SFxTekken General Discussion Thread

I’m pretty hyped about the game so far.

Read in one of the impressions that you still can’t rapid fire cancel into specials (you have to link like SF4), which I never liked. Also, the HUD style is cool but some of the colors made it tough to see exact life levels.

But those are nitpicks. Hope Rufus is in it. Bob and Rufus = team fat white guy.

Marduk with that chest hair indicates no zangief unless he becomes a DLC character, so I think Bob replaces Rufus

Bothewring Capcom From now about the netcode.

3 times they have been givven the benefit of the doubt. Not anymore.

It sucks until proven otherwise.

I hope Alex and Hugo make it in, if any other grapplers. They are the bomb.

I thought they said late 2011 for SFxT, 2011 for TTT2 and 2012 for TxSF.

I think that’s because the general consensus is that we want a break away from SF4’s gameplay mechanics and turtling, and something that rewards offensive gameplay.

I have my doubts with those juggles. You just know that some truly broken shit will be found with that. Also; dudes who want Juri in this game just want something to jerk off to.

Or because Juri is fun to play as? I think her gameplay, along with possibly Viper would be good for this type of game. She’s not in my top 5 characters I want, but she would be a nice addition. Nice blind, immature assumption though.

I think Bison might be revealed next with Jin since they are bosses of their party and get a little feud going on, Akuma hopefully with Heihachi, Sagat vs Steve, or Bruce vs Balrog, you know boxing vs Muay thai? I think Kuma + Blanka, both are beasts, Either Lei or Zafina > Juri/Gen

Just my thoughts

i wouldnt hold my breath on that

Street Fighter X Tekken Interview: Captivate 2011 (PlayStation 3) - GameSpot Video

Ono interview and more gameplay footage.

Yo Balrog and Blanka really shouldn’t be in this game. Especially Blanka. Maybe Sagat too.

Just my thoughts.

Agreed 100%. Capcom won’t do it, for bizarre nonsensical/ethnocentric/bureaucratic reasons.

Marduk with that chest hair indicates fuck all other than Marduk is a) in the game and b) has chest hair.

do you expect something intelligent from him?

you know what is the sad part, that even when we complain and hate how capcom fucks us with their shitty netcode we wouldd buy this game even when we know before hand that the netcode would blow

the only thing that i hope is that now that namco is using ggpo, they would show to capco how to do it and would shut them up with their craptastic excuses that its cant be done in 3d games

Wasn’t too sure about this game when I first saw it, but seeing that last trailer actually made me interested in it. Imo, the juggle and tag feature they implemented are nice additions to remove (or at least diminish) the slow pace SFIV series had. Also, visually the game looks pretty good to me.

I’m hoping to see more interesting characters in the future. Right now, I’m really looking forward for Yoshimitsu and Asuka on the Tekken side and Ibuki for the SF side.

Watch Capcom shit on us again with their shitty netcode.

Pretty obvious that it’s gonna be a repeat of last 3 times. No one talks, no one cares, online sucks.

You guys are ruining online for us, continue to talk characters, Capcom loves fucking you over.

If people talk characters and then get those characters people wouldn’t consider themselves fucked over.

What the pro-great netcode crowd needs to do is organize and send a message. Capcom won’t take things serious until we do. You may not want to hear this but how Cap-Unity organizes for shit like Mega Man X and Venom getting into MvC3 - people need that zealot ambition for good netcode. Watch Mega Man X’s reveal trailer drop before a patch for better netcode. Bet.

I see what you mean by fighting gamers making a fuss over everything but the netcode, but perhaps there’s something to gather from that.

So wait, is it chains like Ono hinted at earlier, or is it more like target combos?

Goddamit! When will people learn to use the ca.kotaku version of this site. Gawker 2.0 is horrid.

capcom has officially put lupinko back in business lol. I bet 5 bucks SFXT is fully leaked by new years lol.

If you read Ryan’s article on the Captivate build of the game:

You’ll notice when he talks about Juggling, Ryu has a high damage loop from his Joudan kick, but after 4 reps, the opponent falls straight through Ryu’s next move (Much like SFIV, Ultras/Supers will probably have higher juggle priority than Normals, so after the 4 reps, you may be able to do Super/Ultra)

Broken/infinite Juggles are probably out of the question without some form of glitch that resets the juggle count in some way.

Also because of this, the Launchers are probably going to be useless if they don’t allow for bigger juggles, when you can just combo into something like the Joudan kick.

Ugh, harder plinks? WTF?

People need to not learn to use Kotaku. Also, he didn’t hint at anything, he said there is chains in the game ala DarkStalkers.
