ahhh… That’s so disheartening =(
Its messed up but they are gonna have to do something for him. Plotwise they could make him an early rival for Yun and Yang since they were involved in the Triads and organized crime. Another thing they can do is give him better moves and increase his stamina . He is way to weak his lt. rekka punch maybe faster but its useless when Sagat has that tiger knee .
nunchucks demo for taunt or win pose.
Rekka needs more power. and HK CW slightly quicker start up.
So umm…You guys saw that a fei-long player placed in both the French tourney in the teams and another Fei placed in the console tourney at Gods Garden 2…
I’m just saying Fei is a lot better than most give him credit for in SF4
Is he top tier? No. But he goes 5-5 with most of the cast with his bad matchups being in my opinion Rufus, Sagat, and Zangief.
looking at the eventhubs tier list, I weould actually put Fei at 118 which puts him smack-dab in the middle.That’s where I think he belongs.
All this being said, looking at all the new characters in SSF4, unless Fei got some significant buffs, he WILL NOT be able to compete. In fact, I’m expecting super to turn out with only maybe 12 of the 35 being competitive.
Yeah I think he’s mid tier now too but I think with everyone else being raised up and him staying mediocre… it’ll only get worse.
btw El Chupa… where’s my credit in your sig? I’m honored that you would quote me though lol
I thought the exact thing to myself after watching the Makoto demo. Any hype I had for this game has flatlined. I’m hesitant to even hit the arcade to see how the new characters will make Failong look stale.
You are speakin Truth here. I have been using Fei in Tournaments for the past year, he is very underrated on a whole bunch of levels. He certainly needs tweaks but he is by no means a weakling. He could obviously use some help against Sagat though.
Yes in SF4 as of now yeah he’s not really a weakling, but with SSF4 coming and so many new powerful cast coming into play and with so many buffs implemented on some of the old cast combined with the lack of buffs or changes on fei long beside a useless ultra, he will most guaranteed be bottom tier.
Excuse me Capcom, but where is my nunchuck ultra combo?
Fei - Changes not apparent. Counter ultra can be broken by a breaker.
From the play test on front page… counter ultra is officially useless if that’s true, poor Cammy too. Let’s hope "changes not apparent is just a non-fei player feedback, I’ve heard chickenwing hits a bit lower and I can only hope that at LEAST that’s true… although comments like “Rufus has to earn wins” makes me hopeful that Fei is better because other characters are tweaked… then I see stuff Dudley/Ibuki can do and I’m not sure anymore.
Yeah I laughed when I saw that ultra 2 can be armor broken. What little use that move had is now even less. I can’t see any reason to pick it now. Pretty much all the arguments people made for it are… countered.
Oh well… hopes were never up anyway so I don’t care too much.
Armor broken and grabbed, bar that happening they just wait 5 seconds and jab you. Meanwhile Hakkan gets the super anti air trap of oily death. No prob with Hakkan, ok with him getting that but share the love Capcom geez.
Wait, what?
Counter ultra can be armour broken?
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. End thread here. Close the Cammy one while you’re at it.
To be fair Hakan’s anti-air trap has similar properties to Fuerte’s ultra if you know how to use it; if anything Hakan’s ultra is easier to land but not as versatile – and given that nobody really knows how much damage it does, it might not be as powerful either
It does decent dammage in that video with Ibuki, maybe 400 or so.
lol. loses to armor breakers!wtf?!! i cant even make a devils advocate argument for this one. it would be like defending hitler. whats worse, my secondary, gen, got nerfed to hell too. guess im playing ryu now, lol
i really cant, on any level, fathom how capcom came to the descision that counter ultras should be armour broke.
almost any normal ultra would work as a better counter than the counter ultras.
it makes no sense.
they felt that little bit of hope we had for fei. and subsequently smashed it
sup “main fei, alt gen, fuck 'em both, probably gonna play ryu” buddy
