>Virtua Fighter Showcase happening right nowhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4FbsD6YZTnM>SF6 season 4 revealedPlay fightan.Discuss fightan.
>snk fag: uhhh what about capcomthe typical snk fag response to criticism of snk shit
>>740362834I like SNK & Capcom games just fine. CotW & SF6 aren't the best in their series obviously but they're good. SamSho 7 was the best in its series though.
>>740362834Who are you even talking about, schizo? I bet you don't play fighting games.
I honestly almost can’t believe that sf6 pass is real
Fighting Games have finally achieved perfect harmony.
>>740363093I'm glad somebody has that opinion of SamSho. I like V a lot but its too fucking insane to be the best game.
Not feeling the VF6 newcomers I'll be quite honest.
>>740363093yes, samsho is also the best they've offered up so far in their modern catalogueit's faint praise to say that tho
>>740363343My main issue is the new protag.Cielo is such a shit design and he's ironically the one new guy so far that doesn't look like a VF character.
I am confused. I don't play fighting games. The trailer made it look like an adventure beat em up but clicked OPs video and its fighting game now.
I guess maybe this is the one
>>740362834Friend, your bot is broken, this makes literally zero sense as the first reply to this thread.
>>740363514grrr I want to play platinum but I mess up the pogo loop
where is the fighting game
Oh my fucking God its millennial writing
>>740363627it's a preamble for later
Is this really "wasted resources"? Looks fucking high quality.
>>740363706https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mEyrfFwf3rI
Wow Cielo is a fuckwit. Now all your friends are gonna die, punch boy
>>740363231There's characters I like a lot that didn't get into 7 (my boy Seiger especially) but I think they really nailed the systems and the artstyle covers up the rough models a lot better than KOF XIV & XV.>>740363343Pantsuit lady has my interest but more because she makes my pp the big pp.
focusing on the single player is unironically the correct move, they can't compete with tekken unless they make it packed with content
>>740363741Then I'm afraid it causes exactly the opposite effect since now it just sounds like some Capcom fan is an obsessed faggot who can't shut the fuck up about SNK
>>740363856This is not for us. This is for the casuals.
>>740364023well that's too bad but i missed the part where that's my problem
All the characters in this VF showcase look like shit, both as designs and graphic assets. This isn't selling me on wanting to play the game, either as a fighter or some beat-em-up.
Storychads won
AAAAAAAAA SHINJI YAMAMOTO DAVID HAYTER
>>740364340You made it your problem the moment you replied.
>>740364378Pai and the neckbeard friend look good.
Bro, I'm sorry, Stella is almost there but that face is not fucking it.
>>740364497oh no well i'll continue to miss the part where that is my problem anyway lmao
>>740364378It's okay for one fighting game not to have every character be Blargo the space elephant
>>740364656>Blargo the space elephantSounds rad as fuck, where can I play as him?
Yup. That's Virtua Fighter. It looks fucking great honestly.
>>740364656now that would be a scrimblo, unlike how people were misusing the term before
Genuinely why is Sega not all hands on deck like this all the fucking time? This is actually fucking crazy to see them go this hard into this.
Man they really trying to aim for GOTY huh. I mean if it's get nominated then It's a win.
raped genre
A wrestler as massive as Wolf doing Will Ospreay's moves is really funny.
>>740363180Are those actually new VF characters, they look like background npcs
>>740364959Is Will tiny or something?
Thoughts on new VF? Looks great to me
>>740364972Thats how you know they are real virtual fighter characters lmao
Seriously, it's terrible.I couldn't care less for a chicano.I don't like this fucking ugly "realism"
>>740365021He's a pretty lean Britbong rather than Wolf being ripped to the gills.
>>74036511311/10 instant buy for me
>>740364972>they look like background npcsMy brother, aside from Akira, who usually looks like Mr. Karate to the casual, that's the apt description for Virtua Fighter as a whole. Hell, I'm willing to say VF is the barrier between fighting games and just straight up making MMA because of how grounded VF usually is.>>740365113I like it. That's Virtua Fighter all right. Not a particular fan of the newcomers just yet but the old cast are shining. The presentation of the town itself and the implication of screen transitions being stylish is all great. I'm probably not touching the adventure mode or whatever.
>>740364959
>>740365113>solid single player for the casuals>same hardcore ranked for the wifi warriors>game has style with the zoom in'sSeriously this is what I wanted street fighter to have, this will shit all over world tour.
>Story shit took up 20 minutes of the showcase>The actual gameplay got 2 minutes>Didn't even explain anything about the mechanics>pic is the first thing they say in the gameplay segmentIt's so weird seeing this genre gradually not being made for me anymore.
>>740365205>I don't like this fucking ugly "realism"So you never liked Virtua Fighter?
>>740365152>>740365251I know what you mean but these look even less memorable than other VF characters.
>>740365342>Didn't even explain anything about the mechanicsbecause they're showing it to casuals, not nerds like you
>>740365446Oh, fair enough. They seem to be missing something but we gotta actually see them in action beyond cutscenes.
>>740365113We've wrapped around and somehow VF has better art direction than anyone besides arcsys.
>>740365113Well when they finally got to the fighting game part it looked like VF with even more animation detail so sure looks fine. Show me Taka and the newcomer in the suit's ass and I might get at launch.
I mean what did you fucks expect about the gameplay? It looks the same but only more cinematic. Do you fuckers want a meter too?
>>740363503Its both. Its a fighting game with a huge fuck single player campaign made by yakuza devs
>>740365113It looks cool. I'm putting a lot of desperate hope into it since I hate every other current fighting game. It's the last chance to save this genre for me.
>>740365342Sega wants Virtua Fighter to actually sell well and justify its existence next to Street Fighter and Tekken, so naturally appealing to you isn't going to achieve that.
>>740365640I hope the Bakunawa Killer and Jasper are playable
>>740365342yeah, even the sf6 fighter pass was shit. All we have is to see how doa7 will be like. casuals should play some indie streets of rage or something.
>>740365113I still feel really burned by the singleplayer mode in SF6 so we shall see
>>740365342The last time VF was made for oldfags like you, the franchise fucking died.You shouldn't be shocked that they're trying to reach new audiences, the old one couldn't sustain it.
>>740365359Sorry, but all the VF looked more colorful, exotic and fun than this one.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7HQ2vspMHAwww.youtube.com/watch?v=o7HQ2vspMHAhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7HQ2vspMHAThis is just an ugly boring ass "serious" game.
>>740362641>tekken is dead>Capcom is king again>VF is back to being the most innovative FGall is right with the world
>>740363970maybe
>>740365342The best way to sell fighting games nowdays is to not talk about the fighting game part because the only people that like fighting games are weird sweatlord autists.
>>740365768I too hope the fat nerd is playable, or at least has a moment in the story to shine that isn't just a comedy bit.
>>740365932Does this mean we'll get good waifus in VF, we'll I get to date Pai and Sarah?
>>740365640>fat best friend comic relief characterI alway had a soft spot for this trope
>>740365342what's with all the sparkling shit like the older games again, I thought this one was going for more realism autism with only dust particles. did they change their mind?
>>740365342>pretending to be a VF veteranlmao nobody gave a shit about VF until now
>>740364541At moments it must look like the nicest face models I've seen aside from Kojima's team, although at times it also looks like a just really really nice PS3 game.
>>740362641>sixteen charactersWho's getting cut?
>>740365113Everything except Cielo looks good. Cielo really fucking sucks
>>740366292That was the character select screen? Looks fucking cool.
>>740365342SEGA wants a Virtua Fighter title to sell over 2 million copies again after being unable to do so since the PS2.You aren't needed anymore, pure arcade fighters will never sell millions of copies in this day and age.
>>740366292Most of the VF vets if they're smart.Just go full overhaul reboot and leave those boring niggas in the past.
>>740362641These are your four main characters tonight. Choose your fighter
Generic Fighter!Get hype!
>>740365359Compare the new game to how vivid and vibrant the old games were, it's like night and day. I guess normalfags are allergic to colors according to their market research or something, I don't see why else they'd tone it down this much.https://youtu.be/hGNMcif9RjA
>>740366292Everybody that isn't immediately iconic to VF is gone. So goodbye to Taka, Blaze, Brad, Jean, etc. Kage, Vanessa, Jacky, etc. should be safe. Jeffry, Aoi & Dural are on the fence probably.
>>740365342Lack of "story shit" is what made VF obscure and dead to normies.
>>740365910If you're only bitching about the aesthetics then sure be my guest but 'realism' has always been a core part of VF with its purist martial arts theme, and realistic and very fluid animations. You're still getting that here.
>>740366292Akira, Wolf, Pai, Stella, and Cielo are already confirmed. 11 left. I don't expect the old dudes to make it.
I mean they just made a Yakuza game that just happened to have a fighting game in it. They took the joke and rolled with it. Makes sense, I guess. Probably the only way to make back the money that goes into the fighting game.
>>740366292>cielo>stella>black guy>suit chick>akira>pai>wolf>jacky probably>jeffry probablyWe already know nine of them.
>>740366292>vencer o morir, baby!I almost did a spit take when I heard that. And now this image confirms it!As a paraguayanon this feels weird... >>740366381The face isn't that bad, but those two strands of twisted hair at the front have to go. Yuck.
>>740366247and no one will give a shit a week after release. all the casuals ITT are faggots thinking retention will be any good. This genre is immune to your terraforming attempts.
>>740365342>VF should only appeal to me and die againIs that what you want anon?
where did the five billion virtua fighter fans come out of and why aren't they playing vf5 right now
SOLID MOTHER FUCKING GOD-SNAKE writing the script. Along with some fag who wrote for Ghosts of Toshiba.
>>740365836>The last time VF was made for oldfags like you, the franchise fucking died.Are you actually fucking retarded? VF didn't even fucking die. VF5 sold insanely well. It was received pretty well, too. Sega decided to drop the momentum from there and that was the end of VF.You don't have to fucking lie about this franchise. Virtua Fighter is coming out in a completely different environment than it did last time so it makes sense they have to do something new, but it "died cause people didn't buy it"? You know people actually are going to cross check retarded shit like that, right?
>>740365342just give us a decent home port of vf3 not tied up to a yakuza game and we'll be good, the overstorification of the genre is real at this point
>>740366292cielo has vanessas moveset so shes obviously gone
>>740366512This. VF was notorious for having next to nothing about the world, characters, or plot in the games. Most of the VF lore we know is through dialogue in spinoff & crossover games. SF, Tekken, and the other major fighting games IPs from the 90s all at least had arcade endings, character interactions, etc to let you hook into the cast for more than just their moveset.
>>740365541It reeks DEI.>mystery meat 1>mystery meat 2>black man>powerful strong woman
>>740366538>Jeffry's SidequestHE'S FUCKING WILD
>>740366035I mean I liked that short haired girl that was part of the gang.
>>740366719kek
>>740365342Go back to fightcade if you want a game made for you.
>>740366130Oh, so that's why the dialogue fucking sucks.
>>740366292Stella looks so pretty
>>740366507You need Taka and Kage at least.
>>740366987gg no re
>>740366987kek
>>740367061Taka is the only character they ever cut before, he's likely to get cut again. I say that as a Taka player.
When the fuck did they add Secure Boot to VF5 Revo? I was going to buy that when it inevitably went on sale after they showed whatever they were gonna show for VF6.
>>740367208>I was going to buy that when it inevitably went on sale after they showed whatever they were gonna show for VF6.Huge VF fan exited to play VF for the first time
>cielo is supposed to be of paraguayan rootsWTF, Japan knows my country exists?
>>740366292Sarah is gone.Stella has her moveset and costume, so there's no reason to bring her back.
>>740364624>capfuck tries to look cool quoting spider-man 3
>>740367282If I was a huge VF fan I would have bought it on release, dickhead. I don't think I've ever touched a VF game aside from maybe throwing a couple quarters in a cabinet as a kid and nothing I said implied I was a fan aside from enjoying fighting games.
>>740366538I think Vanessa, Lion, Shun Di, and Jeffry are goners.
>>740367189Then who is gonna be the big lad? The fatso from the story mode? That'd be kino actually, I like him already.
>>740367348First I hear of it
>>740367348Congrats
>>740365113It looks great. Want to know more about the battle system obviously, especially when at TGS they talked about there being vs two modes or some shit. Curious who's returning and who'll get replaced.
SF6 won
>>740367495>I don't think I've ever touched a VF gamelike clockwork
>>740366729>VF5 sold insanely well. by what metric, the voices in your head? Each Virtua Fighter game used to sell millions of Arcade cabinets, not console ports but actual millions of full heavy ass cabinets, by the time VF5 came around it couldn't break its first million copies sold on the PS3 and 360 under a year anymore, took a while to pass that threshold.Pure Arcade fighters like Virtua Fighter could stand on its own anymore, while Tekken ate up all of the casuals since that series understood times were changing, pure arcade fighters became a thing of the past.
>>740365738And theyre doing it by focusing on things the series was always good at, which is smart. The 'generic' visuals work to their advantage when they make a super high effort story mode, cause then now they have the best story mode and the best graphics. It's the natural way to make people care about characters who look like NPCs, and they're doing it correctly by having the characters represent something universal, more so than trying to force the character to have MC energy. So it's more like role-playing.I'm just admiring the work they've done here.
>>740366486How is Cielo the ONE LOSER in these four and he got the most attention in the most pivotal moment to show off the game?
>>740366809>help Jeffrey fill out all the necessary forms so he can get back on Centerlink and keep getting dole payments
that scene with the graffiti animation was kino>>740366719this. Bunch of posers
>>740367563the most browns in a season award
>>740367487:3
>>740367593So you actually wanna stick to this weird lie that VF5 killed Virtua Fighter. Alright. You do you, I guess.
>>740362641Will this game get dlc passes and shit or will it just stick with its base roster?
Shenmue vibes
>>740367505It seems like Jeffry might be in unless they reduced him to an npc>>740366809
>>740367563And that's a GOOD thing
>>740367531I'm honestly... cool with it I guess? Although I fucking hate the reggaeton shit they put as Cielo's listening music.He'd better drop some expletives in Guarani somewhere in the game...
>>740366486Stella looks autistic.
>>740366987>Lion looking around in disbelief at his own stupidityPeople have the audacity to call this IP sauceless I swear to God
>>740367741I mean, it objectively did. Almost nobody cared about it outside of Japan and it killed the series for two decades.
>>740367508Not surprised. Most people think Uruguay if you ever mention it.
>>740367741Sales don't lie, Virtua Figjter 5 performed worse than Virtua Fighter 4 sales wise in every metric, first week, first year, lifetime.
>>740367574NTA but why are you assuming he's frauding as a VF fan when he's just talking about wanting to jump on 5?
>>740366729>>740367741>VF5 killed the franchise>but it totally did well dudewhat VF cope is this
>>740367563I like Yasmine and Arjun a lot already. Tifa is okay I guess, the only appeal to me is how they translate Materia into gameplay and how funny it is that another fighting game put her in before Tekken.
>>740366804Its a fucking fighting game, diveresty is necessary. You must be new to these games
>>740367563Why does Arjun look normal in the trailer and then he looks like a fucking cryptid here
>>740367574Retard
>>740365342>suddenly /v/ is full of longtime VF fans that are heartbroken that the game isn't being made for them anymore Every time.Do you larp as a Guilty Gear oldfag too lol
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0YnubgcB2JURGG makes a good looking movies every fucking year, sometimes twice a year!!
>>740367563Tifa in a non-Square fighting game is so cool...or would have been, if the fighting game wasn't Dix
>>740366507>Eileen was only in one game and the youngest fighterI want her back but I'm also preparing myself for if that doesn't happen.
>>740367282I touched VF1/2 in arcades so I get an opinion. It's weird to me that people say it has a bland style because if you ever saw those games Kage immediately stood out despite being just a blue ninja guy. It doesn't matter that I can't remember the drunken old master's name, if you see that guy you think virtua fighter.
>>740368084VF5 is a good game still and the japanese scene was packed for years, they cope with that.Meanwhile sales is the only thing a company cares when measuring how successful a product is, the truth of the matter is simple: VF5 did worse than VF4, naturally SEGA saw it as the VF series on its way out.
>>740366719>slayer reaction image ironic
>why isn't VF6 appealing to old VF playershmm I wonder why
>>740366292>fighting style : mmaCan they stop doing this gay shit already?
>>740367563I literally just noticed this, but that's an big body jeet grappler;. There's no mistaking it, Arjun is like an Indian's girl's name, that's a giga jeet with a Zeus beard.
>>740368608what gay shit?
>>740368608no, if anything they'll keep leaning into it, this game looks like the style was inspired by SF6
>>740368608it's like someone calling their fighting style "jeet kune do" which is self-assigned by people who don't have a clue what bruce lee's philosophy even was
>>740367189Taka has the Big Guy For You schtick.Lion, Shun Di, and Jeffry are the most likely to be cut.
>>740368608What martial art/fighting style you want to see?
>>740368908What was his philosophy?
>is considered the worst game in the series>still has people playing because it has good casual contentIt really is this easy to get people to play your game
>>740369027you should mix the martial arts
>>740369170That doesn’t make it a good game though tbdesu
>>740366381puta madre que asco da el bicho esteoh and that fatass fanboying was so fucking cringeworthy, this game is dead on arrival if they think this is what people want
>>740368093Clive should have been in Soul Calibur (he is literally perfect for it). Tifa should have been a no brainer for Tekken but they probably would have fucked up her character model.
>>740367739:-)Capcom lost again
>>740369269didnt say it was good, I said people play it
>>740369027Basically that martial arts isn’t a one size fits all. He hated that people saw what he did in the movies and took that to mean that’s what his style was when that was just him making it look good for the movies. He was big on there being no “one-size-fits-all” or universal style of fighting. Martial arts as a whole should be tailored to the person doing it. For example, a 300 pounds overweight guy is not going to be able to do the same moves as a fit 130 pound guy, or a 110 pound woman should not be doing things that are meant for 230 pound muscle guys. You have to tailor what each person can do with what they should learn.
>>740363180again. Tifa should be in Tekken. not SF. Clive was a FOTM bad idea.
they sucked the soul out of vf with this
>>740369027first off, the idea of calling jkd a style when he has a book about it and among its values is the idea of self expression, not monkey see monkey do instead of using creative energy if you ask mehe is a nerd, and i hate nerds more than i hate mad agents
>>740369341>they probably would have fucked up her character modeland sf6 won't?
>>740369457Just like his game. Heyo!
>>740362641single player is a tossup.hope the game is good enough for people to give a fuck about the characters because they as visually standard
Considering SF6 world tour has references and easter eggs on old Capcom games like Breath Of Fire and bringing back Final Fight 2 and 3 characters, you guys think VF6 story mode also going to have it too like maybe Fighting Viper characters cameos, Last Bronx, or even fucking Virtua Cop? YAKUZA?
>>740369392But what’s the point of saying it unless you’re like an investor, 200 is still people playing a game especially for a fighting game
>>740369479VF never had a soul, it was microsoft fight simulator
>virtua fighter>there’s no virtua anything>it’s just street fighting????
Well Street Fighter's dead, I've got nothing to really tide me over until the next big batch of fighting games. I'll be buying Tokon and Avatar, I want to try VF but 3D has never agreed with me
This is the first time Virtua Fighter has ever looked interesting.
>>740369691LARPing as an investor is a bunch of people's hobby in here, as you can see.
Probably easy to say with confidence Lau's gone.
>>740365342Brother, your guys are dying out, this is it.Nothing will be the same and you have to accept it.
>"How do you like that, conchudo?"Fucking great, he speaks like an Argentinian... Way to go, writers.
>>740369170I understand your point, but are those people fighting each other
>>740369691>yeah you spent $50 and the game is dead after a month but thats a good thing
>>740369882Pai is already looked like an old hag so it should be obvious Lau is dead. Maybe Pai will have some Lau moves?
>>740369945Latin Americans have played a significant role in the rise of combat sports. Seethe more.
>>740369670I hope they have an arcade where you can play old games like Yakuza does. Really they'll probably recycle a ton of minigames from that series
>>740369976I'd imagine a lot of them probably queue for casuals, and mk1 is also smart where you can get rewards for queuing ranked anyway.
>>740369529The most incredible thing about Clive and his place in Tekken 8 is that Tekken 8 is somehow not the worst game he's in.
>>740370021I meant that it's not something we say here in Paraguay, anon.I'm literally latam, lol
No Jeffry no buy
>>740370051Can you imagine a battlehub thats just the city where you can RP, casually hang out, and play arcade games together? Game would unironically be the flagship of the FGC
>>740365113My biggest concern with it is it being developed by Studio RGG because they have really lost my faith in recent years, but I'd like to see a return to form from them so I hope it and Stranger than Heaven are good.
The SFM community won today.
>>740367839MY FUARKING HEROES... and rock and terry, I guess
I'm getting Kurohyou vibes, and it's looking interesting at the very least.But goddamn it, not a lick of Guarani out of Cielo's mouth? Really?
They should have led the real trailer with the wall graffiti section of the story intro, why the fuck didn't they show that off earlier?
https://store.steampowered.com/app/4412690/Street_Fighter_6__Year_4_Ultimate_Pass/
I wonder if that strip club they teased is gonna be a stage.
maybe playing dead anime kusoges isnt that bad if that is the new shit i was supposed to be excited about
>>740370428Because the focus of the game isn't on the old characters.
I never liked the MMA stuff. Yeah, it's millions of miles more practical irl than those old "mystic" martial arts, but the mystic martial arts have more flair than a double leg takedown into an armbar
>>740369170It is and WB preemptively killed it on purpose, it is only alive because it is recent. And even then MK11 managed to beat their concurrent numbers
>>740370467Not in this industry, it's too sexual.
>>740370236ArcSys has tried to do this like three times. It ends up literally giving us a ghost town. It actually fucking upsets me seeing how cool those hubs are but they end up being devoid of signs of life.
>>740370540I don't care who the focus is on that was one of the coolest things I've seen in a long time.
>>740369829That’s what it seems like yeah
>>740370460Wonder what stage Tifa's going to come with
>>740370236>>740370567It's because those hubs always become a nuisance.I'm sure casuals like running around in those things, but if you actually play online for any amount of time you get sick of all the hub shit and just want a menu to get into a match.
>>740370567Problem is they always do haabo hotel or chibi shit, we need full sized models you can play dress up in like SF6
>>740367348we keep getting latinx characters>laura>diego>azucena>lily>cielo>kof xiii's team south america
>>740362641dogshitfa
>>740370768They didn't mentioned a stage...
>>740362641Don't care, if it's not on fightcade I'm not playing your kusoge.
>>740367505>vanessa is one of their most popular characters>replace him with a tatted up paraguayan goonwhy
>>740370834>kof xiv*
>>740365251Shun Di and Lau are probably fucking dead lmao, besides that pic related are most likely gone as well, which leaves 14, Sarah might be also gone since they've shown that Stella is kind of her replacement, that leaves only 1 dude to be replaced to give way for the 4 newcomers.
>>740367886autistically cute!
>>740370924I used her spam my way to victory in Lost Judgementthat was funmainly because she gives me boners
>>740370864Yeah but they're not gonna release Tifa with nothing else, there's no way they don't have a stage for her even if it's T7 Noctis levels of flat parking lot
>>740370967I genuinely do not understand the point of Stella being 1:1 with Sarah beyond "Oh Sarah is too old to show off and we're not retarded like NRS to make people who main her play a granny version of her".
>>740370967I think they'll give the drunken fist gimmick to a new character. I really hope it's the woman in the suit but that's my dick talking.
>>740370967shit wrong reply I meant to answer to >>740366292
>>740371054Damn hopefully
I’m far from a VF expert but it does seem that the core of VF’s gameplay is untouched and what they’re doing to try and attract a new audience is based on content and presentation.
I think they did a shit job with the character designs atm.
>>740370390
>>740371339what am I even looking at here
Since they’re so big on the narrative can someone recap what happened. All I remember is>VF1 Kage’s mother gets kidnapped and turned into Dural>Lau wins, I think>VF2 Sarah and Jacky are experimented on>I think Akira won>VF3 I have no idea what the fuck happened, I think Sarah is the new Dural>VF4 Vanessa is investigating the organization behind Dural, and she becomes the new Dural??>Jeffrey wins>VF5 Dural is some mysterious entity, and now the organization is destroyed but somehow the Dural project continues?>I think Akira wins again>VF6We are here
>>740371269a smart decision, this game would of been DOA if it was just VF6
>>740371407a boxing event that was sponsored by snk
>>740371269>abandon your core audience to chase a new oneHas this EVER worked? Why are companies still insisting on it?
>>740371315Judging by Akira, Pai and Wolf they are most likely making the story characters look more like jobbers to make them contrast with the veterans looking all cool and shiny to fit their seemingly "legend" status
>>740371423All five games so far is technically all about Kage and Dural like Kage is THE FUCKING PROTAGONIST. Crazy.
>>740371495It worked with Monster Hunter World and Street Fighter 6. Now the lasting effects are another story.
>>740371269>it does seem that the core of VF’s gameplay is untouchedYeah I'm expecting to get my ass absolutely beat
I think Cielo sucks
>>740371587That can’t be right, right? I thought Sarah and Jacky were main characters. The only thing I do know is that Akira is not the main character and loses most of the tournament despite being the poster boy.
>>740371495strive
>>740371495Anon VF has never been stylistically appealing it was all about good gameplay and nice shiny graphics for the era, new VF is already blowing every other VF out of the water aesthetically lmfao
>>740371495>Has this EVER worked?Yes.
>>740371686Just change his hair in literally any way and I'd think better of him. I don't know who thinks that hairstyle looks good, and I've never seen anyone actually do that he looks dumb
>>740371269>but it does seem that the core of VF’s gameplay is untouchedYeah, I remember when VF had>weird glowing limb damage mechanics>tons of slowdown>a story mode that's basically just Yakuza>a million exploding particle effects on hits>long cinematic attack animations
>>740371495They aren't abandoning anyone, they correctly realized that fighting games can be and need to be more if they want to survive. In this specific case it works even better than what SF6 did because VF is a natural 3d movement game, the combat system can function anywhere so why not attach it to a bigger gameplay system? Now you get VF as well as a single player action game that has all the benefits of the VF fighting game systems.Obviously it still has to be GOOD, but the idea is a genre saving one.
>>740368608But wasn't Diego the best?
>>740371976And they really got the aesthetics down with all the washed out colors, blood and people saying fuck every other sentence.
>>740371495"""Street Fighter""" Dix is the furthest away from Street Fighter the series has ever been and it keeps breaking its own records. You tell me. Also modern """Monster Hunter""" like >>740371617 mentioned.
>>740370967Fuck I hope Eileen isn’t gone. :(
I'm just baffled why they didn't stick with Akira as the MC. Why the fuck would you pivot to a shit design in Ciello
>>740371073its weird because they genuinely aged pai up, which is more than what i was expecting. they couldn't figure out how to age up a white woman?
>>740371710Well I don't know much of Virtua Fighter story aside from J6 being the le evil organization trying to make the perfect being or fighter which is Dural and Kage was trying to stop them. And that's been five games so it kinda feels like Kage is the actual protagonists.
looks tuff
I refuse to belive that anons would larp as VF purists. VF was the most shit and bland fighting franchise until now.You retards really think that just making VF5 again would be aything other than a massive flop?
what's all this talk about my nigga Jeffrey? gotta have the IiIIIIiiiii WIIIiiiin guy
>>740371892This. God I hate that hair!
>>740371976Besides the shiny vfx virtua fighter has always had cinematic shit, their grabs have always gone hard, the story mode thingie is honestly cool as well, it's not like VF is foreign to the concept of a more developed single player campaign with 4 and 5 having really cool attempts at one.
>>740372031>They aren't abandoning anyoneI don't think >>740372326 and >>740366470 are aiming for the same audience.
TITfa
Hopefully there'll be a CLUB SEGA with minigames, only that this time it's some grocery store handled by an old woman who just happens to have 90s cabinets lying around.
>>740365251>My brother, aside from Akira, who usually looks like Mr. Karate to the casual, that's the apt description for Virtua Fighter as a whole.Nah, VF's charactes were still distinctive. You're going to tell me that characters like Geoffrey, Wolf or Aoi look like NPCs? These look like normal people.
>>740372347for your information i'm a vf4 larper, tyvm
>>740372643More sega model 3 games and sega Naomi games too. Sega Lindbergh games would be a bonus.
>>740372515>Every fighting game needs to be shackled to the original characters forever>They are never allowed to create new characters>Every new game in the series will have the same roster foreverIt's time to grow up
>>740372478>Besides the shiny vfx virtua fighter has always had cinematic shit
>>740372651>generic Caribbean black man>generic Native American>generic Japanese ladyYeah
there has never been a good mma guy in a fighting game
>>740372347I am both a VF purist but also recognize that this is the best bet for it to reclaim the top spot.
>>740372868Then create new ones. Don’t take exiting movesets associated with legacy characters and slap them on new ones just for the sake of being new.
>>740372870That looks boring as fuck
>>740372893If they can make judo work, they can make MMA work
>>740365808>yeah, even the sf6 fighter pass was shit.SF6 basically hit the point where Capcom knew they had the braindead normalfag audience so there's no reason put in any effort. No more World Tour shit. Garbage characters nobody wants. Balance will never be fixed so Mai and Ed and JP will remain overtuned and Lily and Manon will remain worthless, etc.
>>740372893I absolutely refuse to call it mma. It’s vale tudo and it will always be vale tudo. Inb4 but vale tudo is literally just mma. I don’t care. It’s vale tudo to me.
>>740372893Wrong, Marduk is the perfect representation of an MMA fighter
>>740372231Yeah, you get it. Its fucking weird. Stella shoulda just been her own character at that point.
>>740365113As someone who never touched 3d fighters because literally the only option was Tekken i'm pretty interested.
>>740373080Also a vale tudo fighter.
>>740362641is it like shaolin monks or an actual fighting games with Nu Mortal kombat movie?
>sidequests and minigamesCan't wait for the 'make tereré' minigame
>>740372893Put some respect on LukeGAWD
>>740372231Is the fat guy that shouted>THAT'S PAIgoing to be playable
Will this game havw a mahjong minigame? I will buy it if so
>>740372893It's because MMA is perceived as a more realistic, practical, and modern style so they create characters that are more down to Earth and normal, which inevitably makes them dull as dishwater next to your typical fighting freak. The unfortunate part is MMA is full of absolute weirdos for inspiration but no one ever really bothers, just make another generic zoomer guy with no personality.
>>740372957You just sound annoying bro, sorry, you will never be happy you just want to complain. Relax, enjoy it, don't be so upset at everything.
>>740373468Wouldn't be an RGG game without Mahjong
>>740373005They can't because MMA is not a real style. They'e better off just doing "brawling" or some shit.
>>740373502>you will never be happy you just want to complainJust consume new product.
>>740371495It’s easier to count the times it hasn’t worked
Kyokushin is a based as fuck unga bunga fighting style that's even from Japan and yet the Japanese refuse to make a main character that uses it outside of Jin, who also uses magic so it doesn't count
This game looks sick. No notes outside of it needing a more interestingly designed UI if it’s going to do a flat look that looks exactly like Street Fighter 6.
The FGC is full of miserable fucks and the genre needs to get away from them ASAP if it actually wants to live.
>>740372876One of the most iconic SF characters is a chick in a generic school uniform. What's your point?
>>740373240Luke fucking SUCKED in SFV, they saved him in 6 by moving away from the tatted up MMA stuff
>>740373731Sure but Final Fantasy guest characters are too far in the other direction
>>740373650>no karate character in tekken until 4>no karate character in sf until third strike>no karate character in doa until 3>no karate character in vf until 5Japan is weirdly averse to true karate characters for some reason
>>740373240Luke fucking SUCKED in SFV, and then, in a way that I genuinely cannot even understand, they made him even MORE of an obnoxious looking, retarded faggot in 6Truly one of the worst things to ever come out of Street Fighter. The fact that Capcom thinks this piece of shit can or should be a replacement for Ryu is repulsive.
SF6 is an abomination. I cannot wait for the day this game dies, although I know 7 will likely be even worse considering the horrible lessons they've learned from 6.
>>740373925But Mishima is a style of karate. It’s in the name. Mishima style karate.
My VF never-ever is Kai from Force Five. Her design stood out among the rest of the cast, though they would probably have to change her arsenal since in that game, she fulfills Akira's role as the Bajiquan user, and projectiles are a no-go in VF.
>>740373024>>740373187Dude, not even in Brasil people call it vale tudo.Btw, can't fucking wait for VF. Focusing on proper single player for a fighting game will pay off tremendously. Mortal Kombat and Smash are the best selling fighting games of all time and mostly because o SP.It will also act as a giant tutorial to newcomers so online won't feel too overwhelming.
>>740374016>Mortal Kombat and Smash are the best selling fighting games of all time and mostly because o SP.Both games also fucking suck to actually play.
>>740374016>Mortal Kombat and Smash are the best selling fighting games of all time and mostly because o SP.SF6 too, to the point that I'm pretty sure more people are in battlehub avatar pits and world tour than ranked. In Japan at least
>>740374016I'm not an investor. I want a good fighting game, not good sales.
>>740374016That’s because it’s watered down now with no eyepokes, groin attacks, head kicks, or headbutts.
Looks neat.For Virtua Fighter, anyway.
You know they still haven't mentioned about online modes yet let alone rollback and crossplay iirc?
>>740374162Too bad. Investors won so hard that even gamers larp as investors now.
>>740371495literally every fighting game
>>740374250The single player is the focus of the game.
>>740374108Yeah, seriously. I have no idea how the step back from 3D to “If you make a fighting game in a 3D engine, it HAS to be in a 2D plane” happened. I’m a 2D artist, and I also do sprite art, and it’s totally acceptable for a game with actual 2D graphics like Skullgirls or Lethal League 1 to ship like that, but when you sell me a 3D game, you need to let me fight on 3D axes. Recent games have even proven that you can incorporate 2D gameplay into a 3D game with 3D movement (see Mario Wonder), so this shouldn’t be an issue.
>>740374336And that's very kewl.
>>740371495>>740374335*except DoA
>>740374162If a game has no sales, you don't get anyone to play against retard.Go play VF5- oh wait, you can't because it sold like shit and is a dead game with nothing else to do in it.
>>740374415DOA6?
>>740373992The entire current generation of fighting games is an abomination. Slime Fighter Dix, Kekken 8, King of Flops, Fortnite of the Wolves, Jive, they all suck shit. I'm fully expecting VF6 to have some shitty mechanic that dominates the entire game and makes it unfun too.
>>740374515KOFXV is a great game.
>>740374508it worked for every fighting game except DoA
>>740374515>I'm fully expecting VF6 to have some shitty mechanic that dominates the entire game and makes it unfun too.They would have shown it by now. Also, CoTW wasn’t bad because of the new mechanics, it was bad because it was 2D.
couldve put Tifa in Tekken, Virtua Fighter, Soul Calibur, literally anything but they choose soi fighter
>>740374580If you'e a LaAm or Chinaman who loves apehopping jumping light spam into flashy and large meter dump combos sure.
>>740374653There is the new limb break mechanics that was shown in the previous gameplay trailer.
>>740374515Closest thing is that weird guard break thing they have now
>>740374653>it was bad because it was 2DFatal Fury is a 2D fighter franchise.
Game does look pretty good visually. Probably the best looking non-anime fighter
they shut down fightcade?
>>740373998Yeah but its bullshit karate, I mean karate that's grounded and traditional
>>740374653>They would have shown it by now.99% of the presentation was story mode shit. When they actually have a real gameplay showcase of the actual fighting game portion of it fully expect some kind of shit mechaic. I have zero hope in anything anymore, the genre is completely fucked right now.
>>740374879total unc death
Has the Chinese mafia ever even mattered in the first five VFs? This story looks so disconnected from the tournament/Dural stuff.
I wish someone would just add rollback to USF4 already. I've always wanted to get into that game, now more than ever.Or fucking fix the SFV netcode, I actually like that game too. But it's unpleasant to play now that the population is so small and the online is bad.
>paraguay
>>740362641Doing a proper RGG Studio single-player campaign was a great call, this is the one thing where Virtua Fighter could handily beat Street Fighter and its dogshit single player. We'll see how it plays out, but Sega is definitely taking this game seriously.>>740365342They don't need to show gameplay, VF is the most conservative fighting game of them all, you already know exactly how it will play.
>>740374923>99% of the presentation was story mode shit.Because that actually sells the game,
>>740374879Huh? Since when?
>>740374781>Limb Break mechanic>Literally and gradually locks most of your movelists, tools and optionsGood or bad?
>>740374879No?
i like women in suits
>>740374935>>740375049>>740375053it seems so since there's nothing but larpers and subhumans acting like old fighting games are impossible to pick up and play
>>740374726You don't play KoF XV (or any fighting game for that matter) please shut the fuck up.
>>740375052Bad. The gameplay was already perfect. I don’t know why they feel the need to add things nobody asked for.
>>740375052Don’t get hit and it won’t matter.
>>740374939Maybe they have connections with the J6?
>>740375139I guess. Only thing that makes sense.
>>740374190i mean that stuff's been gone almost 30 years at this point, you've gotta be 50+ to still be hung up on that shit.
3D fighters are in a prime spot for someone to take over. The monopoly Tekken held on the genre for such a long time is absolutely gone, and Tekken might just be dead for a while in general. With VF being the only notable 3D fighting game I can think of coming up we might have a new king
I suddenly really wanna go on Fightcade and play Third Strike…
>>740375101/v/ has a rich history of pretending to play old fighting games but not actually doing that because old fighting games either suck or are only enjoyable if you're massively autistic.
>>740365113As a single-player scrub, I'm super excited and I've actually wanted this type game for a while now.
shun-di will still be alive somehow
>>740375224How did they manage to fuck Tekken up so badly? T5 and Dark Resurrection were genre-defining games at the time, even back when they were still sitting on T3. They could have just ported DR every few years for a while, but they put so much money and effort into making T6, T7, and T8, which, ultimately, NO ONE likes.
>>740374939I don't think any of that J6 stuff will matter anymore
how will she fight
The way to go is just to pack the single player mode with as much content and other shit like minigames as possible and then relegate the sweaty online mode to the back.Any DLC should be story expansions instead of stupid season pass shit where you pay $30 for a handful of characters.
>>740375362Probably get replaced by a student or grandson or a granddaughter would be better. Haven't seen a female drunken master iirc? Honoka doesn't count.
giganiga
>>740374601then DoA is finally the chosen one, itagaki will smile beyond the grave that he was 100% correct
>>740375169I dunno. I just liked it better when it was gritty and not cleaned up like how the west did. The fighters are treated like sports stars now and are celebrities and do movie cameos and shit. It’s too clean. I liked it when Latin America was seen as a lawless place where anything can happen and these fights were like life or death. Now it’s just a less produced version of UFC and all the good fighters eventually go to the west.
>>740375467Can we have ONE new fighting game where all the content is on the disc and they don’t need to recoup costs through bullshit?
>>740375409Tried too hard to appeal to fgc and esports retards.
>>740375472In fighting games*
>>740375442New Aoi>>740375510New BradI’m calling it
>We've had many different game IPs ask for Tifa
>>740374162We need both. Considering they resurrected VF5 with EVO and even updated some small things, I am pretty confident they will nail the gameplay aspect.Imagine living in a world where VF becomes the main event on EVO. >>740374136SF6 single player is kinda whatever, with Jonh Street fighter.
>>740374601>>740375512Didn't break meter fucked the series?
>>740365113It looks like a fighting game where I never have to deal with fighting faggots online so 10/10 so far.
>>740371495It sadly worked for Strive.
yeah not feeling this dude
>>740375086Same
>>740372347I mean, I hope to God the people bitching about resources in fighting games aren't fucking larping as SF2 purists.
>>740375264I'm just playing against someone else bro, there's nothing autistic about the core of the genre, maybe newgods need to stop seething at losing
>>740372651I mean to me and you but I am literally talking about the mouthbreathing casual mainstreamer. I have NO IDEA what appeals to those fuckers beyond MK and even then, that confuses me because MK has aesthetically gotten less recognizable with time, and now they don't look like the characters the mainstream fell in love with.
There will now be a Tifa Steet Fighter Ryona compilation.
>>740366381the one good thing about 3d fighting games is that if you dont like how your character looks, you can make them look extra retarded instead
>>740375959Literally my mom.
>>740376037I wish SF6 had done this with all the avatar nonsense, let me make custom outfits for Chun Li and Cammy
>>740376064If your mom looks like that, give me her phone number.
>>740374515>I'm fully expecting VF6 to have some shitty mechanic that dominates the entire game and makes it unfun too.Please don't jinx it. Its our only hope on fighting games.Street Fighter 6 tried to combine all previous mechanics and it's a complete mess. Capcom only makes money on the characters pass because otherwise, it would be a dead game long ago.
>>740374781>>740375052is this confirmed? They still have to explain the blue defense and red attack.
>>740376064no way
>>740375781I CAN'T ESCAPE SF6 JAMIE
>>740376270Yeah I don’t know if they’re still keeping it since I didn’t see it in this trailer but if you take too much damage in certain spots form certain attacks, it damages that section and leads to debuffs. I think if you damage their head enough it leads to a cinematic KO or something.
>>740376428The funny thing is, them ripping off SF6 might actually work, because SF6 isn't fun to play like this is going to be.
>>740368084vf5 sold incredibly for a ps3 fighting game WITH NO FUCKING ONLINE
This will be the closest thing to a new Shenmue I get and I'll take it
>New VF shows that they made the revolutionary discovery of having cutscenes>Anons think that VF will now overthrow Tekken and become the biggest fighting game everI also remember when /v/ was convinced that DNF Duel was totally going to kill Guilty Gear Strive.
>>740366486I think I see where the inspiration for the suit chick came from. Pic related was being shown around, at least two months before VF6 was announced at Game Awards 2024, as a VF dev character mood board supposedly taken from a Sega leak hinting at the JSR and Crazy Taxi remake.
>>740376658it has a full-blown story mode thoughalso I don't know if you're aware that tekken is currently imploding
UHHHH JOSIEBROS???TALIMBROS???WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS?
>>740376270https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8HwrVtTwtcI>A round victory is achieved by either fully depleting an opponent's health bar or by forcing them to ring out. There will also be an "Uprising" rule that can be toggled that "introduces dynamic momentum-shifting opportunities, offering a new gameplay concept that stands apart from standard rules." We'll have to wait for more information to find out about the "Uprising" ruleset.>The "Break & Rush" battle system also gets highlighted. As specific regions of a character's body takes repeated hits, they'll be opened up for a "targeted break." Upon striking with a break attack, the opponent will be put in a significant disadvantage. It's even stated that this "broken" status will carry over between rounds. According to the developers, there are three regions that can accumulate damage like this: the head, the body and the legs. >As damage is accumulated in a region like this, that region will begin to glow RED. Once that region has reached its maximum damaged state, the player character will be at risk for getting opened up by a break attack.>the "Flow Guard" defensive mechanic the BLUE one is also demonstrated. The developers are quick to point out that this is different from a regular guard.
>>740376606There were many attractive women in this trailer
>>740376658Tekken is the weakest it's ever been, I guarantee Tekken diehards will flock to VF6, it's just a question if they can retain that mythical casual audience that SF6 caught
>>740376807Is she really filipino?
>>740376807Why are the flip reps in fightan games always delicious brown women?
>>740376851>I guarantee Tekken diehards will flock to VF6
>>740376851>, I guarantee Tekken diehards will flock to VF6Nah
>>740376807wild brown tomboy enjoyers WE WON
>>740375529i've been watching since the NHB days in the mid 90s but I knew post 2005 hit the sport would never go back to how it used to be.
>>740375101I'm white so I have no reason to use fightcade.
>>740376851>I guarantee Tekken diehards will flock to VF6lollmao even
>>740376903indeed
>>740376807I like her design but Im gonna be SO fucking mad if this means were gonna get Makoto even later now because they overlap
>>740376851>I guarantee Tekken diehards will flock to VF6?????
>>740376851Virtua Fighter plays nothing like Tekken.
>>740377065>delicious brown tomboy JK whos actually shy and demureKINOOOOOOOO
>>740377065>Tifa>Shoto>AGAIN
>>740377027Press release implies she's very speedy and uses that weapon in her hand a lot so her gameplay won't overlap with Makoto at all.
Love Tifa.
>>740377065Does every indian fighter in fighting games needs to always have Yoga? No Potemkin doesn't count.
>Kung PaoI implore you to reconsider.
>>740377373why the fuck is baiken a giant
>>740377065Fucking BOSCH is the last SF6 character
>>740377373Who's the left one? Hitomi?
>>740377457>cool stoic karate man MC gets replaced by a wisecracking MMA zoomer covered in tattoosVF is just copying SF's homework at this point.
>>740377537yes
I'm still hoping we get a boxer in VF
>>740377603SF6 is the only successful fighting game right now, so you can't really blame them.
>>740377537Yep. For context, see Dead Fantasy by Monty Oum (RWBY creator, Rest in Peace) where Tifa fights Hitomi.
>>740365113it feels like they took in street fighters art direction too much, it's lost a lot of its original visual identity. other than that, it looks fine. all it really made me want was a proper shenmue game though
>>740377457I hope we can change literally everything about him so I don't have to look at him as he is
>>740377457The font words on Cielo's pants hmmmm
arjun feels like he's gonna be a charge character, or am i coping? like he holds his breath in while in charge
>>740377818there have been zero new charge characters
I'm not sold at the tone of the game, they may think spicing things up and adding hard swearing will make the story more "mature", but at the same time that feels childish for a franchise this tame, that M rating feels wasted like with FF XVI.
>>740377858yeah thats why i think its gonna be him
>>740365565Part of VF's appeal were the graphics being good/cutting edge. 1st 3D Fighter and all.
>>740377457The dialogue in all the cutscenes they showed was fucking terrible.
>>740377858In fact the one charge character they kept in the DLCs, Bison, had charge moves removed
>>740376658tekken is on fire to the extent that we're not even sure who is still making the game.i dont know if a purist vf is what tekkenfags want or if casualfags even want another fighting game at all but this is absolutely the best window there's ever been for another 3d fighter to make a move
>>740377893nah they're even taking charge away from legacy characters like bison and alex. charge will probably be dead entirely in SF7
Yasmine's forehead frightens meIt looks good in the illustration and trailerBut I fucking fear what the RE engine is gonna do to it
>>740377373Art of Tifa getting double-teamed by Chun & Mai is gonna be all over the place and that's the best part of her inclusion.
>>740376903you couldnt tell by the flag she's wearing
>>740377818arjun is balloon cop. he's gonna play like karnov
>Haven't gotten sf6 yet. Waited for Makoto.>Year 4.>Tifa and Yasmine, 2 girls of similar build.I have accepted it. She's likely never coming. Guess I'll try Yasmine since she'll come in a couple of months. She looks pretty cool.
>>740377163>also a broconliterally akira
>>740378102>>740378024lmao i hope she doesnt get that weird fucking 5head kimberly and lilly got
>>740378080Damn my bad.
>>740377603But everyone LOVED Diego from DOA!
>>740378102So you never actually cared about Makoto or how she played, you just wanted a tomboy to satiate your gay fetish.
>>740377921there are technically no true charge characters in sf6, even guile has a motion move now with sonic blade
>>740378243this post was written with tears streaming down ya face
>>740368980NTA, but straight up Boxing in VF6
>>740368980krav maga
>>740378243>or how she playedBold of you to assume that people actually used her
>>740378102She has a knife huh? So who's playstyle is she gonna be closest to?
>>740368980tickle fighter
I don't get the impression VF6 even wants to be a real fighting game. The fighting seems like one of those tacked-on modes and there's a toggle for the new gimmicks. It seems like they're hedging their bets rather than committing and both versus states (new stuff on or off) will suffer for it.
>>740378490people are saying ibuki, but i don't think so. i bet she plays closer to something like chipp zanuff or x-23 from mvc3
>>740378314I will bet this is the big black guys fighting style
>>740368980Pencak Silat>But NiCO from DOA-Pure Indonesian Pencak Silat fighter
>>740378514>I don't get the impression VF6 even wants to be a real fighting game.They did straight up say that the main focus is in the narrative.
>>740378565>>740378490the website says her fighting style is eskrima/silat+the karambitfeels like a bogstandard rushdown to me
What's his chances for making it back in?
>>740378243Meh, all my other games are dead and take like 10 min to find a match. Meanwhile sf6 keeps upping player count. And its on discount right now. 20€ isn't that bad.
>>>/vg/569578252that's right, capcultists are just PRETENDING to like s4 to get the upperhand on tekken fags
>>740378098kino
>>740378514The amount of time they spent showing cutscenes and parts that had nothing to do with the fighting compared to the brief minute they spent talking about the gameplay makes it pretty clear where the priority is.
>>740374519the one on the right has to be a woman
>>740378243Makoto is cute, but I know nothing else about her lol
>>740378514>>740378774Its just smarter to market the story mode for casuals.
SF6 keeps winning.
while i dont mind the direction vf is going in, it does make me a bit sad that it isnt as goofy as earlier entries. because there even less of a chance of a fighters megamix happeningand i wonder if they plan on selling those controllers they showed in the video
>no longer the main character Games dead. Wheres DOA7
>>740378929SF6 is so fucking bad. I can only hope that in 10 years everyone looks back at the SF6 era and thinks "why the fuck did we all pretend like that game was perfect". It's mass psychosis.
>>740378659Wolf has some of his moves, its overHOT DOG
why does capcom hate alpha
>>740379109they want a different roster from 5 vs 6 clearly, and 5 basically had the whole alpha cast
>>740379018SF6 is going to go down as one of the most influential fighting games of all time.We're seeing it right now with VF6 where you need to have a big single player mode to even have a shot at success.
>>740379018It's socially unacceptable to have a dissenting opinion about something new in a beloved classic video game series and has been for the better part of a decade now. You will unironically get called a racist for pointing out how shitty SF6 is.
>>740379109They seem to hate every game that isn't SF2
>>740379018SF6 is the most popular fighting game of this generation by a mile anon
>>740376812It's so ogre. It'll wind up being yet another game that favors retarded caveman gameplay.
>>740379205its fine to hate sf6 bro, a lot of people do, its just weird to post about how much you hate it every single day over 100 times. i think you actually like the game
>>740372868>>Every fighting game needs to be shackled to the original characters foreverYes. Correct.>They are never allowed to create new charactersNo. Wrong.>Every new game in the series will have the same roster foreverYes, correct.Did you learn nothing from "functions?"
>>740379305I definitely want to like it. I loved Devil May Cry 5, and it definitely has some strengths, but it's complete trash overall and I have never returned to it.
>>740379301Yes, I'm fully aware. And I can't figure out why, other than the fact that they made it incredibly easy and homogenized.
>>740379109Alpha was too heterosexual
>Function debate incoming>AGAIN
>>740373024In that case: Vanessa is already there. So this guy isn't a "new MMA" character.
Virtua Fighter is saved.Remember to thank SF6 VFfags.
>>740365113I was a little concerned about the "the game takes place in this city" thing because would that mean there's a lack of visual variety in the stages? VF has always been top tier with those. So much colour and life to the environments. The game has great realism, I just hope it doesn't go too far and takes away from the colours.
>>740373765I could scribble out a SF character and they'd be instantly recognizablein fact I already didthat's the difference
Thanks SF6
>>740379018It feels like people are just overcompensating because launch SF6 is an actual complete albeit sub-par game vs. launch SF5 which was an incomplete and shitty game at launch. The difference is that with SF5 they actually improved with each update from he shitty launch to the point where it became a decent game with probably the best roster an SF game has ever had. SF6 launched as a mediocre game, got figured out quickly, and Capcom has no incentive to improve it because the normalfags will throw down money on avatar items so it will remain the same sub-par piece of shit it's been since day 1 and doesn't even have a cool roster to make up for it.And because of money nobody's willing to go back to 5 or 4 or anything beyond meme game Third Strike.
>>740374016>It will also act as a giant tutorial to newcomers so online won't feel too overwhelming.Except this direct is showing they AREN'T teaching players proper VF gameplay. They're mixing "VF gameplay" with adventure Shenmue/Yakuza gameplay and having multiple characters fighting you at the same time a la Yakuza. To where the only "proper" VF gameplay there is learning to block incoming.The direct isn't inspiring confidence in this with me, especially with R.E.V.O.s post-release actions on PC.
>>740379497>vanessa and brad are being cut for this douchebagi hate it
>>740379598I miss her so much. I don't know if I can stand another 10 years of this tacky ugly game.
>>740379658VF6 isn't for you.
>>740379018Who's calling it perfect? Everybody who plays and likes it that I see still has some issues with it whether it's the power of certain systems, the fact that Mai is seemingly un-nerfable, or the slow content feed. I'll take it over the SFV era any day of the week, and anybody who says otherwise is probably only thinking of SFV as its final state which took 5+ years of constant panicked work from a team desperate to make up for its horrible launch to get there. The only thing I miss about V is way more costumes, but I guess making one for every character every season instead of 20 for Chun & Juri bottlenecked their design pipeline.
>>740379624It really is tragic what happened to Capcom now that they don't have to try. If the World Tour meme hadn't been such a huge hit with normalfags, we COULD HAVE gotten a good SF6 by now.
>>740369527Mai looks good
CotW keeps losing.
>>740379624>And because of money nobody's willing to go back to 5 or 4 or anything beyond meme game Third Strike.and because of bad netcode, i'd play usf4 online if it had as good of netcode as 6. no other fg has ever had netcode as good as 6s which carries it a lot
looks like kage
>>740379826>and anybody who says otherwise is probably only thinking of SFV as its final stateSFV was better than Dix as early as the end of Season 1, and especially by the time Arcade Edition hit The costumes were nice but the roster was also so much better it's not even funny, and we got 6 characters per season instead of 4
>The difference is that with SF5 they actually improved with each update from he shitty launch to the point where it became a decent game with probably the best roster an SF game has ever hadNo way that's true, you rose tinted glasses idiot
>>740379109The lack of Cody & Sakura at this point is insane. I'd also think that Dudley, Sean, and Poison would be easy picks as well but none of them yet either. Eagle, Menat, Gill, Hakan, G & another Rival Schools character (not Akira again, I'd just go with Daigo, Kyosuke or Kyoko) would be cool as well but I'm not holding my breath. Nadeshiko getting in with Mika as her striker would be based as well.
>>740380145But have you considered that instead of adding any of those, we add three brown people from southeast Asia wearing a gi?
>>740380112Name a SF game with a better roster.
>>740380112NTA but sf5's final roster is really good, shame about the rest of the game tho
>>740380417SFV plays better than SF6.
>>740380210I think Yasmine & Arjun are cool actually. Bosch's time was Season 1 or 2, nobody cares about him now that we're years removed from people hitting credits on World Tour, and Tifa is SF finally breaking the same glass every single other fighting game has broken in terms of guest characters (since Terry & Mai have a lot of history with Capcom). If it was Yasmine, Arjun, Cody & Poison or something like that I'd love this season.
>>740380464i disagree anon, but its just opinion. we all have ours
>>740379968CotW is basically everything wrong with this generation of fighting games in one package.>impenetrable gameplay with high skill floor plus awful graphics for the moderrn SNK experience>burnout and EX spam for the Dix experience>new characters are dog shit, character redesigns suck, terrible soundtrack, really the whole presentation sucks>guest characters>>740379983Good netcode won't bring back more than a handful of dedicateds. I liked Project Justice but it's not like availablity and decent netcode caused people to pick it up again. Current FGC basically has a terrible mindset that the only games that matter are new ones because that's where all the prize money is.>>740380145People keep coping and thinking they're holding out characters like Sakura because they think it'll boost sales but Season 4 shows they don't give a shit. They're not making money on the actual fighting game players who want X or Y characters, they're making money off of normalfags and the retards who blindly follow what vtubers/streamers shill and those people only give a shit about costumes and avatar stuff so Capcom is under no pressure to put in characters anyone actually wants now. Have fun with Season 5 when you get Geki, Shin Blanka, Necalli and the dude getting punched out in the SF2 intro as a joke character.
>>740380625>Season 4 shows they don't give a shitno i think it shows they do give a shit more than you think. they put the newcomers in the tifa year because it would dampen the blow. not only that but next year is SF's 40th anniversary, which they have been on record about saying they want to do something really big for (i'm guessing this is SSF6). basically, this is a filler year
>>740380625CorW is the worst fighting game this decade.
>>740369985>yeah the game isn't dead there's 10000 people playing, see? Aren't you glad we dedicated half of the dev resources to the singleplayer so it's not only 100 concurrent?>oh, but they're all playing the singleplayer shit so you can't play against themSO THERE'S NO DIFFERENCE YOU RETARD IT MIGHT AS WELL HAVE 100 PLAYERS
>>740381442single player is how you ease casuals into getting more involved in ranked, if you have nothing to bring them over in the first place whats the point?
>>740381763>single player is how you ease casuals into getting more involved in rankedthis has historically never happenedmiyamoto learned this lesson hard with the wiicasuals will NEVER leave their comfort zone
>>740381880It doesn't matter if casuals move on to ranked or not, all that matters is that line go up.
>>740376851Tekken players and VF gameplay are like potassium and water, they don't mix, in fact they hate it
>>740376658>I also remember when /v/ was convinced that DNF Duel was totally going to kill Guilty Gear Strive.Duke Nukem Forever Duel totally did kill Guilty Gear Strive, though.
