The disconnect bug is really terrible, over half of my matches don't get completed. Sometimes it happens even though we finished the last round.

SnakeEyez is the only Known Person I've fought that I've lost to, but his ping was going from like 70 to 150. The third match we played got disconnected when I was a game up, too.

When I started playing, the first four or five games I won, I got disconnected before game 2. Every time I lost though, the game was perfectly cool with finishing the set.

Is SnakeEyez playing Talos


Otherwise, yeah, I agree. The disconnect bug is irritating, also it doesn't let me know when someone DCd because they can't handle the Chel. :smug:

I slipped in an hour of matches earlier today. Edge is really fun to just hit buttons on, but the more I delved into being series with the game the less I enjoyed it. I'm not quite sure why. Felt kind of like a flash game, and the only combo I figured out how to do did not feel very rewarding due to the ease in which I was doing it. Maybe I'm just being biased or picky, or just agitated playing on keyboard/with a painful headset for a mic. I gotta get my downstairs mic ready next time.

I didn't know Chel could link cr.M from her F+H, cool.

I don't think Chel has any useful links, everything starts from f+H which is way too slow to be useful. She has like no way of opening people up once she gets in. Maybe I'm just playing her wrong. I mean I win most of the time, but she feels really lovely.

I'm trying really hard to like this game but the more I play it the more I dislike it. Not having specials on deck whenever I need them is frustrating. It's really slow, the footsies game feels bad, idk besides the f2p moba aspects i'm not sure what this game is supposed to bring to the table mechanically.

f+H is good as a pressure tool, you can either link cr.M to it and do 300+ damage or go into f+M, hit overhead and get slightly less damage, or cr.M xx fireball to make it safer. I'm not sure f+M is airborne, but if it is you can also mix it up with throw for a Rose-esque mixup. Her normals are kinda bad for footsies, honestly

Edge's cr.light, cr.light, st.medium, st.heavy -> gathering storm -> super -> cr.relentless pursuit is a pretty satisfying combo, even if it is super easy to pull off. Also play with a pad or stick! I found it to be much more fun that way.

Just played a literal piece of poo poo edge with 600 ping, but the game ran in super slow motion. So he could see the startup of my chell fireballs and just jump over for 30% punishes into oki. Thank god the game stopped after the first match.

Most of the alternate specials aren't in the game yet, might be thinking differently once they put them in.

I don't think any of the characters seem that out of balance.
Approaching without jumping is something people need to learn about Chel, because she can literally always punish a jump over her fireballs.
No air blocks makes the issue more claimant.

Throws do horrible damage but some characters (such as Edge) can dash cancel them for better combos/setups, at least.

None of the characters seem head-and-shoulders better than the rest at the moment. Crow has the most potential to be abused IMO but he's not there yet. Chel is just a fairly basic shoto in a game with one button DPs.

teagone posted:

I play both of them, the ease with which I can destroy everyone is why I'm making these claims.

edge's slide is retarded. super fast fullscreen low that's super safe on block, beats out everything and is even safe on whiff. it's an instant in, and then once edge is in he basically just gets to stay in forever while doing way more damage and having better mixups than characters who's supposed niche are these things

meanwhile chel just has really awesome frame data/normals. because of the characters all moving slow, only one character has a non super move that goes through fireballs (edge, with his slide) and them having tons of blockstun/pushback and basically zero recovery the only option you have against chels fireball is to jump at her and right into her disgustingly good DP. she can just hold up to cancel the first hit into a jump and either get a free crossup on block or a combo into airthrow on hit. both the meter for her DP and your fadc meter build super fast in this game, so she basically always has this option for her autocorrecting, one button so impossible to gently caress up DP.

oh, and chel ALSO gets to do way more damage than the actual damage characters do for some reason because she gets tons of combo tools nobody else does via airthrow, ground bounce and in general taking really good advantage of the endless piles of fadc meter the game gives you

it doesn't help that this game is (understandably) pretty poorly optimized and drops frames constantly.

finding the perfect timing to jump and punish chels fireball without her being able to recovery and DP you is one thing. doing it when the game suddenly decides to dip to 50 fps and gently caress up all your timings is another

Wont lie, the rage is real.
Talos is my current source of whining, because his stupid forward kick beats multi hit moves like vlads special 3.

It's nice that people are whining about a colorful array of different things though, the game is probably super balanced because nothing is.

i've beaten that move with crows multi hit sweep so it's not invincible

it's also hella unsafe so just block it and throw him or something

It's unsafe but the risk/reward is very good. At range most chars can't get a great punish unless they have super.

It's not invincible, just has armor. Anything that flashes blue has 1 hit of armor, anything that flashes orange is invincible for as long as they're orange.

I picked up talos to try it out and forward heavy is basically his go to move.
You can only reasonably punish it if he uses it point blank more or less, and if you are expecting it (as it catches jumps) you have to standing block.

Talos is weird as a grappler because he doesn't have a movement biased move that he can cancel or put a throw on the end.
No burning Zangief hand, hammerfall or otherwise; his throw mix-up is "block my bonkers kick" or "block my wake-up meaty"
Something about it just feels wrong.
