Hiding the various bars? **** you EA sports. God damn it. You can no longer fight tactically waiting for your opponents energy and stamina to go down. I guess it will just be spamming to the finish from here on out.

The game will actually play more sim-like by not being able to see your opponents HUD. It will actually take strategy to beat your opponent instead of going full blast because your see his health our stamina low.

Removing the hub is a crap, imo. As mentioned in a different thread, there just aren't enough indicators to show us if the other fighter is hurt, fatigued, etc. It's actually MORE realistic to have the hub because in real life, you can pick up if your opponent is really getting hurt and fatigued. The only indication your opponent is hurt is when he gets stunned.

Very disappointed in that. Everything else is good but I don't see how removing the hub is fixing the online problems, fix the damn stamina and spamming issues, NOT THE HUD! Which reminds, me, when the hell are the patches/updates coming for those problems? The biggest issue the fans are complaining about is spamming and disconnects, etc. I never even heard of anyone complaining about the huds.

Stamina should fix the so-called spamming. People have fought with the HUD off and they are loving it for online play.

Fighters can spamm to win round now, and we can no longer pace ourselves until they get tired, **** this ****, I knew the game was too good, and EA would do something to ruin it.

Was there a stamina patch released already? If so I haven't noticed.

I'm sure people have fought with the HUD off and loved it but people isn't all people now is it? lol

I'm sure I'll still kick ass with my opponents HUD off, but instead of getting a lot of late round KO's there will be a lot more decision fights. I mean sure it's nice to have tactical fights, but in real life boxing there are indicators when your opponent is hurt, we essentially wont have any now other than when your stunned.

That's a very good point.

It will really suck having you opponent have zero stamina while you are full in the late rounds only to step off the gas and possibly lose decisions. ******ed if you ask me. Unless they make indicators such as fighters arms dropping, panting ect...... Since they can not do that, why not just leave the HUD.

I have not tried online since the update. But can you see your own HUD? If not it sucks to not know how tired you are. How do you know to add stamina between rounds or health if you cant see either?
