Everyone in SFxT has a derpy ok damage combo with the chains, SFIV doesn’t. Personally I think this is a good thing, you shouldn’t need great execution to do a so-so combo. Ok it’s not perfect in SFxT but it’s the right idea.
I personally think SfxT is now dead. The hype is gone, I don’t want to learn anymore characters than I already have(which is about 3/4 the cast)
The game became too damn repetitive, every character has an optimized combo that requires very little execution. So what happens is you see the SAME combo over and over and over again, that after a while you will get bored by it.
In SF4 and marvel, the barrier execution atleast made each player’s gameplay unique. In SfxT it seems as if everyone plays any character the same way. Also it doesn’t help that anyone can hit confirm full combos from mashing buttons so easily.
Other than these DLC characters, I honestly feel like we’ve seen everything SF x T has to offer already.
OK, what? The only characters who have combos that don’t requite much execution are Lili, Ryu, Law, Hugo and Heihachi, IMO. Their combos are very linear, link into a hard/medium attack to get your damage, or use an EX to get even more damage. Characters like Ken, Akuma and Kazuya are hard to use, as their true links are a LOT harder, take the EWGF loop, or linking into Ken’s St.Hp off an St.Lp and then Ex Tatsu, and THEN another one frame link off that into St.Hp. Steve is one of the most link intensive characters in the game, then you get characters like Cammy who can jump cancel her normals into big damage, which still remains unexplored. And how can you play Kuma and Ryu the same way? Or play Dhalsim and Paul the same way? As you said, every character plays the same way, which shows me you can’t know too much about the game. And please, mashing into launcher is such a problem, what significant damage do you get off it? Um, NOT MUCH. This game may be dead for you, but it rises like Dark Phoenix for me.
Also, LOL at saying we’ve seen everything the game has to offer one day one of the DLC release. WE HAVEN’T SEEN ANYTHING YET.
Everyone is doing the same combos in Marvel as well, every zero is doing lightning loops, every Vergil is doing long combo into sword loops, every Sentinel is doing day 1 sent shit,same as wolverine,wesker and doom. SF4 might be a tad different, but every fei is rekka combo, yun 3s combos etc.

ryu, abel, chun, cammy, sagat, vega, rolento, poison, hugo…heihachi, kazuya, nina, jin, yoshi, lili, hwoarang, paul, law, marduk, ogre
are all characters that literally do the same combo everytime they get an opening no matter the player.
To me, every ryu just kinda all looked the same, every rolento, every hugo, every heihachi, every jin, every paul…etc.
You talk as if BIG complicated, 1-frame link combos are essential to be really good at this game when you clearly don’t have to be. It all boils down to doing as much damage as you can as safely as you can and then get the mixup after the knockdown.
The game pretty much devolved to hit confirming pokes/lights to launchers to get the knockdown, even in high level play. Also I can’t tell you how terrible it is to see my opponents and myself running away during the last 10 seconds of a match to get the timeout victory, at some point I just realized that it was just stupid that anyone will have to resort to that for sometimes 2 rounds off a best of 3.
I used to hate the game. I got it again and gave it another honest try and now I love it. Most fun game I’m playing right now. So ya, I think the game is moving forward. Let the haters hate.
Combo Editor/Quick Combo has officially killed this game online.
No matter what, everyone, EVERYONE (worth being called an FG player) should play Skullgirls.
Simply an opinion. Why are you talking about other games in this thread? Go back to your little forum. SRK and a small but vocal minority here on the forums already tried shoving that game down our throats. For 2 months up to release I couldn’t read a damn thread without someone talking up Skullgurls. I’m glad you like it. Go away.
Only because most of these hit-confirms are unsafe and go unpunished.
lol there’s more to that. sf4 is a better game because you can actually play sf and not worry about half of the cast jumping in on you because your anti-airs suck. also, footsies are much better and dynamic than sf x tk. in sf x tk you just throw out whatever safe poke to get the same result because of ez mode chains.
Vampire savior has chains. What an ez mode game.
vampire savior isn’t an traditional ground based game like sf. try harder next time. alpha 1 tried chains and we see how shitty that game turned out.
This will be my last post to you, as I find your statements quite absurd. I won’t even go into this talk of ‘every character has the same combo’ as it isn’t true, you’re deluding yourself if you think otherwise. Maybe people you play with just do launcher combos to get big damage (launcher combos do not do damage, we’re not Wesker here.) I will say this: When you run into a Kazuya player that can EWGF at will, come back to me. When you face an Ogre player who’s hitting his links, come back to me. And, when you run into a good Rolento, COME BACK TO ME.
Finally, the people I’ve been blessed to play against, it was all about the links, not this, LMH into Launcher rubbish. I implore you to play better opponents than yourself, as the damage in this game is crazy, yes, Steve, Kazuya, Hugo, Jin and Bob, I’m looking at you guys.
This is dedicated whining folks
I can’t believe people are still comparing this to SF4…its a whole new game…if you like AE so much go play that bro. Your not helping in any way at all. BTW I thought you said you were done with this because of the Ken nerf…lol:p

when did i ever say i would quit because of the ken nerf? please stfu.
Answer me this, D Dollars. You participate in these discussions, but you don’t like them game? Why bother spewing your irrelevant opinion then? Why can’t you let the people who enjoy this game ENJOY IT? Here’s food for though, what if somebody was always on the Ken forum, chatting nonsense about how Ken is broken with his Kara Throw, Step Kick and easy link in SF4. How would you feel?
half of the discussions i be in are replies to me from long along when i was playing this game. and during that time, i’ve left some thoughts on how this game can be better. so that is partly the reason why you see me here because people keep replying to me. if you want to stop, then stop replying back to me.
also, i let people enjoy this game. it’s not like i join every thread and say “this game suck nutz” and the like.
what i hate the most about this game: no decent anti-airs. everybody jumps in for free, especially the tekken characters with their low arc jumps
