SFxT General Discussion #3 - Still Alive

Well… I’ll stand by that Phoenix Wright is a fun character to play, even if he may not necessarily be effective.

Megaman and Pacman in this game however… just… no.

Yeah, um…no. :rolleyes:

But I agree, joke/exclusive characters are bloody useless. Alas, Cole and the others weren’t put in the game out of goodwill. So the whole argument is pointless anyway. It was a business deal, a sales boost. Naught more.

It depends. I don’t mind joke characters at all, and even if they weren’t there, it doesn’t somehow guarantee that your favorite character will make it to the roster anyway.

I just hate when joke characters or guest characters have absolutely no chance or are really, really bad even for joke characters… or don’t even relate to the game.

Example: I don’t mind Dan in AE. He can compete. Maybe not well, but you’re not pressing a “you win” button by selecting him at all.

Ironically, a sales boost that didn’t help much and IMO backfired. >___>

I don’t even think of Cole as being a joke. It’s actually a decent character. His stupidly low health is what’s keeping him down. 2013 patch should increase his health to 850 at least.

I really don’t see why not. He’s capcoms star character and its clear plenty of people still like him and want him in the game.

I hope players will still consider Kuma a joke character, especially after the 2013 update.:badboy:

Kuma is a joke character of the best kind. People see all the trailers and such of him farting all over the place and think “lol this guy.”

Then they actually play a good Kuma and end up throwing their stick across the room screaming “fuck this guy!”

His headbutt is getting +50 on damage, and he gets a solid crossup…:rofl: I gotta start playing him more, especially with that weird ass alternate costume.

I never thought of Kuma as a joke character I always thought the joke character in this game was paul

Well the joke characters/exclusived were made in the good will of being used along with scramble battle(that thing we don’t use).

Nothing wrong with casuals having fun. Still though, I would liked to had seen more work put into them.

Cole can be decent if you ignore the his health.

Kuma is actually viable. I love it when so called “joke” characters turn out to be a legitimate threat.

Seriously, that alt is way freakier than I gave it credit for. I forget who but someone made it all black with glowing orange eyes.

Fucking nightmare fuel.

And yeah, because that headbutt needed 50 more damage. That grab is going to be so ridiculous. If I had the patience and my characte rlist hadn’t grown so much I’d play him again.

BTW, loving Juri/Nina. Juri’s just such a good teammate for so many people.

Kuma is all gimmicks! :sunglasses:

Don’t kill me, Sethlolol.

Does this game become Knock Down X Vortex in the next patch? With the nerf to rolls and if people get their auto correct game up. Being knocked down will be SCARY. Especially when every character can chain into sweep. You disliked Rufus before? Wait until he dive kicks your roll. You thought you Akuma had forgotten about your pathetic soul? Well Demon Flip Palm says hi. Or am I seeing this all wrong?

Haha, that might have been my buddy CannibusCureAll, he made it all black with red eyes. When he gets the win with the Bear, you see the giant head at the win quote screen, when it goes to character 2, it gets closer.:wtf:

You should have stayed in my Endless Room last night and saw what I did to The Mamba and Toez little double A+ team:rofl:

You’re seeing it right but vortexs can still get blown up by alpha counter and Lili’s counter. Oh, don’t forget everyone’s favorite rich girl is already a vortex character. She’s just going to be mad stupid come patch. matches like jack-x will be out right retarded for him. Lili can pursue you many ways and put you back in a hard knock down state and continue her vortex. Pretty much she’ll rape the cast since most of them have shitty nerfed normals. >=D

Nerfing the roll was a bad idea imo. I like that you were in trouble if your opponent anticipated it and if they didnt it was actually a very useful tool. I wouldnt mind characters having vortex’s in the game but I liked having a good extra option on wake up.

Lili rape Gief? What black magic are you using? :stuck_out_tongue:

I guess Capcom were trying to sate people’s hunger for guaranteed setups, AKA, AE2012. The game will look mightily different and I think with health recovery being slowed down, matches might end a lot faster.

Also, to make you guys be scared. How’s this for a though:

Get knocked down by Kazuya, roll then eat a full EWGF combo, sounds delicious right?

I know what you found, you sick bastard.

Kuma’s alt makes him look like a prop for Silent Hill…

I wonder, by the time SFxT has fully run its course and Capcom felt the need to do another VS game, which company should they challenge next?
