I predicted SFV would hit the cap for CEO. But I thought it would need emergency registration to reach that. CEO doesn't have emergency registration so SFV will probably fall short. Maybe just 900 at best even with a huge rush to register at the last second. Hope I'm wrong though, I'd love to see another SFV tourney hit the 1,000 mark.
GGXrd's online is no better than SFV's. And even if your matchmaking is good it's useless when no one is online to play against. And the game isn't a better value to me if I have no desire to play bullshit feature checklist filler modes. Why would I watch a poorly written, mostly poorly animated 5 hour anime movie? The only thing I wanted from Revelator is the extra characters but I guess I have to pony up for this other shit I have no use for but it's OK because "it's a better value."
I really like Revelator but I'd say the only thing it does better unequivocally is the tutorial mode. I don't award points for a bunch of stuff that I have no interest in.

Wait, someone actually thinks the ArcSys way of releasing games is the right way?

I'll take Blazblue's non extend releases over anything else
Yeah, I don't see CEO hitting the cap for SFV unless there's just this surge of players waiting to reg at the last second. I don't know what Jebailey could do differently to hit the cap, or if he even wants to.
On a somewhat related note, I actually think Combo Breaker would have been near a 1000 and have more players if they didn't have a cap of 640 players. With the way people were talking about Combo Breaker, it seemed like it was THE tournament to go to for the year, where I feel that CEO's year to year excellence kinda hurts it in that respect. People expect CEO to be great every year, so its kind of ho hum.
And obviously, EVO is on its own level.

Rev was 100% worth my 60 bucks as a long time series fan.
More music, more characyers, reworked blitz system, reworked side dust, new 4 1/2 hour story, upgraded lobby, upgraded trials, better tutorial, upgraded visuals, resigned stages.
I have 0 issues buying upgrades like this at full price ONCE a year. I put hundreds and hundreds of hours into these games the money to time value always wins out

I'll take getting more than just characters any day
Quantity over Quality.
KOF 14 looking like straight dog shit and SFV lacking crucial content, okay then.

xrd's tutorial mode is actually not that great. Doesnt teach about burst or dead angles.
edit: the mission mode though is pretty good

I was hype but he was underwater...I think he may be a stage transition like Killer Croc was

Their skin looks weird. It's like they got a chubby Kiefier Sutherland to do face mocap for Aquaman.
It's not going to change until NRS switches to a new engine. They're still on their customized version of UE3.

Was there any gameplay in the footage y'all saw or was it the average "what's gameplay, i need sik grafix" discussion

I hope not.
There was some brief gameplay. Mainly showing some moves and stage transitions.

They showed a stage transition and some specials, but not a lot to gain from it except what specials some characters have like Supergirl's walk forward eye laser. Can't gain much info from a bunch of jump cuts between action. It looks like Batman's super involves his Batplane.
Yeah there was game play.
Supergirl did a "laser beam while walking" attack that looked goofy as hell.
Not much worse than SFV's original Karin face tho

there was gameplay but nothing interesting that we haven't seen already. it looks the same.
It had quick cuts but from what little was shown it looked the same as the original.

Guarantee this makes a shitload more bank than SFV.
That's a pretty easy guarantee, the original Injustice did very well. NRS in general makes bank, even pure crap like MKvsDC made millions...
Not like that's a hard minimum to achieve. I almost want to say that a DMC5 being released soon could make more bank than SFV.Guarantee this makes a shitload more bank than SFV.
And yeah game play looked very similar to Injustice 1 so if you liked that then you will like this... if not then probably not for you.

Injustice 2 looks like more of the same. Meh.
Same kinda animations, Supergirl looks like crap of course, same overly long stage transitions.
At least there's a little bit of color in there this time i guess.

To be fair, that's not a hard thing to do.
Most of the trailer was stage transitions and supers. Saw a couple of special moves like supergirl lasers and aquaman using legs of a kraken (may have been a grab) and Grodd using telekinesis to make atrocitus hit himself.
Also Black Manta may have been an NPC. He didn't have the nrs design of the other characters.

I'm disappointed that Black Manta looks to be just a stage transition. I thought the game looked great graphically but I'm fairly easy to please. It's surely a March/April 2017 release so still lots of polish to go.
Animations look better than the original, expected as much since MK X did make strides in that department. Can't comment on game play mechanics from short segments but looks fun.

what do you mean
Just in time for the latest NRS game aka the NRS cycle.
Idk faces look kinda fucked up compared to mkx. Like you could see big differences between first injustice and X but that close up on supergirl compared to like this
idk.
It's just the first trailer I'm probably exaggerating
From the Injustice thread. I think it looks ok.reposting few gifs I took.
Game looks pretty cool.
¯\_(ツ
_/¯ oh wellIt's basically the same as Xrd, and well above KI.
