Fighting Game General: Let's do like SNK and Play More

Wrong pic fuck

I don't watch streams but I'm still having no problem finding matches and rooms anytime of day.

KOFXIV is far from being dead but Orochinagi sure wants to:
orochinagi.com/kofxiv/feedback-and-bugs

Someone should stop Atma and Gunsmith

Every game require PS+ for online play. Only app services like Netflix and Youtube don't need it.

Expect some shaolin brotherhood. Also,
The bar is really low so it's not saying much.

Getting a bunch of Pis with MAME and cheap monitors.
y/n?

I know shit like FFXIV didn't and if they're planning eventual crossplay, it'd be stupid as fuck to charge PS+ when PC players could play online for free.

Jesus christ every fighting game is like that. What's the point of giving people false hope when they could never win anyway?

You're such a stuipid asshole.
To make a local FGC you have to possess basic social skills.

DO YOU THINK ANY FUCKSTICK HERE HAS ANY AMOUNT OF SOCIAL SKILLS?
I could slap the everloving shit out of every single one of you and the best you could come up with as a retort IRL would be

Before crying into your dakimakuras.
You're a bunch of loser spergs that only exists to be automatic spaghetti dispensers.

You'll never be FGC, neither of the small or the big kind, if there -is- a local FGC where you live, you'll never enter their social circle.
This is why every single one of you will remain a stream monster at best, shitposting on Holla Forums all day and watching people immensely better than you play the genre that you love, while you wither away in your loneliness.

Every single one of you is a goddamn joke, you'll never amount to anything.

Sup Ono

This isn't exactly a fighting game so far

I know they're all pretty bad but are any of them worth playing?

Want a snickers?

are you the
guy?

Ofcourse it's so easy to make a scene!

It's not like noone on my fucking city wants to play any fucking games that is not LoL or trash like that, even less fucking fighting games.

Do you really think it's so easy to pick up a place where you can set up everything? Or that everyone has the time and money to do this as a hobby?

I don't know where you are from, but that is fucking impossible here.

Yeah sure lemme just get all the money required for the hardware, on top of somehow getting blue pilled liberal faggots to stop getting offended at video games, and then somehow convince them to become competent at vidya.

tfw thriving local scene

Honestly is this game going to change to fighting game at some point or is this actually a Hack'n Slash game? This was not what I was expecting, I just downloaded it after seeing it popular on an emulation site

It's a good game, but it has nothing to do with fighting. It's a hack and slash and you can unlock sub-zero and Scorpion to play instead of Kung Lao and Liu Kang which feel better.

Found a new secondary after faust as main

Y

I didn't say it was easy. I live in a small town and by finding one other person managed to turn that into seven regular players. Have you tried asking around or talking to people? I doubt your entire city is dead set against playing a fighting game, like I said some people are just looking to hang out and are willing to try. One day a week to meet people and play games in your house/room or at a community center is not going to break the bank or somehow take up all your time, either.

What do you need for hardware? A PC? A PlayStation and a TV? Gee, that is out of the realms of most people… If you play fighting games then you already have the hardware to allow another player to join you. Invite people around to your house. They install the games on their PC or bring over their PS next time, and then you can have two screens and two games going at once. That's enough hardware for four players.

Whinging that everyone is a liberal is pathetic. Don't you have any friends at all? None of my friends like fighters, but I still managed to find other people willing to play and learn. You can teach people how to get gud, it's not that hard. Do you really need to socialise with these people and talk about their politics?

Well, I stand corrected then. But SFV, RocketLeague on PS4 requires PS+ and both have crossplay with the PC version. Does KI on Windows10 requires a Live subscription to play online?

Because it's not a fighting game. Enjoy the ride.

You start small. I started playing with an old highschool friend who haven't talked in years some Virtua Fighter just because he "liked Tekken3 years ago". This weekend we'll play on the "common area" of the building where my friend lives with only two TVs, a PS3 and a PS4 for about 10 people. I'll bring my notebook if anybody hopefully wants to play some older games on FBA or KOF'98UMFE/2002UM. But many people here only liked SF, KOF and Tekken3 when they were young and are not really offended by DOA, Mai and other stuff Well, some girlfriends/fiancées do but fuck them if they're jealous of a fictional character.

Stay positive user, have you tried showing Rising Thunder to them and saying Riot bought the team and probably the whole project?

Also for the guy wanting more Mian, here's a set with Frionel. I don't know if it really helps.

That's surprising. Well, at least Tekken 5 was popular as well and I downloaded that too, I can play that for a fighting game I guess. That is unless that one is not a fighting game either, of course

Nope.

Keep doubting, because it's real. I have more chances opening a scene for card games than fucking fighting games here.

I'll ask again, where are you from? Just the country, that should tell me enough.

posting.

Deception has a funny conquest mode and Armageddon has motherfucking MOTOR KOMBAT that's by far the best thing of the game

I remember 5 having a Tekken Force mode being a 3D beat'em up aside from the traditional versus fighting modes.

ngi-revolution.co.uk/player-list/
This is a major advertised and claimed to be one of the most popular anime fighting events in the UK.
87 people after a month of sign up time.
London is no more then 3 hours away from anywhere in the country.

I think it's safe to say a scene isn't as alive as I'd hope especially when there are a lot of pond jumpers in the names.

Im in Australia.

Why do you say that? Have you tried?

Is Deception like this one or is that a fighting game? I might download it if it's good.

I played Armageddon on my friend's PS2 years ago. I remember a few things about it. IIRC it doesn't have actual fatalities, it has something like create your own fatality system but because of this everyone uses the same fatalities and I didn't like this. Also I think it has the biggest character number of any MK games but I remember they weren't unique or anything. It also has character creator I think, but I remember not liking that either. I don't think I'll play Armageddon, unless I remember wrong and it's really good or something

Also talking about characters' uniqueness, I usually read Killer Instinct is the best at this, like every character feels different. I never played KI, should I try them? I'm not installing W10 so the recent one is not possible, can I even play others on PC?

Deception is a fightan

Is there any people that play +R and are either in iowa or willing to put up with the spotty but really not as bad as people say it is netcode
hell I'd play with a xrd fag if he was local, not that I own it

Working towards that goal of a local scene, with help of local youth center. We had meeting last week where people could give their opinions on what games, hardware etc, they are going to get.

It's going to be more of a general space for afterschool game projects, but I'm hopeful that they can dedicate a room or a cozy corner for FG-related stuff.

on a side note, hosted a FG-corner for seventh graders. They were actually really excited and interested, saying that they didnt even know such games were still made.

Because there was a fucking scene of fucking SMASH of all games and there was only TWO guys on the entire fucking city. TWO.

There's no fucking WAY there is a chance, if that party game that everyone and their mother knows only gets two you know how many people will come for KoF, GG or even SFV?

Compared to other titles? It seemed pretty large to me. A simple combo with two meters can shave half a life bar.

One Character Victory, right?
Been on the receiving end of plenty of those, even in Party Mode when there's only enough "that guy" for one team.

Thank you. I mostly whine about not being man enough for Luong but I've been trying to figure the dork as well. My fingers still aren't nimble enough to play her like a Devil May Cry "stay airborne for 30 seconds" secret mission though.
I like to watch these to see if I can pick up a trick or two or at least see how the character is "meant" to be played.

What's shaking /fgg/? Most of you tend to be idiots I cannot stand but I do like some of the things I find year and enjoy talking and in the rare cases helping. So hello all.

Mian is super cute.

I am terrible at Guilty Gear but I do play it. I have +R on PSN but as far as online only play on PC. So if you have it on PC I guess give me a call if you want to play some.

What the fuck does he want the game to do? The rush-combo is already enough casual shit in the game, if they aren't willing to git gud and experience loses than then the genre isn't for them.

Beginners are always gonna walk away from fighting games regardless on how much you coddle them.

So because those smash guys failed to start a scene you aren't going to bother? Come on. You have to actively make it happen and can't just wish someone else will do it.

Smash failing to get an audience isn't a bad thing if you want to play different games.

The only excuse you can use is "I tried for a while and couldn't find anyone", and it's not as likely as finding people to play with.

Smash still has a bigger audience than pretty much every non Capcom game like it or not.
Cool for them and I am pretty jealous when games I like barely get a third of the audience.

That's why I said you should play Motor Kombat and not the rest of the game.

Deception is better than Deadly Alliance and MK4. Armageddon I thing they just ran out of ideas like that shitty create-a-fatality and fighter. KI was on SNES I still have my cartridge and N64 so you might try emulating.

Well, have you considered my idea ?
Also, what said is relevant. If you don't even want to be near those people on a sociable level, it's not really worth the effort. I have friends who only like LoL and my brother only plays DotA but I don't need to only talk about that stuff with them.
Smash failing doesn't mean much. Different games for different audiences. I myself never really cared after the first one. I have friends who only like 3D fighters and don't even care about Street Fighter.

You're doing god's work user. The genre must live on.

What the fuck does he want the game to do?
Also Atma's blog: archive.is/iEg21 I'm not giving clicks to that whiny faggot
Also, looks like Atma recently got his ass kicked in a long set and didn't even reach the other guy's anchor once.

As a Slavshit from a shitty Slav country it's kind of perplexing to me that Smash is as popular as it is (apparently more than fucking Street Fighter) since I've personally first heard about it when I got internet and I've never heard about anyone who saw it anything other than a fun casual party game. You're more likely to organize a successful local tourney in something like Bloody Roar 2 here than Smash.
The scene's usually divided into people who play 2D fighters (usually SF, JJBA: HftF and KoF) and don't give a shit about 3D fighters and vice versa (the 3D fighter that's most popular being Tekken and recently DoA).

That would require me to go outside, which I'm not going to do.

KOFXIV ON PC WHEN

I try my best in this god forsaken place despite what everyone says. I always carry my hard drive filled with MAME games, ps1-2 emulator for 3D fighters, latest version of Fightcade for online play and other pirated games like GGXrd, KOF XIII and UNIEL recently. My plan goes like this:
Easier said than done though. Most of the time i catch nothing and come back with my money spent for nothing. And surprisingly northern/rural parts of the city are easier to attract. Maybe because they're too far from the metropolis to be influenced by them.
And i'll be sure to try it in my college now that i learned there's no longer a designated assfaggots class.

Jesus Christ what a child. Like I can understand wanting to get the few quirky glitches left in the game fixed, but wanting whole mechanics changed because someone is better than you is ridiculous.

I don't get that salty when I fight someone better than me. I just learn from my mistakes and keep on playing.

I'm not knowledgeable enough to make any smart suggestions of game balance but K', Nakoruru and maybe Athena could use a taste of the nerf hammer.
More importantly, I'd ask for Antonov to be buffed. He's fun but playing him is the uphillest of battles. At least let his charge feint grab connect on crouching opponents.

why is this guy such a faggot?

I don't even know who that is

So you are looking to have a lan-party, lan?

That isn't skisonic

Aye

I'm a little cautious on bringing the nerf hammer arcsys style. I would rather tweak some small stuff like Nakoruru's safe pressure and the invul cling. Athena's problem lies more that she can safely cancel her psycho ball into Climax and the damage she can do with her command grab that has some invul on the start. K' needs the treatment Kyo and Iori got from the demo/XIII transition.

Antonov I would also just tweak a few things like you said it. The problem with heavy changes on the balancing is that people are still finding new tech. Like at the release, nobody gave a fuck about Love Heart but after seeing what her cr.C into combo damage can do, she's already a top tier right besides Robert, Geese, Athena and others.

But of course I want glitches and bugs fixed like the weird "wrong side after rolling/crossup/cr.C from some characters".

That's one thing that I like about KOF is that it clearly shows how awful or good you were on a match. They give tools like more meter for the player losing but it's not a fuck you button like Ultras are in SFIV for example.

-Athena doesn't need to have a grappler tier command grab on top of everything else
-Nakoruru's bird breaks KOF at a fundamental level
- K-'s just funny and will still probably be high tier after nerfs

I'd like to see Ralf buffed, his HCF punches and DF.A are way too wonky. Ralf kick has almost no purpose, and his explosion has no real purpose outside of the corner.

That wasn't funny Carlos fuck off
But yeah you can call it that

What the hell SNK and Atlus.

What the hell SNK and Atlus.

Oh, and sorry no fuck Robert. He's the vanilla SF4 Ryu whose only mediocre tool is a command grab. Either tone down his damage or tone done one of his many, many tools.

Exctly

That thing has ridiculous range. Love players just bully with that shit and sword pokes. I'd say she can do it with borderline impunity but I admit I still can't do forward hops consistently.

Speaking of normals, something curious I noticed with Luong is that her s.C and s.D despite looking like they hit at the same height, s.D will whiff on most crouching opponents but s.C hits.

Likely because yolo super rarely works here. That was probably the bad habit I dropped the fastest. But now it got weary of even trying to use supers outside of combos (Luong's Climax does have deceptively long range).

Japanese and Chinese tier lists do place him in the S tier.

[SS] K '. Nakoruru
[S] Kim. Leona. Athena. Robert. Mature. Mai. Benimaru. Zarina
[A +] Geese. Verse. Love Heart
[A] Iori. Chin. Shun'ei. Dinosaur. Mian. Luong. Kukri

Would love an explanation on Zarina, Dino, Mian and Luong though.

only change is that Alex is now on the small list for SF5 and Peach and Ice Climbers switched places for main and pocket in Melee.

If I don't buy the cosmetic DLC, how will they be able to fund the PC version?

If the KoF XIII release is anything to go by; you got 1.7 years to go for the PC release.

a-at least we'll get Tekken 7 soon r-right anons?

Oh you'll get it soon; but it will have the always online Devuno like Bandai Namco injected into God Eater's PC ports.

WHEN WILL THE NIGHTMARE END?

-Love heart

doesn't need to do 50% damage off a special that instantly whiff punishes and murder anyone that isn't in A tier for the game

-Leona

also probably the 2nd best after K-, probably doesn't need priority in everything

Don't forget no crossplay at launch due to pc having cheaters which could be a liability for harada

avoidingthepuddle.com/news/2016/9/23/high-chance-cross-platform-play-may-not-be-in-tekken-7-at-co.html

I hope the pc version will get enough casual support so it can make it to crossplay

I'll at least have friends to play with so I'm not too worried about that. I do hope for everyone else though that crossplay becomes a thing.

oh and Mai definitely doesn't need priority on her air drop move.

that shouldn't be able to beat out a Daimon st.D/air grab

Do you guys think indie devs could save fighting games or do you think the FGC is cucked beyond repair?

They're cucked by the e-sport twitch scene mafia I guess. If an indie game came out that attracted SF, KoF, Anime and 3d fans all to one game it could succeed but without major sponsor ships it's going to need an autistic and dedicated fan base a la melee to spread its spores, I think.

But it's clearly more than just the quality of the game at this point otherwise people would still be playin ST and other games competitively and streaming tournaments for them just as much as V.

I really just fucking want a Kill la Kill fighting game.

That already exists

OUT

hey man, I'm just giving you what you want

I really enjoy the PS2 era MKs. The FGC think those games are trash, but they were nice experiments in what MK should become. And hell, some of the extra modes were fantastic to play too. If you are looking only for the best at fighting, go for Deception, if you want a game that is just crazy with content go with Armageddon.

This makes me happy. How do unlock my prehistoric power?

...

mash normals and occasionally do that armor grab to bait newbies

get massacred vs a good player

I would avoid KI. Season 3 is a clutter fuck mess with Shadow Lords possibly having microtransaciton shit to play it (all the character models are really ugly; like Dreamcast-tier ugly). Someone in the last thread said the recent patches ruined inputs and the like.

Juicebox is autistic. That might be why he is a douche.

Deadly Alliance wasn't too bad, but Deception is hit or miss. Armageddon is complete ass.

Do what people do for the Syrup Cyborg; abuse armor/guard points

I don't get it

I'm wondering how dinosaur is as good as he is, but Maxima is mid tier. Is it the guard point on the overhead plus his command grab? is it the OTGs? I'm trying to isolate the variables here.

Hey, guys rememeber when we laughed about the SFV update!? Well…

archive.is/sbswf

shoryuken.com/2016/09/27/vesperarcade-warns-of-street-fighter-vs-new-survival-mode-bug/

(in case the archive link doesn't work. It was acting up on me).

Yup, definitely not an intentional glitch to make people buy those colors with real money, guys. (end sarcasm)

Oh, Capcom.

How bad is the input lag on Playstation Now, and how active are the communities for the fighters it offers?

people actually use PS now?

It is on PC so I'm surprised some people don't use it for the opportunity to make some NEVER EVERs…not NEVER EVER.

I never thought it would catch on, the pricing for it when it first launched was vita memory card price levels of retarded and it seemed like you needed a really fucking good connection to make use of it

Holy shit man. Everyone else can seem to make a fighter these days except Capcom. I understand the bigger ones are most likely to have more glitches but they've been at this game for nearly a year now.

...

Haha! Capcom really can't do anything right…

lol

quality modding scene in full effect

Capcom/Blizzard used to be words of Quality but it's not the same today as almost no one who made it good is at the helm today. RIP Blizzard & Capcom of my youth.

there is nothing much more specific, dinosaur is an incredibly simple character

It isn't. The thing with MK armageddon is the fact it's a game made for the fans of the franchise. You have every character from every fighting game until that moment available to play with, and the conquest mode was a "Shaolin Monks Lite", and it also had that Motor Kombat, that was not bad but wasn't good enough if compared to Chess Kombat. And there was the character creation tool that was limited but was fun.
But they shouldn't have removed the fatalities for that custom fatality only. That was pure bullshit. And that Montaro, fuck.
In the fighting department, it was more shallow than Deception, but still had the fighting and weapons styles, and I always enjoyed how the weapons hit harder than punches and kicks.

I really thought the idea of stage fatalities working as the stage limits from games like VF or SC was really good and the best way to implement that feature to this date.

Yesterday I downloaded other PS2 MKs to see if they work without problems or not. I played them all like around 10 minutes and they work flawlessly, there isn't any problem with emulation at all. In case any of you was wondering it and want to play them

Armageddon, Deadly Alliance and Deception

It's good to know they are working well on emulators. By the way, the Wii version of Armageddon have an exclusive character. Khameleon. It's an interesting bonus.

Just play Mythology of Sub-Zero, it's closer to classic MK games, except it's basically beat em up with RPG elements, you actually can make some minor choices too. You need to learn abilities and combos, you can get some items and you have to complete basic missions. Honestly, I find Shaolin Monks boring, I liked it only when I played with my friend. Sub-Zero for me was comfy as fuck.

Fuck crossplay, give me good netcode so I could play it with my friends.

Fighting games are fine, only arcade market death can kill the genre. The same Virtua Fighter 5 is still active because of Japanese and good netcode.

There is like shitton of indie fighting games, most of devs just don't release their games outside of Japan because the west is playing Shit Fighter or MK and can't handle anything else, the west is really lucky to have some indie fighting games releases at all. Perhaps lack of dub in ArcSys games is also related to this problem, though maybe they just wanted to release their games earlier in the west, but I'm pretty sure they just don't think it's worth it, the same shit happened with Russian localization, companies don't bother with Russian dub in games anymore, they rarely touch even subtitles.

And yet we know about then. And you know why? Because the west care much more than Japan can accept. You go to Japan, and many players probably have never played anything west related. On the west, hell, I've seem people playing Touhou fighters, Nitroplus, Under Night… I've been playing Melty Blood from years, we care about games that were never released in here or at all, like that SNK prototype.
The west have much more curiosity than the east about games. But Japanese companies are indeed just lazy enough to care. If their games meet the local expectations, it's cool enough.

gematsu.com/2016/09/neo-geo-titles-including-fatal-fury-samurai-shodown-coming-ps4-arcade-archives
archive.is/YhaK5

Why is it always the same titles with SNK? They've got a huge library of Neo Geo games to work with but it always ends up with the same titles being the first ones out for ports

I want Antonov to impregnate me.

Antonov is a pure, he's not for sexual

Are you sure about that? he has a bunch of OTGs and corner resets. I get the feeling you've never played him.

mentioned guard points, at the very least.
But that doesn't explain why he is A tier and maxima, who has similar tools, is notably less competitive. If you can't answer that question, You don't have to reply.

There is like only small amount of people who do really care or know, just look at this thread, for fuck's sake, the west once considered fighting games dead because Capcom stopped caring about shit fighter for a while. There were people on this very board who predicted fighting games death because Capcom fucked up SF5 too, shouldn't even mention FGC which is a joke.

Why do you think ArcSys dropped PC market after their GGX, Reload and Isuka releases in the past? Or better, look at the state of indie fighting games, they're dead outside of Japan. Japanese are the only active group who still play indie games and they hardly need western fighting games which are trying to compete with SF, the only exception is KI, this one is quite popular in Japan despite it being tied to shitty platforms no one cares about. SG was quite popular too in Japan. Plus, the west can't really offer a lot of fighting games.

If the west really cared, all indie fighting games would be alive and people would talk more about all of them here, there is a reason why people want better online in fighting games, playerbase is very small in these games.

This is gay, user

I think you might be using Holla Forums crowd as a standard for gamers. And it's not. I think youtube is a better way to look at it, and you can see many people trying smaller games like Trajes Fatais, Combat Core, Pocket Rumble, Battle High. And there is one more thing: We are talking about the west, so europe and america, the continent not usa, it's a much bigger audience and market than Japan, so this is why it's important to release on west, it's a hundreds time bigger market.
By the way, those Guilty Gears that we see now on Steam and GOG were not released on PC by ArcSys, it was another company that ported the games.
So, just to make it clear, yes, most people are fans of the bi titles, but the west is huge and people do play other games, probably more than Japan for the simple reason that the public is much bigger.

I wish it had online play, such a broken game with weirdly designed movesets bordering on overpowered or worse than Alpha Dan. The true american kusoge.

Why? I still stands that the Mamahaha is the least of her problems. Athena can fuck you up with the reflector King of Dinosaurs can eat Sylvie's Climax like it was nothing, Xanadu can run throught fucking Raging Storm just so he can do and yet, everyone just complain about the bird instead of the safe pressure or at least try to overcome the spacing. Just watch the MadKof vod where he takes Nakoruru like the bird didn't even exist.

I have no idea. Verse boggles me even more.

I seriously hope they're saving the better games for a better port with good online. Fuck, even those Metal Slug ports on Steam would be better than those NeoGeoStation versions.

Skullgirls is by far the most sucessful but that's a good thing because more indie projects like Trajes Fatais, Pocket Rumble, those 3D arena fighters like Combat Core and Last Fight can be hopeful to achieve sucess. We don't need to be hostages of the same games over and over again if we don't like to play them.

It's just a matter of how "big" a game is. MKX and SFV are "neutered" on their changes from the previous iterations and sometimes, censoring, because they want to reach a bigger audience.
Right now SNK doesn't really care about that stuff and just want to make their game to suceed. Neo_G, Oda and co. just wants to make games.
Ishiwatari and Mori can be so self-centered on their own plot and respective waifus because they can rely on their target demographic to buy their games. But at least the games are getting better with each release (I'm saying Xrd as a series not GG as a whole)

Harada and Tekken7 I can see going the same way as Street Fighter and MKX as I saw him talking about making DLC because "people want to spend their money on it". And removing the wacky stuff from Tekken like Kuma, Roger and the plot to a more serious one so he can please a bigger demographic.

Well, SFV is just a big fuck up on that aspect because they change camera angles from Mika and Cammy but leave Chun-Li untouched(even the nipples) with DLC costumes selling on the sexual aspect but at the same time, they can't be used during tournaments. Notice that when a part of the DOA-community tried to do that, they received a huge backlash from the fans and non-fans alike.

This. They're fine for what they were at the time and Deception is the better one of the 3D era but like playing the 2D and 2.5D ones more with UMK3 being the best one.

I added Jump! Ultimate Stars because I had more fun with this game during college than Smash.

Well shit, now I realize why muh main still isn't in the game and I've lost hope of him even appearing, pic related

At first I was really happy with T7 coming for the pcs, but the game looks more and more weak.
Hell, I'm brazilian, if you are giving us Katarina don't remove Christie! Or Lei too, "Not Jackie Chan" was always cool in my book.
At least TTT 2 was damn good fun.

Of all the things Harada gives a fuck about it's this?

I wish that would get a PC release, I always preferred Tag over the regular Tekken games.

I agree, even though I didn't like the bound system from 6 at all, overall I had a lot of fun with TTT2

Sadly, it looks like so: archive.is/G22E9

I feel you bro. Having Lucky Chloe instead of Eddie or Christie is far from being the same. That vampire girl with a literal boob job might have more chances than other characters.

Not to mention that along with that robot dude Lucky Chloe is a shit tier character nobody plays with, a wasted character slot.

They could just not use them. And to hell with them, Kuma and all the beasts have been around since the second game.

Kuma has been there since the beginning. Besides, none of the animal characters were that good anyway so you barely even saw anyone play as them.

Ah, I never got around to playing the first one but still, I'd rather have them around and possibly made not shit at least.

Well Yoshimitsu has always been low tier and a mid tier character at best, but he's an iconic character. Just like the bears barely anyone plays with him seriously, but when I'm playing casually with friends who aren't good at the game I usually go for fun characters like him and Roger for example, or characters I don't see often when I play seriously or at local tourneys (though there's one Yoshi player in Dark Resurrection tournaments who's a beast).
God forbid I'd have to look at a f,N,d,d/f+2 or another consistent top tier when I'm just playing super casually, even though there's few characters in Tekken that I actually dislike.

This shows when it's time for Harada to step down. It's clear he is not in charge of the series anymore. Namco Bandai probably have him by the balls about what should and should not be in the game, and he have no way but to comply.
While I enjoyed the new female boss, hell, I love female bosses and that's one of the reasons to why I love TTT so much, this is a big step back in the series.
By the way, fuck Gouki, if they wanted to test the waters of TxSF so much they could just repeat what they did with TTT 2 in that Tekken Hybrid and launch a very small demo with two stages and four characters.

Hey when you import a jap PS4 game, can you go online with your western PSN account like you could with the PS3 or do you have to make a jap account and buy a jap PS+ subscription?

That has more to do with the fact that there are no western fighting games worth playing than anything.

Yeah, SF V have been a fantastic journey so far.

Found a large load of artbook scans. Not the optimal quality but good enough to quench curiosity.
Just don't venture outside the tag because, while I haven't seen anything weird, it is uncharted fujoshi waters.

miauneko.tumblr.com/tagged/kof-xiv-artbook

I actually think concept art is neat, and I REALLY like it when a game lets you look through concept art, so I'm gonna thank you and give this a look through when I get home

As long as you have one PS+ account on your console, every other one can play online. Now region lock and online region lock I think depends on the game.

Thanks user. I bought the Premium Edition but it's still at my friend's house because importing from the USA to Brazil would cost me a car.
Was Alice designed by Hiroaki?

there's nothing inherently complicated about using OTGs or using corner resets okay

did you start with SF4 where this is all shit shattering tech for you?

Goro is the better grappler

durrr

I love Antonov's expressions

then why is he not above dinosaur?
Also, that is not what I was asking. I'm wondering why he's put so high on the tier list what does he have that goro and maxima don't? Are you just going to shitpost and attempt to look like you know what you are talking about, or are you actually going to tell me? again. If you don't actually know what makes him better, you don't have to answer me. I don't see why you don't understand my confusion in regard to Dinosaur being good.

I sure hope Touhou Shinpiroku - Urban Legend in Limbo. isn't region locked then.

He gets extra tier points for being a Dinosaur.

because that jap doesn't know what he's talking about

the best grappler is goro, do sum research

How do i get gud in Smash?

i never managed to find out if it was a boy or a girl

By playing this instead

>"I am the King of the Gerudo!"

I am Kuma main. I feel your pain, and I'm going to be a salty bitch if Kuma isn't in FR, but they add a shitty vampire slut no one out of weeabos liked in Revolution (she was trash-tier).

Despite the "serious roster," Tekken 7 has…fucking Chloe, some Phillipine tranny, a Colombian whore, a Rule 63 Raven (wtf?!), and a shitty red robot.

A British Bear player got to top 5 in a Vanilla Tekken 5 tourney many years ago, and there are some really great Bear players in Japan and Korea. Don't look at the US scene because it's such a pathetic joke that only uses top-tiers and Mishimas.

The only shit-tiers who got little or no attention were Zafina (Shitty Voldo with Arabic tits, and a terrible move list), all of the extra dlc characters from Tag 2, Chloe, and Gigas.

Harada was always a hack. Tekken 4 and 6 were really bad, and Tag 2 was bloated. He got very lucky with Tekken 5.

MY DICK

Anyone else notice all the FGC people that hate Trump also defend SFV?

What if you hate Trump, and also hate SFV? Or you hate Trump, Hilary, & SFV (all three have one thing in common: they're horrible)?

I think it's because all the "SNK will make fighting games great again" memes/jokes people started making.

user it's impossible to be both retarded and have common sense.
Kill yourself you lukewarm trash.

I know you're not supposed to take comic books let alone any video game-based comic book seriously, but Jesus fucking Christ this is some really shitty art.

All three are horrible, fam.

You first, bitch.

if i wanted my cumback id talk to ur mom tbh

Trump is the only candidate that really defies the establishment in ages

But it's always hilarious even you people can't deny how terrible Hillary is

But I know she's horrible like SFV and Trump. I'm still voting for somebody, you faggot.

...

Do I get a pass if i like both Trump and SFV?

Now that I think about, all SNK has to do is hotfix K- and Nakoruru into real characters and then the game would be pretty good

but then again, I'd love to see Athena/Robert/Iori actually get nerfs, no reason to not pick any of these characters, I can't think of a single bad matchup unless it's vs K/Nako

I would not call him a hack, since he helped shape Tekken from day one. The thing is, he was a real goddamn gentleman with Tekken Tag Tournament 2.
Why I say that? Think about it. In the PS3 era he and his team released a game with:
Now let that sink in, Tekken Tag Tournament 2 had no costumes or characters as DLC while pretty much every single big contender in the market had.
I would agree that the code to unlock those characters, that worked as a proof of buying was bullshit, but the Wii U version didn't had that at least.
Now, compare how MK 9, SF IV and SC V were treating their fans at the time.
I would say that TTT2 was the pinnacle of the series for the fans, everyone was there, and it was fun. T7 looks more like the other BN games, with DLC and more. I think he lost plenty of power after SFxT too probably.

Never really looked at it like this before user

...

I can accept this answer

I can also accept this answer, As I genuinely think Goro is better, hence my confusion.

user if you don't know what you're talking about don't get into arguments.

Good thing I know what I'm talking about otherwise I wouldn't argue about it

Sure thing user.

I know someone who couldn't think Hillary is a bigoted liar even if she said something like "All niggers need to be shot into the sky, which is green!"

I knew one too. Turned out to be here illegally. Go figure.

Oh, don't tell me you're voting that sperg Johnson that gets angry at the word immigrant, at least go Stein and undermine Hillary

Trump is the only one to bring real right wing ideas in ages, things that the bushes and even reagan didn't proposed or just pretended to care.

About MK, I agree with the models. They are better than MK X in general. But gameplay? How?

Now, to it's detriment, it had DLC, the only really complete version is the one for the Vita, and the online wasn't fantastic. But it I find it much better than SF IV as a game. And it also had a really complete versions, that didn't add more DLC afterwards. And I must say x-rays would be great brutalities, I can't understand why they didn't go that way.

TRIPS OF TRUTH

Just as a heads up I gave up on the kof03 mod. not for lack of trying mind you. I was talking to as many romhackers as I could find and many had no idea how any of the previous hacks were made nor could forward me anywhere at all. the only thing I could figure out how to do was change sprite colors and backgrounds (even though it had this annoying shrinking to whatever you used no matter the size). but I couldnt figure out how to change anything mechanical without the game breaking. And not to mention all the supposed "Devkits" don't work at all. if anybody was able to get them to work tell me because i couldn't figure it out for the life of me

Dial-a-combo, that's why

I don't know how I should feel about this.

at least its not funko pop

That's true, also I'm glad it isn't Play Arts Kai shit. I still have nightmares from their street fighter line

No. You should be ashamed of yourself for liking SFV.

VF did a better job with customization. Tag 2 is very limited because you can't change things like Kuma's fur color like you could in 5 and 6.

Customization in Tag 2 and even 7 were very limited. It's sort of understandable in Tag 2, but not in 7.

Problem is a couple of them were shit-tier dlc you really didn't need, and they almost never saw any tourney action (Michelle, Angel, Miharu). They were never added to the arcade version like KoF XIII (SNK added the dlc roster to the arcade version, even tweaking the game around them).

Lol, Wii U version.

He did a great job with Tag 2 despite it was bloated as fuck. It's a shame Tekken 7 is a real hit and miss bag right now even in Japan and Korea. Tag 2 is how you handle fighting game dlc. It's a shame that Tag 2 was ignored over that piece of trash game SFxT (to be fair, Tekken has a steep learning curve).

Harada really dropped the ball with Tekken 7 imo.

No, because I'm not wasting a vote on a douche.

I really think Udon needs to go out of business. Their artists are so bad.

Nendo Kyo? When's IORI?

Why are there schoolgirl fighters?

Because I want to put my dick in them. What a stupid question.

If you're interested in amateur fightan made by people in their spare time, check this one out

I'm not American so I don't know or follow their scene, I usually look at the Korean and Japanese scenes since they use a more wide variety of characters like it's the case here and their matches are easiest to find on the internet, no matter which game and they manage to make almost every match watchable, even if it's just between high tiers.

I am a female with a vagina

What is it with indie fighters and crap announcers?
I do hope he manages to work with another engine over time. It's quite clear he's artist first and coder second though.

I want to play as the bong skeleton

you can't trick me user.

I'm a loli btw

That Kuuga looks pretty nice though.

What's with those models? They look really weird. Also nice Tekken hitsounds.
Okay that's actually interesting.

I've posted some of his videos before, but no one really cared at the time. I think he might have something good at the end. I looks interesting.

What are some good PS1 fighting games? I found a PS1 in my area for 15 bucks with all the hookups and 1 controller. I'm considering getting one, and I'd like to know if there's any fighters worth playing.

Not 2D ones

Pick related and tekken are good, but I can't really recommend many other PS1 fighters because they're usually the worst versions of the game.

(witnessed)
You're better off downloading MAME and playing the superior versions of PSX fightans, otherwise go for Tekken 3, Rival Schools, Tobal 2, Bushido Blade, Soul Blade (or Soul Edge, forgot which is the Japanese and which is the international title) and Bloody Roar 2 too. As said 2D fightans are shit on PSX, but if you really insist try out JJBA: Heritage for the Future and SF Alpha 2 and 3.

That reminds me, my Virtua Fighter figures came in the mail today.

Virtua Fighter 6 when sega?
Virtua Fighter 5 was released 10 years ago

To be honest, I think we are better with the old games.
I mean, most of these companies nowadays just can't do something good because the people working in there are just that bad.
I know SEGA still have people that know how to make good stuff, like the Yakuza games, but these companies just became so lazy.
But I would love to see VF on PCs again. The first time I played a game in the series was VF2 on a PC a long time ago.

I get what you're saying, but I like the series so much I can't help to wish for a new game despite the worry that it would be shit.

But PC ports of VF5:FS (with Quest Mode added back in) and VF2 HD would be a safer/satisfying course for sega to take.

I'm growing impatient Holla Forums fucking how long until KoF14 on PC?

It took 22 months for KoF 13 to get a PC version, so I assume either around the same time or less since they know there is a big PC audience for the game now.

Pray is doesn't end up with devuno.

So what do we do if KoF XIV comes with Denuvo?

Warn SNK beforehand, first.

Bloody Roar 2
Bushido Blade
Bushido Blade 2
Critical Blow
Fighters Impact
Kensei Sacred Fist
Rival Schools
Slap Happy Rhythm Busters
Soul Blade
Star Gladiator
Street Fighter EX 2 Plus
Tekken 2
Tekken 3
Tobal 2 with English patch
Vs. (basically a reskinned Fighters Impact)

If you want something expiremental and different then check out Destrega and Evil Zone.

Warn them before it happens, they've been actually listening to their customers so there is a good chance they won't do it if the fans voice concerns.

and if it still happens I plan of writing SNK telling them I won't support any of their titles with Denuvo and include all their PC ports I've bought to support them. Then I'll go back to playing the PS4 version until my PS+ sub runs out in 3 years, then just play 98UM/02UM and pray they don't fuck up the next game

I would like a new VF as well but how would you improve it? I think this is the problem that Sega is facing right now, much like how Nintendo isn't making a new F-Zero game because GX was basically perfection. Or would you just be satisfied with slick new grafix and two new characters?

Yeah pretty much, just polish what they left off with VF5:FS, throw in a few new characters, bring back quest mode and maybe throw in a new game mode.

Only thing I can really think of that needs improving is a better tutorial for casuals.

That picture makes me think mian is sticking her face in someones butt

steamcommunity.com/games/310950/announcements/detail/834680277980885193

Lol

i think it took like 3 years didn't it? unless you count the emulated version as a release

It took 22 months from the console release. 39 if you go by Arcade release.

How is EF-12? It is and indie 3D fighting game engine?

(dubs of truth)
That'd be swell, but honestly if they just decided to port FS in the state it's in I'd still cream my pants.

It's a 3D fighting game engine in the same sense that MUGEN is one, but not as a casual fun thing to dick around with after adding Goku and Akuma to fight each other with if that makes sense. Someone would have to build a version that operates like MUGEN if we want to see the same dumb bullshit that MUGEN has.

I still have to try it, but looks promising.

There is also the Universal Fighting Engine for unity.

Release VF5 on pc with HD 4k graphics and add a female elf character. haha.

SF Virus

There is no reason for them to implement Denuvo, plus they're quite small for that. They will use Steamworks just like ArcSys and Crapcom which is the most retarded and Jewish company. Besides, multiplayer is a good protection already, rarely anyone play fighting games offline. It would be a waste of money for SNK and they'd rather license GGPO.

If I'm Australian and already have an extremely shitty connection, is there another fightan game I can play other than ShitFlingerV?

For some reason I just can't get into SFV but it seems like all I can do is wait for Tekken 7, which is pretty much what I'm already doing.

Any Fightcade game
Neo Turf Masters if your connection is bad enough.

Uninstall SFV please

Alright, thanks user.

Last experience I had with fightcade was pretty bad, but we both had really, really shitty connections at the time so it might be different now.

Are there any popular games aside from 3rd Strike like ages ago?

Absolutely disgusting.

You'd be surprised how many stupid indie devs end up using it and don't make enough profit to pay back the 10K pricetag for denuvo
Please tell that to Namco Bandia so they can stop using it.

...

Don't worry, they'll have someone in the next sports team ;_;

never ever

Simply amazing, to think this update could have began to turn the game around

Only a change in leadership and a total overhaul could fix it.
They might even have to make Super Street Fighter V.

man the shills barely even play the games they're shilling.

Chill, man. VF players can't take a joke.
>>>/fighters/2654

How about VF5 having a DoA/KOF/Tekken character guest-star?

No.

I'd actually like it, what I'd like the most is if they added characters who perform the same martial art and then the two characters would either have kind of a friendly rivalry like they did it with Kokoro and Akira.

I just ask for one thing: do not add a character that might eclipse Vanessa Lewis' position as the indisputable queen of the series.

Yeah, was thinking the same thing yesterday

Fuck that, capcom just needs to give up and get Arika to make Street Fighter EX 4 and pay SNK make SNK vs Capcom Chaos 2

I'd be cool with any character as long as they fit. Personally I would rather get a Fatal Fury guest-star since I've always wanted Fatal Fury vs Virtua Fighter since I was a kid.

That's not Aoi Umenokoji

SF Zero EX 4th Strike!

And has VF5 with a SF or Final Fight character guest star!

That just made me think of a SF EX game with parrying.

=ONLINE DEMO VERSION DOA5 CORE FIGHTERS COMING TO STEAM==

Still no lobbies. Still no way to play your friends. Still missing content

People could not stop repeating the lie that the PC version was the PS3 version because it lacked such and such. It's the arcade version, and arcade machines are basically PCs for the unenlightened, making it the best looking version of the game available at home. But yes, don't buy the game, you would have to be a moron to buy anything by post-Itagaki Team Ninja.

ONLINE DEMO VERSION DOA5 CORE FIGHTERS COMING TO STEAM

Typod above.

Should I give a fuck if I already have LR?

It will introduce a bunch of potential opponents for their online system out of the 1990's, so it's a win-win for people who have and haven't bought the game in some ways.

What if I don't give a fuck about the online portion of the game because I only play offline against friends and at local tourneys?

Don't give up user. Maybe hacking wasn't the best idea but there are engines to create a fighting game like MUGEN (KOF Wing was made on it) and that Unity one.

I think you're not familiar with Reptile, Sheeva and some others.to say everyone was playable on that story mode

MK9 uses the same string-type combos as Tekken and other 3D fighters.

Beast Wars Transmetals
It's not good but I loved Beast Wars as a kid. The BW2 japanese Gameboy game was better

There's going to be a Mai one too but damn, those nendos are expensive.

I'm not well versed in Virtua Fighter but I remember the community complaining they casualized the game in 5 compared to 4 but it didn't really change the "VF is hard" meme so there's room to tweak some things at least. I just hope they don't put supers and comeback mechanics like the latest Tekken and SoulCalibur.

Well, you can already customize characters. And it wouldn't be the weirdest thing to happen in the lore

You know it was supposed to be one in the Sports Team (I think after '94) but never made it.

Well, the most famous ones are a little too crazy to be in VF. So maybe Claw Iori, Vanessa, Blue Mary, Kim, Ralf, Clark, Goro Daimon and others "normal" characters.

neat
Well, maybe the next time.
Also, DOA5LR is the best DOA game by far since 2. Itagaki cared more about his "daughters" than making a good game in 3 and 4.

...

GGxrd has a reasonably active online presence in aus.

Nice.

nichegamer.com/2016/09/30/buxom-2d-fighter-nitroplus-blasterz-heads-to-pc-winter-2016/

Here comes the waifu fighter!

It was pretty fun from what I have tried of it, but it has that usual examu thing where you don't want to be seen playing it/nobody wants to pick it up because they don't want to be seen playing it.

I'm a nerd so no problem showing my power level.

I need to play some of the VN where those characters come from.

I really want to play as Ein.

who /hftf/ here?
I just want a good excuse to post this webm of the new OP.

I am

Sorry, I just can't stand modern anime.

The FGC would probably be better if they weren't afraid of crap like that.

Good luck.

Bit of a one trick pony but I'm starting to see why JP/CH think Luong is upper tier. Need to start spamming this shit even harder. :^)

mmcafe.com/nico.html#http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm29729551

Everyone can be upper tier if you believe and try hard enough.

That's what I tell myself as I continue to main Billy/Sylvie/Maxima

found the woman.

the moves are actually kind of legit MA moves.

notbad,jpg

So how many of you joined the steam group but aren't entering any events for it?
Answer honestly now.

Now there's a life of suffering.
Mentally breaking the opponent by hitting him about 50 times with bii-biiri-bii in a match must make up for it though.

...

isn't it funny how people just seems to believe they are the "FGC"

FGC is but a joke, every nigger around the corner is it's spokesman and the real people making the big scene are only sellouts looking for the best ways to make profit.

That is also a good way to spot a woman

Look how Anita made all that shitshow so she could prove she was a "gamer" and all the other women making a huge deal about being "gamergirls" and also that post mentioning the "FGC" all the time

They think shit is some kind of secret club and want to shoehorn themselves in

The popularization of the FGC shtick also coincide with the mass of smash autists wanting to fit in, the recent boom of SJWs in fighting game sites, and even in SFV itself

This. The game looks fun but I fucking hate that anime look, is so bland and boring

Is UNDER NIGHT IN-BIRTH Exe:Late good?

I'm still buttmad about all the non-N+ characters in this. Fucking Saber.

You should probably stop playing video games if you really care that much about what people think of you.

Indeed, you could not play with most of the evil guys in MK 9 story, but the number of stories was much bigger than X and they gave a good amount of exposition even for the non-playable characters. It's sad Skarlet was not present on story mode though.

Fate/Zero was a collaboration between Type-Moon and Nitroplus. That's why she's there.

How do I play May? I don't really understand how to do her oki, what are the most basic setups I should learn first?

It's actually pretty good.

Who can cosplay Luong the best?

For her Oki it's good to pressure first with just releasing dolphins on them on wakeup to force them to block and you can run up to keep pressure. After you've conditioned them to respect the pressure you can mix it up with overhead into release P dolphin or dash up lowf. A recent one I like is 2D into S dolphin then YRC IAD and you can mixup by 2H in the air either infront or behind while releasing the Dolphin so you land on it either side as it's summoned basically inside them then you can air dash into them after riding the dolphin hit. if you're up close you can also throw out beachball, YRC, sjc and bounce on the ball either infront or behind. With May it's fine to hang back too if you just want to get beachball out and summon a dolphin since you can zone alright and play footsies, getaway very easily with a K dolphin to just glide over to the other side of the screen.

I'm by no means an expert though, when I get flustered I just start spamming horizontal dolphin dive then throw out a vertical one when they're blocking.

Even SRK's typical shit posters are having a hard time defending SFV at this point. It's hard to defend a company knowing they intentionally tried to install Malware and rootkits into the game, getting caught red-handed.

The fgc is a shit-hole that contradicts itself (Its almost as bad as Moba communities). It wants to be recognized as an esport, yet it won't clean up it's act to be taken seriously out of some shit-hole parts of California (e.g. not acting like pot-smoking, manchildren-thugs over shitty fighting games).

Look at Third Strike's scene, which was pretty bad with it's elite autism in the past. The scene pushed people away because players were being ass-holes over characters (you would get shit on if you picked a top-tier like Chun, Yun, and Ken, or a shit-tier like Hugo and Twelve) let alone the wrong super art (e.g. Picking Ryu's Denjin Fireball even if you know what you're doing). 3S players asked Capcom for an updated port to keep the scene alive, but once Capcom made 3SO, they went back to their elitist bullshit, killing 3S's scene…again. When I went to an event for Third Strike Online, I wanted to slap half of the people because they were being autistic dicks over Third Strike.

Honestly, the fgc acts like it's a secret club most of the time. 3D fighters like Soul Calibur had communities that refused to share frame data with anyone because the "pros" don't want to lose that precious weed money (WC Maxi hogged SC2 frame data to himself, only giving it to people who sucked his dick in his clique). Shit like that really put a dent in 3D fighting game scenes. Besides that, The West Coast scene doesn't take the East Coast seriously (Unlike the West, 98% of the East doesn't give a fuck about fighting games, knowing a career based on gaming alone is flat out retarded).

Smash doesn't need the fgc, and the scene didn't give a fuck after that slimy piece of shit Mr. Wizard banned Smash from Evo. It's just Smash generates money for sleazy TOs like Mr. Wizard and Jebailey because they know the weeabo otakus and manchildren thugs who play games like SFV and BlazBlue don't have a lot of money. Sure, they "threaten" Smash players when they act like Rapefugees in events (try to grope and rape women around them, harass cosplayers with or without rape, ruin certain games because they can't wait for their shitty games to come up, shit in a party pool during a tourney, etc.), but TOs aren't going to risk losing the money Smash autists make for them by getting rid of the scene for ruining one tourney after another even though the fgc is getting sick of sharing events with Smash players.

SJWs just started to reach fighting games, but the only ones they have control over are Ed Boon (because DC and WB employed Sjws, and Boon is working with WB Games) and Capcom (It wants to be in esports).

Are there any more Mained/Expected/Got templates like this and the Hol Horse one?

Is that Okita Anri? I'm gonna spend all my Yakuza 6 time with her. I'm a sad little man.

On that note and to answer the question, I'd wager any leggy JAV ~ara could pull the trick. I'm biased towards Nozomi Sankihon - tall, big ass, huge rack, the works.

Side note, starting to do a wee bit better on the game. Beginning to learn how to reign myself in when I've got the life lead and finally managed to land my pathetically easy BNB once.
Still can't deal with scrub tactics though. Fireballs, jump C+D spam etc still get the best of me.

It was published by them, but she's still a TM character. The least they could have done is have her as a support instead of sidelining actual N+ characters for her. Same with the other characters too.

Saber probably increases overall sales.

Frankly I'm super exited for the game for Saya alone.

They should make a sequel/expansion and add any of the Thunderbolt Fantasy characters and Super Pochaco.

It's definitely good and pretty unique. It's like MvC3 where characters have truck size hitboxes for some moves and can even combo off them if you have meter or a certain buff.

While the game is combo heavy like many anime fighters, this game barely has an airdash feature. You get the ability Assault Jump which makes you leap forward and you can do so in the air. I believe only one character has an airdash and another has an aerial teleport. Anyway this game is highly benefits defensive and explosive playstyles.

There is a meter that both players share (or in this case, fight over) that increases rapidly when blocking and fills slowly when attacking called GRD. When you have the most GRD after a certain period of time, you obtain Vorpal. It's a buff that gives the player more attack power. You can then sacrifice your Vorpal and convert GRD into actual meter for your supers. This is called Chain Shift which can be used to extend combos or make attacks safe like a YRC from Guilty Gear.

After HDR, Capcom USA is afraid to try to rebalance cos the elitists got used to the bugs/glitches/unfairness to the point of defending it.

Related, what Mike Z might do;
mikezsez.blogspot.com.au/2015/12/what-id-change-for-third-strike-upper-3s.html

yes, it's Anri; apparently she's half-english. Nozomi S looks good but my heart belongs to Azusa Nasagawa.

I'm not in the USA.

There are some great oki videos on YouTube for may. Her oki is good and you need to get good at it to play well as her.

2k 2s 2d 4-6s to get knockdown, follow up with a short dash and safe blocking jump into air s, repeat if they block/don't block, punish if they DP and you block.

Mid screen you can summon ball on knockdown, then rc and jump on top of the ball to slam it down on your opponent, this makes them bounce and you can air hs into an air combo.

Or summon a dolphin on knockdown, and ride it after an overhead 6k, or ride it after doing the 2k 2s 2d 4-6s combo mentioned above, with riding the dolphin instead of a safe jump. Remember to dash after your dolphin ride hits so you can continue pressure.

May has the best range throws, and her hs is quick in close range, and useful in the air as well, so use it.

You can play a decent zoning game with May if you use her balls and aquatic sea life well, especially against someone like Pot, Sol, Sin, Johnny. Anyone that might struggle to get in, or will focus on dashing to close the gap. Maintain a distance and summon like crazy, mixing it up and using rc if you get in trouble. If they dash in you can do the horizontal dolphin to push them back, if they block then that's even better and you can run in for an overhead kiss, or if they are crouch blocking you can choose 6hs fully charged into rc and then dust combo, or just a dust combo. To prevent easy jump ins on you, you need to mix up your dolphin and ball types.

I tend to aim for mid screen and cross over oki, rather than corner oki, as I'm not that good at it, and tend to get myself into the corner just as often. May also struggles to get out of the corner outside of universal mechanics.

May has high jumps, but bad anti air, so it's often best to win in the air rather than rely on ground to air.

She has good damage, but you will need to practice working on riding dolphins and the timing of your summoning if you want to get that big damage out. She also has some good pokes with 5s and 5k that you can use to keep distance for zoning quite well.

Try not to rely on the 4-6s/hs horizontal dolphin too much by itself, as it loses to most things and can be unsafe on block. If you do use it outside of a finisher, try to make it the s version, as it's quicker and safer, although the hs is good for moving around the stage.

Neither am I, or a Majority of the people who compete in it

Oh.

Seems Luong's game plan revolves around Max cancels. Boy, did I pick the wrong character to git gud with…

Might not be of any use but to the user who asked for Verse stuff, the channel has a pretty extensive combo video for him.

If you're in GA drop by AWA, they have a 3S and CvS2 cab up, jojo, Blitzkamf, SCII and then some console shit.

Available is chaos code, Jojo ASB, Revelator, CF, SFV, Marvel 2 and 3, and then pokken/smash

just got back from yesterday, some decent players on 3S and CvS

HDR was atrocious, and full of really bad ideas (fake fireball for Ryu, leaving Akuma intact). This is why you don't let someone like Sirlin touch games.

I read that article Mike Z made. I laughed my ass at his shitty ideas knowing how many changes he made to Skullgirls, making the game shittier with each change,

Mah nigga

So do you think SNK will announce their next game before or after they do a KoF XIV PC port?

Any chance of a new Soul Calibur?
Weapon-based fightan are my thing.

Slim to none despite teases. If anything, expect a shitty console game while Namco exploits and milks the fuck out of the fighting game community with the new Soul Calibur.

Is Tekken Tag Tournament 2 on Wii U worth buying?

If you have a PS3 or even 360, no.

Nobody plays it but it has the most features, especially for local casual play.

You, sir, have phenomenal taste in fightan mains.

yeah mike z's 3s changelog is fucking retarded

bafael endorsing it as "genius" made me think a lot less of him

you have alright taste.

All of SRK's writers are just as pathetic as Mike Z in their own little way. One of them has to bring up his shitty drumming skills no one cares about.

SRK is bad, but still nowhere near Eventscrub bad.

How bad is eventhubs bad? I remember that they had an article a while back claiming that it didn't matter that Daigo was "washed up." pic semi-related.

One pointless Maximillian article after another followed by shitty opinions from the writers and contributors. At least you can fuck with SRK's shit posters and call out the writers in the comment section without a ban (you'll get a pending if you piss the writers that are potential sjws).

Reminds me of the time someone here explained to SRK in the comment section of a Skullgirls article why Skullgirls was a poorly designed fighting game.

anyone could do that

Really you don't need to say anything else.
I wonder how Indivisible will turn out.

Given that most of the devs are SJW's, and they're using the "we have shovel knight" excuse as a way of selling the game, it's gonna be shit.

What is wrong with it?

I'm just reading through it now and none of the changes seem too egregious, beyond maybe some of the better characters getting nerfed too hard. Then again, I'm not informed when it comes to 3S, so what do I know?

Skullgirls is pretty flawed, but it definitely came a long fucking way since launch.

I'm honestly pretty glad for it that it is starting to sort of get a scene going, small as it is.

It was shilled to hell and back, along with waifufags. You don't see much other indie fighters getting any recognition at all.

most of kike z's changes are inconsequential buffs/nerfs/"bug fixes" that show he doesn't understand the game or what any of the characters need

the only change i thought was logical was halfing meter gain after the first whiff

I mean, what else is there in terms of recent indie fighters?

Like, off the top of my head I can think of Yatagarasu, which got limited support post-release or something, from what I have heard.

Like, beyond that there is, what, Vanguard Princess, which has an even worse problem with panty fighter waifu shit than Skullgirls along with being a Fighter Maker game, meaning that rebinding your control is funky for a lot of devices and that the game requires an external program to actually play online.

Beyond those, what else is there?

Making a lot of normals not negative on hit wasn't logical?

Again, I am not intimate with real 3S play at all, so what do I know, but that and a lot of the other ones seem at least fairly reasonable from where I am standing.

I admit I bought skullgirls because of the girls and that the gameplay looked ok. Filia best girl though

What's wrong with denuvo?

why not just remove parry?

OK, I'm quite unfamiliar with the terminology, so, how a "negative normal" works?

Question on piano'ing, never really played mash characters often, maybe chun in TvC/Marvel but that was it

Which is more efficient

LMHLMH

or

LMHMHL

It seems like either works but I'm certainf LMHML would work faster but in SFIV I kept getting overlapping inputs for EX mash

Basically, its frame data.

If you hit someone and you both regain control of your characters (recover) at the exact same time, the move would be 0.

If you hit someone with a move, and you recover 2 frames before them, you have +2 frames of frame advantage. Inversely, if you hit someone with a move and you recover 2 frames before them, you have a negative frame disadvantage.

Now, things have different advantages and disadvantages on hit and block, so if you hit with a move you can be left with a few frames of advantage to reward you for getting a hit, but if your move gets blocked, the enemy can recover faster and leave you negative and gives your opponent a chance to act before you.

I don't really get how that would in particular would invalidate parries.

I personally don't see why a move that you successfully hit with should leave you at a disadvantage, beyond shit like taunts. I can get leaving you at neutral, but situations where can get punished for hitting with a move just doesn't sound right to me.

much like kike z you definitely sound like you've never played 3s for more than 5 minutes

although to be fair to the kike, he did play makoto, so it figures he wouldn't actually know the game much

Like I've been saying, I barely know anything about 3S beyond me fucking around with a few of my friends who are similarly unfamiliar with it.

That said, could you at least elaborate?

Why does LTG say charge characters are 'low IQ'?

you down back and do nothing and then react with 50% damage I guess

What's wrong with makoto?

He insists that players who use charge characters are just "reacting off his brain."
