How the hell do you get a fair fight

[Birdy]

Its constantly just people spamming, getting you in a pointless clinch (seriously why is that in the game none of the attacks even hit) until one of you falls down, i try not to be the guy that just spams attacks, but all these level 1s just spam and they win lmao. Like they connect one punch and then half my health is gone or they break off my arm.

Gotta admit its annoying when you get someone who just spams attacks or constantly hugs you.
Basicly if you dont do a move till the animation finishes then it shouldn't be classed as a hit it should be a feint.
ATM its actualy easier to win by spam than it is to use proper moves.

Yeah exactly, i still dont get the whole clinch thing, me and a friend have tested it, NONE of the attacks connect. NONE. They go past the opponent or they dont register as a hit.

They should add a push action to push the clinch

There is one if you press back + block

yeah but you get right back into one lol

[Pakkuwakku]

true, it can feel dumb when that happens

i found the best way to counter it is to spam even faster than they do. Eventually they will fall over like a dumb idiot. it will look retarded, yes, but until the devs do something about spamming moves you can't do anything besides spamming back.

Just keep a distance and use neutral kicks to send them flying. If they get close do a clinch break.

Spamming is super easy to counter. Just perfect block/strike, or clinch break them to the ground. People are predictable when they spam.

What do you qualify as spamming, because there area limited number of attacks, and a very limited number of them work as openers.

the heavy overhand hits are simply the two best options you have in many cases, and if you're defensive then back + left kick, then back + right kick is a good follow up in case the first missed if you're going defensive, at least against AI.

I would say now that even though a lot of my fights look spammy, they actually aren't I'm not just hammering a single set of attacks but deliberately pulling off chains of hits based on what my opponent is doing in rapid succession.

It's taken me a while to get into the rhythm of the combat of this game, but there are ways players might fight that look like they're simply hammering away at buttons but are very deliberate.

Like if I don't want somebody clinching me up and we're spinning around, I will pull a left hook, right body shot combo then follow up with heavy overhands to create distance. It all happens very fast but I've found thats one of my best go-to ways to stop the ai from constantly trying to clinch me up.

The AI doesn't like hooks and body shots, it's tricky for them to deal with if you're just outside clinch range.

Also, take into account what a lot of UFC matches look when two aggressive strikers get into the ring, they're basically spamming the same hits over and over often until their opponent ♥♥♥♥♥ up or succumbs. That's just actual fighting.

like bruh no spamming
