SF5 Lounge: Idom Wins. Only Poison is Woman enough for Capcom Cup

I wouldn’t see Seth stealing moves pointing to SFV’s finality. When Seth steals moves with VS1, he literally steals their rig it looks like, so if they add new characters they’d probably just copy/paste their animation on his model.

Although I gotta admit… 40 characters is a lot. If Seth was the last, I think we’d be okay, especially since we still don’t see so many characters used in tournaments.

Before I get called overdramatic again, I’m gonna state more clearly what I meant earlier in response to this post.

I honestly believe Capcom should take at least 5 years off from Fighting Games. Yes, if more competent they could easily turn around and make a solid game with a good cast and a great production staff but it’s quite clear that it’s something they do not have under their banner when it comes to Fighting Games right now. What they need to be doing is taking a couple of years to let certain staff go, all the while watching to see the trends both good and bad in the FG industry while the other developers forge ahead. See where they fucked up bad, see where they did well and hell see where they actually did better than others. Then, with renewed focus they readjust the production staff, hiring new blood and then with the remaining time before starting they really hammer down a legitimate focus on what they want to be doing and where they see themselves in the grand scheme of Fighting Games.

Trying to sweep SFV away in a year or two and start again is likely just gonna lead to a plethora of issues again, albeit in different ways since they’ll be too busy chasing what they think players want without actually putting any thought into why that is or how to make it a legitimate reality.

And unlike 7 or so years ago, they have no need to rely on making a FG anytime soon. Literally all their other IPs are landing and are big hits. They have the benefit of time that they haven’t had when it comes to FGs in quite a while. They should make use of it.

Yeah, I wouldn’t be too disappointed if the roster was finished. I’d be happy if they simply made way more of the cast viable so we actually get to see these characters compete.

Can you test if Abigail can cancel into the tire from anything? It kind of looks like he can cancel the recovery of a mashed Abigail punch into it so it might be really good for chase down.

So just to make sure I got it right, when the SFV update is 24 gigs it’s not adding another 24 gigs to the total size of the game it’s just replacing stuff? Cuz I got the notification that I’m running low on harddrive space

Yes it’s replacing old data.
