Capcom doesn’t know how to balance their games. The whining from the public with SF4 is just embarrassing. Fucking spoiled brats wanting things changed because they can’t handle it. I, as well, blame SF4 for the “nerf/buff” bullshit.

I don’t think I’ve seen someone even react to the word Tribes on srk. I love 3S, in the fighting genre it’ll always be my sunshine (mostly because it stole my fighting game virginity). Ad for games as a whole though Tribes will always top the list. Nothing comes close to the experience of competitive ladder play in Tribes. Except 3S really.
Both are masterpieces.

The feeling of needing a game to be rebalanced is almost always due to not being very good at it yet. When you’re not great at a game certain characters seem insanely overpowered because you haven’t learned how to deal with certain things yet. That’s normal.
Asking them to make a balanced experience for all skill levels just isn’t remotely possible.
If you’re going to play as Sean or Twelve then gee golly gosh don’t complain. You chose to play a character who has a hard time with basically the entire cast. If you genuinely enjoy using the character/playing the game that wouldn’t be an issue.
No one is holding a gun to your head and forcing you to pick a character. If you can’t handle the endless staircase of the low tier way admit it and use someone who you can actually learn with. So when you beat yourself up trying to use Sean no one has to hear about it as if we don’t already know.
3SOE will I’m sure be left alone as it should be. On the topic of another iteration in the SFIII line:
If at some point this happens that would be the normal time to take a look and possibly tweak some things. I don’t see this happening but that’s simply how it works. If anything that could end up being SF5 although that seems like it will be a hideous wreck of a game (if it ever comes out).
3S doesn’t look old to me. The animation is better than ggxx, bb, etc. It’s certainly better than SF4. Sure it’s a bit low res by today’s standards but that doesn’t stop people from buying the new Megaman games. It’s ‘retro’.
There’s orange pie???

Now your seeing that oranges has less tools against the apple. But oranges go better with vodka. See when it comes to fruit its more of a team game and you have to use your allies to help improve each other and get the best of whatever is on point.
I want online mikado format, that would be so much fucking fun! Request-a-match between players would also be cool, if I wanted to see how person A’s character dealt with person B’s character and stuff. And yes, 3S is a beautiful game even today. A graphical overhaul is completely unnecessary, though I’m not opposed to one if it doesn’t change the atmosphere. 3S’ dirty atmosphere is what wraps everything up so beautifully.
Tomatoes trump apples and oranges by the way.
People get confused on how to pronounce tomato. To-MAY-toe vs. To-MAH-to. It’s in that one song.
Apples are more well-rounded, but oranges have better use at higher level (a.k.a. getting drunk). Apples are more popular by users, though.
Apples are used to get drunk. What do you think cider is. Apples are obviously superior.
Orange tic tacs are broken
Hum, Tebbo brings up a ridiculously good point. Plus, apples are used to get high too.
Fucking aye, apples > oranges.
I dunno man, orange peels help keep my bud fresh but I use the apples themselves to smoke it. I couldn’t live without one or the other…
this is why 3s when played in a team format is amazing!
It’s amazing how we’ve come to the point where 3rd Strike can be compared to fruit punch.
Without even trying to remember anything that has been posted before, let me try “rebalancing”.
Honestly, the game is fine the way it is, you can’t make a perfect game, there will always be at least one asshole who bitches about something.
But since this thread is called “How would you re-balance Third Strike?”, im gonna try it real quick.
Let me use Alex as an example. Why? He is the main char of 3s and the one you start on when you are player 1 lol.
- Give his Flash Chops more frame advantage. Something like 0,2,4,0 for lp,mp,hp,EX
- Maybe make his HK a bit safer
- Why the fuck is his Air Knee Smash blockable?
- Reduce startup on Powerbomb. Something like 2,3,4
- Give Slash Elbow less frame disadvantage. Something like -2, -6, -6, -4
- Meter for Hyper Bomb is kinda long, just like the startup. Shorter bar would mean less EX moves… Just reduce the startup to 1 frame.
- Change Boomerang Raid to something like Hugo SA3. First hit should be like a Slash Elbow so you can punish better. Keep the other 3 hits and the finishing throw the way they are, just change the first hit to a Slash Elbow.
- Make Spiral D.D.T. hit crouching opponents!
- Make it possible to connect an Air Knee Smash on cornered opponent after a successfull EX Flash Chop.
Thats all i could come up with in like 5 minutes. Start the hate!
Sounds like what Alex would’ve been like in SF4. Do you play sf4 young man?
God-tier.
Oranges pwn the shit out of apple. What little kid wants apple fucking soda? None, that’s who.
“How would you re-balance Third Strike?”
with my dick.
Look for senorial apple soda, you can always find it next to the dark green bottle with sangria.
Bomb ass apple soda. I like grape soda myself. Second place is strawberry soda.
top tier post…:tup:
I have played around 10 hours of vanilla since its release, so i don’t really play sf4 or ssf4.
What makes you think he would be like this in sf4?
Recovery on all his shit is too fast. And the start up you are proposing for his command grabs is insane, imo. Alex is big and rather clunky so I’d think his movements would follow suit.
