Finishing off an opponent

[Sweet_T]

I've created a fighter for my PS3.

I can not seem to deliver the KO blow though!

I just won a fight 10/9 for every round (bar one) had my opponent in trouble countless times but couldn't finish him off!

Is there a power shot or something I'm missing?

Aite mate. Bloody hell, your an old face!



Well the only thing i can say is that it seems as if you are doing everything right up untill you have your man hurt.

What is 'countless times'?

I find that in a fight where there are plenty 'stun' moments, there is usually a flash knock down somewhere along the line. So maybe your exaggerating on the 'countless' part

If not then like I say, maybe your just loosing the plot as soon as your guy is hurt? Just keep close and turn up the heat a little.

I would say you should look to co-ordinate your attacks so that you bum-rush your guy immediately after throwing the sort of shots you assume will 'stun' your opponent. That way your always in a position to capitalise.

856 punches over 10 rounds actually ain't a great load of punches for FNR4. So maybe your general output is maybe a little too conservative to accommodate knockdowns...?

That being said. You won easily so don't worry too much

[FTMatty]

The trick is to get in close to your opponent after he's staggered back.
Keep going forward and throw bombs.

Was gona say hah!

I'm starting a new career as Barrera on GOAT mode and must admit that I am finding it much harder to score knockouts. I'm 8-0 so far with only 1 KO to my name. I stun the opponents all the time and sometimes score flash knockdowns, but I always seem to go to the cards. I much prefer the difficulty levels on this game as the other ones were far too easy, but I would like more stoppages.

[Jimanuel Boogustus]

You can adjust the sliders to make for more realistic fights. If you experiment, you be amazed.

[Gandalf]

Getting better. Now 11-0 with 3 stoppages. One of them was even from stunning the guy and then putting him down. I must have stunned him about 20 times though and his energy was really gone by the end.

This game puts blisters on your fingers!

[ICB]

You need to learn to counter, make your opponent miss and make them pay. I didn't play online much about 8 fights, but i never lost. You just need to learn to counter.

[rowza]

Yeah Online i hard its all about BodyWork/Counter punch :/ 6-1-1 3KO's Lightweight

[JonnyFolds]

I use the duck and step move a lot and it seems to give me lots of Kayos. Its just like a fireball from street fighter (any fighting game dorks out there??)

Consider what you choose as your characters power shot, too. I like to duck and throw a solid left hook... You can't adjust the type of shot to be your money shot after you make the character, so remember before you hit "Begin Career" :P

I rarely go to the cards, bc if someone is a pansy the whole fight I'll throw myself at them till one of us gets Kayoed in the last 2 rounds!
