MMA Team Manager Reviews

I just couldn't get to grips with it -- unless I missed a tutorial - I couldn't work out what things were, what i was doing or what i was supposed to do - a real shame -- hopefully I will go back at some point and it will all be fixed!

Good game! Some fixes and ameliorations that will probably come in the upcoming updates! Don't forget it's a beta release and it means there are many fixes and new things to arrive. It has a lot of potential and this is why I recommend it

If you like MMA and sports simulation, this game is a MUST have. It felt expensive but I took a gamble and I've already become hocked. The thing is, the UI isn't as bad as people are saying and the game has significant depth and if worked on with future updates, it could become a serious classic video game for MMA fans. The league system and variety of tactics involved are seriously entertaining with a great challenge in the first few seasons. I wish there were more STATs on fighter's records because as a sports simulation buff, that is what turns me on the most. There's nothing quite like this game out there as there are very few MMA games that are even playable. The strategy involved here is truly entertaining with a very high ceiling for long journeys through MMA. I wish the editor enabled the creation of more cities/teams, with a stock of default logos and of course the ability to create fighters. I'd literally re-vamp the entire league system. So I think I will spend like around 2,000 k hours on this game, so the money is worth it for me. The game didn't have any bugs for me, and the challenge is real. The joy in trying to rise above the ranks as a team and with young fighters is truly enjoyable and I'd recommend this game to anyone that likes team management in a sporting context. I never write reviews but was puzzled by the lack of positive reviews for this title. I see the INCREDIBLE potential here and with just a few tweaks this game could be a lot better, I'd be happy to work with the devs on what needs adjusting. It's already satisfying so just imagine what this could become! It's a surprisingly deep and complex game already, I only wish it had even more depth and complexity. More stats and more all-time historical analysis of fighters with a HOF and so forth.

Yes, now I see the full game because I made a managing mistake on my behalf. It is a good game but still the graphics could be better like the ufc games out there, add a bit of blood when fighting. Maybe add more realistic faces to all of them fighters and assistences and maybe you could do a DLC to create your very own time that doesn't exist and pick your own logo and fighters. then I'll be a perfect game. And I'm sure I'm not the only one to think this or the only one to find something wrong with an early access game. Apart from this, I like how it's heading

Fun game. A little glitchy but it's in beta and nothing gamebreaking has happened. It's the only game that got me to stop playing football manager.

Despite the very poor 3D graphics and the very frustrating UI, I was able to play it starting from League 7 until the game kept crashing on my way to being promoted to League 3. I'm guessing the program generates random fighters by caliber every year and adds on to it's own database until it doesn't know what the fuck to do after 2024 in the game. I could have spent my $13 on better games on sale. As a management simulator, it was very addictive and was determined to reach League 1 and win all the trophies, but it's a really bad predicament knowing the game won't even boot up for the next season.

keep updating it the more popular mma gets the more intrest in the game would be cool if you added the ground game animations and view of knockouts and submissions

I just played Motorsport Manager eventhough not being a car fan, and then I saw this game, which I thought would be amazing as well. Was I mistaken. I'll keep it very simple because I also don't want to waste too much time in this review. -UI: horrible. -Fights: Very boring and dull. It's not realistic, but not arcade enough either + nothing happens really. -Tooltips: Cryptic. -Tutorial: nope. -Content: Having not even played it for an hour I already felt like there's very little content and it's hidden behind the fact that at the start there's no tutorial so you don't understand what's going much. All in all, I'm refunding while I still can, cause this game is the most dissapointing buy since I bought "The Stomping lands" or whatever it was called.

Frequent crashes, as well as a confusing game. I thought i'd be picking fighters, and then training them. I think it's a bit much to have your character manage EVERYTHING! Didn't seem clear to me when fights were coming up. I dunno if it's terminology that's used across the pond or something. But like, "fixtures" and clubs, etc, weren't very clear. Seems like it'd be better to create spoof organization names like EFC, for "extreme fighting championships" (like UFC) or Strikefest (instead of Strikeforce). Then create some discernable camps for fighters to join. JaxsonWink (Instead of JacksonWink), Triple Star (instead of TriStar). It doesn't seem all that relatable to current MMA like this. It's a weird menu simulator. It needs to be a lot clearer on what you're doing, and how to guide your fighters through it. EDIT: Upcoming fights were not showing up on the home screen. if they were, it wasn't clear. The home screen shows really a mish-mash of information. The tutorial is okay - but really it just feels like there's too much unnecessary stuff/information in the game. It doesn't streamline to the event of recruiting and training fighters. There's all this other stuff you have to do, and it's overwhelming and tedious.

Carefull with what I am writting now : I dont recommend this game NOW. But in the future, it might very well be a must have. The good : Concept Love for MMA Diversity of option League system Fighter choices during fight A LOT OF POTENTIAL TO IMPROVE The bad : -The worst UI ever seen in a management game. -Lack of help/ tutorial -Lack of life in the menus. (everything is dead) -To many stuff displayed on the screen -Again, the UI will hurt your eyes -3D model bad and weird. -No sounds, no voices recorded in the menus, no one talks to you, nada. -Fighter improvement unclear. fighters should have a general "level" from 1 to 100 or more for example. -Staff improvement unlcear either. -You should'nt start with a full club. To much to learn at with a UI that bad is the reason the reviews are bad. -Improvement system on a fighter too much tied to their age. -Fighter selection system is a hell. It should be simple. -Should be able to renegociate salary after every week fights. -Fighter being KO'd should not mean automaticaly putting them away, it could be a "doctor" decision, with chance pourcentage. -The salary demands of law rank fighters are always way too high. Dudes are fighting like grandma's and asking for 40k while being in league 7. Doesn't make sence. - the first lowest league should serve of tutorial -Fighters dont improve after fights. - Option during a fight should be more clear. Here it is messy, but it is again part of the UI. Could think of more but right now, I really need to take a shit !
