Posting broken characters!
Do I win
>fighting game characters
My favorite fighting game character is ryu (rye-you) from smash bros ultimate
Hes been nerfed since smash 4, but that just means he takes more skill now, haha!
>fighting game characters doing the thing they're famous for.
I can confidently say that this counts.
Haha, walked into that one.
I can't wait for my wife to get into Street Fighter 6
So what's your favorite kind of fighter in your typical 2D game?
Grapplers? Rush Down? Let's hear it.
For being the biggest buffest bitch in this shit and never skipping leg day
final round is tomorrow. soon Capcom will bless us with a new sfv announcement.
Either mixup heavy characters or characters that have good corner pressure.
I really doubt it will be anything big. If it were they'd have delayed the arcade release to open it with big exciting new content, rather than current patch. Going to be a character and at best a small balance update. They aren't putting money into this game any more, even the type arcade website is some web 1.0 shit

>best girl will never be in another fighting game
>doing the thing they’re famous for
more?
Circle and Triangle don't work with negative edge.
What buttons should B and C be set to for a pad. Not sure if it should be L1 and R1 or R1 and R2.
I don't really like pressing the flimsy bottom bumpers on the DS controllers but I am not sure if using L1 is messing up my left thumb's motions
are there any fighting games with animations/sprites as good as 3rd strike and garou:mark of the wolves?
Stay mad. Kiryu fags.
Your character will never be in T7.
Why is B Tatsu so good?
That's dependent on a number of factors. Do you prefer something close to the art style of those games because if it's just animation quality I'm gonna point you toward the newer Arc System Works games that have a handle on lighting and coloring 3D Models to make them look like 2D Illustrations.
Sadly the day of the pixel based fighting game is now left to indie studios remaking stuff like the old Neo Geo Pocket Color games like "Match of the Millennium" on the switch.
Christ is it impossible to keep some threads alive on this board.
ASW games do not have animations that are as good as Garou and Turd Strike.
The new 3D games are trying to copy the old 2D ASW animations and those were really low frame in comparison to those games.
ASW always did huge sprites with low frame animations.
Anyone going to EVO this year?
Plan on attending the SCVI bracket, fully expect to get my ass whooped and go 0-2, haven't been practicing due to work. My schedule is clearing up soon so hopefully I can get sharp again.
Sounds nice. Have fun!
you should have made a "fightan game girl" thread and then discussed fighting games inside it
I spam hadou kens all day and all night!!!
Because people don’t shield the last hit to make it -5
Going as well user, but I'm having a tough time choosing which games to enter. Going for 3 max and im feeling BBTag and Ultimate so far.
technically not fighting game but it's close enough to be honorary fighting game
It's just a fangame but Hyper DBZ has cool looking sprites that are sort of a mix between CPS2 and CvS youtube.com
Allright Yea Forums, Lets see em!
Cool thread
i like Elphelt a lot. i like her looks, i like her voice, i like how she brings guns to a swordfight.
A lot of people say "Grappler", but I say "Big Body". I don't want command grab so much as I want a big fucking meaty button with super armor on it that moves me forward 30-50% of the screen. I don't care if I have the slowest speed in the game, no airdash (or even ground dash), and middling high-low/left-right mixups at best. All I need is that armor and hitboxes to match it.
Command grabs are nice though, especially advancing armored ones and anti-air grabs you can combo into.
fuck i love Makoto, i wish i understood AT ALL how to play her.
Think I'm gonna pick up Karnov's Revenge on Switch to play with friends over the weekend.
Is it really a low budget SF2 clone?
mostly but karnov himself is anime as fuck.
you can look at some gameplay footage, like from a-cho.
Best bunbun
Stun best character, Busuzima best theme.
>Sol and not Johnny
thank u user
is UNIST one of those games where it's going to be hard learning it no matter what, so I should pick who looks cool?
i like Eltnum's design and her gun mechanic is cool
yes. everyone's OP in their own way, and everyone's difficult to play as in their own way, so don't be afraid of trying everyone out then sticking to who you like most
I'm starting to play a bit of SF4 with a friend that wanted to try the SF franchise. I'm not a great SF fan but I kind of miss it.
Not a fighting game at all. But damn it is fun to play.
I've also been trying out UMvC 3 and I'm liking 23/Storm/Phoenix.
Vanguard Princess. Made by a guy that supposedly was an ex-Capcom employee. It's absolutely stunning but also has a lot of fan-service. There's an "enhanced" version on Steam but the last free build should be linked in its Mizuumi Wiki page.
Other than that I guess KoF XIII but VP is just on a whole different level.
I like odd mechanics with long term application. Examples of this are projectiles you can set first and use on command, like May's dolphins or Bridget's yo-yo; stock systems like Nine's; and A.B.A's health system. I also like pets, even if they don't do anything, like Mina's whatever it is supposed to be or Linne's little dragon.
No, but I am going to Combo Breaker in May. It's only an hour from my house and I enjoy the experience and friendlies. I mostly play Skullgirls but enjoy messing around with some of the other games there.
jesus christ years ago I made one where all the pictures were cropped porn pictures and I'll never find it again
Let me enlighten you niggas on some dope ass fighting games that you never seen

Where's guile and who's that guy in green?
str vs. dex or diff between 5'11 and 6'0
>23/Storm/Phoenix.
Definitely an interesting team. Storm is the most solid mid-tier character in the whole roster, but you only ever really saw Wong play her. 23 & Phoenix might be incompatible on a strictly optimal level because 23's main draw is Level 3 unblockable incoming loops and Phoenix requires you to be very stingy on meter.
Amaterasu or Morrigan on Mid might work a bit better as they both have meter-build assists. Morrigan builds meter like a monster as well.
game when?
>23 & Phoenix might be incompatible on a strictly optimal level because 23's main draw is Level 3 unblockable incoming loops and Phoenix requires you to be very stingy on meter.
Yeah, I was reading up on them on the SRK Wiki and noticed that it could be a problem. I don't know if Storm could really compensate in the middle. I like Amaterasu so I'll check it out.
>Requires timing, positioning, frame perfect hit boxes, has life bars, a character select screen, works on a 2D plane
There's a lot there to call it honorary, yes.
Had to convert to jpg because png is obviously too big.
I'll get to playing some of the games missing slots on this list eventually for sure.
She looks so cool compared to Xrd Jam (not that Xrd Jam isn't fun to play though).
Xrd Jam had weird art, her in game model actually looks a lot better.
I like Chinese girls
you better not ask him for shit
What extra features should fighting games have? Arcade mode? Story? Challenge?
I don't ask him for shit but he still keeps giving anyway. Armor King, Marduk, Julia, making Negan fun.
e-sports and the people associated with them killed fighting games.
What are you thoughts on Legacy characters, I.E. Characters taking up/over a slot by being an improved/altered version of a fighter from a previous entry?
I really do miss when it was just about a way to have fun with your buds. No every asshole thinks they need to be some big shot online e-warrior.
Well that's really a matter of execution. Tekken 3 did it well but Soul Calibur 5 completely half assed it and gave us shit like monkey people and garu ninja.
Fighting games have always been a niche genre. The recent push to esports doesn't change the fact that normies will mostly stick to mainstream titles like SF. Tekken and MK over things like Blazblue, Arcana Heart, Unist, etc.
Story Mode OR Arcade (don't need both but Arcade alone is better than Story alone) with unique endings (they can be art with voicing, it's fine like that), Survival, full Training mode suite that the bigger games have these days, Combo Challenges for each character, some level of variety in character looks (colors, costumes).
You can have other modes but I think that should be the standard for a fully-feature fighting game. DBFZ has its Raid battles and its Lobby stuff, NRS games have a bunch of side content, T7 has Bowling (although that was DLC).
How are some random assholes preventing you from having fun with your buds?
I don'd mind legacy characters but I also like developers being inventive and trying some new shit. Rostar bloat is shitty though, you just have hangers-on and characters that really should just go away.
I think there really HAS to be some kind of story mode. But not like the recent games have been doing it were the STORY is basically a single movie interrupted by fights. You do it that way and it always ends up just being about the small handful of mains while everyone else gets a glorified cameos if they're lucky.
I liked it better when every characters had their own story they would follow no matter how small or inane it could be. You know back when, for example, Guilty Gear X2 had like 3-4 story paths per character. Or Soul BLADE's Edge Master mode.
I'll be there for UNIST and Samsho, love those games.
Basically everything Them's Fightin' Herds is doing
>random indie traditional anime fighter that grew out of a fan-game for a series that can't be named
>has a break the targets mode when Smash Ultimate doesn't
I love throwing out dumb shit from afar. I guess zoners, but really any move that can be spammed with decent spacing. I was always "that guy" with my friends. They hated my Remy (even though he sucks), and I love chucking grenades with Elphelt and her fucking H! SO SPAMMY.
In traditional ones like KoF or SF I tend to pick characters with rekkas or other forms of moving forward with some safe active frames covering my approach like Abel or Mature. I played SFV during it's free week and enjoyed Laura
In airdashers I like puppeteers and characters with 'disconnected' moves, like able to set something does an attack while the character himself is free to move
based shoto zoner
That sounds like what Arcade mode is supposed to be.
I like counter characters.
>Anyone going to EVO this year?
Sad about GGXrd being gone, so I'm on the fence. Don't really give a shit about any of the top 8 besides maybe UNIST. Is it worth attending just to play casuals? Lately all I play is old shit like Third Strike and Garou so I'm out of the loop.
Zoners, I love keeping a distance with projectiles and controlling the pace of the match.
so go there and play old shit. Nobody to blame for xrd not being there besides arcsys
Shake the baby
I made mine in order of how much I play/how less I suck Is my DBZ team still a meme team? I only played it a couple times and never touched it again but those 3 were really fun to play
>yuzuriha
She's too cool. Learning her to play as my sub character
I have no idea, I've only played SFV and Melee
I just like good frame data and nice buttons
I usually avoid execution heavy characters but I tried her missions for the meme and everything felt so satisfying to hit that I ended up maining her.
>I've only played SFV and Melee
I miss the bangs
I'm trying to grow out of being a degenerate trainingboar but also love that her moveset feels versatile enough to allow me to create my own shit in training mode
>always want to try out fighting games
>too scared to play online
>fuck up my combos and execution if I face other people
>want to main Juri in SF5 despite others telling me she is shit tier back then and all the other characters are lame, even the villains
SF5 on the whole is shit tier
>he doesn't go to locals
What the FUCK is your excuse?
In my opinion no. I feel like it is always crowed and there aren't enough open set ups to play casuals. Vegas isn't exactly cheap either. I'd say support your local tournaments and the one that do actually have the games you want to enter in. Unless being in a crowd to react to news means that much to you.
MACHO FISH
explain to me the appeal of evil girls. Cause I know you like azula too and I don't get it
The closest locals I know about are about 600km away.
>want to main Juri in SF5
Ah yes, truly the sign of a plebian.
Stop thinking with your micro penis and use that pea sized brain for once. You start with a character like Ryu, you learn general mechanics and controls, then move on to learning some less general things like your characters' BnB combos and movement. After that you grind matches like a motherfucker. You will grind for months and months and still be shit, but will be improving. Stop being a faggot and just do it.
Dominant girl and mean girls are the only justifiable way he could ever see himself becoming intimate with a woman.
he has trash taste but there is nothing wrong with picking characters you want to play. No reason to play a character you don't want to play
Fuck Ryu
Overall I agree with you but I'm just sick of these idiots going "I want to main Juri/Angel/Baiken, how do I become good enough to win evo in a week?" and other stupid expectations. Choosing with your dick isn't how you should pick a main, actually fucking play the characters. These idiots buy a game, try playing Juri/Angel/Baiken, realize they're hard as fuck to play, and then just quit after a few days in training mode. It's absolutely retarded.
As boring as you might find him his design is still one of, if not, the best for introducing new players the genre.
I live in SC, there was a local scene around 2012 but I got into fighting games late.
Dead weight.
Either grapples or someone with some sort gimmik, like armor or some weird shit.
I suck at fighting games though, the only one I was ever decent at was usf4 but decent might be a stretch.
Did the people that say this things actually follow their preachings?
no need at getting mad at the waifu lords man, them playing or not doesn't effect you. Plus I don't agree with ryu being the best introduction flat out. The person should play who they are interested in so they actually want to play. Plus giving new players a DP is always shitty cause they never learn to block
I wanna see a 2 or 3d vehicular combat fighting game.
Maybe like 0.0000001%, they just drop the game and continue jerking off to the girls more often then not.
I already played him as my beginner character and I realized my playstyle is a piece of shit rushdown who can also throw fireballs
So Juri it is
The best fighting game of all time is coming to Switch in May, how does that make you feel?
Nothing. No one plays GG.
>unaired drafts
heh
The problem with Juri isn't that she's an "evil" girl, it's that she's babies first "LOL EVIL" girl.
Shes just evil chun li but her and azula fill this niche that I just don't understand the appeal of
>Hur durr everyone but me quits in a week.
Because you're in their house watching them play every day. Fuck you. The people who drop a game for being hard aren't gonna stick with it by picking boring vanilla characters like Ryu either. A waifu shitter may play the game casually for their waifu and never get evo good but at least they're gonna be honest about it. Which is more than we can say about FGCuck turbo badasses like you.
2000s fags like her because she has the same hair as that slut from Teen Titans.
>Don't really feel Alex in 3S
>Main him in TvC and SFV
I don't get it. Granted he's still second to PTX and Abigail in those games.
>Playing SV5 at all
I sold my copy after getting my fill of Abigail (he's the only reason I didn't get rid of it sooner, I needed to try out that big lumbering fuck). Still, when I did play I really liked how Alex worked, but in 3S I don't really get the same feeling. I play Yang/Q instead.
I'm almost the same. I enjoy big body characters, but they need to have some unnatural way of closing gaps like T Hawk or Tager.
Are you me? Because I did the same thing when I first started playing 3rd Strike but I'd say due to TvC is why I like him so much to use him in that game now as well as SFV.
>tfw no battle assault 4
>When both replies in a post are (You)
My Big Body Brother
No need to be this assblasted I mentioned your waifu, waifufags are annoying retards who are often too pathetic to put real effort into anything is all I meant.
>WAAAAAAAAH PEOPLE ARE HAVING FUN IN A WAY I DON'T LIKE!
Any feeling about Battle for the Grid in this thread? I feel like the dedicated threads are more PR fans than fighting game players (which is fine), so I figured I'd ask here. I think the systems look really nice, but I haven't watched the most recent stream that apparently breaks down the Megazord Ultra system.

>wholesome memories
I met my current best friend at a MVC2 cabinet at my College. I go to the cab after classes on my first day, I go to play with the dude who was already playing, and I said to him "hey, aren't you in my class?" and it went from there. I still hang with the dude like a decade later.
Aside from that, my favourite memories would be being poor and playing 3s and KOF with GGPO/supercade client on PC. I spent many nights playing randos from South America and getting whooped. I also have some fond memories of playing GGPO games against tripfags on vg/fgg. Most of those tripfags don't post anymore, makes me sad.
Least favourite memories would include playing fighting games with my brother. My brother liked to get drunk and rage-out while playing fighters. I remember one time I was playing SF4 with him at 4am, both of us playing our main-chickens (him Honda, me Chun) have having a fierce set, and he started screaming about some dumb bullshit (he was still winning, but he wasn't winning "the way he wanted"), and my mom in the next room (who had work the next day) had to come and tell him to shut up.
As awful as /fgg/ is and was, I do miss the occasional UMvC3 lobbies I would have. What's worse is that I leveled up shortly after those stopped happening for me, mostly by just saying fuck it and picking up Sentinel to compliment my Hulk/Dormammu shell.
Does Bob count as big body?
Ive seen chaos breaker and Super dbz isn't good.
I really like DOA6's OST, that's all

I always liked fighting game OSTs because the conditions they must meet make them sound very unique. Lately though i've tired of all these fucking WUB WUBs, fuck, even DMC5 fell for that shit.
It doesn't look terrible, but I'm far from impressed. It still looks like it is better designed than DBFZ and more fun than SFV, so that's something for it being a studio with no experience and only Justin Wong to guide them. The mechanics seem serviceable, the pace is fast, and there could be some interesting tech hidden in there. The characters are hideous though, and the hitstop is awkwardly high.
I do not like Power Rangers at all and I'm not a huge fan of tag fighters either, so I don't think I'm going to try it.
My fav fighting game OSTs are GGX2#R, GGX2#R (Korean edition) and Killer instinct.
>no experience and only Justin Wong to guide them
Apparently Wong's involvement isn't as big as we thought. Cl0ckwerk and Shady K are designing the systems. The hitstop in the first trailer was toned down a lot compared to later ones like the one I posted, although it's still on the higher side. As somebody that's put 1000+ hours into UMvC3's Training Mode alone (and has close to 200 in DBFZ's) I'll probably get my money's worth just labbing it.
>Both GGXX#R OSTs and based Mick Gordon KI
Nice music taste, although I really enjoy Xrd's vocal themes and a couple of the character themes like Leo & Johnny's.
most are not that hard, yuzu/seth/vatista are the ones you should avoid when you start

Is SF5 shite or what?
Heard it’s just about knockdowns and zero footsies.
Worth getting for someone who hasn’t played a Street Fighter game since 2012 SF4?
How’s online?
I wish there was one for Super Sentai or Kamen Rider.
jus play sf4 if you want a street fighter imo.
or third strike.
The best and most succinct argument against SFV I've ever seen is "Everybody's best poke is also their best combo starter".
SFV is legit an awful game
My take on it is this:
The design of the game doesn't have that many flaws, only the grabs not being quite well designed and kind of a 50/50 in some situations, knockdown being the most prominent. It was the case in 4 too but then there was an OS. I don't know if people have found an OS for 5 since I'm not up to date on that game.
The real flaw is that the design is too strict, making it so you have very little freedom. You have to play that game by the book. This makes the game boring and dull in a very short time. All the characters are meant to be played in a very specific way. Additionally, walk speeds are obnoxiously low.
If you are really into SF and hate the more "anime" games you may like it, but you won't like it as much as the previous ones, most likely.
As for the online, I did play for a bit like a month ago and I found it horrible. The "rollback" netcode it uses doesn't seem to me like rollback but rather rollforward. When there's a delay or packet loss during, say, a jump, the game won't go back to the point where the input was lost and start the jump from the beginning but rather spawn the opponent directly on the verge of the jump.
I'd recommend you either try finding people for USF4 or go for SF3 in Fightcade/30th Anniversary Collection.
Cammy was an Australian singer and very popular in England.
Who was the first person to defeat The General in Kaiser Knuckle?
It’s a fever dream that Kylie Monouge was Cammy one time.
Looks like a phone game
Is this real? Can't really tell since its Yea Forums after all
>Looks like a phone game
It's reusing assets from a phone game so that makes sense.
>Is this real?
Yes. Has GG1 and GGXXAC+R (and only those two).
>Yes. Has GG1 and GGXXAC+R (and only those two).
Ironically those are the only GG games i care about, might get this
Keep in mind that America isn't getting the physical version for some reason, but yes the game is real.
I always enjoy seeing this. Thanks.
bump
Dammit Squiggly I wish you were in a game I could enjoy.
>he doesn't enjoy Squigly's game
about to be EVO famous
Its a technically well made game, but damn does it feel like work learning the combos, resets and getting around the infinite system. Not to mention rundown and resets are not my style.
Just be like me and play solo Band.
I miss Primal Rage.
Figured youd miss Darkstalkers.
I'm the opposite. I can't click with his SFV style at all, 3S is only where he seems to shine for me.
Don't know or give a shit about Granblue Fantasy but damn, this looks sick.

Really hope it's not gonna stay a PS4 exclusive.
That trio of characters look hella fun.
Reminds me a bit of Felicia from darkstalkers with some of the moves.
That too. They both probably have the same chances of coming back, really.
The Lowain bros really look pretty stupid.

I'm burned out. I feel no motivation to even pick up the controller anymore when I used to practice all day. I don't even want to play with people online anymore. Maybe if I had a willing rival to play with in real life, but I'm so unfriendly and depressing that it'll never happen. Is there really a point to fighting day in and out without anybody to measure up to? I guess that mindset is what got me so down in the first place. Do I just not feel a need to fight anymore? My entire life has been fighting, I guess I'm just tired of how lonesome a path has been carved for me.
anything
i fucking main random select!
The core fighters version of DOA6 just released so go check it out if you never tried the series before.
I remember randomly stumbling across this image along the one with Filia on DeviantArt and thinking these characters look cool as fuck and I'd love to play a video game with them in it. Then about a year later I find out that it is game and was coming out soon on console, though I only got to play it once the PC endless beta was given away as a preorder bonus.
Who are the Core Fighters? I've played the retail version of 5 a couple times and I only liked a few. Also damn, that's pretty thick my man.
I love aba!
whats up faggots. I just ordered a razer panthera from amazon yesterday and plan on getting a korean crown stick to put in it. What custom art work should i put on it?
>Bass
Nice.
>No brown luchadora
Not nice.
I'll probably download it. It has a Training mode right?
Rush down pressure characters are always fun. I do like to switch it up with some fast grapples though
I assume it does, someone said you can play with the other characters in that mode too but i can't confirm any of this. Probably won't have any of the single player content besides training.
It's a better free roster than 5 which was the 4 ninjas, this is more varied.
Angel.
Nani the fuck?
ok, super important question:
what is the best fighting game.....anime
that face in OP looks like the spicy keychain picture
>Terry, why would you give me the ol' Spicy Knuckle? No, I am NOT okay! Nobody is okay after the Spicy Knuckle!
Uni
There isn't one sadly unless you count the inverse of Dragonball.
All fighting game adaptations to anime have been done poorly.
wrong answer faggot
Alright then, the Fatal Fury OVA was okay but that's all I'll give ya.
that is a good answer
also, voltage fighter gowcaizer
im lying
Looks fucking retarded. Power Ranger fags are Sonic levels of autistic.
>Sanic levels of autism.
Super Sentai lovers are spandex loving autist but it'll be discrediting if you compare to the goldmine of autism Sanic has.
Nah. PR fags and Sentai fags are different kinds of autistic. PR fags are all fat old fucks trying to hide the fact that they're old and nobody likes the 90s anymore as they jack off to Jason David Frank.
Except most PR fans I've seen don't like that the game has two characters that are Tommy. Everybody would prefer a potential Dino Thunder rep be White rather than Black so we can avoid 3Tommy.
