Fighting Games Weekly | June 8-14 | We played a lot of SG and VF for some reason

I want the characters in any SF to be carefully considered because I want them to take advantage of that system and work in the direction they are going instead of the square block forced into a round hole. SF4 just had SF2 characters for the sake of having them. Some lend themselves well to the system, others just suffered because they were trapped playing SF2 or whatever SF they were from in SF4. I don't think Blanka, Vega, Dee Jay worked in SF4 system, they just felt built for a different game.
Besides that, specifically the SF2 cast has been in ST, Alpha 3 Upper and SF4 and seem to always get in for crossovers and the like. Yeah, I get they were in the most popular SF title but jeez.
I want mostly new characters that are designed within the goal of SFV like 3S did. I think bringing back a character than overhauling their moveset to where they are a new character is weird. I think returning characters having new moves or tweaking is great like Bison.

This is true.
This art is shit honestly. If she had a similar costume to Linn Kurosawa minus the shoulderpad that would be cool.
That's the same level of stupid as people saying SFV looks like exactly like SFIV.
I think that was the point.
I agree with this, but you can change a character to fit a system. KOF changed a few of their characters every year- and SF has done it on occasion (Cammy, Dhalsim, Rog)

Most people are gonna drop the game if we are going to be real
Didn't realize that was sarcasm. lol.
Just like the release of Darkstalkers Resurrection.

Do people who want Urien in SF5 like his character, or just how he played in 3S? Because sure as shit he's not gonna be able to do any of the things he was able to do. The reactions are gonna be the same as when Dudley/Makoto/Ibuki were revealed: "why can't I 3S with them"
Hopefully he's still fun enough when he makes it in

That's why we need oro, because he would be.
They would have to take away his dashes and double jump. But he's already a footsie heavy character so he works well.
KoF characters are same-y compared to SF cast and keep much of the same universal mechanics through titles unlike SF. It makes transitioning between characters and KoFs pretty painless.
I think people at this point are asking for characters they have an affinity towards one way or another which is fine. I don't expect Sean to play like his 3s self and that would mostly be a good thing anyways. I'm requesting the character mostly because I like the character.

I like both. If they do his character justice and I can chariot tackle, that will be enough for me.

Im team give cammmy pants. I thought maybe there would be no dive kick characters, o well.
More hyped for Birdie.
More hyped for Birdie.
i dropped vergil 2 months after release after going 'im definitely picking him up' the instant he was revealed
fml
I dno his normals would still be rad and he would probably still have aegis. He doesn't need ub setups to be an interesting char imo he has all the tools to be very interesting in a diff environment.

To be fair the character being very obvious low/bottom tier definitely made people drop him that probably wouldn't have otherwise.
So here's Birdie from Alpha 3:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1rJC1YV2ZSo
Impressions of Birdie that leaked say in this current build he's too strong, because he has "chain" move specials that wreck shop. They made it seem like they meant he can use a chain to do something to you i.e Ghost Rider from UMvC3. Or are they just complaining about freaking command grabs?
Also, they better not keep those whack ass inputs from Alpha for the command grabs. Just do half circles... none of this Up towards Up fukiness.
------
Also, tried KoF13 tonight on Steam. Couldn't find any ranked matches, found 1 private match against a lvl 42 killer.
I should've checked to see if the game is dead as shit online before buying it. Whoops.
Kim seems awesome and easy to play. Terry was legit. Rest of my characters I messed with were ass. I remember being so hyped for KoF13 before release, then when I got my hands on it I just couldn't get into it and the online netcode was ass cheeks.

That first month after the game came out was hilarious in retrospect. "Vergil sucks cause he can't whiff cancel normals". Oh to be young and naive.
You're probably right.
Or 3SO.
I agree.
As much as I want to see Urien, Alex, Oro, Karin, etc... I think I'd probably get MORE hyped from a new character than anything else.
When they showed Abel back when SF4 was in the works...shiiiiiit. So sweet!
Pretty sure level 3 focus becomes blockable or something if you're already in blockstun. I don't remember what it is, but you can't do what you're thinking of with Rose's orbs even if you lock them down.

I'm excited for characters period, SFV is shaking things up and making them look fresh. If Birdie (might play like a mix of omega gief and some other big character) and Cammy (have to look at omega combos for her) are announced, that's awesome. We're still going to get two more character announcements at EVO either way.
Edit:
Omega Cammy Video
Eh, she's a little more flashy and speedy but that's pretty much it. Would have liked a bit more in terms of craziness like with what they did with Seth. Stuff is straight up unfair lol
I don't know, if advertised right, people will casually play it. Don't expect every player to pick it up to instantly become a fan of fighting games and play them feverishly whenever they get the chance.

I'll play you in any KOF if you need someone to spar in the game with. Out of practice but I get by with what I know.
I'll also play people in +r on steam. Haven't tried online on that game though, but just add my steam id simsiriphanh if anyone wants to get some games in.

I always liked the concept art for female Abel.
I want a character who plays like Gato from Garou with a mix of Potemkin for Guilty Gear.
And make it a bad ass chick like that Abel female concept art.
10/10 would main.
Right now, a character with multiple different V-Trigger installs. Nash already has 3 different uses for his V-Trigger, would like to see a character that has different power ups. Maybe a tech based character.
