Nah, but I'll fap to her if there is a good doujin or some decent fanart.

Yeah, latest patch is really good

Oh shit for real? What are the RE changes?

I honestly haven't regretted a purchase as much as I have SCVI in a long time.

>make the villain of the series some horribly demonic fucker
>Make him TINY AS FUCK
>realize that if I encountered nightmare I'd tower over his manlet ass and laugh
>not just slightly short, LITERALLY manlet short

Really messed up on that design.

It hurds your guard gauge more (20% guard damage) and builds less meter.

They also fixed that annoying issue where it would take the very first thing you input as your RE action and ignore your later presses.

Why, it's got the best gameplay, balance, and character variety of any SC by a fair margin.

she's like 12 you sicko

i cant find her on the character select or in the PSN store
i did fight against her in arcade though

Are customs still allowed in random matches?

yes both CaS and Costumes

Ah lame. Guess I won't be playing then.

She's definitely out on PS4

I remember PS4 owners previously saying they didn't see DLC yet and it's because there's somewhere specific they have to look. I don't remember where though, sorry.

fuck I need to play SC6 more, re2 and dmc5 have monopolized my game time

Customs are irrelevant desu

This but I also want to get Sekiro too.

Imagine patching a game twice in three months and getting a more balanced product than literally any current arcsys or capcom fighter that's been out for years

Don't they fuck up hitboxes? That's enough for me to not play.

PSN store in game she isnt there
PSN store she isnt there

Not in any genuinely relevant way.

And almost nobody outside the babby ranks uses characters with different hitboxes anyway.

why does she look like a retard?

Raphael doesn't even strip Amy with his SC 6B string. He's all about that genuine fatherly love man not that pedo shit.

talim does need to return the favor to amy

I'm glad that they aren't completely butt fucking the balance somehow with all these patches despite some questionable changes, but I hope they slow it the fuck down before they break something that works. Really any future patches for characters for now should just be to improve hitboxes and hurtboxes.

>new amy and talim models
oh boy this game just earned another 200 hours for me

ooooh nooooo

She's just incredibly cute

Not really interested in Amy, but I wanna check out those Kilik changes.

I'm a Create-a-Soul babby but I don't agree about the hitboxes. Making characters tall usually gives them much better reach. Making characters short make it so some attacks whiff. You can't make a custom Astaroth that is as big as the real character so it throws some stuff off.

All that said, I don't think it's overly relevant unless you're playing in tournaments or something. People calling for them to be removed from matchmaking are insane, at best they might have done a secondary Ranked playlist or something.

Yeah honestly it really should have a filter just for people who don't want to deal with. However not have it filter out custom SC characters. Since they'll always have the same hitboxes and hurtboxes. Cause if you want to filter out the actual SC roster that just means you just don't want to see silly shit and you're the kind of guy who wishes Tekken didn't have any customization in ranked either cause it annoys you.

Yeah I thought they were over-patching each time but I can't really say they've gone wrong so far.

If I had to choose between this approach and, say, arcsys leaving gordeau broken in babytag for half a year, I know which side I'm on.

GURIM REAPAH

oh be nice

>However not have it filter out custom SC characters. Since they'll always have the same hitboxes and hurtboxes.
Then it should also not filter out CaS characters who are using the matching size for their character.

But really I don't think they'll add anything that would split the playerbase at this point.

she's not up for me :O

I think a lot of people would still bitch. Unless they restricted it so you can't use the Special Equipment slots you'd still have some assholes doing the three giant turtle shells thing that obscures your movements.

I was surprised at how much complaining about created characters I saw, but I wasn't really looking at the more FGC infused locations when 5 came out. I know with most casual players it's a huge draw, even if you only customize the actual characters costumes, so obviously we want to use characters in the main online mode. Lobbies are borked on Xbox as is, you can't see a room list like PC and PS4, so I pretty much only play Ranked.

The problem with that idea is that the 5 selectable sizes are not 1-to-1 with the real characters sizes for the most part. They're close but not exact. The real compromise would be automatically sizing a character to the default height, but I'm still not sure if the hit box would be exact, or if this is technologically possible as is.

But yeah, they just removed region filtering entirely from the Ranked options so they clearly want to keep the player pool healthy. If we go back to SC5 they had a few more options like the large regional lobbies, but eventually everyone just stuck to Ranked so they were unusable.

>Going through Amy's moveset
>She has this buff stacking gimmick now
>On top of that has moves where she straights up uses telepathy on her sword in certain moves now
Ok so are we STILL going to argue that Amy is not Viola somehow

People argued that?

Well I guess one retard did from what I remember

Looking on /vg/ and Reddit I think she's only up on PC, and EU PSN.

I think she was always very obviously Amy, they just never spelled it out in the very unfinished story mode of V and the only other info we got about that part of the timeline was a few blurbs from the art book so it wasn't technically confirmed.

Her announcement trailer used Viola's theme. There's no doubt anymore. Wouldn't be surprised if her story mode explains how it happens.

>you'd still have some assholes doing the three giant turtle shells thing that obscures your movements.
to be fair I haven't actually run into people doing this. It's something that could theoretically happen... but in practice, nobody actually does it.

>The problem with that idea is that the 5 selectable sizes are not 1-to-1 with the real characters sizes for the most part.
Aren't they? I thought it was only Asta and Ivy who couldn't be 100% matched.

In any case yeah, the small hitbox differences are enough to forbid them from tournament play... but online isn't really a serious environment. Lag is a way bigger issue and that's unfixable.

>Amy discovered in game files
>everyone assumes clone
>plays nothing like raph at all
This game has done really well at differentiating characters from each other

She was different from him in 4 anyway

I don't remember the details, I saw some breakdown about character sizes a while back. I might be off the mark but it seemed like it was more than just them. Overall I think it's it issue that only actually concerns 5% of the player base tops.

Personally I think I've run into two or three turtle shitlords in probably 40 hours or Ranked time. I remember running into this issue much more in SC5. People would often use the big drum ring thing to the same basic effect.

I do wish they'd figure out something to improve lag. Playing for a few hours after the update dropped I did feel like it was smoother on average even though I was now getting matched with Japanese and European players about a quarter of the time, but it's probably just placebo. Maybe the new default Prioritize 4+ Bars made the search pool a good deal bigger though. I've been playing Dead or Alive lately and it's played a lot smoother for me aside from the occasion extremely laggy person whose connection usually drops. Hiccups during most matches are pretty rare. Plus you can see their connection before accepting a match.

It's easy to balance a game youve dumbed the fuck down. I was so mad at this game. Slowest in the series, massacred moveset, small roster and 'le press x button to win'. what were they thinking?

You have no idea what you're talking about.
>Slowest in the series
By what metric? Certainly not movement speed or frame data in general.
>massacred moveset
This is easily the SC with the most useful moves per character. SC2 technically had bigger movesets, but guess what? That means nothing when only two dozen moves at the absolute most are useful.
>small roster
True, but it also has the best character variety of any game in the series, and more than most other fighters.
>le press x button to win
???
