WHAT THE NEXT FIGHT NIGHT SHOULD HAVE?

Post what you would like the next fight night game to have in it. It will be good to see what each person wants.

My ideas are below:
1)Full-customise entourage. Create robes, girls, bodyguards, trainers, fight crew and managers.
2)Loads more music. Used for entrance also.
3)More detailed newspaper clippings.
4)More scenes eg: Wearing belts, holding belts/trophies, etc
5)Victory celebrations. Choose how your fighter celebrates a win.
6)Referee in the ring!!!
7)More tattoos!
8)Customise fighter's attitudes. eg: Respectful, Always Angry, Dirty, etc
9)More minigames. eg: More weights, more training options.
10)Ring announcer. Says things like fighter's weight and height, color of fighter's shorts, and the famous 'Let's get ready to rumble' speech. Also should announce winner at end of bout. eg: 'The Winner by K.O...The Tiger.'

Let me know your opinions and ideas.

Going to the olympics.

When your nose bleeds should be option to put stuff up your nose to stop it bleeding same with your .mouth

More training how about skipping sit ups like in rocky.

how about press conferences where you get options like in wwf to choose if you want to be the bad guy or good guy.

Haha, yeah the press conference thing sounds mad.

I am really dissapointed by FNR3 not having a ref though. That's like...taking a goal post out of a soccer game. Haha

They done that alot in WWE games at first they had no ref then they decided to put one in would be good to see a ref so he can break up clinches ect.

Yeah these things would add alot more realism to the game. Which is what the fans want now days.

For the die hard boxing fans:
Either they are to lazy or want to fight like their favourite boxer.

And for the nerd PS2/3 freaks:
They need realism because they can't do it themselves haha.

Nah I'm just kidding...but yeah I'm gonna send a bunch of these ideas to EASPORTS.

I hoping for a better Career mode and option to turn regressing off

Any news on this? Or are we gonna have to wait years while they flog it on the PS3?
As a 360 owner - I think were in for a long wait.

i think they should have crazy things happen out of no where...
Like,
Fan man fallin in the ring, and the golota bowe rumble in the stands etc..
lol it would be funny as hell

HAHA! Yeah there should be like a feature that you can turn on or something. In FIFA07, there is a feature that lets 'weird sounds' happen. If turned on, the crowd says weird stuff, ball kicks sound weird.

Should be stuff like heavyknockout911 said. How funny would it be if your fighting say Tyson vs Lewis as example:

Crowd Guy 1: "YEAH TYSON!"
Crowd Guy 2: "Stuff Tyson! Lewis' Smashin Him!"
CG 1: "OH WHAT FOOL?!"
CG 2: "BRING IT HOMES!"

Full smash each other in the background.

Haha

I always feel it's important with games to feel like you're not the only one playing. There should be results from other fights from around the world so that you can start hyping a fight against the next big thing in career mode. You could show up in the crowd at one of his fights etc.

I also think you should have to make an effort to make weight and move up or down in weight when you want to.

Good list 8)

Music should have the old xbox thing.. Download and have your own music already on your console ready to use for whatever..

Can you do that with PS3? .. Bloodeh hope so!

The Shop thing too!.. Ive been saying that for ages! .. What they need is just to buy the design of your trunks etc.. And you should be able to pick colour patterns etc

Also belts!.. I loved that about FN 2004..You had your belt during ring walk..Had awards at the end of each year..

An amazing thing about belts would be to include the Four Boxing organisations..Wbc Wbo Ibf Wba that would be great..

A new training thing would be great.. Use a mix of training mini games to make weight etc.. whilst bieng able to choose which stats you improve such as the first fight night game...

Lots more characters of course..

Also the nicknames thing does my head in a bit.. If there were a way to recognise the letters in your created fighters name and read it accordingly or something like have the bloke doing the voiceover for ring announcer/ commentator read out a long list of first and second names and just put them together then that would be something special!

Yeah the nickname thing. If it can't recognise the name you put in, then maybe EASPORTS could have something where you pay a little cash to them, tell them your nickname and they make a small patch for it or something.
Sounds pretty far-fetched, but anything is possible nowdays! Lol.

Bro I really like your nickname thing also, thats a good idea. I mean everytime a new game comes out I'm always curious if the anouncer will finally say your name. heres a cc for that idea I really hope they incorporate something like that into the game.

Cc's wadeb and lucky!!

I hear you guys.. I mean for instance.. You know how dudes like hawking use computers to speak..And it recognises the letters to make into words..Thats the most far fetched...

On The wwe smackdown games they have a thing where you can litterally pick a bunch of names that have already been pre recorded by the announcer ..But they only do first names..
Just like they have a large number of first and last names when you fight random characters in career mode.. They could pre record them and put them together for a fighters real name.. Thats easy...


And also lucky you have a good idea there bro!..
The get in touch with ea and pay for certain things is a good idea.. Future fight nights will be on the next gen consoles..Which means internet!!

I remember one of the toney hawk games came out and if you could hook your ps2 online having sent a picture to activision they can incorperate your face onto a created skater!!

That too in fact has just clicked.. That would indeed be an awesome feat for the next game..
The internet access is already there...So if you could pay to send pictures and names to ea and have your created boxer maxed out to the full that would indeed be incredible ;) :)

I think to make it more realistic you should be able to call up a press conference after you get your ass beat by a better boxer and say you were drugged for some free publicity. ;D

Cheers buddy. I have concluded a few problems though if all these demands were met. Here is my theory:
EA decides to make a game with all this detail in it. However, then it takes twice as long to make, delaying the sale date. Every month or so, they would release a small commercial to keep the waiting fans in anticipation.
This would result in mass fans waiting outside stores to buy FIGHT NIGHT on the sale date. When the doors opened, the copies of FN would be limited, not everyone would get one, first in-first served.
This would lead to ACTUAL boxing fights taking place between EA FN fans.
So if these demands are met...we better sharpen up our boxing skills if we want a copy! HAHA!

No I'm not smoking crack either! Lol.

Haha. Love this idea. Should be an option to postpone big name fights, in case your boxer wasn't as strong as you wanted him to be (eg: did crap in a training mini-game).
Then should have reasons for postponing it eg: Was sick, injured, financial problems with manager, etc. HAHAHA...this prob won't happen though. :lickish:

More bells and whistles would be great. What I'd like more is realistic fighting. I don't want my arms to go into shock everytime my punch gets parried and vice versa. I would also like the real fighters to be more in sync with how they fought in reality. Muhammad Ali shouldn't be ducking under my punches, attacking my body and just standing there. There's many examples of how the real fighters that they've provided do not match up to the way they fought in real life.

The referee needs a lot of work, you could clinch for a whole round and there's no body that's going to break you up. Right now all the referee is-- is a strange dream you get when you get knocked on your ass, nothing more than a figment of your boxer's imagination.

Fouls need to be fixed too, I get a kick out of kneeing my opponent 3-4 times while their down. That shit shouldn't fly unless you have it enabled in the options.

I guess they could add a couple reality touches that can piss us off. For instance a wet spot on the canvas with a random chance of slipping on it. You can have smarter cornermen or referee's to try to notice this before hand and have it whipped up.

As for a grissley touch you can introduce "Death" to this game. I know that it sounds terrible but in some of these grudge matches where you're fighting as hard as you can and God forbid you kill your opponent. I'm not talking about making this game a sad version of celebrity deathmatch, but the risk of dieing is a risk that exists in real boxing, so why shouldn't it exist in a realistic boxing game?

I'd like more realistic trainers. Having a guy that waves his hands and plays the same record over and over is going to make me skip right over it because we've all heard it before.

The cutman's job needs more work. We don't need a Bob Villa cutman moving the coldswell across my head like he's sanding furniture, the same applies to the q-tip. They should be able to freely work around the face, applying their own ingredients to stop bleeding, realistically working to reduce swelling, applying vasoline, etc...

I could just keep going...

Thats a good point!.. Trainers!.. There should be famous trainers on it..

I mean.. The speed coach looks exactly like freddie roach anyway i think it was probably the intention.. But it would be sweet if you could train with Steward, roach, mayweather etc..lol

I beleive they havementioned there will be some big changes..Which will be nice.. But aside from that the most important thing is career and characters.. I find they dont put enough effort into some characters as they do the rest.. Like a Deigo corrales isnt as well done as the ali's and hopkins

they need to really put max effort into having all great characters and have fighters like mayweather, tito, vargas , mosely, jcc whittaker etc..

Maybe but on the 360 and maybe even the ps3 the speed guy is bald.

I'd like a timeline of trainers, it sounds like too much work but I can dream can't I. It'd be awesine to have a conversation between the fighter. Imagine Angelo Dundee in the corner:

"Fuck me?! Fuck him, he's taking your Title!!!" "Your blowin it son, your blowin it!"

It'd also be fun to make (customize) the most idiotic trainers possible, they can give you shitty advice, stupid metaphores, and have you chase chickens for training. Personally I'd like them to make Rocky Balboa's trainer Mickey. "Stay Down!" "Flip the jab, Flip the jab... You see that bum in front of you... You see right and you do right... memorize... ;D

Yeah I like this idea. When you have like 'fight now'. You be like Ali or something and make the opponent Corrales or someone the lowest weight. Then you absolutely punish him and finish with a haymaker to his temple. Ending scene is you winning, and the fight doctor pronouncing his dead.
That'd be wicked AS LONG AS this didn't mean you couldn't ever use the dead fighter again.
Or even if they had an option to turn Death on or off.

Note: This comment isn't anything about Deigo's death or his accident. Nor is it a joke, so no one take it personal.

SOME OF THESE IDEAS ARE PRETTY GOOD AND INTERESTING.

It gives me goosebumps just thinking about it. A lot of guys with their online careers would be out for blood. Imagine... Oh yeah I went 54-4 and then this fucker killed me.

As for another realistic touch what about broken hands, sprains, hurt shoulders. If your hand is broken and you land a haymaker after the fact it's going to hurt like no other. Cuts should be more realistic too, say for instance your guy has a bad cut above his right eye, it's gonna be very difficult to react to punches especially left-hooks.

The more realistic the better. Although a nice cheat menu would be fun too. :)

Yeah Chris,
I was thinking about this whole death thing.
To add realism, if you fight someone, win or not, and say you get like smashed in the ribs heaps and they break or something. You shouldn't be able to be fully healed three weaks later for another fight.

Like they should have after fights, reports, "Ali suffered a dislocated jaw, repair will be 10 weeks or something."

SOMETHING like that, realism! Realism = Money...message to EA!

However, options like death and injuries and stuff should be able to be turned on or off...otherwise it may piss some people off.

Trainers should have specific traits. i.e they all have a very unique opinion on what they feel you need to do.
It would then be up to you to see who you feel more comfortabel with screeming insults at youbetween rounds :D

Also, training should be so so so much more engrossing (spelling!) it should really teach you something between fights, or at least work on something new every few fights.

Maybe your weeknesses?

Also also ::**

You should be rewarded/ penalised for yor performance in the ring
ie you punch accuracy is high so you stamina goes up (making it easier to put more effective punches together)

:mr-t: You feel me?

Also Also Also ^-^

The game needs another level. Like Extra hard or P4P ATG! I mean, i thought i was a god on that game.

Man i was humbled very quickly! ;D
There should be super adabptable AI ;)

I like your idea about the training and trainers. I also think it would be cool to maybe take a look at your opponet before you fight them to see what you need to do to match up with the fighter your about to fight.

Aww man! that would be fwokin deep!! You could put in some serious graft before you even fight man! Thats how it shoudl be done. 8)

Mind you, there'd need to be some seriously hard settings for you to really wanna do all that.... More reason to if you ask me :)

Hey! Imagin doing that on-line too? :o

Aww man dont get me started! ;D

Has any played EA's total club manager?

On it, each week you have a table with the week's roster. Split into
morning
mid morning
afternoon
evening

Then you have a ranges of choices to choose from, how to make your team train. (Running, penalties, weights, theory, etc)

Would be good if you had this kind of thing for your boxer on FN, choosing what training he does, at what time of the day and week, until each fight.

Different combinations could have different outcomes, example...
Make the fighter run every morning increase fatigue greatly, but then also increase indurance. Or maybe you put to much hard work for your fighter in a day, you may get a small injury from over working.

Something like this would require more interaction and strategic thinking. Would be a good addition imo.

If the game becomes too realistic it will be a drag.

You know, like having the pentalties turned up on Madden. Who likes having their best runs called back on holding? Not I.

That's what options are for! WE should have an option for how realistic the game plays. Not just Fight Night play one way and that's unrealistic.
