Wow, beautiful.

I wish Capcom would get away from onlookers and animals in the stage backgrounds. I just want beautiful scenery as a backdrop for my epic martial arts match. I know it's kind of a tradition to have "streetside" levels, but has anyone really liked them? Do people like a stage where bikers are revving their cycle, people are in phone booths, or kids are playing in the water? Does that add something? It detracts for me. I want the open area where two godlike warriors are coming to fists. Nothing more, nothing less.

A New Zealand character could very well be a Maori tribe fighter. It doesn't necessarily have to be a white guy.

It will be a LOTR cosplayer, and you will like it.

Edit: Maori tribe turns up cool results. Love the face paint idea.
 
Thinking about selling my current stick to upgrade to a TE2 PS4 stick.

How much can I expect to get for a dual-modded PS3 Madcatz TE1? The OG red faceplate model.

Depends on condition of case, stick and buttons.
However if it's dual modded and in great condition, I would sell it at a good price. Don't undersell and hold out.

My only pool that changed and I'm facing someone named Nicalrant instead of Huber (who I learned is one of the socal players). I also now have a japanese player in my pool called Esuta, any info on him?

Esuta is the Top 8 SFxT player from Japan.

I like the Vega stage from SF2.

Actually I like it for the cage in the background that Vega can climb on to.

Lol, I notice that since I'm on my phone, I didn't have for what game I'm talking about in my post, the pool is for Xrd. So I assume he probably is good at that game too. Too bad, when I try to youtube his name + xrd only really sfxt shows up.

Btw you are northwest right? Do you know someone named Leviathan? I googled the name and I can only find the NWM bracket where he lost to ChrisG in usf4. Unless this is someone else, is he part of your scene?

The buttons are good, and the stick was replaced about halfway through its lifetime. The case itself has minor wear and tear scuffing on the red panel but otherwise it's in great condition. Is $150 a ridiculous amount to expect?
 
SNK stages with people in the background generally look good. I don't think Street Fighter ever pulled it off as well. It got worse when they moved to 3D stages.

I don't know anyone that uses the leviathan handle myself.

Yeah, this one I can agree with, but mostly because "cage fights" are a fighting tradition, and an audience makes sense in that context. Why is Ryu brawling in the middle of the road, though?
Inb4 "Street" Fighter.

Preach.

The new background looks really rough. Needs more than just anti-aliasing but I like the colour palette. I have hope it will improve like the first stage did.

Also seems that one SFV roster rumour is debunked as it predicted more characters for the upcoming beta. What excites me is the mention of their content delivery system. They can do really cool things if they can inject stuff in and out of the game fast. You can do holiday costumes/weather effects/events, etc.
 
Lets temper our expectations, the new character is probably gonna suck. It will probably be Birdie's cousin or something.

Generally speaking, the only reason I like Persona is because there's a character I like in it, Ken and Koromaru. I was quite salty about the first version of the game because I felt it was pretty poorly thought out in regards to character design. It's still kind of poor but the balancing and changes has kind of made it a little better through the life span of the game. Still plenty of dumb in it, i.e. Narukami, but it's fun to play now.

With Marvel, I don't find it fun. I don't like that it's a game that focuses so much on 1 touch kills, I don't like that I can't whatever team I enjoy without having the synergy for 1TK, I don't like having a comeback factor that basically means that whatever I earned can go poof in an instant. I also don't really find the cast list all that interesting, definitely more so when I factor in the character tiers.

If I had to compare them directly, I like the neutral, game systems, and combos in Persona way more than I do in Marvel. The only thing I'd say Marvel has in it's favor is that it's a team game but for the aforementioned reasons, it goes to waste.

Mind you, I love Marvel 2 and heavily enjoyed TvC. So it's not like I don't enjoy the VS setup but Marvel 3 basically has nothing I enjoyed about the previous games.

By the way,thank you for this.

There's a player here in Hawaii that uses the Leviathan handle.

It would be fine if they used any degree of subtlety, but they seem obsessed with making background characters wave their arms all over the place and trip over themselves, and it just looks bizarre.

Interesting, is his name
james wang
? I dunno if I should be asking that though since that might be too private for some people but I assume it's okay because everyone has their full name in the bracket, even my rather unorthodox name.

Also wow, they updated T7 brackets again! Not facing Mr. Naps first round anymore...it's a japanese player called tbp tsubapy. Never heard of him but I assume I'm still in trouble lol

Either way I'm gonna try to have fun. Not being sarcastic, but the best way to gain experience is firsthand.
 
Onlookers definitely add to the "Street Fighter" atmosphere, but they do distract me at times. Some of the stages in IV really got wild with the audience action.

Old Temple was really peaceful and got me pumped to fight.

Yeah. But a lot of devs seem obsessed with filling their games with all sorts of details nowadays, fitting or otherwise.
