"Boxing" is for fists not kicks, When I was new to this mod I told myself "Why is this mod unpopular" Now I know why, I'm not just being salty and just bashing all the kickers in this mod but damn this is too much, If they wanted to kick why not Wushu? Aikido? I greatly enjoy having a good match against a good opponent but there was this one instance where this dude kicked in every match and called himself the best player in the game and what's worse is everyone praised him for it and took his side whenever someone tells him to stop, I know I'm taking this a tad too seriously but I really like this mod and I just hate playing against this type of player. You're in a good match, you're up on points then the other dude kicks and you lose, everyone cheers for him and when you call him out for it you get called a "faggot" and a "pussy". One more thing as to why It's dead is the community, I left Aikido cause I thought the people were toxic but GODDAMN the people here are on a whole new other level It's disgusting.

I really understand, good reason I don't play much mods like this, I hate when people play a game mode and try to be as un technical as possible like using hands as the kicker in soccer, or like you said, all it is now is no one wants to play for the fun of it and now just play to win.

This mod gets really boring after playing 4-5 games of it.
That's why it's a dead mod.

Maybe you have to probe ''realism'' (MAS) and find good players to share good moments of martial arts in this game.

Even in mas, people will find ways to easily win like throwing a punch/kick after punch/kick without trying to regain balance.

At most you just need to try and find some players that play for the fun of it and only play with them sadly.

You can fix this by simply turning off points

Bump

I don't understand why bump is needed it is simple the answer has already been given multiple times.
After more than 5-6 rounds it gets boring.When people get past I say 2nd dan they shift away from the mod completely because
people are focused on mods like ABD taekkyon boxshu etc. Also, most people who wanna box/MMA just learn how to MAS.
So what I would say is go to MAS if you want an MMA experience.
