It's because SonicSol, aka DSP-3 aka LTG-2, plays this shit.

Whatever maybe,
They're literally taking over the entrants

It's more fun than most other FGs out right now and the learning curve and tutorials helped bring more people in. Good online also helped boost numbers.
>but muh Xrd
no one cares about the 20 Xrd players on Steam complaining that Strive doesn't play exactly like their first GG.

theres nothing great about it at all, its the worst arcsys game ever made. its just the shiny newest game, the last game of the generation and theres nothing new or shiny to play.

I've been SnK KOF VI (I'm a KOF enjoyer)enjoyed. What's good and bad about this game? Never really look into it till now.

good: graphics and netcode (1 step forward)
bad: gameplay, political pandering, censorship, gameplay, online lobbies, gameplay (3 steps backwards)
worst arcsys game ever made.

You see that red guy? He fights that blue guy, a black vampire guy, a british time guy, an old qcf guy, a gay guy and his gay shadow, a ninja guy, a backwards guy, an item guy (probably not no one plays him), a gun guy people want to remove from the game, a fan guy no one plays because he gets btfo by 3/4ths the cast, a grappler that takes half your health in one throw but still sucks, a tophat wearing tranny demon, a dolphinmancer (don't talk about her tournament in vg), a wolfkin sjw, a samurai that isn't black and has tits, my wife (summoner), LKs wife whose ring I jump over, a snazzy looking musical witch, and corner carry 2swords1dogmcgee.

it is incredibly poorly balanced and has been in its current state for SIX (6) MONTHS
its like arcsys wants it to die

SFV really did kill the genre

>gameplay
Subjective.
>political pandering
Blame the localizers.
>censorship
Not much of it at all, plus blame CERO
>online lobbies
This 100%. Those lobbies are fuck-awful.

DO. NOT. PLAY. GUILTY. GEAR. STRIVE.

Too late

You thought that was funnier than it is.

based enlightened user

Tranny game

I play +r and strive but I don't own xrd legally

Yeah they're clearly waiting for EVO to release a balance patch but Chaos and Ram need to be toned down it's ridiculous. You can't go 6 months without balance patches in the current era of gaming.

I'm still having fun with Strive but for the average joe out there, you gotta make some changes every couple months at most.

dumbed down scrub game compared to +R

>Yeah they're clearly waiting for EVO
user this will be 10 months without any balance/character/system change lmao they wont wait until EVO ends for sure unless they are that fucking retarded but its ASW so this wouldn't suprise me. Next big patch should at latest be during games 1 y anniversary so in june.

I like your post, but Millia is MY wife.

If they haven't done it yet I can't see them doing it before Evo. They would have to release it within the next two weeks but I just don't see it happening. Who knows.

Take the Type Lumina pill

Does john fate know how to design any character thats not generic person with blond hair?

Because it did SFV better than SFV did back when that game launched in 2016. While gameplay is simplified, the online is leagues better, visuals are consistent and not all over the place, didn't take two years and a revision to include launch day content.

th*y're both better than tranny queer soive

Not anymore but it's fine their gameplay is cool and the VN remake sucks anyways

>You can't go 6 months without balance patches in the current era of gaming.
DBFZ did

It's a good game, despite the shitty floor ranking system

No

It's not ranking system's fault you are stuck at 6th floor, Baiken main.

This is going to be really retarded then lol i already know people that really liked the game but recently dropped it to focus on other games and are waiting for a patch im playing less and less because of stale meta too. This will kill momentum they gained by since games release with releasing steady DLC characters and announcements. I just wonder what the fuck are they waiting so long with that patch is it going to be really big with some changes or if they really will took over half a year to just nerf/buff characters in a retarded ASW way if its second scenario then im going to lose faith in them completly especially since they already fucked up dev diaries they promised to make.

I like the idea, it just needs more floors. There's no reason for me to be on the same floor as say FAB or Sonicfox

They're probably going to do it in the summer in like June or July
Why would they have to release season 2 within the next two weeks?

For how long exactly and what did that patch after such a long time bring/changed? I never played DBFZ(or rather I did for couple of hours offline with my friend on his PS4 but I wouldn't call this playing) so I just wonder.

When has ASW never released a patch update before EVO?

>leading the herd of EVO 2022
Isn't that because Smash isn't there?

Yeah this. Apparently next story is coming this/next week and its possible they will finally release another proper developer diary because they didnt since October patch despite promising steady releases instead of just copying character bios from official site and calling this shit dev diary.

Arcsys is known for making really big changes to their games as it ages. DBZ and Xrd are almost completely different games now from when they first released.

Yeah and the game is dead as fuck because of it. GT killed that game.

They REALLY need to just make an LP system. I don't like SFV but I prefer playing that to Strive online because of how superior the LP system is to the floor system. I got Celestial week 1 of release and go back and get it every new month. That's all I'm really interested in playing. SFV I can keep grinding my LP if I really want to. I at least see some kind of improvement.

same, i was having a easy time on floor 10 but Celestial was eating me alive.

Game is deader then dead, user

Every other fighting game that would normally have more entrants (SFV, Tekken 7) is old. Strive is new.

Fighting game devs have become more and more aware of not releasing balance patches too close to major events like Evo. Although maybe I'm wrong. 2-3 months is enough time for people to adjust.

>Yeah and the game is dead as fuck because of it
Game didn't die until Labcoat. It's always had long waits in between patches even at it's fucking peak. You can't just patch a game every month that's retarded you need to make the meta develop first or else you'll wind up like GBVS.

You guys really need to learn the fact that people do not leave games unplayed because they have flaws. Games are played for their good qualities.
Strive might be a bit badly balanced and lobbies suck, but the mechanics are fun, it is easy to find other players and graphics are pretty.
Sometimes that is enough, simple as.

>Every other fighting game that would normally have more entrants (SFV, Tekken 7) is old
KOFXV is only a few months old and has less entrants than SFV a seven year old game

same crowd from smash, and they played their childrens party game for like 20 years...

I know that user I played pile of shit called SIGN during its console release but I almost never touched DBFZ thats why im asking. I mean they are apparently adding some brand new mechanics to fucking Granblue this summer too lmao.
"char and system changes" dont tell me much I though you are long time db player and would tell me what changes and if they were significant ones so game played at least little bit differently.

The game was dead way before labcoat who are you kidding. The combination of GT being retarded for nearly a year, horrible netcode, really bad balancing decisions in general made it lose so many players.

>stop hating my game because i finally only need to know two routes and three specials
ok

The biggest system change came at S3 3 years after the game came out.

Why'd they stop pitting the actual numbers next to the entrant amounts?

Believe it or not dumbed down mechanics and good graphics is a good selling combo.

Making the characters theme vocal only was a fucking huge mistake

GG accent core plus will forever have the best ost.

Has Yea Forums ever been right about this game?

It really makes no sense that floors 9 would basically be rank silver in any other game.

You're trying too hard he just asked what the game was about so I told him. You can copy it and post it on reddit if you want I don't use it.

doesn't the floor system split the playerbase even more? I'd rather have a basic point system
