I don't like fighting games.Which fighting should I play?
>>720400646Made for SEX
>>720400646Currently nothing but I want to get back. I know I'll get my ass kicked but whatever
>>720406054You really think I'm going to read your post with an image like that attached?It's better than anything you have to say
>>720400646everything has already been said. its surprisingly fun, but removing command inputs was a mistake, having 2 special buttons makes it even harder to do the special that you want. its very confusing, specially since you pilot 2 characters at once
>>720406324That's fine anon, you can enjoy the pretty pictures too!
>>720407718
>>720408453I love her new outfit, but the classic one is so iconic
>>720400646>What Fighting Games are you playing currentlyGranblue Fantasy VersusRising It's the only recent (made in this decade) fighting game I have gotten into. I enjoy occasionally playing Strive but I never bothered to actually learning it.
Always ignore Granblue player posts.They are worth less than dirt.
>>720412417What players should get attention then?
I played REVO World Tour for 45 minutes, did not win a single match, and experienced teleporting Akira and that is probably enough for at least another 6 months.
How active is CvS2 in the collection nowadays?
I actually like 2xko but man that roster sucks
>>720412620>49 in game :)))
>>720412417Seethe
>>720400646Started playing SF6 not long ago cause of Mai wife, already plat 2 for now. I love her so much bwos, I just bullied an Akuma.
>had a shit day so decided to hop on SF6 as Gief for some fun>go up against a Cammy playing like a fucking Ryu (constant jump-ins and not even using air spikes or half her fucking moves aside from ground spike>completely dumpster her only for the fag playing to plugAbsolute losers.
where is the ryona
>>720413726I'm going to SPD your wife into my nuts.
>>720413851On the lobbies, come fight me
>>720400646that pit is in dire need of a tongue bath
>>720400646having fun playing the VF5 betaunsurprisingly, it's way better than T8 and T7
>>720414378Bro is stuck in the past
>>720414556no sane human being will think tekken 8 is better than virtua fighter 5, I'd go as far as to say even normalfags would agree
>>720414665Vrtua farter 5 beta was in like January are you fucking stuck in the groundhog day or something it's September now
>>720414748there's a new beta for the new version with crossplay and a new singleplayer mode (which is not available in the beta but I digress)
>>720400646where's the HD version?
https://youtu.be/et2uNmDHbEA?si=DBNpDjiCBBmi7405Is (You)r character on this list???
Mai has by far the best model in Street Fighter 6.
>>720417536That is an extremely low barShe has the only good model in SF6
>>720417536Capcom making more sexy Mai than DOA is impressive. If they have to power to do this why would they make the other SF6 characters look like caricatures
>>720405483
>>720418332I can only assume they were still getting the hang of how to make Street Fighter characters in their meme engine and now they are too proud to fix them.Tasteless retards WILL tell you the other girls look good too anyway so there's that too.
>>720417829It's just not as affected by the weird lighting.
>>720402849How does that work thoI am curious
>>720418698I just think SNK put their foot down and made sure Capcom didn't butcher Mai's design the same way they did for everyone else. Especially Terry. Good lord.
>>720418841>Especially Terry.kekHoly fuck man, he really got screwed.
>>720418698I think only Chunners looks good before Mai.
>>720412729That's far more people than are Looking to Play on Fightcade. I'm really looking for someone who's actually played who can tell me if it takes a long time to get matches or not, so if you're just gonna be a chartposting retard, go ahead and fuck off for me.
>>7204006462xko Twitch viewers seems awfully low. This doesn't look good for a F2P game
>>720400646I only get my info of fighting games from pic related troll channels but I'm kind of tempted to try out SF6. How easy is it to unlock DLC characters?
>>720419057Not that guy but there is no reason to think the Collection, any of the collections will have an active player base because Capcom refused to play for crossplay. Even with crossplay, the player base would be split across different games, but without it it's split between games AND between 3 platforms. It is surely fucking dead.
>>720419257Nobody, and I mean nobody is playing any other games in that collection online.
>2XKOLooks like cheap trash, did they had a budget limit or something?
>>720400646tried to get back to sf6 but the matchmaking in my region takes literal hoursthis is probably why only east Asians and north Americans play these games
2xko already feels old and stale 9 characters for a tag fighter is just unacceptable
>>720419167
>>720421172ok nevermind I won't bother then
I play SF6, it's my first fighting game. Climbing Gold as Manon now, but I'm easily tilted, not sure how to handle the tilt so I avoid playing sometimes and it bothers me.
>>720420154maybe onlineyou need to find locals who are learning/playingthat's how it is always wasonline matches are modern convenience
>>720419167yeah you gotta buy em. if you just want one character i think it's only ~5 bucks worth of retard coins or something like that? i forget.
>>720419257I don't have the same definition of "active" as the average FG tard who thinks raw numbers are all that reflects the life of a game. There could be one other nigga on; if he's in the matchup queue, it ain't dead.
>>720422119Go ahead and buy it then.
>>720419078People don't really wanna watch a game they can't play and all the nonfgc people that streamed it day one found it too hard and left, so 2xko has actually failed at what it set out to do, so yes it's a bad sign
Anyone want to play some +R?
>>720425824Cannon bros are retarded for making a tag fighter. Literally the niche of a niche genre. Normies already don't want to play fighting games because there are literal thousands of games that can be played without labbing.
>>720421904alright next sale I'll pick it up and spend maybe like a month seriously learning. I'm genuinely curious to see if LTG is really that shit.
>>720400646Is there a higher quality of this?>>720413956I swear, I spend more and more time trying to figure out if images are AI made or not these days, instead of actually enjoying them for what they are.
>>720400646Currently trying to get decent at Granblue with Zeta. I like her a lot.
>>720418742I got the newest street fighter, my first time playing a SF game, just to play as Juri/have her as a mentor
>>7204279091. yes he really is that bad2. just learn the character's moves and fuck around. as long as you know how to punish you can stomp on shitters in ranked pretty easily
>>720400646why did they have to make her have a massive crush on some blonde long haired faggot who isnt even interested?
Dead or alive xtreme venus vacation. I have to fight the urge to jerk off so it's 100% a fighting game.
Too many games interest me and it's easier to stick with what I know. It's easy to translate 2D fighters to other 2D fighters, but wanting to learn DOA, not knowing which one to play, with no one else to learn with and a minimal online scene kills my hype to learn proper.
still playin doa
I really want to learn Darkstalkers 3 but everybody I match with has like 8000 hours on the game, the only fighter I can play and enjoy is SF6 cause I can find other noobs, and DOA5 cause it has fun singleplayer modes.
>>720428484 Yeah that tracks. Once you get some muscle memory goin’ and stop second guessing every move, most ranked players just crumble trying to mash their way out of any pressure. The bar to not look like a bot is low. Also LTG’s like a case study in how not to play or act, so it’s kinda fun dissecting his gameplay like a monkey at a typewriter.
>what did you do today on this day of our lord 11 of 9?nothin reallyhttps://files.catbox.moe/gjwac4.wav
>>720417476No, but two characters I play that do have supers a million times lamer than any of these are Answer's 236236K in Xrd and Leo's Rage Art in Tekken 8, though I think pretty much every Rage Art is bad in Tekken 8 Leo's is on the lower end still.
>>720400646SF6 will never not lok like shit lmao
Have a Cutebuki bump!
>>720430078Me too. Tag Survival is by far the most fun offline mode in a fightan game. Especially when there are so many costumes to unlock
>>720435267hello ibuki-anon! how are ya?
>>720436620Good! Even if a bit tired since I did not get that much sleep, randomly just woke up *sigh*
>>720436823what's keeping you up? do you know?
>>720436881Who knows.. Might be the weather, I think. Or just random noises waking me up.
Started playing Fightcade 2 days ago, bit of 3rd Strike ("Maining" Ken and playing a bit of Ibuki/Oro/Twelve), it's nice.Any other games I should check out on there?
>>720436967you sound a little on edge... you might need some stress relief or something
>>720437075Oh definitely. Anything in mind?
No gay shit
>>720437191i think you should check the general on the other board
>>720400646I've been playing Granblue since season 2 dropped in February. This has been the most I've ever put time into a fighting game since since Street Fighter IV.I had zero expectations for this dude until I impulse bought him. He's such a goddamn retarded neanderthal that deals vermillions of damage off both his bullshit overheads and lows, I love it.
>>720400646Grinding Strive ranked
>>720400646she's so good
You guys are remedial
>>720417476>he put carnage scissors head crush and tanden engine on that list Audacity of this beaner
I only play street fighter iii 3rd strike and super smash brothers melee for the nintendo gamecube
I dont play fighting games, but am in love with strong fit flexible fighting girls!
what fightan game has the best grab/grappling animations
>>720438461soul caliber 3
>>720418689No panties?
>>720437338>He's such a goddamn retarded neanderthal that deals vermillions of damage off both his bullshit overheads and lows, I love it.Arcsys can't help themselves from putting this archetype in each of their games
>>720400646>Also, anyone tried 2XKO? How is it?I'm bad at fighting games, to put it lightly, but it seems fine. I'm getting my ass beat because I don't know SHIT about how to play it, but I'm slowly picking up manual combos (they have the Pulse system a-la P4A to auto-combo, but I don't feel like using it).
>>720439438good colors
>>720439438Slayer (at least before Strive) had janky neutral and spent a lot of time fishing for counter hits. When he DID land a hit confirm, you still had to land his links, which filtered a lot of new players.Now I don't know what happened with Strive, but it seems all of that went out the window and carried onto Wilnas. At least Wilnas really struggles against zoning. Dude cannot handle low fireballs and multiple projectiles specials. His defense will also become significantly worse when his meterless DP is inevitably removed.
Typical Slayernigga acting like he works hard after doing nothing in neutral other than FB Dandy Step and random 6Ps.
>ME OWN FOOKIN SON AN MODERN USER
>>720440497I'm not saying he works hard, but he's infinitely easier than he used to be. Shitters often couldn't time his links and went back to playing basic gattling characters.
>>720440154Slayer's neutral in Strive is still kinda dumpy, your only options are various ways of launching yourself at your opponentHe will have a bad time against good zoning, but typically this just builds him 50 meter and makes you eat extra shit the second he gets a single hit inThe one exeption imo is Dizzy, because Ice Field completely prevents him from playing the game at allMost zoning also leads to very little damage (unless you use Wild Assault, or you're playing Ramlethal and you can kill someone from hitting the tip of your fS), you're better off just fucking killing him and exploiting his lack of reversal with looping oki than playing keep away
>>720440694He definitely is easier now, but so is everybody, but he was never a shitterproof character, more than that, I'd say he's famously a complete gorilla. Every usage rate I've seen for Xrd has him near the top and anecdotally, he's easily in the top 3 characters I've come across most in +R. He is obviously still more difficult than he used to be because Strive's an easier game and even the easiest character in +R is fairly tough, but he absolutely is the same kind of character relative to the overall difficulty of the game in +R, Xrd and Strive. It's just that even +R's gorillas are harder than a lot of Strive characters because of the overall difficulty of each game. HOS and Sol would be the easiest characters to pick up in +R in my opinion and they both have a higher skill floor than all but maybe the 1-star characters in Strive, not even getting into the skill ceilings.
>>720400646>cant buy Mai standalone>extremely expensive and forced to buy a whole ass packFuck these niggers, i wanted to give Crapcom some bit of money like 5-8 bucks for Mai but they instead wont get another cent.
>>720441106You can buy it individually I believe Just have to get those 350 coins first via steam then you can purchase
>>720442572this game could be fun if it was played by human beings instead of arakune or carl mains
>>720442946Should've signed the petition chud
What about other Mai
>>720405483With Andy you mean? True.>>720400646KoF 97, 98, 99, 2000, 2002 (occasionally other less populated ones as well)CvS2and especially Darkstalkers, that game is so satisfying to play. Also few Pakistanis/etc on Fightcade so you can fight actual people with life, like Europeans and Americans.I want to play all fighting games, they're so beautiful and fun. I just wish more Europeans used Fightcade that's why I'll keep shilling it till my last breath.
B. Jenet clears Mai
Are those games worth getting into?>Persona 4 Arena>Darkstalkers series>Blazblue>Guilty Gear>Smash Ultimate/Melee/Project>Sailor Moon Snes>Jojo Fighting games>FOTS Fighting game>Shrek Superslam>SF 3rd Strike>KOF/Garou>Bloody Roar>Night Under-Birth>Touhou Fighters>Doujin Fighters (Umineko, Asuka 120%, Arcana Hearts, etc)

>>720403312King of Fighters and Smash. FUCK modern SNK.
>>720418332>Than DoA is impressiveBro, DoA hasn't been impressive since 3. And now the fucking series is just a fucking gacha shitter thing. They shouldn't have fucked with Itagaki and now both Ninja Gaiden and DoA are fucking dead.
Which fighting games girls would you like to see get BLACKED?
>>720440961Ky, Jam, and Pot are easier than Sol. Sure, you can do strings into 25% meter supers, but Sol is an entirely different beast once he starts using his character specific sidewinder combos.
>>720445880That's why I said not getting into the skill ceiling. There's a lot to learn with Sol but he's not hard to just pick up. Saying he's hard because of Sidewinder combos is like saying HOS is hard because of recharge combos, and both of those things are true in a sense, but it doesn't factor into the difficulty of just picking up the character and playing at a basic level.
>>720445382DoA: literally all of themSF: Cammy, Karin, MakotoMK: Cassie, Sonya, SindelSC: Cassandra, Sophitia, Ivy, Taki, TiraKoF: B. Jenet, Blue Mary, MaiTekken: Nina, Asuka & Lili (as a pair)DBFZ: 182XKO: Jinx, AhriEvil Zone: Erel, Ihadulca
>>720446127The issue is that you can do a lot more with base Ky, Jam, Pot, HOS, and Argably A.B.A. than you can with Sol. He's kinda limited in gen 2 without sidewinder.Crazy to realize that May is so difficult in this game
>>720446864I don't think so really, I feel like they gave him such an easy high damage combo with FB Tyrant Rave specifically to avoid this and it works fine. Obviously you'll still be far from playing optimally, but I don't think a new Sol player would feel like they're playing a gimped character just because they can't do Sidewinder combos, and I've seen plenty of new players that just go for something into FB Tyrant Rave personally. It's not hard to get a feel for his neutral or pressure either.I still think there are other characters that are arguably easier than him, but if I were ordering together +R characters based on how easy they are just to get started, Sol would go in with the likes of Jam, ABA and HOS.
Where are the 2xko shills

I got to master with EX Narmaya
how come you never use her cotw model
>>720442946i hardly ever get to fight thosealways with susanoohs and terumis
>>720455829I wish Ex Djeeta wasn't so fucking awful compared to normal Djeeta (who feels so gimped nowadays after they took away her wall easier wall bounce combo, meanwhile characters like Sandalphon and Wilnas get to do the same stuff even easier because Arcsys is gay for men.)P.S: Add my wife Catura into the game
>>720452893Fuzzy and pray
>>720456945I was almost softening my stance to never play that game again until finding this out. I mean yeah in a vacuum Jeeter taking you to pound town from round start was stupid but the whole game is like that and she barely had anything else going for her.
>>720458526It genuinely feels like they just forgot about her besides making her unique more of a mechanic and slightly better
>>720455829I really hope Strive 2.0 includes EX characters, I love the idea but I don't play Granblue

>>720463609Bro, im not complaining I'm actually just asking that this is the style of how VF plays? I haven't fully dived into it yet. I'm new to VF and just wanting to understand the design of VF.

i've never liked street fighter, but god damn, i'm considering getting it just for mai
>>720466819I haven't played it and I'm a scrub but it looks like they just buffed everyone (to varying degrees) which sounds like a mess

Mai is for hypno
>>720400646What fighting game should i pick up? i tried gg strive but the whole tranny thing is unnerving. SF 6 graphics look awful and 2xko is a 2v2 which seems dumb. What are other anons doing? Just go with SF6?
>>720464918We still do, yes.They're Friday-Saturday now because I'm really busy on Mondays so Sundays are just unviable.>>720469528Sometimes keeping the thread bumped is less important than just playing matches.

>>720467179hmmm is GG redeemed then? im assuming it would be next game they release which with the Saudi buyout of evo might be faster than excepted. >>720469745i wouldnt mind really but since im new i would need equivalent skilled players to train with so the game needs to have enough players to do that.
>>720469702Is it still the one super good guy who beats up everyone or are there new people
>>720469617There is no good fighting game if you are looking at new/current ones. You have to go back like 10 years at least to find good ones.
>>720470138That does seem to be the conclusion i had reached. Give me an old FG recommendation. I can pick it up at some point.
I'm playing the "world tour story mode" of Street Fighter 6, mostly grinding character XP to unlock costumes and artwork but also actually playing the story. It's a really bad theme park ride but I'm almost done.
>>720470138kof15 was good
>>720470097Almost everyone still who joins up is S-rank and above and there have not been new-new people.
i just got raped in a fighting game
>>720470589Ronaldo was just messing with you.
>>720470482UNI any fun? I have the exe cl-r one. Got like an hour on and it was fun.
>>720470482Maybe I should pass then
>>720470783you will become this poster >>720470589 after one match
>>720470589ay dios mio, thanks for the confidence boost
>>720471094yeah i figured. I also liked blazblue CF but i think like 10 people play it.
>>720470783I think it's in the middle ground of anime fighters in terms of difficulty and enjoyment. Not "too" difficult and dense with crazy mechanics and potential interactions like Blazblue but not as simple as things like Granblue or DNF.It's in a comfortable zone for me and there isn't another fighting game out right now that I'd rather be playing. But I'm also a weird guy who likes the story and really likes the "city at night" urban fantasy aesthetic.>>720471174Blazblue is actually in a pretty good spot last I checked. Beginner player rooms and really good player rooms are up most of the time.
>>720470932Yeah that's one of the reasons I don't go around advertising UNI around because I can't sandbag hard enough nor do I want to intimidate beginners.We used to be able to back when we all started in 2017-2018 but it's obviously a lot tougher nowadays with the amount of legacy knowledge.
>>720471372>likes the "city at night" urban fantasy aesthetic.i liked it as well for the bit i saw it. There are multiple UNI, which one is the one i should go for. I own only cl-r right now. Are one of the others better?
>>720471781CLR is only one version behind the latest one and it has everything and more than the 2 versions before it.UNI2 is the one everyone is playing.
blud really said melty from temu has original and cool aesthetic that has been never done before

>>720472632
does Mai have a costume mod like this?
>>720474726the skindentation really sells it
>>720474587If you care about the story at all, I'll warn you that there's no 10 hour VN mode yet for 2.
>>720474976i dont know anything about the story so il have to start at earlier games or piece it together from stuff.
>>720473965She looks like what a street artist would draw if a middle aged Chinese woman walked up to him
>>720400646I play SF6 as Mai Shiranui
>yoo hop on fighting games they are so fun>the fun in question
>>720475314[st] and CLR have the same story mode which acts as a big prologue. Then there's the arcade mode in either games which are the same.UNI2 has its separate arcade stories but no big prologue to explicitly explain what happened between the games.
>tried out Arcana Heart recently at a tournament>REALLY enjoy the feel of the game and its systems, fits like a glove>have to grind GGST ranked instead>realize I will never get the chance to fully invest myself in the game due to lack of activitySure, I could go the discord route but at that point I dunno if it's worth dropping all the other series just to get good at a series I can't even find casuals at tournaments for.
>>720477180You could host games here, some people have shown some interest in it. I personally seem to have scared like 2 people away because I know a BnB. As long as you don't skip the intros the connections have been tolerable on NA.
>>720477569Hmm, I just might give your suggestion a whirl whenever it's on sale. I really would like to play it offline, thoughverbeit, but that time has passed, I guess ...
>>720476808try that on my green giant
>>720477180>GGST ranked insteadI mean GGST is kind of dying too isnt it? Or is it bigger than it seems on console? Steam peaked at like 3k players.
dead tranny filled genre
>>720479405No. Its biggest lulls are like 1200-1500 daily, not including consoles, and its not even going through one of those lulls at the moment seeing as Ranked got a decent amount of people back to it. It gets more like 2000+ normally now. It's not up there with Tekken and SF6, but even a fighting game that regularly got 500 players would be good by the genre's standards, nevermind regularly being in the thousands.
remedial yolo mashing genre
>>720479897oh thats good then. Bridget is annoying but the game was fun.
>>720477180The grind is insanely slow but it's still an improvement over TowerPlacements seem weird af too, I placed Diamond 3 on both of my mains and keep eating shit, and every time I place another character it just sends me Diamond 2 players at first, even if I've barely ever played the character>>720479405Strive's playercount is stable, update + ranked brought some players but it's tapering off againI thought the ranked update would bring in more players but at least the ranked mode gives you matches really quickly now
>>720480209testament is such a fucking annoying character
Strive is literaly an antichrist
>>720480209>I thought the ranked update would bring in more players but at least the ranked mode gives you matches really quickly nowSame. I was kind of shocked that ranked mode wasn't a bigger deal, people where more excited to play that cyberpunk character or whateverRanked just gave more a reason to actually improve on the characters I play more
>>720480369Most of that was fake, and she had burst to Deflect Shield against the high/low IAD mixupsDizzy's actually a really good counterpick to Testament if you know the matchup, she can negate Testament's projectiles on reaction, and she has the same run speed as Ky so she can just dash block against normals or straight up ignore Arbiter Sign>>720480713>Same. I was kind of shocked that ranked mode wasn't a bigger deal, people where more excited to play that cyberpunk character or whateverI feel like there hasn't been that much talk around it, and it's definitely scuffed (no winstreaks after gold, matchmaking bug where you can get the same dude 3 times in a row, grindy af)Also while the balance patch is mostly good (Pot and Ram didn't get shot enough), it's not a crazy patch with a ton of sweeping changesI actually expected way more since they were saying they were reducing reliance on Wild Assault, but characters got at most one more route>Ranked just gave more a reason to actually improve on the characters I play moreIt's the reverse for me, I'm waiting on Diamond to settle out a bit because I kept playing against people that are like top 50 on their character and it's too much for me
>>720479405Ggst is the 3rd or 4th most active fighter out behind the big 3. And 3-2k peaks on steam alone for any fighting games mean it isn't anywhere close to dying.
>>720481947>It's the reverse for me, I'm waiting on Diamond to settle out a bit because I kept playing against people that are like top 50 on their character and it's too much for meI think that's just the nature of the recency of the mode. Most players are duking it out in platinum right now just like how the launch months of SF6 were. Eventually the ranks will be inflated in the next 3-6 months then Diamond and up will have a larger pool of players.
Why is she still broken?
>>720481947did they buff dizzy's wings? I see a lot of dizzy players going for it now
>>720479405 Strive's steam numbers have always looked deceptively low because the console playerbase is massive in comparison. A lot of JP/EU players are on PS5 and that doesn't even account for crossplay traffic. Also, for a fighting game, having consistent 2-3k on Steam alone is kind of wild-most “dead” FGs would kill for that baseline. People just don't realize the bar is way lower for what constitutes a healthy FG playerbase.
>>720405483>>720409337>>720418689>>720438461
>>720483457Yeah Platinum is fine, I've been climbing it a bit doing dumb shit with Slayer
>>720460264>>720464367Kimberly is pure sex.
>>720484680yeah thats fair and console seems bigger for FGs anyway.
>>720483457The skill gap between Diamond and Platinum is way bigger than I'd have expected. I've been at Diamond 1 for almost all the time since Ranked got added, but anytime I demote to Platinum 3 I absolutely maul. When I get back to Diamond 1 the average skill level is leagues higher.
>>720483767Not directly, I think it's correlated to multiple thingsFirst one is that she can get it on a lot of knockdowns and then still meaty or setup fish for reversal safe oki, or even get it in some 2H starter combos, so you're not losing much putting it onPeople also got used to some of her quirks, at release people were claiming it's bad because it takes 10 seconds to trigger, but a lot of her kit is designed towards stalling things until it activatesIce Field is one example since some characters can't play neutral with it and it takes 5 seconds, meaty Ice Spike > Ice Field also can't be punished by certain characters Her throw animation lasts for almost a secondShe also gets long-lasting blockstrings, Charged 6H > Charged Wild Assault > Charged 6H is literally gapless and will take around 3 seconds, on top of giving you a strike/throw mixThe other thing are her other buffs play into this a little bitIce Spike got its active frames doubled, which now lets her do something like 2D>Wings of Light>Fish>Ice Spike for something like +8S Michael sword now gives HKD, which lets her do S Sword > Meaty Ice Spike > Ice Field for a fullscreen, un-punishable -5

>>720491457Rollback doesn't help when playing against wi-fi shitters.
Played VF5 for the first time with the beta happening this weekend and boy does it feel different. Even DOA didn't feel as rough to play. It just feels super stiff at the moment. Not saying it's bad but I'd honestly just rather wait for VF6 at this point then to get into VF 5 now.

>>720502572fuck you
>>720490805Probably found out how annoying trannies actually are and doing anything they can to kick these people to the curb is the best thing for GG and future Arc Sys. Games.
host a lobby
>>720504808What game.
>>720495954dash FD breakalso you can poke the nukes with an extended hurtbox, the first hitbox they put out doesn't knock down so you can trade with just the first hit to get it off screen faster and move forward. This works best if the only thing stopping you from running under the high nukes is one P nuke.once you're in range throwing nukes is more of a commitment then it seems, she can chain nukes fast because they have special cancel rules into each other, but it's almost a full second before she's allowed to block or do anything else, how you can respond is massively character dependent but since she can't do two of the same nuke in a row if you block or trade with a low nuke up close she's usually minus, or at least it isn't strictly her turn still and she has to worry about your options. She can do stuff like make you block P nuke and the manual detonate K nuke to try and catch your option but that doesn't catch most crouching/low profiile options, and obviously if she FRCs you just have to hold that but as long as you're not playing ABA or something you've got options. Honestly even ABA has a lot of options its just that she gets IKd for losing three interactions where other characters would still be at 60% hp.
>>720504948tl:dr im just gonna play strive
>>720490805>>720504319It's fake you gullible retards
>>720400646mfw I play Chun on 3rd Strike and win by only using the same three buttons
>>720504948thanks for the knowledge
>>720400646I wish I could enjoy Street Fighter 6. I have massive fomo with this shit, but I just don't get why everyone likes it. It's so fucking dogshit. Drive Impact feels cheap, Drive Rush is annoying and makes every fight feel the same. It doesn't even feel like a Street Fighter game, it's too slow and heavy and zoomed in. Why does it seem like everyone loves this game so much?
>>720400646i wanna get into guilty gear, should i start playing strive or just wait for the next one?
>>720507583thanks thats what i suspected. we'll see what the saudis do with evo.
>>720510186Strive's gonna be around for at least 4-6 more years after 2026 so yeah that or +R if you don't mind less people around your skill level to learn the game against.
>>720510546>+RUnironically a shit tier anime kusoge, there's a reason why nobody likes it.
>>720510602Eh it's got a bunch of very retarded shit that makes it very reasonable to ignore but it's also dirt cheap and has the best lobby system of any currently playable GG so no harm in someone wanting to get into the series trying it.
+r is popular, /ggg/ talk about it all the time
>>720510186>just wait for the next one?The next one is still going to be Strive, it's announced as a "future update" so it's probably not going a standalone releaseGame's also in a good spot right nowhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=98NQzzjXnxc>>720511156>the best lobby system of any currently playable GGStrive's ranked mode actually works now and gives you matches fast+R's lobby system just gives you a huge list in which you can find ~10 people who have good ping (9 of them are seasoned players), it's serviceable at best
>>720510602It can be very dumb and every character can do some crazy cheap shit but it's also really fucking fun. Though that kinda crazy shit is not for everyone
>>720511984>>720511156Honestly, I just don't like the way it feels. It's too jumpy and spastic. I like a heavier pace to my fighting games. I'm a 3rd Strike fag, so maybe that's why. I've been wanting to get into Strive for quite a while now. I guess I don't have much of an excuse now that they added the ranked mode.Not sure if I should play Baiken, Bridget, or ABA.
>>720511780>Strive's ranked mode actually works now and gives you matches fastYeah I know I'm on it constantly but I just wanted to say it and every other post bb arcsys game still has the worst fucking lobbies while +R has a very good one in comparison to even non arc game lobbies. Wish Tekken got something like that before they shit the bed with 7 and 8.
>>720444694I miss her anime facial features.
>>720509454It only took a few months to feel "done" with SF6. I actually liked Drive Impact and how zoomed-in the game is though.
>>720512807Same. I got to Plat after about 60 hours and thought "I'm tired, boss". I realized I would have to actually learn how to use Drive Rush and I just stopped wanting to play. I went back to V for a little bit, but now I mostly play 3rd Strike. After playing that game for a while, I went back to 6 and had a little bit of fun, but it felt incredibly bland. Every character plays the same. Not literally, obviously, but in 3rd Strike, there are characters I absolutely hate fighting and others I love to fight. Each character has a unique playstyle and enough room for the players themselves to have idiosyncrasies. 6 just feels the same no matter who you're fighting. Yeah, Guile might zone you some or Gief might grab you more, but it's only minor deviations.
>>720509454>Why does it seem like everyone loves this game so much?Pros """love""" it because it makes them money and casuals love it because it allows them to pretend they are getting good at fighting games.
so has anybody actually played riot's game?
>>720512223Yeah I get ya, the way a game feels to a person is very important so it's pretty understandable you feel that way and funnily enough, the way Strive felt for me personally was one of the reasons I went back to +R even though I had fun with it.I don't have that much experience in Strive overall, but I would guess it's maybe more up your alley. Also pick who feels best to you, I have only played Baiken (don't own Bridget of ABA) but she felt cool.
>>720460264I wish I could own her
>>720514694I've played +R for like 80 hours and I could never really get into it. I definitely think the aesthetics are better than Strive. As for Strive, I played all three a long time ago, but I barely have over 20 hours in the game in total. Maybe it's stupid, but all the trannies really keep me from wanting to really get into the game for real. At least Street Fighter is full of black dudes and nerds. Well, mostly. Well anyway, I think Baiken is just a sick ass character.
>>720512223Why won't you try granblue? No offense, but attracting you sfags to gg was a mistake, your all trying a desensitized version of gg that you dont even like and cant be satisfied with your own game
>>720509454I was thinking about buying it on sale, but I don't know
>>720515124Definitely look for a key online. I got SF6 at like half the price that way, and this like a year ago, maybe more. It's not a good fighting game, in my honest opinion. I feel like even Tekken 8, in a vacuum, could be better than SF6. I dunno, though. Tons of people seem to love it, so maybe I just don't get it. I'll give it credit where it's due, the graphics look very good IN THE RIGHT CONDITIONS (the super cinematics are all very cool, for example), the music is very good, the character designs are great, and the overall style of the game is good. I like that they went with the hip-hop style again. It's also got a good roster, I think. For all these reasons, I wish I could like the game. Stylistically, it's not a bad game, it's just that the game itself is not for me. If you like older SF games, you probably won't like 6, but if you've never played a SF game, you'll probably like it. In fact, if you've never played an older SF game, download Fightcade and play 2 or 3 or Alpha for free.
>>720460264need pinkchocolate
>>720513887I hit Diamond 5 myself, and I thought, almost Master, and I thought to myself, "Alright... So this is where I just keep cranking the lever on matches and crack out on points..." And I decided to spare myself that. I think one of my turning points was the match where I learned from first-hand experience that checking raw Drive Rush even as a read was still a fucking dice roll. I feel you on that other stuff. I think what you're describing is the byproduct of making these games easier execution-wise so that optimal routes are more clear and accessible, leading to less variation. Games are becoming more combo-focused in general too, which feels like a dead horse at this point in general fighting game discussion, especially in what puts people off. People shit on SF4's one-frame links but at least it was usually just shit like jab jab strong special hitconfirm where a lot of times that strong was just there to optimize and you could still get special off your lights. Which could lead to certain risk factors coming into play due to the execution boundary, especially in the face of i-frame high damage Ultras, giving room for players to differentiate. I'm apparently a weirdo for actually liking execution boundaries in games exactly for reasons like these.
>>720516232>that typo at the startSo I says to Mabel I says...
>>720516232I like a certain level of execution leniency. For instance, I can't, for the life of me, do a delta motion. Maybe if I played a game or character with one, I could eventually learn, but I just can't, and I am absolutely very happy that they aren't used in SF anymore. However, I do agree that there needs to be a certain level of execution barriers in order to make the game actually interesting. I feel the variety of inputs is really what makes fighting games unique, because each character can literally FEEL distinct by the way you control them. Anyway, Drive Impact was really what pissed me off after a while. Drive Rush was kinda fun to use as combo extenders. I, myself, actually like combos, but not when they're absurdly long. Anyway, I can't react to DI for the life of me, even after labbing for hours, and there were so many times where I was in some kind of animation, like let's say divekick, and I can't do shit. Yeah, that's on me for doing an uncancelable move, but even when I'm just jabbing, their DI eats my jabs and I get fucked. It's literally just a big retard button they can hit, gain some armor, and win the trade. It's very annoying. I wanted to reach Master and maybe even Grand Master. I wanted to be super good at the game, but I eventually just got pissed off with it. At time time, I was also checking out older SF games, since I had only ever played 2 when I was young and V when it came out, and I really enjoyed 3rd Strike. At this point, I've completely uninstalled SF6 and am determined to become very skilled with Chun Li. This thread has convinced me to check out Strive, so maybe I'll give that game a shot, too. I absolutely love the characters.I really miss my girl, Cammy. I've loved her since I was a kid. Alas, maybe SF7 won't be shit.
>>720514985You could alway play a bit more and see how you like it. 20 hours is not that much overall, and assuming you own Strive already you can always just try it for a bit and then say fuck it and go back to 3S or something if you're not feeling it.And like >>720515093 suggested you can always try Granblue too if you haven't already. There's a free version too.Also no need for the trans folks to bother you. I get it, but If you are feeling the game, then just go for it. Who knows, maybe down the line you'll think some of them are cool people(Ps: yeah, Guilty Gear X to +R era asthetics are so fucking rad and Baiken is also fucking rad)
>>720516928>no need for the trans folks to bother youWait, what board am I on again?Anyway, I'm deep in the sunk cost fallacy pit, having bought the game and like three DLC characters. I may as well turn it into my secondary.
>>720516232>checking raw drive rush even as a read is a dice rollIt's funny how this is true no matter your skill level because like 5 days ago broski was eliminated from a tourney just because a bison did instant scissor kicks out of raw DR to beat a check and that snowballed the round
>>720516847Not to keep stroking that game off, but I thought SF4 reached a good compromise by having shortcut/alternative motions for some of the more complicated moves. >Drive ImpactIf a normal FG is RPS, then introducing Drive Impact is rock-paper-scissors-shotgun. I don't know, I might be biased because I got into the closed betas, and playing around with DI was one of my favorite things about the game in that stage. 3S is fun shit. It's not my favorite SF and it's been a while since I hopped on it but I used to play a lot of different characters in it. Makoto basically being a gorilla in a teenage girl suit is the best shit. Yang was my first main, followed by her, then eventually Hugo. I didn't start messing with grapplers until I got on SF2 Champion Edition and thought, "how the fuck does Zangief even work in this game without his tools from later games," and I decided to answer that question myself. Turned out the answer to me at least was leaning super hard into meaty sweep tic SPD. Hugo's cr. MK sweep is pretty fuckin' stupid too, like being able to link into it off claps. Dude just makes mashed potatoes out of your face clapping your fucking ears together then just goes *boop* with his stanky leg and gets oki. Amazing. I never could get Chun to work in CE, though. Maybe I didn't lean hard enough into lightning legs chip. But she has 0 answer to Bison's buttfuckery unlike a shoto who can crosscut his psycho crushers.
Will there ever be a day where Axl stops being shit in Strive?
>>720517418I've never been able to like SF4, it just felt very muddy to me. That makes zero sense, I know, but the movement and feedback to the hits didn't feel at all satisfying. It felt like moving in quicksand. That's just me, though. I also think the visuals are kinda ugly. Now, very ironically, I do think SFV is good and fun, but only by the end of its life. By that metric, I would still consider SFV good, because that'd be like saying Fight for the Future is bad because Next Generation was (which, it most certainly was). I think the feedback is super punchy, V Trigger is kind of a mystery box, but gives characters a level of individuality, ESPECIALLY characters like Menat who can go fucking sicko mode with it. I would still play it if it didn't take 5 minutes to find a match.Anyway, as for 3rd Strike, I've gone through tons of characters. Makoto is super cool and she got me into the game, but I eventually got bored of her gameplan. I don't really like everything being based around Karakusa. I then tried Akuma because I LOVE Akuma, I think he's such a badass character, but he was too shoto for me. I eventually gravitated to Chun for her technical depth, and I just like her design. I know she's OP, but I'm shit, so it evens out. I've also always been a big fan of Justin, so I like watching him play Chun and learning from him. 3rd Strike is my favorite purely due to the feel of the game. I think the pacing, weight, etc are all absolutely perfect. I hate it for not having the World Warriors, though. I wish the cast was a big bigger. Oh, and the art and music are GREAT. It's really a beautiful game. I've played a good bit of 2 and Alpha, but they're not my kinda games. 2 feels a bit too dated, and the Alpha games, while being pretty, are a little too floaty for me. They feel like they're almost anime games, which I guess makes sense considering MvC2 exists.
>>720460264post more
>flicks your dick off
>>720518265I feel like I enjoyed SF5 more in retrospect than my conscious mind acknowledged in the moment. I never played it a whole lot, I wound up playing more ST around then, but playing shoto in 5 was fun. Before I stopped playing, I decided to do the dash and mash Ryu meme for real, liberal grabs, test their ability to check forward dash, all that good stuff. I clipped a match where I fought a guy who spent his V bar on V-reversal to get grabbed out every single one back-to-back, shit was gold. I wish I wasn't constantly cycling out my fighting game clips, don't have it anymore. I forget the character but I'm pretty sure it was one who had 3 V stocks too, great comedic effect. I think my favorite character all-in-all looking back was Sakura, though. >JustinDude makes good content desu, his clickbait thumbnails bely how entertaining the videos really are. And good for him finding a way to pivot his skill set into something still marketable without having to stay competing. >AlphaI think Alpha 2 might be next up on the plate when I get back on these games. I played more A3 before. I can see the anime comparison especially with the air teching in that one. Only unlike an anime game where you'll be more prone to teching at the earliest opportunity so that you can airblock anything else that comes your way, varying maybe to throw off grabs, you pretty much NEVER want to air tech at the earliest opportunity in A3. "Stop air teching as soon as you can" is like the "stop jumping" of A3.
>>720517132Go for it man. Having a secondary game can be a good change of pace so yeah. Only reason to stop is if you simply can't get into it after many hours and genuinely are not having any fun many sessions straight.
>Want to pick up xrd>It's even more dead than usual on steamWell, shit
>older version of a game is better brut has shitty netcode >newer version is worse but has good netcode Why does this keep happening?
>>720519548How about >start rereleasing games people were clamoring to have modern versions of like, 10+ years ago>give NONE OF THEM crossplay
>>720519024I love taking clips of my games, but they do end up taking up a lot of space on my drive. I tend to delete them after a while. I wish I had some on hand to post here. >good for him finding a way to pivot his skill set into something still marketableHis clickbait is super obnoxious, but yeah he just seems like a really charismatic guy. There's an interview with him that was made recently, I think it was Chris or Brian or one of those new FGC guys, and I learned a lot about him I didn't know. He's a very interesting dude, the way he approaches fighting games and especially the stuff he got up to when he was younger. There really aren't anyone quite like Justin nowadays, and there can't be, because the FGC is just so big now and the events are all so official and sponsored and stuff. Maybe on the local level, there's still some kid winning Chinatown Fair tokens and selling them for money. >is like the "stop jumping" of A3Maybe I was playing Alpha 3 wrong then lol. It felt very jumpy to me. >>720519474I played Xrd for a little while. Don't worry about the numbers. Skullgirls was what got me back into fighting games as an adult, and that game has always had super low numbers. With Xrd, you just have to go to the player lobbies. The lack of proper matchmaking in that game is the main reason I quit playing it, and it's the only reason I'm considering playing Strive now.
I've been playing some DOA and Blazblue lately. I got a code for the 2XKO beta and I have it downloaded but I haven't tried it out yet.
>>720519632>The lack of proper matchmaking in that game is the main reason I quit playing it, and it's the only reason I'm considering playing Strive now.I did consider getting into Strive just because I might be too stupid and SF-brained to play the earlier GG games. It still just looks extremely unappealing to me for some reason.
>>720519804I am also too SF brained for anime kuso. I like Strive because there's weightiness to it and the links feel much more natural to me, being a Street Fighter player. I labbed juggles and other kinds of combos for a long time in +R to relative success, but the whole speed and weight of the game, the way neutral works, etc, is all just way too spastic for me. I also used to bemoan how simplified the characters in Strive are, which is true, but I actually realize they're about as complex as Street Fighter characters. It's not like they're braindead or anything.
>>720519632The thing about Alpha is there's air blocking but ground normals are air unblockable, so jumping is still a heavy risk especially with V-ism giving people anti-air CCs. That's why you don't want to tech early, you're basically just setting yourself up to eat somebody's back+fierce conversion. >Wong's clickbaitI think it's been algorithmically proven that having those soiface thumbs greatly increases viewership, and that's the reason Justin does it. Which I respect. I still have some clips but very few from real matches. Mostly combos. I actually had great fun with KoFXI just labbing and doing its very unique mission mode. I do have one here of me playing KoF '98 with a dude from /vr/ where he's pushing my shit in, which I thought was only fair to make, because I previously posted one where I beat him. I held off until now because I'm being exposed. You can pinpoint the moment my heart rips in half when I see rekka x1 hit and go for the full hits only to falsely extend and get punished hard.
>>720519632>Maybe I was playing Alpha 3 wrong then lol. It felt very jumpy to me. Chicken blocking is really strong in all of the Alpha games (it's not as OP as in Vampire Savior but still strong) and V-ism activation having startup invul makes it dangerous for the opponent to contest your jumpin, whiffed throws also build meter in A3 and air throw is universal so you'll see people whiffing air throw repeatedly for meter
>>720520140>clip cuts offDamn why do I even still have that one? Oh well, still think it's only fair to post me getting BTFO to its full extent.
>>720520289>>720520140Now you're just making me want to play 98, thanks anon
>>720520376It's a good fucking game. I had great fun playing UMFE with the same three or four Chinese or Korean dudes who'd be on at all hours, back a couple years ago. Shit was pretty dead for real last I looked on it. Which is a shame, the online is great.
>>720520497Are you the same anon I played a set of vanilla 98 then UMFE with once at the end of July? If so let's run it, if not let's still run it
>>720520756I don't think I played any UMFE with the guy. I did wind up playing a little KoF '95 by accident from matchmaking in the wrong lobby at first, lol.
I managed to find a lobby in Tekken 5DR on RPCS3 a couple nights ago. The netcode is so so bad but the game is so so good. It's the game that got me into fighting games so just playing it again at all is awesome. Playing the older entries again really shows how far Tekken has fallen. Tekken 8 is tragic.
>>720520756>>720520878 again, anyway, what's your Steam or FC, or some other way to spot you in the lobby?
>>720400646is it only me or do all these modern FGs have the most lamest sanitized milquetoast aesthetics ever?
>>720521460I'm lurking in the 98 FC lobby, just ping odabugs (NA east)
I want to learn Third Strike, but I don't know if I can
>>720522086I sent you an @
whats the best fighting game if i want to install nude mods and watch the characters fightis it MUGEN
>>720522416Do you already know how to play fighting games?>yesThen go on Youtube and look up "[character you want to play] primer" and there is likely to be a video guide to start you off. Or, join the Discord server and the character channels there have tons of resources>noGo on Youtube and start learning about fighting games and the way they work. Learn about footsies and neutral, offense, and defense. Justin Wong has a good guide, Core A Gaming makes good FGC content, and pretty much any big FGC Youtuber has some kind of guide. Theory Fighter is pretty good, too. Most of all, just play the game. Learning a bunch of shit on Youtube won't help if you don't have a foundation to base it on.>don't know if I canWhy, because it's hard? You'll get used to the lack of input buffer. That's really the only thing that's particularly harder about 3s than new SF games.
>>720523104I have nothing to contribute to this conversation but cute pic.
>>720523104I've only done training mode and never an actual match. I played SFV a little but sucked at it.
>>720523702Then get yo ass on Fightcade and start challenging people. Nothing to it but to do it
>>720523618It's Omar Dogan. I just looked up more of his art and it's all sameface shit. Still, pretty cute.
>he hates itIt's over
>>720521687That is what happens when you seek mainstream appeal by any means necessary.
I want to learn and fuck around with a new fighting game I haven't played before. I don't care about current player base, functioning online, fighting game genre, etc. Any suggestions?
