What am I missing with Tekken? It feels extremely strange to control, like I'm missing something fundamentalI'm coming from 2D fighters so maybe that's it and Tekken is the only 3D fighter I've played
The basis of "high-level movement" in Tekken is literally a bug from 30+ years ago. Play SoulCalibur instead.
it's the most intuitive movement system in a fighting game
>>722559869But I live in Australia, we don't have a scene and I refuse to join discord
>>722559945Is your name Eric, per chance?
>>722560167No, why does every fucking thread have some namefag schizo?
>>722558498Give virtua fighter a whirl, it's got that Sega polish
>>722560242What are my options for Virtua Fighter though? There was some remake of 5 on PS4 only if I remember right
>>722558498It clicks eventually. I watched some video a while ago and I got good at it shortly after. It's mainly poke and reposition when needed. Sidestep according to the character, and use kbd, back step, or whatever alt movement your character has (Jag Step, Yoshi Spin, Lars stances, etc) to create space. Jumping is useless unless you're going for mind games.
>>722560283Yeah and they're making a new one
Tekken is only 3D in graphics only, its sidestep and sidewalk are but systems that move you between different 2D planes where you can continue fighting your janky 2D fighter with internationally bad forward movement, no jumping and jerky backdashes.Play Soul Calibur.
>>722560283They released a PC version and they are going to launch the cross-platform version of it at the end of this month(that you get for free if you already have the PC version).
>>722559945What's your ping to Asia? Plenty of Asian players play SC.
>>722559894when it works*
>>722560364>>722560514>>722560283>>722560242remember to practice thankfulness
>>722558498>>541633340
>>722561531Forgot /vg/ but you get it
>>722559869SC has no local scene anywhere except maybe Japan
>>722561717both SC games are still hella popular in Korea
>>722560630honestly what put me off. the up close game was like VF but inconsistent and shit. the further range game felt like tag 1. but shite. at this point what does modern tekken actually do well ?
>>722562517coom
>>722561717I've seen enough players with Asian region and Chinese or English set as display language to disagree.
>>722562517replay system is good
>>722563024for the genre, even league replays dunk on it
>>722563114genuinely how?
>>722560219Okay well in that case is your name Steve then?
>>722563219Not every Australian is Steve Irwin
>>722563024did it even have a replay system. the last tekken i played was T7 at launch.
>>722563170play league and find out
>>722564238i do lmao, thats literally why i asked. cool that you dodged the question thoughleagues replay system hasnt significantly changed in its entire lifetime
>>722564319>dodid*
>>722564319>leaguewho cars
>>722558498I think Tekken movement is only fun if you're playing on a stick. Backdash cancels or wavedashing has never felt good on a pad to me, not that you really need them anymore in Tekken 8 since so many moves have stupid amounts of reach/tracking (or both) these days. Also swapping between 2D and 3D is definitely jarring, even for someone like me who has put thousands of hours into both genre of fighting games.
>>722559869Back dash cancel is not a bug and exists in more fighting games than just tekken and was in other fighting games before tekken, in fact more fighting games have back dash cancelling than don’t.SoulCalibur also has back dash cancelling.
>>722567446I do it on pad just fine
>>722558498t8 feels kinda shitty to control desu>>722567446do you play on ds4?i hate how perfect kbd feels on that dpad but on ds3 it's fine
>>722558498IQ lol
>>722570785?
I made it to the red ranks in Tekken 8, the one right before the purple ranks. Am I good at Tekken yet?
I have no idea how you play this game on a pad, but on a keyboard both kbd and electrics are very easy.
>>722571331No, the ranked systems in modern online fighting games are built to make players feel good about themselves.
>>722571331You are remedial yolo online mashing bum
I plug on kings players. Grapplersnt deserve the rope. I should be punished because your shit character needs 50 different forms of hyper armor because they suck.
>>722560219Is your name George?
>>722571331That's below average. Ranked has become a joke, I've seen sub-par players from season 1 who were stuck in red ranks reach GoD in season 2.
>>722558498you need to learn, b,b,d+b as your way to move around or you will get rocked with a low kick when you back step which leaves you vulnerable to low attacks. It can be used as a bait to get the enemy to attack you with a long mid strike as well. You need to know that standing and moving back gives you protection from high and mid strikes automatically. You need to learn which 3-8 frame moves you can side step for a mid launcher or a whiff punish and which highs you can duck under to launch a counter attack and juggle.
>>722574471Ranked is a joke because they allow cheaters to play with interrupt macros, combo scripts for days yet when they press buttons they barely can do shit. Its a joke.
>>722567483The game was obviously not designed with kbd in mind and it should be removed from the game along with all the meter and super bullshit. Sidestepping was basically dead because of kbd even when it worked.
>>722558498To be fair, you need at least 75IQ to really grasp the basics of Tekken. Tough for a lot of 2D tourists.
>>722574756>can't even execute keyboard sidestep.You are not a real gamer.
>>722574767Let's be fair, you need at least 90IQ due to the 100s of moves you need to memorize. Tekken 8 cut that shit to about half because other moves aren't viable.
>>722564319>no replyfaggots on this website just say random retarded shit its so funny
