Them's Fightin' Herds

Anyone looking forward to this release in a week?
I heard about it a few years back and didn't think of much till recent when I heard it was close to release. They've come a long way from what I can tell, and I really like how clear a lot of the animation is specifically. Makes reading what's onscreen easier.

Sure smells like shill in here.

Beat me too it.

For what it counts, I like that trailer theme.

I do wonder how did they manage to snatch a cross promotion with arksys

Can't talk about a fighter, eh? Don't buy the game, idiot, I just wanted to get legitimate opinions from people who regularly play fighters.
Threads are being deleted on half Holla Forums and the /vg/ /fgg/thread because they're being told to post on /mlp/ instead, but there seem to be people who aren't regular posters of that board who wanna talk about it. The posters in the threads don't seem to care, but one or two people are reporting them to mods and the mods are just being cum guzzling faggots and marking it off as pony posts. That's what I'm hearing from the only place I can find mentions of it at least.

Anyway, I'm glad the inputs are as simple as they are, I hate complicated long winded stick inputs. Maybe that makes me a retard.

It makes you a smashfag in addition to shill. I don't know which is worse.

then perish

Yeah, I backed it and then forgot about it for a few years. Hope they don't delay it again.

It's really shitty. You can win most fights just by button mashing.
t. someone who actually played it

This is weak even for horsefuckers.

It looks like a fun concept, first time I've seen a fighter with barnyard animals.

Is there a surge in hyper fighters recently? What with MvC:i, the blazblue crossover, dragonball fighters and this.

Looks like horsefucker bait

Is it super combo based or is there some leeway in playing footsies and positioning? Is it worse than SFV? Whatever I fucking suck at fighting games anyway

...

It was originally a horsefucker doujin game but they switched it to oc do not steal shit to avoiced getting C+D'd.

that's really cute

Basically the posts I was expecting. I'm not even a horsefucker, but I wanted to see the sort of reception I'd get posting this in the current year. Crazy to think there are still people this upset over some cartoon show for children.

dunno, I'm new to fighting games. here's some fag commenting over a tourney match the beta players held or something, maybe you'd be able to give an opinion based on a glimpse. I'm curious to hear what someone who knows anything about fighters has to say on the game youtu.be/57GS2h9xCRs?t=34s

Hi cuckchanner.

I only use the /vg/ over there, for one specific thread.
What are you trying to prove exactly?

no.

Can't wait for this thread to be deleted for breaking imaginary rules listed nowhere.

The rule is make sure we don't interupt the flow of free shit the mods get to allow these obnoxious shills to spam here. See every fucking nintendo thread.

Then ban everyone trying to discuss a new game because it's shilling.

If you can't tell the difference between an actual organic post and a paid advertisement (see this OP and the fucking falcom thread OP) you are a blind idiot.

me too

Ah yes what would you rather have me post? What makes this thread different than any of the other posts about any other games ever? I think you just want to find a reason to be a flaming faggot and screech about something you don't personally like.

That fucking MLP fighter /mlp/haggots used to shill on the old Holla Forums? Fuck. No.

That it's about horsefucker games? Are you so dense that you do not see how that is worth derision?

YOU HAVE TO GO BACK

Stay in your containment site, faggot

Kill yourself, ponyfucker. Stay in the fighting game thread.

What's going on with the bar surrounding the super meter stock? Is it EX moves, or a move canceller?

Well, that was how it started as then it got a c & d and they had to actually make something original.

Haven't' heard about this project in a long time. About as forgotten as skullgirls, especially since they're using the same engine. You can tell which Skullgirl's move they used and how they tryed to design their OC's over it to make it work without changing damage properties. The only original looking thing seems to be this RPG maker pixel shit for the lobby.

Might be good but I don't expect much. It'll probably be as good as skullgirls but will likely be forgotten by the masses in 6-12 months. If only it had better designs since it seems they have competent people behind it.

That's the magic meter, it's sort of like Blazblue's drive system. Character-specific gimmicks that are tied to the Magic button (so buttons are L/M/H/Magic), and there are also character-specific ways of refilling it.

Cow gets a lasso, Deer gets snowflake projectiles and wind, Unicorn uses it to power up her projectile/teleport/traps, Alpaca throws random food and shit at you, Sheep uses it to summon her dogs, Snek uses it to do cool flips and dives.

Almost makes me want to play to be contrarian. I've no interest in mlp, but from everything I see the game's got a decent amount of work, enough for me to at least attempt to figure out a little about it. If you don't wanna talk about it, you can hide the thread. Or are you salty that some thread got pushed off page 14 on Holla Forums of all places. Repeating yourselves over and over screaming about how you hate something may be par for the course, but improvement starts with you all. You have the power to control what you consume. Also nice catch on the tumblr filename, I follow some porn artists over there. Once again, you've definitely pinned me as the lower scum I am congratulations. Keep spamming the same thing everyone always throws out to shitpost threads.

magic meter, each character has magic bound to a special button. Some have more charges, some get refilled different ways, it just seems like an extra thing they threw in to add some variety and options

Opinion disregarded.

The animations are done from scratch, they used a completely different way of building the character models compared to SG's hand-drawn stuff

I used to be like this, I'd make up opinions on topics just because I'd see things spammed enough times to believe I should feel the same way. You know what's more refreshing? Taking a moment to actually critically analyze what you believe and why.

That you think this is some sort of enlightening post and not a complete joke shows how new you are.

This is one of the worst threads I think I've ever opened.

Not even, I've been around Holla Forums forever. It's tiring to see the same shit repeated forever. I'm not trying to come off as smart, I'm trying to talk to you as an individual and attempt to actually have a conversation, instead of the tired canned typical Holla Forums responses I've seen for fucking years. I came here during the first exodus, and I've used normal ol 4chan from way back before that. Only fucking idiots actually care about how they come across in the end. I can predict every shitpost that I'm probably going to see, for whatever I'm going to post, and it's maddening that we've reached this point. Maybe we didn't even reach this, maybe we've always been like this, but a while back I was a very bitter person. I started forming my own opinions, and god I got way happier. If you care what people think about you here in the slightest, with anonymity on your side, you're foolish

nvm here we go again

If you weren't new, you'd know that the average Holla Forumsirgin fucking hates bronies, and have since long before the first exodus, and i mean fucking hate them.

yeah they did. I was around back when it was banned from Holla Forums and they created the containment board. That was AGES ago. From what I can tell, it's become irrelevant, and the fact anyone is still this mad over the topic is baseless, outside of maybe parroting what they've heard

this shit sure isn't going to make people want to post in the thread any more

That wasn't the main point. I mostly wanted to see the reaction the thread would get, as well as whatever anyone posted in relation to the game. It's been a good experiment.

You idiot. You asked about making this thread and were told, repeatedly, to go away and never come back. Why didn't you listen?

or maybe, just maybe, it's the fact that the fans of that particular media are some of the most cancerous human beings on planet earth and turn everything they touch, from youtube videos to vidya threads on a mongolian tapestry imageboard, into complete garbage

Actually I didn't ever ask anyone, I'm not sure who you're referencing. It's been productive, if anything, to me

Inb4 massive brony spam

if anything, this experiment proves that hiding a thread instead of replying to one you don't want to see discussed is far more effective

You know what I like also? Undertale. It was a good game. I hate the fanbase, I don't consume anything from the fandom, but if someone asked if I like the game I'll tell em yeah. Goes back to caring about what people think about you. Find the real spergs, and chastise them. There's a real distinction that I think Holla Forums lost. That or we never had it and I'm looking through rose tinted goggles.

...

Behold: the works of one who consorts with beasts!

Explains the thread quality. That's the point.

jesus, there's 121 different tracks?

Great thread!

It's good to see that some think and form opinions of their own rather than contort themselves into the same vague identity most do.
I regret not having something to say about the game, but it is dually good to see that the thread's remained and been DISCUSSED, however high or low that discussion's been, rather than being instantly removed at the whims of a volunteer (and despite not violating any stated rules). Shows that there's indeed some hope for us.

The only low quality I see is your own speech, and that of those among you. Personally, I hate fighting games in general, some might hate this one for whatever features they find distasteful, and others (most) probably have a combination of gameplay elements and it being furfag tier as complaints. But each of these can be expressed in a way that doesn't need one to regurgitate memey canned statements and "ironically bad" images.
Face it, you're acting as the very cancer you protest. If you truly do want Holla Forums to improve, begin with your own actions and make it better with each post.

That sounds really good. I've listened to some of the new game music, but it doesn't hit the same notes or vibe that some of the new OST hits. I like the stage themes changing based on the characters though, and there's a few good tracks I really like.

Thanks!

Anyone who plays fighting games knows that short + wide = insane left right ATG mixups, but next to no fuzzy guard. The physics look slow and floaty, moreso than something like Melty Blood, so here are my predictions:

Keepaway game and zoning dominate, IF there are mobile zoners. If the zoning characters are just "I have fireballs that go in three different directions" then the game is going to be rushdown heavy. If the game is rushdown heavy then defensive play dominates due to the lack of corner pressure (no fuzzy guards) and low blocking is always the safest defensive option.

I think this is one of the most fully fleshed out use of motifs in vidya. Good stuff.

And OP, don't let the faggots here represent the 8/v/ community. They're jealous of someone having an actual successful thread. Nice to see a fellow half/vg/ user.

I don't know much about the game, but there are teleports and big ways to re-position, if that changes much. Also I can't comment on how it feels to play, but nothing stands out as strange about the physics to me.
Here's a vid of one character I think is kinda considered to have zoning tools youtu.be/2QUVT6PiVAA

it feels good to know at least one person read what I was posting, thank you

I also could just be wrong about that
most videos I've seen of fighting have been pretty aggressive looking

Teleports don't mean much unless the game has assists. Teleports are easily telegraphed and easy to play around because, unlike natural movement, it will always have startup and active frames (and possibly even recovery frames). MvC3, for example, was a teleport heavy game because teleports were fast, but there were no characters that would aggressively use teleports without having an assist covering their entry.

The difference between mixups and teleports is that once you know how to block the incoming attack off a teleport, you know how to block it.

Could you post them? I've only managed to find the floaty gameplay the other user was talking about.

okay, that sounds sense

Sure, here's some gameplay
ignore the commentator, but these are some of the more skilled beta players going at it youtu.be/57GS2h9xCRs?t=28s
timestamped to skip opening

Game really needs more than 6 characters. They made "Rainbow Dash" sound like a zigger.

I think more are planned, but they wanted to keep it small for launch to really hone their ideas

Damn, just checked and it is a mere 6. I guess a game can work with it, but it probably needs at least double that.


Yo OP at risk of being a hyper fag for going against the spirit of anonymity, I have something amusing to show you regarding the last thread, got some throwaway method by which I could show you?

This thread should be deleted again, more of your bitch tears on /sudo/ would fuel me through the day.

keep on posting without reading anything else

I didn't make the other thread that people are referencing so, I'm not sure if I want it or not, could you elaborate?

I got the impression you didn't, but as you mentioned this being a successful experiment I figured it'd be worth your observation. Just want to keep it relatively on the down-low out of respect for the fellow involved.

sure thing I guess
Here's a burner email you can send it to. Not sure about size limits or whatever.

Acting condescending and pretending you're the voice of reason isn't going to make you or this shill thread any less fucking cancerous
This shit belongs on the fightan general and you belong in the trashchan.

I literally don't care about being the voice of reason, we're all fags you prick. In the end we're all user, and after this thread you'll have no clue if you're ever talking to me ever again. Your impression of me means nothing. All that matters in a thread are your opinions and the facts you bring along with them. Keep up the canned responses.

I sent you an email from my main email

...

hrmm

They have a moveset ready for a brand new character (a goat), they just need more time to work on it, devs said it should be ready for release on May-June, considering how bad they are at estimated time calculations I could say it will be released on July-August


I was the OP in the last thread, shame it got deleted, I have an alternative email
[email protected]
please ignore the memes

NO GOD DAMN IT NO ONE'S LOOKING FORWARD TO YOUR STUPID PONY FIGHTING GAME NOW FUCK OFF

Coming in this thread to call you butthurt

Kill yourself faggot shill

looks like skullgirls except with horses and it's a normal 1v1 fighter not the ridiculous 3v3 shit. idk the asking price but it's probably not worth it. skullgirls was already a regret buy for me despite the really cool characters.

Holla Forums doesn't wanna talk about any videogames, let alone pony nonsense.

However, it's probably gonna be better then most of the absolute trash Capcom and Arksys has shat out over the last year or two. Fighting games now are just a sea of unjustifiable DLC, unfinished bullshit, bad art, and Denuvo cancer.

what's with beast's fury? didn't this get canned? a shame tbh, the concepts look really cool

REMEMBER
This faggot from the FGG is on full antishill mode against Them's Fightin Herds, he is really upset and jelly because his indie fighting game (fetish game about macro-muscular-giant-vore-femdom women) doesn't get any kind of attention/interest, he hates Skullgirls and will talk shit about anything remotely related to Skullgirls because "his game is better"

forums.shoryuken.com/discussion/195215/gigamaidens-a-game-about-way-too-big-anime-ladys

the one thing I found out about this game that kinda gave me a good feeling is this quote from a dev "It’s not about the money, it’s not about the fame, I just want to play something with people and have fun"
whether it's bullshit or not, it's nice to have the idea that someone is making a fighting game for reasons other than "we have to make another fighter guys it's been x months since the last sf release"
It's sorta believable too, seeing the last game was c&d'd and I don't think they were making it for money back then. We'll see how it goes.

I hadn't heard about that, but I like goats. Could b cool

incredible
