Edit 2: @VoltYou know I'm Eminem levels of petty and would buy the game to play you and not play Pertho on principle right. 🙃

Finding out the hard way to be honest, but you can still save the money and come get this L for free in +R since you already got that.

 

So, which one do you want?

[Sonero]

If you bought the PS5 version, you also own the PS4 one. Its a crossbuy title.

Give me a time tomorrow. Once I get out of work. I'm going home, taking a shower, grabbing my shit, and driving to VA. Should be there by midnight. Bruh you better cook me in +R, I know as much about that game as Cyclops knows about fidelity. 👀

I mean you might also try Remote Play from Steam.

I played some FGs with that, was pretty ok.

The DNF game looks like a low budget Guilty Gear from what I can tell. Not bad, but real combo heavy.

Looks better than Guilty Gear in my opinion.  Maybe not in terms of pure graphical power but the character designs and artistic direction is right up my alley.  I couldn't find a main in Strive but almost every character in DNF so far has looked interesting to me.  The gameplay looks way more fun as well.

Game looks freaking nuts to be honest. Gonna treat it like its some weird tag game with a single character.

 

You trying to catch games this weekend though?

Yeah, I'll let you know.  Probably going to be doing mostly labbing tonight.

Jesus Christ I never want go back to playing games without a dash button/macro. It’s so much better than double tapping forward.

Ain't no point then. I don't care for W's I steal out of unfamiliarity.

 

Despite the fact that one match I won obviously allowing me to live rent-free in your head to the point you found it necessary to write a whole paragraph shitting on me, @Sonerowas the one ethering you. Go play him instead.

Ethering me? That's disrespecting Nas. I think the only person I haven't played in a game here Cipher. Hell I even played SFIV with peeps here and hate that game. So Ether? Nah. If enough of my friends are playing game, I'll play it even if it isn't my cup of tea because playing shit with people you know is usually fun. Unfortunately, its the closest thing left to the arcade experience for me and probably most of us here.

Before anybody misconstrued anything,  I was just being silly since Darc and I have gone at length about how wrong he is on FF7.

[Mattatsu]

PS4 licensed controllers don’t seem to work with the PS5 version of DNF (at least in the beta).

 

PS4 version should be okay, but this will likely be a PC purchase for me, if I like it

 

edit: also, there is no training mode in the beta, just online matches, so it really is like stumbling on that new game in the arcade you know nothing about lol… should be fun

PS4 controllers won't work on PS5 games. Mainly due to Duel Shock 4s not having the features unique to the duel sense.

Third party PS4 licensed controllers used to work with PS5 games. Every other PS5 fighting game I have works with my PS4 obsidian, without any issues.

 

anyways, this beta is brucked. I can’t seem to find a room to join so I made my own but cannot move around in it to join a station. The room looks similar to Rev2 lobbies fwiw

 

edit: just tested PS5 versions of MK11 and  Strive, and my controller works fine of them.

 

anyways, DNF doesn’t seem like a game I’m going to buy

Looks like it ain't fully up yet. Sonero is labbing vs the CPU and talking about it on Discord.

 

Game sounds BANANAS. 🤣

[Vhozite]

Can whoever is playing record some footage and take notes for those of us who can’t play?

I don’t know. I played about 10 matches against the CPU and turned it off. There are a few things I don’t like about it. Could just be me though.

 

The characters have a lot of moves. There are two attack buttons, two skill (special) buttons, and one super button. Each of the skill buttons has like 4 specials tied to it, so there may be a lot of combo options/juggles I haven’t explored, but I wasn’t having much fun… I was expecting this game to be something else though. I’ll give it another shot later and see if it peaks my interest more.

Online seems to be up for the Beta.

[Mattatsu]

Hold is your throw and your conversion skill sacrifices health for meter. Your health can regenerate at times, but I haven’t figured out under what circumstances.

 

the MP skills are your EX specials. They use meter to do and are done with one-direction + button. Meter seems to recharge by itself, at least enough to do one MP skill.

 

Super is done when your meter is full and can be done by a single button press. seems like you can maybe only do it once a round, even if meter is full (I could be wrong though)

 

no air dashes. You can double tap and hold forward for a run. Double tap back for backdash. Movement feels on the slower side to me, but tbh, I was disappointed there was no air dash, so my opinion may be skewed.

 

the buttons are big.

Gray/White health regens. Probably with time like most games.

 

Apparently, only Blue/Metered specials do real Red damage tho, which is kinda wild. They don't want you to hold meter at all.

Oh, so doing non-MP skills allows your opponent’s health to regenerate, but MP skills don’t. That’s interesting

This, does look better than I had expected, I have to watch more footage, but this does interest me.

[Vhozite]

I watched that video and it looks cool but I still don’t really get how the HP works

[TWINBLADES]

I finally got some matches in with a real human. I’m using Kunoichi and she feels pretty good. Have to get better at figuring out what links into what on the fly.

So you can either hold the guard button or back to block? Interesting.

There are essentially four attack buttons: A, B, skills (normal specials), and MP skills (EX specials).

 

The A, B, and skills buttons inflict normal damage which leaves a little bit of white health that is recoverable. This white health recovers if you aren’t being attacked (getting hit or blocking attacks)

 

when you hit an opponent with an MP skill, which uses the blue meter below the health bar, the health removed is non-recoverable, and it also takes away any white health they had.

 

here’s another match I just found. If you watch the meters on during the match, it may click. Also, the small blue meters near the clock are guard meters. I believe there may be guard crushes if it runs out

Are you sure about that? I tried it last night and I got hit.

Think of it as a team game, you got real damage + recoverable damage on hit. EX/MP/Metered Skills eat the opp's white health and do full damage.

 

The white health can be used for recovering by waiting a bit like normal chip health or for Conversion.

I ain't even mad, you can also hold back to block like GBVS.

 

And y'know, this game actually looks good unlike MK. 🙃

[Reticently]

All these new FG titles coming out without cross play  really starting to get to me.  I've been moving away from even having my PS4 hooked up, given how wild my kids get. Don't need them trying to play catch chucking Dualshocks at each other's heads.

[Mattatsu]

This game looks good, no doubt, but it’s also somewhat generic with so many other games looking similar nowadays.

 

Personally, I think MK11 looks better that this. The realism in the character’s faces is frankly incredible… It’s definitely not perfect, and there’s lots of room for

improvement, but that’s my opinion. I’ve mostly preferred realism over anime/cartoon aesthetics.

How fast you gain meter you shouldn't hold it at all

You will need the guard button for dodge.

 

The art direction of the source game looks better than this. This doesn't have the grit of that style.

I don't know that SF6 can be as fun as Strive AND DNF Duel.

 

The netcode in this game is crazy too. Played a bunch of games with a dude who was on 8 bars of rollback. Felt better than a 3 bar connection in SF5. Not saying to shit on SF5 but as a point of comparison.

 

Its crazy how much work ArcSys is putting into the netcode thing.
