is to hit but not get hit, so are you achieving the second part of the fundamentals correctly? or indeed does this mechanic even function correctly in the game? , i would imagine this would be key to achieving any victory over anyone
