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

I hope you're right but let's be real: Marvel by far has the most people complaining about this or that character/assist/super/whatever being too strong/weak. How coudln't it? It's a game full of unorthodox combinations and possibilities in which one-hit character kills happen with regularity. Opening the floodgates to suggestions from all these people just seems like a bad idea to me.

I do not see how can it be worse from what we saw with SF4 where tons of people made for the most part shitty or irrelevant suggestions and whined about most characters .
And far too many people, top players included still complain about the balance.
It will be the same shit.
You will have to find the few gems amongst hundreds of shitty posts and get some top players opinions and test it out.
I see nothing special in this situation that makes it worse than what already happened
 
Also, she's a sexy female spy and Gen is an old dude.

Am I misremembering or did capcom (seth killian at the time?) answer questions about why gen looked so fucked up by referring people to the upcoming Street Fighter film starring the woman from Smallville? Did I dream that?
 
Viper is not comparable to Gen, not every technical character is the same, why are there so many Vipers and few to none Gens?

Because people realized Viper was good in late Super and remained good.
People buried Gen for dead in Super and only at the end of AE/start of 2012 did they start to think he may not suck.
Far too many people still play their Super mains, especially in the US.
 
It's much the same way that although Sakura and Cammy are both obnoxious characters, Sakura's much less infuriating.

But this is comparing how technically demanding the characters are which should have nothing to do when making considerations to game balance.
 
Question, what can they do to make USF4 a less vortex hevay game? like what made 3rd strike not a vortex heay game?

Aside from parries?
Adjusting wake-ip timing with button presses, rolls,Harder/impossible to end combos in hard knockdowns that allow set-ups for 'problematic' characters.
 
Fucking dying over here at gonzo's 3 page response to Karst as to why his changes suck, but he is apparently so poverty that he doesn't have a GAF account.

oh god I just realized we've never seen both of them at the same together, fuck

I'm still wondering why I can't get this to download, I'm curious as all hell now. :lol

That's because Gen requires too much effort, a lot of people switched to Fei or Cammy (or Yun during AE). I'm completely against nerfing a character who requires so much work to be good, the only person who won tournaments with Gen is Xian. Like I said, buff the other characters, leave Gen as he is.

Technical requirements should not be parrt of balance..
Far too few people actually switched characters in AE like Yun and Fei(Yang was better btw). Japan rode the train easily since they jumped to AE from Vanilla Arcade that had like 15 characters.

Would people like a full blog write up of changes I would make to Marvel? Because I'm all hot and (theoretically) bothered right now.

Ok you guys win. After work today I'll take a break from packing/moving and get started on writing that!

Aawwww yeeeaaaah! Now I'm hyped!
 
So is this just another "so you're saying there's a chance?" situation? I mean, I assume that their license won't allow them to release additional content/characters, so how would this even work financially? They can't reasonably charge money for a balance update and there isn't any new revenue coming in from the game because everyone who would've bought it already has (and traded it back in to gamestop).

Maybe Sven was the one preventing them from patching the game!

Viscant writing about Marvel is the best.
 
I'm not even going to link all of them, but honzo is continuing to go fucking in on GAF-suggested changes lol. Someone get a mod to approve an account for him!
