Sick! Thats DOPE posted:

I think hes top tier, but also kind of easy to play. I guess if you want to look at him vs Chun and Dhalsim as being the top tier trio right now(Maybe Nash too), Dhalsim and Chun take a lot of work meanwhile Bison has some of the best normals in the game and pretty drat easy combos that do OBSCENE damage, since he has no walk speed you don't really play a movement based game, you sort of just threaten by being a brick wall. His df+HP is really long range and crush counters while moving him forward to setup free very easy confirm combos, its a slow startup move BUT not so slow you can react by stuffing the startup that way you can to something like Mikas dropkick and it leaves him +1 on block, this has a lot of implications in making him "easy" to play since theres really no counterplay except to stay in his face, but just like dhalsim its hard to truly threaten ppl in this game with mash jab/throw + v-reversal right now lol. I dont play him so I don't know what his weakness would be, I guess his lack of good AA buttons

This is pretty accurate. He also doesn't have any invincible reversals, nor does he have anything that comes out in 3 frames, so he can struggle under good pressure as well. He's definitely a good character, but I don't think he's far and away the best. Chun and Sim are definitely hanging out in the same category.

SFV really does get worse by the second, huh?

Eh, it's not really worse because I don't think anyone is too surprised about dumb new costumes or stages. It's just kinda wallowing.

Edit: poo poo, didn't realize the colors would be exclusive, just thought the bundle was. Disregard the above, poo poo's dumb as hell.

Yeah. lIke two characters. Fei and Rose come to mind. Plinking made 1-frame links super easy anyway. Even unplinkable ones weren't that hard with some practice.
If anything the SJC's with Viper were way harder than links.

Bison had a pretty important one too

Yeah, unfortunately you need to update, restart, and then remove Capcom.sys from System32. It's obnoxious, but there might not be a way for Steam to handle uninstalling from that directory anyways.

I was testing Urein's usual combo in the corner and it was having issues, could be because of the moving background messing up timing. Also, I love this stupid game.

If you're talking about his fireball/tackle juggles, those always have different timings in the corner on any stage.

is urien good enough for a top 8 showing or are we gonna see all nash and chun with a token vega and shoto again?

i would like to see infiltration lose to someone with a lot of heart at cpt. or see him utterly dominate again and throw out more sick burns. either is good.

I don't expect him to show up in the CPT finals, but I think that's more a function of his newness than anything else. RB has been doing incredible things with Urien.

I'm still having fun with this game, but it's mostly because Urien is incredibly fun to play. He has good walkspeed, excellent pokes and buttons that feel good, and aegis setups are actually pretty easy to pickup (the resets are much more difficult, of course).

4 is a bad game but top level play was consistently entertaining at least

I've actually found recent top level play to be really fun to watch. There's definitely been some more diversity in cast and new styles in the last few premier events.

http://www.capcom-unity.com/harrisony/blog/2016/12/03/akuma-the-master-of-the-fist-is-coming-to-street-fighter-v

Some details on VStuff for him:

V-Skill: Rakan
Akuma strikes a defensive stance and similar to Ryu�s Mind�s Eye, can parry an incoming attack. He can follow-up the move with an upward kick or a long reaching palm strike.

V-Trigger: Dohatsu Shoten
Akuma powers up and envelops his body with ki to enter Dohatsu Shoten mode. In this mode, his Gohadokens are more powerful, now able to travel full-screen and he can unleash two in the air even while jumping backwards. Additionally, when he lands his Goshoryuken attack, he follows-up and violently drives his opponents into the ground.

Also, his critical art is only available in V-Trigger, so I'm guessing it'll be a Necalli style permanent one. There's also a classic costume for those who hate the new look:

He's out Dec 20th

Edit: Nvm, he has two critical arts. One in V-trigger, one not.

It was also one of the few interesting things in this game.

It was interesting in that it was something new to a SF game, sure. It wasn't interesting in practice because it's rarely the wrong choice and didn't have a lot of counterplay. Plus, it's not like they're getting rid of it entirely. Just toning it down a bit.

There are dozens of us! I'm so hoping at some point they can find the time to fix the UX stuff (bad menus, loading times, training options not saving) because that's egregiously bad. But I think the actual fighting part is totally fine and good

I haven't kept up with the season 2 changes but if looks like they nerfed the entire cast

The two characters I play (Urien, Dictator) seem to have gotten nothing but buffs. Like, Urien got some crazy ones (including a crossup on j.LK) that I didn't even think he really needed.

I'm overall pretty happy with the changes (mostly because they're undoing a lot of the s2 changes that I hated) but there's also some dumb stuff. I don't think Guile and Urien should be nerfed, they're powerful and interesting characters and the rest of the cast should be brought to that level. Also I hate that they made ken's b+mk overhead -4 to be in line with the rest of the cast, rather than making the rest of the cast's command overheads NOT punishable on block, you know like every other street fighter game in existence.

I liked the Urien changes well enough. He's still going to be a very strong character, they've just gotten rid of a few of his more brainless options.

strekken has the base framework for a really great game

Does it? Nothing I've ever seen has indicated it could really be anything but mediocre. Like, my impression has been it combines some of the worst parts of a tekken tag game with SF stuff and that even before some of the more degenerate stuff was found, I didn't hear anyone raving about it being fun to play.

Hi I wanted to ask if anything ever happened with Gill or if he's been forgotten.

Story mode ended with a stinger teasing him and then he was never mentioned again so I assume he died off camera or something.

I mean, this game takes place before SF3 in the timeline, so I don't think he wandered off to die after the SF5 story
