At roughly the same point during my 2nd career (which I was playing on hard to unlock Bruce Lee), I <i>thought <\/i>I noticed the same thing, but I hadn&#8217;t been paying close attention&#8230; the difference this time being that on the hard difficulty, I was playing very defensive and focusing as much as possible on not getting hit.<\/p>\n<p>I finished the 2nd career at 40 fights (exactly the same as the 1st career), but with very different playstyles &#8211; my 1st being rabid dog style not caring if I was getting hit but going for the flashiest KO possible, and the 2nd being ultra defensive because the hard difficulty CPU could probably 1 shot me. The 40 fight ending on both careers struck me as strange&#8230; so I decided to try another career and document each and every fight.<\/p>\n<p>3rd Career: Normal difficulty, defensive (not ultra defensive since it wasn&#8217;t hard mode) play style. I did allow myself to get carried away and hulk smash stuff in a couple of matches, which resulted in slightly higher numbers of significant strikes absorbed in those matches. They do help to provide more significant strike absorbed vs career damage numbers in a sense, so nothing lost there.<\/p>\n<p>The link to the spreadsheet is at the bottom of the post&#8230; and yes, I got a little carried away with the chart.<\/p>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t want to look through the spreadsheet, the TLDR is here. Match 32-37 appear to be the matches (at least in this case study) where your career damage seems to be <b>MULTIPLIED<\/b>. A conservative figure would be 5x career damage during these matches&#8230; a non-conservative estimate&#8230; well&#8230; I can&#8217;t even calculate it.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 954px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/ywAAAAAAQABAAACAUwAOw==\" fifu-lazy=\"1\" fifu-data-sizes=\"auto\" fifu-data-srcset=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/i.imgur.com\/pecRaSY.jpg?ssl=1&w=75&resize=75&ssl=1 75w, https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/i.imgur.com\/pecRaSY.jpg?ssl=1&w=100&resize=100&ssl=1 100w, https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/i.imgur.com\/pecRaSY.jpg?ssl=1&w=150&resize=150&ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/i.imgur.com\/pecRaSY.jpg?ssl=1&w=240&resize=240&ssl=1 240w, https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/i.imgur.com\/pecRaSY.jpg?ssl=1&w=320&resize=320&ssl=1 320w, https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/i.imgur.com\/pecRaSY.jpg?ssl=1&w=500&resize=500&ssl=1 500w, https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/i.imgur.com\/pecRaSY.jpg?ssl=1&w=640&resize=640&ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/i.imgur.com\/pecRaSY.jpg?ssl=1&w=800&resize=800&ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/i.imgur.com\/pecRaSY.jpg?ssl=1&w=1024&resize=1024&ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/i.imgur.com\/pecRaSY.jpg?ssl=1&w=1280&resize=1280&ssl=1 1280w, https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/i.imgur.com\/pecRaSY.jpg?ssl=1&w=1600&resize=1600&ssl=1 1600w\" fifu-data-src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/i.imgur.com\/pecRaSY.jpg?ssl=1\" alt=\"Ooh charts!!!\" width=\"954\" height=\"394\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ooh charts!!!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I don&#8217;t know if this is a &#8220;bug&#8221;, a design flaw, or just intended to be this way&#8230; so please take this as my observation rather than some kind of demand for justice.
