1. The Game Is Fundamentally Broken in Key Areas
- Core mechanics like punch tracking, movement, and hit detection are inconsistent or outright bugged. That’s not a skill issue—it’s a systemic issue.
- Unbalanced styles and poor AI mean that even CPU vs. CPU fights don't reflect anything close to real boxing. This breaks immersion for sim fans.
2. The “Get Good” Mentality Is Misplaced
- Saying "you don’t know how to play" implies the game is deep and functional. But the problem isn’t lack of understanding—it’s that many mechanics either don’t work as intended or don't make sense within the context of boxing.
- Criticism ≠ ignorance. A hardcore sim fan pointing out flaws is trying to help make the game better, not tear it down.
3. Some Fans Are Mistaking Loyalty for Quality
- There’s a segment of the community that’s emotionally invested in Undisputed's success, which is understandable—many of us wanted it to be that game.
- But defending poor execution only encourages mediocrity. If we don’t hold developers accountable, we’re saying it’s okay to sell us an unfinished or arcade-shifting product.
4. Honest Feedback is Being Dismissed
- Many fans who ask for realistic improvements are treated like they’re “too demanding” or “stuck in the past,” when in reality, they’re the reason a game like this had potential in the first place.
- It’s not toxic to want a boxing game to actually feel like boxing.
Final Thought
It’s not about hating on the game. It’s about wanting better—for boxing, for gamers, and for the future of sports simulations. If anything, Undisputed deserved more care, and fans deserve a product that respects their intelligence and passion.
