Modern controls doesn't improve your reaction times. If you can't anti-air DP or hit-confirm on reaction with classic controls you won't be able to do it with modern, because it's your brain that's too slow.

Countering DI with your own DI is one of the first muscle memory reactions everyone should practice. People will be throwing tons of raw DI's online, because at least early on it'll work more often than not.

There's no flat 20% damage reduction on modern, but some moves do have it. If you do a raw DP it always has the damage of light DP, which is 20% less than the heavy version. But if you cancel into the DP from a normal, it has the same damage as heavy DP. It's all very inconsistent and confusing.

If SPD is just direction+special with modern controls, Gief is going to be absolutely degenerate in this game. As in, not fun at all to play against at any skill level.

Some of the players appearing on Daigo's SF6 demo streams have been using modern controls (John Takeuchi, Trashbox), and so far it's been a big nothingburger. Besides reacting to badly spaced fireballs with supers, they haven't really been doing anything special. If anything they've been worse off than classic controls players because they can't do Luke's st.MK, his best poke in neutral. Some people have been saying modern controls will break the game because people will be whiff punishing everything with DPs and supers. Yeah that's not a thing, not even with John Takeuchi's insane zoomer reactions.

morestuff posted:Looks like Gief / Lilly do in fact have one button inputs for their 360 moves in Modern mode so we’ll see how that works out Apparently Gief only has heavy SPD with modern, no light (which has the best range) or medium. I doubt that makes it worthwhile for better players.

Of course Gief can still do light and medium SPD on modern by doing the full 360 motion. But just having heavy SPD as easy input doesn't really add much, when it's not really used outside punishes due to the tiny range.

Good mixture of not knowing what I'm doing but still winning a couple here and there, and fun trying out all the stuff for the first time in this one. There's no quick recovery in this game afaik, but you can back roll on wakeup (from non-hard knockdown) by holding down two buttons.

chumbler posted:It's in large part because just day 2 and not really having training mode so I have scarcely more than zero combos and still mess them up half the time, but boy Chun feels really bad to me. It feels like she has a shorter range than any of the other characters which is weird considering how she's always been before, her st.mk doesn't seem to really duck anything, and she doesn't have anything that leaves her neutral or at least safe negative other than ex legs and maybe H legs (though that will be beaten on startup if they mash). Hazanshu they say is supposed to be used to close distance and beat sweeps, but it loses to any button seemingly including lows and isn't safe on block. It honestly even seems like she's like 20% smaller than she should be. The biggest issues I've been having are getting used to her really long fireball charge time and up inputs being so sensitive that I'm constantly getting sbk (and consequently eating poo poo for it) instead of legs or hazanshu. Punk was playing Chun and had like a 50 win streak in ranked, so there's some replays to watch at least.

I'm pretty sure most people using modern controls in the beta did it just because it was the default option and they didn't know how (or why) to change it. I don't think I saw a single modern player in my 100 or so ranked matches, and only a few in casuals/battle hub.

Weird Pumpkin posted:They mentioned adding online training mode which is cool, so I suppose that'll probably be a thing? I'm assuming there's an offline training mode you can get to as well or at least man I hope so! There's offline training mode option right there in the fighting ground practice menu, it was just disabled in the beta so people would actually test the online play. It would've been hilarious though if they put in all that effort make a really good training mode, with frame data and all kinds of advanced options, and then only put it in the limited amount of battle hub cabinets.

Luke is boring because he's pretty much the same character as in SFV. All other returning characters have loads of new stuff, even regular guy Ryu.

Giving a low score for the whole game because of World Tour is extra ridiculous considering it's essentially bonus content that doesn't normally exist in other similarly priced fighting games. You can ignore the whole mode and still get the usual fighting game experience, which is generally excellent in this game.

SwissArmyDruid posted:so I guess where Capcom decided to do their "let's alienate a few older players so that we can expand our audience to new players" thing is to cut loose the old heads who remember when $60 meant $60 and not having parts artificially carved out, locked behind a grind, with a giant neon sign that says "MICROTRANSACTION FAST PASS". Putting some costumes behind a paywall is pretty loving tame compared to some of their earlier antics, like the on-disc DLC characters in SFxT.

teagone posted:I don't know if it's too early still, but I'd assume if that were the case, all the top players that will be crawling the pro tour would be using modern controls in ranked. At the moment, I'm pretty sure most are all using classic. Of the top players that are streaming I've yet to see anyone using modern, or complain about it. It seems to be a complete non-issue at that level, I've only seen redditors and casuals mad about modern.

Jack Trades posted:Christ. All the Japanese pros are ranking Guile as S-tier, and I'm not sure why. He's not bad, but he's very... honest. No throw loops in the corner, no real frame traps (only F+HP is positive on block), etc. Unlike most other characters in the game he has no robbery potential, so you'll have to win the old-fashioned way: chucking booms, flash kicking jump-ins and counter-poking.

The few actual Gold matches I've done have shown that it was a mistaken placement heh. And it's especially weird because I won 7 out of 10 with Zangief too and got Silver. On my third set of placements I went 8-2 and was put in mid-Silver. I don't mind climbing out of the swamp, but that's some inconsistent poo poo.

Gold 1 will become by far the biggest rank, as that's where all the people who can't really go further will accumulate. Even people who are not really gold-level will get out of silver eventually with some win-streaks.
