Well they want to be eSports, then they should be able to get their stuff running and organiced on the Nr.1 Plattform for eSports. Not pointing my finger on Capcom alone here I point at all the FG Devs and the FGC in general.

KingTubb Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 Also, PC seems to come with some headaches that console gaming seems to avoid. It's not all the time, but getting controllers to work, bad ports, etc. seems to be a much more common problem on PC. Then again, it's way more open ended, so mods can make your experience way better. It'll be at least another 12-18 months before I even consider picking up a new console, so I'm got plenty of time to mull it over Mattatsu 1 Link to comment

I think if you spec'd out what you'd need to run pretty much all the modern (and probably upcoming FGs) it wouldn't be too terribly high in cost. At least relative to a PS5/XBSX. That's kind of the rub though; part of the benefit of having a PC is that you can use it for a lot more than just that so buying one "just" for FGs seems like you're spec'ing the wrong way. At least you can upgrade later. What tipped it for me was having something PC only that I wanted access to (TTS during lockdown). I think that is when it makes the most sense; when you are getting full use out of the box. Makes me feel a lot better about the investment. Otherwise everything I'm playing now I could still be playing on PS4 (sans MB/3S via FC2 but those are new additions). KingTubb and Mattatsu 2 Link to comment

misterBee Posted October 20, 2020 Author Share Posted October 20, 2020 The PC is a powerful tool. The added power comes at the cost of added complexity, but honestly it's no big deal. In regards to fighting games there is occasional weirdness with controllers, but for the most part it's a non-issue. Steam can translate almost any controller to xinput, which is the standard for PC games. Your PS3/PS4/Switch controllers should work just fine once you set the Steam controller mapping up. Alternatively, if you own a stick with a xbox (xinput) mode you will pretty much have 0 issues. A respectable PC will cost 1.5-2x the price of a console, but you'll be able to use it for years and upgrade it over time. With consoles you buy a new machine whenever Sony/MS/Nintendo tell you to. With a PC you can choose when/what you upgrade based on your needs. The added cost is balanced by having way more control over your experience and how much money you want to put in/how long you want to use your machine. Probably the biggest perk of a PC is the raw performance and game library. With a PC you get access to emulation, as well as the ability to play lots of legacy titles on Steam/Epic/GOG/etc. The idea of a 'remaster' is really a console thing, since a lot of them don't look any better than the PC versions of the same game released many years ago. There's no need to wait for a remaster to be sold to you when you can play the original with newer hardware any time you want. There are also many games that only have life on PC because they are either never made for console or were originally made for consoles that nobody uses anymore. I wouldn't recommend a PC to everyone and the new consoles are certainly very powerful, but there are definitely advantages to owning one. If you want to just play games and not worry about anything then console is still the way to go -- but if you want more versatility, power, and the ability to do other stuff (like streaming/content creation) then a PC is a no-brainer.

If I feel like they're gonna be real stompy NJs can work alright to at least not be there. I feel like half the battle with that move is just trying to mitigate the "get in" factor. I haven't really played a char with an EX reversal so if its blocked just gotta hold it or maybe backdash. Link to comment

If you neutral jump, he can anti air you with st.lp and get a mix out of it. He may have options for stomp whiffing (since it doesnt have the extra animation from the grab), but I'd have to lab them. Think he might be able to EX knee you if you forward jump. If he did back to back EX moves for 1XX damage then dude is on the losing end of things. Link to comment
Illwill88 Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 Speaking of v-reversal, it's something that I never do. It doesn't help that Laura is so dependent on vt so I don't wanna use it. You could probably count the number of times I've used it on purpose in one hand. I know Alex is supposedly bad but I've gotten smacked by him too many times lol. Link to comment

The good thing about Laura is that she gets a knockdown v-reversal. Not sue if she gets a meaty out of it, but she does push them away a good distance. Against Alex, making lose all that ground is a pain. In my ft10 against Hawkingbird, I sort of reviewed how he played based on his replays, then spent some time going over all the knockdowns Alex had to see what he got out of them. Unless its EX knee or EX power bomb, he literaly gets no oki from a damn thing ever (except maybe in the corner). So if you v-reversal away any opportunity he used ots pend meter to force himself in then its RIP for the rest of his pressure and game. It also means that you can take a command grab after one of the situations where the pressure is legitimate. If you do that it means Alex blew his load for further pressure. Capcom sort of hates Alex and its kinda hilarious. Illwill88 and Volt 2 Link to comment
