Simple Graphics
I've made these suggestions on some other threads, but since this is topic specific I'll restate them.
Before listing particular items, here's the foundatio point. We have images for referees, venues, and cornermen. The only time we see them is at the start of a match.
Why not make better use of them by incorporating a few very basic revisions ot the game's graphics
1) Keep the arena image constant throughout the match by having the capacity to set it as a backdrop for the play-by-play.
2) Code for a pop-up whenever there's something the referee is doing during the match---clinch situations would be too intrusive and annoying, but for foul warnings and counts after a knockdown, having an image of the referee with be a nice little enhancement.
3) Between rounds, have the cornermen pop-up on each fighters side of the ring and/or on the strategy selection screen. If between rounds the screen becomes too cluttered with the presence of the ringcard girl/guy (we certainly don't want to sacrifice that!), I'm sure that the pop-ups could be sequenced.
To conclude these proposed revisions are very simple to program into the game and do not involve "reinventing the wheel". The effort would be minimal and the enhancement substantive.
