Yeah, I think NRS games in general work better on pad. I used stick for Injustice just because it was convenient to be able to use the same controller on every system… but for MKX everyone is playing on PC or PS4 anyway. It’s way more convenient to block using a shoulder button on pad then to fudge around with where the hell you should have a block button on a stick.

finally done, first time i haven’t cracked the plexi when shoving buttons in

kim legend was, and still is my favorite person in the fgc.

now you can harness all their power!

Mkx is not gonna be on xbone?

Edit, just saw it!!! Never mind

Yeah I just said that because a few majors have already confirmed they’ll be running it on PS4. Tourny organizers polled communities and the results were overwhelmingly for PS4.

I’m hoping locally it works out that way too so we don’t have a bunch of controller issues, which, as seen by today’s evo news, is a pain on the new gen.

Pretty sure the game will end up running better on PS4 too (1080 instead of 900 is my guess), since all playable builds of the game have been presented on PS4s.

the problem is if you want to play a game other than sf4 and mkx as well as one of those two games you will need to carry 2 sticks unless ps360+. That’s an inconvenience for overseas participants.

All PS4 controllers are backwards compatible, at least. So that only matters if you’re signed up for Marvel or KI.

Add me heroes. GURG#1107

i got snake eyez to sign a 360 around the stick so i can spin faster

The last 2 NRS streams have showed the game on Xbox One,

I was pretty sure that tournys would us PS4 for the game anyways. As long as it runs the same on both systems I’m happy. MK9 and injustice ran like shit on PS3 and it took them forever to switch to 360, hopefully we don’t see the same thing happen again.

I took holidays the week of the games release, so I really want to have a week one Get together for anyone interested in playing the game, I’m hoping to have a PS4 as well by launch, so I can play people on both.

When does SF4 come out on PS4? Seems pretty ballsy of a move to me.

They announced USF4 on PS4 at the same time they announced SF5.

Pokken Tournament gameplay trailer:

So when did Pikachu learn Mishima style martial arts?

Pikachu was probably was taught by Kuma?

Pokken sounds fucking great because tekken is a good game except that it’s got 10 years of built upon systems that make it extremely difficult to be good at. Maybe pokken will be that version of tekken that casuals can pick up and actually play.

Also, what’s the deal NRS ? You don’t want to release a demo of MKX and that seems weird and shady to me.

where did you see that, scott?
they released a demo for injustice and mk9 iirc.

maybe it’s because they spat out demo versions for media release and don’t want to bother making another build for public, focusing on the polishing of the actual finished product?

besides, when’s the last time you saw a demo for almost any new fighting game lol

When’s the last time you got a demo for anything? Companies don’t do it very often at all anymore because research shows they hurt, not help sales.

I doubt it’s anything other than related to this. Every single person you can find who has played demo builds of the game at events etc has nothing but praise. I can’t find anyone, in the industry or not, who has had anything negative to say about playable builds of the game (which have been at lots of events).

But then look at things like Order 1886, and The Evil Within, where no one had anything good to say about early builds… and then the games come out and they’re both terrible ;).

I definitely use demo’s to affect my decision on whether I buy a game or not. There’s been a couple of occasions where I didn’t buy a game because I didn’t like my experiences with the demo.

Honestly though, why would I care if it affects their sales? At this point it’s hard to trust any game reviews so I can’t count on them. thank god for digital purchases or I’d be stuck in a “pre-order or die” loop.

Like I said, it seems shifty to me to not release a demo. It should not be spun to say that they’re doing me a favor by putting that time into the game.
