Not MK X. I could see how barebones SF V looked that it wasn't that appealing to casual gamers. Let alone the advertising seemed really scarce outside of the tournament scene.

There's been a ton of commercials for it on the sports channels on TV.
worst thing about SFV visuals so far is how badly they deteriorate on PC if you have to adjust down. The difference between "medium" and "low" shadows is the worst I have ever seen. Unfortunately for my cab installation I'm forced to either choose a lower resolution or lower shadows to hit solid 60 fps, and lower resolution is the lesser of two evils.

From the sales it looks more like a gentle roll down the hill. Every iteration sold less and less, SFV numbers are lower than Ultra's.
At least it's still selling better than Guilty Gear I guess.
Super Smash is a major success. On Wii U alone it's over 4.5 million.
Unfortunately I haven't played a NRS game that clicked with beyond mashing buttons.

The point of "MKX just had so much more" vs SF5 is coming around the office.
People like the fighting more but when you earn fightmoney with nothing to unlock or no tower or mutations to mess with or story that is stupid but fun stupid, its harder for me to justify them on getting it till there is something more for them.
A lot of people just want to know what happens to Bison or what Ryu's origin story is.

Agree. I hate having to tell casual friends to wait until March or, usually, June.
I read this as Marz's stream at first.
Oh man the doom and gloom SFV threads in the gaming side.
I didn't realize that SFV's MC is 77. Looks like once the money hat reviews were out of the way the other sites that weren't money hatted went ham on the game.
It sucks that all this happened because this is just more ammo for Capcom to not put out another fighting game. But Capcom got no one to blame but themselves for it.

77?
That went down.
It's no secret game got pushed out the door very quick for many reasons. Was hoping the name could keep it afloat alittle till it gathered itself fully with content and whatnot. Hope capcom doesn't put too much thinking about the score. Too many publishers give power to it and overeact

Not canon!
That Dual Kevin vs Clockwork FT10 though...
mashing jab stops any throw attempt
his defense is pretty much straight unreal in it
like i have never seen anyone consistently do the absolute correct thing on reaction so consistently/quickly + correctly guess on the hard guesses so much vs. clockwork's team
Sixfortyfive
He who pursues two rabbits gets two rabbits.
Her charged s.HK is +2 on block, so I dunno if a jab will stop a follow-up throw.
If you know they like going for grounded throws after it, just jump. You run the risk of her chasing you down with her anti-air throw, but that's not something they're likely to do on the first attempt.

If you're blocking the charged dropkick it's already too late. All he has is his jab (if that even works) or reversal teleport if you're not pushed into a corner, the latter of which still able to be punished. Normally I'd say neutral jump, but with how slow and floaty Dhalsim's is... yeah.
Slide underneath it, slap her from afar, use standing jab to stuff it from up-close, use V-Reversal during blockstun before she recovers.
I think they should have waited like one more month or two before releasing. I'm enjoying the game, but my more casual FG friends are seeing the reviews and holding off on getting it on PC.
Of course they should of waited, but the executives at Capcom are atrocious and have been for a while. It's a C tier company given all of their internal problems, which are completely out of our control so there's no point in second guessing. A company which put a goof like Yoshinori Ono as a producer and even supervising the FG division is bound to fail more often than not.
That's a partial knock on him, as I respect his passion for the genre and he's very skilled as a PR person imo. The problem is that it's kind of obvious to me that he's not fit to be a producer, given his lack of attention to details and his goofiness coming through from everything to character designs to the overall package of both IV, V and SF X Tekken.

Embarrassment over the shellacking Clock received...Dual Kevin has levelled up in a major way. His defense especially is impressive, he blocks almost everything.
Where's the SFV tier list though? It's been one week man.
Personally I don't see myself switching myself away from Cammy even though I will be learning other characters on the side. I feel that she has all the tools one would need to do well in SFV. When I lose I know it's because of me and not because of the character or the match up, which is good.
Game feels fairly balanced for week 1.

Happening to me as well, biggest change from IV imo
And Cammy is awesome in this game, always hated her but now I'm enjoying playing her

Jump or backdash. Reversal teleport is not throw invincible.
Of course you can also hit her HK before it connects or V-reversal immediately.
Balance is surprisingly strong for first release, I think. It's been a long time since I've seen a roster where it's hard to fill the bottom ranks. There are characters like Zangief and F.A.N.G who I think are probably working harder than the rest of the roster right now, but even then both seem like they could be serious problems if you're willing to walk to catch the bus.
Zangief in particular is kind of interesting to me because generally you'd think he would get weaker as match-ups get explored, but I think he's actually going to stabilize or move up slightly this time. He has pretty good buttons (especially in terms of average normal range), his V-Trigger is fucking strong and is going to help match-ups from ever getting too far out of his control, and his air SPD I think was absolutely worth the green hand trade in the long game.

I posted my week 1 tier list in the Discord chat, but I got laughed at.
More importantly, I'm having a blast with Ken which was usually my main in most SF games.
Especially since I'm getting my reactions back and doing all type of run cancelling + v-trigger stuff. He's way more fun than he ever was in IV, that's for sure.Post it here, missed it.I posted my week 1 tier list in the Discord chat, but I got laughed at.

I feel the same way. I need more tech/better mindset and better choices.
I like Cammy but I really want to see who else I might like.

I have it at home. PM me tonight on Discord and I'll share it. Also, I have the Spectate quest again. :-D

Watching pros try to complete Survival mode on hard is so funny.
The strats they use to try finish it are hilarious. Put on network battle settings when you get low in life and run away until it finds somebody.
MOV is currently pressing start over and over while holding down and punishing normals with ex SBK.
I didn't even know pausing the game would keep your charge lol

yes but he just got bopped by level 40 Karin
I actually have been asking people for their top 5 (doesn't have to be in order) currently.
I want to check in again before evo, and then again after evo.
Thanks for all the help guys! Didn't know backdash would work outside of the corner.
I think slide on reaction might be my best option.
