Fight Night Round 4

Viper² · 26 Jun 2009 at 17:35

Just picked it up. Pretty good imo. Sucks that Floyd Jr. isn't on it though.

Do you mean the startup screen whilst in game (going into a fight) or the initial Fight Night Round 4 splash screen? The demo always froze on me at that point, so never played it and deleted it last night :/

The initial screen saying "Fight night round 4", before you even get to the EA logo.

I didnt get this in the demo though.

Ahh, I found I had another EA account with my XBL account linked which prevented me with the new one, works now. 35% on my custom character face of me

Ive got to be honest and say that the addition of adding your own face is absolute pants. After 30 mins of messing around and then setting my face up etc - it looked nothing like me by miles. I don't mean slightly wrong, I mean bloody awful.

The photos i took were good quality and with good lighting conditions, very disappointed.

On the other hand, creating a huge boxer and playing someone two teirs down is devastating.

Could someone help me with the uploading of replays, whenever I seem to upload one the camera remains static and doesn't follow the fight, missing half of the KO's off! Anyone know what I'm doing wrong and how to get the camera to "snap" onto the action so it follows the boxers movements?

Edit: This is what I mean http://beta.easports.com/media/play/video/6568901

Mine turned out ok, adding your own hairstyle, eyebrows as well sa your own face geometry makes a world of difference.

you need to move the camera with your analogue sticks, dont know if their is an auto function.

Spikey · 26 Jun 2009 at 19:34

Well I finally got it to work, you have to set the markers then go into "edit" then set the camera you want there and apply it, then upload/save it. Works a treat, here's a nice KO I did in legacy mode on Pro difficulty with default settings. Anyone else think it's pretty tough even on Pro?

Had a cracking fight with someone in an unranked game earlier, I was Lewis and he was Ali. I put him down in the second and then we traded blows until the ninth when I punched myself trying to KO him after after dazing him and he caught me with a beauty and put me down for 10.

How strange? Do you think if I download the demo again and do what you did it might work?

Not bought the game yet as it's my B'day next week so I'll see what I get...

Edit: I've downloaded the demo again and disabled media sharing and it works fine now. Thanks Hilly.

Just won my first fight online after losing 4 in a row, I did it in championship mode with my created fighter! Was an excellent match, I knocked him down then he came back strong and knocked me down twice! I then KO'ed him with a right uppercut and won the fight! He was killing me on points as well but I hung in there! Got the "Get up twice and win a fight online (ranked) achievement which I thought I would never get. I'm still struggling big time online but I rekon with a bit of practice I can become a decent opponent.

You're welcome mate. Like I said, I never had the problem with the demo, but have had it with the full version.

EA are preparing a patch apparently, due out in 3-4 weeks as it has to pass the Live Release Management procedures.

Any chance (although difficult i know) to let me know how on earth you did this?

I spent a while lining up the facial cross hairs to perfection, my skin tone is naturally quite pale and yet my character turned out quite brown/black and looked nothing like me.

you can continue to customise yourself and rearrange things, change your hairstyle, facial colour etc if you continue.

Grumps82 · 27 Jun 2009 at 00:55

Oh right. May just have a look at it again. Still it doesnt look like me.

Just had an epic fight in Legacy mode with Pacman vs some random guy. Went all the way to points and every scorecard was 100-90 in my favour. It got selected as an ESPN classic. I landed a ridiculous amount of body shots.... something like 380, but about 280 head shots because his defence was awesome. He just wouldn't take a haymaker.

Gettting rid of my copy. Just can't get along with the damn thing and the stick controls just hurt after 3 fights. Prefer FN3 tbh.

One of my 9 round fights also got selected for as an ESPN classic, shame I lost!

Damn I missed the scam Code has expired. Zico was the master if this a few years ago. Pre-ordering to get to a certain amount to activate a code then cancelling the other orders.

I can't believe the store keeps falling for it.

Aw bugger!

Got it as well! :cool:
