Cartoon Man posted:Arms looks really good for those who enjoy fighting games. I do not, so I will pass for now unless it has a really good single player mode with fun AI. It's about as much a fighting game as some kind of mobile exo suit 2 player death match. It is and it isn't.

Real hurthling! posted:you can start in any fighting game just knowing a 2-3 button combo that leads to a knock down and then guessing what they are going to do when they get up. like even in guilty gear with 15 hit combos on the regular you can just choose a character with a lot of life and high damage output and still beat your friends 2-3 hits at a time if you are just outplaying them. then as you get comfortable you build from there until you are good. its like anything else. its called depth and it feels good to grow instead of being scared. Yeah but you still need to at some point start memorizing combos and that's not fun to a lot of people Racing games have a lot of depth and have room to grow and I don't play them because I don't like racing games

Real hurthling! posted:every online game from EA, Activision, and Ubi get a free beta weekend nowadays He's complaining its not a demo instead of a beta weekend, so that's not really much different. Still screwed if you're out of town that weekend. But having it open the whole weekend instead of just a couple 1-hour windows would be a slight step up I guess. Very very few people do actual demos these days. Nintendo 3DS is the only platform I can think of that has demos in 2017. Oh, and PSVR. Steam has a few demos but most games on steam don't have them.

help me out switch people should I buy ARMS, or Injustice 2 for my Xbox One? I essentially can't use online (unless I were to take my Switch elsewhere which I can't do with my Xbox) because my internet sucks a real gently caress, so I'd basically be playing single player. I really like fighting games and I know I like Netherrealm games for sure, and the gear stuff in IJ2 looks like a lot of fun, but also I like Nintendo games.

usf2 is overpriced and the controls aren't great in handheld mode (you're basically stuck playing shotos and 360 characters like zangief) but like everything else, it owns being able to get in some online games while i'm watching some loving horrible home and garden tv poo poo with my fiancee and being able to play arcade mode on the train everything is better on switch basically. they should make a fighter edition left joycon with a good d-pad those are my feelings on usf2 thank you

Holding down back on the separated D-Pad buttons seems like it could be rough, much less doing any charge super. I haven't tried it myself though.

Crosspost from the ARMs thread: Play Warm-up mode outside of testpunch hours. You can do it if you beat the tutorial level during a test punch. Go to your network settings, turn on "Proxy" and set some random number. When you try to join a lobby, it'll stall out for a couple minutes and you can play in the warmup. When you get an error, just retry and play again. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KqD-poT7d1w

The Splatoon2 and ARMS demo things couldn't be live all the time and require 1 hour slices because otherwise you'd have a hard time finding other people. It's for the community to align itself on high traffic hours. It's less if a problem with the full games because there's more stuff there to keep interest. The demoes are bare bones.

I think that the root of "this game isn't a fighting game" arguments is that "fighting game" is a bad and non-descriptive name for what a lot of people to consider a pretty specifically defined genre. It needs to have a contrived name along the lines of "castleroid" or "shmup" that people use to make sure we don't mix up Doom II with DonPachi by calling them shooters.

All I have left, AFAIK, is a few completion marks with The Lost and Keeper, and a few of the bullshit challenges I have no intention of ever doing (Speed, Ultra Hard, Brains.)

I worked on a game that was competitive, multiplayer-only, and it too relied entirely on its community to stay alive; We had to do exactly the same thing. You don't know how many people you'll attract for your demo, and you certainly don't know if there's enough in there to keep them interested enough in your barebones product until the full thing comes out. If people aren't playing the demo, you get people trying it out and getting empty lobbies. The game looks dead on arrival and people don't buy the final game.
