So on the youtube Street Fighter channel, they have these character guides and I decided to watch their Zangief: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aOW3tHuJj6c

In it, they say that you can land a crush counter with Gief's crouching fierce, but you can't get a crush counter with it, like at all. I have no idea how they let that get through to the video.

Imma guess that it was possible in a previous build of the game which was what they had to work with.

Do runbacks affect ranked points at all or does it just mean you get rematched with the same player?

Capcom have made a lot of huge IP gently caress ups over the last few years. Almost every new IP they have tried has failed and they have managed to kill off many well known and popular IPs.

At this point Capcom have 3 main titles, Resident Evil, Street Fighter and Monster Hunter and while they pull in a decent chunk of cash they aren't enough to support a company of Capcoms size. While Konami was a demise through not caring, Capcoms was over ambition which has now turned to trying to limp through with spending as little as possible.

Seriously, Capcom has the 2nd best collection of video game IPs after Nintendo. Street Fighter, Resident Evil, Mega Man, Ace Attorney, Darkstalkers, Devil May Cry, Final Fight, Ghosts n' Goblins, Strider, Viewtiful Joe, Monster Hunter, Dead Rising, Bionic Commando, 1942...

It kills me how they continuously gently caress these up and kill them all. People give Capcom a hard time because they were arguably the best 3rd party game developer in the 90's. Street Fighter and Resident Evil literally defined their genres. It kills people because Capcom today is not Capcom from 1996.

Capcom, I want to give you my money but you're making it hard.

Same here... this thread is legitimately starting to bum me out. I want this game to succeed and I really want to love this game, but there's just so much about it that just can't be defended. lovely online, 8f delay, it's a $60 paid beta, survival mode is a horrible tedious chore, story mode is the laziest thing I've seen in a AAA title in a long time, Capcom can't be arsed to release an Alex trailer for FR \ NCR, the money store isn't even working, the hitboxes and frame data are really bizarre, no proper arcade mode\story for casuals and thus sales, hideous character models with plastic hair... it's just really, really shameful and embarrassing.

What makes it painful is there's legitimately cool things in here too and if done right, this game would have the potential to be great. But it probably needed another 6 months of development before being shoved out the door. Capcom's senior management is pants on head retarded and I pity anyone working tirelessly day and night to make this game somewhat presentable.

You can win and lose points in runbacks. It's just like playing another match.

Don't get me wrong, I still have a lot of fun and I don't regret buying the game. I wish things were better but I'm also fortunate in that I have a local scene to play with so a lot of my problems are gone when I see everyone on Mondays. Costumes suck but that's just how it is. Half of this game (and fighters in general) are the community for me, which I'm getting to do a ton with locally. I'm having a great time, despite the jokes and the complaining I do when I get a bit salty.

Same. And even a broken game can be fun when you're playing it with friends and having a good time. I go to the arcade almost every Saturday and it's something different to do that isn't USF4 which everyone is dreadfully bored of at this point.

Of course, if I didn't have a good local scene and I just played fightcade and never left the house, I probably wouldn't bother with this much. Then again, if I was a hermit, I probably wouldn't play fighting games at all

Yeah. Fighting game discussion is typically really negative, SA is typically super negative, and throw them together and this thread puts all the bitching on SRK to shame.

I wish something like that existed for the PS4 version. Either they made Survival harder across the board or I just don't remember it very well.

Either way, still won't be playing it for colors. Because gently caress that noise. Why they think anyone wants to repeatedly play multiple difficulties of Survival to unlock colors on a per-costume basis is beyond me.

Bad stuff about SFV:

-Some really bad character designs (or at least poorly realized in-game)
-V-sync issue
-Minimum imput lag bullshit
-Poor PR w/r/t explaining issues
-Didn't launch with several features expected for the price tag and/or found in previous titles

Good stuff:

-Fairly good character balance; the low tier isn't too low and the high tier isn't too high
-Long-term tournament support
-MOBA-style system for acquiring new characters and costumes (for better or worse)
-Built to encourage newer players to hop in (imput lenience helps, though the challenges could be better)
-Some good PR w/r/t making DLC characters free; didn't launch money store in a non-working state just to launch it

There are others that I'm probably forgetting on either side, but yeah the game is a bit of a mixed bag right now. I think it will end up being very solid, but I wouldn't begrudge anyone for dropping it in the meantime.
