purbeast Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Anyone in here using a 6gawd layout for their controller? I am contemplating switching up my button layout because I went with a custom one that is what I've been using all along for SF4, which is basically an American style layout that is like Viewlix without the offset, and the buttons are spaced out more. I use the bottom left button with my right thumb for DI in this game. However since my buttons are kind of spaced out farther, I am finding myself having to move my hand a bit more and am late by MS sometimes to react, or I've even missed a button completely since it's far apart. I am using 30mm buttons and I've played on a controller with 24mm buttons but they felt small to me. But now I'm curious about possibly going to the 6gawd layout which uses smaller buttons and I'm curious if anyone here uses it and how they like it. Quote Link to comment

I'm not sure about the layout but 6gawd is a hilarious name. I have a macro on stick for DI and have to move my pinky to hit the button. Feels like I'm a fraction slow sometimes. I think pad is actually the best controller for DI reactions since they always have a finger on the trigger button. Darc_Requiem 1 Quote Link to comment

I'm specifically wondering about the leverless layout, because the right thumb button is bottom right compared to the joystick version. Quote Link to comment

Tbh i have hard time imagine Rog being anything but super bitter sore loser talking about Dudley... specially considering during SF3 Dudley was covered of gold while Rog was an has been getting beated at vintage mma tournaments Would talk trash about Dudley even 10 years after getting his shit beated up Maybe if Dudley die first, watching his grave and after bunch of insults Rog would tell something like "...but you could fight, i give you that" If nobody is there to listen, of course 😆 Wich lead us to Murata being a god Literally ONLY thing that ruined my 99% happiness at Ed becoming pure boxing char, is that i fear Dudley may see his chances to sneak in lowered by dev team feeling they did the boxing thing already Maybe if he was still very hybrid with kicks and shit they would be more encouraged to make Dudely return Even if considering SF6 urban style and Ed in, is possible Rog would have been picked over Dudley again 🤔 Pair of Rooks 1 Quote Link to comment

I thought the smaller buttons were weird at first because I was so used to the Sanwa buttons on my HRAP3SA, but now I love them as I usually play an SNK style 4-across layout and I don't have to stretchy hand at all to be able to keep a finger on each button. Unless you have really big hands, I highly recommend the smaller buttons. HeavensCloud 1 Quote Link to comment

Unless you have really big hands, I highly recommend the smaller buttons. I've tried the smaller buttons before for like 2 months before I put my own layout together with 30mm buttons. I like my buttons and size but it's more the layout where I find myself moving my hand too much sometimes and those missed milliseconds cost me like missing a reaction DI or something. That's partially why I'm looking at the 6gawd layout because it's designed with your thumb sitting over a button in mind. My buddy is going to send me a bunch of buttons though so I'm going to make cardboard cutouts on USPS boxes with actual buttons on them in the different layouts I wanna try out and if I like one more just from feel, I'm going to order a panel for my controller in that style panel and replace my current one. I still love my current one don't get me wrong, but I honestly think it is holding me back slightly due to just missing stuff sometimes. DoctaMario 1 Quote Link to comment
Pair of Rooks Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 For SF4 I modified a bought stick, drilling new button holes to lie underneath my fingers. My thumb commanded 2 buttons without moving, one the tip and one the last knuckle. ngl it was pretty damn cool to be able to instantly press any of the six buttons or any combination instantly.

I understand that people didn't like the disconnect between how he looked in the story VS how he looked as a playable character. But I always thought Ed was cool and I think his over all game plan was fun to watch especially at the tournament level. So fuck it. I'm gonna use Ed. I'm playing the character just to piss people off. I'm now and AKI/Ed main. I don't care if he ends up being ass tier I'm gonna annoy you fuckers online!!!!!!!!!! Nah I like the way SF6 Ed looks but I stand on him being a shit SFV newcomer. Terrible looking generic shadaloo getup with some boxing gloves slapped on combined with unoriginal “white/blond spare Bison body #10037” background. Literally could not put less effort into his design. Other than 123 being slightly annoying I was never bothered by the way he played. Snatcher and his VT1 are cool, and I liked the simplified inputs experiment. Edited February 10 by Vhozite -PVL93- 1 Quote Link to comment
Jocelot Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 Ed's SF6 theme seems really cool from the small amount we heard too. German rap is a nice choice. Might end up as my new favorite when the full theme drops. Really looking forward to seeing more from this character, I hope he's playable or something at Capcom Cup next week Quote Link to comment

BornWinner Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 Honestly believe they had planned the Ed trailer for Capcom Cup, but had no faith people would be excited for him so they put it out earlier than they wanted to.

TWINBLADES Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 I think it's fair to say Capcom lost the plot on post launch support. We can all concoct crazy narratives on why but the truth is that their priorities aren't in keeping the player base happy with constant dopamine hits. And they don't really have too. SFV was in defense mode so they had to keep a steady pace because if not the game would have floundered financially. But SF6 sold extremely well and got fighting game of the year. Capcom knowns they don't have to do shit. It sucks. I like the hype of trailers and reveals. But odds are likely they'll release some dev video about Akuma/Season 2 around June/July.

Not July Akuma is Spring 2024, wich is 20 March to 20 June So at worst Akuma teaser at June begin, trailer some days after and release before 20th Not even necessary so late, example Ed release almost a moth before the end of Winter 2024 My guess is Akuma may be released on late May/early June But does'nt help me much if i think i can't give less fucks about Akuma as char lol, so after i get Ed next interesting thing is Season 2 begin in August/September 🥲 Quote Link to comment

-PVL93- Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 Capcom really don't want people to watch capcup The event itself is spread over like 10 days, LCQ is taking an entire weekend for some reason, the main bracket itself kicks off on a WEDNESDAY when every single major event is usually during the weekend, and to top it all off there's no announcement or a reveal taking place, apparently not even for the season 2 patch But hey million dollars amirite Quote Link to comment

Don't feel bad for any of these cunts crying about the fact that they get to play for a Million dollars at all. That group of death is going to be one of the best publicity events that could've happen to the game. Because everybody has to remember: this shit is goofy advertising and we damn well all existed in a world where the Capcom Cup wasn't around at all. we could easily go back to that. No perspective having asses. FGC top players continue being wack. Quote Link to comment
Pair of Rooks Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 I'm perfectly fine on returning to a world without Capcom Cup, or the other dev-specific events. We have Evo, two in fact. I don't feel the dev-specific events add much, especially when they're done like that. HeavensCloud 1 Quote Link to comment
-PVL93- Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 You guys are forgetting that while esports objectively hurts FGC events, if it collapses as a now integral part of the genre - it completely kills international competition even at majors. Nobody is going to spend thousands of dollars to travel across the Atlantic ocean for 2-3 days to come out with nothing and only lose out while not being compensated by the sponsor. If anything it will force a transition to where most fighting game tournaments will become unviable to support and the genre completely transitions into online outside of REALLY big events like EVO, CEO, UFA, Combo Breaker. And online tournaments fucking suck TWINBLADES 1 Quote Link to comment

International players aren't travelling and like you said it's probably a combination of travel expenses plus the shift to online tournaments. This is pretty much ass for the spectators because online tournaments aren't at all fun to watch. And then we end up with situations like this where nobody even knows half the players in Capcom Cup this year and they're playing for the biggest prize ever. Shit just seems whack to me. It's to the point now where I'm only watching what Evo and Red Bull Kumite? And the latter isn't even a CPT event. What happened to CEO, Combo Breaker, Stun fest, NorCal Regionals, Canada Cup etc. SF6 is a great product and it's a shame there aren't enough big offline events to showcase it.

purbeast Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 I mocked up some USPS Priority Mail Hitbox's to see if I like the 6gawd layout. I think I am going to go with the 24mm layout. The way my hand rests and have access to all 8 buttons without having to move my hand at all seems like it will make reacting to DI's and stuff ever so slightly quicker, which can be the difference between eating a DI or not in this game. The 30mm layout feels good too, but I either have to stretch my pink to hit the right button or my thumb to get the right thumb button. I am just so used to 30mm buttons for attack but the 24mm version of this just fits like a glove. I just wish I had some spare guts so I could wire this up. I don't feel like gutting my main stick right now just to play with this layout. AriesWarlock, Pair of Rooks, HeavensCloud and 4 others 5 2 Quote Link to comment
