No, it won't, when they re-released 3rd Strike, they used the original version everyone loves instead of 3rd Strike 2.0 which everyone hated.

Are you talking about the Dreamcast only version? Nobody outside of hardcore nerds touched 3rd strike on console until the PS2 anniversary re-release, when the whole SF3 series finally made a profit. And I say this as someone who owned both Double Impact and 3rd Strike for DC.

no the arcade version that was rejected by the community at large. removed urien unblockables and more.

remember when communities rejected poo poo games in favor of older better versions? seems like so long ago.... similar poo poo happened with xvsf version 3.0 and vsav 2 and a few other games... and ssf2 (not turbo)

I thought that was the DC version, and you could only fix it with the dipswitch menu.

It didn't even seem that long ago when people actively hated DLC/Microtransactions. Even that has been changing.

We're not far off from FPS's allowing players who run out of ammo mid-play to buy a full magazine for real money right on the spot.

DLC is going to go the way of the dinosaur in a few years though, the new hotness is just putting a slot machine in your game ala the Valve loot box.

But Urien's unblockables were gone in the last CPS3 version anyway (including the crash bug).

Do people not just bootleg/pheonix the boards for version. B?

I have not seen a single version A cabinet in my scene.

They didn't like version B because it removed unblockables and made Urien (and Oro) a much less interesting and viable character.

And they're right.

Like if you're playing 3s version B you're not really playing 3s if anybody ever picks Urien or Oro.

either you're horribly misinformed about your scene or your scene wasted a ton of money on the version so unpopular capcom dropped support for it a decade ago

normally unintentional unblockables are terrible and dumb but in 3rd strike they're just a mixup on two mid tier characters

Or maybe that's why they picked that version but I dunno, there are two Ver. As compared to 20 Ver.Bs.

Then again, all these boards are pheonix boards because gently caress suicide batteries.

I only mess with the boards and I'm not a 3rd Strike player so I dunno if I care much about that, but I see people play Urien without unblocables and just doing 50/50s anyway. Also, no one plays Oro (not as far as I've seen), so maybe it's not a huge loss to them.

Are they testing the waters for future DLC chars?

Is it an art test?

on a side note the 3s online ost is way better than ppl give it credit for because basically all it did wrong was ruin the best song. that said i dunno WHY they remixed the ost when it was so good before.
