This actually is a very apt comparison.
Both Waluigi and Rufus have super wacky body movements. I guess Wario does too, given his Smash moveset, but Waluigi is a lot more crazy in his movement. Rufus has the best qualities of both Wario and Waluigi!
That makes me appreciate him more.
I think Taka Arashi from VF is the best example of a big, fat, imposing monster in fighting games. There's no nonsense to him. He's gonna smack his belly and then manhandle you across the stage.
Unless you count Earthquake from SamSho, who probably takes the cake for fattest fighting game character. Pun intended, by the way.

At competitive levels it will be maining top tiers mostly whoever they are. All Birdie has to do is be top tier.

Waluigi did nothing wrong!
Also, all of y'all talking about Cammy's ass when I'm just sitting here like
Did you see her new face
So much better now. She looks like an actual person
Never knew I wanted this tbh Kreygasm

Woke up this morning and was so shocked by the Birdie design that I spilled my coffee on the table. Then I learned there will be no beta for SF5 on PC this summer and I'm salty.
Two weeks? Was there a date anouncement for the pc beta? If it is only two weeks i agree with you.
How much things will change is unknown but i doubt it is going to change so much that having the game earlier is not going to give an advantage over someone who hasn't touched the game at all.
I am pretty sure i heard capcom say multiple times that there is going to be a beta for pc, a quick search gave me this link from ign that says there will be a beta for pc at a later date http://www.ign.com/articles/2015/06/16/e3-2015-first-street-fighter-5-beta-details
The "two weeks" was about the full game release then? So you think that playing a beta for a game for more than 6 months doesn't give you any advantage over someone who hasn't played the game?
That doesn't make sense no matter what the changes are.

Ah i see, i didn't think that the beta would last so little. The few betas on pc i have followed lasted a lot longer.
Have there been any betas for other fighting games on consoles or pc? maybe that will be some indication

You can subscribe to the beta here: http://www.streetfighter.com/beta/
It will be later on PC (autumn) and I saw on twitter that the PS4 beta will last only 5 days.

So if that is true it is a taste of the game and not an actual beta test. If you could link that twitter message i would appreciate it.
I'm so in (on PC, gotta wait)

It seems like with V they did exactly what...I think it was Kirblar, wanted. They added a input buffer for links and took out plinking.

I think UltraDavid said it was a 2F buffer. So at worse the 1 frame links will be 3

Thank goodness. That fact and the apparent high overall damage makes my interest in SFV very high.
I just need to see another grappler aside from Birdie. Not sure if I'm digging him enough to want to main.
good

im not even surprised b
Those have a history of existing in A2 as well- Rose and Bison had them. I don't think it will be too bad, especially if you can bait it, like jab, wait, throw (assuming it has a little bit of recovery), or if it's close jab, EX Hurricane Kick perhaps?

If Oro doesn't make it in I might just main cammy. I used her in SF4 before moving on to Seth I just never liked how strict the tiger knee canon drill was.

3 things I'm curious about
Ryu's Parry being too good Edit: Looks like Ryu can only cancel successful parry into parry, has to wait for it recover to do anything else.
Cammy's alpha counter being a cross up hit
If hitstun reelback is tied to the exaggerated animations like in SF4 or if they're universal so that can be avoided. Whiffing things because they reeled back too far sucked.

They showed like 2 nanoseconds of Birdie footage in that Sony presentation. Today we should see a lot more. Cammy is still doing Cammy things as expected. Legacy characters are a double-edged sword.
Has the business model for this game been fully revealed yet? Am I missing something?

That's what I wanted too and it was present in Omega mode as well.
Although how are they going to take out plinking?
I was going make a thread about sexuality for you vs sexual for a character themselves. And while I have no real issue with poison,vega, anna,venom,zato and various other characters and like them.And i do not like Cammy and a lot the skullgirls cast outfits because i feel their outfits are more for me rather than being fitting for their characters.
But it seems more trouble than its worth.Based on the reaction in the cammy thread,i might just not be the primary demographic for a lot of female characters in fighting games. Its gotten the point to where as i question should i even like the a character when i see them in a fighting game.
And i do not mind sexual characters i and like them if they arent chumps like vega. But for characters who seemingly would be more modest i dont need to be pandered to. The internet exists.
But this coming from a dude who cares about story and lore and character motivation even in genres where he is often told "they dont matter". I have been way more interested in the lore implications of every characters inclusion even more so how they play. But based on all the boobie butt talk over cammy that might not matter for a lot of folk
Maybe this one of those "you are going to have to make that game yourself" type deals

Plinking AKA P-Linking AKA Priority Linking was a thing with how the engine recognized inputs and what came out when buttons were hit at the same time almost at the same time.
Fixing it should be by the engine recognizing a button wasn't released when you hit something else 1F after. It was likely a symptom of how they did input leniency in SF4 for EX moves and Ultras.
SF4 was the only game with something like HP~MP giving HP for 2 consecutive frames AFAIK. So yeah, it existing was just some weird chance.
Yea I know what it is, I am just wondering if Capcom is willing to remove the leniency in order to also remove plinking.
Don't think so, especially since it has first party backing now.
And Ono seems to have big plans for the competitive scene going by the $500K he was able to secure for SF4 at CapCup.
SF4 is the only fighting game with something like HP~MP 1f apart giving HP for 2 consecutive frames AFAIK. That to me looks like it was totally unintentional reaction of a combination of coding. Leniency and plinking are totally unrelated even if leniency might be one part to why it exist in SF4.
Plinking is gone according the doc UltraDavid shared.
Need more info on how the buffer works. Like is it because I'm still holding the button that makes it 2f.
