Fighting Game General: What Went Wrong Edition

That Dragon, Cancer also won and he was given time to look up his speech on his smart phone. He gets a speech to weep and yet the one for best RPG didn't even get a chance for a speech, just announced it in the clutter like most of the awards given, even if it was for a DLC.

GREENLIGHT THIS CHINK FIGHTER
steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=808240819

Is there a playable demo or something for that game?

And the KOF and KI S3 devs are salty as fuck and even admit it. Dave Lang was pissed and said if KOF or Pokken took it, he wouldn't have any complaints, but giving it to SF V was madness. (Keep in mind Iron Galaxy is one of the studios rumored to be helping the UMvC3 port to current gen as well alongside QLOC)

And why wouldn't they be? SF V was an absolutely broken train wreck and still won an award versus games that had significant time and effort put in.

But the worst part is when crapcom will gonna make a "super edition" and put in the cover "fighting game of the year". I know that game awards is a joke but it will still piss me off. and people gonna buy again.

Exactly. Looks like today awards means the inverse. You win a award? you must be a shit. I only wanted kof wins because this Increase the sales and snk deserve this.

Yeah, OP is a faggot and probably bought Shit Fighter 5 too.

that looks so terrible graphically but as long as the gameplay is good I'll support it

No, thank you.

What happened to that Chinese KoF lookalike game where you had to create a QQ account or something? I never got around to playing it, but it actually looked fantastic.

Seeing that fat fuck around the 5 minuet mark do long ass combos where he keeps jumping and looping the same shit that go into stun into yet more long ass combos reminds me of how fucking shit it was to fight Rufus in SF4 vanilla

Capcom better not do that, I don't want to imagine what either side has shit up their sleeves & it would disappoint me that people would fall into the hype after what happened to MvC3 & Street Fighter V

Did Street Fighter V really win Best Fighting Game at the VGAs?

Aw did you really think these were ever honest awards to quality and not just bribery shitshows to see who has the biggest wallet?

2016

Was looking good until the description came along.

What the fuck. That could have been awesome. Fuck

Well, what about some Smash eh? I know how much you love it.

These awards are just vanity projects.

why

Is Juri good for a beginner??

Anyone got the NESICA emulator working properly? I manage to launch the games but they wont recognize the controller, even after configuring stuff with Jconfig

Of course it would win. Awards haven't been about quality since, well, ever. I mean just look at the GOTY nominees and the winner.

The just looks like Rivals in 3D. Even has a big guy that summons pillars.

If we're talking platform fighters, Dimensions Vs. is shaping up to look alright. They've gota dude who seems to basically be Space Dandy crossed with Kamina and Captain Falcon's moveset.

I hope they at least tell us who the first crossover character is going to be, soon.

I can't even name enough games worth nominating for a single category, let alone ones that would be considered "best" or anything. What actually could have won anything this fucking year? The whole year has been one giant wet fart.

Could have won? None because game of the year awards are for AAA tripe. Deserved to win? Tons of games, but they're too niche to get noticed.

T4 is still my favorite Tekken visually.

Probably Hasbro's fault.

It really looks like. But they only have one scenario to show. Weird.

It looks interesting.

I just realized that I forgot putting Revelator on PC being announced in the OP.

why am I not surprised?

you forgot your image mang

God, i want to choke on Mai's jugs so hard.

Today i will remind them.

This guy's a huge Capcom shill. He always goes to the steam forums to shittalk other fighters while putting SFV on a pedestal as if it has no problems.

Why even lvie?

There is a reason why Andy is still dancing around the issue

I've dicked crazy before. But I've never dicked crazy with cartoonishly big titties.

Dammit user, how many times are we suppose to tell you?; Don't have sex with your mother.

It was an accident, I swear. I was trying to find my sister's room.

SECOND door on the left!

No, that's my little brother's room. I found that out the hard way.

Okay but who cares. Awards are completely meaningless and that's doubly true for TGA

Probably Johnny, myself and a few other Chun-Li mains in the world called that upset.

VIVA LA FRANCE

Nuckledu is INSANE

lewd

Chuns all day.
Shame we won't see any Juri because she's Dan-tier.

THICC

You don't know the half of it.

I wish I was able to get hype for a snoozefest like this

This is lame as hell

it's SFV what did you expect honestly

Bionicle fighting game when?

I main Kopaka.

never ever since it's dead and the reboot bombed hard.

is it just me or does transformers constantly straddle having really good games and really shitty games?

>tfw want to main chun in every SF but don't like charge characters because I suck at them

Man, Devastation would have been way better without that stupid random loot system.

If we got a bigger sequel without that absurd loot system, that would be great.

Online Dominican dude just beat Tokido.

Didn't you hear? Charge characters are for people with low IQs. If you can't play them you must be retarded.

That would be a good start. Maybe a better final boss. With how much they were talking about Nova Prime and corruption, I was expecting that to be the final boss. Not just another Megatron fight.

And it was lame as hell Megatron fight too

she wins again

It had a ton of fucking soul to it, but the loot system chased away the people who just wanted to refine their combat reflexes.

It really would have been better to maybe hold off on having us fight him every other goddamn level, make him harder, and make him the penultimate boss.

If things continue this way, she's gonna win against Gamerbee too.

Laura's hair finally got fixed. Kinda.

First season 2 character will be playable this weekend at PS Experience. Or so they say. Either way, not holding my breath.

Why is Laura so forgettable? Hell, why are ALL the new chars besides RAAASHEEEDOOOO so fucking forgettable? FANG is just retarded and looks like some mugen fanfic bullshit, Birdie is plain lame and I don't even remember the other dude

Is this bait?

...

oh god my prophesy I told my friends is slowly becoming real; next they'll announce a "Fighter of the Year" edition that includes all the DLC from season 1.

That's how forgettable the fucker is I didn't even remember seeing him before

The HeShe prevails. At this point a Sako win would give Chunners a perfect Round 1.

I swear Ricky's looking more like Michael Jackson every time i see it. Really don't want to see anymore Chuns go through, hoping Wong can bring a solid Karin.

To be fair, I'd say Laura is just about as forgettable as her brother.

Who thinks that? Next to puppet characters, charge characters are the archetype I have the hardest time getting good with. Stopped me from really mastering Polimar but in my defense, I'm trash.

He posted a picture of who thinks that.

Some McDonald's employee who lost to Viscant once, nobody important. Charge characters work best for me, especially Chun because of waifu power.

Yukadon just freed up that Yun scrub.

there's been lots of upsets this capcup so far, missed some but this is kind of hype.

Are they going to have another ipad DJ this time at capcom cup?

Didn't the second game release in china?

I don't pay much attention to the fgc I just play the games.

Those two archetypes I mentioned are also the two that I really want to get good at because I usually find those characters to be very interesting mechanically. Back during the BlazBlue days I kept trying to main Carl Clover but wound up defaulting to Arakune.

All you need to know is that he's Black DSP, actually that's a bit insulting to DSP

Feels just as dialed-in as the Halloween set, but honestly anyone expecting anything less from seasonal costumes deserves to be disappointed.

I refuse to believe that only because nothing will ever be as bad as a man who played every souls game and learned nothing from them.

5-0.

Justin made the mistake of trying to beat Sako at his own game. IMO no one has cleaner footsies.

Well fuck. Looked promising in the first round, but shit went south fast

bets on fchamp v haitani?

Unless you mean he won one tournament on a game nobody played and has been riding that ego since.

Haitani, you have to play flawlessly for about 12 hours to beat a good Necalli with Dhalsim.

Except that Low Tier God has never won any tournament, people caring or not.

The thing is DSP sometimes says something correct when the moons align like all the shit about tim schafer, Might No 9 and DmC, he can at least see some bad things in the world.
Black DSP goes into fits of "muh dick" instead of thinking and defends any poor purchases he's made.

Hyped for Haitani vs. Sako next round.

It's not as lazy as the DOA ones but that's not really saying much.

Side note, been quite some time since they announced the Akiman costume for Chun-li. Guess they looked at it, realized that they don't want people getting used to the idea of paid cosmetic DLC that's pleasant to the eye and called it quits. Gotta keep the goys on a tight leash.

Maybe it was just a clipping nightmare, after all there are plenty of revealing DLC outfits already in the game.

Ryan just got bopped.

CAPCOOOOOOOOOOM!

smash confirmed for real fighting game

postan

He's already reached the point where he's tired of SFV's shit and he constantly complains about how much he hates it. It's mostly just him being a bitch though, everytime he loses he rages that his opponent was using a "top character" and rants that Capcom needs to nerf whatever character he lost to (all of them).

They may have shit the bed with the game but at least they fixed the tournament's format.

Oh shit, I'd forgotten all about that costume. What ever happened to it? Did they replace it with Chuns CPT costume?

Both of Infiltration's sets were solid, it's a shame he's out already.
That being said you don't mess with the 2D God.

rule34.xxx/index.php?page=post&s=list&tags=sprite animated&pid=75

rule34.xxx/index.php?page=post&s=list&tags=pixel_art animated

Is there a decent collection of edited sprites using fighting games for porn out there?

Sorry for the crap vid

...

No he's actually one of the more expressive Japanese players these days.

Welcome to SFV, everybody

People love pushing "Diago = Ryu" meme.

You are permanently banned from talking in capcomfighters.

Doesn't seem like it will be all that different from her default costume. Ditch the feather boa if it's that much of a code monkey headache.

Dunno. I think it was announced at the time they showed the tournament stage and all the shitty overpriced DLC it came with it. The time it was clear they wanted the DOA5 audience, if you will.
There's other shit they haven't mentioned in ages - legacy costumes for Alex and Ibuki and a remake of Dictator's SF2 stage.

Polite sage.

sfv is a shit game but the tournies are always hype

Laura vs alex woah. Somebody tell the europeans no fun allowed.

Laura frog making a good comeback. Got bonged so hard in the first match, it felt like I was watching someone who just picked the game for the first game getting wailed.

holy shit that last round

Well, that was quite the twist.

FIVE

FIVE THROWS

AH AH AH AH

who's your SF4 main supposed to be?

That's ryu from mobile suit gundam.

is tokido about to go 0-3?

MUH SKILL CAP
Fuck, watching this makes me happy I never played past turd strike

What the FUCK is this shit

...

Welcome to the game where Infiltration and Tokido lose to corner throw loops. Welcome…

To the Twilight Zone.

so is julio going to beat gamerbee?

Man, if only one that pointless esports award from The Game Awards, and then the next day get knocked out of the fight. I also burst out laughing when I saw two niggers playing for France and the UK.

HEH HEH HEH

SHAMEFUR DISPRAY

Now it's time for Gamerbee to get beaned.

Fuckin' EU can't collapse soon enough.

America is dominate

looks like gamerbee got it together

Previous thread: archive.is/xpbC9

Also, I don't think we should shill tournaments in the OP like CapcomCup unless we do that for every single major of every game. It's fine to inform that new content will be announced though.

Honestly, I have no hype for this tourney. But I changed to the japanese stream because I can't stand those two guys.

God I hope.

I remember being removed and then back again but I think you need a Korean phone number to play.

I hate Actvision.

Sure But it's been a while since I updated it.

is this the year of burgerland?

This set is zzzzzz

yeah ken got old

wtf I love smash now

Juli0-2

Laura, FANG & Rahisdo are the only completely new characters. Laura could have been better as a female grappler but R.Mika stole her shtick.

Didn't expect INfil to be kicked out 0-2

I think informing people about whatever events are going on isn't necessarily negative, quite a lot of anons actually like checking out this sort of shit and I guess it's like our own version of SPAWRTS, SUPERB OWL

This is embarrassing

...

No thank you

We should do that. I enjoy watching this shit with you guys.

Didn't think he'd pull through.
I haven't played SFV so I can't really tell but Necalli seems like a character that struggles heavily to control the match; seemed like the moment he let the opponent get momentum, he'd lose.
These last couple of rounds were mostly "owed" to good anti-air reads, a couple of poke hit confirms and, in the very's case, avoiding wake up shoryukens.
Don't know to how phrase but it just seemed like even Necalli was clearly dominating the match, it could turn over at any moment. I'd say it's because all of his moves look extremely telegraphed but spectator's perception is entirely different, of course.

Don't be mean user. Gamerbee worked for hard for Necalli win. :^)

It think its hilarious

The DS version of Bionicle Heroes was a bretty good FPS for the DS

Akuma/Gouki > Necalli
Necalli is when Akuma & Wolverine had a retard baby. Haha

Oh that's the guy I keep forgetting he exists. What a forgettable character

I'd rather have seen those two in Mahvel. Can't believe Justin lost to a Dhalsim.

Even the story mode acknowledges that he's pointless.

Anyway, FChamp's kind of a chode goblin but gotta admit it was kinda cool to see a 'sim kick ass.

...

SF4 Rose didn't look like Rose because of bad hair modelling….

Will any of the Shadaloo bosses will CapCup 2016?

Well, he didn't appear at the first one in 2013 but for 2014, 2015 and now 2016 he's gone 0-6.

If you meant win then no because Chun is taking this year.

wubwubwub

SFV Chun or 3s Chun… who's stronger ?

2 frame jab, everything about standing fierce, Phoenix Wing Fan, parries. 3S Chun for sure.

Anyways KICK HIS ASS JOHNNY!

3s free

who's our guy? humanbomb or luffy?

Your numbers.

...

luffy going for the bm

Who's left that can beat Luffy or Fuudo? Was there anyone on the tour with a win over both? I haven't paid much attention to the tournaments this year.

None of them because fuck this gay ass game.
Nice trips though

Checked

Agreed

Speaking of 3S Chun, MOV is mauling K-Brad.

...

Is Chun that good, MOV that good, K-Brad that bad, SFV is that bad, or all of them?

Brain says HB, Heart says Luffy
coin flip
HB

Chun is good, MOV is good, K-Brad is good, SF5 is shit.

...

Why does he do it to himself?

Xian loves a challenge
Remember when SF4 Gen was low-tier? Capcom nerfed him after he won Evo with Gen

[spoiler]I'm usually the OP of a few past threads and I already fuck up some news. Besides, I didn't even knew Japan already have some KOFXIV majors qualifying for its World Tournament. God knows about KI, Xrd and Blazblue
[/spoiler]

So then, maybe we should inform events here now?

He also loved Chin in KOFXIII. He's just a weird guy.

Chin was mad good as an anchor, but he wasn't Kim so nobody except Xian and Tokido used him.

...

...

Chin will always be one of the few KoF characters I can't wrap my head around. Every game I try him, it never clicks.

What are you doing?

I can't watch this shit anymore, SFV is too boring and only Xian is still in and playing a character that's fun.

Super SFV fucking when.

Never. CvS3, SFA4, DS4 or maybe a new fightan IP would have my immediate attention.

And all is right in the world.

That one has the best stages in any Tekken IMO. I was pretty sad when Tekken 5 went back to the flat/infinite stages.

Anyone remember when these two fought in Top 8 at EVO in Marvel 3? Now that was some hype shit back in the day.

Man Rachel's neutral in CF is so dangerous now, I miss Pumpkin ;_;

I'm pretty excited for Garou on PS4, hopefully nothing goes wrong with that. I'll buy that shit full price just for the hope alone of a Garou 2

JWong is free
Shoryuken!

that's what you get for playing bad chun li

pick a top tier nigga

I said I fucked up some OPs didn't I? :^)

Try KOF '96

I hate Nash, but I love seeing Ricky Ortiz lose.

i know why all those characters are bad except who's the happy hulk and the human morrigan referencing?

man-faced Morrigan is the future shitlord. Its time for women to be represented properly in games and not objectified! :^)

also
you dont see anything wrong there?

Happy Hulk is not necessarily a character, but a really bad drawing of the Hulk from a cover of nuSquirrel Girl, showcasing the level of quality control from Marvel.

oh god i found the picture

Every face is so punchable.

inb4 a tranny wins Capcom Cup

how the fuck do you even play ibuki in sf5? her projectiles are piss weak and the rest of her kit are moves that can be done better by others. I just got into fighters when sf5 came out but for the life of me i can't understand how to play her

Her kunais are actually one of her better tools due to the angle, the EX ones are great due to the explosion bouncing them, letting you combo or just push pressure in general. For the most part yeah she fucking sucks though, I just really enjoy her bomb combos and resets but she really needs a 2 bar V trigger because right now you basically have to wait until you're dead to get the mixup going.

Chink Hulk is Amadeus Cho. Banner is old and busted and the new kid is hip and cool.
He's just a stupid replacement while Banner is "out" just like Azrael was to Bruce in the 90's. But on the other hand, Hulk stories were never that good except Dr.Green.
I think they're forcing Miles to be the Nightwing of Peter but if he still have his retarded Venon Sting I'm not touching anything related to him.

Ibuki is not in SFV; it's her friend Sarai disguised as Ibuki….

Fucking hell, spoiler that shit.

When was the last time Ricky won something?

Does WNF count?

HB loses for using worst (blonde) Chunners

He certainly didnt win the genetic lottery

It's kinda sad Ricky used to be a relatively attractive dude but then he had the sex change and became an ugly woman

...

H-has Tasty Steve made SF5 actually kinda fun?

No, he just became a mutilated man

All dlc characters seem to be low tier

People say it's like they were made by a different team which is quite reasonable. You look at all of their data and compare them with the vanilla cast and it's all quite different; frames, hitboxes, etc

Rare footage of 2016 Daigo actually clutching.

That was actually a really fucking good match. Not like the shitty tempo SF5 has been stuck at before at all. It may as well have been GF for all the tempo, mindgames, discipline and clutch at work.

Our lord has been underwhelming, hasn't he?

Knowing that I can't be too optimistic about Capcom in the current year, all I ask for is that they keep the Clover duo without fucking them up. Maybe also throw in Gene to complete the trinity. That's all. I couldn't care less about mostly anyone else.

My nigga. Joe and Ammy were absolutely perfect in UMvC3.

I'm not going to give money to Capcom unless they add Gene and Asura to MvC4.
And even if they add them, I'm not going to buy on release, because Capcom has the bad habit of releasing broken games.

Indeed. It shocked me how well Capcom handled their characters without Kamiya.

Good point. I still remember Sentinel being a health sponge before the patch.

How do you fail at drawing faces like that? Shit, even Dobson can make better faces.

Progressive charity hire.

He's had a few crazy clutch matches this year, the one against GO-1 was mental

Is that Frank West? Why is he bad?

It's DR4 Frank West.

How do I fix this?

They completely recast Frank for DR4, and he comes off as a very different character. He feels like a focus group crafted Frank.

So?

You better not open that can of worms in this thread user.

vid related explains everything you'll need to know.

Fun Fact: Gene was considered for MvC3 but Amaterasu beat him. (Course thats from 2011 so god knows what they think of them now)
web.archive.org/web/20160518162722/http://www.please use archive.is/2011/03/11/actually-the-monster-hunter-team-didnt-want-the-hunter-in-marvel-vs-capcom-3/
>We talked about Gene, actually, at several times during the development process. Nothing against him, it’s always we have X amount of time and basically you’re guaranteed to break someone’s heart whenever you make decisions like this. Gene was talked about and Amaterasu sort of beat him out in some ways, so hopefully people like Amaterasu as well. Gene is a natural fit for an MvC type game, a very over-the-top, crazy kind of character. Still, he’s not out of the running in whatever we do next.

They say its supposed to be Frank but it doesn't feel or sound like Frank.

Sounds like fan autism.

I like his DR4 design more. In the original he looks constipated.

archive.fo/9dZwA
While I'm on there.
>Another fun request has been Kellogg’s, the cereal company. You could fight Snap, Crackle, and Pop. Then like Tony the Tiger. I was thinking the last boss could be the big K from Special K. You just have to punch this giant letter K.

Blonde Fighter V

If you say so, but this isn't the guy who covered wars, ya know? I get that they might chance the character up to update him or whatever, but there isn't a reason I know of to hire a new voice actor. It's not about some argument about how good a voice actor the original was (though I don't think the new one is particularly better), it's the fact that that was FRANK'S VOICE. That's the voice people are used to, that's the one fans wanted to hear.

Combine that with how luckwarm DR3 was, people in general are reasonably wary of DR4. Maybe they'll warm up to it, maybe they won't. But I've owned every previous DR game, and I'm waiting for reviews before I consider getting DR4. New Frank represents an overall lack of confidence fans have in what Capcom is doing with the franchise right now. You might consider that autistic, but others might just call you a casual, so it might be best to agree to disagree.

Doesn't spooky's stream go super ban hammer on anyone that gives Ricky even the slightest shit?

I haven't seen a whole lot of comments after they say she this time

Ricki's looking toasted.

Who is Ricky?

Ricki's looking legit.

So is the rest of this going to be pretty much Chun vs. Chun?

Yep.

riki oh

Who?

...

Yeah, you're right man this Frank is way better plus this time he's mature and an epic sassmaster XD

Also, he loves minigolf!! What a card! XD

I'd love to see F.A.N.G. make it to the end. Everyone else seems to be Chun or Mika, so I'd love to see one of the less popular characters get at least to top 8.

Whoever's playing F.A.N.G is gonna get 2nd place

That would be heaven.

Behold this image and weep, Marvel fans, for this is your future

Who is the middle-right one? The 'stop pretending to check out that waitress, I read your mind and you're gay'

Replace him with Rashid

What the fuck is you niggas problem with Rashid?

...

I don't have a problem mostly because I don't play SFV, but capcom would clearly be adding him to MvC if it happens

RIP F.A.N.G. DREAMS

Yeah… all those things are HILARIOUS. I repeat: what is the problem?

I can see why you can't see the problem because he's clearly made to appeal to a guy like you.

Me personally, I don't like how he's basically spotlight hero in the story mode, but that's more of a problem with the story mode and how it's terribly written more than a problem with Rashid himself. If you wanna talk bad characters, Laura doesn't have any character depth and Necalli has to be the most underutilized yet overmarketed character ever.

Also, either Rashid / Necalli will probably would be included in MvC4 as the SFV representative, much like C.Viper was part of MvC3 as the SFIV rep and did things such as focus attacks and EX moves.

It's more of a thing of 'I don't play SFV, but if this middle eastern person is in it must because of current year pandering don't tell me otherwise'. It's more because of the fighting scene in Dubai bugging for a rep, much like how Korea bugged for a while and got a Juri.

Necalli should be made to the definition of wasted potential

How he is when executed.

I wonder if there was meant to be some grand story for story mode but people kept asking so they just pumped out what we got?

I just realized, I don't even know where the fuck Dubai is on a map. Yeah, they dropped the ball with Necalli, unless they're planning ANOTHER story mode once season 2 is over. Because it's really odd that Necalli had no baring on the plot whatsoever, he was sorta there as a side problem.

I also think they'll loss Rashid and Nacalli into a MvC4 as well though. Rashid is a wandering, naive hero archetype, it would be kinda absurd NOT to have him in a game where there are superheroes. Not to mention the fact that they do need to still push SFV, and I can easily imagine his moveset being hypered up for a Versus game. Necalli will probably make it because I just don't see Laura or F.A.N.G. having a chance.

If Korea bugging got us Juri, and Dubai bugging got us Rashid… what's the next scene that will bug Capcom for a character? Anyone play fight games in Australia?

Captain boomerang in injustice

Fuck ye mate, knowin' how these focken' Chings think a Strayan bloke looks like you cunts can bet it'd be fuckin' ace, you fuckwits.

Have you ever had a character crisis in a fighting game? A character crisis is when you have trouble deciding on who you should main. I'm going through one right now with JoJo: Hftf.

I want a Canadian fighter whose taunts are him apologizing.

Yes, you should just like look up gameplay from other characters who you think you might like, learn their BnB's (Jojo BnB's LMAO) then play some AI till you get a mild feel for confirming and their playstyle.
If it doesn't click then feel better off who you felt better with, usually just trying to get better with the character you have is a quick cure for a crysis though.

Almost always. There are often characters I like that I want to main, only to be bad at them and better with others that I don't care about much.

i make shit

On left:

On right:

He's a cheap and annoying piece of shit in addition to being a mudbeard muslim with a fucking boring and generic design.

...

I hate SFV as much as everyone else here but he's not, otherwise there'd be two of him in the Capcum Cup top 8.

I think that user just sucks. Rashid is fun and all, but he just doesn't have the tools a lot of other characters do.

He is cheap if you play Birdie.

Chun

Nash & Chun SFV….

Boy I love ｐｕｒｅ ｆｏｏｔｓｉｅｓ

Where's Graham Wolfe? People told me he was great at ｐｕｒｅ ｆｏｏｔｓｉｅｓ, why isn't he at Capcup? That's what Vega did in ST, right? ｐ ｕ ｒ ｅ ｈ ｏ ｎ ｅ ｓ ｔ ｆ ｏ ｏ ｔ ｓ ｉ ｅ ｓ I love how SFV is a return to SF's roots.

I don't think Du plays Nash anymore, just Mika and Guile but he's never gonna play Guile for CC. That means there's two Mika which is just as bad as two Nash.
Combofiend and Ono are shits to think they can get away with not balancing the game for a whole year at a time especially with how stacked they made it for certain characters.

I mean of that list there is only two Nash's and two less Chun's than I expected

Its so boring to watch, only exciting match was Daigo v Sako

Justin Wong makes history for being the first to go 0-2 in 3 capcom cup appearnaces - wong factor

You mean that fucking game where the guy had his dying kid record lines for his game and then complained when people were watching it instead of buying it?

Vega wall-dive loops?

Am I the only person that actually wishes revelator got a dub, sign's was cool.

Yes.

...

No, Sign's was good and I wish for more of that. I'd be disappointed if it weren't dubbed, honestly; I've tried playing it with Japanese VA and it's not the same.

...

Dandy J is Australian, right?

Generic design compared to the hundred other shota characters in SF? His design is fine, and he's not really cheap when all of SFV is really just trying to out cheap your opponent with your cheap character.

You can just say 'I don't like him because he is Muslim'.

I'd rather dub than no dub, but I'm not that miffed about it. I only really liked Slayer's English voice. It would be cool if modders could put in PC revelator certain English voices from Sign.

That's one rare Dandy.

yeah I've been playing slayer and his dub is dandy . Is slayer as bad as everyone says he is?

Zappa in GG is aussie

This year has really made me think that most players don't know what they're talking about in terms of tiers

Who owns the rights anyways? Does Sunsoft still own them or did SNK get them like they did for World Heroes and other ADK IPs?

Most people have no idea how to accurately assess tiers, just look at EventScrubs sham of tier lists. People find it really hard to separate tournament performance from pure tools a character has. People can still suck with top tiers and do amazing with low tiers.

...

Cuckcom can't make SF right these days and you want them to make Alpha or something huge like CvS? Let alone DS, where most of its staff is on SNK anyway.

The silly thing is that Hawkeye kills Banner in the shitshow that is Civil War 2 because muh Hulk, forgetting that he hasn't been Hulk for a while

But you already got a Canadian rep. His name's Rashid.

Third one's modern Hellcat. It's a trainwreck to say the least.

What the fuck

Infiltration and Tokido went 0-2?

Man I stopped following after Infiltratin won EVO, what the fuck happened to this game

Nash was taking advantage of the 8f of lag, it's 6f now. Also infiltration has been not doing so well the last couple months. I honestly don't know what happened to Tokido, I haven't been paying to much attention to sfv either, but I heard that sfv has started becoming a more defensive game, and Tokido likes playing offensively so that is messing him up.

Like said, this Capcom Cup is in the Twilight Zone.

What the fuck capcom

Not really, infiltration hasn't been doing very well in the past 6 or so tourneys. He didn't even make top 8 for like 4 in a row.

People just kept making excuses saying he was sand bagging and assumed he was saving tech for capcom cup.

Tokido losing to Eita isn't surprising, Eita always beats him. I wasn't expecting him to lose to DR Ray though but its 50/50 fighter V.

To be fair, wasnt Infiltration using Balrog in the last two tournaments? Maybe he's trying to find a character since Nash seems to have suffered from the reduced input lag.

Jesus Christ SFV looks boring.
I've been the biggest Street Fighter nerd since I was 8 fucking years old and SF2 came to my local fish and chip shop, and I cannot muster up any enthusiasm for it at all. And this is after I bought multiple versions of SF4 on different platforms like a fucking retard. How could Capcom fuck up so badly? It's like that time they made Mega Man 9 and it was awesome, a perfect throwback to the good old days, and then they made MM10 straight after and it was complete shit. SF4 finally got a reboot that was pretty good, and then this…

Infiltration spoke about tiers when the game released and it's still surprisingly accurate - including him saying nash has a weakness so he'll be mid-high once other people figure nash out.

So he had almost a year to practice something other than nash, has spoken of having four pocket picks when alex came out, and lost capcom cup playing nash all the time :V

Do you guys play it? I think it is fucking awesome. Can't beat that Arina ass.

I don't think he's bad, just difficult to get results at high levels. I think he takes advantage of sloppy play and counterhits, so he can really destroy people.

I do, but extremely casually

They're abandoning the SFV ship.

Fuck I forgot the image.

What's Marvel like? It's not like it's coming to pc after what happened to SFV but still.

I just realized the Playstation Experience starts in about 30 mins.

I'm more excited to see KoF XIV's graphics patch and possibly get a release date for Garou PS4/Vita than I am for a possible MvC4 reveal and SFV season 2.

I'll be more excited when the PC port of KOF is finally announced, but those are all good things.

Despite all the things wrong with Marvel and Capcom these days, a new Marvel still has me hyped. An actual update to UMvC3 that made it not run for shit online would be great, but I hear less and less people confident in the rumor of it getting a rerelease. Overall though, it's an interesting time to be into fighting games, a lot of shit is going on.

The whole graphix patch thing seems like it's just a big prep for the arcade/PC version so people that bought the PS4 version don't feel like they bought a beta.

MvC4 trailer in PSX. Though literally nobody cares.

...

Did they say exclusive at all for MvC4 itself? Because, fuck, I really want a PC release of this shit.

They didn't say MvC4 is exclusive, only UMvC3 is

Marvel vs Capcom Infinite announced.
Mega Man X, Ryu, Iron Man and Captain Marvel (Carol Danvers) shown.
Ryu pops something that gives him a purple aura. MSH's gem system returns? Infinite could hint at this. Thanos will probably the end boss.

Mahvel 4 practically confirmed for 2v2
And it has current Captain Marvel.

RIP.

They also teased Sigma at the end.

PS4, Xbone and PC (steam)

Looks like complete poop. Where did all the FX bux go?

akuma's new hair looks like shit

HAVE THEY LEARNED NOTHING FROM SFxT!?

Oh wait that's right Capcom

He looks like Ganon from Hyrule Warriors if he was a homeless man

Welp, we just saw Akuma!

problem is his hair was pretty iconic

...

Oh god
what if it's a f2p title?

didn't a marvel game have stones you could pick up during the fight that boosted stuff

hopefully its just that

blog.us.playstation.com/2016/12/03/marvel-vs-capcom-infinite-hits-ps4-in-2017-2v2-battles-infinity-stones-more/
Fuck

FUCK

They're pulling a similar stunt in the new Injustice game. Why is something like this needed in a fighting game outside of modes not meant for tournaments? It just promotes people getting the most broken items in the game to win rather than rely on actual skill.

Yeah, I just wish I could convince my housemates to play it with me (or any decent fighting game) rather than just SF3. I think it gets less fun the better you are at it since it just turns into a defensive super fest. I still really like it, and it's interesting to see the bits here and there that influenced GG.

That sounds reasonable. I sure hope so.

Purple gem thing is special upgrade items that you get from beating people online. You use the loot to strengthen attributes of your team; attack, defense, super etc. Extra gems will be available through a capcom online store.

It's SFxT all over again.

Yes. Marvel Super Heroes.
Gems granted some generic powers but specific characters would get special buffs from specific gems;; IIRC Power would give Captain America's specials a SFA-esque silhouette trail and Mind would let Psylocke create two doubles like her special in COTA.
Thanos was the endboss and he had six supers (one per gem).

Found Akuma

I think NRS confirmed there'd be an option so that gear doesn't have any effect. Who knows if Capcom is going to be willing to do something similar.

That godawful hair.
Shun Goku Satsu is now a ranbu instead of dragging the opponent's soul to Hell.

I didn't expect anything and I'm still disappointed

What the fuck is with that hair? How can anyone think that is cool? It is fucking disgusting.

Oh my fucking god they removed his tatsu and added some armored kick move instead

GAROU TODAY, BITCHES!

FUCK YES

MUTHA FUCKING WINDJAMMERS!

I surprised how well this event is turning out

From the brilliant minds that brought you Lura, Rashid, Necalli, Ken's alternate, Ibuki's new look etc etc. It's clear something is rotten in the kingdom of Capcom. I, for one, blame CoA. :^)

But don't worry, you can have Akuma's classical look…for the symbolic fee of $3,99.

Anyway, here's a tease of the season 2 characters. Guess away folks because I've honestly no clue.
in b4 dataminers solve this shit in a couple of days

Second from left is either Haggar or Peter, leftmost is the bitch from story mode.
Not a fucking clue for the other 3.

I just hope they fix the game.

This industry expects us to purchase a product before we even have a clue what the thing we're buying is.

The third hidden on looks like it might be Sagat, the last one might be Blanka.

That's literally been the case for years now. Fuck Season Passes and Preorders.

Oh so apparently Umvc3 is also coming to the xbone and steam, it's just a timed exclusive to PS4

Yeah, I'm hearing March. I want to know if it's a rebalance in any way. One more balance patch could do a lot for that game.

It says completely new characters, so I thought that meant no returning ones.

I'll buy it on sale if they finally make Hsein-ko viable

The worst that Capcom can do to Marvel 4 is be as aimless in direction as they were with SF5, and to make it a much more shallow game as a result. If they try and make it more like MvC2 or 3, then it should be fine.

You know, the last cry for an UMvC3 balance patch actually got a lot of attention. Since they're putting people on the game anyway, do you think they might listen this time? If we act now and get a lot of communities like Shoryuken et al. on board, they might find it hard to ignore us.

The fuck does "5 completely new characters" even mean. Do they mean never before seen ever, or just new to SFV? I also can't take Akuma seriously with that hair

Probably just means new to SFV. So, as much as I'd have a good laugh at all 5 of them being Rashid, it just means anyone who isn't in yet, not new to Street Fighter entirely. I figure one or two are completely new though.

Yeah, hopefully they have a good direction for 4. I can enjoy SFV a bit, but everything seems so toned down, they can't have a feel like that for a Versus game.

Unless they mean "completely new" from a gameplay aspect. In which case, it could be anyone.

So, is Windjammers exclusive? Because we all need in on that.

It's a PS4/Vita port like what's going on with Last Blade 2 and Garou

does the second from the right look like it could be another ninja? Sarai maybe?

twitter.com/itzRomance

nice, hope the patch goes live tonigh

Let's hope.

thank god

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Anyone catch what game this is?

I tuned in and out from the stream.

Some people are saying it might be Rolento.

Sounds good. Honestly thought it would take longer.

They still haven't completely lost their marbles. That or someone warned them he looks ridiculous with Felicia hair.

Akuma stuff if anyone's interested:
A staple of the Street Fighter series ever since his secret appearance in Super Street Fighter II Turbo, Akuma is a savage, but well-honed Ansatsuken master consumed by the Satsui no Hado. Akuma represents the danger Ryu faces if he is unable to control the Satsui no Hado within him, and while Akuma appears to have some set of morals, he believes the highest form of battle is that in which participants put their lives on the line.

Akuma returns to Street Fighter V, displaying his mastery of Ansatsuken and while he has become burlier than previous games, he possesses quick footwork and devastating combos. He has a wide array of destructive tools and is able to completely out-class opponents with his oppressive pressure. His moves and stances often strike poses reminiscent of Buddhist statues and Ukiyo-e paintings.

How does Akuma feel about Ryu’s approach to overcoming the Satsui no Hado and what is his relationship to Necalli? Be sure to check out his character story to find out!

V-Skill: Rakan
Akuma strikes a defensive stance and similar to Ryu’s Mind’s Eye, can parry an incoming attack. He can follow-up the move with an upward kick or a long reaching palm strike.

V-Trigger: Dohatsu Shoten
Akuma powers up and envelops his body with ki to enter Dohatsu Shoten mode. In this mode, his Gohadokens are more powerful, now able to travel full-screen and he can unleash two in the air even while jumping backwards. Additionally, when he lands his Goshoryuken attack, he follows-up and violently drives his opponents into the ground.

Critical Art: Sekia Koretsuha
Akuma channels an incredible amount of ki into his palm and drives it into the ground, striking the opponent with an exploding pillar of fierce energy.

Critical Art: Shun Goku Satsu
Only accessible while in Dohatsu Shoten mode, Akuma’s most powerful attack returns. He glides towards the opponent and grabs them, resulting in a series of devastating strikes in the blink of an eye.

As announced at PlayStation Experience, Akuma is coming to Street Fighter V on December 20th alongside our Holiday Content, B-Boy Ryu and B-Girl Chun-Li. Akuma’s Story, Premium Battle and Nostalgia costumes will also be available when he releases on the 20th.

2017 Character Pass

If you want to be in the best shape for 2017, the 2017 Character Pass also releases on December 20th for $29.99 / €29.99 / £24.99 and will grant pass holders with Akuma, in addition to 5 brand new fighters as they join the fray throughout 2017. The pass also comes with Premium Battle Costumes with colors 3-10 unlocked and default costume colors 3-10 for each character. Additionally, 2017 Character Pass holders will receive an exclusive PS4 theme!

According to a tweet raging demon still has the same input
twitter.com/discovigilante/status/805134049891094528
Still has stubby limbs and it looks like fireballs don't go fullscreen

Oh and it looks like you can't do back jump air fireball outside of v trigger

Second trailer. Look at all that fucking hair clipping.

I have to respect them referencing the best akuma winpose

Everyone is clipping like crazy in SFV. Still, he looks like he could be pretty fun. Though now I wonder if Akuma will look like that or his classic design in MvC4.

I mean, I'll get UMvC3 again just to have it on PC, but I would love if they told us if it was rebalanced or anything else. Also curious what they did about Magneto's costume, since it pissed of Spain.

WHAT THE FUCK

If I buy UMVC3 will you guys help me get better? I've only ever played air dasher games in training mode cause they seem frightening.

I always wanted to play it because just the idea of having a playable Firebrand, Arthur, Amaterasu and Ghost Rider sounded cool as hell to me.

You'll probably find a few of us willing to fight you, depending on the system. I can't hope for anything as amazing as crossplat play, but each system should have a few players.

capcom-unity.com/harrisony/blog/2016/12/03/akuma-the-master-of-the-fist-is-coming-to-street-fighter-v

tl;dr

His fireballs outside of v-trigger are Oni tier
His v-skill is red focus with that up kick from the trailer
His demon is only available in v-trigger (this is the worst one imo)
His fireballs are better in v-trigger (double air fireballs, fullscreen fireballs)

Good thing is that he seems to be able to throw fireballs from a back jump.

Live footage from Romance: fb.me/2zChUJP46

That's great! I was mostly referring to the news that it's arriving on pc as I have no other way of playing it.

Important poll

Given that Capcom hasnt learned anything from SFxT, my vote is yes.

WEW

Garou is up on PSN in NA and EU now

I know he always had the big nose, but the lighting makes him look like a fucking jew caricature

...

Ah my mistake
I am a fag who didn't read the thread
Anyway, his design is pretty bad. Even the CFN profile design is more interesting
Hopefully his alts are good because he legitimately looks like a fun character, aside from the demon and normal fireballs. I wish he took the better stuff from oni like the demon palm and instant overhead

See, that look would've been rad. Instead we get downs Liono

YOU DON'T OWN NOTHING YOU FUCKING GOYIM

Why did bees attack his face?

You are aware gems were in the first Marvel Super Heroes fighting game right?

Fucking newfag.

JESUS CHRIST AKUMA WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOUR FACE

Who's face is worse though, Akuma? Or Ken?

Just checked event scrubs and his alt 1 is the CFN one but with his shitty hair
Better than nothing I guess

I still say ken

Nice of them to have an alt with a decent looking nose

Regarding MVC Infinite I am so glad they aren't using Captain Marvel's shitty bulldyke design. I mean look at this garbage, aagaghagajhakhahldsgse;flhb it's fucking horrible.

kill capcom

UMVC3 only has a select handful of characters that can airdash.

Keep in mind in this game you can choose any character you want but not any TEAM you want. Pick who you want to be your point character and then build the team around practical assists for him.

Huh… I thought they just had that as his face, but even they know his new nose is straight up huge. Wonder who made that call.

It's honestly never been THAT BAD a design, but it does have a few key flaws that MvC4 looks to be avoiding. For the comics, the short hair sucks because apparently no one can agree how to draw it. In the recent Civil War 2 event, her hair would sometimes change style dramatically from PANEL TO PANEL. The other big problem is a lot of artists just draw Carol in a manish way. Which, no matter what she wears, is no the body she has had for the last 40 years. She's always had huge tits and a phat ass. In her own book there are times when she's drawn almost flatchested, and it's retarded. Even that picture there really tones down what her body should be. There are a lot of modern Marvel artists who just refuse to draw her sexy, and it sucks to waste a character who was always intended to at least have some sex appeal.

...

I have to admit, scouring twitter for what the new version is like is more fun than actually playing
youtube.com/watch?v=vYBTkDMq7WU

Now I'm just hoping someone will say that balrog got mad buffs too

Fighting game general: Akuma Matata edition?

And then I read that screw upper got REMOVED
I don't know what the fuck to think now

...

MVC4 IS REAL

Hopefully they add more/replace specials

Well at least it isn't that far away.

HA!
Any other notable changes or a list I can look at?

There doesn't seem to be a list. You just have to do some detective work on twitter
Also Alex can now do f.hp into st.mpxxlp flash chop. Woo

I've heard as much. I've read that Ghost Rider has shitty air presence so he has to have a team dedicated around ameliorating that.

How does character synergy work with switching then?

Give me a proper port or remake of Tatsunoko vs Capcom you bums.

Bug Nintendo to fund it. Cause I don't think anyone else would bother.

user he could always do that

Pokken related question: does upgrading your Pokémon affect them in MP as well as SP?

I thought you couldn't do it outside of counterhit

No

Upgrades are single player only

Nice. (No Luong though… T_T )

OT note, while there was nothing new to tickle my fancy but KoF patch, free Raven DLC in GR2, more Ni-Oh, release date for NieR Automata (07-03-2017) and knowing two Yakuza titles are getting localized made this PSE thing quite worthwhile.

Jesus Christ! Get in the car!

No, I'm pretty sure you can
Give me a sec and I'll test it out

ＳＨＯＵＳＨＩ！

Death's too good for them.

THE POWER OF DUBS WON'T HELP YOU, IMPOSTER!

Ah you were right user. My mistake

Okay.

...

Leftmost is Ingrid going off that hairstyle

Ono is gonna do it

SFV is almost okay

don't you mean [sp]almost okay[/sp]?

:^)

People are saying it's Helen/Kolin. That might be her ushanka.

The most absolute of madmen.

Hey, close enough right?
Throws have also been nerfed so there's more recovery after grabbing someone, apparently meaning no more throw loop shite.

pls no

He looks like a fucking flower

DLC costume confirmed

...

alt

I wonder if Gouken will try to surpass him on the stupid hair department. Like, doing cornrows or shave half his head.

NEW THREAD

...

I thought Capcom said they weren't going to nerf the strong characters, but buff the weak ones? Anyone got that ppt slide?

My nigga.

Capcom like constipated man - full of shit.

Man AKumer looks sick
