Maki or riot

The only way we'll see Haggar again is either if Capcom makes an all-star title, a Crossover fighting game, or resurrects FINAL FIGHT There was a mention of a remake of the first game in the ransomware leak from 3 years ago but nothing has manifested since It's otherwise painfully obvious Capcom see Haggar and Zangief competing for the same spot in the roster when it comes to Street Fighter, and they continue to give priority to legacy characters from SF2 rather than give more chances to newer faces. It's also why even in Marvel we've had Gief not Haggar in 1 and 2, and when the latter made it into 3 the former was nowhere to be seen IV lasted for 7 years and went through 3 major revisions, they've added 4 FF CHARACTERS, ONE OF WHOM IS A GRAPPLER BY THE WAY, still no Haggar V lasted 6 years and went through 2 major revisions and 5 seasons, added another 3 FF characters, still no Haggar I'm not expecting him to pop up in 6 either. Fucking Carlos and Roxy have higher chances than him it seems

Insane that SF6 is already on track to break 2.5m copies in barely 5 months, that is a MASSIVE difference in financial performance compared to V I think by 1st anniversary it'll easily cross 3 million, if not more. Which also means it's a guaranteed spot in Capcom hall of fame

Proposal to call the guy Gigachikun from now on

Was no one watching the CPT Singapore premier today? Pretty much all of the SEA region top players are there and already a ton got eliminated in the pool stages

Considering the dumb shit JSO activists keep doing it's likely a corporate funded group designed to discredit actual anti-oil movement to keep the corporations like Aramco and Petronas going instead of humanity collectively moving away from fossils. Same exact story as when the campaigning against nuclear power took place and now Germany for example has shut down most of its down and went back to using coal plants for electricity

Top tiers and high tiers get swapped around for season 2 before going back in season 3, at least one bottom tier character somehow gets nerfed, the notes are full of "changed the hitbox, changed the hurtbox" comments.

Nobody knows the dhalsim match up, as usual

I think I've just accepted that the world has gone completely batshit fucking insane over everything that's taken place over the last few years

I do see why, I just don't agree with it. I'm not saying Jamie should just be in permanent necalli mode once he hits drink level 4, that'd be fucking ridiculous (plus how many characters are there that retain whatever install they have inbetween rounds across the genre?). I'm saying between him and Manon they don't feel to be designed all that well to me, and there's a discrepancy among the resource management characters. Call it a hot take or whatever.

Manon gets to delete an increasingly large part of your healthbar no matter how many rounds you're up or down vs the opponent Jamie gets to become a decent character for one round by giving up his oki 4 times or spending 2 super bars makes perfect sense

Jamie will jump up in tiers if Capcom changes the drinks system to be like Manon's so his levels carry over between rounds (but you have to drink one more time for the Necalli V trigger) The Itazan ptsd still haunts the guy

There's only one correct way to redeem yourself - FT100 in a mirror match

It helps that momo especially sits for like 10-15 hours just studying the character in the lab at first

That's why after watching the beta footage and trying out the demo for the trust time i felt that the Super meter is... Well... Kind of isolated? Like you use it ONLY for supers and nothing else - your command dash, parrying, guard cancel, armored crusher, AND ex moves are all tied to the same drive gauge. They could've at least kept the ex requirement for the Super gauge since you keep the stocks between rounds anyway and it'd keep the strategic element of choosing what to prioritise, cashing everything out with a cinematic super or consuming a chunk here and there for some additional damage or making yourself safe or chipping out the opponent in burnout. What we got instead is Supers are accessible to you at all times when thout having to choose just one like 3S, but once your drive gauge is gone you lose literally every all other mechanic present in the game

Does anybody? I feel like no matter the fighting game, every time there's even a minor patch the notes say you can't watch replay data anymore

So how are we feeling about AKI? Solid mid? Borderline bottom? Hidden top once tech is discovered?

Justin will never live the moment 37 down, poor dude

To me the lily alt just looks like discount Talim but at least it sports a different hairstyle so by it's already miles ahead of the default

Never underestimate the amount of types, preferences and fetishes people have discovered over the years through fighting game women

You should know by now it's part of the street fighter cycle Current game is out for long, people say it's wack, new one releases, everybody's hype, honeymoon phase, then players are beginning to hate on the current game and getting nostalgic about the previous I've been calling it months and months ago that we'd unironically get folks saying V is better than 6, and it seems to be kicking in almost 4 months later

The worst part is when you do unlock characters, apparently that shit's tied to WB servers so for example if you completed the story but couldn't auth - you gotta wait until the servers went back up. Also I couldn't confirm it but looks like DLC characters suffer the same fate, so at the moment I have no fucking idea how people are supposed to hold locals and majors without having a ps5 or xbsx connected to network at all times just so players get to use the entire roster. It's brain dead stupid but not unexpected from a company like Warner Bros - and judging by the news from these last couple of years they're burning money quick and will either have to sell off franchises to stay afloat or go fucking bankrupt

... Did I miss something?

Do we expect any news from Tokyo game show next week? Obviously they've already shown AKI, we know her release date, but Capcom typically have a decent presence at the event and we're still waiting for those costumes from the EVO panel
