Fighting Games Weekly | July 15-21 | Post-EVO Pillow Talk

If the two ultra thing ends up being true I have no problem with it.

I mentioned in the other thread I'd like to see it...provided it is optional. I think it would be quite fun and a useful training tool. But it could also be unbalanced as heck.

One option is to reduce the damage of ultras if you choose "both".

...yeah, not that one.
 
Bum about to play Alukard next I think.

This Yipes stream has been pretty good thus far, God Yipes vs. Alukard's various teams has been very entertaining.
 
He's called the game ass for a very long time lol
Same can be said for many top-level Marvel players. Them including Yipes hate it, but still love playing it and watching it. Yipes has said as such too. But the hate isn't Sanford level.

I don't think he was particularly motivated during EVO either.

Yipes going HAM on commentary right now.
 
WindZero at EVO got me interested in Jill. She has a lot of tools, but is heavily reliant on assists to get in. It makes me sad to see how little even Alukard can accomplish with her but I could see a really dedicated Jill player doing some damage in the future.

I remember talking to KaneBlue River who was talking with maximilian on thursday and KBR saying he pretty much despises marvel.

Ground game is great, somersault is stupid, MSG hyper is great and strictly speaking of mix-ups, she is one of the best.
Takes a little effort for optimal combos

Her only real problem is air space control. And that is a biggie, even if air movement is not as important as MvC2
 
Bum says he heard that there is a new KoF game in the works, and he knows details about it.

Made in 3D like SF4 he says.

EDIT: Says he saw documents about them looking for 3D animators and people for story, etc. via FB. Sounds suspect.
KOF does their animation by using 3D models first, then converting to sprites. (As does BB) So it's nothing new. They might go thr Xrd route though.
 
If they give people both ultras , they might as well make it an anniversary collection and include all versions of all characters. Because you aren't gonna make it balanced, might as well go all the way

Interesting. I did not know this.

This always sounded to me like the best way to handle "OMG MY FIGHTER HAS TO BE 2D OR ITS BAD." Also allows for a lot of flexibility and prototyping in art styles too, and of course the saved time/cost/other resources too.

I agree with this. Also retrofit SFIV versions with 2nd ultras as an option.
