We don't really have a system called "Flash KO's." This is a term that the community has coined to identify KO's that they feel come quickly or suddenly. We do have a One-Punch KO system, and in Undisputed 2009 pre-patch they were quite common, but post-patch and in Undisputed 2010 they are extremely rare events - personally I've only had one of them occur in all the matches of Undisputed 2010 that I've ever played, so I don't believe this is what players are complaining about. KO's are tuned differently this year, however. Essentially, heavier weight classes will have a greater occurrence of KO's than they did last year. We did this in part because we felt that there wasn't enough tactile different between the weight classes last year and in part because we felt that it more accurately reflected what happens in the real UFC. Players will notice the frequency of KO's to be much less with the lighter weight classes, and much more with heavyweights - this is intentional, but it is something that we will closely monitor once the game is released to see if tuning adjustments need to be made. My suggestion to avoid getting KO'd so easily is to defend against head strikes better, and to not Sway recklessly.

Kind of skeptical on this...

Maybe we are seeing alot of "0ne punch" KO's because the demo is all LHW's...???

He said its a "rare" event but in damn near every video we see about the game, it has those "one punch" KO's in it...

IDK, I'll be doing a career in LW, hopefully there are more ROCKED moments and TKO's in that weight class...

I don't know whether I'm getting better at striking or if I just adapted to the CPU's aggressive style but I'm finding it easy to stand and trade with Rampage when I'm playing as Machida on both Advanced and Expert. I'm knocking him out in the first round every time.

To improve your chances of successfully completing a Submission, all the old rules apply: make sure you're in a good advantaged position – it's easier to submit someone from Mount than it is from Open Guard – and make sure to take advantage of situation in which your opponent has low Energy (that's Energy, not Stamina, although sometimes by virtue of your opponent having low Stamina, it's easier for them to have low Energy). The only new wrinkle we've added this year is that it's also much easier to submit an opponent once they're Rocked.

So basically nothing has changed from 09. It's nice you have an easier chance when they're rocked but I feel like if I'm a high submission offense guy and I mount a low submission defense guy early in the first round and I attempt a submission I should have a very high chance of getting the tap and that doesn't appear to be the case.

This simply isn't true. Unless the final version is really different, the majority of KOs I've seen are one strike KOs.

Regarding the Omoplata cancel, we don't regard this as a cheat at all; there are plenty of ways to avoid this situation that we think with more play people will discover. The demo hasn't been out very long yet; let's give things a chance to mature before we jump to any conclusions.

How do they figure? Any takedown on Shogun can be instantly negated, the chance of you passing before someone can lock that down are slim and none.

I have been playing this game for a few days now, and I use the blocking button, and I rarely ever get knocked out. What demo are you guys playing? If the computer gets aggressive, use the clinch and take him down. You dudes must be playing Fight Night style, because how are you getting knocked out so much? I rarely ever lose in this demo now that I fight a more sim style fight.

Dude, is that what you guys are complaining about? If your able to consistently knock the computer out in 4 seconds, then can you please teach me how? You must be an expert because if I choose to slug it out with the computer right after the bell, I will lose. What level are you playing on, and who are you knocking out that fast?

Expert/Advance

and yes Ive knock Rua out with Machida using his Karate Straight in less than 10 seconds into the match...

[darlon]

On advanced, I just stand and box vs Rampage with Machida and I'm able to knock him out before the first round ends. I've knocked him down with the first punch. I've rocked him with a head kick in the beginning of the first round.
