Corbeau posted:The KOF14 character artists don't even seem to bumpmap these models. Or if they are, then it's not noticeable. It's so absurdly far behind in basic technical competence that I'm mystified. There's no defense for skipping something that basic in this day and age. Honestly, the animation is pretty bad as well. That's one thing SFV really nailed

Everyone talking about visuals in modern fighting games, and nobody mentions how absurdly pretty Tekken7:FR is looking?

Gammatron 64 posted:I should really just sit down and work on learning GG. Maybe Slayer, Jam or the girl in the kung fu robot man might be more up my alley as I guess they're a little more street fightery and less gimmicky. I think I kind of gravitate towards straightforward (i.e. boring) characters like Balrog for whatever reason. I've never been very big on style, I just like to smash things with a big blunt instrument. I like playing footsies or rushdown and filling the screen with projectiles and weirdo things like controlling a puppet or whatever just aren't my jam. I'll give you the advice that was given to me. Nobody in the west is good enough that tier lists factor much into it, some characters are just easier to win with starting out. Like that time FAB came to Europe and absolutely clowned on everyone with the worst character in the game.

uncleKitchener posted:Arcades are dead in UK (London) too. It's mostly gaming bars and venues with lot of cabs managed by enthusiasts. There's Vegas next to the old Troc Funland and there's Violent City close to Manor house station. There's a new Heart of Gaming opening in Shepherds Bush too. OTOH up in the northwest UK we have Arcade club, which is 150+ machines, all on freeplay, at £10 for a day pass. It's the absolute nuts, though I'd love to take a trip down to Violent city sometime, looks fantastic from the pictures.

SuccinctAndPunchy posted:jesus christ I just looked up where the Heart Of Gaming is going to be and lol how the hell did he get a place like that? That's pretty great. I'll probably stop by and say hi at some point, I went to the Heart Of Gaming in north acton often enough. How long ago did you go? They got a bigger place this year (twice the size), and run FG specific events with Manchester Battle Arena on the regular now. Surprised there were defective machines at all, they repair everything themselves and have something like 50 spare cabs for replacements. Will agree that there are some retarded people go there, but that's any arcade, the staff will happily reset machines for you. There's basically zero chance of something like HoG up north, but I'm pretty happy with what we got.

In Training posted:I CTRL-F Millia and then Guilty and got 0, so for people who can make that leap, what's the closest Tekken analogue to Millia? There's nobody as degenerate as Millia in Tekken. The closest thing might be Josie, as she has really annoying mixups. Nobody is really an Oki monster on Millia level.

Reiley posted:Does anyone know any fighting game characters who have move like Talbain's Beast Cannon? I realize that I have the most fun with characters who have that move where they charge forward on one angle, and then move a second time on another angle. Since I thought about it Samsho's Rera works like Beast Cannon if you count the dismount angle as a second arc, and there's the famous Quick Attack in Smash. Are there other characters who do this? Because I will probably enjoy the games they're in a lot. Valkenhayn from Blazblue has an identical beast cannon
