I hate a lot of the game and haven't played it nearly as much as I played 09. really sucks, since I paid full price for it and love the roster, but the gameplay is super neutered.

So I have a few questions about Career Mode: 1. What is the best way to schedule all the training? (learning moves, stats and cardio/speed/strength) 2. What is the best way to get all 50 points in free sparring? (the most I ever get is 26 tops) 3. What is the best way to divide all the points for stats? 4. How do I keep my cardio/speed/strength up while learing moves and sparring? That's it for now. Any other tips would help too. Thanks. 1. Here's what I always do, never promote yourself to pro, after about 4 amateur wins, you will be forced to turn pro. During the 4 week periods between amateur fights, work on getting out attributes to 30, once they're at 30 they will not decay (same at 50, and 70). When you turn pro, go to Team Quest or Minnesota MMA and learn the suplex to side control from double underhooks. Get that to level 3. Then you can start sparring. Spam the living crapout of the suplex during sparring. Try to get in a few subs if their stamina is low enough, eventually you will be able to get 1 sub per slam. Then work on getting every skill to 30. As far as the gym upgrades go, I always do this: First upgrade: start with cardio, imo it's the most important attribute. Second upgrade: sparring. Third upgrade: speed/strength Fourth upgrade: whichever one you didn't pick in the third upgrade. then just sparring upgrades until you max it out, after that it doesn't matter. 2. Covered that above w/ the suplex 3. It doesn't really matter in the beginning, you don't need to be as well rounded as you should be in the UFC. You can have somethings at 0 and it would'nt affect your fighter too much. 4. Keep them at 30, 50 and 70 and they won't decay. some more tips: While you're waiting for our gym upgrade, if everything is at 30/50/70, you can either start sparring to save up points to make the next sparring upgrade easy, or start learning moves. Don't just learn a bunch of random moves. Pick your moves wisely and level them up to level 3 ESPECIALLY IF THEY ARE TRANSITIONS OR SLAMS on harder difficulties if you suplex for example is not at level 3 you will get reversed into mount every single time. Hope I helped a few of you guys.

This game ing sucks! I hate the sway system. How is the sway system a bad thing? It deepens the standup game, so you actually have to think about throwing it. I can understand hating the subs, but the sway system only has four directions to sway in. Sounds like you're frustrated because you can't get the hang of it, because it's not hard AT ALL.

Time it rght and you can hit three of the straight lefts right to the chin before the guy can blink again. And at the right distance, the flying head kick makes for one heck of a counter strike. Especially since from that range, guys are coming in with looping power strikes. If you suck at swaying, use your distance.

Retired at 50-0-0. 8x KO of the Night. 3x Fight of the Night 2x Submission of the Night 2x UFC Champion (Won the Heavyweight Belt, then dropped to LHW) All Sponsors at 5 stars.
The only 2 fights that went outside the 1st round were both submission wins, and it was only because I lost my submission attempt at the last seconds of the first.
I've unlocked the HOF achievement, the Career Mode Completion achievement, the Level 3 Move achievement, and the Champion vs Champion achievement all in one career.
All I'm really needing now (outside the online achievements) is the Ultimate Moments achievement, the Pride achievement, and the Submission in 60 Seconds on Hard achievement.
Anyone have any tips on the last one?

Anyone have any tips on the last one? i was using Maia when I got the 60 second sub on expert. I might be confusing the weight class but i'm pretty sure drew mcfedries has the lowest sub defense at middleweight. just run in, clinch up, suplex, arm triangle/kimura and hope for the best. anyway, i finally retired my first expert CAF. i retired at 46-5, 3x LW Champ 2x WW champ 3x sub of the night 1x fight of the night 3x knockout of the night 1x fighter of the year in my 12th year ;D I'll probably start a MW on expert now.

Man, with that many fights what are all your skill rankings? All 100's? Also, how many moves did you acquire?

Actually, I don't play online at all. I moved a few months ago and still don't have internet. I had to take my 360 to a friend's house to download TUF guys and do the update. I'm hopefully getting internet soon, so I can get my fighter online and try and get some of those achievements.
Thanks for the video and hints though. Can't wait to try it.

Also, how many moves did you acquire? eh, i could have, but i just got lazy toward the end and let everything hang at 70 except my attributes. i just maintained those all the way up between fights. i learned Chuck's right straight, Muay Thai snap kick (extremely useful), ducking left hook, rubber guard, suplex, all level 3.

I should be getting this game next week. I can't wait. Really enjoyed last year's game and after watching a few YouTube video's I think I won't be disappointed.

Anyone have this happen to them.
When playing versus my cousin whoever has the player 2 controller is able to use the charge method to do subs while player 1 can do nothing. And it doesn't matter which controller is controller 2.

Honestly, no. I haven't had much submission issues after the update, outside of THQ's refusal to give any type of real tutorial or info on how the system really works.
"Don't hold it too long, because you might run out of stamina" isn't exactly explaining how it works. And I don't even bother spinning unless I'm on the defensive.

Had a good time with this game today. Played as Alan Belcher, Efrain Escudero, Terry Etim, Antoni Hardonk, Gabriel Gonzaga, and Cain Velasquez. Haven't played the game in awhile and I was glad I gave it a shot today. Gotta find more time to play this game.

Had a weird glitch in Career Mode last night. I'm a Middleweight and fought Sho Gun in a Champion vs. Champion fight which I won. During the post fight interview I called out a former opponent who beat me earlier in my career and decided to challenge him again since I improved a lot since then.
So after it takes me back to the menu, I get an email asking what division I want to defend the belt in. I picked LHW figuring it would just forget about the challenge I made in the interview but it didn't. I get another email tell me about my next opponent but it comes up with an empty stat box and portrait with "00" on it. I get back to the calendar and it says 0 weeks to fight which was odd, so I chose ACTION and it takes me to the match card but I'm not on it at all and someone else is facing my opponent. I press MY MATCH and the game freezes from there.
Luckily I didn't save at all after my last fight so I made sure to not defend the LHW and stay middleweight.

Yeah, I've had it freeze up on me a few times, but nothing like that. I've had it ask me if I want to change weight classes, which lead to my record being reset.

I just started actually playing the game this week and I'm already sick of it. It just feels too similar to the first one and I honestly don't care to play it much anymore.
