I think Ryu's CA fireball should be like in Marvel vs Capcom

That's a fun idea. Maybe in V-trigger! Make it a little extra special.

Dropping Rashid for now, I love the dude but he can't punish very hard outside of the corner. Switching back to Birdie for now, until I find another alternate. Using the mixup I saw in Winterbrawl where you EX swan dive immediately after getting the command throw. Perfect distance, and perfect timing to catch a quickstand.

 

[OmegaTreeFish]

Well, I can consistently get to the mid 20s in survival with R. Mika now (4/5 tries or so today). I usually die to Ryu, Zangief, or Nash, depending on which one randomly decides to go crazy aggressive AI.

The last time I actually perfect'd Ryu for example, only to lose one or two rounds later.

I don't plan to do hard mode but it'd be nice to do normal.

My one accomplishment today was learning to use the wingless airplane for throws occasionally (uppercut -> EX wingless airplane), though my QCF's are unreliable.

Up until ryu on normal you can get away with just c.HP then hcb.k. most don't do shit but eat it over and over. Some will jump but then you can just punish that.

I did her medium first time but I think some of the character past ryu didn't fall for that and in those cases I maybe charge HK I'm to lk MP combo then jumped over with a lk cross up into either QCB.lk ot lk > MP > flying peach.

But yeah ryu is when the roid kick in and its harder to cheese. I think the cheese move worked on bison though. But I did this over a week ago so hard to remember.

Tried it no hard and got wrecked so didn't bother with that lol.

I failedy first medium survival the other day with rashid (did mika, ryu, Ken and birdie first go). I got up to ryu with a record score just doing his flying forward kick thing. Perfect after perfect. Then when I got to ryu I didn't know what to do as I havnt learned the character and he just blocked or DP me as I did it. Got to Nash I think but he wrecked me haha.

Still the survival mode is terrible. It's design is utter trash. What's wrong with just your standard survival where its endless and just gets harder. I like the spending points for bonuses though so that should stay.

Calling for nerfs and buffs less than a month in lol

The MKX thread is over yonder, guys

Its ok since its just fantasy we wont see anything for at least a year. Unless someone finds some sort of gamebreaking thing with a character.

The big beam? That'd be so out of character and totally hilarious

I remember when screenshots of Tatsunoko vs Capcom popped up and I saw that beam fireball, and I straight up said TvC was a litmus test for Marvel vs Capcom

And then two years later, taaadaaaaaa

 

[Memory]

Ran into a rage quitter. Now I don't feel bad for taunting him in the first round.
https://youtu.be/jhhCG7mpGdw

To be fair It's likely he quit because you taunted.

 

[Ucchedavāda]

Nah, if this the MK X thread we'd be discussing the already existing buffs and nerfs NRS already did because they saw a dude doing some cheap shit on a 320p niconico stream.

No kidding.
The first patch affecting gameplay in MKX was out less than a week after the game was released.

Impressive response times! The value of community feedback.

Remember when Laura was shit

I remember when Laura won the first CPT major.

Pretty impressive for a "garbage tier" character tbh

 

[BotoxAgent]

I played no one but Ryus last night.

I guess seeing Daigo get really good so fast with this character are making the scrubs realize how strong the character is with lots of potential and picking him up.

or because it's Ryu

 

[FACE]

Didn't 3rd Strike have actual buffs and debuffs from taunts? They should give the opponent an attack debuff when Zangief flex's on them.

Yes, I wish they'd bring that mechanic back.

SF3 also lets you taunt people after the round is over.

 

[Kilrogg]

To be fair It's likely he quit because you taunted.

Which reminds me: every once in a while I'll fight someone who backs away at the start of the match and taunts, kinda like a friendly "let the best man win" thing. I kinda like it to be honest. I find taunting playful at any rate and I'm not above doing it myself... Rarely though, cause I can be so bad that would actually cost me the match.

 

[BotoxAgent]

or because it's Ryu

could be but previous weeks of playing this there was such great character variety...some nights where I didn't play any shoto at all.

Hit Box Viewer has its first release that's worked for me. It's a program that draws the actual hit boxes on the screen.

More importantly it lets you KILL people with (some) taunts.

 

[cackhyena]

Been playing Ryu since beta 1. He'll continue to be my main. Nash is my secondary.

Waiting for Ibuki and Guile patiently...ish.

Ryu will always and forever be the most popular character in a SF game. He's always hit the right balance of being easy enough to play while still being good enough that you can succeed with him at a casual level.

 

[RapidCancel]

Probably just because he's Ryu... He's a basic character that's easy to get used to. Hell, I'm still just using Ryu.

The ultimate disrespect.

I also liked ending people with jabs and then punting their corpses across the screen. Post KO hits should still be a thing.

Go play Art of Fighting. Yeesh.

RIP courtesy duff. Even Vanilla SF4 had it.

 

[Sephzilla]

I will be a Ryu main until we someday get Fei Long DLC

 

[Renekton]

I want to main Laura but my skills are garbage so Ryu for now to learn the game.

 

[hamchan]

It's so easy to just jump in with Ryu instead of learning all these other characters. Other characters are for when I get bored with Ryu after 100 hours.

 

[SplitYourInfinities]

Sounds like a very unique problem, though. Especially since this netcode is designed to have no input lag.

Well, sounds like it's something in my end. The symptoms are:

- The problem happens only during online games but it's not a hardware problem since offline my inputs are always registered (i also tested with other input methods and it keeps happening).
- It's not always present, most of the times the game works fine (let's say the 85% of the games)
- It only happens with attack buttons, never had any problems with directional inputs.
- It may not happen during the whole match, but when it starts it will keep happening until the end.

I will try to reproduce it on other network during the weekend. If it still happens then it's Capcom's fault.

 

[Crab Milk Mickey]

Dhalsim's Yoga Flame being made more unsafe on block. He's the only character with a fireball that's safe on block unless you have super. Why?

Fang. Oh boy, this guy might need to be completely overhauled. Buff the amount of meter he gains and make his Nishikyu safe on hit at least.

You already messed up if you let him get that close for a Flame combo, never mind that he's at a positional disadvantage afterwards.

I can't help but scoff at the notion that F.A.N.G supposedly needs an overhaul already.

Not to mention that Birdie's EX Bullhead (QCF+Punch) is safe-ish and allows him to get in for free.

*spends a resource that significantly lower his damage potential* "gets in for free"

And that's ignoring you can just hit him out of it too.

 

[DR2K]

If we're talking about unrealistic scrub nerfs. Birdies headbutt damage can eat it.

 

[jett]

Yes, I wish they'd bring that mechanic back.

I miss the days when you could do stuff slightly after a round was over.

 

[Garrett Hawke]

Still seems kinda crazy that Alex is supposed to be coming this month and we haven't even seen a screenshot

I would've thought his design would at least be finalised by now :/

I'm more surprised they haven't rushed out a new features trailer or a trailer for Alex after the terrible reception the game has had.

Maybe they just have the poor @SFVServer guy as the only employee reading Twitter so they don't know about the reception

How do you get the Karin "ah-hahahahaha" title? Just saw someone on stream with one and I need it!

 

[Beautiful Ninja]

So the former #1 player VFM_Wolfman, who Arturo completely destroyed on stream last night and rightfully called him out for being a fraud, got deranked back down to 500 points. Some sweet Capcop justice at least.

That was even more funny than Art losing 250+ LP in one loss.

 

[Asd202]

So I've finally got my Hori Fight Commander but I'm having hard time adjusting to it from PS4 analog

Spoiler

yes I've played on analog

[OmegaTreeFish]

Mika kinda can.

I played a cammy the other day who was a lot better than me. When I was about one hit away from death I used her delayed v trigger. Then cammy KO'mika. She stood there and celebrated all cocky like..... Nadeshiko was not happy and drop kicked the shit out of her.....

I wasnt even sad I lost.

 

[LakeEarth]

I'm shocked there's no hard limit like there was in Street Fighter 4. Or if there is, it's more than twice as much!

 

[Shmuppers]

You can still kill with Mika's mic, right?

The other person doesn't animate tho :/ NSK will drop in but the other person remains static unfortunately.

Still funny though

 

[Tripon]

There is no limit. Look for LP options you can filter on replays and it shows 50,000+ as the highest.

 

[LakeEarth]

There is no limit. Look for LP options you can filter on replays and it shows 50,000+ as the highest.

I meant hard limit for how much you can lose. In Street Fighter 4, no matter how big the gap between rankings, you could only gain/lose a maximum of 128 points.

You can still kill with Mika's mic, right?

And Birdie's snot that he flicks during his idle animation.

 

[Gr1mLock]

Correct, however that's her V skill not a taunt.

 

[mbpm1]

Unless something like this happens

 

[OmegaTreeFish]

She did on my game. Cammy went flying.

If you can search other people replays mine is Genomic. It was prob a casual match and I havnt faught to many Cammy's.

i'm the same. from reading this thread i've had second thoughts, since it seems like it riles a lot of people up. if someone else is my main (rashid) and they back off at the start i'll taunt as a hello, i'll sometimes taunt at the start of a 2nd/3rd round after being bodied as a "wow, nice", taunt at the start of a game to someone who i've been given via matchmaking if we've had a good match before, etc.

RIP courtesy duff.

i do the majority of my fighting gaming with a close friend and we really, really miss this.

 

[tariniel]

I played a casual match last night with the most unique and terrible lag I've ever seen in this game to date. It was not roll back at all, it was more like SF4 style lag, where the game slowed to a crawl, inputs took 4-5+ seconds to come out, and it effected both of us (apparently), because we both immediately backed off to full screen and waited 10-15 seconds for it to fix itself/pressed jab. It didn't so I just exited the game from the task manager.

I thought rollback was designed to prevent this type of lag from happening?

Also I somehow managed to sneak into Silver last night when all the decent players weren't looking. I don't expect to stay long. Immediately after hitting silver I queue'd for casual to confirm something I suspected - that casual actual matches you based on your LP - and it seems to be true. In 5 casual matches I got mostly people 2500-4500, where as when I was at 1800 LP I'd regularly get people from 900-2000. More testing is needed but damn, learning alts gonna be even harder now.

This happened to me before. Except it was both teleporting and delay based lag
