i wanted to try gundam, IS, and dissidia while I was in japan but I ignored all of them not wanting to embarass myself trying to figure out how to play them with the language barrier

I went to the loketest for Gunslinger Stratos 3 the other day and the lines were decent considering GS2 is pretty dead at the moment since GS3 and Reloaded for PC are coming out soon.
You can go try playing GS2 if your center has it, not many people are playing because it's pretty dead right now until the game is out. The controls aren't difficult with the gun controllers and IR aiming.
I don't really think Dissidia is all that special but that's probably because it's the first revision of the game and it's still building up. It's fun I guess but it isn't as fulfilling as other 3D type games.
EXVS is pretty easy to get into if your game center separates the cabinets into player level blocks. Playing in a C block section for beginners to learn to play is fine and the controls are really simple. It's just movement, fuwastep, and learning neutral that is harder in Gundam since the gameplay is heavily reliant on your positioning on the map.

It's kind of hard to get an understanding of the game without actually playing it for a bit for me.
So can't really tell much from those videos, but wow being a running character on that circular stage suuuucks. Just falling through large portions of the floor like that because why not, sheesh.
The camera system could be a better too, not sure how I feel like about the opacity changing constantly on characters and objects because the view keeps getting blocked.

I haven't really seen EX characters much in competitive play; you die fast enough in LB2 without the dramatic defense drop.
Zantetsu in any groove is as stupid as 3S Chun though.

Why dont any 3D fighters have dial-a-combo or magic chains?
Gunslinger Stratos 2 Battle Arena basics
It is 4v4 team battle with gun device controllers. The two guns are light guns that help you aim while the other buttons on the gun let you jump, move, and switch lock on targets.
The left gun analog is for movement while the right is for locking on to your opponent.
Each character has a set of weapons and they serve a different purpose. The default is through dual wielding both gun controllers and using the triggers to shoot. The gun controllers are magnetic so you can combine the guns different ways to use your other weapons by either combining them side by side or on top of each other.
The game is pretty fun but EXVS is the better and more polished game. It has simpler controls and has a more depth but Gunslinger Stratos appeals to a different set of players since the audience doesn't really overlap.
It's very fuwastep heavy and you really need to rely on jump cancelling and shooting to avoid fire from your other opponents because your life is relatively lower compared to say Gundam. The goal is basically to time out or reduce the cost gauge of the other team. Dissidia is different and the controls for that game is grounded but I think these two are more fun that DFF
Fuudo, the Fei Long Street Fighter player, plays Gunslinger Stratos pretty regularly.
They do. Tekken has 10 hit combos which is basically dial in combo strings that suck.
3D fighters tend to have strings rather than magic chains. And the strings are always character specific. That's why with some characters you can mash some buttons and some string of hits will come out anyway. Some characters have basic strings like f+1,1,1,1,1.
Yay, time to find a character. It'll most likely be Faust but we'll see.
Real talk, I do that after we've had like more than enough matches where I get tired of losing against Chun Li. Throughout an entire tournament, I probably do it once or twice cause I know its bad, but otherwise, I rip it a new hole and spam it. If Nemo does it, I do it too :E

Strings basically have the same effect. Also different characters have their own moves that would make magic chains not worth it.
the mentality shouldn't be that if someone does it, you should but rather to understand why someone does it.

Why take my joke and turn it around on me? Are you not entertained with my tears?! IS IT NOT ENOUGH FOR YOU?! WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT FROM ME VULVA!

you could try winning once in a while :B
I do. If you aren't on the same level as Vulva, I can probably beat you... with my Ryu ._.

i've retired from trash games, sorry
that's not true actually. i've retired from trash games released after 2002
What percentage would your Ryu be of you
Let me show you a 3D anime Kusoge that Capcom made that everyone forgot about

I'll play someone in SF4 on PS4...
Man that Cerebrawl thread was such a bait for me.
"It's like MVC2 guys!"
"It's 2v2"
.............................................
Does it even have assists? What's makes it "like" MVC2 in the first place?

i'm making a new 5v5, 10 man fighter. it's made in the vein of ST and SoulCal 2. Also I'm a tournament vet and OG. give me money please.
Will it have an artstyle that real people find unappealing? If so, I'm in

Hey man, Capcom brand name still got pull. Probably the only non-Nintendo company who can even conceivably do an All-Stars game. That plus Capcom marketing plus an art style that doesn't throw off normal people...?
Not like Capcom making any fighters any time soon...thanks SFxT

i'm hiring only the children of udung artists to make chicken scratch with anime eyes
also my accent is pretty great. i think. i dunno if i have one.
you should save money and just draw abstract art for your characters
Modern Art Fighter here we go
Bunch of reasons:
-tiny cast for an assist/tag fighter
-the whole assist/tag thing being optional
-not a 'problem' but Skullgirls lacks the verticality and aerial mobility MvC2 and MvC3 are known for
-marvel 3 was still a behemoth when Skullgirls was released
-very divisive art style and all female cast greatly limited its appeal
-completely new/unknown characters (as opposed to a Capcom-made vs. game would still have well-known/loved characters)
-marvel 3 did a lot to make it easy to mess around with multiple characters to allow players to (fairly) easily experiment with different teams and explore character synergies (which is the point of a vs. style game in the first place). Skullgirls with it's 6 button SF-ish control scheme, it's need for weird button combinations to call assists,etc., hinders experimentation since it takes more work to play any one character at a decent enough level to try them out.
They got Ed Ma tho, gg
The power of nothingness truly holds the potential of everyone in these thread. Would you like to hear the good word of hadoukentatsumakisenpukyakushoryuken?
Wow didn't know SolarPowered had that many alts
downgrade when?
