MvC3's 4 Buttons >>> MvC2/MvC:I's 4 buttons
What are we playing in the weekend lads
>>1572708I've got Infinite & Beyond installed, so I'd love to put up a lobby for it, but otherwise I could play a lot of things. Got any preferences?
>>1572654Based and true. Hyper games don't need the Punch/Kick split.>>1573095Beyond has made me realize just how many solid ideas were buried under the dogshit presentation and system mechanics that the mod fixed. The DLC characters are ALL fun as fuck, especially Sigma & Venom. Even Widow who I loathed as a pick is one of the most versatile and fun mixup characters I've seen in a long while.

>>1573179Yeah, I've always heard Infinite players go on about how it was a fun game if you got past the graphics and disappointment with the roster, but I just never got around to it because it's a pretty big install for what'll just be a discord fighter that's inherently harder to draw people into.Trying it now, I've been enjoying it a lot. Granted, some of these characters I didn't play in MvC3, and I wouldn't know what balance changes they made, but I'll just say that in 5min of playing Nemesis, I was immediately and naturally drawn to wanting to find corner rocket loops and tentacle/rocket active tag confirms all on my own in training mode. It's been a while since I've played something that makes me immediately want to go looking for sauce.
>>1573388Nemesis is my main in 3 so he's actually kind of weird to go back to in Infinite (same with Hulk but I actually don't like playing Hulk pre-MvC3 either, just that one iteration) but he is really sick and I do mess around with him. I run Sigma/Venom mostly but I've done some Sigma/Nemesis and labbed out a bit of other characters. Widow I've surmised is cool as fuck but way beyond my execution level. Really my biggest issue with the roster is how prevalent Ultron & Gamora are when they're both really fucking boring mechanically (Gamora much more so) and Gamora also just generally being a shit choice even among Cosmic Marvel. I also remember them basically shipping her with Hiryu in the story mode and that was also cringe.

uni games?
>>1575186Perchance with me?
>>1575229yee ill game. Think we just played earlier. KW epic
GGs need to stretch
>>1575320GGs, that was one hell of a draw earlier
>>1575325oh thanks for reminding me, that match in particular was grueling..
>>1572708Doing USF4 Elena trials for the first time in ages. Love this game but I gotta say, if they added hard execution back into these games 90% of fgc boomers would develop arthritis in like a week
>>1572708SFZero2; SFZero3 is too much for me.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QsNpZG6uTgI
>>1575913I want to say I prefer A3 but V-ism and Dhalsim are just so powerful. I'm glad Upper is part of the new collection, maybe people will realize that nerfing those two makes for a better game and pick it up.
Jann lee is such a fuckin' cool character, that's all.
>>1576433https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lyx1mhqNQYEWorst thing about the DOA series is that it is now notoriously known for being the "gooners game" while it offers pretty good mechanics overall for casuals and competitive players alike
>>1576437DOA gets such a bad rep. It is really fucking depressing. I remember playing the shit out of a demo for 2 on my dreamcast as a little kid a fuck ton. Played the shit outta Ein if I remember right
>>1576451Yeah it is really depressing, Hopefully VF6 paves some way for a good take on the 3D element of things, I tried playing VF5FS and the netcode was awful
>>1576437>>1576451In all fairness, it was absolutely DOA that chose that rep. I remember DOA3 being absolutely sick and DOA5 still finding some time in an era where the 3D Fightan of choice for a bunch of dudes around the Xbox was Soulcalibur instead, but Tecmo sure didn't like to push the actual fightans like they did Xtreme
>>1576061Japan has Alpha3 tournaments where you're only allowed A-ism or X-ism. Shows you the power of V-ism. Haha.

>>1575913Is there a quick and easy way to read about the major differences between Alpha 2 and 3, like what the addition of new mechanics and balance changes meant for a different game feel. I imagine there's some guy's youtube video about it somewhere, but jesus do FGC talking heads often like to ramble and I just like quick reads with pictures.
>>1577548Alpha 2 is unbalanced buggy mess Alpha 3 is unbalanced buggy mess Hope I helped
>fell for the frame data meme>fell for the training mode meme>fell for "watch how the good players perform"All I have to do is grind

>>1582349i would legit start whooping people if they diss me like that in the parking lot after following them out the night of
>>1583593>wait in the parking lot>I-I'M HERE TO KICK YOUR ASS>uhh nah man, one mo>walks past
>>1583662wtf would i announce it instead of doing it like tanya harding what am i an anime character lolmaybe i'll announce my special moves while i'm doing them too
If TFH bro from the last thread is here, I could play for an hour at around 6PM ET. Give me a (You) if you're up.
>>1583663aight bro just one mo tho
Can we schedule a lobby for weekends in something
Slow board I know. But any gamers up now at euro midnight hours? I'd love to fence literally anyone as bad as me.
>>1584946I wonder if there's something all or the majority of us play? Or if we could cycle games? I've been in a real SNK mood lately but I could probably always go back to SF2.
>>1583958I just finished doing most of the stuff for the day and ate, but I think it is past the time you had. Thanks for remembering me anyhow friend
>>1585088Hellish fart doesn't even have multiplayer
>>1585339Actually, I'm free right now for a couple matches, wanna play?>>1585132There was this pollhttps://strawpoll.com/Qrgeb90l2ZpBut it's gotten a bit unweildy, I was toying with strawpolls setting so people can just write their own answers, and have those answers also be available for future anons that vote, but strawpoll only allows me one "Other" so while being able to combine same "Others", you cannot choose multiple. If anybody knows how we can do it be my guest. Maybe comments on a google poll and have the owner update the options?
>>1585356Sure. I've got 30 minutes before my stuff in the wash needs to be moved
>>1585356>jive has 0 votes Oh nonono
>>1585369Works for me, going to US West 3
GGs lad, I'm not as rusty as I expected, I'm not any good to begin with lmao. Velvet used to be my best matchup if you can believe that.Until next time!
>>1585486Well played. I haven't played an Arizona in awhile. My execution still has some 'getting back into form' to do, but that was probably the hardest I've played since booting this game back up. Well when it isn't some dude stomping my shit so hard I can't figure out what to do lol
>>1585496If it helps, I caught you jumping back as retreat a lot, gave me tons of possibilities to catch you with the rope.Also god damn I cannot react to the slowest overhead in the world lmao, I think I blocked it once in the entire set.
>>1585529Her 214C? You blocked it a decent amount. I kept seeing the elbows coming, but eating them anyway. Yeah I was jump backing a lot, but that wasn't always my intention. Fucking up my inputs man. I meant to training mode a little to try to get TK icicles down again. I can't seem to do them consistently on the fly. There were a few times I would 5C, hit you, and then nothing. Wasn't supposed to be nothing, but nothing came out. Probably just missing the cancel window. Also I need to practice half circle icicles to not accidently get eruptions. Also practice dp timings for eruptions. Something with the buffer is different. Basically. I'm ass cheekems
>>1585486>>1585496But what if ~I~ wanted to play and ~I~ happened to be busy a couple hours longer than ~I~ expected and ended up being unavailable to play without previously mentioning it beforehand in the thread? Did you consider that at all?
>>1585774Suffering from anonymity
>>1584946That'd be cool. I'm interested in MBAACC, MBTL, UNI, BB, SkullGirls, and SC6.
