The mysteriousness of VF5FS netplay rooms: Randomly get rematches with the last person you played when there's 3 others waiting in line.

The future of netplay, 4 years ago.

Just curious but how does fight gaf feel about "as 80's as possible" as a theme for a character/characters, music, or stages in a fighting game?

Been on an 80's kick lately, excited for Power Drive 2000 getting its game and I'm sketching this weekend. Be fun to doodle some Neon City stuff while listening to stuff like Starcadian dance or die

It ought to at least make a good stage design.

it would certainly make a great setting for a beat 'em up

I miss playing VF... but man that lag was going to give me an aneurysm at times.

Damn, now I want to play more (if only to look less ass, woof).

My internet is not so fast. We got the att u-verse but it's really poor (around 17 up 3 down.) pretty sure they promised double that. I do know that my wife's work laptop goes to Dropbox in the evening but still.

At the loc test. There are a lot of small UI tweaks. The pre-match text stuff is different (heaven or hell, dual 1, etc etc). Looks more old-school GGish. The shading/shadowing on the chars themselves looks nicer now too. Lots of little electricity effects on the burst/tension guages.

lol, i doubt that would be the case. bruce lee too stronk, i learned a shitload of things though lol

Edit:

I just had an idea. What if Capcom is going back to their SFIII roots with the whole aoki, drake vs lil wayne and all that stuff, and have them co a couple pieces for their game like how third strike had those stick beats. just food for thought.

Its been so long since I've played Xrd. I completely forgot how to do Millia's Bnbs and like all of her moves lol.

The netcode is also way better than I remember it being.

From the images, characters are now affected by environment light, and don't seem like they're in their own dimension. The shadows seemed like they're higher res too.

Is the announcer still the same? His "heaven or hell" sound like he's not that interested in the fight, a let down compared to the old announcer.

Yeah, they finally ironed out all the kinks. For the first month or so at release it was pretty bad but it's all good now.

That's about how long I played it seriously till I just stopped because of the netcode issues in ranked. Glad to see its much better at least with the friends im playing with.

God damn I just forgot how much I hate Ram.

Man, Its not even rust I'm feeling with Xrd. Its like I completely forgot how to play the game and would have to relearn everything from scratch. Don't think I can ever take this game seriously again.

I also hate the grab mechanic but that's just me.

How would folks go about creative a slightly more unified "MMORPG community", the same way the Fighting game community (FGC) is?
