edit: oh wow, Vega couldn't tech meaty throws while crouching before this patch. THAT EXPLAINS SO MUCH

That's not what the bug was and I doubt it had too much effect on Vega players teching throws. When teching you want to aim to tech at the end of the window so you're blocking for as long as possible. It only really affected his ability to do reversal throw while crouching, where there's no reason to crouch really.

Still bad, but some quirky buffer poo poo was liable to pop up eventually since the Special Move Buffering thing exposed the absolutely terribly janky buffer system.

I've gone from the original SF games -> Tekken Tag -> DoA -> SF4 (and a tiny bit of Skullgirls) -> SF5. Obviously with a lot of time gaps in between.

I think I like SFV because the footsies part feel really good to me, where there are ways to punish people who are relying on one particular strategy, and adapting what you are doing over a three game set feels like it is rewarded. The characters are different enough to adapt your play around them but most aren't so different where it feels reliant on being gimmicky (if that makes sense). In Super Bronze I can find a game like every 30 seconds and after the patch it is usually against people around my skill and the fights are usually pretty fun.

Everything surrounding the game is a stupid pile of poo poo but I find myself matchmaking for hours on end because I am having fun. Maybe that means I'm an idiot.

Having fun with sfv doesn't mean you are an idiot, it makes plenty of sense if you've only played the above games. The thing is there are lots of other games that offer the things you like (kof 98989898) but that you haven't played much of.

Imo the best thing about sfv is that you can get match making with randos pretty quickly, but if you want to expand a bit you can play other games with goons in this thread. I'm not great at any of the fightcade games, but i am willing to play/learn. If you try them you might find you like them better than sfv. GG rev also has plenty of goons who will play you.

6p in gg is fine because you can use dozens of options to alter your timing/positioning in the air depending on your character, including a universal double jump.

GOTTA HAVE THAT PAX BISONICA
whiffing a 6p in GG can get you killed (some char's 6p's are even unsafe on block!!!)

whiffing a jab in sf5 is p. safe most of the time and you can rapid fire that poo poo to smack people out of the air into a reset

it's also kind of whack that most char's best AA options are literally standing LP or LK

I can't reliably time an input to hit late in a three frame window, and I still sometimes try to tech throws while crouching.

Yeah, go ahead and say git gud, but i'm pretty sure I've eaten quite a few throws because a cr. jab came out instead of a throw attempt.

I don't know where you get three frame window from. On wakeup and coming out of blockstun you have 2 frames of throw protection. A real meaty or tick throw will hit on the third frame you get up or come out of blockstun. You then have something like 7 frames to tech the throw. So that gives you like a 10 frame window to input a tech to tech a meaty throw without triggering the bug.

srsly who wants to play this lamer?
I've always thought that costumes and stages are by far the best money makers. The only issue is the sheer size that they occupy on disk. I was thinking something like the CS:GO marketplace for gun skins, because if people are willing to spend big bux on a reskin of a tiny gun then there should also be a market for modders making costumes and Capcom getting a cut of the profits if they release them, but the file sizes are probably just way too big to be making dozens of skins per character.

Bit scummy to be selling colours. I remember you would be unlocking them in USF4 every time you played with each character. Guess all the colours on my second CFN account are going to be reset in the future. RIP in peas, bling-bling barlog. :(
