Fight Night Round 4: Legacy Mode Revealed
Build the perfect brawler in the series' most-improved mode.
by Nate Ahearn

June 15, 2009 - Ask any Fight Night fan the one area where Fight Night Round 3 was seriously lacking and nearly everyone will voice the same opinion: the career mode sorta sucked. The rivalry system was a joke, the training games didn't make much sense, and there were no real ranking systems or at least none that resembled actual boxing. The series' new developers at EA Vancouver have gone in a different direction with Fight Night Round 4 and are giving players a more fully-featured mode than ever before. My created boxer, Nate White, has been through several bouts some good and some not-so-good but I'm going to put the controller down for a second to give you guys a report on what to expect from the all-new Legacy Mode in Fight Night Round 4.

As with most non-team oriented sports titles, you begin your career by creating your boxer. You have the option to start with a current fighter or meld your own using the typically deep creation tools provided by EA Sports or you can import your picture to use with Photo GameFace. I chose the latter and wound up with a decent looking representation of my mug. Some say he looks like Bill Clinton, but I don't see that as a bad thing.

But it's not just the look of your contender that you'll have control over. Instead you'll take a deep dive into their tactics in the ring, you'll have control over their ring entrance, and you'll even get to design your own lettering for their trunks. In the way of tactics you'll choose their stance, their manner in the ring (slugger, defensive fighter, etc), their blocking style, their punching style and you'll pick their best punch as well as their signature punch. I was a bit disappointed to learn that you can't change any of your tactics after you save your boxer. It seems that as my career progresses I should be able to change my best punch or my style in the ring. Sadly that isn't the case.

On the theatrical side of creating your boxer you'll get to decide if you want to look confident, focused or neutral as you enter the ring and you'll customize things like dry ice and lasers being present as you strut your stuff to the ring. It should be no surprise that I opted for the most theatrical entrance possible.

Another change for Legacy Mode is the inclusion of a real calendar where you'll be able to schedule your fights and training sessions. After every fight you need to take a pre-determined period of time off before you head back into the ring, but from there it's totally up to you when you fight again. You can only train once a week leading up to the fight, so the date you pick is definitely important to your success. Once you pick a day for your fight you'll be presented with a list of fighters that are around your ranking. You can then compare your stats to each and make your selection. Of course their availability also plays a part so you'll need to select from a list of available dates once you pick your opponent.

As you progress in your career you'll see changes to Legacy Central, your homepage for Legacy Mode. Your Legacy Rating will continue to build as you meet certain goals. I'm still waiting for my rating to jump from Club Fighter to Contender. To do this my fight count needs to exceed 15. Other ratings include Champion, Superstar, Hall of Famer, Ring Legend and, finally, Greatest of All Time. Each has its own set of requirements. To be considered the Greatest of All Time you'll need a popularity rating greater than 95%, your pound-for-pound rank (something that wasn't in FNR3) needs to exceed number five, you'll need at least three belts and you'll have to defend those belts at least eight times. In other words, it's no easy task.
