Fighting Games

[Arjahn]

AND NOW IT'S TIME FOR RADICAL ARJAHN TALKS CHILDREN!
I really don't like modern fighting games at all any more. Combos shouldn't be a series of complicated button movements, just serieses of moves that the player has to time to string together in order to deal a lot of damage. I don't mind minor combos, like the special moves in Street Fighter 2, but now they've just gotten out of hand.
The whole idea of "SUPER MOVES!" and other kinds of massive auto-damage moves just seem stupid and pointless to me.

Ech, rant over, have horrifying humanoid popcorn.

It's Capcom wanting more money. Where is Angry Joe?

What's new? Did anyone complain when Super Street Fighter II Turbo Hyper Mega Edition came out? Yes it is as stupid but I never liked Street Fighter any why. Now let me raise my Flame Shield so you guys can tell me why I'm wrong.


Oh before I forget, I don't like Capcom, they need to release more mega man games, and pull their heads out of their asses. I think that covers it. OK. Flame Shield, Up.

If you hold a shield of flame would it not burn you?

While I'm here, I really don't like Soul Calibur V. IV was okay and III is my favorite.

If you don't know how fighting game mechanics work, then yes, it's a rip-off worthy of an angry Texan yelling at the camera. But as it stands, SF4 needs and update and I'm glad they're doing this. Characters need buffs and other characters like Seth and Cammy need nerfs. We need this update.

[Mass Distraction]

Do you guys think this stuff will be available as DLC for Arcade Edition?

Well, in that kinda way it does make sense, but in another way it doesn't make any sense either... and I say that because in a game like, for example, StarCraft. They're gonna release a new game every once in a while to fix things in the MP, but that comes together with a new SP experience too. I honestly don't know how fighting games are right now, so I can't really say what would be much of the difference here that couldn't be done with a patch of some sorts.

Maybe, but probably not. Did they come out with the new stuff for MVC3 for DLC? I don't buy Capcom games any more so I wouldn't know.

[Mass Distraction]

@Sohakmet: Fighters, at least Capcom's, do have new story added in the re-releases but since that stuff is only cosmetic in fighters it really doesn't matter anyway.

You mean the stuff that was added in UMvC? No.

But we had a free patch update. AE version 2012. Since then, it's been Cammy and Seths dominating. Now this balance patch will fix that. Yes this could be free, but instead Capcom are adding characters and a huge game update, much like SSF4 as to SF4. That being said, "drag and dropping" character files from SFxT is bullshit.

Well, that seems reasonable then. I, too, would get tired of seeing the same characters all the time.

There's a new fighter on Indiegogo that is being made by old SNK staff that worked on KoF! There's only 6 days left and they're missing 10 grand. Hopefully they make it.

Have a link and a trailer:

I already bought it a few months ago. Combos are ....fun but it feels basic at best.

I'm guessing they'll do something more with the game through patching etc if the money raiser goes well.
