I will rage if you cant have a triple claw team!:mad:
Damn I’d love to join this, but I feel inadequate since I’m like…G2-E XD and probably one of the only pad-playing Vega’s here since I can’t use a stick efficiently for toffee.
i am a pad player and i can beat top players, i have got a fightstick, but i am crap at the moment people fear my claw and always say that i have got great claw.
Ps3 Yellow Light (it my brother i just use it must time) :crybaby: help
read the whole post…u dont have to be G1…and playing with a pad is great works for me except my pad messed up…wish they made a Vega pad
high 5 to pad-players I always have my mates telling me “Use a stick, or you fail.” Glad to know I’m not the only one out there who thinks otherwise 
So, would you mind if I joined or?
no but u gotta send me an add titled vegas list so i can determine if ure good enough…see u soon
NEW CONFIRMED UPDATE ! VEGAS CHANGES (its what weve all been waiting for guys)
WTF Crapcom…are you serious?
Shows how much you really pay attention
Yep u finally got why Vega is a really weak character…its cause my claws allways fallin off…this is mostly what all Vega players have been cryin about last couple of months:bluu:…ugh
**What Players Say : **
“Hope they don’t really think vega claw dropping too fast is his main problem…”
“So, they think that making Claws weapon come off at a slightly longer time, will buff him enough to get out of crap tier?
Someone high up must really hate Claw.”
"Hahaha I loled at vegas main problems… and where is his poor health, quick dizzy and no options ??? "
"Also I think it’s funny that Capcom thinks Vega’s main problem is his claw coming of to soon. Personally I would like to see my frickin Housenka connecting to every character after juggle (especially that little bitch Cammy and the rocket ****** Akuma) and the removal of the unbelievably retarded df.lk, which probably has created more divorces than alcohol and aids together. "
Vega: “I’m sorry Capcom that my claw is causing you so much stress. Perhaps you should just remove it - and nerf me back to dust?”
"Hope they’re doing more to Vega then that.
crosses fingers "
“Claw better be atleast midteir. i dont even need godlike teir for him. just some invisible frames”
“Are you kidding me?? vega losing his claw fast is like 0.0001% of his being a low tier… The lack of invincibility frames in his ex-moves namely ST and FBA is his problem”
“Oh wow, I am so glad that with Vega’s extremely weak mix up game, wake up option, and no reversal option, we finally got a REALLY DURABLE claw. it is indeed fantastic news.”
"HOW ON EARTH IS KEEPING ON THE CLAW FOR CLAW LONGER A BIG DEAL "
“A lot of people are still bitching. Well if you want to mash out an invincible move play Ryu. Its as simple as that.”
“Some of us complaining about Claw know his every move, it’s frame data, what it beats, what it loses to, etc. We know what traps are pains and what traps are just gimmicks. We know the fooking matchups.
And claw still is ass. Having the worst reversal in the game, an ultra almost useless and with terrible damage, and priority that is lower than Hitlers on ex-moves, not to mention mask loss makes his stamina the second lowest in the game, and, oh yeah, second lowest stun rating in the game.Vega players have a right to complain.”
When I saw this over on Eventhubs, my head met my keyboard.
His claw coming off isn’t a bleeding problem!
Though I fully agree on the EX FBA and ST, the amount of times I’ve gone to do EX FBA then got a fireball/light punch to the face and been hit out of it is unreal @_@, EX ST, I haven’t had much of since I chain it off a light so they’re already in the air, but I’ll take your word for it since I’ve been hit out of the startup when just doing it normally by someone who can just sit there and mash a light punch.
I think a bigger problem than his claw is his mask coming off, it lowers his stamina, and the fact that input leniency means that on a D.pad and have 2 EX bars, you’re susceptible to it accidentally coming off has had this happen and it irritated me to no end.
So, Capcom, how about the low stun rating, the low damage output, the sucky ultra that’s a twat to land, the lack of invincibility, the nerfing of his speed from previous games. I think we could all go on forever with the amount of fixes he needs, so I’ll stop here.
Kamisky:
Oh and I’ll send the add request later on when I’m home from college (My skill level is kinda tat, so I don’t expect to do brilliantly against you, just a fair warning before you go “Good lord this is bad,” XD)
Its ok Francy everyone deserves a chance bud
Thanks
At least then if I lose, I can learn a lot from it because I can take note of where I screwed up and things that I could improve on by watching what you do aswell (If you don’t mind that.)
I actually like losing against people better than me XD Weird, I know.
LOL… they didn’t say it was his only flaw. Keep your head up.
Add has been sent ^_^. At the moment, I’m not online a major amount because I’m snowed under college coursework. Though as of tomorrow, it’s the holidays so I’ll be able to get in a match some time next week. Hope that’s alright.
@Headtap: Oh my hopes are getting higher with certain little things (Like reduced startup on RCF) and Cosmic Heel coming out faster. But he needs some invincibility somewhere XD
Unnamed source confirms both mask AND claw take longer to knock off. Dunno about the other changes though, you’ll find out soon enough.
Wow Ive heard about the claw…but not the mask?I dont even know why Capcom screwed with Vega in SF4 … linking his power to his mask and claw…why would u find things to make a weaker character even weaker…Vegas a boss …they needa have him act like one…seriously why Vega? Couldnt they have screwed with Bison? or better yet Sagat…all bosses are powerfull…why not Vega Capcom?..really discriminating man
it doesnt take a scientist to figure that vega’s design is pretty complex to balance.hell i would say that capcom has come the closest with regards to getting vega right in sf4.as of now he certainly isnt as bad as you think he is.just a few more tweaks and he would be fine.
Are you trying to say that he was broken in previous games or something?
In SFIV he lost:
His speed
His damage output
His stamina dropped
He wasn’t even THAT bad in SF2 or even Alpha series. Sure he was quick but he could still take a pasting from shoto users, Sagat and pretty much anyone who could dominate with higher damage.
I wouldn’t really say he’s complex to balance, He just needs to have a little more stamina and a bit quicker on the framerate. And for the love of god get rid of the mask-knocking off, don’t care too much about the claw, but the mask is just irritating. There’s nothing good that comes out of it.
Actually there is some good that comes from losing your mask. You get 10% extra dmg output. Now losing your claw on the other hand… has no benefits to my knowledge, and I really dislike its disadvantages. It would have been better to just have him keep his equipment on for the whole match like the rest of the cast (not including cody). Imagine how it would be if it was the other way around for some characters; How about having Sagat lose his eye patch and lose 25% health… that sounds way more fair to me.
Haha right on! never thought of that one…lol…or better yet a crouching med punch should loosen one of his balls and make it fall down to the floor and the second jab should bring the other one down…lol…then his taunt should be …I am powerless instead…haha
^ You have no idea how much this post made my morning after just getting KO-ed by a Sagat player XD
On a more topical note:
Yeah 10%…compared to the 25% Buff that the opponent gets. Somehow, I’d rather keep my mask on XD
There’s not a lot of good you get from losing his claw since it damages his range.
If only I had SFIV for my PS3, then I’d maybe attempt to join this fledgling little gang you have going. By any chance, do any of you fellows live near Auburn, NY? I’m so desperate to find good offline competition.
