Not surprised.

Fun Nash things: I know I always whine about excessive corner carry in SFV but Nash can actually comer to corner carry with VT2 + 1 EX. Gets oki from it too. 
 

Stealth Dash is fun because it let’s him do SFV things, just with a bit more opportunity cost ig. 
 

Edit: I should also use EX Tragedy Assault more. Like half stage corner carry, oki, and a bit of life steal that combos from a jab. Definitely not a bad move but I often need my meter for other stuff 😕

It reminds me of Lucia VT2 (the one I use). It gives a free launch/buffer, even of normally non-cancelable moves. This seems good until you see what better VTs can do.

 

It’s extra annoying on Lucia as her confirms are not good.

What if the reason for backwards compatability on sticks for PS5 is that Sony is paying for SF6?

[Shakunetsu]

It's likely for sony to do  again SF as an exclusive?

 

Do you think so?

I'm annoyed by how much it plays like a 90s game. It doesn't feel like much has changed from EX2. 

What made it move and plays dated?

 

Thanks

It's purposely made to feel like the old EX games, so that's really no surprise.

 

If you didn't like EX you won't like FEXL.

The SF Dev team gotta give us DLC before the new year right?? 
 

when the hell does Season 5 actually start?? 

[BornWinner]

December. That’s when they said Dan would be released.

I’m pretty sure Dan was said to be released in december, as well as a balance patch and some new system mechanic or something that hasn't been mentioned yet.

 

Dec 21st rings a bell, but i’m also starting my vacation that day so idk

[Mattatsu]

Nice! I forgot we were getting Oro... in 9 months from now, shit

“Capcom is looking for a fighting game production battle planner who has ‘experience in participating in fighting game competitions and having achieved excellent results’ "

 

 

@EvilCanadian  posted this on Twitter, saying SF6 has been in development for a while (which i believe is speculative, but probably true since S5 wasn't in the cards), so it’s odd they’d be looking for this now. He mentioned that maybe it’s for a new VS game, though maybe without Marvel.

 

Thoughts?

 

I’m hoping they’ve already got one lined up for SF6, but you never know. Ono just “resigned” not too long ago, so they may be starting fresh.

 

i like that they’re looking for a top competitive player though, but I’m not sure who’d make a good battle planner.

I have zero faith in Capcom working on anything not SF5 S5 or SF6. SF5 worked out financially due to its long tail but MH/RE are what keep Capcom's lights on now so all actual resources are going to go to those teams. At this point I'd assume they are just trying to shore things up so that SF5's final season plugs along, and that SF6 come out in a better state than SF5 did.

 

I'd absolutely love to be wrong, and I'd love to be even more wrong and see the impossible dream of a good, new Vs game come out. But I feel like Capcom is going into FG maintenance mode for the foreseeable future. 

 

Also @FlyingVe: got KI set up yesterday. Mercifully easy to get up and running, especially once I realized the hitbox had a PC switch. And so far as I can tell I have everything. I have absolutely lost whatever muscle memory I had with this game, though my time with SF5 did help me hit manuals more easily. 🙂

I've heard rumors the guy was pushed out and is difficult to work with. Also, that he had a chunk of SF6 already made under his watch and it sucked, which was a big reason they asked him to leave. 

 

This is all hearsay tho.

Yup. If they have any other fight game related stuff, it'll be more cards for teppen or some other mobile release. It would be cool if they started added rollback to old games like ASW and SNK is doing, but I get the feeling that they aren't looking to use any of their fighter IPs for an actual fighting game for a looooong time. Probably will depend on how well SF6 does, and maybe even how well Strive does with Rollback

Apparently, he went apeshit when some of the victory quotes in SFIV weren't translated to his liking. He may have a side to him that we, as the public, never see.

Ono is definitely a lowkey savage. But he also had to fight Capcom Tooth and Nail on a lot of stuff. Its hard to tell in that situation.

 

Similar to the Seth Killian stuff. You could tell in his interviews that there were a lot of things he disagreed with but still had to defend.

[KingTubb]

Heard Ono was a big reason that he left, same for combofiend.

 

But I'm a gossipy bitch, so take it with a grain of salt

[FlyingVe]

Capcom is definitely making an SF6 to get it out early on next gen.

 

beyond that I agree with everyone here, not likely. The best chance MvC4 has, is if the failure of the avengers game makes Disney willing to play cheap and nice... but I doubt that.

Xrd Engine really is that crazy. You probably shouldn't even have dips. What are your specs and settings?

 

Xrd uses a heavly modified Unreal Engine 3 as far as I'm aware.

A lot also comes down to the Artsytle and well, actually putting time and effort into making those.

Yeah, I forgot the actual engine name, that's why I said it like that.

 

At any rate, it's more about the techniques used to achieve that artstyle. Thing is incredibly well-optimized.

You know there is one way to make the Dan thing less garbage.

 

Make him free. It’s fine that Dan is included as a joke, but don’t charge people for it, and don’t present him as taking a legit spot on the roster.

Edited November 13, 2020 by FlyingVe

[Sonero]

Casuals love Dan. He was probably a compromise to get Akira in the game. Throw normies a bone, add a character for the hardcore.

 

I understand the reasoning, but having trash characters for the hell of it is played out.

[FlyingVe]

I agree, he definitely got in due to his popularity, but even the casuals don’t actually play Dan.

 

So I agree, putting serious effort into a trash character for meme points is a waste.

Edited November 13, 2020 by FlyingVe

[Sonero]

Yeah...at this point Dan is kinda like thr Adam Sandler Comedy of SF characters. Great at the time but doesnt reallt hit the mark in modern times.

[FlyingVe]

Maybe we get lucky and they drop a bunch of characters at once.

 

however SFV is really on its last legs at this point, and COVID has not helped. I also can’t help but feeling a little miffed about champions edition. I bought that thinking it was the end, the complete package.

 

Turns out I was a fool.

[BornWinner]

Dan is the Baiken of Street Fighter

[Jocelot]

Put Street Fighter on the backburner for now, Capcom. Give us instead a new Rival Schools and give it Rollback. Mainly because I wanna see HD Natsu 😳

No, Baiken is actually cool.

 

People don't play Baiken because she needs to block to get most of her specials out and scrubs don't block. 🙃

[FlyingVe]

Blocking is the cowards way out.

 

Besides you get more revenge meter when you get hit. It’s a win-win.

[Sonero]

Baiken is a dope character though.

 

Wtf? Dont disrespect her like that.

[Mr.Cipher]

A character everyone loves/requests/pretends to play, but no one actually does touch this character.

Cause to hard/bad.

 

Most "Baiken" player, played the game for 2 hours and have her as favorite character, cause "hahaha giant tits, me like giant tits!". Always have a Nivea bottle ready and a Fap Folder with her name on it.

[FlyingVe]

This was supposed to be baiken’s derp new walk cycle, but I can’t figure out how to embed gifs right now.

I see no speculation about the final character at all, does anyone still care at this point? SFV is seriously overstaying its welcome.

What's the point in speculating when the character is so far off? I rather spend my time on things I do know about.

[Jocelot]

I feel like Bridget is the Dan of GG. At least in Xrd's heyday. I was honestly baffled at how much people apparently loved that character. Because when I used to be active on Dustloop the Bridget section was honestly the most deserted

I've been really curious, but sadly we have nothing to go on. People think the character will be male due to the number of costumes. Some people think it'll be a crossover character (I hope not), me? I just think they weren't ready to show off whoever at the time, though, maybe it's a super secret, final boss? I have no idea what to expect due to the silence overall.

[Sonero]

I hope they add more characters with long lights. Love running into those when the netcode is spazzing out.

Also, there are already too many characters.

 

obviously that could change when I see them in action, but now it’s hard to get hype over more food when you are stuffed to bursting.

Just noticed that Steam is running a Fighting Game sale, and the splash page actually has a break-out section just to highlight games with rollback netcode:

It's nothing short of a travesty that MK11 is the only modern, big budget fighting game with rollback netcode (yes, I omitted SFV on purpose).

Tekken 7’s netcode is apparently amazing now.

 

... still takes a long time to load rematches tho 

[BornWinner]

Alright, my first thumbs down! I don’t even hate Baiken, she’s pretty cool. Just noticed the similarity between casual players liking and requesting for them and never playing them.

Oh yeah, my bad, I forgot that got a makeover. Still won't make me play Tekken, though.

[Mattatsu]

I know @BornWinner @GetTheTables and @Shahenzan have GG Rev2 on PS4. Does anyone else?

 

I think Born Winner and I are getting some matches in this weekend (if it all works out). Honestly, I may start to play this more if there’s enough interest.

The breakout section pans horizontally when you hit those arrows at the sides;  Tekken 7 is in there for 9.99.

 

Yeah, I don't love playing the 3D titles either, but credit where it is due.
