Popular Post Skort Posted August 9, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 9, 2021 (edited) Hey all, worked more on my Blender and Unreal Engine skills. Actually learned quite a bit lately in UE5. It has a super good SDK for creating environments ( brings me back to the days when i made C.S. maps ) and some starter kit for game developing. I worked more on my Cyberpunk Juri wallpapers and future animation to the point that i am considering importing her model to Unreal Engine from Blender 3D and using it to have a free roam / mini racing game with Juri. I'm gonna try my best to do this. Regardless, here is what i managed to make so far. Edited August 9, 2021 by Skort HeavensCloud, Pair of Rooks, Volt and 14 others 17 Link to comment

BornWinner Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 You ever lost so bad, you ignore someone being horribly transphobic to make a point? That is what’s happening with SonicFox and Perfect Legend in some drama only the NRS community can cook up. Perfect Legend, NRS player and best known for going 13-0 against SonicFox, recently found out that SF has been taking adderall for his ADHD. Knowing that Adderall is a performance enhancement and illegal in sports (for people that aren’t prescribed it, unlike SonicFox), he makes this post. Spoiler Basically calling SonicFox a cheater for taking it. If it was by itself, people probably would’ve called PL stupid and left it at that. But in the original Facebook post, there was some guy who really seemed to dislike SonicFox. Spoiler Not sure who Ado Joestar is or really care, but he is shown filming some transphobic insults at SF. When called about it, PL ignores it and continues with Adderall being illegal. So now he’s getting some heat for it. It seems like this could have all been avoided somehow and it’s real stupid too. Though it is funny that PL think SonicFox being called ‘It’ is the same level of people memeing on him for going 13-0. Spoiler AriesWarlock and Volt 2 Link to comment

I agree with with you that what Ado said is not his fault or that PL’s a bigot from what I can see. I just think he’s stupid with thinking the medicine that SonicFox is prescribed is the reason they’re good at gaming and trying to notify the esports @ with it. 23 minutes ago, Volt said: Uhhhh, 0-13.

If an FG has interesting characters, engaging lore and deep layers in its mechanics, why would a properly balanced cast diminish any of that? An overpowered tool that is fun to use will still be fun to use if it's slightly toned down. Because devs haven't made a balanced game yet. What we do have examples of are games where many characters have powerful tools, which are also fun to use, but are technically unbalanced. The overwhelming majority of games we've played competitively have had a firm S tier in a lot of cases. So when you look at what many years of of FGs have shown us, is that people don't keep playing based on balance. They keep playing in terms of fun. They'll also keep playing games where they feel they can still win with their character choice. The reason why this is important for DBF is because, as a last patch, they had to make a choice on what to do: they could keep rearranging the current toolset of characters to even up matches or they could add more tools to each characters and hope for the best. When I say hope for the best, I'm not implying they just added things at random. But its that ultimately it doesn't matter how much they want to constrict things to achieve some balance, players are going to disrupt it anyways. 4 hours ago, Volta said: Why not both? ST is a lot of fun, but I can't help but vomit inside my mouth a little every time my opponent picks Claw or Boxer. Surely, with today's updates and patches, a game that is balanced should be pretty much mandatory. Balanced is kinda lofty. The best we can do is to ask for a game that doesn't have obviously inherently stupid things. There are a myriad of inherently stupid things. For example, unblockables. Season 1 Mika was going out there doing some hilariously stupid stuff that couldn't be fixed (instead they compromised how much access she had to it with certain nerfs). Let's take SF5 Ryu for example. He used to hit really hard, then he got nerfed to hell. Then they gave him stuff that didn't help. Then finally gave him more stuff that overall didn't help. What it did do was make him fun to play for some stuff. He didn't shoot up in tiers. But instead of having 7-3 match ups, he has 6-4s because he can deal more damage now. SHould you take SF5 ryu to tournaments? Nope. Can you take him and beat some good people? Yep. The problem is compounded further when take into account how many characters modern games have? How are you really gonna balance a game with 40 characters? Even after you take mirrors out, you still end up with an ungodly amount of match ups. Then you get into the type of super complicated characters ArcSys games (complicated in the amount of moves and options they give their characters) and its no wonder they constantly have some jack slawed S tier shitting on a lot of the cast. But, if you give the rest of the cast enough tools to where they are fun, people will ignore the blatant balance issues and be happy their characters have cool stuff to do (AC+R). 3 hours ago, Hecatom said: There is this misconception on some people (usually people who come from SF/Marvel backgrounds) that making a game balanced, means that it wouldn't be fun, which is one of the most dumb posture to have. Is specially prevalent on those who come from Marvel 2, where they do those mental gymnastics where they presume that trying to balance Marvel will make it less fun for example. There's no misconception. We don't have any balanced games. We do have a bunch of games with multiple tiered characters though. A "Balanced" game is some malarkey that gets tossed around as if its something that's ever happened. The only thing we can ask is for there to be no overwhelmingly dumb character and for a lot of the cast to have strong tools. As for MvC2, balancing that game would require nerfing the God 4 characters. If you nerf those characters, you end up taking away a lot of what makes it really interesting competitively. You can give the low tier characters more tools. But when you start giving them tools to be on even keel with those 4 characters, you're going to potentially end up creating some monsters along the way that end up shitting on the rest of the cast. So instead of God 4, you have God 8. So nah, I'm happy with the MvC2 that exists with its weird imbalance but really interesting gameplay. If the gameplay wasn't engaging, it wouldn't have stuck around for so long. Shakunetsu, Volt and Hecatom 1 2 Link to comment

We have plenty of games that are both balanced (enough) and fun (which is kind of subjective.) The fact is that games being balanced have more tendency of being fun than unbalanced ones, since there are more variety of options to be used. Take for example MVC2, a darling for the usa fgc for sure. But it was held back immensely because the garbage balance it had, to the point where outside of USA, it didn't really had an impact.

From being an almost instant multihit, full screen fireball to blowing up throw techs up close when done airborne it's like having EX Tackle and a Divekick all in one move. Unless of course the frame data doesn't back this all up and she's super negative on block after the airborne version for example. We'll see. In any case, I really like her so far. She's also the first character in the game where these IMO unecessary flourishes after every attack look good and make sense. Link to comment

An easy counterpoint to the whole, lol balancing is mutually exclusive to a game being fun is the same DBFZ, where with each major patch they not only make the game more balanced, with more characters and more strategies being possible each time, all while adding new mechanics that are very game changing since it usually involves adding more options for the player to fuck up everything.
