Guest Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 I was wondering if anyone could elaborate on all the stick positions. I don't think the description on the info page is quite enough. Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Note Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 It means that once your fighter is in the position of your choice, he will stop trying to advance to any other position. Note that sometimes your fighter can skip past your chosen position due to certain moves, in that case he will not advance any further. For example: You're guy is in half guard and you have set stick position to side control. He will try to advance to side control but no further. However he could take someones back after a failed omoplata and other such moves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 What advantage would that give? Why wouldn't i want a more dominate position? Sorry for highjacking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 Can you (or anyone) elaborate on each position? I am really not well informed of the positions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Note Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 Well maybe you dont want to spend a lot of time trying to improve position against someone with better grappling since it makes you more vulnerable to being swept. It's also easier to control from certain positions than others, the mount isnt always the answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Note Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 Alright here's the position pyramid. Full Guard - Half Guard - Side Control - Mount - Back Each progressive position is more dominant for the guy on top and vice versa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Note Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 To elaborate a bit more on each position. Full Guard: This position is the best defensive position if your on the bottom and the worst for the top. Good BJJ fighters have a wide variety of submissions and sweeps from this position. Half Guard: This is better than the full guard for the guy on top but still not ideal, as you can still get swept quite easily. Side Control: A good position from the top, good for GnP or submissions. Mount: A very dominant position for devastating GnP aswell as submissions. Beware of getting swept here tho. Back: The most dominant position for submission fighters as they can quite easily secure a RNC. The guy on the bottom can reverse into the top guys guard tho. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 one more quick question...Say i set my fighter to get up if i have him stick in mount does that mean he won't try to get up as long as he's in mount? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j666 Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 one more quick question...Say i set my fighter to get up if i have him stick in mount does that mean he won't try to get up as long as he's in mount? no, he'll continue to work/advance for mount and when he gets there, he'll most likely standup...depending on other sliders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Note Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 No he still might decide to stand up from the mount, easily one of the most annoying parts of the game engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 Ok thanks. Yeah it happened to me here (http://www.mmatycoon.com/fightcommentary.php?FTID=96680) lucky i still won. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RodrigoMachado Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 No he still might decide to stand up from the mount, easily one of the most annoying parts of the game engine. Not if you set 100% stay on the ground and 0% standup. How would he standup if you told him NOT to do so? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 If the slider fo follow my orders wasn't 100% Read the Wiki.... Follow my orders vs See how it goes: During a fight, your fighter will assess how well he thinks he is doing in each area of the fight (standing, clinch and ground work). Depending on how intelligent and experienced he is, he may decide to change his gameplan. However, if you don't want him to change his gameplan at all, you can say so using this tactic slider. The only exception is if you tell your fighter to never do something (e.g. never go to the ground). If that's the case, no matter how badly he's doing in the other aspects of the game, he won't take it to the ground. I've highlighted the important part..
