No, the animation looks terrible at full speed, too.
That is why people reacted negatively in the first place, and why people are even bothering slowing it down to see just how whack it is.

Sometimes some of the best animations are whack.
Cammy's new air throw animation doesn't bother me tbh, but that's prob. cuz it reminds me of Heidern's neck roller which I liked, so I'm prob. biased that way :X

What happens when someone who gives him money to make mods puts that mod out there for people to download for free

wouldn't matter since all his mods are a timed Patreon exclusive for a couple of months. after that its free

Cammy's airthrow seems like such a small thing to get worked up over.

This isn't sarcasm, they are important. Aesthetic is important to people.

Especially after all that talk about how much superior SF V's animation is in comparison to other games. I mean, it doesn't take away from all the good looking moves in the game but it just ends up standing out more.

This is true. Over time Street Fighter V's strengths (balance, gameplay) were kind of a bulwark against all the criticisms of SFV's failings (lack of singleplayer content, online issues) but even those have slowly been eroded. I'd say the animation is probably the most stellar aspect of SFV and easily the most defensible so its a shame that a weird animation like Cammy's air throw sneaks in the game.

Plus when the animation is top notch otherwise that shit stands out. It took a video released like a month ago about NRS's shit animation for people to realize how bad some of the individual attacks looked. I felt if SFV had a character doing Kitana's crouching kick attack people would have noticed it way sooner.

Probably because of the amount of vitriol SF5 gets. People are still mad about Ken's face to this day, after all.

Numbers are less competitor wise than last year, but you don't always need to break records to have a successful event imo.

Replying to @CEOJebailey
I'm also very well aware on mistakes made with last year's event that will be fixed for this year. I'm always listening and improving.

For Smash numbers being down, there's tons of other great summer events now so people have to pick and choose. SFV had a huge boom last year

Alex Jebailey‏Verified account @CEOJebailey 42m42 minutes ago

and now things are balanced out. Injustice 2 has a crazy good number with 391. Tekken 7 is off to a strong start.

Alex Jebailey‏Verified account @CEOJebailey 41m41 minutes ago

But at least with numbers being down and one more year in this current venue, attendees will have more space & game time to enjoy themselves

I'm going hard to ensure #CEO2017 is run smoother than ever, people have more fun than ever. Still have some entertaining surprises in store

KOF people don't travel

V-Trigger? What's that?

You aren't paying attention to the important part o fthis picture.

The gun is also in rage mode. Does akuma's power transfer to weapons.

Can he have a Shin Magnum, and how much damage does shin magnum do.

Like can It kill an RE boss in one hit?

Ah, so EVERYTHING outperforms KOF then eh?

Smash dropped off worse than any other game, making me think that part of this is spillover damage from Dreamland.

It dramatically underperformed, Jebailey lost $20K on the event.

And because they JUST had a Florida Smash event, less people showed up to CEO now.

 

[Village]

Any reasons for its dramatic under performance, also was it 4, or melee or both?

Both. The market just wasn't there for the event.

CEO numbers down by a lot

SFV: -41.7%
Smash Wii U: -39.82%

Killer Instinct: -40.87%
Marvel: -25.90%
Guilty Gear: -21.02%
Pokken: -52.21%

Melee community gonna get flushed down in due time

More like Jebailey will have to rethink his tournament schedule approach for next year.

CEO + CEOtaku will be fine for 2018. The anime community is much smaller and doesn't have the overwhelming amount of events that the Smash community does, so something like CEOtaku can still draw a good crowd because it hits an underserved niche.

Have you played a lot of fighting games ? I can list you at least 20 fgs with a more fucked up balance than Injustice 2 lol. It's still bad tho'.

Third Strike has absolutely horrible balance, doesn't stop it being a great game.

 

[Sayad]

You know, those KOF14 models actually look really nice on a better engine.

Better animation too, but yea, KoF could have looked really good if they just used a proper engine.

T7 vs. SFV - time to get to match from menu comparison.

 

[Ucchedavāda]

T7 vs. SFV - time to get to match from menu comparison.

What are a few seconds when you have already waited years? Kappa

 

[AAK]

T7 vs. SFV - time to get to match from menu comparison.

I think what's more obnoxious is if you're in a 2 person lobby, the time it takes to finish one match and rematch with the same characters is absurd. Even SFV lets your instant rematch while T7 forces you back into the lobby screen, then you have to go through the loading of the character select screen, then the loading for the loading screen of the match, which then loads the match. You have to repeat this process for every match and it blows.

SFV streamlining this by using the VF5FS system of letting you choose your character in the lobby bypassing so much of the loading is a godsend.

Haven't heard anything from Namco about this or the lack of replays so we're just going to have to hold that.

you only ruin the fun by trying to achieve better balance if your way of doing it is basically "remove all the things" tho

unbalanced games aren't fun just by virtue of being unbalanced, they're fun when even if you play wack characters they mostly still let you do shit
