cant wait to see wait the 2013 update will have wanna see christie and elena get just a bit stronger 
i severely disagreeā¦
not even because of lariat. Damage nerfs and splash nerf without a reasonable buff is what killed him
In theory it was a great idea. You get two of the greatest fighting games, a bit from each, with that great SF4 mechanics and then you add the MvC mechanics tooā¦ it should be a winner. And you know what if it wasnt for that god damn retarded gem system it WOULD be awesome. The more I play it the more Iām enjoying but the whole gems thing and why itās there at all baffles me beyond comprehension
Yeah, Iām still getting used to the spacing of his slow ass normals. Youāre Jack was good. Itās your Bison that will always give me trouble though. 
Crazy is a good thing right? ^^;; GGS yo
Dude, Iāve never been locked down in the corner by poison like that. Ggās
Why iām i running into so many players iāve faced today? I need to pay attention to names from now on. Lol
Yeah. Good Game man.
Yo kyosuke we need to get some matches in I want to give poison another shot. And the best way to learn her for me is to get smashed by her over and over again plus we havenāt played in what seems like forever.
You know what worries me about this patch? What happens subsequent to it. Letās say some issues arise that suck; why would Capcom balance the game further? There isnāt much financial incentive for them to do so, especially since the Vita version apparently sold only 5,000 copies on opening day in Japan.
To me it feels like 2013 is the last and only balance patch weāll get.
Sure thing! I probably wonāt be on Live till later, but, Iāll hit you up with a invite when I hop on.
Japan selling only 5,000 copies makes a lot of sense because no one has a Vita in Japan. I guarantee that if SFxT was released on the 3DS it would have done a lot better in sells.
Vita is a struggling system, fighting games in general are struggling, and Japan doesnāt even have a big SFxT scene.
Heck, even the great Tekken which Japan supposedly loves, only sold 9400 copies opening day on 3DS. I donāt see why SFxT would do more than that on a less successful handheld.
And, after seeing TTT2ās lackluster sales around the world, nothing surprises me anymore.
However, I will say thisā¦if SFxT turns out to be the best selling fighting game of 2012, even with all the chronic, year long hatredā¦I will lol.
PSVita is not exactly alive in general. They sell more PSPs than Vitas still.
Itās not the healthiest market.
Iām always ballin! just not in real life T.T
I realize thereās no market for the Vita in Japan, sure. But if Iām Capcom then Iām not exactly optimistic on the franchise nonetheless, know what I mean? SFxT performed worse than SF4 sales-wise, and whether we like it or not SF4ās sales are seen as the benchmark for success (I really hate that game, lol). Either way, looking forward to tomorrowās supposed blog update. Iām hoping theyāve taken some of our (re: my) suggestions to heart, lol.
by that benchmark all other games have failed. lol
SF4 has shipped 3.2 million units.
SSF4 shipped another 1 million.
Yet, even before DLC-gate, Capcom only hoped to ship 2 million copies of SFxTā¦no where near as many as the SF4 series. This shows that Capcom didnāt really expect SFxT to redo what SF4 did. The only ones who expected that were the fans.
After the UMVC3 fiasco, I donāt think anyone in their right mind expects SF4 level sales for Capcom fighting games.
BTWā¦yeah:
i doubt they did. I think most nerfs will stay and weāll still be pretty salty about it.
To get the gold you just have to keep fighting. It randomly pops out. But start using different characters in Rank. You do not want the Gold Crown. It is not worth it.
You will get the crown. If you have the Best Xiaoyu (Which I believe you do), you can get it no problem.
I honestly hope they reset this bracket. Iām been playing with diff characters trying to lose the gold crown. I really want to know how to get rid of it.
