WeвЂ™ve already seen this with Star Wars Battlefront 2, but EA obviously hasnвЂ™t learned the lesson. That means youвЂ™ll need to either grind through challenges or spend tons of money to have a competitive team. Every fighter, move, skill and perk you need to be successful is locked behind loot boxes. EA is back to its money-hungry, greedy practices with Ultimate Team. This mode is very problematic, while also not being that big of an issue (if you avoid it). I donвЂ™t know if ranked online matches will run as smoothly, since that isnвЂ™t included in the beta. I fought a handful of people online and matches were made quickly with no lag while playing. If you do take the time to actually watch the submission unfold, youвЂ™re either going to have your move broken out of, or youвЂ™ll be the one tapping in no time. The fighters are going through the motions of fighting to lock in each move, but you donвЂ™t get to see that. The only problem with the submissions is how it keeps your focus entirely on the UI. Advancing a submission all the way to the last step and getting your opponent to tap out feels just as rewarding as landing a huge knock-out blow. The system manages to feel like a struggle between two people, even if youвЂ™re just moving a few bars across a screen. Submission finishes are also exciting, if you can lock one in. This in-ring gameplay shows the shine we can expect when all the other weight classes unlock at launch. ItвЂ™s a little thing, but being able to punch while on the move goes a long way in helping fights flow more naturally and look more realistic. Thanks to a revolutionary new motion capture system developed for the game, UFC 3 fighters shuffle, skip and move around just like their real-life counterparts. Once the bell rings, fighter movement is a major highlight. Combat is fast and intense, with most matches ending in the first round. Once in a fight, itвЂ™s clear how smooth UFC 3 can be. As it stands now, seeing everything the beta has to offer takes around an hour, maybe even less. I understand not wanting to give away the entire game in a beta, but even one more division would have helped extend my interest. This means you can fight with big names like Conor McGregor and Nate Diaz, but not others like Demetrious Johnson and Daniel Cormier or women like Ronda Rousey and Cris Cyborg. Additionally, only the Lightweight division is included. The UFC 3 beta only includes three different modes: a quick online mode, a quick one-off fight against a computer mode and UFC Ultimate Team. While the beta is fairly pared down in terms of gameplay options, it does show there is a lot to be excited about in EA SportsвЂ™ latest.
