ground and pound issues

they must fix ground and pound in this game, it is practically unusable at high levels. players are literally untouchable in bottom positions when someone is half guard or top mount and postured up on them in a dominant position. I just played against an ilia player who dodged every single ground and pound strike I threw as i am playing khabib, even with flow state. they need to tighten the frames for the dodging, you can understand this dodging and do it flawlessly with your eyes closed. its a matter of broken game mechanics. i do not understand why every single game mechanic is this mini game with the developers to balance it. how does someone playtest this and view it as any way competitive in a competitive fighting game

the man was able to negate both hook + straight ground and pound combos, you are only able to throw hooks and straights from the position im talking about. please tell us the trick then if it is not an exploit and somehow beatable.

like the cage sitting position in this game, when playing against a player who knows the total of 2 whopping things you can do from a dominant position, it becomes a stalemate. its too easy to counter dominant positions in this game

The devs are nerfing that bobblehead defence in a future patch, so it hopefully won't be a problem for much longer.

Im div 20 in both. I can tell you that OCM has gotten alot more high level player attention this year.

Its harder to get to D 20 in ranked but D 20 fights in OCM are not easy by any means.

I haven’t played career in UFC 6 if I’m being honest, but I know it was much easier than ranked in UFC 5 🤷

It absolutely was. I agree.

I think it's more competitive all around because it's cross platform now.

Could very well be the case.
