Other characters can trigger it four seconds into a match.
the reasoning isn’t “asinine”, you just don’t want to accept that you shouldn’t be able to sit full screen and throw books for an entire round.
It’s entirely possible to play defensively while still asserting pressure.
You want to play keep out without taking any risks? Prepared to get your shit pushed in if you get tagged.
You also assert that the game “doesn’t let you play the way you want”. Maybe you’re just playing the wrong character then, this is sorta like complaining that Makoto in SFIV can’t zone full screen, there are characters with better zoning tools if you want to zone.
i mostly dont agree with mechanics like this either, but is saying stuff like “it’s telling me I can’t play the way I want to” accurate? doesnt it just increase the risk of that playstyle?
So I’ve noticed. After watching a few hours of videos of her last night I have a much better understanding of her strengths and what to do but it’s horribly offsetting to have the game seemingly punish me for playing the way I want to off the bat. I was pretty excited for the game all weekend and then playing on Monday just put me in a giant rut. I know more now, but I still dislike the Emotion system, imo the game would be better off without it.
The IG stuff will become second nature to me, 8 years of playing K-Groove in CvS2 will attest to that. EVEN then doesn’t the game lower your emotion when you don’t IG or when you simply block ‘too much’? I mean that’s the point of the guard bar, but you shouldn’t have it decrease quicker just for continuing to do so.
Yeah I got that smart ass, I just don’t like being told / reprimanded for playing however the fuck I want to.
Who the hell said anything about not taking risks? The whole reason to play keep away / defensive is to minimize them, you can’t be rid of risks. I’ve already gotten my ‘shit pushed in’, that’s what happens when you play zoners, who are you talking to?
Yeah, good analogy there. Zoner --> Rushdown versus Medium range zoner --> Long Range.
I’ll figure that shit on my own but AGAIN the game seemingly punishing for me it doesn’t help in doing so.
I suppose, I can just not give a shit about the low emotion (I sort of don’t atm) but it’s still upsetting. I’d rather learn what not to do via the match up instead of the game mechanics making it easier for the other guy just because I’m holding downback / back too often.
It increases the risk of running away, basically. You get Low Spirits faster from running away. As Konomi, if you open a match by back-dashing 3 times, you’ll hit Low Spirits. Can’t think of a reason as to why you’d wanna do that, however. You also don’t lose Emotions as fast blocking attacks as you do when you are running away.
EDIT: Chibi, at the moment, I feel we’re all just starting to get the feel for the game. I was getting rocked pretty hard by Guard Break over the weekend and in Japan too when I was there, but I’m slowly learning what to do about it. Do you have a copy of the game yourself? I’m sure after awhile we’ll all start to figure it out.
If I want to back dash 3 times I should able to, it is my choice. Whether or not it’s worth it should be dependent on the match up. I just think Emotion dictates things in a way that just simply doesn’t sit well with me, even though I will 100% adjust to it and alter my gameplan to get around it.
You need to work on that trait of yours bro, it is amusing that you can’t avoid to bitch about asinine stuff on almost every game here on SRK
Your complaint is as silly as if i went to the SG section bitching about how the IPS doesn’t allow me to do the combos the way i want. Game designers put stuff in their games to make you play the way they want, at this point you should know that venting your frustration only derails the threads, lol.
It’s just how I deal with games from the get go, I bitch and moan, I get used to it and you never hear a peep out of me again. My bad if it annoys you (and it’s still I trait of mine I dislike trust me) but it just comes and goes
What i want to know if is there a game that you have not bitched about something, lol.
I know that you love AH, but i also remember the amount of stuff that you complained about that even SK joked about it editing some of your posts, lol
Arguments is a common sight in the internet, not just srk. Just let it run its natural course. Saying “Shut the fuck up” is counter-productive on what you desire and is akin to throwing kerosene into the flames and prolonging the previous discussion
you can space and zone your opponents without retreating to trigger emotion.
I like this feature because you can zone but you need to be on you game and IG, in the end it will buff you.
Yes it is a cheap way to include crude dating sim mechanics, I would have preferred if high emotion was triggered
by independent actions based on characters. rough example Morgan whiffing arrows= emotion down.
Manaka’s offense isn’t bad, so I don’t know why you’d want to throw books unless you have a decent lead.
I’ll just put this out there. Youtube link
Midrange books -> Pressure -> Stuff -> Another book -> etc
Yeah I got that already, I’d just rather be punished by my opponent (which has happened plenty) than the game for not following ‘HOW TO PLAY MANAKA 101’.
Da fuk?
Bitch please, i didn’t get defensive at all, i just pointed how chibi always complaints for trifles.
The only time where i start shit is when people start posting ignorant/stupid stuff that is not true at all, so you STFU or at least think before posting shit, fucking idiot.
Because of my inherent laziness I’ve been slacking to provide those videos you may or may not love. The link below has every video that I could find as of yesterday.
It’s still very much a WIP but we’re hoping to have frame data for the game and filled out basic combos and strategies for each character sometime soon!
