Bi-Han now we've got Bad Blood

Meridian posted:

I think I finally found a character I halfway enjoy in this game. I was really frustrated with how Ryu doesn't feel like Ryu from SFIV, but at the same time having him be my best character. I have finally embraced M. Beerson. Getting drunk, pushing lots of buttons and being plus on everything is pretty good.

Bison was fun when i played, his ex fireball had somewhat fun space control if it didn't change,

also the HP command normal was stupid good if that hasn't changed.

It was weird no having a psycho crusher but his new moves were interesting enough.

he actually had so many ways to do things that it was weird that other characters didn't. It felt apparent him and birdie were done before the later members of the cast like alex juri etc.

A shitty post? This calls for a dance of deduction.
I find it hilarious that despite Capcom and Sony going hard on E-League promotion, Street Fighter V has sold less than 100,000 units worldwide this year.

anime was right posted:

capcom didnt know what kind of game they were committing to making.

I wouldn't say that completely. The game seemed to be heavy focused in rushdown close combat gameplay. Laura seems to be the poster character of what the characters movesets were suppose to be like. But it seems that they didn't commit to the vision to keep it "Street Fighter". So now you have a game that's based all on pokes and neutered attacks.

Is sfv good now?

I've seen Colin play. and she seems, not worth coming back to the game for but ok.

And I see no other character has come out yet for season 2 and evo's 3 months off sooo...

Honestly any problems you had with the core gameplay probably weren't fixed or were possibly exacerbated in some cases. The new patch isn't really adding many exciting changes (for instance, players had questioned if Akuma's reward was worth his high risk, so the only change Capcom made was giving him 25 health)

There's also generally a case that if something is cool or powerful, it's made to be brought to the level of everything else instead of the other way around, which is pretty bad in a game where almost everyone feels like the weakest version of themselves.

they sold less of a game that was more expensive to produce and was only done so because they got outside money

given that situation, i am going to go ahead and say they are making enough money to justify the DLC and little else.

Sony footed the bill and they produced a nothing of a game that is carried by brand name and 12 dollars a week of dlc outfits some character designer made a year ago for nothing. Possibly an intern. SFV is a scam top to bottom.

It's amusing because if Capcom actually put forth some effort, the game would have sold multiple times more.

It took one day of playing tekken 7 to convince the last of my fighting game group to finally abandon sfv for the turd that it is.

Someone should make a post for that game, because I'm too lazy.

I was going to buy Juri's new costume cause it looked cool but after reading this, I don't want to be part of the problem.

I wish my favourite characters were in other games.

Honest answer. I bought all cause I like to fight against characters using sometimes costumes that match each other, for example, whenever I use Cammy battle costume and I fight Kolin I use her battle costume (VS CPU mode), whenever I use Chun with her swimsuit on the beach stage and pick one of the other girls also on her swimsuit, whenever I use a halloween costume I use spooky arena and fight another character with their halloween costumes. You get the idea.

Also, while playing Cinematic Story mode, I like to set different costumes that I judge more cool for them to be wearing in story mode. For example I like to use Cammy story costume for her which looks a bit more formal for her mission, and Chun Li is also as a cop, Bison wear his battle costume which looks more cool than his regular. I like to have fun changing how the character look.

I'm picking this up again because I miss playing Gief and I heard he got better. I want a secondary character and Guile and Urien look the coolest while beating on people (the only important measure for any character), but my cursory searching suggests they might be kinda tier-whorey, but maybe that's not a bad thing for a secondary? Also say what you will about this game, but nothing feels better than SPD'ing a fool, standing over him as he wakes up, and catching his jump away with an air SPD.

Playing a top tier is not a bad thing.

Urien and Guile probably won't be top tier after the 2.1 patch though (coming in a couple months)

Well SF4 was the first FG i played for more than a few hours, and I picked Sagat because I thought he looked cool, turns out he was the king dick of the whole game at the time so everybody online was wise to everything I could do and that was frustrating, so I've shied away from top tiers because of that. Though this game is much simpler and there's not a lot of wacky stuff in the game anyhow so I doubt people knowing my character will be a very big deal, so I guess not caring about it is the way to go. Also I seem to be getting matches faster than when the game launched? Did capcom actually make a positive change?

Are you a decent judge of what qualifies as a horizontally angles kick attack?
