EA Sports just released an exclusive list of five-star fighters for the upcoming UFC 6 video game and fans are having a field day.<\/p>\n
On Friday, EA Sports was hoping to provide a bit of a teaser for fight fans, but instead they nearly incited an online riot. That\u2019s because the gaming company unveiled all of the fighters that will have five-star ratings for UFC 6. Apparently EA Sports is rating fighters based on their absolute primes, which appears to be an unpopular decision after the fact.<\/p>\n
Check out the official five-star fighters below:<\/p>\n
As expected, fight fans were not happy with some of these ratings. It\u2019s to be expected considering many gamers have their favorite fighters and will undoubtedly come to their defense, but some of these EA Sports rankings are truly janky.<\/p>\n
Check out the fan reaction below from Friday\u2019s release and let us know your thoughts!<\/p>\n
\u201cThis rating system with everybody in there prime sucks . Anybody hyped about this game isn\u2019t looking for simulation MMA game. They get farther and farther from that every year and I\u2019ve played every UFC game because it\u2019s all there is but I\u2019m probably skipping this one.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cF\u2014k your dumb ass star ratings, give us overalls back.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThis reminds of the Incredibles movie when Syndrome said \u201cEveryone can be super! And when everyone\u2019s super, no one will be.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHow on earth does Conor have higher punch power than Ilia? YALL just make shit up with no rhyme or reason.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt blows my mind that you guys are using that shitty Topuria model from UFC 4 that looks nothing like him when you have a brand new model that you showed in the trailer that is a thousand times better. Makes zero sense.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThis game will be mega ass. Y\u2019all literally created alter egos so you could have the option of using a fighter in their prime, but what did you turn it into? More micro transactions that nobody with a brain would buy. Now the UFC 6 game will suck because every fighter is 4-5 stars.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201dHow tf does Conor have more punching power than Ilia? You could argue he\u2019s more precise with his strikes but sheer raw power? Ilia should be 100.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cSo is every fighter going to be 4 and a half stars again or are we actually going to try to be accurate this game?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cBy far the stupidest rating system in all sports gaming.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cDumbass star system.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThat Conor is the standard Conor when he fought Dustin the 3rd time? How tf does he have 100 in power, speed, and accuracy?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHW Jones all 100 is a joke.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"EA Sports just released an exclusive list of five-star fighters for the upcoming UFC 6 video game and…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":690715,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[570],"tags":[64,63,786,40762,785,85,1396],"class_list":["post-690714","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mma","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-fighting","tag-latest-ufc-mma-news","tag-mma","tag-sports","tag-ufc-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/690714","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=690714"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/690714\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/690715"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=690714"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=690714"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=690714"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
