this is why not putting up the cash shop immediately was a huge mistake, cause you cannot give people free content then just take it away... there will be a significant negative reaction.

they really just need to go "ok those guys are all free thanks for your patience"

Yeah, at this point people have had them for long enough that it's going to piss people off. I could maybe understand if the free period was really short, but Alex has been available for months.

The actual gameplay is really fun, especially if you aren't trying to compare it to all the other SF games you have played.

I agree, I actually quite like SF5's actual fighting. I certainly prefer it to SF4, at any rate.

but i'm still probably not going to actually buy it for a while because £40-50 is asking way too much for a game that's blatantly not finished. I'll wait until the price is down and the game's actually feature complete.

it's kind of a shame really? because on the one hand, I do like the game so I don't want to see it fail, but on the other hand the general management of the game has been loving appalling and having it tank feels kinda deserved

Can't they just have both Direct Input and X Input options?

Yes, and so can everyone but loads of people get loving lazy about it and only have XInput which I wish games got nailed for more often, support both you useless fucks.

the fact that SF5 got lazy about it is monumentally retarded though when their own official hardware uses DirectInput

What would you say to the people out there that have Street Fighter V, but may still be left wanting. Then seeing Injustice 2, a new Guilty Gear, a new King of Fighters, and a new Tekken on the way, and thinking about making the switch? Why should they be confident that you'll be able to turn it around?

I really enjoy Urien's VA in this game. Mostly because I just worked out that he's saying "Heaven and Earth tremble!" during his super and that's kind of metal as gently caress

You can literally hop on Fightcade and play random people from all over the world at most times of day in a ton of old rear end games.

It's not hard.

Yeah, I don't get the idea that Fightcade is so much effort because I have no difficulty getting matches in Super Turbo at all at basically any time of the day.

like seriously just pick a random bum with an acceptable ping and shoot them a challenge, if that's a step too much for you then lol

You know, while everyone's being negative about SF5 I have at least one nice thing to say which is that I genuinely think the game's got a pretty good soundtrack.

I don't necessarily care for those who go crazy on the negativity, but those who hate the game vehemently while still playing it are out and out mentally ill, so good job not being one of those :)

But does criticizing it for its flaws but still liking it and playing it make one also out and out mentally ill? Or only half? A quarter?

I think the need for sticks is a problem, theyre expensive as hell and used for a tiny number of games. If I wanted to play revelator, I would have to buy a ps4, the game, and a big ol stick on top of that that I would only use for GG. Say what you will about MKX but at least its totally playable with controllers, which I think is a big deal. Maybe the same could be said for smash, though you still have to buy an extra controller these days.

you entirely don't need a stick for any fighting game at all, really

Most people at tourneys play on stick for a reason,

and that reason is because a lot of people have been playing fighting games for quite a while back when fighting games belonged in arcades and stick was the only method of control so they got used to that poo poo

meanwhile, a game series like Tekken which is predominantly popular on consoles seems to have a lot of pad players, apart from Koreans who normally play on stick because they too, play in arcades

Maybe people actually just use what they're used to rather than any inherent superiority of a control method.

ryu can pull similar poo poo with jumping short, I believe? I had a friend use it on me like maybe 3 days after the game's release and I was really really confused so I asked him "did that hit in the back but land in the front" and he just looked at me with a grin and said "Yeeeep, that's the cheap poo poo alright".

he's much better at street fighter than me

I'm not sure I understand half the point of Kolin's V-trigger. It prevents the stun gauge from decreasing sure, but if she stuns the enemy, they freeze? In what way is that distinct from just being stunned, because without further context it reads like "if she stuns the enemy, she stuns the enemy" and it's like yeah but why is that different
