This is the truth. Graphics don’t make a game. Fundementals of a game make the game.
I got to play CFJ today luckily and while the graphics may look a tad worse than CvS2, the playability is still there. It’s a good game, quit knocking it.
Can someone explain why everyone is talking about Jedah but not Ingrid? I’m just wondering because from her movelist and the explanations I’ve heard about her specials, it seems like she would be one of the best if not the best. Can anyone from Cali who’ve played this or Japan for that matter explain why no one complains about her? Thanks
its really hilarious how capcom fanboys have been flaming the heck out of snk games for its dated graphics and reused sprites for years, but when capcom does the same thing its okay to have dated graphics and reused sprites. freakin amazing. LOL
SSJGouki, the NeoGeo fanboys do the same thing though.
Ryu is mostly the same. Chun-Li is mostly the same. Yes, the dream-matchup crap is new…it will get old fast since most pros are 90% of the way to learning their characters.
SF is great. We have had lots of great SF games before CFJ and SF:AE. Both these games add nothing to SF, except the dream-matchup appeal. There’s nothing wrong with that - except that Capcom is releasing these mugen-fighters at the expense of a real fighting game that pushes the genre.
Carol Game Center in Tokyo put there CFJ tourney up, not all Jedah so look here peepz
That Gief vid makes my day.
It also proves my point. Nool > Gief. Nool however, isn’t proven to counter Urien caus that nigga in that vid was empty jumping all over the fucking place. Not ONE j.FP to be seen… A waste, really…
This logic is blatantly retarded, I don’t actually mean offense by that, I do respect you and all, but cmon, by that argument SF2CE-SSF2 sucked, A3 sucked, 3s sucked, MvC2 sucked and every other game of sequential upgrades sucked. I mean, all the pros knew how to play Guile in CE right? So it was exactly the same in HF right? I mean all they did was change the game speed and some slight move alterations right? Or wait, was that exactly what they did in CFJ? Oh yeah, it is. Even though you think that everything is the same doesnt change the fact that several characters must be practically relearned.
Not at all. I supposed I’ll have to break it down for you.
CE & HF: First of all, these games were yearly updates to SF2, compared to CFJ, which is Capcom’s first new fighting game in over two years. Even so, these games offered plenty when you consider that most SF players still hadn’t mastered the ins and outs of SF gameplay.
A3: Are you kidding? A3 offered radical gameplay differencs over A2 (air recovery, a real juggle system, isms, v-ism, etc.) The amount of time it took to “figure out” A3 is a measure of just how significant a release it was.
3s: You’ll recall that I do think that 3s sucks. 
MvC2: Radically new tag system, and a grab-bag of new gimmicks like snapback, DHC, etc. More than enough to keep the vs. heads busy for years – just look at the evolution of that game from B4 to today (from zoning and turtling, to runaway, to rushdown).
You’re entitled to your opinion – don’t let mine get your panties in a bunch. But it’s a fact that the last two fighters released by Capcom (AE and CFJ) are SF “remixes” that do less to push the genre than most previous SF releases. Given that it is coming on the end of a two year drought in releases, I find CFJ somewhat pathetic.
omg fags plz stop talking about wheel.

I think Ingrid is a pretty complete character. On my third time playing the game, I spent my entire time getting used to her. Hmmm, let’s see. She has fireballs, a DP, a counter that setups up juggles, mobility with CvS2 C-Groove, and really useful supers.
In my opinion, she’s probably the most versatile character in the game with the arsenal that she has. I just think people haven’t given her a chance yet or have seen what she can do yet. She does alright or better against Jedah since her strong and fierce fireballs that fly 30-45 degrees upward can help stop him from air dashing in. Oh and the wheel? Just roll. I have problems using her against Guile though but it seems like most of this game is matchup based anyway.
I don’t know if she gets my vote as the best character but she’s definitely the most fun so far.
I dunno if this was posted before, but this site has some vids showing various characters:
Anyone Knows if theres going to be Capcom Fighting Jam in California, San Jose?
OMG I hate when people post “I don’t know if this was already discussed in this thread but blah blah blah blah” Just fucking look rather then repost and shit. Not trying to come down on yes4me, butI’ve seen a lot of people do that shit and I figured it needed to be said eventually.
Oh, I don’t know if this was posted…
Wtf. Fuck off. Whats the harm in clicking a url to see if its new or not? I’m sorry we don’t have all day to read x amount of pages to see if a certain set of vids were posted.
Do us all a favor and make sure you make the same post above on every single person that has posted the same ole shit before alright?
Anakaris > Jedah
I’m sorry, but who the fuck are you again? Don’t be an asshole.
I was thinking “Mega Man 2”, but hey, you win some and lose some :karate:
Meanwhile, this thread is a great read. Ultimately, play the game (if you haven’t already), and time will tell. Much like the other Capcom affiliated fighting games over the years.
I see a lot of people hatin on Jedah, but I also see a lot of people who believe ways will be found to get around Jedah’s current tactics. While I don’t necessarily believe Jedah’s current tactics will be around for a very long time without counter tactics being developed against them, I don’t think you should count out Jedah in the long run either. If I had to bet, Id say Jedah will still always be a good character in this game, but I don’t think he is broken.
True(From what I have seen anyway)
Here are some scans from the new arcadia issue. It’s several pages long and even though its in japanese it’s worth looking at. The screencaps in the magazine are so crisp and clear, makes me wonder if the game looks like that IRL.
