[QUOTE="skippycue, post: 240364, member: 3125"] So I recently beat this on both PS3 and PS Vita. I can't believe how frustrating it was to constantly keep hitting that knockout glitch during wizard mode! One time on the vita I literally had 20 smart punches when I entered wizard mode. My plan was to use them to completely destroy the last three guys... only to hit the glitch almost immediately on the first guy! :( I was so mad, lol. :mad: This led me to a new strategy that I'm not sure has been mentioned (maybe I just missed it if so). I would make sure to score 3 knockouts prior to starting wizard mode so that the next knockout would require 5 jab combos to initiate. This seemed to help quite a bit and I ran into the knockout glitch less often. It also makes getting to wizard mode quite a bit easier because you only have to beat 2 guys legit on the way there. I also have some random thoughts on the game which are pretty meaningless at this point, but I'll state them anyway. :p [LIST] [*]I think it would've been cool (and more fair) if fighters started with less energy and didn't max out until the last fighter. [*]With wizard mode being as challenging as it is, I think there should've been like a 60 second ball save, or at least longer than it is. [*]I think the outlanes are a little too unforgiving, just takes some fun away from the table for me. [*]I think instead of having an alternating second breath save in the outlanes there should be a way to enable one for each. [*]And finally, knockouts should be encouraged in wizard mode, not cause a glitch! lol [/LIST] :cool::cool::cool: [/QUOTE]
