fuck champ put up a TOD on zero on twitter

I saw that combo.

Full Power Stone activation plus LVL3 ender.

This is not something that is going to be that common since it's using a ton of resources.


Also looks like they changed the scaling on LVL3s again. They do a shit ton of damage at the end of combos now. I wonder if the day 1 patch will change this or not.
 
Power storm doesn't remove pushblock anymore it seems. Might be some differences in the final build after all (zero am cry), I swear the dmg seems higher.
 
So you are under the assumption anything Justin says will be not in good faith? Tell me how you feel about Aris and Tekken, then. Or literally anyone else who's received an early copy of a game.

Can you pinpoint these moments of fakeness for me?

Also, lemme put it this way. The audience JWong and FChamp are streaming to were probably on their way to buy the game. Maybe 10 percent were on the fence. These streams aren't going to change much in the way the game is seen. Casual gamers are what Capcom needs to shill to, and influencers like Pewdiepie or whatever mega giant Twitch streamer/Youtuber are far more important than anyone in the FGC.

Everyone thinks they know what a shill is, but after working in marketing, y'all don't know how to separate giving out some codes to people in communities to actual adverts.

Tekken 7 is a 2 year old arcade port. Justin, Fchamp and Joe were tweeting about how great the game was after playing it for 1 day, they were literally given early access in return for advertising. My opinion is that it's a shitty thing for Capcom to start doing. There is no argument that it isn't shilling. I bought the game already so your precious Capcom already has my money.

I'm pretty sure that's just the Power Stone giving the move a boost. Earlier in one of the streams Lvl3 damage at the end of combos was shown to be the same as the previews.

You sure?

You known it's illegal for them to have done that like you claim? Take this tinfoil hat shit to R/Kappa.
 
I noticed that people who were excited for this game because it looks fun to play were given early access, yes. Get out with the shill shit.

I want us to be critical because if no capcom will keep screwing up. From SF4 to umvc3 to sfxt to sfv to mvci has the quality of games gone up or down? And that's my point I want to play mvci but that roster is weak as hell and the Dlc is bs. We can be excited but we need to stop this trend of over hyping crap that is lack luster or half assed

Uhh that doesn't excuse the fact that people received early home copies, which is still marketable for, you know, the console release.

I really don't care whether or not you bought the game. I just think it's funny people believe this is some sort of shilling tactic when that's literally not how marketing works because of so many factors. I've worked in marketing for years and even if this was some dedicated method to shill, it's not reaching the right demographics (read: people who already weren't interested in the game) nor is it using the right people (read: popular Youtubers with 10x more reach and pull than JWong or FChamp). Not even going to get into how the people you listed shitblast SFV every month, which is a bad outlook for the company, or how such shilling tactics are obvious and lose much of their impact when it's out in the open.

You are right, there is no argument because you literally don't know what you are talking about. Real shilling is something akin to those paid advertisements most of my clients are hot on doing on Twitter. Not some review codes reaching just within the FGC. I can see why wouldn't want to have a discussion - you literally have no clue what you are talking about. That's fine - have a conversation with yourself. Goodbye.
 
I think the critical distinction here is "would Justin/FChamp/Joe/Yipes/etc shill for Marvel" vs. "is what they are doing now shilling." They 100% would do the former if given the opportunity, that I don't doubt for a second. But what is going on here isn't shilling or even that effective for marketing; it's just people that have built their livelihood for the most part of this series toying around with another entry that they love and maybe showing off to probably 10k people at best who are already deep in the FGC.

This early access stuff is actual very smart.

Capcom quickly learned that showing off the game themselves only created memes and bullsh*t from haters...so they said screw it and just let the community's best/beloved Marvel players show off the game instead.

Makes perfect sense.

No use doing more interviews where people will cherry pick random words like "function"...no use uploading a bunch of youtube videos that trolls will downvote in droves.

Just let the game speak for itself within the community.

I mean, I guess turning "we are pretty bad in showing off our game, just let them do it" into a positive is pretty impressive in of itself. But hey, whatever works, it's not like they have anything left to lose at this point.

And I don't think people "cherry picked" function, nor was it random at all; Combofiend perfectly explained what he meant in detail and he (rightfully) got flak for it.
 
You sure?

Was on Joe's stream earlier, he wanted to show it, goes "try to pushblock try to pushblock" and the guy...does lol.

So Joe is like "oh...err... I guess it gives less pushblock?"

Oh btw I'm pretty sure that's OG TE stick they are using there (I should know I have one), that's a ps3 stick tho?

Also it's 3:10am...and my phone has 12% charge left ;_;
 
Chris is so god damn bad in this game.

It's so sad but he can have another character thats better than him as a partner at least.

Why does his mine be destroyed by his opponents? Why doesn't he have a gun move that covers vertical space? So many questions...
 
Yeah, only one voiced win quote is going to be unbearable. I'm already so sick of "THE PAST IS NOT IMPORTANT, ONLY THE FUTURE" and "JACKPOT, I WIN AGAIN!".

The worst part is there's virtually no way that would ever be changed, we're still going to be hearing these dumbass lines after every match 5 years from now.
You couldn't change the Marvel side either way, they've always been English-only.
 
It's a sad day when the fucking face of RE6 is gonna be ditched in this game for nemesis who is actually a valuable team member. We need wesker or some other new RE character stat.
 
Chris laying down didn't get hit by Firebrands fire super yo
 
Get it from CD keys or GMG. Don't pay full price for this if you don't want to. If you think it ain't worth it then it ain't.

Also depending on where you live you might find it cheaper. Here in Mexico the Deluxe version on Steam costs ~60USD/

thank you for this.

UG-OH looking game with DLC padded. I want to play but damn man.....

Jwong confirmed as such for him at least



It's 30 bucks on cdkeys.com

thank you very much. Will look into this shit right the fuck now
 
If power stone is the only one that unscales level 3s, it just went up to the top of my list.


Aaaand cap can fly like Jessica Jones if he blocks in the sure after a shield slash 😂
 
This game gonna be nuts. Everyone is going to be viable in their own way. Cant wait to see what people come up with, and this is just base roster. Can't wait till DLC characters add to the mix, but that's down the road some. We got plenty of work to do in the mean time.
 
Im not a Chris player, never been good with him...but give it time! Everyone seems to have been dialed up to 11. It's great.
Chris got a nerf to his magnum and a tackle from his prone stance. That's it None of the gems really help him with his deficiencies, either. I guess reality a bit? But no more than it would help someone else that's also good outside that gem.
