Then I'll be ordering my converter right now, thanks! I'm a little weary these days because I remember Lizard Lick fell apart overnight a while back. Still not sure what happened but I used to order from them.

Got Karin Cammy Rashid, all of those characters seem very uninteresting to me.

SectumSempra posted:Would you say fang is fun? Eh. His poison isn't very scary, his weird command not-roll gets hit by throws or attacks (except ex) including weird midscreen birdie command throw stuff. His damage is fairly low, but he has some ok pokes. I feel like his crossup game is kinda weak because of how his forward jump hk works. He's fun enough to play, but kinda meh. Plus I hate his super being visually sodumb. The real way to decide if you can be F.A.N.G. is ask yourself this: How do you feel about the number two?

I tried like 4-5 times deliberately to get birdie in that quiz and couldn't do it. I figured picking defensive/grappling, demanding good normals, and wanting easy combos and mid-range would be a pretty obvious flag for him but I guess not

cams posted:well i picked up necalli who i actually think is real real good, but i guess most people don't see it that way. also fang cause i do miss charge characters. the real reason i wanted to play laura is that i've never really played a character that relies on setups to the degree that she does, and i wanted to force myself to work with that. learned some stuff, will keep playing her cause i like her kit. her bad matchups are just real, real bad. Necalli is super good, but you need to play a bit fearlessly to get in with his shorter-than-average normals and take advantage of the ridiculous damage he does.

Quiz gave me Cammy. After exclusively playing with Chun since betas/launch, I've been playing Cammy for maybe a week or so now and she's starting to grow on me

SectumSempra posted:this game feels eerily over simplistic if you catch my drift? If you mean what I think you mean, you expressed it well. I feel like the scope of meaningful possibilities in the game has a near-constant air of developer intent to it - not because they fine-tuned everything to fit their vision perfectly, but because they disabled a lot of tech they felt they couldn't fine-tune. While its modest pace and low damage make the game rather forgiving, the flow of a match still has a deterministic smell, since the correct direction to take at any given point has a tendency to present itself readily to the player. The game is a lot of fun to play, IMO, but at this point high-level matches are less entertaining to watch than in Street Fighter IV. Maybe it'll feel less shallow once more content appears.

What do you guys think the player base is going to be like? I know that sales weren't outstanding but do you think the different additions will pick things back up? Do we know how the active population compares to its competitors? I've still got so much to learn and I don't want all the other casuals to abandon the game too early.

Even without Street Fighter's popularity the cross platform play will give it a huge advantage over other games wrt player pool size

Booyah- posted:Art direction for Alex is real bad Pomp posted:alex looks good until you get to the hair While not thrilled, I can take everything below the neck. That face though, that hair, how the draping hairlocks are tucked under the headband rather than over - isn't that his signature style?! The Mc'D french fry comparison is too drat strong. What are the chances this game/character models will get a sort of graphical overhaul at some point? And I'll still main him regardless. I can forgive everything if his alt is the bomber jacket.

But there are so few assets in the game... And the engine looks to be the same as sf4... Development costs could have been really low.

You can't transfer the SF4 models to SF5 and doll them up, a lot has to be changed and at that point they're better off working from scratch Not that the models would look good anyways

2 million seems kind of crazy, looking at these numbers for lifetime sales: http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2016/jan/29/capcom-expects-street-fighter-5-sell-2-million-copies/ I think the only way they were ever getting that is with some freemium hats/crate-based mobile aids business plan
