Why aren't you playing fighting games, anon?
>>721000303I'm autistic enough for grand strategy but not LITERALLY AUTISTIC enough for fighting games.
>>721000303I got filtered
>>721000303Because my favorite one died
>>721000303Because they are all guessing games at all times which is not fun at all
I do.
>immediate repliesWHY DIDN'T ANY OF YOU MAKE A FIGHTING GAMES THREAD
>>721000303I'm writing job applications.
>>721000592Because I play tekken and nobody wants to talk about tekken
>>721000303I've been trying to get good at alpha 3 again but my hearts not in it
>>721000863You talk about Tekken by bitching about season 2 and worshipping LowTierGod
>>721000863affirmative action 8*
>>721000887just pick dhalsim or acoomer
>>721002117No those are shitter picks. I used to play ryu, rose, or vega. For some reason I've decided to pick up V-Ken. Yes I hate myself, but connecting b+mk to heavy tatsu to d+mk to heavy tatsu to f+hk into heavy shoryu is both funny & very satisfying
>>721000303>Why aren't you playing fighting gamesI'm bad at them.
>>721000303this image was what inspired me to start playing FGs years ago, when these kinds of threads were popular
>>721000303because I was labbing 2XKO and the degeneracy got me kinda too annoyed to continue playing
>>721000303I don't have a joystick

Tag fighters and overly aggressive games get kind of boring.

>>721000472This, Soulcal was the only series I could really get into.
>>721004981Heterosexal game
>>721000303I already posted this in the last thread, but I'm playing Xrd almost every day, and also began playing a lot of Rumble Roses since yesterday, if that counts.
>>721005661keep me updated bro!!!
>>721005219>Motions have been standardized down to quarter circle, half circle, and DP >Almost every fighting game released after 2020 has an option to forgo motions entirely>6 buttons barely cut it anymore which means even 8 button set ups need extra buttons to comfortably bind every function + macros (dash/multi-button actions)Care to tell me how they're not?
>>721003428>play guilty gear
>>721000303I'm taking a break from them. I mostly play KOF '98.>>721001042I should give this a try at some point. Midler and Rubber Soul seem interesting.

>tfw broke my keyboard because of mashing (i play character that has mash grabs and mashing makes specials betterer) what i do now
>>721007202Can't you buy another one for cheap?
>>721007372it was laptops keyboard
>>721000303>Every SF game besides SF3 and SF6 is dead>SF6 is shit>I'm too much of a retard to play any other fg I've been interested inMaybe I should try Strive
>>721007538Wait, you can't plug in a USB keyboard and use that? Laptops don't work that way?
I have 100h+ in SF6 and never made it out of silverIt's ok to admit when you're not made for some things
>>721007372>Buying a cheap keyboard for fighting gamesEnjoy your ghosting
>>721007574Strive coming from 3S is going to feel weird That said, it has more defensive mechanics than SF6 and you're unironically not eating as much shit on block/wakeup
>>721000480Is there a single competitive genre that isn't centered around reading your opponent and predicting what they will do or baiting them into making a mistake.Rhythm games, I guess?
new strive patch made me actually like the game but I also sort of fear it's going to die to 2xko or marvel so I'm not entirely sure if I want to dive into learning aba or just dick around on ky and the choice paralysis just has me playing other shit
>>721000303I played every single alive fighting game enough to make me jaded about the genre, the ones I actually like and have fun playing are dead>>721007938If you spend a 100h without trying to practice it's the same as spending 20h playing and practicing
AH3LMSS is a much better DBZ simulator than FighterZ, and I'm tired of pretending it's not. Show me a SINGLE game with better air movement or air neutral. You fucking can't.
>>721009587melty :)king of fighters :)
>>721009452Strive in a worse state than it is now didn't die to SF6 getting released, you'll be fine.
>>721009956I think my concern is that strive/marvel(any maybe 2xk0?) playerbases overlap far more than strive/sf6
>>721009452>new strive patch made me actually like the game but I also sort of fear it's going to die to 2xko or marvel 2XKO doesn't play any similar at allTokon still seems different enoughIt's also getting a big 2.0 update, the only thing we know so far is we're getting Jam and Robo-Kyhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=98NQzzjXnxc>I'm not entirely sure if I want to dive into learning aba or just dick around on ky and the choice paralysis just has me playing other shitABA is some real fucking bullshit right now, I don't know why people don't complain more about this bitch
>>721008462>Strive coming from 3S is going to feel weirdEvery game coming from 3s feels weird to me, honestly. I'm totally SF brained and the focus on air movement in a lot of other games doesn't make a lot of sense to me. Long in-air combos also break my brain. It's why I haven't been able to get into the other GG games at all, and I've bounced off of stuff like Blazblue CF and even Uni2. My interest in Strive comes purely from it actually having players online and seemingly being more grounded (literally) and simpler than the other GGs.
>>721000303I want to, but no game interests me anymore. I've played>BBCF>+R>Xrd>Strive>Both Granblues>KOFXV>CoTW>KoF 2002 UM>3S>SF6>T7>Samsho>Battle for the Grid>Alpha 2/3>MK1>UNICLR>Melty Blood Lumina>DNF DuelAnd it's not as if I disliked all of these games. BBCF and GG games I enjoyed, but I did not like a single character enough to want to stick with the game. Guess I'll try Tekken 8 later this year.
>>721010234>It's also getting a big 2.0 updatehonestly this is probably a good enough reason for me to keep playing, as long as arcsys continues to support it that's fine by meI may even like marvel more anyway who knows
>>721010081If anything you have it backwards, people who are still playing Strive so long after launch are not the kind to jump ship to crazy tag fighters. Either way you need to chill out with the FOMO, if you like Strive just play it. It's one of the biggest fighting games currently, it'll be active for a long while.
>>721010305bro, your melty blood アクトレズアゲイン codice attuale?
>>721010305you already asked that in previous threads and ignored all suggestions
i always reach a point where my brain simply can't keep up
>>721010984stop playing anime fighters
i got burnt out and needed to chill
>>721011159see >>721011078
Reminder that PalMod exists
>>721010235Yeah the average air game in Strive is weaker than usual anime games, but trying to anti-air a good Chipp/Millia player is still very hard because they can alter their trajectory a lot
>>721007202characters that play like this?
>>721011653Eww
>>721013171
>>721013241i knew it
>>721010937No, I didn't. This is the first FG thread I've been in for a month
>>721013754ok try blazblue then friend :)
>>721009587I disagree, simply because, if you've seen DBZ animated, it's too fast for Arcana Heart to match. This is why ArcSys instead changed those mechanics from 'slow enough for players to understand but fast enough to be anime' to 'Players want the DBZ teleports, turn dragon rush into a single press that performs a full instant animation'.In terms of games, AH3LMSS is probably better, but DBZ obfuscates that by mimicking the speed and style of the show it's based off of. Even BT3 is better, because they still have the dragon rushes, *teleports behind you* button and mashes. Not sure why you'd want AH3 to be the definitive DBZ sim either.
I've been playing a lot of +R. Just got off after a few sets of an anji mirror in the open lobby. funny stuff happens when both players try to bait autoguard in neutral at the same time. I also want to play a bit of BBCF soon but the guys I run sets with have Xrd on the mind, so I guess im learning Millia.
>>721010305Sounds more like you don't know how to stick with a game or character. Do you have any guys to play with consistently? What did you specifically like about CF and GG?
>>721000303I am, currently playing Tekken 3
>>721009232wrong answer, the true one is classic tetris, because autists play it like a competitive game when it's two single player games on one screen
>>721017070I miss my goat Jonas...
>>721014118Bro, the first game on my list...
>>721017932okay now launch the game and play it
>>721010081I think fighting game playerbase poaching is mostly a myth. GBFVR didn't dent Strives playerbase and that was accidentally free for the first month. The only thing that seems to kill a game with near certainty is a sequel.
>>721010305bingbangbeat revolve
I get an angry reply everytime I post a webm of under night so let's see how long it takes for one.
>>721017980When they add a character I like
Daisuke deserves to have his balls dragged through cheese grater for what he did to GG franchise.
It sucks that the only fighting game I truly loved was Tekken 7 up to season 3ish. Tekken 8 is ass and while I know T7 still has a playerbase that fucking bitch Kuni has assassinated all desire to play it.
>>721000303They turned all of them into dogshit and I'm tired of playing against same people in the games I like. So I stopped.
>>721018929Es is already in game though
tekken 8 is so busted right now it's not funAnd I'm not willing to learn another game
>>721019707tekkenbabs are the biggest battered housewifes ever
>>721019965Name a single other 3D fighting game that passes the 3am test. Just one.
Is it just me or is Strive's ranked dogshit? I keep getting connection errors while sitting in the queues even though my actual match connection is fine. I have the same shit happen in GB but with random connection error popups during the match even though I can still play fine after mashing them away.
>>721020060virtua fighter and soul calibur :)
>>721020076it has nothing to do with the mode, arcsys is just incapable of having stable servers
>>721020206lol
>>721020259>tekken 8 is so shit sniff sniff bohoo ;-(>GEGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG DID YOU REALLY TOLD ME TO PLAY SOMETHING ELSE GEGGGGGGGG ITS SHIT!!1 LOL! LMAO! now hold this tracking armored mid that is +8
>>721020208I mean I guess, I was just wondering if it was the actual mode since Tower is still fine. I know it's not what I play on since SF6 is completely fine. Honestly not that bothered by it since half the people I play in Strive act like complete fags.
>>721020334I was laughing because those games are dead as fuck. Forget finding someone to play you at 3am on a Tuesday. Even at prime time online for VF is deader than your parents hopes for you.
>>721020076I get the occasional shitter playing the game in slideshow mode on garbage hardware but nothing worse than how tower worked
>>721000303Several reasons.It's hard to play them with friends, you can only 1v1 them and one at a time. It's only fun when you have similar skill levels which is rarely the case.Playing alone feels pointless. There is nothing to unlock, no new content dropping, no new story to see or new things to explore. At best i can aim to raise my online rank in ranked matches, but it gets boring and repetitive fast.And i say all this as someone who actually likes fighting games and have been playing them on and off for 10+ years.Despite liking the gameplay, i generally much prefer playing different single player games or sink more hours into an online game with more carrots to chase.
>>721020076Legitimately works on my machine. A dramatic improvement from tower.
>>721020674More games need to have a filter for faggots playing on shit hardware and can't get a stable framerate. Remember playing Tekken and got this absolute fag stealing a win from me with the game playing like it was at fucking 3fps with how hard it was slideshowing and I ended up just plugging.
>>721019236>tiny character with big weaponI hate that archetype
>>721018878UNI 2 should have had crossplay. It angers me that it didn't. The game could use a help in unifying the already small playerbases
>>721021320funniest shit ever desu
>>721000303I'm on a now running 3 month break and to be honest I've never played so many games in such a short period. I will go back to fightans once something rekindles my love, like an update that adds in better lobbies for concerto so you don't need to use discord or something.
>>721020076It's only real issue is that you connect to the same person repeatedly, but they've at least said they're addressing that. Also, it's not an issue necessarily, but the option to cancel a match is completely pointless because the kinds of people that regularly play on bad connections would never do it anyway. It's a nice thought though.
>>721022065do you really thing people will play melty solo without discord in open lobbies if concerto would get updated? get real nigger all french bread games started the discord fighter meme and all melty and uni players are EXPECTED to use discord because thats how it always been
>>721022290>the kinds of people that regularly play on bad connections would never do it anyway.typically they accept it once they start getting clowned on hard enough
>>721000303But I'm playing GBVSR rite now
how often do you ragequit? how do you react people plugging on you?
>>721022973>YuelI don't like you.
>>721023023I don't ragequit but I go>hehWhen my opponent does.Feels even better than winning regularly, cuz you can just imagine your opponent raging and screaming from across the screen.
>>721005984The need for 6+ buttons is something that benefits sticks and hitboxes, not gamepads.Double-inputs on arcade buttons are infinitely easier and the buttons you need press can be much more vast than the possible combinations on a gamepad's face buttons.If the fighting game can not be played with four buttons, if the macros that fill out 5-8 buttons are pretty much "mandatory", it's going to be worse on a pad.2XKO is shit on a gamepad because eight buttons (six actual buttons and then two macros for L+H and M+H) are absolutely necessary.
>>721023179Yes you do.
>>721023910I'LL KILL YOUUUUUU
>>721021361crossplay is hard and costly as fuck to implement because of snoy and microshart and french bread is unironicaly small indie company that doesnt have money so thats too bad nigga
>>721020414>Tower is still finetower has had the connection errors since the game came out
>>721024079Not for me at least. In the time it takes for Ranked to give me three matches I can get ten from Tower.
>>7210235322XKO is shit on literally every controller.
>>721000303I'm not good at them and I don't have a good internet connectionAlso why the fuck do you care
>>721000303Because I really only like Granblue but I don't talk about it on /v/ because most fighting players don't seem to like that game.
>>721024295What do you mean, /v/ is the only place that shills that autocombo based shit ass game
>>721024295from my perspective granblue seems to be the most "i don't mind it" game on the market right now.
>>721024394>autocomboRetardo
man I wish there's a good mecha fighting game.YES I KNOW ABOUT GUNDAM VS WHY DONT THEY JUST PORT IT THESE FUCKING ASSHOLES PORT IT YOU FUCKING FUCKERS AHHHHHHHHH
>>721023532And to emphasize, Street Fighter may have six buttons, but its default button layout and any system mechanics are optimized to give pad users a good feel.Pad users have zero need to rely on setting up a macro on the other free buttons with the default button config. Any two-button combination has a straightforward and intuitive array for your thumb or thumb & index finger. Your thumb can hit both lights or both mediums. Two fingers for both heavies. Any two punches or any two kicks can be done with thumb and finger. And your left thumb can be dedicated to motion, using the left shoulder buttons is optional.SF has basically been pushing the limit on total possible inputs that feel comfortable on a pad for its control scheme since SF4.
>>721024295get bullied nerd
>>721024063
>>721024448>Light light light into motion woah such nice combos, but wait you can fit an extra light autocombo in the corner and a super! How complex!
>>721024715>doesn't know what an autocombo is
>>721024693AEEEEIIIII
whats the latest version of uni?
>>721025008tuah
>>721024295it's ok, didn't hold my interest enough to get into the game but I see why people like itMain issue is I absolutely hate triple attack as a concept because I don't like proximity normals (cS/fS in GG is fine)
>>721024295
>>721025086I really just like the character art. Melty and Uni get kinda sorta close but there's something about Granblue characters that are just way more attractive and sensual.
>>721025086I hate Triple Attack too, but I don't mind proximity normals, I just thought it was extremely gay that every button leads into the same string. If you must have a system like that I'd rather it be like P4U where the autocombo is just on 5A, that makes the followup string feel like an interesting extra thing you can do with 5A specifically, the way it is in Granblue just makes combo routes and blockstrings feel homogenized, or that's how it felt in what I played of it.
>>721000303i do but these games require more effort and determination than other games especially for a newb like me and most of the time i just gravitate to some game that i can instantly pick up and playits really weird because when i do find the motivation/discipline to lauch the game i quickly start having the time of my life, laughing out loud at the dumb shit I or my opponent does, i don't rage at them like i do at other games and its generally a good ass time for mewhat the fuck is wrong with me
>sensualI'm calling the cops
>>721025602>8kb potatoYou cannot get any smaller
>>721025468the man with no tastegrubble aesthetics is like you would feed all jrpgs to ai and ask it to shit out something
>>721023023>how often do you ragequitevery time how do you react people plugging on you?idk i never got a dude to rq on me
>>721000303>want to play a fighting game again>My options are tranny fighter, tranny fighter, tranny fighter or granblueits not fair man

I looked into my scrying orb to see what the future of the FGC held and this image was all I could find.
>>721026585In reality you have more choices, but you are too much of a casual bitch to play a classic on fightcade.
>>721026741What the fuck went wrong >>721026807it has some hot characters tho
>>721026741lmao the absolute state of fighting games
>>721026859>it has some censored cero B rating charactersftfy
>>721025468Granblue's characters are from a gacha so they HAVE to be eyecatching to get people to roll for them.
>>721025008UNI2
But I am. I'm doing World Tour mode in SF6.>but why the fuck would you do that?Because I want Alex's moves on my character come next spring that's the fuck why.Also playing VF5 REVO on PC, but taking a break for now after doing the beta over the weekend.
>>721027917okay whats with the evo logo behind the combo counter?
>>721028053its to remind you uni2 got dropped from evo to make room for nen impact
>>721028053how many times you can otg
>>721027953i cant wait to see alex's signature move "drive rush jab" in street fighter six
>>721026847Anon I would like to play games with actual multiplayber presence because I dont like annoying my friends everytime I want to play something more niche. Dont blame me that fighters die so fucking fast.
>>721005905Played a dozen matches of Rumble Roses this evening with a freind, it was really fun. Great game overall in my opinion, just be sure to play the undub.
>>721028053Shows you how many properties you have left (ground bounce, hard knockdown, wallbounce)
>>721000303fighting games are a genre for people with friends and i have no friends
>>721028712uhh...you dont get to bring friends
>>721028712I definitely did not have friends when I got into my fighting game. But I got good enough that people became friends with me.
>play Tekken since Tekken 3>played it pretty casually so my fundamentals are shit. I never paid attention to wake up options for example and just mashed buttons to get up >take it more seriously recently>too nervous to play ranked so I just spend hours messing around practice mode>decide to finally suck it up and play ranked and see how high I can climb>make it to TenryuI was getting knowledge checked at this point so I think it’s my ceiling for now.
Anyone else left hard start to hurt when playing games with heavy directional inputs like Strive? Is my age finally catching up to me?
>>721029054the hrt is rotting your bones
>>721000303Are MOBAs a fighting game?
>>721029567No, Patrick. MOBAs aren't fighting games...
>>721029054if you play on hitbox, which I'm sure you do, then that's pretty common. I have someone at my local who has a more ergonomic one that kind splits down the middle
>>721029637...
>>721029054Depends on your peripheral.When I was using xbone and 8bitdo ultimate controllers, both the dpad and analog stick caused soreness in my metacarprals after an hour. Even their face buttons caused soreness in my right thumb as well.The same even happened when I tried a Dualshock 5 controller.But then I switched over to a PS4-shaped controller and I've been able to play all day without a single ache.
>>721029054
>>721029779No, Smash isn't a fighting game either.
>>721029826I use the PS5 controller. I have a PS4 controller and think it’s worse because it feels clunky to me. I think the PS3 controller is really where they peaked.
>>721029903
>>721029054never had an issue with Strive but 2XKO's uncomfortable to play for my right hand due to having 6 buttons while SF6 doesn't because it's slower paced
>>721030079You might want to get a bigger controller then. Last time I held a playstation controller in my hands, it felt like it was kid-sized. And I don't have particularly large hands.
>>721025086Yeah, proximity normals are dumb. Most fighters seem to have them for the sake of having them, despite already having a bunch of normals that are fucking useless, and they have nebulous proximities that make you uncertain if you'll get close or far, or you basically need to be point blank to get the close version.GG limiting it to only Slash is good. Even if you are too far, you still have some gatlings to rely on in the case of uncertainty.
>>721030079>>721030550I'm not sure if I live in an alternate universe or what but I seem to have the opposite feeling with the PS pads where the PS3 one feels way smaller compared to the 4 and 5, Can't stand the 5pad since not only does it have stick drift but the dpad itself just feels worse compared to the 4 pad.
>>721030624>Most fighters seem to have them for the sake of having them, despite already having a bunch of normals that are fucking uselessI only felt that for Street Fighter
which fighting game has ryu from streets
>>721031305smash
>>721030768No I prefer PS3 controllers because I feel like they’re smaller too. I think the more accurate word is thin than small. It doesn’t feel as thick and chunky as the 4 or the 5.

>>721033505I've played it partially through the RPCS3 emulator. I'd say it's fun, gimmicky as all hell, being a grounded assist fighter BUT it also has an emotion system that can buff or debuff your character. And yet it's a really fun simpler game by Examu.
>>721033775uh
