I saw a thread in front page that is like to capitalize on; capc has realized their mistake and are so far showing signs of listening to fans again… With the hints of CvS2 getting some true love we makin again
A game like AE2012 that has characters worth something. The reason I hate SF4: The game isn’t balanced. The characters are all made to be mediocre, so it gives the illusion of balance. There’s no reason a Gief player should ever need 6 SPDs to win a match. 4 should be the max (as an example). Real balance would be like Guilty Gear - where every character has multiple archetypes that they can freely move between - e.g. Venom is rush/zone, Millia is rush/lockdown, Ky is pressure/rush, Potemkin is grappler/long range poke, etc.
Instead, they just take away this or that from characters rather than giving other characters more tools. I hate that attitude. Why did Ryu have his c.mk nerfed for AE? It was fixed, but it should have never been on the table. Why does Chun keep getting random nerfs, but she’s not OP? I think it’s really stupid to keep nerfing everyone instead of the opposite. Why have Dan be the benchmark? That attitude has to go.
That said, you know what would really be a step in the right direction? Either take Chun’s B+MK out, or make it a different command… This way she’ll have a reliable anti air… hold back to block and tap MK for what would be her normally s.mk anti air…
With regards to the new Vampire Savior game they are working on, they really need to change it from how VS1 and 2 currently work. Pushblocking should be a simple input and definitely not random. If they feel it might be too good, give it a meter requirement of some sort. If the game will center around pressure (especially jump pressure), they need to improve the hitbox of anti-airs and the reward for landing them(more damage, more untechable time for the opponent, more juggle opportunities, whatever it will take). Anti-airing currently doesn’t seem to be a good deterrent to pressuring. Also, don’t screw up Anakaris.
UMVC3 needs a patch.
Honestly though, I don’t think we need many new games at the moment…they need to improve currently existing ones.
-bring back commando as your mascot, he was dat dude
-Bring back sprites, KOFXIII made yall look so bad
-Make sure MvC2 with online play makes it to the next gen, or at least keep MvC2 servers up for current gen.
-MvC origins needs replay sharing
-kill megaman
Can I get a GOOD hi-res Mega Man game? Inafune can’t be the only man on the planet capable of doing something with the character. I just don’t get it. Canceling Legends I understand, but the side scrolling Mega Man formula CAN’T be that damned hard to figure out. Hell since the industry is a bunch of copycats now they can even do it Metroid/Castlevania/Shadow Complex style, but keep the platforming elements.
