Could anything have saved SvC?

[renvi]

Graphics… no need to say more.
Characters… Zero,Mars People? Athena,Red Arremer?.. GTFO!
System… where is roll, and run or dash? since there is no airguard then where is parry or just defence?

the only thing I like about this game, is the intros and Dan!

[Rhio2k]

I enjoyed MotM the better here. Even more than CVS. Tag Team fighting, 3 on 3 fighting, a decent cast(including K’),

…K’ wasn’t in it…

[Jushiness]

…K’ wasn’t in it…

yeah… o.O

[System_1]

I enjoyed the cast actually. If CAPCOM did it u wouldnt have had

first off new sprites
not Demitri, most likey a recycled Morrigan sprite woulda replaced him and I agree with Onslaught. Demitri’s sprite kicked ass!!!
Tessa, Red Arremer, Violent Ken, Zero, Dan with new moves
yeah we woulda saw like Sakura,Zangief, or some SF b/s char as usual. And they wouldnt put in Goenitz, Mars People Goddess Athena or Shiki. CAPCOM doesn’t like to do things differently they woulda kept
KOF Athena, Hoahmaru, King, Yuri etc.

the only complaint I have on the controls are charge motions which I have gotten comfortable with. Except ones liek Guile flash kick super

and the overall speed made it feel laggy offline lol. For example, Vega I didnt feel was very fast at all. And Ior was liek a terd in speed lol

Def. better hit boxes. For a throw or a standing close attack ur sprites had to be completely over-lapping

MAX MODE as well, either make it good for everyone since some ppl had no max cancels or just get rid of it

there soem things that felt real out of place in the gameplay but I still liked it
Hugo - Clap to command throw lol or comboing into Command throw for that matter. CAPCOM isn’t big on that anymore lol
Kara cancels were cool but not entirely useful
the cross-up’s, espcially with fireballs lol. ([media=youtube]ru9xSPXkceE&mode=related&search=[/media])
Shotos - crouching Bx4, db + D to fireball. Liek the ultimate shoto poke string lol

though SNK is also known for not being able to cancel alot of characters crouching LK in this case
Bison, Hugo, Balrog etc

Actually I think if Capcom did it, we would have had CVS.

I for one liked the card fighters clash games, but I’m weird like that.

I realize that by even posting this, people are gonna think I’m a total jackass…but what the hell :wgrin:

So…I think there’s some things that could’ve been improved about this game. The charge moves, for example, are kinda crap. But, I’ve never really understood why everyone hates this game so much. I actually enjoyed playing it quite a bit.

I’m seriously curious…what ruins this game for everyone?

hyper sped up bustar wolf… “are youokaybstwlf”

also the SF characters feel super awkward on snk engine… >>

[Atb_555]

Man I was pissed when they didn’t include K’ in the roster for CvS2. CvS3 would have been so sick!

Hell, it wouldda kicked more ass if the tag battles were similar to Marvel SH Vs. SF. Raging Storm to set up, then Psycho CRUSSHAAAAAAAAA!!!

Nah mate you might as well play Mugen.

[Lantis]

maybe

Still SNK did more with ken than capcom ever did.

You had Evil Ryu, Evil Evil Akuma :lol: hell you even had a cyber dan :lol: but poor old ken never got anything.

Uhhhh, but why? Why is it that it’s “cool” to make an “evil” version out of someone? Hell, it is understandable from a canon point of view in the case of Ryu and Akuma, and even Dark Sakura is sorta considered as a tongue-in-cheek joke, but Ken? Talk about hella random…and unnecessary.

As an ST fan, this post depresses me.

Seconded.

[System_1]

K’ wasn’t in NGPC MotM? Are YOU sure? nvm. He wasn’t. Thought he was. lol

Nah mate

No, I’m just Honest Monk, not some mate-ing friend of yours and…

you might as well play Mugen.

Not exactly. Summon Geese for a special move then go in with the super Psycho. All this in black, and blood red, and off- piss yellow, and any other 8 bit color you can think of.

But Leona rivaling Guile? Someone’s gonna go home and be a family wife with a yellow updo and army boots.

[Snowman]

Chill man, saying mate is common for english people. It’s not meant in a literal term.

thanks the gods he’s welsh

[Atb_555]

Actually its dumb London talk, lol.

Well, the SF characters felt a bit different, but at least half of that was because of the differences in the fighting engine. For that matter, the SF characters feel different in the various capcom games as well.

I still don’t really get it. From what I’ve gathered over time, it sounds like most people didn’t like it because they thought that game wasn’t really balanced well. But that can be said of most of the fighting games.

Most of the posts in this thread seem to bag on the style of some of the characters sprites, or the lackluster sound f/x. But certainly that can’t be the entire reason why people don’t like this game. Is it?

[System_1]

People are shallow like that.

Uhhh…no. SvC is broken in unfun, frustrating, and retarded ways.

Sounds to me like you’re trying to find something remotely redeemable in SvC…in which case I suggest you cease and desist NOW!

[Xorcist]

Let’s just say this… the game is fun to play with certain characters, but only in single player mode. I, for one, was really glad to see Shiki in 2D, gave me some hope for the future. And then they followed her up with Asura in NGBC (though I didn’t like how he played). But sadly Gandara is still no where to be see. He’d make a kick-ass mid-boss if NGBC2 ever get’s made.

There’s no way SvC even comes close to a competition level fighter, it’s just too broken. Which is why, I guess, people just didn’t bother with it after the first dollar. Fun to pass the time, sure… but outside of that, not really worth the money based against the other games available at the time. The only real initial draw it had was the fact it was a cross over title.

P.S. I didn’t mind the graphical style at all, I just think the Capcom characters got the long end of the ugly stick on this one.

[Return_of_Shiki]

I enjoy using Mr. Karate, Earthquake, Goenitz, and Shiki.
Demitri’s new sprite was awesome.
I really like the Crystal Shrine and Power Generator themes.
It was nice also to see someone try to implement Zero, Red Arremer, Mars People, and Goddess Athena in a fighting game. Good to see Tessa in a crossover too.
The character portraits were nice and the dialogues were enjoyable.
The Exceed move was an interesting idea.

…And that’s all the positive things I have to say about SvC.
