As someone who played SFxT too much the game is it's own brand of poo poo but some people really had fun with it so more power to them :shrug: I think scramble mode was fun and the 2 player mode for one team was pretty cool but that's about it.

Also, as much flak as SF5 gets (deservedly so), it's miles ahead of SFxT. There's this "honest" and "footsies-based" gameplay meme because some characters had incredibly safe, hitconfirmable pokes that convert into too much damage and oki. The reality is the footsies in that game at a high level are pretty fake; it's more about throwing hitboxes around that are safer/more rewarding than your opponent's and it gets tiring pretty quick to work around that even if you have similar tools.

I know this is sarcastic but GG definitely makes it work thanks to a wealth of options for movement, defense as well as bursts

i love gg! it's a lot of fun! i'd probably play it more if the local scene around here played it, but alas, i play sf5 (not as begrudgingly as some of the other posters here) because it has a lively scene.

and what you say is true, yes.

I've seen people refer to her as B tier but I don't know how accurate that is.

anytime you kd someone in sf5 it's almost always going to be a 50/50 situation for the person waking up

that's why you get those throw loop situations (because you guessed wrong)

mika (RIP) could make it even more stacked because her options could cover multiple wake up options, especially in the corner

so it's reminiscent of sf4 vortex

Is this different from overhead/low because overheads are generally reactable?

One of the things that put me off this game is that meaties can't be eyeballed because nothing has active frames. Took a look at Juri's meaty setup list and :yikes:

SF5 is too vanilla right now. That's my biggest complaint. Was honestly hoping for an additional super/additional v-trigger for the whole cast. Although I suppose that's a lot more work than farming out a new character to a random freelancer every couple of months. But that's what worries me about SF5: it's never going to have a "super" whatever, which means the developers will have less time to make big changes.

If true input delay now less than sf4(sf4 was 5f). Although i'd wait on patch notes before saying its gospel.

does input lag even matter at this point? i didnt find the game to be more fun when i turned off vsync on pc and apparently got back 3 frames.

It won't magically make the game good, but vsync off definitelly feels way better.

If you haven't been playing sfv on pc with vsync off and a gsync/freesync monitor to avoid tearing you're a scrub.

SRK put up an article yesterday titled "UltraDavid and Vicious Give Capcom Stern Criticism Leading Up to Season 2, Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite", but I guess somebody didn't' like that because it's been taken down. Google has a cached version here. It's really just a couple of paragraphs summarizing an interview with Yahoo eSports. Ultra David goes out of his way to stress how much he likes the gameplay, even though he hates everything about the game.

Yeah even gameplay aside, so much of the presentation is amateur hour. I feel like the threads mostly moved on to talking about gameplay issues, but as someone who just picked the game up on sale last month I'm just discovering all these things first hand. Little things that don't seem like a big deal, but make you go "why the gently caress isn't this an option." Stuff like no rebinding keys on PC, no directinput support. I was at a buddies house playing the game with him for the first time and was like "oh, you should check out Rashid's theme, it's the signature music to come out of the game so far" and then discovered that there's no option to select background music in versus, despite it being an option online. So with the game literally in front of us I queued it up on youtube.

I dunno if this counts as nostalgia but strekken 2013 is genuinely better than sf5 because it has a niche.

sf5 is just a bad street fighter game with lots of blatantly terrible decisions and a lack of polish in basically every aspect.

strekken is a bad street fighter game with lots of blatantly terrible decisions and a lack of polish in basically every aspect. but you also have tekken characters, tekken juggles, 2v2 mode and funny meme dialogue like gief fighting a bear.

what I'm saying is that strekken has solid-if-stupid reasons that you'd play it over literally any other fighting game besides "it's the newest game with SF in the title", sf5 doesn't.

SfxT is more fun in training mode and has way way more content than sfv. The only place sfv supposedly improves on is netcode (a lie, given the lag and horrible implementation) and how tolerable competitive play is, and im starting to think v2013 has more legs than current sfv.
