Can’t wait to be playing this again even though it’s been literally years and then it was just me and a couple guys playing this in a basement. I’m totally going to suck.
Last I checked, it was the newbies who were complaining about anything that even just looked at them the wrong way.
I think you forgot how in the 90s, there was little to no communication with developers beyond game sales and fighting game players took what they were given and made the best of it or played something else.
Now we have a bunch of avenues for direct communication with them or someone in there who relays our messages and begin taking it for granted.
I’m not saying you should or shouldn’t complain.
I’m not saying the new HUD is bad or good.
I’m not saying there should or shouldn’t be a way to get the old HUD (I would like the choice to choose which tbh).
I’m just saying times are better now since many of the barriers that stopped us from communicating with them beyond units sold are gone (for the most part).
Even though when these barriers were up and developers just went with what they thought would be best, with less direct feedback resulted in arguably better games compared to today but I digress.
I think there is some level of merit to this thinking, but you seem to be overlooking the fact that this is leading to games that will be popular, not ones the developers think will be good. Is 3s the best? Yes. Did they have all this fan communication? No.
The 90’s produced SFIII, Alpha, Vampire Savior, and other great Capcom games. (Don’t forget non fighting games like the good ole’ Resident Evil games T_T)
To me, the sad thing is that they are seemingly no longer willing to take risks if it involves losing dat $$$. I sincerely hope that if they made a new Vampire (a game I believe has potential to be great), they don’t just copy and paste the models from SFIV, render the Vampire characters and add Gouki and Wesker and update it every 2 months with patches and sequels and the nonsense we’ve seen from their recent fighting game franchises.
That’s why I bought Bayonetta and Vanquish by Platinum games and thank Kamiya on his twitter for the awesome fresh titles! I also thanked him for Okami and Viewtiful Joe. I’m trying to make good use of these new avenues by letting them know they doing a good job and know how to make a grade A game.
I mean it’s not all bad but you know it’s a learning experience for developers as well to make use of the feedback. The customer isn’t always right and we can see that looking at the complaints and request and demands and suggestions some of these people have lol skims through CapUnity
I kind of get the feeling that they changed the HUD a bit so when people saw videos online, they’d know it was played on the XBLA/PSN version instead of the original version. I dunno, just speculation.
Kind of sucks that the trials are easy. I was hoping for some really amazing trials and really hard parrying trials (parry out of a specific aegis setup, for instance). But oh well.
I’d definitely like to see them make a community pack of trials and release it as free DLC later. Just get some knowledgeable 3s heads together and come up with some crazy stuff for all the characters.
you know they fixed the RROD ages ago
ya but your still a faget OHHHHHHHH BURN
platinum games is sick
I know you trolling but, NO, that’s the exact opposite!! New gen complain and want everything patched, don’t just associate the new gen with everything negative.
Its more like, funny how now the 3s elitists are whining like SFIV players, but when they do it its cool.
uhh…
SFIV players whine about non-broken things and bitch until they get balance patches, then complain when the balance patch doesn’t do what they wanted it to do.
SF3 players just want to make sure their game is going to come to them as what they’re told, because Capcom’s has a tendency to not do that. Arcade perfect 3S on PS2 wasn’t really, or even close to it, but they said it would be. Arcade perfect MvC2 on PS2/Xbox was claimed also, but they were trash.
This is like talking about a 10-year old complaining about 5th grade because dividing fractions needs to be removed from their curriculum and comparing it to a grad student who’s paying beaucoup bucks on their education and complains the work doesn’t substantiate a master’s degree and wont prepare them for the real world.
One is about people bitching they want an easy outlet
The other is about people bitching they don’t want to get ripped off.
And that includes bitching about the hud being different and sounds being remixed slightly different? Right…
About the HUD…there are so many options to change it…while playingnthe build at the San Francisco release party ofnsf4ae, one of the cap com guys said that we werenplaying on the second to last build of 3s OE…it played and looked fine so im assuming the gold version while be better…honestly the only funky ass option was the scan line one…it’s cool to see but up close it bugs the eyeballs…other than that…nothing to complain about other than the game not comingnout soon enough…
How many times does it have to be repeated? It’s not the HUD that people really care about. It’s not the soundtrack that people really care about.
It’s the fact that if there are THESE CHANGES, are there changes to the game play as well?
We were promised an ARCADE PERFECT port, so many people’s minds, that means EVERYTHING is exactly like the arcade, even the HUD.
It’s a matter of being lied to, and the game hasn’t even been released yet.
What are you talking about, please see how biased you are. Balance changes are so much more important than the mix of a soundtrack its not even comparable.
I think whining is a great idea, if some bitching can change something which will then remain unchanged for years, why not? I’m not agreeing or disagreeing with anything, but stop being such hypocrites.
Man points should be automatically deducted for using the word “elitist”
It’s no suprise that Capcom would lie (again). Just take one look at Ono. Does this honestly look like someone you could trust?

ITT: People consistently missing the fuckin’ point and trying to be hotshots by posting videos of their own inner torment and using bullshit throwaway words like “elitist”.
Hey, I’m part of this new generation of fighting gamers and the whining for constant patches and such is pissing me off. Take the Sentinel health nerf in MvC3. A complete joke. I wanted to get people whining to Capcom that MODOK was overpowered, so maybe he could get nerfed too (but that didn’t work).
I, for one, am just excited to finally get to learn to play 3rd Strike! As long as it has the gameplay that made it popular, I don’t quite care about the rest. I’ve never been a purist with games, though. If a game is identical as before, but it just looks different, i don’t really care. Hell, I’d probably see it as an improvement in most cases.
