GA Thread Vol #2: Kingz of the Verbal Beat Down,Home to Gross Noobs and wanna be OG's

so if mvc2 had less characters it would be a better game even though in practice it would be the exact same game?

edit: i’d also like to point out that the number of viable characters is actually bigger than 8 and there are still more viable teams than there are viable characters on Super 4

It doesn’t really boil down to anything more to me than characters that I like being viable. =/

I’m sorry, MVC2 didn’t jive for me. I was there during it’s entire community development, and there were times that it interested me, but ultimately unless I was using a set of characters that were ultra good, I was dead. That and the fact that it literally takes 3 years of training mode time in order to fully become a solid palyer execution wise. Hell, probably even more than that.

I will point out that if MVC3 turns into that, I will stop playing.

I agree, and ya I may have stated it the wrong way, I have to reread and check myself. I knew what I wanted to say but I guess I said it the wrong way. It’s not far off from how I feel though. And Osiris i wasn’t trying to insult anyone or shit on their opinion, and I woulda loved for the debate to go in the right direction, but if they wanna insult me I’m gonna lose respect for them. I agree with what you’re saying. I’ll listen to what they have to say. Tsurael post was against my post, but he wasn’t rude and bein an asshole bout the shit.

well I can understand that.

I think MvC3 short of some glitches will remain an easier execution game but the number of viable characters will decrease over time (I already see it happening and the game has only been out for 10 days). I wanted to play ryu but I can tell he has nowhere to develop to and he is rather immobile so I was forced to give that idea up, even though he is viable today he won’t be viable in 2 years.

amen…see you guys tomorrow…

I remember kids turtling with mewtwo’s recover…lol

Lil’ boy you don’t even know what the fuck your talking about.

You posting in here instagating money matches, posting sarcasm in regards to things you can’t even speak about so why are you really here??

You never post,why you posting now other then to throw salt into convo’s your not even intelligent enough to speak on.

I’ve told you numerous times, STOP TRYING TO PLAY HARD ON FORUMS CAUSE YOU THINK YOU SOLID IN SOME VIDEO GAME YOUNG BUCK!!!

Talkin bout “Who you talking to”, Like he about to do something!!

If you not posting in regards to the subjects on hand, your the one actually trying to start shit so take heed to your own words buddy…

Stay Salty and quit trying to find a way to grow some drama over something that needs none, your level of intelligence doesn’t go that high, these convo’s require more then down back options sir

i’m not calling you out or anyone.
i’m just saying in general.
sometimes ego’s get inflated and we throw out insults and attack skill, but we all want the same thing and need each other to level up.
everyone i’ve met so far in the GA scene has been exceptionally nice.
i’ve only picked up the sticks last march and got competitive last summer, and i’m extremely glad that everyone i’ve met has opened up to help me get to where i am.

I hear ya but all I’ve gotten from ppl is shit talk and Branh. Only a certain number of ppl on here I can honestly say will correct me in the right way if I’m wrong and won’t jump to insults just because they have a high ass ego or they tryna show their dicks to everyone. It’s sad if I can straight name the ppl that I think are reasonable on this thread.

You beat me online, I don’t like you anymore :frowning:

LoL

SHIT’S SERIOUS!

:lol:

Yeah, the people in GA are mean. They’re always making fun of me. =(

As a former Ragna player, and a fairly competent one, if you ask around, I can assure you that just hitting the Drive button does absolutely nothing for him. It did absolutely nothing for most characters, and Drive was really just another attack button for most characters, like HP or HK or something. Plus, something most other 2D fighting game players don’t take into account is Instant Blocking. IB made things that were stupidly safe punishable. You have to know when and how to guard based on your situation. I don’t like the game much due to some dumb things in it, but I feel people should at least be fair towards it.

Lol, I think this is the first time I’ve been called exceptionally nice. :smile: Normally, people just call me an asshole or something. :shrug:

On the topic of MvC3, particularly regarding Thomas’s post, I can see where you are coming from, I really can. Even though I was a novice in MvC2, there are things I thought were better about the game over MvC3, mainly the Alpha Counters, DHC costing your character’s red life, and the fact that not almost every thing every character did was safe, among a bunch of other things. Honestly, though, as I mentioned before, I really feel that people are just hung up on the fact that it is named MvC3. I mean, it almost seems as if it would be ok if it were named differently. And, I feel that some of the complaints are a bit asinine and arbitrary, such as execution. Is it honestly THAT bad that execution is made easier? All that has happened is that more people are able to do advanced things in less time in training mode. You people make it sound as if an infinite being difficult made it any less retarded when it landed on you. Dead is dead, regardless of how difficult the combo or tactic was to execute. This argument is honestly just pretentious and elitist bullshit. If we are talking about SHORTCUTS in particular, then yes, shortcuts suck, as they mess up a lot of moves for MANY players, both pro and amateur.

But, one thing I feel shines with MvC3 is that there is possibility right now for a lot more diversity in team formations. No matter how you slice it, having less than 20% of a cast being tournament viable out of 56 characters is ridiculous and uncalled for. NO MATTER HOW YOU SLICE IT, if you look at MvC2 from a gaming aspect, the love for the game makes no sense in accordance to what people normally complain about in a game. Horrible balance, huge game altering bugs and glitches, etc. Again, since everyone tends to ignore me, and probably did not read this, if these aspects were in ANY other fighting game ever made, people would immediately shit on it. However, people just happened to accept it with MvC2. The same blind emotion is being put toward hating MvC3, as well. I remember A LOT of people not liking MvC2 that much and questioning its validity because it was so different from its predecessors, but look what happened. Not saying that will happen with this game, or even that I want it to, as I am fairly lukewarm about MvC3, but it is something to think about.

Bottom line: People need to get over themselves. This is a different game, not MvC2 : The New Edition, and it really should be viewed as such, honestly. The MvC franchised was just used for Capcom to make some more money on a game they knew people have been waiting on. They do not care about you, your feelings, or if you are a so-called “OG” in MvC2. Honestly, I’m sure your face was the LAST thing on Capcom’s mind when they decided to produce this game.

Ya I completely agree. If only you were the first person to comment. I see where the MVC3 side is coming from now thanx. Look guys. A fuckin REASONABLE post thank you very much.

Completely agree with this. With a character like Jin it’s the same thing, his drive gets used to extend some combos but otherwise it’s just another set of normals. Saying you press drive to instantly gain an advantage is no different from saying you press ANY button to instantly gain an advantage, because they all can.

However I do definitely see where Anotak is coming from. The hitstun scaling is quite similar to BBCS, which is why there are loops and such. It’s a good system for preventing infinites though (assuming you don’t turn around and give dozens of specials enough untechable time to combo into themselves…)

Marty, you’re an asshole.

i also waited 10+ years for the follow up of SF3:3s and what do i get?? SF4. Fuck you Capcom!!!

exhales heavily

i feel better now.

but,

i do feel the “OG” peeps tho. Shit EVERYBODY know how i hate SF4 and i play boxer…:bgrin:

but fortunately or unfortunately, this is the way fighting games are being made nowadays folks…take it or leave it.

Dont like MvC3?? Dont play it. Simple as that. God knows you can invest the time in something better than playing that game(or any game)…like keeping that 3.7 GPA…

anyway,
the choice is your Gentlemen. Accept how there developing games now or play something else or do dont play them. i’ve come to terms with SF4…

throw will always beat jab.(thus breaking the triangle of throw/hit/block)
invincible move(with 2 bars)> anything.
if i land ultra, you will have ultra.
etc,etc,etc.

my thoughts on MvC3?

game is hella fun even tho i suck monkey balls and ass at it.
Sent is fun.
I didnt know we had Killer Instinct characters in the game(Dante)…1-800-dial-a-combo.
X-Factor = SF4 ultra(X-Factor is worse tho…killing 2 characters…sheesh…worse than mvc2 double snap)

Can we all just agree on “fuck you capcom” and get back to playing?

remember marty…yipes is getting paid…

:rofl::rofl::rofl:

cant wait to see what free shit I get in MK9…

Didn’t say I was the best Ken player, only that I was the best Ken in GA. Hint: My name is Kenneth
