The constant crossups for pressure is the most persistent SF4 tactic I've seen used. That's what it was like early on in SFV. Two hits blocked, crossup. Rinse and repeat.

Hecatom Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 (edited) BTW, I have to say that I find funny how Capcom decided to copy the great lobby system that ASW started, all while ASW decided to not use it for their flagship franchise for some stupid reason, lmao. Also, this is mostly on me for not reading the mechanics before the beta and just learning it as it goes, but I like how the Parry works more like the shield on the French Bread games, although a more easier version to use do being an all catch parry instead of worrying about high and lows. Edit Another thing, I don't know if is just me, but I could swear that there are times that the game eats my inputs. Dunno if any other one has felt the same thing. Is not often, but there are instances that I am almost sure it is what is happening when I am trying to do a super mid combo for example.

I know they can be beaten with parry and throws but I still get wrecked when someone just throws it out. Nah man im with you Feel like every other option has some kind of sensible trade off, parry isn't great at stopping offense unless it's perfect, perfect parry is hard to do, alpha counter unsafe on block Drive impact though i can't react to and it gets big returns on CH and close (not even all that close sometimes lol) to the wall. Doesn't demand any timing. There are plenty of answers that make it risky like jumping over it, throwing it, doing fast multi hit moves, and it does just hang out there for a long ass time if it whiffs.. so it is probably just a skill issue on my part but right now they feel obnoxious.

Popular Post Chun-Li_Forever Posted October 8, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 8, 2022 Thanks to a PSN friend, I was able to download the beta from an extra access code they got. My impressions on Chun after playing her for a few hours. I think my problem n playing 6 is that I'm playing Chun too much like SF5. I'm not utilizing the stance as well as I should. I only know and use two combos "st.mp, cr.mp, MK SBK" and "cr.mk, OD Legs" I'm not using her Tensho kicks as real AAs, only sticking with her st.mk AA which doesn't do that good of dmg. I play on the PS5 controller, so I'm trying to get used to inputting "down,down" while moving around the screen. It's not something I'm used to, and I'm always left thinking should I use the analog stick or dpad I'm not starting or utlizing light attacks they way they should be used in the game, I'm stuck with always relying on "medium, medium" to start my strings. And when I do use light, I'm timing them like I time chun's "cr.lk, cr.lp, cr.mk, Kikoken" block string I'm still having fun with SF6 Chun. I don't think I've unlocked her true potential just yet. It's gonna take some practice, learning more combos, learning the right strings. and even still, i'm not using Drive Impact properly. Like those who know how to read, counter, and punish the drive impact will be better off than those who spam it or use it predictably So far, the character I've played against the most is Ken. He's still Yolo as ever buttons in this game def feel heavy, and recovery on moves can feel like an eternity. I've never been great with whiff punishing in 5. but i def feel that's something you need to be competent at in 6 JustBooming, BornWinner, HeavensCloud and 10 others 9 4 Link to comment

delete_me Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 Manon seems to have a power-up feature for her command grabs that carries over between rounds. I wonder if it's just a pure numbers boost à la Mika V-Skill (damage) or Hakan oil (range) or if it actually changes how the grab works as they did with G's presidential level. Either way she sounds really interesting, but so do a lot of newcomers. Jocelot, TWINBLADES, Hawkingbird and 1 other 4 Link to comment
