I remember everyone getting pissed off when it was found the two MvC3 dlc characters, Jill and Shuma where already included on the disc. Oh what an innocent time, they didn't even release any DLC characters for ultimate it pissed people off so much.

I don't really see an issue with autocombos as long as they aren't optimal (hello p4u teddie). and smash controls are fine as long as its like Xrd Stylish mode

You have ZERO clue on how big the game's budget is, and keep insisting its small, even though it has the backing of one of the biggest properties in entertainment on board with this, and they are using this game specifically as a vehicle for their movie endeavors. You think its a coincidence that Thor & Hulk are getting outfits that coincide with the gladiator fight in Thor Ragnarok? You think Rocket Racoon getting redesigned to look like his GOTG design is coincidence?

One of the first things they have been discussing for this game is how fully featured its going to be as a direct response to how barebones SFV launched. Sure, the game doesn't look as good as Tekken 7 or Injustice 2; its also doing a bunch of stuff that those games aren't doing on a technical level, that if they did do, would result in those games looking 'downgraded' in order to be feasible.

Honestly, reading this thread just makes me wonder why I even make games in the first place.

"doing a bunch of stuff other games can't on a technical level" lol what.
I'd love to be wrong, I really would, but man the series has not been historically chockful of features. if the roster is huge then I'm fine with that but with how SFV's model went, who knows.

i guess that depends what you mean by "work well". someone here posted that they set up a console with Xrd (in Stylish mode) and two sticks for some non-FG nerd thing a while back and people had a blast with it since they could right then and there start doing the moves with the main character, Sol Badguy

I stopped going to NeoGaf for serious fighting game discussion, when the community there had the consensus that Street Fighter V is a great game, and the only reason people don't like it is because the game is "hard to get into" and "difficult to learn" compared to other Street Fighters.

How does that work with Thanos, he is a Silver Surfer character which makes him a fantastic four character as well by the transitive property.

Both KI's Combo Assist and Xrd's Stylish mode are really really good. They don't change your controls, all the normal inputs still work and then there are shortcuts and auto-combos layered on top of that. They work like training wheels: when you first start out you can lean on them as much as you want, as you get familiar with things you use them less and less, and once you no longer need them you take them off to gain flexibility. They smooth out that curve between mashing buttons and deliberately playing, and that's a great thing.

The game is free, but you have to put a physical quarter into your computer every time you play multiplayer. A Capcom employee comes by to collect half the quarters every so often.

The fox movie/IP deal specifies the Fantastic Four, Silver Surfer and Galactus. I haven't read anything specifically mentioning Super Skrull, but it makes sense he'd be unavailable.

Thanos has cinematically only been in MCU stuff, so he's fair game for Marvel and the Mouse to do whatever they want with him.

I find it hard to believe Capcom would make the mistake of taking out inputs altogether, as garbage as they've been. Autocombos I could see, if they're P4A-style, but is that TERRIBLE anyways?

I also don't get the character complaints because who the gently caress were you expecting? Of course there's gonna be repeats, there's always repeats, plus Marvel wants to push the MCU. We were always gonna get the Avengers, and it only makes sense to lead with them in your trailers, they're the guys selling copies.

I'm really iffy about the game regardless. It releases in September, we have eight characters announced with a whopping SIX DLC dudes on top of it, no gameplay footage or loctests/betas announced...it's rough. Unless from now on there's a deluge of information, I can't help but feel like Capcom is releasing another SFV - which, regardless of how you might feel about its core gameplay, was put out on a beta state and still doesn't feel like a "complete" game a year after launch.

It is. A lot of players there act like "experts" but when you play against them they are scrubs of scrubs.

In there defense, most people in the FGC are bad. Playing random player on Facebook communities is painful for example.

Pretty sure he's bemoaning the fact that the culture of fighting games has shifted focus more towards online play and discussion, leaving behind the arcade setting.

If he was just complaining about lag then he would be happy that the console version will finally allow people to play offline locally without any lag.
