Personal opinion but I think more generic questions might give a better response. He’s probably a busy guy who doesn’t want to spill the beans, and giving him the chance to say one word answers will mean we get more questions…
I’d ask. (all could be confirmed with a yes or no - apart from 5)
Will Fei be getting any nerfs ?
Will any of Fei’s Ultra’s get updated?
Was that true about the tenshin start up speed yesterday?
How would do you rate Fei’s balance in the cast after this final release ?
What motivated you to make Fei better?
Very basic I know, but still very informative if we get answers. I’m looking at the way he responded in your first sesh and I just think as soon as you mention …" Fei is +2 on block after…bla bla." He’ll fob you off with a joke or a non-answer.
My 2 cents anyway, question 5 is the only one he’d need to expand on.
That’s some sick news Jason, but I don’t see well that crMK into rekka. I think it will change the Fei playstyle (hit and run) too much. I’m not sure I would like Fei to be super solid.
Hell yeah, if cr.mk can canceled into rekkas, that would be god sent!
Though, we shouldn’t be too happy…still have to wait for the final build to confirm everything.
Everything we hear now is just hypotheticals.
good shit, i dont main Fei Long but ive always enjoyed playing him and seeing other’s play him. buffing his command grab could be awesome, should have told Seth that Fei should be able to Tenshin - U1 lol.
Ok guys I just left Comic Con and I had a great interview with Seth. I did record it but fr some reasons my iPhone won’t play it back so I will upload at home and I hope it worked. If not all I can say is this, Fei got buffs and no nerfs. Seth saidso in the interview and I hope it will playback when I get home.
I really don’t understand you. It seems you still think that Feilong is low tier when He is TOP TIER(Mago’s words). You ask for buffs to fight Ryu when Feilong has advantage on this match up.
Before asking for buffs, the first you should do is learn to play with him and explote all his potential.
Shut up and get out! You have nothing productive to add here then do us all a favor and GTFO! Many here can tell you I know Fei Long as much as the next guy.
I’m still on the train and now that you mention it I also had my camcorde with me I could have done it that way FUCK! What I have is a audio recording and in about 15 min I should know if it recorded. First things is first I have to change my daughter’s pamper as she went with me to Comic Con
Seth also said Ken would get a new move and that Fei could combo into Ultra off his command throw, for all Seth knows the next revision of AE nerfs Fei. I’m sure what he’s told you is correct as of the latest build he has played, but considering AE is 2 months away and more loketests are coming I wouldn’t celebrate too soon… and if Sako got Cammy nerfed than Mago is going to do the same to Fei.
Guys Im so sorry but my iphone deleted the interview during the sync. Im so upset at the moment. But These are the things I remember Seth spoke about during the interview.
Jason "Ex Rekka, its almost pointless as it doesnt do that much more damage"
Seth “Yeah we are working on that”, he used Makato as an example of how they are boosting EX damage and they might add a little ex damage to Feis rekka
Seth "its been confirmed that cr.mk with go into a rekka, we also wont to make his FA the strongest in the game. We might speed up the crumble effect on his FA. We want Fei to have more combos from his FA.
Jason “how about his U1 after say FK>EXC>CW>U1, some character we get 3 others we get 2, is there a way to make it 3 across the board”?
Seth "well its not a problem with Fei’s hit boxes, its a problem with the other characters hit boxes. Thats something we really wont work on.
Jason “How about U2, its a great ultra but its a reaction ultra and better players are good at baiting it out. Is there a way wehre we could say cancel it like Abel’s”?
Seth “Well we are looking into reducing the recover so its not a free ultra”. He used Rose as an example, "she can us it as both offense and defense, we dont want Fei’s ultra to be used that way but were looking into reducing the recovery time. As for Abel just know his U2 will not be as powerful as it is now. (Big smile on my face when he said this)
Seth "One of the biggest problems we have with Fei is his CW, the animation and hit boxes are tricking and we had 2 inf. loops with it. We dont want that in the game so if anything the CW will be tweaked. His DP will most likely stay the same"
Jason "How about nerfs"
Seth "Fei is very good at this current moment and we are happy that players like Mago, Starnab and Inthul have brought more attention to him. We still feel that we can make Fei more effective and see him more often as he is one of my favorite characters.
Seth mentioned something like he wanted to make Fei’s pokes a little more effective and maybe give him more options into links from pokes. I really dont remember much as I was hoping my phone did its job and record the interview. I am so upset at this moment as I feel let down and I feel I let the forum down.
