Fighting Game General: Tell me about Mature! Why does she wear the mask? Edition

How about you engage in polite conversation with me in a productive manner?

Is there a way to mass replace palletes in 3rd strike on ggpo? There's a lot of editors but those take time for single characters and most databases don't work

also I beat the game with Alex yet i can't play as the extended pallets. is this a console only option?

There might be a rom hack out there with more palettes, all the new ones were DLC for the 360/ps3 version

sadly there is no rom hack that isn't full of neon lolz skins, you have to do it yourself if you want more subdued palettes. I spent around 2 hours making one for alex but I want to completely redo all the palletes for Alex, Dudley, and Q, but not at the cost of 40 hours

She is a big girl

For you

I just finished watching the first episode of KoF Destiny. It was surprisingly good outside of the lip-sinking being off and a few rough animations.
Also;
Confirmed for KoF XV

As for the other colors, are you sure the rom is saving when you complete the game?, as in does it keep your high score/records when you close it down?

So, is pirating "THE KING OF FIGHTERS XIV" worth it or it have nothing to offer in story/solo mode?

The patch'd be at the same fucking day as consoles and the only reason it'll be delayed a day is because there's some complications. They even announce the patch will happen a bit earlier after their last patch disrupted some sorta PC tournament which is neat. That's a huge improvement after the After Story B patch that came out of nowhere and was delayed by more than a week.

It's got all the basic essentials in terms of single player content but that's it. It's unique game mode "party vs" is online only.

it's a fighting game, if you have friends nearby then you're able to enjoy the game more than others

Sounds like a lesbian sex position.
Lip-synching?

PC~ the game system of freedom

yeah my bad. I'm still in my early morning haze, I'll probably do fuck ups like that until lunch

What's your fave fg company?

Post more delicious big girls (DBG).

Play UNIEL, it's a good game.

If you're a poorfag with no PS4, you can play it on Steam with me, please! I need people to play with! ; - ;

Anyone learning/practising new characters in their game of choice?

I decided to pick up Ms Fortune. I'm loving her ability to keep the pressure on and to keep your opponent guessing with her rekkas (overhead? low? grab?). I haven't even started to try headless yet, i'm just working on some BnB for now.

The cat puns are starting to grow on me too.

Don't be delusional, user.
The game still has the very same problems it had before, In fact, most of the problems were there in the beta.
It just became more noticeable because people spent more time with the game for it to develop and the new characters make it more evident.
The normal were always stubby and the footsies were crap, people just weren't exploiting the meta of input delay by factoring the opponent's inability to react to things when calculating their actions yet. The lack of variety made optimal play to form and it's boring and repetitive.

Started it up again so I'm cycling through all the characters. Use to main Jeffry but now I'm leaning towards Brad or Eileen.
Mika combo practicing all day every day, you get so much fucking bonus damage for doing timed hits. it's nuts
Throwing Tung into my team with Sylvie and Maxima while putting Ryo on pocket duty. Gotta put in a lot of work since I haven't used Tung since KoF XI

Look Giga Dev. You have nothing to show for this game but models and dreams, and I've been lurking these threads for almost a year and have never seen anything more than one or two screenshots in unity (I would assume) for this game you've been talking about. I'm sure everybody in this thread has an idea for a fighting game they like to make but you be more productive if you actually made something that people could get their hands on, then just come in here telling people what you'd like to put in.

A playable Alpha with one to two characters would go a long way to getting people to care about your product. As it stands you're worse than yandere simulator guy because at least he have something to show for all of his posting on this site.

Am i the only one that always picks the basic color in every game?

Agreed, everyone has dreams. However sometimes one isn't able to make their dreams into a full fledged product. Gigadev needs to give a project update so people know it's not just a dream.

That's how butterface camgirls make money.

I love it when somethings bad when something else bad happens they claim the previous bad thing was good, it's like clockwork.

TBH man just focus on making a functioning game first before you try and get cute reinventing the wheel.

To bad the patch is almost literally nothing tier.
Pic related.

No, there are 7 Billion people on the planet and only you pick default colours.

When's Sagat? SFV is dead to me…

I started leaning towards Sarah last time I played. When I played 1 and 2 I played Kage (poorly), and when I picked up FS initially I wanted to learn Shun Di but I might be better off sticking to a more "normal" character

Using it to teach a friend some fightans basics before moving on to better games, and now I'm playing Double/Valentine where I was playing Filia/Ms Fortune before. I'm hoping I can convince them to move to GG, but might end up playing KoF instead, which would be fine as well.

I'm now rotating through the cast to get a better idea of how I can mappa and dandy the fuck out of them and I think I might play Sol and Kum a bit more

Do you really want to see Sagat in SFV? What did the poor fella do to you?

Previous thread: archive.is/tnkOc
You should've posted a new thread link in the last thread OP

SFV should be dead to you, user.

Why is this allowed?

What if I think the skintight turtleneck is more erotic than the shirtless one? It'd be even better if the jacket was just around her waist or something too.

...

You got it

kayke sugoi

If I'd ever played ASB I probably would have picked Bucciarati, but I don't actually know how anyone in that game plays.

Do you already have a working engine with basic stuff? I mean, it would be easier to decide upon more specific stuff when you actual test it. Kinda like the old MUGEN days where people tested everything on Kung Fu Man and then they went to create an actual character.

I mean, like that "modeler problem" you had earlier, you could have used those months to focused on developing the base for the game.

Also, i preffer a button or direction+button for jump like in DOA.

I do already have a working engine, it's just things are slow to take off because I pay people by the hour and there's only so many hours I can afford.

Not only that but we needed to redo all the animations after an issue with the rigs made all our old stuff unusable, and our old animator went on vacation (which meant I had to find a new guy) so we're still getting that done.

It's basically all ready to go, we just need animations and it's taking longer than I'd like.

You don't have a generic model you could use for the purposes of testing things? Even having geometric shapes so you can test out movement options.

What are you contributing to this project?

The movements required are very specific and the generic model in UE4 doesn't lend itself well to them. With the effort required to do specific animations it'd be time and money better spent making animations with our existing character meshes.

I have financial needs as well so I have to plan carefully.

Excuse me, but what the fuck is this feminist shit with gigantic fat "strong" womyn? Are you trying to make ultraman with female protagonist? Your game is shit just by definition of your fetishist cuckery.

Strong big girls feed my boner so fuck you.

You're disgusting feminist nu-male. Women aren't supposed to be strong. You can fuck off to tumblr with your fetishes.

But can't you test the pure jump/crouch/dash input stuff with those models even if the models end up like those old WWE game bugs. Just to see if you like the "feeling".

>The FGG has a (((discord)))

...

And Sachi's not the least bit fat, she hates fat people more than anything.

Without the proper animations it's hard to tell if it's working as intended.

you'd be correct, but the idea of her wearing two whole skintight bodysuits kills it for me, that would be supremely uncomfortable and constrictive.

You'd best not be implying Joseph is worst JoJo, Kars.

Also, I neglected to mention that kind of testing costs money. First to test it in engine with non-characters, then to put the characters in and test it with them.

Seeing as how I have to be efficient with my money, it'd be much better to just wait until I have the required animations before testing it.

Fuck this artist and fuck his samefaced revenge porn.

So my question still stands. What do you do with this project exactly besides fund it?

And you can still test out button inputs like your ideas for jumping with just a square representing a character. All you wanted to do is test out something that doesn't need animations per-se.

I've seen several fighting games that have open development and it definitely seems that some stuff can be "roughly" tested and then given the proper animations later provided you have a model to work with to represent the character. You're gimping youself by thinking that you have to have the finished animation first while developing a 3D game. Just use shapes for characters (rectangular prism for standing, cube for crouching, etc) and test that while you wait for funds.

Even posting those screencaps and videos would do well to show progress in my book.

You could test side steps, double-tap for movement options, and even jumping in your engine to settle on button configurations.

Apart from funding it, I am the director. I designed the characters and several of the concepts as well the game itself (although I'm paying someone else to program it). I mostly oversee the production of the game and draw storyboards and reference sheets.

Same guy who leaked the S2 characters said S3 will kick off with Sagat and Sakura.

What's remarkable is that she still doesn't look as ridiculous as the default appearance of most of the other characters.

Jonathan is best you dub nigger.

Shit, posted it before I was done.

But anyways, regarding the rest of your question, I posted the answer in the post above yours.

Wait, was there any question about this at all? It's a free chat program running through their servers without any advertisement or clear profit model. It's the most obvious thing in the world.

>not Josuke's mom

Nice meme cherry boy.

Tomoko is quality, but girl Joseph is best. Narancia is good too.

Super Buu is out today and he's tons of fun.

twitter.com/marvelvscapcom/status/894969210303946752
Why do they bother anymore? The leak is 100% confirmed

That's not how you spell Josuke.
The little shitter who only has three or four fights as the protagonist.
Aqua Necklace
Ratt
Superfly
Highway Star
And the last Kira fight
Everything else has someone else do all of the heavy lifting. By the end, Koichi is more of a protagonist than he is. At least Joseph didn't get cucked out of his own part by Araki's weird fetish for midgets.

Mr Satan and Tenshinhan? At least someone has a midge of an idea of what "fun" means.

I can't wait for the exciting reveal of this never before seen combatant! Why is Capcom so based, bros? I hope you already pre-ordered your copy. :^)

Hardly a victory for Josuke alone when Kira couldn't lift a finger without the exposition kid blurting out his next 5 moves and how everything he does works.
Joseph might not have been cucked out by Araki's midget fetish but he was certainly cucked out by Araki's 6-year-old-with-bodybuilder-calves fetish.

t. Kirafag

This pic feels Tumblr as fuck dude.

MAHVEL BAYBEE

I'm on a CF at the moment and trying to find a main because I know three motherfuckers that use Suasno-o and two others that want to use Nine so I need to be as no fun allowed as possible.

If the roster was a little bit bigger and solo play wasn't lame I'd be learning her too. I hate that I like puns so much.

A demo would be a start instead of constantly showing crappy pictures of WIPs and ideas like fucking guest characters.

So that's where that ass came from.

The copy-paste train has no brakes.

Are you sure you want girls?
Maybe you like those muscles because you thirst for a hotdog instead.

And don't forget how everyone got cucked in the end when Kira's last blow was given by a fucking ambulance. I still like how being so powerful Kira got killed in such pathetic way that i find it fitting for a guy like him and dispite the issues I like more Josuke and part 4 than Jotaro and part 3

...

If only. Character got T7'ed (aka a shitton of needless details to his design) and it looks like his move set was changed for the sake of MUH COMBOS.

Jotaro's a stupid asshole but the final fight with Dio is pretty well done and, overall, everyone gets to shine in Part 3 which IMO is the best thing about it.
That said, BT and SBR are still my favorite parts.

Satan is fun but I'm tired of the "martial arts man does martial arts" characters, I want to play someone else.

True, but it seems to visually look pretty close to his original outside of Capcom turning him into Ivan Ooze. I didn't play Jedah enough to comment on his movesets functionality, I'm more of a Lilith/B.B. Hood main.

Oh well, why not.

Anyway, seems like Starfire is out. Anyone tested her?

oh yeah, that last fight was great, Dio is really charismatic.
I agree in BT Joseph and the pillar men are just fun to watch, I have yet to read SBR because I'm a filthy anime watcher plus im waiting for part 5 despite that i have hear mixed things about it

Fighting games are for niggermonkeys.

I see you're a man of culture as well.

At least you're doing that, I've only ever played the old arcade Jojo. I haven't felt the need to watch either anime, OVA or whatever or read it.

Bamco is doing a Tekken 7 survey;
research.net/r/S2V92TM
I hope they read my big ass rant that I left about how fucking stupid they are for using denuvo and then updating denuvo after it got cracked.

lol

It'd be funny if it weren't so painfully true

Well, the point of Satan is that he's a fraud, that's what makes him fun. Ten is from DB back when characters felt much more unique in terms of techniques. Bar a few exceptions, DBZ is a generic ki blast fest.

From what I noticed, his air grab is now a dive attack and he has a spin super that can be done in the air. It seems he still has the blood pool super but no sign of the contract one.
And I think we can all be certain the counter and the Dobson are gone.

I only saw the showcase stream. She looks fuckin' ridiculous. Fast projectiles, slow projectiles, beams, air beams, diagonally downwards air beams etc. All with that lovely NRS quality animation that basically gives projectile spamming near immunity.

SBR is pretty good. It always miffed how little it got repped in the FGs when some of its characters have so much potential. Now that I think about it, part of that is because there's a ton of "utility" Stands instead of the usual male stripper robot parade.

Now I did notice there's a shitload of my countrymen in the game, but there might be even more than I thought. I bet Bamco doesn't even read surveys not done in English so I will do it in English anyway.
I will tell the fags to step Kuma customisation up, it's a shameful display right now.

Don't forget to tell them to remove Denuvo.

...

I will

Just choose low variety of characters and then explain later on that you want Roger back in.

Anna is my waifu.

If I pull that off, will she die?

It would be extremely frame-advantageous…

It's still incredible how giving Juri cleavage completely unfucks the colour palette of her costume. It's such an obvious artistic butchery.

Do you have UNIEST on PS4? I'll play you if you do. Still a newbie to this game, but not fighters.

I'm learning Chaos in UNIST. Besides that I play Gundam Versus. I don't have a main suit yet though.

Yeah, hell uncensoring her costume makes most of her default colors look pretty good. With the censorship only maybe two are tolerable.

Some jackass at Capcom fucked up Imagine my shock! and put on his YT channel a esports proposal video that was meant to be passed internally.

Still not a fan of the color distribution. I get the idea but just seems ugly.

(100% charged)
>Aren't excel sheets fighting games great?

I shouldn't be as appalled as I am, but this is disgusting.

Jesus Christ how horrifying

That special invite just reeks of celebrity plug-in.

The original has long been taken down but you're right nonetheless.

She's either got kebab fever or the thought of retaking Constantinople makes her wet.

I want beta twinks that can't handle Big Juicy Strong Women™ (Not Fat®) to go and stay go.

I wonder if anyone at capcom realizes how out of touch they really are?

yup
switched out Fang as a secondary to Bison again

Father, Son and the holy spirit
or would you prefer
fuck, marry and kill?

>marry Juri jooree
May the future generations forgive me.

My modest two cents, Capcom are overall blinded by greed. CoA made the fatal mistakes of letting FGC celebs be anything more than testmonkeys as well as listen to non-costumers while CoJ have been slowly dying of Inafuneitis aka "pandering to the West".

Yeah but KoF looks like a PS2 exclusive, am I right fellow dedicated esports brawlers?

It's amazing how Virtua Fighter 5 is over a decade old and it still looks better than all three of those games.

Look at all the die hard shills the West produces. If you were a souless business man you would be crazy not to take advantage of them until every last shill drop is squeezed out. And judging by james then and this video theres still a lot of shill juice to milk.

Also, like payday 2, it's all about the whales, not the wide audience

Is there no hope for me if I want to play King and do chain grabs well on pad? I can do reasonably well practicing shit but I'd never pull half the wonky shit I do in a real match. I mean, I have trouble hitting two buttons simultaneously sometimes, it's basically impossible to do an RDC without heavily abusing the button mapping options. I can do them fine on stick, but I don't use sticks with tekken because I don't have the wrist dexterity for all the fine movement. I don't think a fightpad would alleviate my troubles either, that's just a regular pad with no sticks and the triggers moved beside the face buttons.

I can do King's chain throws well on pad so just practice and git gud. Also chain throws are usually more trouble than they're worth and the two throws you really want to abuse a lot are the giant swing and the shining wizard, but if you play a lot of online against scrubs I guess chainthrows are good enough.

Well man, more power to you for following through with your idea. But maybe you want to invest some of your free time into learning the basics of programming, enough to start testing things yourself if money is a concern. It sounds like you are always struggling with budget.

You sound like you have a lot of ideas but not being able to work on them and then coming here isn't productive.

I'm very torn, but my love for fighting game boobicles overrides all internal conflicts

Fuck you, I just got home from work and now I have a raging boner. I was going to play video games tonight.

Side note, how the fuck are you supposed to play Angel? Unchain seems finicky.

Yeah, I know they're not that important but they're cool to pull off and make people upset when you eat half their life or more in one go. Do you use the shoulders like the default setup (or at all)? I've used the standard layout for ages with just 1+2+3+4 on right stick so I can ki charge in practice - I would just used L1+R1 but like I said I can't hit shit at the same time for the life of me, usually it's only like a frame off. 1+3 and 2+4 are typically okay because you just flatten your thumb and hit it but even then I occasionally fuck up minutely.

I have a few other ones saved

...

twitter.com/diamonon/status/895001631351164928

The damage control is hilarious!

I have a fightpad now so I crab claw it, back in ye olde days of Tekken 2 when I was a kid I used the shoulders to help me out, there's no shame in that imo. Just practice so you can git gud. Also, if you're really desperate, there's a secret "trick" involving chainthrows where you can just mash 1+2+3+4 and they'll come out due to how macroing works, they casualised this shit ever since Tekken 4. The thing with mashing it out is that it will ALWAYS do the same path if you just mash 1+2+3+4 all the way, the path is the one with the least inputs, if they have the same number of inputs then it depends on the buttons pressed which is complicated and I won't go into it.
HOWEVER, if you do the first input correctly and then just mash 1+2+3+4 you can manipulate the macros AND get the chain throw you want, provided that the first input in the chain throw doesn't share a button with another one.

Let's take the RDC, you do the chainthrow starter, the 3 extensions all share the same button, which is 2, and the second input with the throw that goes into RDC shares the same button as the shitty triple arm break, which is 1, so you have to do this one mostly clean, which is by pressing 2, then 1, then you can buffer 1 and input 2+3 or you can just input 1+2+3+4 after you input the 2 and the 1. After that, since the dragon sleeper has less inputs, you have to do the first input for the RDC (that being 1+3) correctly, after that just keep mashing out 1+2+3+4, you have input it 4 times to get the RDC.

I live in a fucking world where people are making blunders like , and they expect everyone to be okay with this stuff. I just don't know what to really say at this point.

Capcom did so many blunders with MVCI, one more or less doesn't matter and he realises that. FGC will pretend nothing happened because it wants Capcom's tournament shekels, too. Too bad the pros are a minority and they are and will be losing influence once the casuals realise what their agenda is. They'll be left behind.

Yeah, I've tried the ol' tekken fingers but that just exasperates the problem of being a frame off with my buttons. I suppose I really just need to work on that, but I've been that way for years and it hasn't really mattered since I haven't been playing tekken or any other games that need such precise inputs, if there are any. Just gotta get back into it.

As far as SFV faces go, I'd say it could be worse.

Marry and fuck Juri, kill the other two. is that even a question?

>>>/u/

What a faggot.

This guy needs an ass-beating.

But that's the thinking numales' fetish. Just smug at him.

Only if it was done by his sjw overlords.

archive.is/cCz4Q

That Under Night image needs some Hilda.

Are you sure user? Isn't that gay as hell? Is it even physically possible?

I don't understand how they fuck up so badly.

Too much technology and not enough talent.

Why does Chun feel so bad to play in SF4? I know SF4 has had a bit of a nostalgia wave after 5 turned up and started shitting and pissing everywhere but I feel like only the Alpha characters and some newcomers are fun to play in that game.

A friend finally got me into UNIEL after showing me Vatista and I've been practicing some of her charge partitions.

Also shit Jubei came out so I had to update this. There was some spelling mistakes and bad grammar/syntax also I added in the characters I missed the first time. I'll make it look better later once I can find the Jubei portrait.

Part of why I maintain that art direction and overall style is what's most important.
VF5 might look simple but is very coherent and the characters very distinct besides the Bryants and Chans. Also helps that the customization is fantastic and not just "put a rubber ducky on the head and glue a shotgun to the back".

Can't argue with that but Capcom has failed miserably at every attempt. They're obsessing over those COD/GTA figures but they gotta accept that's never going to happen.
They'd probably be smarter if they did what Sega, Atlus and From do - find their niche, budget smartly and just try to make good games. The money comes after. But no, they have to build the cash cow first and foremost.

As for whales, that's definitely KT's court. SFV's trying but it doesn't have shit on DOA5.

Said it before, will say it again - these two months will be the longest for Capcom.

They can't suck Bioware's dick and be expected to be taken seriously by even the normalest of normalfags and Western media will never acknowledge the work done by nip devs because it puts the non-slav West to shame (Yakuza series for photorealism, Xrd for making 3D graphics almost indistinguishable from their sprite work etc).

so ""fantastic"" it looks uncanny and unnatural!

I don't regret what I typed Because I've done worse things in my life.

Oh get fucked.

how many franchises ago did people start giving that advice to Capcom?
It's too late for them to go back on the straight and narrow, they like being shit and are good at it. As much as their new games at the expense of the old fanbase tank, they still survive. After every single fuck up people keep saying they're going to die but they still somehow manage to survive; Are they actually that good at business or did they have so much prestige and goodwill around them before going downhill?

I didn't even see that. That's…that's just…ugh…

I bet you have, faggot.

He's not wrong, it's just a little more on the necromancy side then recovery/resuscitation side.

Nope, I didn't really have any incentive to buy a console so far this generation.

I didn't want MvC:I to fail despite it looking like it would be crap and being sure I wouldn't buy it. But know I want it to crash and burn.
Capcom deserves everything that happens to them.

Our Lord God will not judge us favourably for this.

and he has every right to, you heretics

I was very pessimistic about MvCI knowing it was reusing shit from MvC3 since day one, but not even I expected half of the stuff that happened.

We'll be fine.

Daigo's streaming the Unnamed ARIKA Title and it looks pretty good.

Wonderful user, I think both MK9 Sonya and DOA Helena could fit there too, I guess.

I guess he was talking about the cutscenes. Some are not bad really. In game, it's meaningless, you can't see shit becuase the proportions are realistic, and with the distance, it's not possible.

By the way, those crazy little games that I only discovered now…

what do you think has been the best fighting series over the past decade?

We're almost 6 months into SFV's 2nd year, and…it just got worse. Did anyone really expect anything like Abigail let alone wonderful ideas like telling people they'll be left behind if they hate your game for being an incomplete piece of shit?

Does Eliza have that blood sucking -> breast growth thing in Tekken 7?

The sad thing about Abigail is that, in concept, a random pull from Final Fight should be a cool character. If SFV were inoffensive, I think we'd be laughing with Capcom rather than at them.
Social media and the gig economy it enables were mistakes. Kojima tried to warn us and we didn't listen.

It would also help if the model and designs weren't absurd, and he wasn't made to be an autistic retard.

That WW model was fixed later on.

Yea, with sjw-approved censorship. The model still looks like shit.

...

fucking faggots lol

Prove it, faggot.

That shitty fighter is from the same team and publisher that thought adding sjw-approved shit to MKX and making guest characters like Jason and Alien broken fighters were good ideas. Use your common sense.

no one spends time modeling an ass and then says "lets make it flat". If you're sitting down modeling a butt for 20 hours you think you're gonna make it flat and weak?

You're illiterate. I never said anything about Injustice 2. Strange as it may be, more than one person may think you're a faggot.
Have you paid any attention to NRS or the Western AAA gaming industry for the last 10 years? Provide a shred of evidence as to why it shouldn't be considered censorship or slit your wrists.
Protip: self-censorship by an artist in the face of pressure, real or perceived, is still censorship.
Your next post will be "But you've never created art! You don't know anything about the creative process!"

How much are you getting paid to defend NRS's incompetence or do you do it 4 free?

Are you so fucking new you haven't noticed the IDs, which were implemented for this exact purpose? I dislike them on principle but if they oust retards and newfags like you then I can hardly complain.

Please kill yourself, you worthless piece of autistic shit.

And neither should acting like a pathetic, autistic bitch that uses words like "triggered" on this site unironically.

MODS, BANNU
I had the common fucking decency to lurk instead of bragging about it and condemning other anons for giving a shit about the topic of discussion.

Someone explain this shit to me. So basically they're paying shills to play fighting games?

Basically John D leaked out sleazy business propositions that should have been kept privately, and to add insult to injury he used a modder's Juri mod when she only in the game as a Story Mode character. The attempt to make MvCI a CPT game is a slap in the face to SFV with Capcom promising to support SFV as the main game.

...

So basically they haven't learned a damn thing from Street Fighter V, aren't these idiots bleeding money? How can they be making such dumb moves when they should be trying to promote their brand? They don't have that annual hit like EA and Activision do. They should sell themselves to another Japanese company like SEGA or Namco.

A pile of dumb esports shit.

It misunderstands everything. It misunderstands F2P addiction mechanics by demanding daily logins without providing a daily reward. It misunderstands the function of streaming as a method of advertising and community interaction by forcing all streams onto one host, presumably enforced by DMCA takedowns. It misunderstands the tournament scene by reserving a lot of Capcom Cup spots for the top fourteen players on the online ladder when Arturo Sanchez kindly showed us what being #1 in the world online is worth. It misunderstands small tournaments as something to be squeezed for money rather than cultivated to help channel players, particularly more casual and newer ones, into their games.

Capcom is run by business majors with no understanding of the business that they're in.

Piss off.

The Fgc and sjw-cucks like Maximilian and Geoff the Sjwcuck-Hero allow them to do this. Wong, Filipino Champ, and Max are not going to risk their weed by saying SFV and MvCI suck , knowing Capcom can kill their "careers" for having the balls to say SFV and MVCI are dog-shit awful.

Capcom is out of touch with everything. Oh yea, reminder that Arturo is a manchild lolcow no one wants to be around even if he's right about a few things.

Thanks for your encouragement. Of course whether I programmed the game myself or not wouldn't have mattered for the issues we're currently dealing with.

This guy talks like he has a bunch of sausages in his mouth. Someone should intersperse it with a bunch of belches, coughs and farts.

Like actually making the game, Cabbagepots?

You could be testing and implementing basic features like movement options on your own time and your own dime. You don't need finished animations to see if you like double tapping for jumping or crouching.

New fighting series or just in general?

I agree with your post but Arturo was only number 1 at the time because there was no ranking for matches so you could just beat beginners all day and rage quitting wasn't punishable either.

Yes, I did already test it, a long time ago. I just posted it here because I was trying to gather opinions on it.

Best new IP from the past decade? Under Night In-Birth
Best long running series still kicking around? The King of Fighters

This guy attacked someone over suicide on his stream

If only Advol had gotten more fights and 20 meter Emerald Splash wasn't wasted on what basically amounts to a story battle where the boss is invincible.

Than like it's been said many times, it's hard to judge something without a playable build to work with.

What sticks out to me about UNIEL is how simple the movelists for characters are. Nobody has more than 8 specials and command normals are also no more than maybe 5. Makes it a lot less daunting to pick up other characters when they don't have Arc system-tier levels of character specific mechanics.

The next JoJo fighter needs to have some interesting characters.
All I really want is Death 13, Keicho Nijimura, Foo Fighters, and Ringo Roadagain. If I could get even one of them into the next game, I'd be happy.

There won't be another jojo fighter since Bamco for some fucking reason has to be in control of every anime video game ever. Just look at what they did with the last jojo game; in exchange for not forcing the devs to cut tons of characters for DLC again they cut the budget and dev time in half. That led to the devs cutting out co-op story mode and local vs. mode.

Eyes of Heaven is a piss heap made out of the remains of refunded and broken ASB disks and ASB is still better anyway.

I've thought about whether or not this would be a good idea.
Reverse charge moves.
Simple as that.

Eyes of Heaven could have been good; CyberConnect2 knows how to make good games but Bamco treats them like Project Soul

Google translate version, but sounds accurate: Thank you for your opinion.
However, we do not have the security enough to release the PC version as the product version and the ability to handle the model.
First of all I would like to do my utmost to make PS 4 version available.

They're probably gonna just push out the PS4 version and Arcsys will pick it up for a PC port later like UNIEL if Arika doesn't do one themselves.

I remember that. That guy went on to do Tr4sh commentary, if memory serves.

The Unchains are divided in three phases. Look at Gunsmith's 2002UM tutorial. It's good for XIV too.

I agree with .You don't need to be the programmer of your game but at least enough so you can at least test the game yourself and look for errors. By my own experience working in a project where the programming team was not close and communication was only through emails and video calls, there will be a lot of troubles. So if you want to minimize costs, I suggest you that.

I got to give props to Blazblue for introducing me to animefightans. It's a series that kept being better every new game gameplaywise but worse to shit on its story progression. Seriously, what the fuck is this linear bullshit? I loved that you could branch new paths if you finish a character with a Distortion or an Astral in the first games.
Skullgirls is also another one that did everything right in the UI and online aspect but looks like no big company cares about those stuff. It also came out of nowhere.
UNiEL looks fun but didn't really had much time playing it.

So, they're literally buying their way into tournaments? What happened to "we choose what people want to play"?

Technically I will only consider buying Tekken7 when the DLCs are known and available in a bundle with the game. So I guess the "discount" option is for me?

Like Vatista(UNiEL) and Kagura(Blazblue)? What do you mean?

I assume you mean forward to back and up to down, Vatista has that in Under Night and Saki has it in Arcana Heart.

The best IMO is either Blazblue or Guilty Gear.
BB built a new series and changed and evolved a lot over the years. Loads of very unique characters and very different play styles with somewhat simple controls yet a very high ceiling.
GG, the series returned well with AC+R and then Xrd breathed new life in the anime series in the West - it showed how to evolve a series well and a technical and artistic marvel.
My favorite is UNIEL though, because I like how it mixes ground-based footsies with anime-tier combo bullshit. Also, top tier sniffs.

The next Jojo needs to not rely on so many cinematic moves. It's one reason I still prefer HttF to ASB.

That's arcsystem for you. They had similar branching path ideas in GG's story modes.

He's not wrong, and people who bring up suicide just like that are whoring for attention. I would've been more tactful about it on a stream though.

Look, I know we're on an ebin taiwanese shadow puppet board and all, and that one quality of these boards (which you've garnered from the social media websites you frequent) is to be VRY ANGRY ALL TIME, but think about what you're saying.

So, this is in development and close to launch…

tfw you want to be part of the NWO but run a gefilte fish stand

To that asshole who was "90% certain Blair's next" - I hope you step on a Lego.
In all seriousness, this reveal, even if just a teaser, came a lot quicker than I expected. Thought we'd be left out in the blue for a few more months.

Grats Capcom. Quite the accomplishment.

Dubs confirm that Capcom outjewed the jew.

Accurate?

Looks bretty neat, what platforms?

It's like pottery.

Here store.steampowered.com/app/676120/Sango_Guardian_Chaos_Generation_Steamedition/

Why does discord always attract autists that do their best not to do what the group was intended for. It's nothing but a bunch of autists not playing fighting games and talking about shit not related to fighters at all fuck these guys

...

The only people in non-anonymous, imageboard groups are attention-whores, it happens with Steam, it happens with in-game clans, it happens with Discord. It's not the service but the attention-seeking people from imageboards that are the problem.

I don't care if Tekken 7 looks good and runs good. It's sadly still Tekken.

I'm not sure if they joking or being serious. I mean, the game is already a rip-off.
Let's all point and laugh of them one way or another.

I know, user. I know.

...

SNK is that good but unassertive guy that ends up falling with the wrong crowd. Because, ya know, beaners.
NRS is the guy most likely to sleep with a tranny.
Capcom USA always insists on bringing that one friend everyone else hates.
Namdai has a inhumanly terrible taste in music and clothing.

As someone who made (and shut down) the Xonotic discord, I can tell you exactly what happens:
You talk to the same small group of people for long enough that you run out of game relevant shit to talk about. Depending on playerbase size and other factors, you may have become burnt out on the game itself, but you don't want to bail on it entirely. Thus the discord becomes a cycle of not quite talking about the game
IRC shares a similar issue, but at least requires active participation where discord allows offline messages and such, and with some games it has practical functions (matchmaking, alerts, shit like that)

Also for the 4 of you that play Skullgirls in here, I've been playing Double against my friend (we're both shit tier) who plays Filia. They've won 2 matches, but otherwise end up playing too defensively/passively and end up letting me set the pace. I've suggested being more active and said we should practice on a more granular level (checking replays and such), but is there any matchup-specific information I should give them? I'm not going to sandbag, but see no issue with giving them info they can use to win

Come out man, it'll be easier.

HOW DO I GET UP GOOD IN TEKKEN 7
And when are they adding my main?

Get up good?

Post sticks; Here's a project I finished a week or two ago.

I'm not trying to be edgy though. The way he put it was all fucked up but I agree with the sentiment. The guy had no reason to bring up suicide in his donation message except for scoring free pity points.

The full Arika stream in case anyone's curious:
twitch.tv/videos/165533121

Showcases Skullomania and Darun.
Allen will be properly shown at TGS.
As is, they admit they currently lack the manpower and resources to make a PC version.
They're considering Excel combos likely as part of the Gougi system.
Still no word on SP content.
Game build is around 20%.
They're going to try and get the old sound team (supersweep / Shinji Hosoe).
They're still discussing the roster's size; probably going to be 10 characters at release and then gradually add more. They're interested in bringing back all the EX characters.
They acknowledge Fighting Layer but the 19 characters from SFEX take priority.
Despite that, they're receptive to guest characters but fans need to be vocal about it.

Hey, if they add all the SFEX characters for free and Fighting Layer as an update for like $10-$20, I'd buy it. It looks like a neat game. Plus the ability to support a smaller dev team is nice if they can produce quality work.

How do I learn when to roll and when to kick and when to kip-up and shit, I keep getting juggled from the floor and life is pain. I haven't played since Tekken 5.

Play Dark Resurrection

I can't go back to DR after the way Baek flamingo's from most of his attacks in T6 onwards.

I'll take a discord that goes off topic often, but still occasionally gets me proper games over a thread that has a guy literally copy pasting his posts from reddit, and people circlejerking dead games but dodging the moment someone actually asks to play literally every fucking time.

in b4 Capcom goes after dataminers for doing their job of getting people interested in the game

Apparently there's also data for Sagat's stage which corroborates the claim he'll be on S3.

I'll admit I'm curious to see a remake of Cammy's stage and admittedly interested in a stage for FANG if it means we're getting a remix of his theme (the only good thing about SFV).

Does it have a tutorial or something? I've never played with anyone except local friends before.

None of the Tekken games have a tutorial.

That sucks, oh well it's cheap as fuck. I'll just get it for dicking around with my friends.

PLZ

Huh 10 seems a bit small, but if they're balanced well it wouldn't bother me much. 14 seems like a good base roster for a revival if they had the budget
Damn, to be honest I like the FIghting Layer roster a bit more than the EX characters. At least it confirms that they own the rights for them and not bamco.

Also did anyone make a webm of Capcom's MvCI esports shilling? Because it's getting DMCA'd

It is and they're aware of that. Seems one of the reasons is that they want the Gougi system to come out perfectly, a point they really hammered on during the Q&A.
If the number is set in stone, I suppose it's safe to think that the next 4 will be Blair, Pullum, D. Dark and C. Jack. I just jinxed it, didn't I?

Along with my nigger Volcano Rosso those are the guys from SF EX I wanna see the most.

In what sort of fresh hell did I just stumble? And why am I only moderately surprised?

Nah those guys will be in for sure, Blair & Pullum are the most popular females/easy waifu bucks while D.Dark is easily one of the best designed characters from the EX games. C.Jack is the only one I'd see being up in the air.

I'm already satisfied with Hokuto/Shirase and Allen regardless who ends up in the base roster.

When you get a copyright strike on your youtube account they make you watch a video then answer a quiz

I posted it in with the beginning and end filler cut out.

You are, all the same. You might not be consciously doing it but the idea someone shouldn't talk about through a fucking pseudonym (and the idea that the only reason someone could mention it is for pity points) is pretty goddamn edgy.
Or, you know, because he felt strongly about nearly fucking killing himself and he wanted the streamer to understand how positive his impact on this guy's life was. Look, I don't expect you to pretend to be compassionate on an image board of all places, but there's no reason to believe the donor was acting selfishly when he has little to gain.
People certainly can get pity points from Twitch chat, but that isn't the point. You're arguing a semantic interpretation of a single message, with argument necessitating ignoring the easy explanation of simple human decency and emotional empathy.

Oh shit, didn't see it. Thanks

Neither did I and just posted another YT mirror like a stupid asshole.

Well I downloaded that mirror as a back so thanks as well.

I wonder if After Story C is any good though, a shame the bugfixes are balance changes in disguises though.

Confirmed for being a good game

They could just be saying that, If they do get big that's the exact direction they would be going. Now it would be a bad time to repeat what their main competitor is being hated for. And I'm betting they actually are going for making this game instead of it being a joke because of the situation fans are right now with Capcom.

Also Inafune proved that people will spend money on competitors just to spite capcom.

as long as they don't make it the main focus for the actual development that alone will help the game.

that's super cool user

Trying to learn waifu2x but I don't have an nVidia GPU so it takes a buttload longer to process images. Still, have a wallpaper sized version of art that's been posted before. It was upscaled 1.5x and then that was upscaled 2x because I'm a faggot and I'm using koroshell instead of learning the command line arguments.

Well, it would be easier to port fighting layer now, si more fans know about it.

wow, why do you have to type like that to make your point?

I just got a 5.7gb update for xrd
what is it?

he wouldn't have a tiny penis, he'd have a big one but can't get hard or lasts a minute, it's all for show

So when is Capcom USA going to change Cammy's default costume?

...

i mean there's no reason to.
the ammo pouches is them trying to change it for appeasement
while the battle alternate is them perfecting the alternate much like the default.
so really all cammy should be now is default with camo legs, battle costume as alternate, with a random third from time to time.

but in reality, Street Fighter is gonna have a change in management and go the way of the chinese knockoffs and Cammy's design is gonna have a major change in physique. The chinese knockoff will probably be a more loli version of cammy, basically a 3d version of her sf2 and sfalpha design where shes like half the size of everybody and looks like shes 14 (which in a lore perspective, she kinda is). it wasn't until sf4 that she got drastically changed and became even more popular than chun-li. Which is something a lot of the newfags on this board don't even realize, even chun-li is a seasonal waifu much like cammy and the others. It wasn't until sfv where they made her tits bigger and made her thighs bigger than her torso that she became the gross domestic precum of the year for a lot needle dicks. In other words your waifu shit because somebody out there is able to call it shit. I'm still waiting for the true waifu of our time, maybe I'll live to see it. But when the human race does, no one will be able to call it shit.

Good user

I wanna fuck that chair.

haha nice intro

I'm still waiting for Last Blade vs Samurai Shodown.

okay. I'm calling the police.

King.

Hinako

Thanks for the Byakuya on UNIEL pc for reminding me that some times just blocking is the best solution.
I need to study match ups as my knowledge of other characters is pretty poor at the moment.

Nah, it's dangerous to stick on crazy.
I prefer the tall bird lover.

...

Cammy's a sloot

...

Man they should have really held off with the game for a few months an make it an actual port instead of an arcade rip. It's a damn shame since the game itself is actually pretty solid and enjoyable.

Apparently they're aware of it and fixing it - if they patch it and it works, I'll probably pick it up but right now it looks like a mess.
As expected of the Chinese, sadly.

...

I'd say SNK is more "eager to please" and "very loyal" considering they not only managed to keep their same fanbase from back in '98 but also they're the most eager to please (see Team China being the main characters in XIV, the inclusions of Team Mexico and Team BrazilSouth America)

While I do get the King of Mexicans meme (after all SNK is huge there the same way SEGA is in Brazil, they do have a history) it's still funny that Mexico at least doesn't even have that much of a tourney presence. Hell didn't Americans actually BTFO them in a recent tourney?

Styles are way too different. Even the LB characters were stuck in Power groove, which is closest to the SS style, they'd still have a huge advantage by means of the parrying mechanic.

I hate how there's so little art of the XIV girls. Especially Sylvie

Also SNK's YT account uploaded Destiny's first two episodes with English subs and JP audio.

I don't know if I should refund it or not. The gameplay hits all the right notes for my 90's/early 00's 2.5D fighter nostalgia boner, but god damn is it a pain in the ass to get to the point where you can enjoy it.

There were some at EVO's top 8. I remember one that played Luong and was genuinely rooting for him. That said, ET taking it was also great. Quite a rollercoaster of emotions that top 8.

They came at a wrong time. 10-15 years earlier and artists would be all over it.

The poor quality CG is no indication of its success or failure (Kemono Friends speaks volumes in that regard) but it kinda triggered my 'tism they didn't use Geese's AoF2 look for the fight with Jeff.

Side note, Japan sure is looking forward to them functions!

If they are going to, they'll most likely shamelessly copy paste what modders have made.

But user, Your waifu can only be shit if you believe she's shit. She's your waifu after all.

no

Japan has never really liked Marvel, they see it as a party game like smash bros.

No thanks

...

why would you post this

thats doesnt look healthy at all

I seriously hope that guy ain't dead or at least has some social media or even pixiv

They certainly not gonna like it now when it's a borderline sausagefest + the art direction all bending over to the MCU.

Is your pic a mod? If so, it looks better than her regular costumes.

It's a mod based on her Final Fight Streetwise look.

Yeah, it's a mod. Personally I'd rather just see pants over her leotard.

People know about that game?

How do I git gud at guilty gear?

You, like, play the game.
Play the tutorial + mission mode. Just like any fighting game you should work on understanding and using the mechanics first so you can develop solid fundamentals you can build on, optimal combos and matchup knowledge are worries for later.

Oh right, tutorial and mission mode is in Xrd's case. Otherwise you're stuck watching airdash academy and guilty gear crash course.

Are you playing a difficult character or are the system mechanics giving you trouble?

anyone here playing street fighter v? I've been giving it a go the last month or so but it's really getting frustrating.

Just basics, really. This is the second fighter I've played and I'm feeling a little overwhelmed.

I'd probably get killed or be sacrificed to Orochi, but it's worth it.

These will completely throw off Cammy's aerodynamics. Didn't the retard who made this give it any thought?

Well, all I can tell you to do is to play the tutorial and pick a basic character like Ky, Sol, Axl, May, or maybe Leo/Faust if you don't mind challenging yourself. I'm in the same boat you are and I like Ky a lot because he has good tools for everything and I like having a fireball, but you may find Axl easier because his gameplay is much slower and more focused on screen control with fullscreen normals. Sol is a much more aggressive version of Ky, and May is a charge character with high damage and good screen control through summons and a weird projectile. Leo has big dumb special moves that are pretty easy to use, but he also has a stance which changes all his normals and makes him unable to block, so that may be too much. Faust is similar to Axl but he's more aggressive, and thus lacks Axl's wealth of defensive options.

I've heard Sin recommended as a beginner character, but his gatlings are very limited so I think he's more like an intermediate character.

Also, the video series I mentioned are very good advice. The Street Fighter's Guide to Guilty Gear, although a bit outdated due to the release of Rev2, inspired me to play the game.

My Steam ID is DirigibleQuixote, so we can play some matches on Sunday if my internet decides to co-operate.

Best girl of course

I thought we ran you slegs out

Have to try harder than that

First and foremost, don't play SFV. Second, that frustration your feeling is likely due to the lack of decent defensive options, making you feel stuck and powerless.

twitter.com/aksysgames/status/895690203679014912

I think they just love too much 2002og and most tournaments with visibility happen in USA so those tequila-fuelled quarter monsters that plays at bars won't travel to nerdy e-sports events.

But isn't Ash literally Elisabeth's fuckboy?

I hope we keep getting stories like this with the cast, this was pure gold.

Yeah. With the exception of Guile's Flashkick I don't think there's a very good dp or dp like move in the game. It makes you rely on trying to time a jab or a crouching hard punch for jump-ins which is pretty rough on the timing part all things considered especially in the case of the former. The only thing it really has going for it is the fact that matches queue up pretty quick regardless of time of day.

My supreme soul brother.

Even the Flash Kick loses to jump-ins on wake up sometimes. For a game that tries to pride itself on forcing the players to commit to their decisions, SFV can't seem to have moves work or not work consistently. Truly a marvel of poor programming.

At this point, I'm convinced Koihime Enbu is a better Street Fighter game. Well, until you get a fatal counter.

So I am currently playing Sin from Xrd Rev2, anyone got tips from him?

What if I choose none of the above?

Push buttons, win the game.

It's gonna sell a million copies and everyone's going to treat that like a success until we find out that Capcom's internal projections were for eight million.

...

And someone retracted all the dumb titles he gave himself on Twitter too.

What

I saw this shit earlier I could barely make it 5 minutes in and I was skipping around and I play the fucking game. Between this and crying at evo can he just admit that he is full of shit.

He's probably the one that had to suck Disney executive's dicks to fund MvCI

Red Bull costumes should have gone to Ken and Laura rather thean Ryu and Chunli.

I just found out there were SIX Final Fight games. FF1 was the only one for arcades; the rest were for consoles. All were scrolling beat'em ups but one was 1vs1 street fighter-ish game using FF characters…

Does SFZ3 count as an anime game?

No wonder that the game flopped. The guy behind this is a memefag.

Some UNI[st] live from Japan, my nigganons.
Friday is Free-play night for UNIEL at Club Sega Shinjuku.

forgot the link: twitch.tv/csshinjukunishiguchi

Fantasy Strike is having another free weekend if anyone gives a mild shit at all. I do, because I played only an hour last time and couldn't stomach it for too long.
fantasystrike.com/blog/2017/play-fantasy-strike-pre-alpha-free-weekend-august-11-14th-on-pc-and-mac

-Changes

Well, they have the results… game.capcom.com/cfn/sfv/aprilfool/2017

I have no idea who is Sirlin's main but the grab button is a good thing for me because the the distance to activate a grab or a normal/command normal was iffy so many times I wanted to do a check on the opponent I was yomi contered becasuse the grab had such priority. Direction plus button (that is a normal otherwise) is good in games that have more options for normals like KOF or Guilty Gear. In Fantasy Strike it felt restricted.

I read they changed some animations too so let's hope that "Remix Culture" bullshit changes with every update.

His main is Not-Slayer

Jesus I miss Last Blade. Fun gameplay, but even more amazing atmosphere/aesthetics.

Are more competitive-oriented Smash clones alright? Because the one I play just announced a new character who looks pretty cool. Unfortunately with the speed they work at he probably won't be out until late September.

Rivals of Aether is neat, but the sprites are painfully low-poly and the animation is pretty lacking, although the latter may have improved over time. Vore Frog looked alright, and from the gameplay it looked like his gimmick is that his poison attacks mark enemies, which boosts the power of certain special moves and presumably his smash attacks.

Rivals would have had a much better life it if hadn't released with all of four characters and three stages. It removes a lot of the bullshit in Melee, which of course means smashfags get to complain about muh transferable musscle memroy.

There are no other good Smash clones. The gameplay is fun enough for a party game, but I've found (no offence) Guilty Gear has many of the same rock-paper-scissors-heavy neutral decisions and most airdashers are more mobile than Melee.

So how full of shit is this graph? I just watched a video by Core-A gaming about simplicity in fighting games and Fantasy Strike came up. I'm aware of the game but have never played it nor watched any footage but the moment I saw this picture I had to go look into it. The argument that "all other fighting games" occupy this opposite side of the rift is a bit perplexing. Do games like Smash bros not fall inbetween of input simplicity? Do games like Under Night In Birth with it's simple movelists and universal motions (barring Vatista's charge inputs) not put it as less complex than your standard Arc System game?

How much shit is Sirlin on or is there any validity to what he and Rising Thunder are trying to do? And is his game any good? I've seen it mentioned here and it sounds like a soulless fighting game.

They went pretty in-depth about his gimmicks. The poison causes any whiffed attack to do 1% damage to the poisoned guy, but any attack that connects will remove a stack. It also increases how long an enemy stays in his bubble.
It's got (I think) 9 stages now, maybe 8. There are 8 characters right now and number 9 (Ori from that metroidvania) comes out the 23rd. I can't really play real fighting games anymore because I have trouble with my hands from my job. I can still play this, though it does affect me still.
Especially the lion. They were talking about maybe going back to redo older characters' spritework once the art for the remaining characters (3 original ones after the frog and one more guest character after that) is done. That would be nice. I play the bird so it's not too bad, but the lion's spritework is painfully bad.

...

In short, that graph is more of a marketing tool than a real appraisal. You must understand Sirlin is the kind of guy who thinks that OSing a throw in Guilty Gear with 4/6S+H is a huge deal because the throw input is supposed to be just 4/6H and the OS is "strictly better." I'm using this example in particular because he whined about it on his personal blog a while ago and I thought it was goddamned hilarious.
I really like that channel's videos, but he's way too eager to be an apologist for FGCelebs. His last video was 12 minutes of him talking about how ass SFV's design is, but he ended it with the same milquetoast "well, maybe capcom will listen to the fans and patch it" sludge you've seen everywhere.
Smash isn't a fighting game, but on that graph it'd probably be somewhere between Fantasy Strike and the hrair. As for actual fighting games with simple-as-Smash inputs, the new Blade Strangers apparently has them, and I know Them's Fighting Herds (RIP) is also looking at having the most complex motion be a 236+button for your super.

I haven't played Under Night so I couldn't tell you how complex the atomic gameplay is.

Apparently one big success of the Rising Thunder alpha was getting players to recognize that special moves are just different tools in a character's kit. Many players make the mistake of thinking a special move is inherently superior to normal moves.
There was a guy posting about his experience with it a thread or two ago. He thought it was alright, but it falls prey to the same fallacy other "accessible fighting games" do in that anyone shallow enough to enjoy this won't enjoy the complexities of something real, and anyone enjoying something real won't want something this shallow.

Low-res, low-fi. Whatever. Muh voxels. Fuck it.

I would have been okay with that if it had launched with them. It's been out for what feels like two years now and they've only added that much, eh? I can't say I'm too impressed, although I don't know what they could have done to win me over.
That's fucking rough, dude. More power to you if this scratches that itch.

It'll actually be two years next month if you're counting Early Access. It came out of that in March, I think. They added some decent single-player stuff too. Story mode's basically just a few regular fights for each character, and then one big boss where you get to use all of them. The story stuff itself honestly makes me cringe. They also added "abyss mode". I play that a lot. You do a bunch of waves with different objectives. Stuff like killing a bunch of weak enemies or knocking enemies into a rift thing. Every completed wave gives XP. Once you level up you can buy runes with the ingame gold (earned only from actually playing, not buyable or anything) and equip them so you do better next time. There's a special vs mode where you can play with your custom characters too. It's just a silly little thing that lets you get some really broken setups. Honestly, most of the changes have been balancing characters.
It's something.

I'm not sure if this is an innane complaint or not. Not at a level where I even think about option selects in GG.

I treat it as one but I'm not going to drag the thread into a semantics discussion.

Basically standard notations still exist, but characters are very focused around a handful of specials and everyone has two supers with the same input across characters. Command normals are almost universal as well with stuff like 3+C being a knockup.

I will have to dig up an archive to see what he said exactly. I might even try the free weekend just to get a taste of it myself.

So who do you guys think will be in Arika's new fighter? We know there will be 10 for sure and they will all be EX characters. My money is on;
Shirase/Hokuto
Kairi
Garuda
Skullomania
Darun Mister
Allen Snider
Doctrine Dark
Blair Dame
Pullum Purna
Cracker Jack or Vulcano Rosso

Pretty much. Together with the other 6, it's the EX1 newcomers.

It's one of the pettiest things he could have chosen. It amounts to pushing a second button due to the game using only H for throws rather than a button combination that automatically OSs like Street Fighter. In fact, there's little difference between the OS input in either game, but.
It's not really a conscious decision, which is the whole point of an OS. You just throw with two buttons instead of one and it's the objectively correct thing to do.
