Can I hug this cute girl?

Not really, it's mainly that there was no updates in like 2 or 3 years and there's no upcoming DLC to shill for so it got the cut.

Reversal edge

Same

Fairly small community I guess

It's the best game in the series by a comfortable margin, but I feel like it released at a bad time perhaps.

Was BBTAG ever big?
I know it was in evo last year because they paid for it to be and most of the advertising was about it being an evo main game.
But outside that I don't think I've ever seen it at a tournament or discussed.

No, it only has some relevance because RWBY

It got a hype reveal but adoption and retention were both tiny after its price/DLC plan was revealed.
Somehow UNIST, a several year old game, gained a big surge of popularity after being appointed as one of the main games at EVO, bunch of people flocked to it.

Anyone else think continuing blazblue was a mistake? It's only purpose was making money until GG was back.

How did unist get so popular?
Its netcode isn't very good and it doesn't seem like a big tourney game, and streams of it never seem to get a ton of viewers.

meme popularity

I wonder what is happening with Capcom fighters. SFV seems on shakey ground with the lack of updates, but it feels like more will come eventually. And Type Arcade just launched so they won't kill that out the gate. Doubt they could get the Marvel license again, people begging for Capcom Vs don't realise that doing so cuts out half the appeal and sales. New Star Gladiator here we come?

Game wasn't that good, for Blazblue, Uniel and Persona players it's too unsatisfying of a game. The team "broken vs broken" meme should end with this game, if people wan't MvC they MvC, give us a fucking good 1v1 airdasher. I feel like this is the reason people play Uniel so much even if it's "only" a decent game.

Retard, everyone is cautious now for good reason. Remember what happened with SFV? 5K entrants year one, less than half of that the following year.

user, I...

I'm absolutely baffled at UNIST getting, well, anywhere, but I'm not complaining.

Not enough room for it on mainstage since UNIST, DBFZ and BBTAG are already there to represent anime games.

Tournament player retention rate is high for UNIST.

That's why it was considered in the first place.

Man I wonder how high the numbers for Ultimate will be, and also the % of its userbase that will be registering to at least 1 of the other games

I imagine some people will want to try the new SamSho so a good portion of Smashers will probably give that a go.

Some random dude rushed the stage to play Chris G in Marvel 3 in Bo3. Chris had no idea who he was and just shook his hand awkwardly, Justin laughed in the background.

Surprisingly security didn't bumrush him to the floor and just escorted him out of the arena.

He is now known as the Ghost of Marvel 3 because of Thuggery and being that it was Marvel 3's last year at EVO.

I registered for SamSho and Smash. But I'm self conscious about goi g 0-2 in Smash. Should I keep my registration?

So it’s accurate to the anime? Who knew

Why even register if you doubt you could beat a single person?

I agree with everything in this image, having played most of those games and Soul Calibur 2 being my favorite fighting game ever.
SC6 is an abortion and the fact that I don't even have to try to win with Cervantes is shameful and totally kills my love for the epic pirate man of hard inputs.

Fighterz is a fucking meme game with no neutral and a well timed low becomes a 70% hp combo with 4 bars and 2 assists which is fucking ridiculous.

Tekken is good, it will always be good.

Street Fighter has been dead for years and the only ones keeping it zombie mode are the nostalgia fags and people that eat depending of how many tournaments they win.

If you're paying to go you may as well play more than one game. Enter another for fun

Guilty Gear's likely going to have a new game announced this year and they haven't done any kind of update to it in over a year now. I prefer it those other games, but it's fine to set it aside for now, especially when UNIST has never been on the mainstage before.

This guy gets it.

Dragonball characters barely have fighting styles, is just fast punches and kicks

Attached: 1529936351386.png (409x409, 88K)

Interestingly enough Mr. Wiz announced that Ultimate broke the 1000 player count for early bird which is a new record. This probably means there is still a ton more to register for EVO so the rankings can fluctuate, though Smash will probably stay at top.

Id enter 3 at most or you'll be running all over the place. Trust me I made mistakes like that the previous years.

season 2 has been a disaster and killed all hype for the game

>jiren, the most boring villain in the entire franchise
>videl, a "just okay" edition
>another goku
>another goku fusion
>another broly
>MYSTERY

Most of the sales came from casuals who wanted to play dress up more than play the game. FGC only view it as a side game. Plus no tournament support or money doesn't make the few people who play in tournaments want to learn this game. It's a really fun game tho

Think year 1 SFV broke 1k in a few days. Doubt any game will ever touch that again

Best tutorial in any not dead fighting game right now and maybe ever.

How will Capcom recover? we need a new FG or announcement of something.

MVCI is dead, SFV is highly doubtful of another season.

It's not like they can milk dbz anymore and people despise gt with a burning passion.
Also, try making different movesets for characters that literally punch, kick, throw energy blasts and fly.

I'm a little worried for this and ReLink, but mostly this. It obviously won't launch before Evo, but that still means we're at least 9 months off a release, if it comes out this year at all. Considering they've barely shown what, 5? characters means progress must be molasses speed. DBFZ is down to DLC clones, and BBTag news is slow as shit too, hope all their energy is actually going into a GG sequel and Granblue.

Daisuke was already confirmed to be working on something GG related.
So probably a new game.

Isuka 2

Absolutely based.

What made 2016 so big?

>lower skill ceiling than Melee
Last I checked people didn't need to cheat at Ultimate with defective controllers or modifying the game itself.

Toei scared off a shitton of players with them forcing all non Bandai Namco tournaments to stop hosting the game because of licensing.

Plus generally a new game tends to do worse than in its previous because it's no longer new.

Just got nerfed

Why is DB so successful despite this?

I remember it breaking overall attendance records but not 1k that early. Its stated Ultimate broke early bird numbers with over a thousand so either it wasn't that soon for SFV or Wiz has a short memory.

ASW spreading themselves too thin. A shame cause id love to see the next Persona fighting game soon.

Hella fanservice

>What made 2016 so big?
First year of SFV and I'm pretty sure that was the first Smash 4 was a Sunday Final.

I don't know how the fuck Wizard planned for pools on Friday.

They've revealed six so far with lowain being the latest. People assume ten based on what weapons are in the logo.

Attached: IMG_20190409_051011.jpg (1305x923, 165K)

I remember reading on a forum that, it was kind of local tradition specially in marvel to challenge the winner of the tournament.

Because DB is the king of anime nostalgia.

name me a fighting game where 95% of the casts moveset doesn't revolve around punching and kicking

most do fine to make the movesets interesting

Sorry, I was not clear enough.
Past the original db, there is not really a focus in martial arts anymore, hence my previous statement.
The only ones with a interesting moveset are the humans, and they all suck dick, sadly.

Yeah, you can make the argument that Vegeta is more brutal than Goku, and that big guys like 16 and Broly really fit into the grappler and brawler archetypes, but what's there besides that?

The only thing I could think of that would be original and fun would be something like Janemba being a zoner with the dimensional shit and Roshi being the joke character with a high skill requirements like Lei from Tekken.

The problem is that a lot of the characters play the exact same way. There are no true zoners, Only 1 grappler and 90% of the cast is rushdown with a button you can press to kill all neutral.

I wonder how well MK11 will do in the end, the highest entrants MK ever got are just lower than BBtag. I could see it overtaking SamSho but UNIst will probably do better in the end. There is certainly interest in the games from casuals but not competitive players.

Kek

GGXth or whatever they decide to all it will probably be announced this year, and I imagine it'll be good. I know some people worry they'll dumb it down too much, but I'm willing to wait and see how it is that they choose to simplify it because I've mostly been fine with how they've made BB and GG more accessible in the past so I have no reason to doubt them now.

Poor balance and online was a mess with utterly broken shit running wild.

I still enjoy it but there was a good period where trying to find a game was just the cube of infinite meter voldo.

Toppo would easily be the most unique major character missing
>non conventional body shape
>several grappling moves including chain grabs
>God of Destruction install that changes his gameplay

Nah.

You'll see some complaints about Xrd but that's mostly about YRC or the (usual and completely expected) shit balance. Also for some reason they added a shitload of newcomers this time and left out a lot of old favorites.

>the (usual and completely expected) shit balance
The balance isn't even half as bad as people make it out to be, you consistently see Top 8's where everybody is playing a different character, and even the ones where not everybody is playing a different character there's still a good bit of variety. People just complain about it being unbalanced because Johnny wins all the big tournaments and he's top tier, but Johnny wins those tournaments because Omito's the one playing him not because he's overpowered, if he were overpowered then you'd be seeing more than one Johnny regularly make Top 8. Him being high tier still helps of course, but the balance is nowhere near as bad as a lot of people make it out to be still.

That'd be fun to see

I don't get it, how did this game gain so much traction? Last I heard about this game was it seems it was being barely kept alive by a few autists.

What are the chances of the new GG being playable on the show floor?

Box a cute

A Boruto or One Piece fighting game would be more diverse than DBZ.

I'm pulling for you Roshifags but the mystery character is gonna be someone from GT to round out the GT pair theme for the DLC set. So you better hope for Season 3. I'm still hoping for Janemba but I don't think thats happening this season.

Lol in terms of what? SC6 has the worst stages in terms of originality and inspiration, don't even have stages like the money pit or any cool Japan stage, instead you get generic grassy cliff or desert cliff stage for half your fights and almost all of them in the Libra of Souls.

Having half your moveset locked behind Soul Charge is fucking retarded and should be like the Brave Edge system from sc5 where it enhances your moves like ex moves in SF.

RE is the most addition to the game by far, a free button that parries all lows, highs, grabs and even supers. Can only be dealt with by side stepping or using a break attack or unblockable and slows down the game immensely to enter a RPS gimmick that brings no depth to the game except for shitty cinematics.

There's almost no single player content compared to the older games, no team battle, no survival, or anything. Just arcade (no real bosses or anything you can't even fight inferno) Libra of Souls (shitty weapon master) and the story chronicals. CaS has even less pieces than SCV and reuses almost all pieces from SCV, with more restrictions as well. The races don't even add depth because there's so much limitations on them.

Online is shitty and you always get matched with people wildly below you or above you, Smaller CaS players make combos drop all the time and the game speed is tied to the player with the lowest fps. Fuck you, SC6 is your first SC game

I've been saying this for years but I'll say it again.
Bleach is the best IP to work as a fighting game, as EVERY character has different weapons and fighting styles, instals and supers that are from the show itself.
You only need to animate that shit, everything else is there.

Its better in terms of giving more defensive + retaliation options, also easier combo routes for characters who didn't have those options and lastly, ex moves are now more useful since they offer juggle state when they hit and you can keep a combo going with assists or even no assist for extra damage.

But the balance is kinda fucked like before. Top tiers are still top, bottom tiers are still bottom. This is the main reason.

I wonder how law would look like in a fighting game

Oh well i'll take it. Looks neat.

Mortal Kombat and Samurai Shodown were always secret rivals. In 2019, they're directly competing against each other again like in 1993. Almost same release dates as then as well. Spring 1993, Summer 1993.

I told you fags, the next MK after this will be the end of its boom. Even nrs fanboys are slowly showing disappointment. (only 2 variations per char, covered up females bias, rushed out gameplay, slow boring combos).

testyourmight.com/threads/mk11-will-launch-with-2-variations-per-character-for-competitive-play.68844/

>In 2019, they're directly competing against each other again like in 1993.
They really aren't. The games aren't even appealing to the same crowd and no one would deny that MK will far outsell every other fighter. Both just have blood

Will we ever get another Killer Instinct? Will it stay xbox console exclusive?

DBFZ's Online is actual fucking trash.
From release to current times, you only see 3-4 characters out of a roster of 20-something.

That says a lot about balance in this game.
Oh, and Bardock still exists, which I'm grateful about me leaving in time before his release.

Who else here gets snacks and watches everything on Sunday? I could have fun watching any fighting game. I just admire the skill involved. These last few Evo Sundays have been fun watching from the East coast. Nothing like waking up late and staying up late for a whole day of fightan. And sometimes the Evo games go on sale and I pick up one I didn't have just because the finals were so exciting.

With Filia it would end up taking up two slots.

God I want to fuck Hisako

Samwai is more OG than KoF. and KoF xiv, though I personally like the game, has crap graphics so no one except the heads wanna look at or play it. Therefore, they think it isn't more deserving.

start playing

those animations are beyond horrible

you're gonna hate hearing this, but the literally only consistent way to get good at fighting games is to play them a lot. There's no real strategy guide or anything, just pure effort.

Play something easy to gert into like Tekken or SF.
Then, move over to what suits your playstyle or out of preference.

Do you like quick, responsive combat and you consume cocaine? Guilty Gear

Do you like weapons, are you into history and like the sound of metal clashing aswell as parrying the shit out of people? Soul Calibur

Do you like gore, value graphics and love asian themed games? MK11

Do you just want to have a lot of fun and learn actual mechanics while playing? Skullgirls

fighterz hailed as a masterpeice and wont even last 10% of the time melee did. Best part is if melee didnt need CRT's it would be around as top 3 fighting games for another decade. Kek

Your main is my cock sleeve

Nobody thinks or thought that fighterz is a masterpiece, it was just the funny alternative to functions vs functions: infinite. The game itself is boring garbage once the brand and newness wore off

I've seen her naked

It was hailed as a masterpiece by clueless bloggers and journos.
We all knew it was going to be shit when the hype faded.

>going in like a retard is the actual strategy to win

not on v but a lot of fighting game communites hyped up fighterz as a masterpeice for sure.

Oh fuck off, No one is hailing that as a masterpiece.

The only reason Melee still exists is because autists were mad that it Brawl didn't play like Melee.

Gotta wait for Broly(Canon)

there was a lot of hype yeah, but by the first online demo people had issues with the game

Your main is a slut who lets everybody main her and UNGA BUNGA her buttons.

I'm sure most were memeing to take Capcom out of the throne after they shat the bed with SFV and Infinite

Give me one source that's hailing Fighterz as a masterpiece that isn't in the 6 month honeymoon window.

Pretty based

Aris doesn't like any of the games you described

>>a low confirms into a half hp combo
I actually dont mind this, it's a 3v3 so it would get pretty long if combos didn't do a sizable amount of damage. The rest i agree with though.

cope more. When will autist relize melee is the greatest fighting game of all time

who knew charaters people liked + easy visabilty+ fast freeform combos = Fun to watch and play at a competive level

Melee is never coming back to evo sorry

It was Shueisha's fault. Harada fixed it but yeah it scared everyone away

Yeah, thing is we have characters that don't have any low options and characters that have dashing lows with priority.

Imagine which are played time and time again and whic are left there collecting dust.

Also, it's a rushdown heavy game, so every match devolves into "who hit first".

thats not fair user, 6 months was 2/3rd of its lifespan

Melty Blood wasn't on the roster to begin with.

It was the largest anime along with Naruto and Pokemon in the US. A lot of people grew up watching DB and they are now blinded by nostalgia. DB fans can't accept that their series is shit so they just eat it up, including Super which is one of the worst things I've ever watched.

That would have been great. The game we got is fucking trash and I’m glad I rented it for a buck before wasting my money on it. Not even Kaiba being DLC has been enough for me to actually buy a copy.

Does the FGC hate Smash that much? I’m not too familiar with how they view Smash Bros. Or is just because the community is like a malignant rumor?

if you read the meleefags post in this thread you will see why the fgc hates smash

Yeeah. Some care about the outfits, some don't. NRS fanbase is made up of casuals anyway, even the pros are scrubs.

I'll agree about fatigue, although there're a plethora of factors at play:
>People are sick of the nrs cycle of patching and listening to the scrubbiest of the scrubs.
>The community is finally realizing most its heroes are (Perfect Legend, Tom Brady, Tekken Master) are wack and that mkservertrash guy was right about them.
>People are tired of investing in a game that all the other players drop within a year and a half.
>And people are sick of the cycle of hype: BEST MKINJ EVER! GONNA STICK WIDDIT THIS TIME! SO BALANCED! SHIT THIS IS SO BROKEN! PATCH! BORED, DROPPED. NEW TRAILER! BEST MK EVER!

This. It doesn't matter that there are few top tiers when the top tiers allow for so much expression

>Giving a shit about any kind of fanbase

I feel like they would be more likely to do it at ArcRevo because Guilty Gear will actually be played there, more people will watch ArcRevo if they think there'll be an announcement, and I feel like announcing a new Guilty Gear in the middle of a world tour for the current Guilty Gear would just make people overlook Rev 2 and just want news about the new one. Seems more appropriate to announce the new game once the world tour with Rev 2 is over.

They have counted wrong or something, MK is the hypest fighter this year and is that low? Nice try weebs. Fuck you people are annoying.

Everything about Tom Brady is gold, absolute legend uininstalled and reinstalled MKX to his ps4 at least 100 times. I was really hoping MK11 would be saved for next gen but it seems like every 2 years isn't stopping any time soon and that is easily the biggest detriment to NRS games. The studio can't help it either since WB owns everything midway did, if they want to go to another publisher they'd have to make an original IP

The fuck you talking about? Fighterz came out in January of last year. It's been a year and 2 months since the game came out.

hype for broly moviecoming out-broly movie

that whole area was nothig but db dick sucking, again why you gotta be so spastic about this?

>Everything about Tom Brady is gold
Yeh. Best bit was when he stole 1000s of dollars from a fan, then ducked him and the time he lost online, so broke his monitor while his baby is crying in the background LAMAO. Absolute legend of being shit and never winning a major for games he tested pre-release.

>The studio can't help it either since WB owns everything midway did,
Proof WB is forcing them? Reminds me of the Burkha Kombat thing. Funny that every good move NRS makes is "praise Boon", but every bad one is "WB forced them".

Since the discovery of cancels, the whole fighting game genre has been shaped into a kusoge direction of "happy accidents" and not clear design choices purposefully never addressed in the attempt to not break the illusion from the fans perspective that these elements were genuinely intended. Mistakes that swayed the original vision of a 1v1 player experience over mechanical non-sense that was good to nothing other than making your ego grow.
The whole genre got immersed in this... BLASPHEMY. From staying further and further away from a pure 1v1 fighting game experience, the community accepted bad design choices under the label of "tech" and made rules around them. We started appreciating and praising shit instead of condemning it, and now said kusogery became norm.
Demons were born from this dark era. Marvel players, Anime players. All merged from this unfathomable yet persisting dilemma of letting "happy accidents" overcome the creative vision behind what were originally supposed to be FIGHTING games.

But do not fret, my dear friends. Because one day The Big Reset will hit all of us. One day people will realize that the genre has been erected on the top of mountains of mistakes, and the same people will come to the conclusion that the genre has being compromised by poor malicious intent. And when that day will come, we'll finally embrace the genre for what it was truly meant to be.

Go onto any melee forum, youtube video, stream, and say melee isn't a fighting game. You'll get bombarded by neckbeard manchildren who come at you with the shining force of a thousand suns. Meleefags HATE when people talk shit on their game, which is why they are disrespected in the FGC. If they just learned how to deal with shittalk, people wouldn't give them so much shit. Not to mention melee players don't even attempt to splash into other FGC's. A lot of melee players say they don't care about other fighting games, and yet they try so hard to be accepted by the larger FGC. The game itself isn't really an issue. It's the community.

Why does SamSho look like shit?

This guy speaks the truth.

I'm not being spastic about it. I just wondering where are you getting information where people/journos said DBFZ was masterpiece when no one said it was.

As far as character designs, pretty sure WB isn't forcing them to do anything besides generic suit "make hip characters modern players can relate to" decisions which led to Kombat Kids. I'm only referring to how fast they churn out games because two years is way too short a lifespan for fighters, they have to be on a contract, especially since characters in injustice are sometimes based on an upcoming DC film (Deadshot and Harley resembling their Suicide Squad film versions) or have DLC characters as advertisement (Zodd and Enchantress)

ignores the rest to nitpick an extreamly small detail. kek. I said melee had Retards but for the FGC to pretend they don't is 100% seething

I don’t think people realize just how many people register late. The more scrub friendly games like MK and DBFZ will be much higher right before registration ends.

It is dead for a good reason. It is an awful game to get good at and the majority of the cast is annoying as fuck to deal with.

Assists recover to fast and finding the gaps in the pressure machine d fight is also. All of this could have been avoided if they added a fucking push back on block but every fucking move has shit loads of blockstun. It could have been a good game but they did everything wrong.

The game is dead due to the tournament hosting fiasco. Whoever made that decision was a fucking retard that killed the scene.

People are shitting on you but you are right. Most of these games are dead or have no hype besides a few blind fan boys. Only good thing coming out recently is the new sansho and maybe the new GG that is in the works but arc sys is too incompetent and there's no way the new GG will be good. I bet they will even keep danger time. Grand Blue Versus will sell but as dbfz the player base will drop 99% after release.

Good response. And I can concede to that. The drama starts when nrs boys try to use that as a reason why their games die. That isn't it. One of the many reasons nullifying that reason is they start dropping the current game as soon as the new one is revealed.

People keep making excuses but DBFZ just doesn't have a lot of depth. Every team is rushdown, there's no footsies or zoning. It's not a game you would wanna play multiple years at Evo. Next year it's gone for sure and we'll be better off without it.

They didnt realease new characters fast enough. Theres a million gokus and vagetas

It's called patience, you gorilla.

The 2 tournament variations instead of customs didn't help. Means we have no idea what the game will end up being like, but there is a large possibility of fun stuff being out.

...

That's not too unlikely. FighterZ may be a bland, shitty game with no where to go but down. But it sure does fucking enthrall low IQ stream monsters that don't even play games.

I really don't know why they don't make an Evo Classic at this point.
Marvel 2, ST, and Melee alone would be enough, but you could also have UMvC3, 3rd Strike, CvS2, Tekken 3...
There's quite a lot to draw from.

is the match that got people upset about puff?

>I really don't know why they don't make an Evo Classic at this point.
Cause side tournaments have always been a thing? All those games are being played there, apart from tekken 3 because no one is interested in doing so.

says the faggot that didn't even give the game a chance past the first few weeks spouting retarded shit that just isn't true

>name me a fighting game where 95% of the casts moveset doesn't revolve around punching and kicking
Darkstalkers

>MK already losing steam before it even comes out
Did toning down the sexuality really kill it that much?

I thought it was really boring, half the matches were just the same 20 hit combo into the same supers over and over again

Set in stone tournament variations killed a lot of hype competitively, most comp players wanted to have custom variations.

I think that there's enough interest for there to be a fully fledged 2nd event, though. Particularly now that Melee has been amputated.

you can't say that shit when characters like hit and frieza are in the game

>Namcucks and Arc Sissies assblasted that everyone now realized FighterZ was a shitty meme when the hype died down so fast.

>I think that there's enough interest
You'd be wrong then, cause those games always get considerably less entrants. These games aren't hidden, they have side tournaments at every event you go to. Old games EVO would be nothing special cause regular EVO already has that.

when will Catherine finally take the main stage?

Yes

2 was also good, but it had
1) way worse balance
2) worse character variety
3) only a tiny fraction of each character's moveset was actually useful

>Lol in terms of what
Actual gameplay; see above

>Having half your moveset locked behind Soul Charge is fucking retarded
First, it's not anywhere even close to half your moveset. Second, SC has never, ever had a problem with not having enough moves; its problem has been that there were so many moves, it was difficult to balance them all and not have a ton of them just be dead weight. In light of that, having maybe ~5-6 moves per character locked behind SC is fine; it gives devs the flexibility to have some interesting but overtuned moved on each character. SC6 easily has the largest number of useful moves per character thanks to this, balance patches, and lethal hits.

RE succeeds at what it tries to be; a defensive crutch for new players unfamiliar with the game's many high/low strings to deal with unga brainless offense, while dropping significantly in usefulness at higher levels. You can blow it up the ways you mentioned, and also by using RE-safe moves, dropping strings early, or delaying hits. I agree that the animation takes too long to play out, but that just leaves the mechanic as a minor annoyance. It got nerfed last patch too.

On the flip side, lethal hits are the best new mechanic since guard impact.

>There's almost no single player content compared to the older games
It has the second best SP in the series, behind only SC3.

>Smaller CaS players make combos drop all the time
So do people using talim or Amy. Time to ban them I guess. Also SC6's combos usually work on any character regardless of size; the CaS issue is overblown.

>Fuck you, SC6 is your first SC game
Certainly not. I actually play competitively though, which you clearly do not.

tbf for 90% of the games lifespan those 2 were dogshit and you never saw them outside of pools. Hit became irrelevant once SonicFox dropped him.

>Darkstalkers
>95% of not punching and kicking
You never played the games at all and you're just one of the many fapboys that only played Skullcunts aren't you?

I truly believe entrants are low because they are side events.
Aside from Melee. Melee had declining entrants, but they were still quite high.

The Catherine tourney was nuts as all hell.

UNIst has been a side game for most of its life, but growing interest pushed it up to main stage at events. If there is interest being a side game doesn't stop anything, just means a lower entrance fee. If a TO sees a game constantly doing amazing they bump it up. The clamour for an old evo doesn't exist cause every gets there fill at any event they go to.

I'm really shocked Mortal Kombat is so low. They usually have very good numbers for their first year, its the the second year where the massive decrease in numbers occur.

>and a new Metal Slug
Was that in the China conference too? I only heard about KoF

>They usually have very good numbers for their first year
Highest was 1,100, so high but nothing incredibly considering what games have done in the past few years. Other games also have a more world wide appeal, MK doesn't even get released in Japan so no players travelling from there for MK.

>even more drills

accurate reflection of the source material though, literally goku is ever the only focus, he has so many entries because he is the only thing that matters in the manga/anime. This is probably why toriyama wanted to move away from goku but here we are now

Wouldn't MK look like a completely different game released in Japan, with how hard they are on gore?

Because it's the new age of twitter and discord people thinking they're funny

There's still kicks and punches with most of them you moron.

Don’t bother man. Remember where you’re at. A shitposting thread about fighting games in general on Yea Forums. People only pretend to play anything here

>Best Tutorial
>Expects you to know how to Rekka with Hyde perfectly without explaining it

Yeah sure okay.

It has the notation for the delay
right
fucking
there
It even shows you if you replay the challenge. Are you fucking daft?

Yes I am, why else do you think I was going through the tutorial?

Then why are you complaining about something not explaining anything when it literally shows you
>delay this
In the notations

>Ultimate instead of Melee

This is a fucking joke, right?
Ultimate is a party game, not a serious fighter...

Because I didn't know the delay timing. All it gives is a delay notation and I didn't even know that was the notation for delay. I sat there literally for almost an hour playing "guess the timing" until I dropped the speed to 50% and brute forced the timing from there.

Now, if it said "delay x frames" maybe I would have caught on faster as to when I should do the inputs

Character balance is overrated. Remember that SF5 has supposedly a better balance than ST. Doesn't mean shit if the game is bad and that's what SC6 is.

Out of all those games which one is the most competent? I kinda have my eyes on UNIST i haven't played it but it looks interesting and i have only heard good things about it. I also really love 2D sprites on 3D backgrounds.

>competent
Elaborate

Meleefag posts are bait posts but serious.

Honestly? Despite it being a great game, it wasn’t able to break its stigma of being that half baked casual magnet title its known for. They tried to make everyone happy to the best of their abilities with the clearly small budget they had and seemed to work out ok for them considering this was the third best selling in the series behind sc2 and sc4. However it wasn’t enough to pull in new genuine players in the competitive aspect. As in the players that’ll stick around for longer than a month and there wasn’t a lot for them to be convinced by and stay. Cause I remember when the game was out all I ever saw on streams was tekkenfags bitching. Which they’ll do anyway but they were the majority and nobody shut them the fuck up. That does effect people’s perspective. My big problem is the casual lobby system which is ass in Tekken 7 too, but at least T7 has a very engaging rank mode. SC6 does not. So it’s hard for me to come back to it as often as I would like since I don’t want to play eternal king of the hill casuals with 1 and done games or really have a great time chipping away at a ranked mode that really doesn’t feel you have nothing to lose ever since you hardly lose enough points for it to ever matter when you lose. So ranked feels like a random casual select while the actual casuals are archaic design. I always ask them to update the casual lobbies and make them like Xrd Sign at the very least.

Getting off on a tangent there, but I hope if we do get a SC7 they focus on polishing the shit out of the gameplay. Really focus on the competitive aspect of it this time while not alienating the casuals, cause they just want the characters they know, cas and a fun couple modes to fuck around in. Not a whole lot. This really all comes down to bamco’s side of things cause they hate sc for some reason and if they give it the same amount of budget, time and support as Tekken, well then I think the game can really flourish.

Do any games have delay x frames shown like that?

MKX had some slight revival when IJ2 was the current game, but I dont really know what became of that. I think it did have more players than IJ2 at last years Combo Breaker or some other somewhat big tournament but I could be wrong, basically whenever that started is when NRS fanbase realized 2 years was too short for fighting games, hopefully NRS and WB listens but I guess we'll see.

Still goes to show so long as a scene is willing to the support a game, it doesn't matter if the shiny new toy is released.

>delay x frames
If it said that, you would say "How am I supposed to know how long that is" because you're retarded.

Uhh, the game isn't shitty?

Character balance is bad if it comes at the expense of character variety. That was the case for SFV, but SC6's roster is more varied and unique than it's ever been.

And what exactly constitutes as shitty to you? UNIST is the most complete release the series has gotten, has no DLC aside from extra colors and character announcer packs until probably EVO, and has a fantastic mission and tutorial system. The game itself is fairly well balanced compared to most games since there aren't "too" many polarizing match-ups and many characters in its 20 character cast have frequently made it to tournament finals.

I already said I was bad at fighting games. I'm trying to learn and found a specific issue I had with the tutorial that required inherent knowledge that I was lacking. I don't know what else to tell you.

Alright i see, i guess UNIST is the best huh?

That's the latest version so yeah,.

You're going to hate the rest of the combos since every character has delaying involved.

>how do I get into
just play
>how do I git gud
you gotta practice, practice practice practice, it's the only way to get better.

Because unist is a good game but tons of people slept on it. Bbtag fucking sucks should have bbcf on there instead or xrd

Also
>Be prepared to lose online/in locals for your first 1000 matches and to deal with the psychological and/or mental damage that may cause. After the hazing is complete, you can now start enjoying fighting games.

UNIST
SC6
tekken, though it's hard to get into
SFV, though it's kind of sterile

Well, RIP DBFZ. Guess we'll have to wait for DBFZ Xrd 2 Ultimate

>Never went through this
Feels good.

Why is Smash there?

I believe it's because of the entrants and the viewership they will get for ultimate being a new game so I suppose they preferred to have one smash game where most of the community will enter, than have 2 that will divide the stuff unnecessarily (and there's also the CRT’s subject)

Having said that, I think melee would have been the better choice talking as a spectator because ultimate is boring to watch after some time, but I don't think Evo cares about that

the fgc views smash as a whore on the street that attracts business outside a struggling old hotel which used to be booming before comfort inns and best westerns came to town

Where is Melee?

because the game is garbage and boring to watch
duh

>babytag instead of GG
Fucking arcsys

CRTs have been useless for Melee years but people just refuse to find a tv/monitor with like 8ms which is like half a frame of delay then there's GC Video Plug n Play thingy
