The end of online matches should just dump you into the same screen against the same character with a CPU so that you can do training without sitting through like 20 seconds of loading time

It is loving nuts how hard it is to incorporate new poo poo playing this game. Like today I practice a combo that wasn't the usual Karin bread and butter and am trying to make a conscious effort to actually use my constantly full V for reversals and now I am constantly losing to the hordes of loving dogshit bronze Ryus. Like my brain can't handle any additional layers of decision making and just completely shuts down.

I know, and I realize that just being good at footsies and like one bnb/punish combo is a pretty big ceiling to actually getting better. It is just sort of fascinating to watch myself revert back into a stupid moron when I throw just one more thing to think about when some guy is doing the same old jump in at you.

if i was going to make a fighting game story mainly with sfv's assets without adding too much new artwork and stuff i would take each stage and bring its background models up to the front and you would have to do adventure game puzzles in each scene and talk to all the people and have a number of fights with them before moving on and that would be pretty cool. maybe string the stages together with an airplane scene with more people to talk to and some air marshals to fight idk to make it more cohesive.

are there games like that? shenmue maybe counts idk?

I'd make it a voxel crafting game where you have to gather resources to make combos

wait, you can farm the story mode for FM more than once? (not that anybody would)

You have to do all the fights again in hard mode. It was pretty not fun since the hard CPU has instant reaction speed to everything and I don't know many characters, so a lot of it for me was doing a bunch of matches with characters I didn't know trying to find whatever hole in the AI logic existed for that matchup. It would have been more fun at a slightly easier difficulty so that you can actually learn everyone a bit instead of just like sitting in a corner spamming a button that gets walked into endlessly.

Why would Capcom only acknowledge players unlocking stuff now when PC people have been doing it for months? Is it because of the method?

side note: i am much happier in life now that I don't have to grind survival. If capcom feels like I murdered their dog, so be it. Survival is a trash fire.

Because you can now buy them for Steam/PSN bucks.

I also don't really get the griping about it, of course they weren't going to let people download a mod to unlock everything forever

curiously, have you played other fighting games to the extent that you have played sf5? the best (only good) part about SF5 is that it brings new players into the fold. you might be surprised at how much you enjoy other games in the genre, especially if you're willing to give a game like SF5 a chance or even a second thought.

I've gone from the original SF games -> Tekken Tag -> DoA -> SF4 (and a tiny bit of Skullgirls) -> SF5. Obviously with a lot of time gaps in between.

I think I like SFV because the footsies part feel really good to me, where there are ways to punish people who are relying on one particular strategy, and adapting what you are doing over a three game set feels like it is rewarded. The characters are different enough to adapt your play around them but most aren't so different where it feels reliant on being gimmicky (if that makes sense). In Super Bronze I can find a game like every 30 seconds and after the patch it is usually against people around my skill and the fights are usually pretty fun.

Everything surrounding the game is a stupid pile of poo poo but I find myself matchmaking for hours on end because I am having fun. Maybe that means I'm an idiot.
