It's a character he used before..

He used Viper in vanilla. But she didn't change in the new update, did she?

What character dramatically changed?

 

[BigBadShamoo]

I still like TTT intro more, even though it might be a tad short.

Soul Edge still has the best fighting game intro ever.

True everyones right. Soul Edge's intro was pretty epic. I've had that mp3 downloaded for ever

 

[Busaiku]

Real facts.
Cross Generation of Heroes has the greatest fighting game intro.

 

[Deps]

Good fighting game intros give me ASMR tingles, shit is awesome.

Let's see among character changes

Akuma has faster fireballs
Blanka has dramatically better cr. mk, some blanka player here detailed the drastic changes to combos it allows
Decapre was buffed a shitton
Hakan got a considerably better cr jab and a much better crossup when oiled
Hugo got a good standing jab and better claps and a real super again
Rolento got better anti-airs, combo capacity and safer ex roll
Ryu got better fireballs and focus cancellable Cl St HK
Seth got more health

So, I'm guessing Decapre.

 

[enzo_gt]

Apparently Evo moment 37 is on worldstar lol.

At work can't check tho

FGW | Worldstar Uncut Edition

 

[hitsugi]

Did Sako ever really use Decapre...? Outside of those exhibition matches where Daigo was playing Hugo, of course.

He's just on the edge of being too modest in that interview, but that's Sako for ya.

Looking at the characters he's used who received some kind of change in 1.04:

Viper - nothing major
Cammy - nothing major
Decapre - all sorts of buffs
Elena - shitloads of things but he's done with her
E.Ryu - health nerf
Gen - some damage buffs and reduced recovery on hands
Ibuki - nothing major
Rose - nothing major
Seth - health buff
Yang - nothing major
Yun - nerfs

He's played Chun, but there's nothing happening there... Decapre or Gen seem like the only choices.

Yeah same. The Tekken series always gets my hyped.
I'm am here noooow. Am the doing I caaaaaan!

Fighting games have the best intros.

 

[QisTopTier]

That feel when you have a super important phone appointment where they are supposed to call you at 12:30 and they call you at 7:30 in the morning instead. So I had to call them *which ment going through papers to find the damn number and extension* "Oh thanks for calling!" Grrr

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

woops

 

[QisTopTier]

That wasn't off topic, you could say Punch-Out was a fighting game prototype but vs cpu only

Tekken 5 Intro--^


Yes I guess it's saying something if Namco has the most of the communities regards as animating the best intro sequences. Soul Calibur is by Namco afterall. Tekken intro's get me mad hypeeed and I love that song too. But pretty sure he says "I'm here nowwww I'm doing the best I cannnnn"

 

[DunpealD]

I figure the worst part of picking up an EXVS with no ability to read Japanese would be the character select screen. Lots of similar looking suits in a difficult to memorize menu.

Gundam, they all look the same! ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
You can set up to 3 favorites and each unit is sorted into their respective Gundam franchise. Considering the fact that this game also has the function to sell merchandise, finding the correct suit should be the least of your problems.

 

[Beckx]

Just remember the red ones go faster.

 

[SloaneRisette]

Yo the Skisonic donation

 

[Emperor Bohe]

dat floe cameo now

[DunpealD]

Just remember the red ones go three times faster.

FTFY.

On the topic of fighting game intros:
Rival Schools got a pretty cool and cheesy one. Rival Schools: Hotblooded Youthful Diary 2 isn't bad either.
Another nice one would be Eretzvaju(Evil Zone).

 

[QisTopTier]

Fun fact, I own a copy of Evil Zone.

Worst fucking game ever

I collect kusoge games in my free time and I'm pretty sure any one of these games beats that in being bad :V

[oneida]

vampire savior has my fav intro in a fighting game.

 

[Kumubou]

You'd be shocked.

You must have no idea how bad the kusoge can get, then. There's a whole bunch of games out that make Evil Zone look world-class.

You haven't lived until you've survived The Book (tm).

 

[Manbig]

People talking about hype fighting game intros?

It all began in '94...

 

[Azure J]

This is a good pick actually. In terms of my outright favorite ever, it'd probably go to Super Smash Bros. Melee. How that game still has the best intro in the franchse is a mystery. I'm also a big fan of Super Turbo's and Vanilla Marvel 3's (those mini movies were TOO good).

I like Xrd's as well but not enough to say it's top tier or anything. It has a nice mix of series intrigue and raw energy/personality with the second half introducing the characters.

 

[Coffeeling]

Soul Edge still has the best fighting game intro ever.

<3


GG character crisis solved. I got drafted into the bunny brigade, strawberry cancer department. Job description said something about shotgun damage.

(Seriously, who the hell approved power shotgun damage? That thing is filthy.)

Melee's intro is godlike. That music, that everything. Actually, just Melee. Melee is godlike.

If I can laugh at how shitty it is and get some random enjoyment out of it, it's already better

That's me not proff reading Kappa

 

[Silky]

Best fighting game intro of all time is Capcom vs SNK 2 and Tekken Tag 1

 

[petghost]

dno what my fave intro is.


guilty gear x intro got the best voice acting of all time tho.

I like this part of the melee intro because there's some cathedral singing in harmony over a stupid mario toy coming to life.

Also skylanders foreshadowing

4th Battalion, "Christmas Crusaders" here. Shotgun is the new Puffball. Now if only I had Johnny so my trend of dual maining a shooter and a slicer could continue.

This part is magical to me. It's made even better by the Smashing Live CD version extending it even further. The combination of visuals through the Shiek/Zelda segment to the end of the Fox/Wolf dogfight is just too perfect for that bit of music.

What mystery? It has an actual video to fit the song instead of being an amv with gameplay here and there. I love the Sm4sh character reveal videos but the intro needed an animation of its own.

It also needed someone shouting "SUPER SMASH BROTHERS"

Yeah they really should have just extended the beginning of the Villager trailer and add everyone else. The series logos is pretty hype.

 

[NastyBook]

lol Just met ShinBlanka in a Public Event on Destiny. Didn't know if it was him, so I messaged him. He confirmed, and we chatted for a while. Didn't make things awkward by sending him a FR, so I'm feeling pretty good about myself right now.

Got the weekend off for FR, so I'll show up and get wrecked in Xrd right quick. Not gonna get serious about that until I get a gaming monitor.

The lack of SUPER SMASH BROOOOOOOTHERS was my biggest disappointment with the game.

It's really amazingly bad how that keeps getting skipped in production.

Well. Finally got around to tryin out Xrd. Must say. I was not disappointed. Fucking GOOOOOJUSSS. Runs pretty solid too.

Holy shit. I just noticed that they still have yet to put that back in. Jesus.
