They need to hire people who know fighting choreography instead of it looking like actual scrubs fighting

They actually do do that. Since Deadly Alliance.

 

[Numb]

Of course, that's the best way to gain meter with Storm

Justin abusing the strongest tech all that time flying through pools lol

Need to be better
Even anime fighters got more fluid and less scrub looking moves and transitions

Tennis doesn't float players, though. And even then seeds are determined on a circuit by circuit basis I think

Man, I can't imagine what that would be like. That would blow up into a scandal of sorts, lol

I think the animation studio is trying to tell us something.

'CONDEMNED'

Perhaps real people cannot match animation

Time for new style
Seeing Injustice 2 and still clunky. Maybe that's just the NRS package

 

[Professor Beef]

I'm trying to figure out why people want realistic movements in games that are all about doing things people cannot do IRL.

They do. If you're not ranked in the Top 100 and didn't receive a Wild Card spot, you have to play in the qualifying rounds before the tournament to get in.

And I don't know what you mean by "circuit by circuit" basis. Seeds are based on the ATP/WTA rankings, where players accumulate points based on their performance in tournaments over the previous 12 months. Performance at majors is given more weight than performance at other events as well.

Who was asking for that

.

Compared to JP fighters, I think NRS stuff looks sloppy. But the combos they make for you (Dial-a-combos?) flow nicely. The are designers that animate multiple moves start and end frames to end at similar places, so that the moves appear to flow. They make every move so independent from the others, that they all look as if they're starting from a different neutral pose. It does look like quick camera cuts in a low-budget dub of an old Kung-Fu movie, which I appreciate on it's own, but otherwise...

Yeah, it's pretty much their style nowadays.

Cause everyone always needs something to bitch about. And it's usually something they also know nothing about.

Apparently tennis tourneys don't work at all like I thought they did lol

I bet they have VIP rooms too.

Damn

floe's stream is already better than I had hoped for.

People want smoother movements. Nothing in those japanese fighting games looks realistic. It just looks better animation wise. Tekken 7 is pretty unrealistic in alot of the new moves, but it just looks good.

I think NRS stuff looks choppy and stiff as well, imo. Not about being realistic. I like the type of the moves they are doing, I wish it looked better.

The characters in 3D MK are animated like action figurines who can only pivot and not display the full range of human bodily motion.

Even 2D MK looked better in this regard.

 

[mbpm1]

Turns out you can repeat gold. Floeback thursday is nice

 

[Malice215]

Floe's stream has been a nice treat with Air Ease starting the podcast late.

It looks bad.

Holy shit just stop you NRS shill, the guy who works at NRS and posts here doesn't even do this shit

 

[Kadey]

ECT and FA in one weekend? Going to be divided.

It's fine to like a game and also be critical of it.

Original DmC? Sure. Though they removed the Vergil fedora in the Definitive edition.

DMC in general is for people who think going around looking like Neo from Matrix is still cool in 2016.

 

[pizzacat]

I mean there's a game that just recently came out with nothing but matrix looking people in it and it features the illuminati and people seem to like it I guess so maybe that's not so bad

I still have my black denim trenchcoat from high school in a closet somewhere

I was going to ask what game is that then I realized you are talking about Deus Ex lol.

Max seems pretty indifferent about the netcode so far.

First Attack is part of CPT NA, not CPT LA. I don't know why either.

 

[Line_HTX]

Oh, it's ECT time huh.

 

[Deps]

People still can't seem to grasp the concept that netcode can't fix terrible connections.

 

[ShinMaruku]

Netcode is only half the battle, you must also account for the connection as well. Some folks you will never have a good match due to their location or their means. As long as KOF's baseline is improved all will be fine.

 

[mnz]

Fighting games seem to have a problem with filtering out bad ones, too. KoF has the same problem SFV had, where you're getting worse connections than you set up in your settings.

At least that's a big positive sign that SNK did something right this time if even Max is saying it's great.

Pretty sure I've seen people in this very thread suggest that WiFi is "fine" for playing fighting games online, so yeah.

NRS animation is kinda shit, but this is just silly. Their 2D animation was worse, much, much worse.

maybe if you're only thinking about like, Genesis ports or something.
