I was playing this pretty good Ibuki player in casuals last weekend.
I could be winning for the whole match, but one knockdown could = death. So ambiguous :/
Blanka isn't an issue.

Makoto's normals are specifically designed to counter poke everything. She doesn't need the walkspeed.

I always wanted to ask this, so does Ken Bogard pay Topanga to use their footage of World League? He seems to always show and commentate the matches on his youtube channel.
Yun, Bison and arguably Rufus
You had Vanilla Zangief and Rufus as well.
They were good chars but not top tier in Vanilla. Top to me in that was Ryu/Sagat/Akuma.
Yeah, but they were still classified as B, maybe even lower A at some point.

I don't recall Rufus having high health.

This throw is unbreakable on back turned opponents.
Well, all throws are, but look at this one.
That's from before 5FS, right? Way too little bloom to be FS.
SF4 stages are actually really beautifully done. I mean, okay, yawning hippos and all. But Overpass and Festival at the Old Temple pretty much look like paintings.
Make it not SF4. As a rule, if SF4 did it, it's probably a bad idea.
THISSS.
Yess. Also make them comboable and move people forward a good bit :>
Akuma and Fei
You should get both. They're great games.
He had the highest health in the game at first, but they kept dropping it with each update.

With all this JJBA talk I went and watched some promotional match on Capcom's youtube channel. This is now stuck in my head and it won't leave:

This is a good definition for madness. Why would you ever do that to yourself? I mean, I guess it's better than cutting yourself, but...
I got a new PS3. Best Buy was willing to take my PS3 for 100 dollars and GS was offering 40. It was a no-brainer. Problem was that they had no used PS3s - only 500 gig slims brand new. Considering the nature of why I was trading in my PS3 in the first place (shotty ethernet port) I figured it'd be best I get a new one anyway. Plus, it's 500 gigs, so the resale value should be good.
I'm trying to re-download the HK version because that's the version of Xrd I bought for PS3 (unfortunately). I bought the US version when it went on sale for 20 bux on PS4.
Why not just admit to yourself that you don't like Street Fighter? Granted, custom moves would be interesting, but I doubt they could do anything with the franchise that wouldn't adversely affect its core emphases that would make you appreciate it.
Thought I had nothing to lose. Never play ranked so I said whatevs. My rage fuels combos apparently.
Doesn't this conflict with what you stated previously in regards to what you valued in good fighting game design? Yes, Mak's normals are great for counter-polking on paper, but her walk speed limits her capacity to practically do that because she cannot will herself into a position to bait normals since her spacing has to always be pre-emptive or just plain fortunate. Her walk speed also allows her to get zoned out pretty damned hard. The amount of guesses she has to make extends all the way to her neutral game, and I think that's horrible. So despite her great normals, her footsies are relatively weak - correct me if I'm wrong. But that's my evaluation of the character.
You stated before that powerful/versatile universal options allowed for more even matchups - slow walk speeds are the anti-thesis to versatility and power.
SFV needs faster walk speeds and dashes across the board for me to get truly excited about it. I haven't played Chun-Li since I was 5; I don't care if her walk speed is faster, relatively.
In 3S, dashing in on a whiffed sweep or even cr. MK could net you a legit mixup or even punish - hell, dashing in at neutral could be a legit mixup if your opponent is just looking for a normal. I miss when SF had that kind of speed to offer those kinds of options.
You're lucky he stayed at all with those round settings

If memory serves me right, Rufus had 1150 health. Which was the 2nd highest in Vanilla SF4 only behind Gief I believe. Back then it felt like it took forever to kill guys like him, Sagat, and Gief even though damage was higher for many characters back then.

Um, I'm really open about not liking Street Fighter...on this forum and in person. I don't think that has anything to do with talking about making sure SFV isn't stale for the people that are interested, or having a discussion about what would make SFV more interesting for people here. You have the weirdest misunderstandings.
I've never seen you openly state that you don't like SF, just that you don't like SF4, which is saying something completely different.
But keep throwing out that shitty deflection about my lack of ability to comprehend things, maybe I'll believe it one day.
*edit*
I remember seeing you making comments regarding never seeing a character in the franchise that interested you, so maybe that's where you expect me to draw the implication from, but not liking a cast says little about how you feel about the games themselves. I think BlazBlue is great gameplay-wise, but I wouldn't touch it with a 10-foot pole because I can't stand the characters. Same with Tekken.

I really don't want this in SFV or KOFXIV.

What do you want in them? What new mechanics would excite you?
If it's something that I can easily anticipate then it probably won't be too exciting (which doesn't mean it won't be good), I would like Capcom and SNK to surprise me with something new/fresh.
I really want this in a new Capcom fighter. I'm not sure I want it to be SFV either.
Hey, he's the one that set it up. I just quick joined.
Pretty much, which is why I have a problem with the notion that custom moves should be added just because they worked well in other games. Don't want to see the CoD/Marvel/SF4 syndrome crop up in FGs this gen. Let each game do their own thing.
Though, I do have a feeling SFV will be the safest SF to date.
New mechanics are incredibly overrated for me. Nothing I ever get excited about, most of the time they're either really scrubby or really bad.
See Marvel 2>Marvel 3, what new mechanics were actually an improvement over what Marvel had already become? Just added stupid shit like X-Factor and TAC which were glitched the fuck out and added 3 minute long infinites.
See Melee>Brawl. Added tripping and actually removed popular gameplay mechanics. Added things like Final Smashes which nobody gave 2 shits about.
Brawl>Smash 4. Reworked the ledge game which had been a beautiful staple of the series since its inception, dumbed it down for scrubs for no reason whatsoever. Removed DI. Added a comeback factor which rewards you for losing. Awesome new mechanics for sure.
Guilty Gear Xrd. Added an awesome mode called Danger Time which is probably the worst clash mechanic ive ever seen, even worse than Injustass' clashes which is pretty hard to do. To be fair though Xrd stayed pretty true to its roots guilty gear is probably the most consistent across all iterations in the series.
SFxT........well yea you guys get my point.

i wish all fighters had a create a character mode of some kind
like def jam's or even rival school's
now that "2D is dead" there's really no excuse
doesn't even need to be competitively viable, though that would be a plus
e: i like final smashes as a mechanic, it's just a shame they're tied to an item instead of being something characters can just use, like a proper super move

If it isn't there will be massive whining about time spent on a mode "no one plays."
I think I've said this before but I still think there's room to bring back a game like Tobal 2 with its single player dungeon crawl / level up experience, but that still has a base set of characters & arenas for competitive tournament play. Add in the type of multiplayer from Souls-esque games.

DLC is crossbuy, not the game itself.

The section of your footsies tutorial where you explain how Makoto and Dudley work blew my mind. I've been playing Dudley since Super and was every bad online player you talked about. Your video was really a huge help in forcing me to look at the game in a new light.
A Pretty Panda
fuckin' called it, man
I don't think they removed DI in Smush 4
See if it's listed on displaylag.com because if so, they've already done the work for you.
Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately it's not. A newer version of my monitor is and they have similar specs. Displaylag gives it a great rating.

21ms which is at least 1 frame of lag. Good luck with those links.
Damn, I guess it's time for a new monitor. Is there a limit I should be looking for? Like 10ms or less?

What console are you playing on? If it's PS3 or PC, then it will have more input lag than 360.
Ranked mode in a fighting game ... to CALM you down...
