A bit random but you know that lil intro before the match starts in SF 6 where both characters walk towards the ring ? 

 

I am really curious how they are gonna pull that one out when it comes to evil characters like Juri, Bison, Seth etc. 

 

I don't see Juri waving to the public that's for sure.But imagine some of these evil characters getting a animation where they punch someone from the crowd while moving towards the ring lol.  

 

EDIT : this seems fitting...

 

i can see villains have bad guy gimmicks, but i doubt they will get any interaction with the background characters as stages changes and so the intro background (and npc) changes too i think 

 

Closest is probably going to be fake interaction where they insult or try to scare the audience

I think it's also possible that SF6 doesn't launch early 2023 tbh, or at least not February. I know vanilla SFIV / SFV set the precedent but who knows, maybe 6 will break the mold in that regard. 

 

That or maybe the game actually won't launch with all 22 of the leaked characters? Ehhh I dunno I could be totally wrong but jeah guess we'll see

Considering what they showed and knowing they got waaay more stuff already done but hiding it for marketing bullshit schedule, i would not be pessimistic tbh

I don't see any SF4 videos anymore on my YT feeds despite I watch tons of old and new FGs but in twitter I continuously see a a few occasionally like 3 or 4 in a week

Y'all ain't using incognito mode? 🤣

[Jocelot]

I go incognito to watch clips from shows I'm interested in so the algorithm doesn't post spoiler videos on my recommended. Really fuggin' annoying seeing spoilers for stuff the day the episode drops 😔

DNF needs some unsafe shit. Finding holes in blockstrings and things to punish is a pain in the ass. 

All the unsafe moves can be chained into each other. It practically renders any potential punish non existent because who the fuck is gonna dare to steal their turn against Hitman? Lol 

that’s why I treat this game like fucking mega man. Fuck the frame data I’ll just watch the big move hit the ground then jump and shoot!

The chaining has it's limit (unless your Striker). It would be good for some moves to no longer chain when they are blocked. The move Hitman does where he throws his sword, Ranger's slide

236M? I don't think that one actually chains into anything. Isn't the common gatling A -> B -> S -> MS?

 

It's +2 tho, so I get that you can't exactly try to mash after it. You play Grappler, right? I don't think he has a lot of options if Hitman's 2A reaches after that. Dealing with a "5f" low sounds rough for him. It should be easier to deal with it if 2A ain't a threat tho.

 

I can't wait to see what will happen after people really start to lab those matchups.

[Shakunetsu]

No actual Orochi anywhere or transformation

 

So hoping for Goenitz and Orochi someway to return as a Boss battle.

Custom Moveset = Doom, might as well go to Mugen in that case

I’m 90% certain Shermie jumping into her own lightning bolt in her level 3 is a reference to the fact she could kill herself with her HSDM in 2002 unlimited.

You could fuzzy mash certain parts of that string. Although honestly the theory fighting stuff might be the worst part of the current FGC.

 

Dudes out here doing bad mix ups and then using jargon to defend them too.

[TWINBLADES]

Match making and rank is so fucked in DNF. If you’re Tarranite rank or higher and play against someone in Diamond or lower you won’t gain any medals and you won’t rank the loser down. But in Diamond 3/4 I can streak off of Gold 4 and under. That’s so fucked.

[Sonero]

Honestly I much rather have the tower than the goofy DNF/SF5 rank system.

What hell no...that tower drove me nuts.  Much prefer having a ranked and casual match option.  

[delete_me]

People have been saying "overhead YX is super slow and reactable" for pretty much the entire lifespan of SFV but you can go online and look at literally any tournament footage and see pros getting hit by them left and right, including the so-called "slow" ones like Balrog's and Laura's. Heck you even see people get away with jump-ins relatively often.

i see a lot of people express that and dont really get why

sure, the tower was not very good as a ranked mode, in that skill level at floors 10/celestial varied wildly within floors much less between them. You can also pick matches, dodge people etc which is wack for a ranked mode

 

h o w e v e r

 

the tower was great in that it put everyone playing in the same place, and had enough social functions to meet or target specific people in it. I thought it was pretty cool that I can see top players grinding and play them if I want/go out of my way to get specific character matchup exp. It was a flawed take on ranked in that it didnt really provide an actual rank to grind and had DIY matchmaking, but I think it was actually fantastic for trying to get better/meeting consistent players. I think it had more to offer than the bog standard netplay options and hope to see more like it in the future

All the bugs, taking forever to match up with someone, people dodging bad matchups, etc.   There was a lot of bs to navigate when I can just select ranked/casual in other games and get matches fast and easy.  

 

Also, it may not matter to some people but I enjoy ranking up and earning a new title.  

[Skort]

Regardless of what they do with the lobby i hope they add different point / ranking system per character. I would like to play my alts at the level they are at and slowly rank them up,rather than tossing me in the same matchmaking pool as my main.

Yeah, this is something I've wanted in SFV for a long time.  The current system discourages picking up new characters.

I like to use ranked as a quick match and trying to get matches going in Stride's tower was a slog. I did more waiting than playing. I also hate how a set can be interrupted by ranking up or ranking down. Can I finish this 2 out of 3 before I get kicked from heaven?

Maybe its because I play Gio or because IDAGF who I play against (unless its HC, that's just a whole state of mind to fight him), but don't think I've had much dodging to deal with in general. Think the biggest issue with it is the connections issues when getting up to the cabinet. If they fixed that, you sort of get to roll up to a local every time you get in the tower. Turn on the system, get to the floor, people I recognize are there, can run multilple sets with the same person if I want to.

 

Makes it way better to learn match ups and/or for the general community feel of it. I've met up with surprising amount of people through PMs because of the tower system. Unlike SF4/SF5 ranked which was basically only good for hatemail.

Nope, go back to floor 7.

Unless you just plane suck at fighting games it's uncontested.

Let's be real, they only said that because of how good it looks.

 

Game doesn't have enough content to hold a candle to BT3 or XV2 and y'all play enough FGs to know it's wack on that front too.

That is actually one of the few things I missed about Street Fighter IV. I agree, that setup needs to come back.

Ok, the fact Budokai 3 is above Burst Limit, BT 3 & XV2 are above the LoG series, and Supersonic Warriors is even in the top 10 makes this list suspect.
