Ok, let's try some Mika.

I really like Karin and Ryu, glad they gave Ryu his shit back.

It was in Beta 1. I don't think it's changed, could be wrong.

Capcom was smart. They made actual parrying very easy compared to SFIII, but they made it more difficult to know when to parry. Like in SF3 parrying was harder, but if you did it you instantly got rewarded with a punish. Here they're easy to do, but you'll only get punishes on moves you know are good parry fodder. So they're rewarding matchup knowledge more.

That makes sense, but I hope we don't see too much stuff like the YT video posted.

The drink throw and heavy chain air grab with Birdie. So satisfying.

Chun is starting to click. Stand lk is such a good button.

No, previously you had to perform a V special and you could cancel into an VEX special.

Now even the first V special can be done without any charge so long as it is canceled from a normal. It just lopsides him further into being desperate for VT, but it is a really strong change.

Accidentally found a way to stop fight requests while in training mode.

Was showing a friend SF5 on steam with broadcast, didn't notice the stream fully saturated my connection, had search limited to 5 bar only and I didn't get any fight requests in 30min+.

 

[joe2187]

Just got double perfected because I went to training mode with Karin and had 3 seconds of play time


I need some Karin tips.

 

[Dark Ninja]

I love that Ken isn't great in this every time I go up against him I know im gonna win. I can't wait until I can actually train with some of these characters. Im getting by on footsies and fundamentals.

St.MK and Qcb+kick are your best friends.

 

[SanguineShark]

Used to be decent at fighting games a long time ago(10+ years). Since then I've only really played Wii U Smash and did well, but I know this is a different beast altogether. I'd love to get into sf, but wonder if I'd get destroyed ... is this more casual friendly than the last?

Yeah, don't stream on wifi.

 

[Omnistalgic]

So does Ken suck now? Seems like all the fun stuff is gone...like wtf is going on here? I mean I'm winning with him, but having really boring time doing it

Yes, it's more casual friendly. Well, the mechanics are easier but that doesn't mean you won't get your butt kicked because you lack fundamentals. If you're looking to get in, better now instead of later on when they might lump on more systems making the game harder to break into.

 

[Coda]

I should probably eat dinner now.

I hate Laura so much.

I'm enjoying Ken wins feel earned, I gotta out footsie and play the other person I like him a lot. He feels honest but buttons are lacking outside cmp

 

[Camp1nCarl]

Is this for real? lol



You'll get your wish when the game is out.

Sure I get that you can turn it off in the full game. I'm just saying it's not very welcoming to any new players that want to check out the beta to see if this is for them.

Your controller/stick might get cold though.

Beta isn't for them.

Oh my god I'm actually winning games regularly.

So he sucks then smh... Bout to go play Ryu, I have a decade of "honest" Ken... Was hoping he was top tier

 

[TheOGB]

Was that always there?? When did they sneak that under our noses??

 

[direct_quote]

Yah he needs his fun stuff back Combofiend pls. Give me some fun run combos and pressure..

 

[Ferrio]

Death star?

 

[TheSeks]

Don't have to worry about timing either. After the first parry all you have to do is mash to parry multihit moves.

Ryu OP. Plz Nerf.

 

[lucebuce12]

Death star?

Check out the trailer for the story mode for sfv

It's PROtagonist man

He's nowhere near as good (or fun) as he was in the second beta. Still, I'm winning with him and he's got some damn solid buttons such as cr. mp which can be hit confirmed into 2 combos depending on the distance with your opponent. I'm winning regularly, which is ironic since it's the weakest he's been throughout all of the phases.

I hate Laura so much.

I love Laura so much.

Yea I know he isn't garbage tier, but I felt his rush down was defined in the last beta, really was exciting to play, seems like another version of Ryu atm...we'll see I guess. As a Ken main actually has lowered my anticipation for the game a bit.

 

[Gbraga]

I love Laura so much.

You're a terrible person.

 

[RK9039]

It's so laggy all of a sudden.

 

[qcf x2]

Beta isn't for them.

Right. These betas are to test stuff to make sure things are functional on release, not to sell people on the game.

 

[Rocwell]

you can press start in the main menu to config the searching. you can set it to give you a prompt instead of auto-accepting. it's really nice actually.

Ooh thanks for the tip

 

[Karsticles]

"Bison changes. Feels bad:"


LOL, did you actually read that whole list?

13) During V-Trigger, if you can cancel a normal into any special, no charge is required.

That's fucking huge.

Bison players are unanimously unhappy that normal Bison keeps getting nerfs while VBison gets buffs. I don't want every game to be a race to VT so my character becomes good.

Of course you'll get destroyed. Then you'll get better.

DING DIIING

 

[OniBaka]

I don't think I lost to a Laura in this beta yet.

 

[Gr1mLock]

The fact that I havent played on pad since A2 on the saturn is starting to show.

 

[Teknopathetic]

"Bison players are unanimously unhappy that normal Bison keeps getting nerfs while VBison gets buffs. I don't want every game to be a race to VT so my character becomes good."


So increased throw stun, better anti-air hurtbox for v-skill, increased super damage, increased cr.hp damage, slightly safer v-reversal, and Non-VT Psycho blast range increase are all nerfs to normal Bison?

The changes to St.mk and HP make them slightly harder to whiff punish as well. Wow he really is getting a ton of nerfs.

Ok.

 

[Gbraga]

Ok, fuck Mika, I can't deal with struggle Mika. Karin and Ryu as much easier.

Did you think the booty came for free

 

[Garrett Hawke]

Somehow I've managed to accrue 179 LP. I don't know how.

 

[hypernima]

this is the most frustrating beta ive ever played in my LIFE.

 

[Gbraga]

Ok, I can't deal with this anymore.

Fuck this game.

I'm out.
