So, on another note, everyone's top 5 games at E3? Mine are:

God of War
Mario Odyssey
Spider-Man
Dragonball Fighterz
Shadow of the Colossus Remaster

1. Dragonball FighterZ - Stunning. Dropping everything else when this hits
2. Monster Hunter World - As a long-time MH fan the reveal was weird, but latest info seems legit
3. Anthem - Looks like it could be the next bro-op hit if it delivers on promise
4. Lawbreakers - Wasn't interested in the game until they announced it was coming to PS4 and not at full-price
5. Dragonball FighterZ - Let's make this a DBZ sandwich list because this game is going to be my bnb

If you count games that WEREN'T at the actual conferences, then Yakuza: Kiwami and Yakuza 6 make it to the top instead. Also Matterfall looks fun. I was generally disappointed by the lack of Japanese games tbh.

Im not seeing anything on the new costumes anywhere?

However, the character usage page appears to be broken at the moment, so no comparison with the previous month from me, this time.


EDIT: Looks like they were taken down again. LOL.

I really want Evil Within 2 but damn, they showed nothing but jump scares set pieces, and that's the thing I hated the most from the first game.

Did you watch the gameplay trailer?

What a weeb

 

[lucebuce12]

What a weeb

I generally like Japanese action games I wanted a new Ninja Gaiden (Ni-Oh doesn't quite scratch that itch), DMC5, Dead or Alive 6, and games of that nature.

I love games with a focus on melee combat and mobility and Japanese devs are just the best at that. As good as God of War will be, it will never manage to top the flashiness and fun of a DMC or Ninja Gaiden game.

Not a big fan of the standard weeb shit though.

Ni No Kuni 2 does not look appealing to me. If Code Vein gets good reviews then I'll eventuallt play that too but I don't have much hope, it's so anime.

Yeah Japanese devs know how to make games feel and look good. Have hard time getting excited about western AAA games most of the time. I think 95% of my games are from Japanese devs lol.

Today I learned that if you end a combo with cr mp with birdie you'll be close enough for an ex throw. You can also use LP throw but can get blown up if they walk back.

Poor guy was just trying to play SFV but that asshole F.A.N.G wouldn't let him. Also kinda serves as proof that people online repeatedly do stuff in the hope that it works.

In other news, made it to Diamond. I was just 20 lp away from 14000, figured what the hey.

 

[Sayad]

Did you watch the gameplay trailer?

You mean this:

It had like 2 seconds of shooting, another 2 with knife combat and about a minute and a half of horror set pieces!

Congratulations on reaching Diamond!


So many people in this game will just keep jumping.
One thing I noticed while playing Balrog was how many matches I won off AA stMP, and how often people would have no idea what to do after their jump-ins got shut down. Mind you, that was in silver - gold leagues.

Lmao, my brother plays Vega and he sometimes get hate mail asking him to switch or play a real character. I can imagine that being the case for FANG players too.

It is bit low on combat but it shows other than horror set pieces too. Lot of locations, enemy designs, atmosphere, etc. There is also the other trailer that shows bit more gameplay.

What do the combat stats mean. Sorry if this is obvious. Is it whether its a match up in your favour or not? Lower than 5 is against and above is in.

As for usage stats i guess im happy to be one of the 2.671%

Dragonball, Mario Odyssey, and Maybe wolfenstein for me. I was pretty underwhelmed this year.
Mvs CI hurt. I was really looking forward to it but boy that demo.
Bright sid is I finally got XrdRev2

For each row, it shows how many matches out of 10 that the character on that row wins against the characters on the corresponding columns. In other words, if you multiply that value by 10, then you get the win percentage for that matchup. So less than five is a disadvantageous matcthup and greater than five is an advantageous matchup.

However, keep in mind that these numbers will be heavily dominated by players at silver and below, since those constitute the vast majority of the player-base.

Thanks.thats what i assumed but couldn't see an explanation.

2. Zero, Theme DLC, and Story mode Leak

Cross posting from the Marvel Speculation thread.

They didn't say how frequent they would come out, but they really want to get out as many characters as they can by the end of 2018, especially since the SFV team apparently has some really big plans for 2018 and they need to compete for attention.

 

[BlitzKeeg]

This counter lmao, gief stop it pls

Hey! I was told that move was useless!

 

[lucebuce12]

Hey! I was told that move was useless!

Even the most situational of moves can seem fantastic when they actually work in that situation. Like 15-20 frames later, and that st.hk would've hit.

Given the accuracy of this last second leak combined with the multiple mentions we've been getting of SSFV for the past year or so, I'd say this is most certainly happening.

Took Cappy long enough.

Yeah.

There were a very low number of people at my local weekly yesterday. Summer + all the other FGs that have come out + some dropping the game out of frustration means that the SFV community has dispersed.

That explains his legs. He was just sewn back together wrong.

That's why having a constant schedule for DLC characters is so key. Keeps people interested. Ed brought back a few people at my locals.

Everyone is kinda picking up multiple fighters in general these days, too. Bunch of pro players are dabbling in Tekken and Injustice. I hope they stick with it, I like seeing people play more fighters across the board. Cross pollinate, baby.

SF needs that Super update though. I want Birdie to be able to stick his trash on someone and add an extra hit for more combo opportunities or some dumb shit like that.

A big issue w/ their current schedule is that they are just not putting out enough characters and content to make the GAAS model work for them.

Look at OW. New Map! Event! New Hero! Event! Repeat Ad Nauseum.

You have to keep people invested and interested.

 

[Mizerman]

It was the Walking Dead this entire time.

 

[Edzi]

They really stressed a few key things in the MvCi stream with combofiend earlier today, like how they wanted to allow players to express themselves with their characters, how they wanted there to be a lot of options and creativity, how they want movement to feel good and fluid, and how they want to make it clear that they listen to the players and want to keep them happy. I guess this is their way of saying they don't give a shit about SFV or the people who play it.

Their radio silence between updates doesn't help either. I think its always going to be this way since Capcom JP is always going to be in charge of development and subsequently in charge of the actual game. I have zero confidence they will ever improve enough on this front.

 

[myco666]

You guys remember double FM weekends? I don't.

 

[lucebuce12]

Remember when those premium costumes went on sale? I don't.

 

[Blueblur1]

So I see they updated Battle Lounge search sort order without telling anyone. lol That kind of thing is why I have no hope for substantial improvement.

 

[CountBlack]

You guys remember double FM weekends? I don't.

they had one then put on that "DONT ASK ME FOR SHIT" shirt right afterwards

 

[LakeEarth]

You guys remember double FM weekends? I don't.

I remember because I got a draw game during that weekend, which netted me an odd 40 FM. So my FM always ends with 40 or 90, and is a constant reminder of that one time FM was doubled.
