Start playing fighting games again
I never stopped.
>>751450113you cant tell me what to do bastard
playing against strangers online is not fun
>>751450479Yeah. fighting games were made for the arcade and for 2+ people playing on the same couch. It's the same reason why modern FPSes are shit: the single player content is anemic and the multiplayer is geared towards online, which gets rid of the mindgames and other shit that only works in person. Not to mention it's just more fun bantering with your niggas while playing SoulCalibur than starting at your screen getting mentally touched.
we can play together on my bed if you'd like
>>751450113I own SF6 and was going to pick up Ingrid and buy a leverless and go serious mode then they:1. did that fucking psyop demoralization match between old drunk washed up Daigo and Menard the obese mutt zoomer BR who plays Blanka, who obviously won (only barely in places), which to me was essentially meant to signal "your time is over boomers, we don't want you"2. they announced the next pass, which is 3 fucking Indians and TIFA (fuck off)3. it's still SF6, it has green slime and 1 frame 1 button supers with Modernand every other fighting game is some combination of: shit, not an actual fighting game, has no fucking playerbase, made exclusively for trannies
>>751450113>againThey where always too difficult for me...
>>751450657playing in a 24 man server with mics is great. fighting games are 1v1 and almost never have voice chat

>>751456916hop on melty
>>751450113Cannot enjoy online FG not only because of latency, but also because i think it's kind of soulless. I straight up can not find joy in playing FG online, but i have no issues playing multiplayer games online.I genuinely can only enjoy fighting games if i play locally, with the guy i'm fighting with by my side so we can talk and all.Too bad i've got no one to play with.... Feels like a curse.

I never started. But I'm thinking of picking up blazblue...
>>751461310anything anime is exclusively for trannies and always has been, these people didn't come out of nowhere. i remember going to a local in like 2010 and the gg players were all androgynous homos with painted nails

What's the /v/erdict? Did they save Tekken yet?
when they stop adding cutscenes in the middle of combatremoving characters from previous gamesruining characters with shit redesignsand go back to unlocking stages/characters and not locking stuff with DLCalso when they stop doing that shit of >hit enemy>animations stop for 5 seconds
>>7514634355 seconds is a big exaggeration and you're a faggot
does sf6 have matchmaking issues? i've been in queue for like 10 minutes straight
>>751458125Bro i would just walk away from the local if that was my line up 50 brazil reals or whatever the prize money was is not worth fighting these cancerous oki flowchart dispensers
>>751450113My therapist told me I need to find friends and find my "tribe", so I thought about trying to do the fighting game thing again. Might reinstall SF6 but idk if I'm ever gonna be a good Guile player and that was all I ever wanted to do in that game
>>751450113never happening, fighting game players dont actually like fighting games they love bitching about them because they're all scrubs
>>751464386just watch replays and take it slow
>>751450113Haven't stopped since 2024
Okay seriously, why did this not stick at all? like the only ones I've ever seen play or talk about 2xko are already existing fighting game degen and people that were probably hoping to get a career out of it, but the average person? no one, so many people genuinely didn't know it released and now when people mention 2xko it's only because they don't think the MMO will come out, which fair but still.Zero actual impact, why?
>>751464689no advertising
>>751464689>Terrible Name = Self-imposed limits to marketing>Mixed signals with "beginner friendly!" vs "ToDs and assist degeneracy">Severely overestimating audience overlap with existing League titles>Most boring roster possible>Took too damn long to come out
>>751464689Extremely degenerate, new player unfriendly gameplay.Little to no marketing, a weird multistage release where nobody fucking knew what was the alpha or the beta or the real game and which platforms is was or wasn't coming out on and when.
>>751450113I'm too employed for fighting games.
>>751464689It's boring and doesn't know what it wants to be Despite the polished graphics, the game lacks visual impact, and the mix of cel-shaded characters and painterly background doesn't work.The sound effects are terrible and make everything feel very weak. The characters constantly keep saying soulless quips and come off as obnoxious.Gameplay tries to be accessible but at the same time asks players to deal with overwhelming offense and messy neutral.The control scheme doesn't have an intuitive way to put specials on S1/S2. It's made worse by the amount of macros you need to use.Every time it did something, it doubled down with a retarded idea that made the initial thing worse.The most retarded part for me was installing the beta and hearing first hand that the game has a french dub. I don't understand at all why you would spend the extra cash on that shit.
>>751464825>>751464724>>751464896>>751465205All these points contrasted to the streamers trying to convince others that its good makes it even more hilarious and paints an even more desperate picture of how badly this game lacked any staying power.
>>75146468910 years that's really it, it ook 10 years to be made, once it finally started to roll out the market was full, SF6 is still the biggest name and no matter how much people are trying to claim otherwise tag games just aren't that popular, especially with a shit IP like league, the characters are genuinely terrible, all boring and uninteresting, but even aside from that 10 years of development means they wasted a lot of money, money they'd never recoup, Riot even admits they only released it because it was done enough that it might've had a chance but it didn't.The fact nonfgc people didn't give a shit? again tag games aren't that popular and the game frankly looks like shit, it had an adspot at TGA and people still forgot about it, I watched it with friends and they all went "what the fuck is this?" then the actual gameplay is boring as sin to watch, try and watch a tournament of 2xko, it's insanely dull, meanwhile Tokon while it has it's issues has actual energy in it's animation, soundtrack and characters and is more fun to watch, but 2xko, no that game kept just going overtime.It being f2p also meant that people tried and dropped it after one match, at least with paid games theres a sunk cost theretldr: the game took 10 years and what was delivered was so unremarkable no one paid attention to it.
Remember Tokon lol
>>751450806There's a lot I like about SF6 but my enjoyment started to dwindle once I got into Platinum and had to actually contend with Drive instead of pretending I was playing a different game.
>lose 30% of HP in first 10 seconds of match >immediately give upHow do I counter this
>>751465459mmm sort of
>>751465685Think of how many times you got the opponent to 10% HP and they turned the tables on you and won despite the health deficit.Do that to them instead.
>>751465685watch your replay back and see what got you in that scenario and then lab a way to beat it
>>751452362Mister Universal
>>7514646891. Stupid name that has nothing to do with league2. Stupid devs that picked said stupid name and actively didn't care about making something decent or good just cramming in some retarded shit3. Stupid devs that are also bbtag, dnf duel, guilty gear and general arcsys fans/players who should never ever be allowed to make games or be in charge of new projects.
Avatar's so fucking fun even when I'm losing to some bullshit.>>751465685Every health point above 1 is a resource you can spend.
>running into the most unpopular character in the game and you get knowledge checked because you never face that niggawhat do you do in this scenario?
>>751466298Save it so you don't forget the next time you run into one.
>>751463934it feels like forever and you are a shill defending a ruined genre

>>751463314stance slop, on plus giving, armored king hybrid, devil animal!
>>751450113I'm burnt out on SF6, Strive, and Tokon. I havent bought the new season of COTW yet. Not hopping back on Tekken until Yujiro is out. There's nothing to play.
>>751464689theres like 160 characters in league and while a bunch aren't really fighting game material, I could come up with like 2 dozen more fitting characters than what they picked, especially since for most of the picks they chose literally who'slike the fact that literal kung-fu man Lee got left behind for more fucking zoners (or characters that are meant to be zoners) is absurd.
Imagine Draven but with double the knife-throw-and-catch system Ryougi has and his moveset revolves are command rolls, dashes, and jumps.Because his Q catches refreshing W was the best part of his gameplay.
imagine how cancerous he would be in a 2d fighter
>>751471803just make his puppets stun him if they take too much damage
>>751471803>puppet character would be cancerousno, it cant be..............
>>751471803People played Blazblue didn't they?
>>751472070>>751472212he's not just a puppet character, he's also a poison character
how do i reliably do half circles
How would you realistically control 3 puppets at once?
>>751471803you have carl in blazblue ,
>>751473137Holding an attack button lets you move the corresponding puppet, releasing the button makes it attack a la Zato but one normal per puppet instead of one attack per button. 236A makes the first puppet do a special, 236B makes the second one etc. Some kind of ex move that teleports all the puppets to useful positions so you aren't just screwed if they get out of place.
>>751472748opposite direction into qc just drag your finger across the bottom from back to front
>>751472748do a full circle and press your button midway through
>>751464579I have a mentatility problem that's bigger than an execution one with Guile. The way I like to play is reactive and when I'm up against someone who is agressive and pushes forward, I have a lot of fun playing into that situation where I'm fishing for counters and opportunities to take turns away from them. Every few matches though, I'll come across players who recognize what I'm trying to do and then they just sit back and wait and want me to play the other role and then I just fall apart
im not trannyim not blacki was born after 1999sorry, i just... i wont

>>751479712I like Ingrid but I don't like her newest gameSorry
>>751479772which one? tekken 8 is aids thanks to the kangaroo
>>751481098Yeah, every time a new character comes out the game gets worse for a few days but I'm powering through it.
>>751480236I prefer to think of her as a lazerbeam character >>751480349Shame. CFAS release fucking when?
Miary Zo is lowkey top-10 girl in fighting games in terms of sex appeal.>>751463314I'm curious to see him in a game but then I remember that I can barely hold on to GoD4 rank and I don't want to lose it for the 5th time.
>>751450113No Yun-seong, no buy some.
>>751482884>lazerbeam character>firing mah laser>can't laser anymore>lose:(
>>751450113I recently played BBCPEX again after years, and holy shit, D-Pad was destroying my thumbs.
>>751484629Your OD laser doe?
>>751466730Robert build different
>>751450113i never stopped.
>>751486632real talk, stockless one is too stubby, so either people jump, or they just have a faster poke, and then her buttons are also kinda middlingI really do not understand what the vision for this character is because you're basically just doing shoto style zoning/anti-air, with worse everythingif you want fireballs+DP you pick a shoto, if you want good/multiple fireballs+fullscreen options you pick Dhalsimparry drive rush beam/teleport is a little funny
>>751461310>nowdoes he know?
>>751472269has poison ever done fucking anything in any fighting game
>>751464689they squandered every first mover advantage they had and ended up being the nth ez input tag fighter with rollback. the last ace in their pocket was being THE league fighter, which they did everything in their power to obfuscate with the title and no advertising outside of fgcshills. also league players didnt care and 2v2 was polarizing and didn't really have any drawthey should have made an exvs clone
>play modern day fighting games>the ones catering to troons and niggers
>>751487681As in having more than just damage over time effect? Because it's a very common thing.
>>751487681I think both Faust and Testament in +R get fucked up damage from it?Teemo in 2XKO would poison on mushrooms if he had the badge but I have no idea if it was optimal given they kept changing the game's combos.Aki in SF6 poisons on hit or with unblockable options, but it does little damage (I think at most, from staying in the SA2 poison pool, you would get less than 10%). She gets her best combos on poisoned opponents because it makes the poison explode and launches.
>>751488219>>751487681FANG in SFV is kind of cool and probably the only well made poison character ever; too bad he's in SFV.It's kiiiiind of okay on Bang in Blazblue because he needs the damage badly.But I'm all for getting rid of both if we're also getting rid of +R Testament. Their sacrifice would be remembered.
>>751450113Only if I can play DoA
>>751450113It's a pretty outdated genre and the new fighting games are fucking dogshit.Back in the days of SNES Street Fighter 2: Turbo it was simple and pure.
>>751489116I like the idea of using Aki's SA2 as a combo ender in the corner to keep dealing damage while boxing your opponent in the corner. But it's not really character-defining.It feels like they're testing the waters by leaning a little more into it with the last patch, but it's never really enough imo.She will poison on a punish counter sweep, but for whiff punishes in neutral you can just use better buttons and get a combo into poison. Her OD Fireball followup also now poisons on block, but it's punishable on block. Unless you do it at a spacing where they can react and parry. And you're better off just using the fireball for plus frames and to get in.I feel like it's just a hard mechanic to get right.
>>751450113I have shit reflexes, have terrible execution, and im prone to tilting under pressure. I wish i could gitgud at them but i dont have what it takes.Plus now i'm 35 so only a few years before they become litterally unplayable.
>>751464689>remove motion inputs>but make it tag kusogeNobody knows what was going through their minds.
>>751464386Join an active club if you're white.
>>751490083Fuck I'm 35 too but am feeling the urge to start...
I'm having trouble finding out when exactly is my turn, like I try to hit a button during the opponent's pressure and get hit, then I go to training mode to lab the setup and turns out that if I MASHED jab instead of pressing it then it would win 100% of the time, but I can't ever find the actual timing without mashing.
>>751464689Was never going to play a Riot game anyway but to this day I don't even really know what the game was supposed to be. I kept reading it was supposed to have simplified controls and be newbie-friendly, but then it was also a tag fighter for some reason? Not sure why developers seem to have this mind virus that a tag fighter where you can just do absurd shit on low execution is where it's really at, and not just profoundly cancerous to play.Then the name kind of stinks, then noone seemed to have anything especially good to say about any character in particular. Characters also just looked kinda samey from what I saw, you'd really think a dev notorious for their world-famous MOBA would know better and actually let you play some absolute freaks.
>>751490275Feels like we're simply way too o'd for anything competitive huh.
>>751487492She's good long range + up close even with stockless od beam. It goes further than most character's jumpin range and it can frametrap. Foosies is pretty hard but you do get great reward if you can bait something out, which is hardly an option for sim.
>>751450113I play them, but I don't really like a lot of modern offerings. Granblue is the only one I really ended up sticking to and I'm pretty sure Id is the last piece of content it's getting.
>>751490385>don't even really know what the game was supposed to beA piece of shit that only the clique of idiots that made the game would want to play(a lot of them still don't pay it lol). Hopefully people take this as a warning to NOT HIRE FANS/COMPETITIVE PLAYERS OF ARCSYS GAMES.
>>751490396her buttons for close range are really not any good and OD Beam frametrapping as a cancel or being plus outside throw range is kinda irrelevant imo>Foosies is pretty hard but you do get great reward if you can bait something outi don't see how that's different from most of the castthe only exception being if you miraculously can get 4 stocks, where you'll dish out 4k meterless, but that introduces the problem of managing stocks in the first place, you have to give up damage/oki, or expose yourself in neutral. >which is hardly an option for sim.that's tangential to my point, sim fully trades having close range and easy punishes for better zoning and unusual movement optionsso even if he suffers from having mediocre options in the close range, it doesn't matter because he's not meant to play there
>>751464689Badly advertised degenerate tag shit (nobody wants this)
>>751450113>Hey does anyone want to play [FIGHTING GAME] with me?>zero responses >thread diesI just saved myself 30 minutes.
>>751458867SNK's account manager needs to get his shit together. I guess it doesn't apply when it's linked from a 3rd party site, but on yt itself the dumbfuck has it tagged french again.On the upside though, Laocorn's auto-dub is absolutely fucking hilarious.
>>751492936good riddancefuck playing fightans with YOU especially
>>751491826Ingrid can play long range like sim while also having a way easier time trying to shimmy and whiff punish stuff. That's what I think the vision was anyways, not trying to say she's competitive as ryu or even sim but I don't think she's necessarily outclassed by them either. Also the strength of special cancel beam is that you can loop it which is very good in a game with burnout. I wouldn't sleep on it.
>>751450113never stopped, just took breaks.
Hop in the Soulcalibur 2 Arkadyzja lobby.
All the Nike shit they added to Tekken 8 looks fucking HORRIBLEWhat were they THINKING?

>>751494845>starts toThey've been doing that for ages. Just look at third strike with the shitty rap music.
I got into them with Strive because of Bridget. I've since gone to 4 locals, and won 2 of em :3For context, when I picked up Strive, I knew how to do a shoryuken and hadouken in street fighter, and that's it.
>>751494845With the whole "Kazuya collects sneakers" meme I hoped they could at least put something moderately cool in.
>>751494946I know the motions and can pull them off cleanly in a vacuum, but fumble like no tomorrow in real games...
Reminder that i'm literally Jin Kisaragi.Literally. Even now.i'm probably why the blazblue sequel hasn't been announced yet

>Guilty Gear wants to promote aggressive gameplay>meter gain lockout for several seconds when using meter, game will make you gain less meter if you don't engage>SF6 wants to promote aggressive gameplay>barely any penalty for spending, still regenerate meter fine when up backingthis doesn't seem right
>games are just reaction time test + playing guitar hero with your controllerNah i'm good
>>751495857do you believe in gangstalking? if your answer is "no", then you won't believe anything i have to tell you.if your answer is "yes", then understand that BlazBlue gave me a weapon to fight the stalkers back with. That weapon is an entire half of the game hidden away for a fox like myself or you even perhaps (please let it happen).That trigger, if your curious, was this line from Calamity Trigger>Noel goes "It's you. You're Ragna the Bloodedge!".That's when i realized my gangstalkers are LITERALLY Ragna the Bloodedge, and we're supposed to do "Cain and Abel" shit together according to Mori's BBCS logic. But I don't play that way. I'm not Christian and I don't become Christian.I don't believe in BBCF's ending with all the female characters becoming nuns, and because I stunned Japan with my LAWSUIT AGAINST FROM SOFTWARE, Arc System Works was made aware of my existence. I just had to prove it first, like you can yourself.If you want to take me down, you're going to have to get further than I have, which at this point, is to do what everyone's hoping will happen, by finding that hidden game.You can do it. We all can. We're just hesitant about it.

>>751499658yeah you're melting down
>>751499779This one I do agree with as the tranny lmaoThat guy is malding.
>>751498132Kinda, she technically started out as a character in a 3d fighter made by ex-snk devs poached by capcom after snk's first bankruptcy. The game was cancelled despite getting to the arcade playtest stage and it's devs fired or relocated soon after. Ingrid somehow stuck around until today where she's in SF6, which really puts her crest design with references to isis everywhere (add also a few illuminati ones oddly enough).She's not a fan of psycho power, but it seems like it's more of a personal thing against bison since she seems more or less neutral to ed, one of the other psychopower users so you maybe have a chance with her.
>>751499149>>751499891What fightin games do you like? Do you want a blowjob?

>>751450113no. esports ruined them and there was always too many black people that played them anyway. fighting games are hereby dead and gay until 2039 when another big revival push comes, like sf4 did in 2009.
Hey youYes, youPlay GrubKUHUHU
>>751500293Be my girlfriend?
>>751500352I have a bf already. Sorry anon.
>>751450113None of the new ones are goods, and im not trying to play the same old games again. And I really dislike how japanese games removed in game voice chat.Not on console anymore and im not joining some faggot ass discord to talk to losersThe new VF looks good enough to try out tho. Will buy Soul Calibur 7 if it comes out.
>>751464689Bro Riot is a company that works because they make easier version of other games, League of Legends is popular because the average person doesn't want to learn Dota, it was a stupid idea to make this a tag fighter it should've been a simple 1v1 fighting game
>>751450113I would, but I'm pretty busy all the way through to December at the least, potentially until January next year, so all I really play is one that I can easily hop on and queue for matches, no discord pingings or lobbies or whatever.For me, the only game that's good for that right now is Rivals 2, but it ends up just being queueing for 2-3 minutes just to fight a guy that's several ranks above me, and while I can stand that, what I don't stand is that they always end up being rude and t-bagging. I don't know what it is with platform fighters, but they always seem to get people to be rude when I just wanna play the game.
>>751500334I did. Try and try as I might, I just didn't have fun with it and disliked a lot about it.
How is Roger? i can't find an answer because the inmates run the asylum at /tekgen/
>>751500796Fair enough, it does have its share of problems.
>>751500334>about to say "sure, why not, meet me in the corner of US-E Lobby 1">go to boot the game up first>[Uninstall] button instead>huh>look it up, they removed the free version a week or so ago>they want me to pay $25 for itSorry anon. Shan't.
>>751501091Oh yeah, I saw that on Twitter.They made the whole cast free for a week before shutting it down.
>>751501065What problems do YOU have with the game?>>751501091Such a weird decision. Even Dead or Alive 5 on PC is still free over 10 years after its release. Same thing for DOA6.
>>751501091Give it like two weeks. The game will go on sale for at least 60% off
>>751501331>What problems do YOU have with the game?Way too many plus frames everywhere.I don't hate BC as much as other people do but it IS pretty gay.Sandalphon is cool but I wish his different elements actually made a bigger difference.They never added Raziel
>>751450806I quit SF6 before the Daigo match but it was the reason I cannot come back to it. It was the perfect display of the problem the game has. Sure, your fundamentals might be better than theirs by a significant margin, but unfortunately sweetie, they popped their lvl2 and also green slimed ya a couple times gg no re. Completely exposed the game.
>>751450113Being back Soulcalibur and I will, everything else is shit.
>>751499779>you're melting downI mean, I do like Melty.
Did you buy her classic costume in CotW?...did you even buy CotW?
>>751505068I bought it at about $25 and still regret it.
>>751505307Why do you dislike it?
>>751450113that game sucks though, cant member uuuh the potemkin game sucks ...yeah
>>751505694But OP's pic looks like it's from Xrd, not Strive. The shading is different.
>>751450113Make a Street Fighter game that I actually want to play then nigga.
>>751450113Anytime i play a fighting game i can always tell the one with more experience actually unironically hate it when someone with less experience play the game especially when im sincerly trying to learn or just have fun. You guys deny it but hate people joining fighting games
>>751450113Naw, they're hard and I'm a failed person with no motivation to improve myself.
How do you guys balance fighting games with other games? Feel like the first few years I played fighting games I played practically only fighting games and only more recently have I started to focus on single player games. Right now I find myself mostly playing old arcade games or 8/16-bit games because they're all like an hour long and replayable. The idea of playing anything that's 10+ hours just feels impossible to me. I still love fighting games snd have been playing my main game for over ten years now but damn it just feels impossible to play other genres when you actually want to get good at even just one of these games.
>>751506321You can't, you either play fighting games only or don't at all.
>>751505748You thinking strive is the only bad GG is very funny.
I've just finished watching the Street Fighter and I don't know how people here can champion this movie. It was too funny I didn't like the tone of it. The only good parts were the animated scenes and they should've just focused on that.
3S/KOFXV/COTW anyone>>751506321I dont
>>751510675Man if I didn't have to be up early in the morning I'd love to play KOFXV right now.
>>751510675gimme like 30 mins and ill play kof or cotw, but i'm still learning them
SC/SC2 anyone
>Can't get above 500 players again after it's big patchAt least you guys owned those new players who are not familiar with fighting games
>>751510675>COTWI really want to learn how to play this game but I just don't have the time.>>751511215>SC/SC2I don't think starcraft is a fighting game
>>751510905i'm ready now if you're down, i'm NA east if that matters
>>751512152>I really want to learn how to play this game but I just don't have the time.its not hard, every character has a similar gameplay of ex into ex
>>751512171sounds good, lemme know which you wanna play
>>751512434either is fine, i like both games. i like kof more tho
>>751512479kof it is292379
>>751512083What was the patch about?
>>751512083Avatar is proof that the "fgc" is full of shit. It's easily the most fun fighter of the decade and that was when it was half finished
>>751512635alright be there in a sec just realized i uninstalled it. be like 5 mins lol
>>751512751I think KOFXV has it beat but it's definitely the most fun game to come out since thenI eased off on practicing it since I only entered KOF and 3S at Frosty, but it's definitely still very fun. Played some at locals today.
>>751512152You'd waste everyone's time by playing it anyway.
>>751512924Fuck off
i think i have brain worms because i've never played a fighting game i've disliked playing other people in. the closest i've come to genuine frustration was BBCF solely because of how knowledge checky it is
>>751508218NTA, but while there are other games Pot is a war criminal in, Xrd is not one of them. No, anon, 6K trishula loops were not enough to keep him out of bottom tier. We both know you haven't touched #Reload or Accent Core in more than a decade and a half, so how about you just come clean and admit you were referring to Strive by bringing up Pot.
i forget but how do you recover tech in kof15
>>751513887both lights, like roll
andross 11 is a menace
Shit, I'd be down to play something, but I'm so rusty and there's too many options. I could probably do either>GGACR>GGST>DBFZ>TFH>AH3LXSSX>Skullgirls>Ultimate Sonic Smackdown>Smash Remix + EXTRA (real casual, with Auto Z-Cancel)(You) me within the next 20 mins if you wanna play something
>>751512152>hurr durr star craft i'm so funny xdFuck off.
ggs anonty for the gamesclark is indeed an evil evil character
>>751514905ggs, you're really good. i need to practice some more. i'm only really comfortable on b jenet. i forgot all my sylvie stuff lol
>>751514949practice makes perfectcheck out dreamcancel if you need sylvie stuff, her page is pretty good
>>751515081yeah i had some bnbs down when i played last but i just completely blanked this time, i'll just need to brush up a lot lol. b jenet i also play in cotw so it wasn't too bad. i kept forgetting that two lights isn't throw in this game too. kof15 is so fun...
>>751514904what else could SC/SC2 be referring to? There's no relevant fighting game with that acronym
>>751515136Soul Caliburit just got a rollback patch thingy>relevantmost relevant fighting games kinda suck ass
sc is the most alien fg franchise to me, i played it as a kid a lot but i just can't wrap my head around its systems in any sort of sense. i might just be low iq i'm starting to realize here
>>751515187literally no one calls soul cal 1 "SC"
>>751487681Testament fucking melts everyone with poison
>>751487681Do Rachel's bats count
cotw might be the most 2 touch game on the market rn lol
I know it's lame to care about battle pass FOMO shit but holy fuck, the current Tekken 8 Fight Pass is dogshit.I guess Asuka's tits look nice in the fluffy wolf bikini top or whatever, but almost everything else is fucking trash.
>>751458125Whats up with Hues and blazblue.Besides game being cheap asf.
>>751450113I am not black enough for fighting slop
>>751450113playing fighting games alone online is probably one of the worst video game experiences of my lifeprobably why they die so fast they suck ass without friends/ involvement in a community
>>751450113I'm not good at them
>only actual good season pass in modern fighting games
>>751464689I remember downloading and then canceling it. I do that with anything free like demos n' shit just to add it to my library, cause I'm fucking gay like that.Couldn't tell you anything about it.
>>751520737Cool portraits they should try actually adding one of them to the videogame we're waiting
I absolutely fucking seethe when I fight my friend in CF, he plays Hazama and BangAgainst his Hazama I can't do shit because he can just chain out, he always has an answer, I just hate playing it
>hop on +R>everyone switches to HOS/Sol after a loss or twowhat causes this?
>>751523001seems based fighting sols is more fun then some bum oki dispensers putting semen on screen characters that are 3/4 of arcsys game rosters
>>751523001Never stay for rematches.
>>751523029I mean yeah, I play slayer myself so I'd prefer an honest bout to fighting fucking justice, testament or some other flavour of gimmicky cheesy zonerslop but sill
>>751523001i got same shit in third strike when niggas run to ken when losing
>>751523393it's a display of weakness. When a player doesn't have confidence in his own ability to beat his opponent he puts his eggs in the "does he have what it takes to deal with me flailing like a retard with VV, GV and general sol cheesiness"
I don't have enough time or attention span to practice in any meaningful capacity and i don't want to play many of the games people are actually playing
>>751523001Okay, and? It's not like they're tier whoring
>>751520737>le different flavour of chineese kung fu uncsnahbumi is OD doe
>>751524362that bit is true, I'm an Xrd player too and people play boring top tiers like ky and johnny in the most boring ways possible so I guess that's that
>there are more people playing cotw than tokon and avatar combined
>>751524960vtubers gave snk superpowers
>>751524960Wait for the sale to end
i play strive and deadlocki main millia and mina HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>751506321desu it depends if you're learning a game or not. it's easy enough for me to jump into a game i know play a couple sets and then move on but if you're still actively grinding then yeah they're time vampires
I like learning combos but I can't learn matchups, techniques or anything else
>>751526719combos are the most useless thing if you don't play tagslop
I can't wait for bbcf's crossplay update, I'm tired of having to ping the entire world on some discord just to play some matches
>>751523592>"does he have what it takes to deal with me flailing like a retard with VV, GV and general sol cheesiness"this is why I don't even wanna bother playing against Sol, eating a full combo because he mashed GV in blockstun and you forgot to use the right normal is some of the most retarded scrubby shit ever
ayo my kof15/3s sets?
>havent seriously played BBCF in monthsI've forgotten everything.
>>751450428spare me....
I pre-ordered the GGXX soundtrack vinyls. AMA.
>>751528869Legit haven't heard this. Since when? Can we still pre order?
>study replays>lab my outs>learn multiple bnbs>still stuck in platinum in sfi think i might just not have the gene, i can execute all my stuff but i'm so bad at implementing any of it under pressure
Okay, first of all, 2XKO is still a great game. Genuinely one of the best fighting games I've played. The tag mechanics are incredible, the gameplay is deep, and Riot had something really special here. Sure, they've released the final patch, development is over, and they're no longer supporting the game or its tournaments, but that doesn't mean the game is dead! People can still play it!And honestly, EVO not announcing it for the next events isn't necessarily a bad sign. Maybe they just need time to reconsider. Although, if Riot isn't supporting tournaments anymore, and EVO isn't picking it up, and there's no more content coming... well, that's a bit unfortunate.But that's fine! Because Deadlock is doing great. Really great. It's a different audience, and I'm still figuring things out, but you have to diversify.Especially now that the Saudis are buying up every major fighting game tournament. Which is good! More money for the scene! Although, I guess if they control the biggest events, and the games I play aren't getting support, then that's a little concerning.But I have options! Street Fighter is always there. Deadlock is still there. I can make general FGC content. There's always something to do.I just thought 2XKO was going to be the one, you know? I really believed in that game. I thought we'd have years of tournaments, new characters, new patches. I thought I'd finally found my next big thing.Anyway, it's fine. I'm adaptable. That's what content creators do. We adapt.And remember, guys, even if your game gets abandoned, your tournaments disappear, and your next career move doesn't work out, there's always tomorrow.Unless tomorrow's patch notes are the final ones too.
>>751529571at some point you just need to play more and spend more time in the pressure cooker.desu i think kof & cvs2 are where i learned to manage my nerves. you get way more rounds to adjust but you also end up trying to force comebacks with your anchor
>>751529571>platinumanti-air, meaty and counter DI covers 90% of what people will do and can just carry you to diamondif you want one more trick up your sleeve learn how your character can do Button > DRC > Button > Link on hit or Strike/Throw on block
>>751529990yeah i definitely don't anti air enough, i can never get my timings down. i have a couple drc combos as well its mostly that i freeze when i actually get a hit in and flub all the shit i was labbing lol. i'm sure the more i play actual matches the more it will come easier. i'm already playing way better than i was even a few months ago when i was stuck in silver so. everyone always talks about modern fighting games and how its so easy to climb ranks in them and i've never had an easy time learning any of the ones i've played lol so it can be a bit discouraging sometimes
>>751530445>i can never get my timings downmost anti-air specials are air invuln from frame 1, so you can let that shit rip way later than you think (more so if you do them crouching with the 323 shortcut)the only counterplay is a really well spaced empty jump, or air moves that will adjust the character's trajectory, but you're still better off always ripping it because players at that rank don't really know how to do that wellif it's a button or a special that isn't air invuln immediately, it takes a bit more of awareness to do
>>751530930i play blanka so i have a lot of different anti air options between upball, back MK and HK. I usually find landing the back MK the easiest to time
>>751531006yeah Blanka is a little less intuitive to anti-air with, but his AAs are solid once you get them down, 5HK can be one of the most punishing anti-airs in the game
>>751526816Sunce when was BB, UNI, or SF6 a tag game
>>751531478>bb has a tag game>uniis in the said bb tag game>sf6in world tour you got assists
>>751532084Checks out
>>751450113I play casually every few weeks or so. I've been having an itch to play Darkstalkers or Battle for the Grid again, might do those.Then again, I never tried Melty Blood yet and I got that downloaded...
>>751452169Strive is the only one I can enjoy. +R is just spastic bullshit and Xrd looks great but it's impossible to find players. Rooms are up but they're always veterans who will rape you and then refuse to play. Strive is fun and very pretty, it's just a shame about the kits being less interesting. I'm also a Street Fighter player, so the grounded combat feels more natural to me. Reminds me a bit of Skullgirls too, which I used to play a lot.>>751457713Be like me and play 3rd Strike. The new Polarity mod for SFV is super active too, I've been having a lot of fun with that.
>>751529740go to deadlock and stay there
>>751533375if you like vsav i can see you liking melty quite a bit
I want to play cotw but the artstyle looks disgusting and require alot of combojuggling
>>751526816yeah I didn't say I'm good.
>>751450113No. The fgc is shittier than ever and new games have pandered to said shitty community
anyone up for something
There aren't any characters in even mid popular games I can larp as anymore, I've fallen too far. Nobody plays Power Stone.
>>751535670soku?
I joined some friends steam family and they have street fighter 4 Should I give it a try?
i've masturbated so much my middle finger on my right hand hurts and i cant play
>>751536813to those streetfighter images i bet
>>751450113I will now that the decomps and rollback shit is coming out for all my favorite games.God bless AI sloppers.
>>751536474yes, hop into a beginner lobby
>>751535670Ask me in 3 hours
>>751534029>>Strive is the only one I can enjoy. +R is just spastic bullshit and Xrd looks great but it's impossible to find players.Xrd is pretty much diet +R, with easier execution but retaining some of the bullshit or replacing it with other stuff (eg. Projectile YRC instead of Gunflame FRC).>Rooms are up but they're always veterans who will rape you and then refuse to play.Yeah the community for Xrd is weird, and the lobby system is ass which doesn't help>Strive is fun and very pretty, it's just a shame about the kits being less interesting. I think this really depends on the character, some are definitely too boring. Like Sol getting Sidewinder that's just a combo ender (except for one combo where you can pick up) was hella lame. Ram's rework from Xrd is the world's most disappointing shit.But, I like that in general there's rarely stuff that's completely useless compared to previous games where certain moves can end up having niche uses.
>>751535670I will try to host Battle Tycoon - Flash Hiders SFX on fightcade in 6 hours.
>>751535917i havent played it in years from where do i get it now
>>751450113okay
>>751538606https://github.com/0Miles/soku-launcherthey made it so port forwarding isn't required via giuroll.

tfw remake never
COTW won.
>>751539868You're supposed to let the weak ones win so they don't quit.
>>751538536> I like that in general there's rarely stuff that's completely useless compared to previous games where certain moves can end up having niche usesThis is how I feel about Strive. It's just a tighter experience. Playing previous games feels like quantity over quality sometimes. Strive would benefit from just a small bit of expansion on some moves. I play Baiken and Azami is an amazing move in Xrd. Her parry in Strive is satisfying but basically has no conversions. If they added a few options after it, I think she'd be a perfect character. ABA is a character I think really benefitted from cutting moves, because +R ABA just has so much useless shit. I never played her that much, though, so maybe I'm just unaware of her versatility
>>751539868At least you have friends who want to play fighting games. I only have a fake fg fan.
>>751539868yeah because fighting games on paper are bland and boring as fuckits just 2 guys slapping and kicking eachother and maybe shooting a firballmeanwhile in the finals and deadlock you have much more shit going onno normal person gonna look at dustloop characters page and gonna go "oh this is interesting"
>>751541037Normal people are dumb
>>751540338I AM THE WEAK ONE>Main Dizzy, sub Potemkin>"Man, getting command grabbed is bullshit / YOU KEEP FREEZING ME WTF">Clearly, they have a problem blocking and not jumping.>"Fine, I'll play someone I can't use at all">Literally never touched Venom and all I do is shoot pool balls and win>They jump but now I just play projectile cancer since I don't LIKE Venom but it's the handicap.It wasn't stomps either, they took rounds but not games. If I kept on Dizzy they'd have quit way sooner!>>751540751Doesnt last long. I bet they'll drop in for a Killer Instinct night and Dan Gargos will come out of retirement and scare everybody back into not playing it again lmao
>>751540538>I play Baiken and Azami is an amazing move in Xrd. Her parry in Strive is satisfying but basically has no conversions. If they added a few options after it, I think she'd be a perfect character.She's in a weird state because the catch parry is really mediocre right now, but Guard Cancel parry is amazing and she gets mix or tether from your blockstrings, making it the best defensive move in the game. eg. if you play Bridget, Baiken can just GCP the second hit of 2S, and the counterplay for Bridget is doing some extremely risky shit after the first hit like Rolling movement, or yoyo toss.So in theory she forces you to re-think your blockstrings apart from "can they DP here", but it's locked behind the execution/awareness check I think with the removal of H Kabari HKD, she definitely feels a bit lacking tho.Maybe giving her a dash cancel out of H Kabari's first part could be neat.One thing I really liked with 2.0 is how they changed certain moves to add a bit more utility. Stuff like Bedman's error delay now upgrading, his beyblade being cancellable early so you can time an error to be plus, or Elphelt's charged fireball.These changes don't really make the kit more bloated and add a bunch of things you can do. I wish it was applied to more characters.
>>751540120slut
>>751538536Nobody wanted to play Xrd Ram man, shw ceased to exist after getting nerfed from top 1
Fucked up the only fighting games with any long term mainstream appeal are made by companies that barely want to make them instead of more DBZ shit and funneling all dev resources into the boss' son's obsession with fantasy light wildlife simulation nobody gives a fuck about.
>>751541789She's a mess but at least she's an interesting looking mess with tons of unusual stuffStrive Ram is beyond boring, she's like if you had to design a top tier and the only restriction was "her reversal has to be metered". And they reworked her into still being the same braindead top tier btw.
god damn kof15 is so fun, the movement is so snappy compared to cotw. sylvie is a weird little freak and i love her
>>751484047>I don't want to lose it for the 5th time.why? why lie to yourself?
>>751542180>funneling all dev resources into the boss' son's obsession with fantasy light wildlife simulation nobody gives a fuck aboutfinna crash out if i hear another "let people have fun" when talking about this gamefighting game related i remember after the first tokon beta there were people saying the same thing too and had to be told that devs can't fix apparent issues if nobody is allowed to talk about the issues just so they can have a moral high ground or whatever
>>751541789that was a kneejerk overreaction from extremely carried players that never learned how to actually interact with their opponent and just gave up instead of playing neutral, she's still pretty comfortably mid tier at worst and the only thing preventing her from being high is feeding a lot of Burst. Her conversions and setplay are still so good that if you get hit and don't have Burst you might as well put down the controller and wait until you do, because she has reliable fullscreen corner carry into the second or third best looping mixups in the game.There's a few top level Ram players these days, Solstice won FF, Combo Breaker, CEO and Evo this year.
I hate fgcThey are worst than gachafag
>>751543780Then what games do you play that are so fucking amazing that it made you come to this thread and post this
There hasnt been a good fighting game since xrd /bbcf / sf4 and grinding the same games for a decade gets boring.
>>751524859It doesn't help that the last GG patches were really bad. Characters like bedman, answer and kum got dumpstered for no good reason while the top tiers survived pretty unscathed so the final game version has reduced char variety compared to it's peak.
nitroplus blasterz just got rollback mod
>>751544639Answer got buffed in 2.1they removed the 5H IAD loops he could only use in a few matchups anyway and in exchange he got better scroll combos which are (mostly) universal, he's definitely better off on average afterwardshe could still use a couple small tweaks like making air hit 6K>scroll conversions on lightweights work right and maybe improving his dog ass supers a bit but even on release he was mostly just really unexplored, not bad. Bedman and Kum were always unpopular anyway and honestly I think there's more of them and less of the top tiers these days. You definitely see way less Johnny these days than omitowinslol even if he got a couple completely unnecessary(but small) buffs in 2.1, and even Elphelt and Faust and Venom etc are less common.
lei fei confirmo
>>751545453No one on Earth is hype for this shit. No one is hype for Tekken or Street Fighter or ANYTHING.Fighting games fucking suck ass.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KQcf_bL8qF4
>>751450113I really want to. The ones I have on my Steam account are Guilty Gear Strive and Guilty Gear XX Accent Core Plus R. Which one do you think I should play?
>>751506321I try to branch out before the year ends, cleaning up Steam library so to speak. Actually irl locals help me a bit because usually I don't want to touch fighting games for a week or two after each one. But yeah it's tough, I want to get into shmups but they don't excite me nearly as much as fighting games, there's no other genre with competition this exciting and presentation as appealing.>>751518408>the current Tekken 8 Fight Pass is dogshitThat's what happens when you expect these companies to care about a 3 year old game. They just pump out random ass characters that they can work the least at and add one cool guy to make sure you buy the whole season. They won't even add a stage for Tifa, and that Yujiro stage is also pretty meh.>>751520737>TagahOh no, he's hot.>>751523001I'm surprised I'm nearly only one playing Baiken. I thought she's top-tier and popular...
>>751549525+r is way better but Strive is way easier if you're bad
>>751549827I don't know if I'm bad because I've never actually sunk time into a fighting game before, I'm probably bad tho. I'll try out +R first, thanks anon.
>>751549525+R has a ton of execution requirement and knowledge checksStrive is designed with beginner onboarding in mind
remedial genre for rogs
>>751549774>That's what happens when you expect these companies to care about a 3 year old game.Grim, but you're not wrong.The last pass was great at least, it added a leotard/competition swimsuit which is something that every single female character in fighting games should be wearing.
>>751552651I think Tekken's shop is pretty good. They give 100 free coins with every new character and they also Harada gave us 500 for Genmaji stage controversy. You can buy Premium pass with that and get lots of coins for just playing without paying a cent. And costumes are nice and horny.
They need to add true single player to fighting games.
>>751553237bro, your poly fighter?
>>751553237What do you mean?
>>751553168Yeah, as far as battle pass shit goes, a pass that is completely refunded if you complete it is pretty alright, and several passes have had horny pieces of clothing so I can't complain about those, I just think the current one with the Nike shit is lame.
https://github.com/Confetti3/SFV-Emberhas anyone tried? how is the online?
>>751553538wait i thought it already had rollback
>>751553593I think they added some dogshit quality rollback because someone modded it in and they couldn’t just remove it and not replace it with something.

>>751450113I just started learning HnK, I really want to be a Shin player but I just can't get the hang of it. dribble combos are so fucking hard I don't even mind everyone having them. I do support a Raoh ban because he's fucking boring to watch.

Ok I'll play Avatar then.

>>751559281no but i might
>>751559294simply play a character that doesn't need combos
>>751559294Combos are the easy part of most games and basically all modern ones
>>751559559Doesnt exist>>751559673Yeah i tried playing sf6 but i read that the autocombo mode does 20% less damage, refunded the game straight after.
>>751559294>can't aim>basically can't play the gamewooooooooow
>>751560218Yeah i cant aim for shit, so i dont play fps either.
>>751559294
>>751560431except basketball is way simpler than fighting games
>>751560431I tried practicing combos but they just dont happen.
>>751560820I don't know man. Basketball is more physical. I don't see anyone here arranging meetups for an irl fight.
>>751560820it's really not. It's staggering how uncoordinated the average, non-athlete is. Just watch them try to dribble or shoot

>>751464689>tag
>>751570602Being young is better, yes.Living your entire life post 2000 is pretty dogshit though, video games have been getting progressively worse and worse after 2010 or so, and education (if you got/are getting one) is ESPECIALLY dogshit these days, not to mention the job market. Completely missed out on the comfiness and optimism about the future present in the 90s/early 2000s
>>751520737It's a "good" pass because the roster is so dogshit small and should've had them to begin with
>>751534029Honestly strive is a lot more random dogshit than plus r. I get strive is supposed to be flashy and inclusive rather than balanced but that doesn’t work for me.
>>751538536>But, I like that in general there's rarely stuff that's completely useless compared to previous games where certain moves can end up having niche uses.Cut to Laust, sitting in the corner with a bunch of "useless outside of CH Combos or specific item setup" moves
>>751464689instead of making lazy strides by being an early adopter of rollback in a world of delay based netcode over top of a simple low-ambition game, they decided to destroy all the work they did in the first 5 years (coincidentally when seth killian left) so they could spend 5 more years so they could make an "interesting failure" that does nothing interesting, nothing innovative, and ultimately released so late it lost every single potential advantage it had, on top of the stupid bullshit everyone else has mentioned
>>751464689>negative sex appeal>negative cool factor>named 2xkoit takes seconds before the average person would get bored, turn off the screen, and forget that it exists
>>751553538Whats up with nips and shit rollback?
>>7514646891) Make a game with simplified inputs to appeal to casuals, add in 50 hour Marvel 3 combos but with none of the sauce and the larger roster/team size that made Marvel 3 so interesting to play2) F2P fighting games mainly apply to paranoid freefags, and the FGC is already full of people that prefer to play small games on rollback casters. Having to install draconian anti-cheat scared a ton away3) Honestly a pretty lame roster. The biggest mistake they had was trying to appeal to more recent League fans. Those niggas aren't going to spend endless hours learning a new game outside of their genre. They're gonna keep playing League.What they needed was to appeal to the oldheads that hadn't been playing League in over a decade due to grievances with the game but still held onto their nostalgia and love for the characters. Less Sett, Samira, Senna, Illaoi, and honestly even Ekko and Yasuo. Give more Twisted Fate, Shako, Gangplank, Jax, Master Yi, Ryze, Ezreal, Fiddlesticks, Twitch, Skarner, or Veigar.Hell, the fact that Darius and Garen weren't this game's Ken and Ryu is the absolute mother of all missed opportunities
>>751572872They don't need to worry about netcode on their tiny island wired with fiber even in the sticks.

>>751458125based hueGODS for exposing the ugliness of this game
>>751464969A majority of the people who play fighting games are employed adults, it's the reason why player counts always spike during weekends.
>>751487278What do you have against guilty gear?
>>751450113Theres something about Strife that I cant describe but everytime I try to get into it again I get this weird second-hand embarassement. Everythings just so jolly happy in a cringy way. I miss the old GG style.I also recently bought SF6 off a sale until I realized I cant pirate the DLCs and holy fuck are the DLCs retarded expensive. Is it even worth getting into it?Also got made to buy uni by some friends. From the 3 I like that one the most but there seems to be some bullshit stuff to do. The tutorials been tough but solveable
>>751450479contrary for me. idk why but i cant play fighting games with some people with a few exceptions. it brings the worst out of people and my autistic ass gets bothered when they point out noob stuff I do
>>751496123You forgot to add the chess/math and gambling aspect of it too. Fighting games are like literally playing a PVP version of chess, guitar hero and the human benchmark test at the same time with your break being the chance to put it all on black.
>>751559507i'll play it with you if you're still alive
>>751563969I played that game before it was fucking trash and not in a fun way.
>>751574918They really should've kept Overtures aesthetic for the 3D games. Xrd's style permanently fucked the series.
Was I really that out of the loop that I had to find out SFV is off the steam market through a Brian F thumbnail?
>Try learn some fancy combo>waste like whole hour on practice>try land the damn thing on arcade mode>Button mash after confirmFUCK.
>>751576057that's nuts
>>751549774The issue with +R Baiken is that she's an extremely unorthodox character, not only does she not exist in any other fighting game series she doesn't even exist outside of this specific entry of Guilty Gear, people prefer to stick to what's familiar to them so obviously the shoto guy will be the first choice.However my own personal problem with +R Baiken is that her having top tier strength coupled with all those unique gimmicks make me feel like she's a horrible teacher, I don't think there's any skill you can carry from maining her to other games, sure she's a defensive character I guess but I can't make my opponent become unable to use a reversal after sealing one of his buttons as Guile, I can't open up Melty current code and ignore one of the literal pillars of the fundamental game there, being the pressure/blockstring stuff. Her gimmick is sick and it may create a completely new experience in the genre for both players but as a beginner, I'm staying far away from that.
>>751576057You're not supposed to learn things instantly, you silly BILLY, take a rest after labbing a bunch to let the muscle memory kick in.
>>751559294Nigga your Samurai Shodown, Street Fighter 2 and literally every single fighting game with autocombos ever?

Deserved too for playing those characters you fucking faggot.
>>751576781Bro just play vsav, everyone but the mummy literally has meterless guard cancels.
>>751549987>>751549525Play Strive retard, +R is a god forsaken game with no players that also demands you devote your life to it just to play the game "correctly". There are some good points about +R such as the increased speed and frantic pace of it, but in return you have complete dogshit you won't even understand until you already wasted 100 hours, stuff like different wake up timings for each character, different weights for combos with each character, FRC being a literal like 3 frame execution check just to play the game properly and you have to learn it with different timings for each move you want to use it for. Honestly the game sucks unless you are going all-in for the next decade playing it, and there aren't even enough people online to justify doing so as it is, nevermind in 5 years after you finally got FRCs down.
>>751450113I'm too lazy to learn to get good, and most fighting games are 90% online.
The worst thing is being a regular human being and getting matched with some flowcharting bot who barfs out the same exact match sequence every game.Why play with no joy in your life like that.
UMvC3's 15th anniversary is in 2 days bros
Whats the best way to play darkstalkers?. Still fightcade or better that Capcom arcade stadium?
>>751578140Yeah, fighting games are such an odd thing where unless you got into it as a kid, you're gonna have a horrible, next to impossible time playing some of the old games. Out of all the old games I've played, only 3rd Strike has had a consistently large player base. For +R specifically, I think just fucking around with it while growing up is about the only way to seriously initiate yourself into its conventions.Guilty Gear itself is just a clusterfuck of a series. If you follow the development of the games, the design philosophy as per the devs' words, and the way they designed spinoffs, you'll realize that Guilty Gear is just a huge exercise in throwing shit at the wall. Arcsys just wanted to push the envelope as much as possible, which is the reason for such asinine design choices like those in +R. That's also why GG was previously among the lesser known and played of their games. At any rate, I think Strive is a good reset on the fundamentals of the series and hopefully the next installment will bring in a bit more complexity while still showing the restraint with which Strive was made.
>>751577240Something something, spic, game is old, full of uncs yadda yadda leave me alone.In all seriousness, those people don't want to play at all.
>>751578912either but fightcade is free
Fuck all of you queers, I breathe red mist up your ass and shit bugs down your throat
>>751578934Fighting games ruined themselves when they decided execution should matter more than decision making and reads. The rise of Japan's love for modern controls in SF6 tells the story everyone already knew: that pretty much no one outside of a tiny minority finds execution checks and memorized rhythm games (combos) to be fun. Fighting games are about reads, not how long you spent playing singleplayer in "the lab" grinding out setplay, combos, and option selects. Next GG should pick up the speed of the game again to +R level, remove the slowdown spam with RC, keep the homogenized aspects that benefited strive (wake ups, weights, general s->hs->special string for every character, etc), remove hard knockdowns, remove burst (crutch mechanic bandaid for combos being way too long and annoying), and limit meterless combos to like 3 hits max without RC and like 6 with meter. The most unique part of old GG was the movement and overall speed of the game, if we could have that minus the execution sloppery I would be very happy.
>People are willing to play some obscure kusoge full of TOD over KOFI will never get this shit.

Should I buy Street Fighter 6 if I got into fighting games with GG Strive? I'm getting a little burned out.
>>751579906>Ehrm TOD kusoge games lmao!!!>Wait not like that!!!!Lol, you're a joke.
>>751579962SF6 is a dumbed down Strive, up to you if you want that or not. In the past SF was traditionally a more 'honest' and defensive series, but SF6 is just as braindead unga bunga full aggro as any anime game is, but without the more fun movement options.
>>751487278seriously dude, the fact that GGX isn't in your top five says something serious about you.all the stupid games that came later, it was a literal 10/10 game.
>>7515799755 stock combos are ridiculous impractical most of time. Not having blowback or emergency roll suck dick.Good hit confirm into SDM already nets you around 50% which is more than enough and only use 2 or 3 stocks.
Are replays from games with disconnects not saved in Avatar?
>>751580220Just take the L already, KoF is a ToD kusoge game literally designed around that being a thing with anchor characters. We need not discuss Ash with the 200+ hit combos that last literally well over 60 fucking seconds.
A game about modern indie series could save the genre

How do people who have very obviously never played KoF develop such strong feelings and opinions about it?

>>751580754...he is not saying it is?Re-read the post.
>>751580503nothing can save the genre because everybody just moves to the stuff with money backing it regardless of how trash it is
>>751580789The assumption he's making is that fightcade numbers mean those are the KoF games people think are best, when in reality they are just the ones people are pirating for free and had rollback the longest via fightcade. Go back in time and put XIII for free on fightcade and it would be that one with all the numbers.
At least call it spic fighter, brown chink or whatever.Stop bullshitting.

>>751584095you can't, just go onlineyou won't really improve even fighting a less dumb CPU, you can learn the basic mechanics but if you spend too much time fighting them you also develop terrible habits that take even longer to unlearnrun through the arcade mode on normal or whatever a few times to get used to moving around, doing attacks, blocking etc, focus on just doing shit and keeping active to get your hands used to the motions, try and learn a couple extremely basic "ABC>launcher>j.ABC>special" level combos for your character in training mode and then just go fight randoms. People with a green square next to their name in the lobby are other new/bad players, they'll probably still be better than you because there's a big difference between brand new and beginner but it's smaller than it seems, and it's important to get over your fear of losing early anyway. fight randoms until you get annoyed or realize you are missing something like an anti air combo or forgot your reversal super input or whatever, then go back to training mode and spend 5 minutes practicing whatever it was, then go back into a random lobby and repeat. This is the only real way to improve, people prefer different proportions of games and labbing and once you have a bit of understanding of the game you can start watching replays or stealing tech from other people but this basic pattern of "play matches, identify something to improve, practice it, play matches" is what everyone from the week 1 player that runs you over with semi-random mashing on your day 1 to the guy that won Evo is doing.
