EA UFC 5 Update 1.014 Patch Notes for September 26:

Chase Hooper – You wouldn’t know it by looking at him but Chase Hooper is a very dangerous fighter and once the fight hits the canvas, it’s only a matter of time before his opponents find a barrage of ground and pound coming their way or they’re on the wrong end of a submission attempt. Chase’s nickname is “The Dream” but once he steps into the Octagon in UFC 5, he quickly becomes a nightmare for his opponents.

Lerone Murphy – Lerone “The Miracle” Murphy has had to overcome great adversity to make it to the UFC. Every time he enters the Octagon with a point to prove and has emerged as one of the top Featherweight prospects in the UFC. An explosive and powerful standup game, great takedown defense, and stamina for days is what “The Miracle” brings when you pick him as your fighter in UFC 5

New Fighters

• Chase Hooper
• Lerone Murphy

Gameplay Updates

• Fixed an issue that allowed a fighter to partially block the special lead hook block counter, after using an advancing slipping rear hook.
• Fixed an issue that made the Triangle entry unavailable from Submissive Rubber Guard, when at a large stamina advantage.
• Reduced the stamina advantage requirement for some ground transitions:
  • Smash Pass from Dominant Full Guard to Side Control from 25 to 10.
    • This happens when the submissive hips out to one side and then the dominant, being the second one to move, transitions to the other side. This requires Wrestling Transitions.
  • Side Control Sweep from 70 to 50.
    • This is a circumstantial sweep that stems from the hip-out transition to half-guard. It requires Wrestling Sweeps and was also very rare because of the very high stamina advantage requirement.
• Fixed a camera issue during the Heel Hook finish.

Misc. Additions and Updates

• New assorted vanity rewards added.

In case you didn’t know, EA added the Las Vegas Sphere into the game for free two weeks ago.
