unknown, hazama has his body back though

I was honestly expecting them to make some changes to
---Ragna---
or something because how of BBCP ended but from all the CF stuff I've seen so far
----he----
looks the exact same. I guess not even the
main character
of the game can get the Noel treatment!

Why do I love playing Vega the most? -_-
I'm gonna have to eat crow and admit he's pretty cool. Between him and Mika, they're by far the characters I enjoyed the most in SFV(including first beta characters).

That being said, is there anything he can do to deal with throw tick Mika's on wake up? Dude is too honest.

so nice of capcom to allow p2 dummy control and have a good chunk of downtime. cracked out offline
Most of my play time with the game have been offline vs, this beta have been amazing thanks to the shitty match making.

Did you try the DS for Windows thing I mentioned before?

Edit: Oh wait, FC4 or the PS3 stick nm

I finally got my FC4 to work via Joy2Key. Really hope that Capcom thinks about enabling better controller support for the PC release. There is no reason just to do Xinput, and no real keyboard support for a PC release. Even if it is a fighting game.

EX Barcelona loses to command grabs from Mika. The EX version of his new claw attack seems to have some invincibility frames. Aerials go right through him. Try the EX claw (qcb.pp) and see if that works. Might be a good non-corner wakeup option in general. EX Roll is projectile invincible.

Or just jump.

Isn't that today? How can you still be undecided, lol. Is it next to your house?
I live 40 mins away. :p

You live on the East Coast?
I live on both coasts. I'm just lazy and never go to events.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed I might get word back from someone about another power plant. There are a couple of openings in Florida around tampa in St Petersburg and that'd put me smack in the middle of about any fighting game scene I could want with majors to travel to in Orlando. Loved me some CEO and CEOtaku so it'd be a blast to move that way. Fingers crossed...I'm tired of WV. We have nothing out here.

Good luck to you, friend.

Has Japanese culture just actively gotten worse with this stuff over the past two decades, or are we just more aware of it today?

A bit of both. They've definitely gotten worse but we're also a lot more aware. I mean, it's been around but it's a lot more brazen, pandering, and generally in your face nowadays. The number of shows that could almost be porn is staggering. Even the suggestive stuff has gotten more intense. Games have been the same as well but due to tech, it didn't really go crazy until recently.

SFV beta is a ton of fun. I'm glad with how it turned out. I got to play only a bit of the first beta, so this is refreshing. Matchmaking got FIXED last night, like hard. Makes me glad that we had a beta in the first place.

You have doodles of
dicks
everywhere there

;_;
I had to stop doing serious work on my breaks because everything would grow a dick on it by the time I'd get back after heading back out. One picture grew 3! And this one time I wasn't even doing concept work and just did a highly detailed image of Sabretooth. Had all the shading and everything and I notice I had some linework screwed up in an eyebrow that was laid out wrong...thats when I notice it wasn't a mistake but another god damned dick drawn on my stuff! It was like the "Where's Waldo" of cock hidden in that eyebrow!

I can only do speed sketches and silhouette stuff on break and even then I need to hide it damned well or keep it in a pocket sized notepad and roll the dice on it surviving my next trip through the equipment on the floor when I go back out with it.

It ain't easy up here in WV at this plant being a gamer doing art and design notes on break. Truck nuts as far as the eye can see on our parking lot. The usual greeting is for folks to look at you and scream "COCK!" every time they see each other, and I've seen more dudes face fucked while leaning back in their seats than I can count.

Hire me Florida...I can't take much more of this place. I wanna live where theres fighting games and less rednecks.

There definitely has been a handful of those this year starting in the Winter. Even the popular adaptations like Food Wars is like pushing it because of the artist's profile, lol.

At least GATE is tasteful, I think? Hope? :p

The artist for Food Wars used to draw porn.

If you're looking for fewer rednecks in Florida...

It can't be worse than WV. If nothing else the area is surrounded by good gaming scenes and its got a high population diversity and its a swing state which means more than one kind of opinion and viewpoint exists out there. The area I live in is the land that civilization forgot on top of a mountain. I know I'd at least feel better if the area I lived in didn't treat seeing a minority like spotting a rare pokemon and spout racial/sexual slurs every 2 seconds. Fuck this place.

To be fair I lived in southern WV for 10 years and it was fine, just boring. I worked at another power plant in KY and it was totally different in atmosphere. I worked in a chemical plant in Charleston and again it was very different. This area though...I've never seen anything like it and I grew up in a trailer in the woods surrounded by the stuff you try to avoid. This area is VERY insular and very aggressive and crass. I'll be happy when I can leave it for a better area with more things suited to my interests and people who aren't still stuck in highschool locker room mentality their whole life.

On Karin, she's definitely gonna need more than just the mix-ups in the final game. They're easy to figure out. What I would is for her to be able to convert off the right reads or conditioning. Letting her get st.mp after hitting a qcb+p or qck+mk on counter would be cool for example.

Edit: Meant for Beta thread but works here too lol.

I'm wondering if Capcom wants Karin players to get into V trigger mode to get access to the rekkas as soon as possible.

It takes no time at all so probably.

She's got great mix ups even without the rekka follow ups. I've got a lot of mileage out of a blocked cr. mk into QCB LP, especially as you can cancel that into super.

Her pressure outside of VT scares me. So many frame traps it seems.

Lol, exactly.

I don't get the use of her up+punch followup after QCB+P. I would've liked if the frame advantage on it would setup for a nice tick throw. Because then the followup would at least make a little more sense on beating throw techs. But since up and down followups can be defended with down-back, it's just a little odd.

Other than that, my other main complaint is her V Trigger. Feels like they're a bit scared on making it too good. Maybe it's because she can build V gauge in every BnB that doesn't involve lights, but I'd like it to be a little more threatening on block.

Overall, I'm liking her most. I enjoyed using her at SCR a lot, but with lab time, I was able to figure out a lot, especially with 2 player training mode.

I was thinking about this too. What's with the no-mixup mixup? With how kinda slowish qcb+p looks you're taking a decent risk throwing it out too.

Not in the beta myself to test things though.

Can you v-trigger activate after a qcb+p hit and get stuff?

I remember testing if any special could be canceled to V Trigger. iirc, none of her specials can.

Bwuh. I don't think she needs anymore than what she has already. Her frame traps are amazing, and her 50/50 mixups on hit off 236+KK~2P > 2MP xx 236.LK is already pushing it.

Currently, she has the most advantageous normals in the Beta. Both 5MP and 2MP are friggen kingly, and almost all of her CH buttons give you a cr.MK confirm at max distance. Her V-Trigger gives her safe 1-button confirms with Rekka.

Frankly, I find all of her other options superfluous. Her game can be played without any of it. With the removal of conversions off wakeup DP, the game is constantly in her favour as she's the queen of frame-trap city.
