I respect customization in fighters. You want to give someone a personalization aspect to attach to a character. In the current gaming climate that means getting some extra profit off your game.

For the love of god let people toggle that stuff off for online matches. What would be the reasoning not to? Probably my greater pet peeve with KI, that and not letting people exit matches after ultra since they usually last five minutes.

I hope that was the last Ken at Tokyo Game Show. Cammy mirrors with Poongko and Kazunoko are definitely a way better showing than any Ken.

Finally getting a day off in 2 weeks and I need it. Laid out a coworker last night who hid in the back of the truck to scare me and his prank backfired pretty badly for him.

On reflex when he popped up and yelled to scare me I spun with an elbow as hard as I could and ended up taking his chin. He also had yelled as I was trying to back up though so when I sent that elbow (and I SENT it. Too many years in martial arts has me on a hair trigger with fight or flight reflex stuff) I braced it with my legs and ended up stomping the gas. We hit the hillside and the guy hiding to see the whole show laughed their ass off as the truck slammed into the hill and the other dude dropped across the back floor board. So there I am in the side of a hill with a dude moaning and laughing as his buddy cracks up at 2 am last night as I'm asking if he's okay or bleeding and wondering what the fuck is with my job.

Control room laughed their ass off when they saw that the end result of trying to sneak up on me was a muddy tailgate, a carved up hill, and a swolen faced coworker. Been a running gag forever that I did kung fu and wrestled for some reason with these guys. They never really believe that the nerd in the group did anything before this job for some reason (dick measuring football rednecks. Go figure...) so now the story is I "Done did a JUDY CHOP" to the two of em. Glad I didn't catch his mouth or nose or it would've probably did some real nasty work. They'd stolen the electrician's cart to sneak up on me and hide in my truck and apparently their vehicle died in the attempt meaning I had to tow the vehicle back for em and sneak it back to the electricians. I purposely drilled every speedbump as the other dude sat in the seat stearing it behind me and bounced his ass across the roof for all that. Apparently the bumps jolted the shorted engine back to life though so hey the carts back and running and they're none the wiser for my efforts.

But hey...on the plus side Andy Bogard would've been proud of that one. Leveled him in the face with that one so its kind of like I got to do some KOF training last night at least.

...

God I need a new job out of redneck WV. Soon as I'm A qualified I'm negotiating a contract elsewhere. Maybe I can get in with a nice solar or gas plant on the west coast in a few years once I'm in the chair with the experience to sell to other folks.

Moral of the story: Don't try to trade fists with Feng Wei. Your ass is grass otherwise.

Heh. As I read it, I imagined a short fight scene.

Oh it was definitely a short one lol. If he had been in front of me I would've probably caught myself, but it was late, I was on my second 12 hour midnight shift, and he snuck up behind me where I couldn't see him so my reflex was to just straight up go all in on a shot at whatever was behind me.

I kind of have a history of taking hard shots at things that sneak up on me from behind.

I screwed up years ago in training when someone snuck up on me in kung fu. Seems if something surprises me from behind I just go all in because I don't register a threat level when I can't see whats coming at me. Headbutted one of the instructors across the bridge of the nose pretty hard when he grabbed me from behind unexpectedly in Nitro WV and again in public once I damn near took my trainer Travis' foot arch in Borders books once when he snuck up behind me and bearhugged me in public. He moved the foot in time when he felt me tense and my leg throbbed from the stomp aimed at his arch that ended up hitting the ground hard enough to to startle a few folks near the CD's beside us.

I don't do surprises well. Thank God no one has ever thrown me a surprise party.

I don't twitter for reasons that are obvious. Wife keeps encouraging me to start doing novels. Might give it a shot.

I'm really glad Street Fighter never went down that path for their story modes. Not that SFV's story mode was particularly great but a visual novel broken up with fights isn't something I necessarily want.

I think the ideal story mode would just be something like KOF XV's story mode where there's lots of character interaction during the fights but with a higher budget. The actual gameplay would just be 3rd Strike's arcade mode but maybe you can choose between three fighters instead of two. I'd also make choosing who you fight have a mild impact on the story and who you fight later.

But the worst thing about the big cinematic story modes is some characters inevitably get relegated to small roles. I really don't care about who, canonically, won the tournament or whatever. Even if Dan would never win a Street Fighter tournament I'd rather see what that would be like instead of seeing another game focused on Ryu/Ken/Chun-Li/Guile.
 
If I'm gonna play a fighting game, everyone else plays SFV so I guess that's the thing to play. Is there a game of the year edition or anything yet that has all the crap unlocked?

Edit: Or will there be at some point after Urien's out?

Theres a Deluxe edition that includes the season pass (It is currently on sale on PSN for PS+ members), but Capcom so far has not made any mention of an all-in-one package for $60.

Not posted yet, or just old news in a new blog post?

http://blog.us.playstation.com/2016...rize-pool-increased-new-sfv-content-detailed/

Among other details/highlights:

What percentage of the Capcom Pro Tour DLC revenue is going to the Capcom Cup 2016 prize pool?

A minimum of 30% of the revenue will go to the Capcom Cup 2016 prize pool, and an additional 50% of the revenue is invested into Capcom Pro Tour production. That means that Capcom contributes more than 80% of all CPT DLC revenue directly to support Capcom Pro Tour initiatives.

I feel like this would have addressed a significant amount of the complaints/bitching if they had come out with this when the CPT DLC stuff was announced instead of you know, months after the fact.
