EA Reveals First DLC Plans For Fight Night Round 4 (Press Release)

[acarrero]

Seriously, the button pushers can have their own online league. It's just not the same game if you're pushing buttons. You take an element away, you simplify throwing punches, it requires less execution, and it gives the advantage of having less to think about. EA had years to consider this and they made the decision to go without buttons, now they backtrack and in the process risk ruining the online game. There's a reason they keep saying "although we prefer/recommend TPC...";it's a better, harder game with TPC. Unless they make it a slight disadvantage to use buttons (assuming equal skill level) on online mode, it's not going to work.

Wait wait.. let me get this straight. Just because it's faster and more accurate to use buttons, all of a sudden it doesn't take thought to play the game.

So, it's impossible to think fast enough to know what you're doing with button presses. Do you hear yourself? I'm not trying to bash you, but that just makes absolutely no sense.

I am in the TPC camp...but I have to be honest, I may switch over. The TPC is KILLING my controller. I can already tell it is a little more loose than it was 2 weeks ago. I am a hardcore COD player and I need my sticks tight.

The more I think of it EA is really missing the boat to keep interest going in this fine game no DLC intil September no DLC Boxers ?
I mean with Madden , NHL and NBA coming up for release soon FNR4 may sadly get lost in the the shuffle.

I told you guys and I only use my older controller and I try to be careful with the sticks but its near impossible to control when you gotta move or block quick ect.
So I will checkout buttons if I still have the game then.

totally agree with u. i dont want to play against button people. stick only.

i dont think they are patching stamina if they are adding the slider. which means online will be same. at least thats what i took from the statement.

The first DLC will be out in about 4 weeks. The second will be out in December.

Big difference with the head hooks and head uppercuts.
