We're back to answer more of the questions that you've been submitting in the official Q&A thread. If you've got a great question about UFC Undisputed 2010 for our developers, we'll make sure they hear it... then we'll post their responses here in the News section.
What's the downside of disrespecting your opponent in Career Mode?
Well, it's not a negative... it's more of a wing of consequences. We have this faction relationship – each fighter is associated with a camp. Disrespecting a fighter affects your popularity and it can affect your association with different camps. It's more of a strategy than a flat out positive and negative. We didn't want to make a system where the obvious choice was to always respect a fighter, because that would be very close ended.... So we wanted to give different motivations for respecting and disrespecting.
Will the game make you retire in career like in 2009?
It does yes, but the length of the career has been extended from 7 to 12 years.
For the voices for your CAF, how many exactly are there?
There are 5 voices.
Can certain slams and throws from body clinch be countered into submissions again? Or are the parameters of this happening less predictable or even unscripted?
No. When we went with the unified grappling system we tried to not only adopt the control scheme that the ground uses but also the general rules that govern the ground system as well... and that's just something that didn't exist on the ground (being able to reverse a transition into a submission) so we took it out of the standing clinching. So reversing a standing clinch gains you a positional advantage, but it doesn't automatically initiate a submission.
In Undisputed 2009, weak attacks -- jabs, straights, weak leg/body kicks, etc -- did NOT interrupt stronger attacks. On the contrary, a stronger attack that took a larger frame count to execute would interrupt weaker attacks. Has this system been changed in 2010?
That system still exists now. We didn't want to introduce a system where weak attacks beat strong attacks, because that would have introduced a hierarchy that we weren't interested in exploring. But weak attacks definitely have a purpose in the game. I don't want to explicitly say how I think weak attacks should be used, because I have faith that the Community will figure out the use for them. The savvier players will understand where you can integrate the weak attacks in conjunction with the sway system to maximize their benefit.
In Undisputed 2010, players can now catch their opponent's kick and decide what they want to do. If the player who caught the leg opts for a takedown, is his takedown then unstoppable?
No.
Will leg kicks be more effective? Is there going to be very visible damage on the body of the fighters, like continuous body kicks will start to bruise the ribs and leg kicks to the thighs?
Yes. In Undisputed 2010 attacks to the head are extremely important, as is true in real life. What we've done to the body and legs is introduce a system called Critical Damage. As you incur more damage to these areas, your fighter gets penalized in performance. Once you've incurred critical damage, these penalties get very severe. So as your fighter's legs are hurt, the damage you can inflict with your own kicks are lessened, as is your movement. Also, your propensity to be taken down is increased. Eventually the damage of all of your attacks is lessened. You will see this accumulated damage show up on your fighter's body.
You guys mentioned something about a benefit for participating in online camps (aside from actually getting experience against humans), what would this benefit be?
This is going to be discussed in more detail in the future. Without going into too much detail now, we'll just say that you receive an additional value to one of the existing Career Mode elements.
How much will you be updating fighter stats/ records? For instance, Yushin okami jsut showed some wicked striking skills his last fight. will you be upgrading his striking in the game? Or will you be changing anyone as time goes by based on their recent performances in the Octagon?
We don't have a fixed schedule yet, but we plan on updating them where appropriate. I hesitate to say we'll be updating after every single fight, but when there is a strong enough case for stats to be updated, we will do it.
Any saved replays this year?
Sorry, there are no savable replays in 2010.
Who are the Octagon Girls in the game?
Arianny and Chandella.

How To Gain Early Access to the UFC Undisputed 2010 Demo
Posted on Saturday, April 24th, 2010 by andrew lao
Step one: Register. Step two: Triangle choke.
To celebrate the launch of UFC Undisputed 2010’s new community site, THQ has provided a way for fans to gain early access to the long awaited demo.
All you have to do is register for UFC2010’s community site, and starting this Monday, a “batch” of registered users will receive demo codes through email.
The site is looking cool so far, it’s a hybrid of net 2.0 and a street team where users gain points for doing certain things, like inviting friends to join the site, and can cash out points for rewards (DVDs, Tshirts, etc.). Some of the features aren’t even available for use yet, but soon UFC2010’s community site will allow people to team up and create a Fight Camp, and even participate in Online Tournaments.
Eventually, the demo will be open to all, but it doesn’t hurt trying, so go forth and try your luck:

Hi all,
If you want to discuss the UFC Undisputed 2010 Demo, demo keys, the demo date, etc - then this sticky thread is your place to do it. We'll be editing this first post with updated information.
If you start other threads to ask about demo keys, the demo date, or any general demo topic then we will lock delete those threads as appropriate. We know that everyone is pumped to get their hands on the demo soon, but please try to keep the conversation to this thread.
I will continue to post updates answers to your questions.

Frequently Asked Questions So Far:
When is the demo coming out????
-As soon as we have an exact day time, we will let you know. Right now, we are sticking to our last message, which is "Most likely later this week."
No, seriously you evil THQ people. Why won't you tell us the exact time date?????
Because we want to make 100% sure that we're giving you the right info about the demo release. We should be able to confirm the exact date time details for everyone by end-of-day tomorrow (Tuesday PST).
How will the key giveaway work?
-We'll post a more detailed walkthrough soon, but here are the basics. We've built a system into the new Community Rewards section that lets us give away unique digital keys. Once the Demo Keys are live, we'll have a page on the site describing exactly what you need to do to get your key.

No, the demo will be either 0 or 1 points in the auction house. If you are a member of the community, you'll be able to get it.

I played it for roughly 6 hours yesterday really liking it so far. However the submission controls seem slightly harder this year. But maybe that just goes along with the switch... Or should I say upgrade from 360 to PS3. Which may explain the graphic overhaul as well.
I don't understand the submissions in the demo. I was using Shogun Rua and I could NOT make Rampage tap.
