I'm definitely disappointed too. I know that I've told this story before, but me and one of my friends had a league with just the two of us. We used every fighter on the roster and used all 40 CAF's available too. We wanted all of our CAF's to look and fight the same, so a site like MMA-CAF was perfect for us. However, what made the CAF Share great was that you could share stuff like tattoos. My buddy was very anal about things like that and he would spend hours making tattoos, then upload them, so I could get them on my CAF's. It sucks that that tool has been taken away from us.

Another fear I have is that the CAF system is going to be closer to NBA 2K14 than UFC 3. Heck, Brian Hayes has already said that their system isn't going to be as in-depth as UFC 3, that makes me very worried. if we end up with pre-made faces that we have to mix and match, then I'm going to be extremely upset.

Lastly, I have a question in regards to Gameface. The only EA Sports game that I've played recently is Madden, so I don't know how it is in other games. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but in Madden can't you only use one Gameface? Is it like that in FIFA as well? If so, I don't think that Gameface will be that great of a tool since you will only be able to use one.

The best example of Gameface is Fight Night Champion. Go here:

Thats fighter share and most of the top downloaded fighters were made using gameface. The only issue FNC's game face had was that it had trouble doing dark shinned fighters. Their faces would have a weird white glow around them.

I may be in the minority here, but I could care less about fighter share, I've never liked it in any fighting game. I'd rather pay for DLC where fighters will be accurate and look like themselves rather than download a decent looking CAF.

Its not an "either or" situation. The game will 100 fighters and maybe 15 DLC fighters. That leaves 30-40 fighters that are significant UFC fighters that wont be in the game. Thats where CAF and Fighter Share comes in.

Fighter creation and share has always been a huge addition to games that the sports gaming community embraced quickly and loved it. There is a creation community by themselves. People tend to think selfish and not as a community. They want you to support something that bothers them but say things don't matter if it's not major to them.

Yeah I know what you mean because I am the same in the sense that I will always buy the DLC but like aholbert said, there are so many fighters that won't be in the game or be DLC, so it's nice to have the ability to download fighters from fighter share, considering that I am horrible at creating people.

It isn't either/or though. In Undisputed there were shared versions of the fighters that eventually became DLC, and I bought the DLC when it came out because yeah, it was a better product. But it was nice to have the shared versions of the fighters that never made the DLC.

While that may be true, most of the fighters who will be left out will likely be new guys or guys that haven't been seen in a while. Sure, there may be a few big name guys that will get left out due to whatever reason, but most well known and middle tier guys will make the roster.

I see where you guys are coming from though, and I respect your opinions. Personally, I don't think it's a big issue. If a guy makes the roster, good. If not, oh well, maybe next time. That's how I look at it.
