The Official Ranting Thread

Lol but Elena is loveable? =’(. You have to give a reason why. A good one
Blanka, Elf and viper. I don’t like tehm at all. Just because they are random. Random shinanigans.
As for the ex issue it is kinda hard on a ps3 pad because the buttons are far apart. I say invest into a fight pad the buttons are really close to each other. So ex moves shouldn’t be a problem

I don’t care for her character design. I find her stage in 3S annoying (I actually like the music, though). I dislike her move-set and her voice makes me want to commit suicide.
Why does she have to SHOUT? >_>
“CHAAAAAAAAAAAAA”

Lol you got that. That’s a valid reason…that was in japanese, I’m sure her english voice actor will do her justice. As for the move set, I personally think it’s unique minus her DP. Who else in the game that has a special that hit overhead. Not many and she can combo off of it.

Guy’s Bushin Slash Kick? ok im messing around but still~ gotta love dat Final Fight…BUSHINRYU

Balrog, Rufus, Abel, presumably Guy, Chun-li, Ibuki and probably every single Tekken character.

The only rant I can come up with after seeing this great game get played by the “pros” in Cross Assault is, GEMS!!! >:( WDH I DONT SEE HOW GEM SELECTION CAN BE EVEN FIXED FOR TOURNY PLAY TO NOT HAVE STRENUOUS PAUSES AFTER EVERY MATCH!!!

Other than that, I take back all my rants and cynical whining and prepare for this greatness to hit my home next Tuesday ( or earlier :wink: )

Though I dont understand why Bryan is not in this game :frowning:

I used to be pissed over gems until I realized they’re like Arcanas/colors/costumes and all that (except not really, you know what I’m trying to say). I didn’t care how long they took to pick, I was upset over their general purpose; I thought it was stupid and over-complicating a game/making things complicated just for the sake of it. However, my friends and I will just pick the default gem load-out (if there is one, I haven’t been watching many streams).

I can’t get 3p manually to come out consistently. I dunno what it is, but i guess my thumb on my right hand, and index finger on my left hand can’t coordinate 100 percent consistently. It’s just a minor gripe, but i will be using the shoulder buttons for cross arts.

Why the fuck would they make the characters light up in those irritating neon colors?

they could have just made the super meter change to the color of the gem instead of the players, or even their heads that are above the health bars would have been better.

I think besides the final fight stage, i’m going to not enjoy this music…too eurobeat or whatever.

They definitely aren’t “Eurobeat”.

I don’t like how capcom has been so hush hush about the online in this game

We don’t even know if the game has lobbies, we don’t know how the ranking is being handled (whether it is BP or is it PP or is it Marvel 3 like?), don’t know how training mode online works, don’t know how it compares to AE2012, don’t know if we can save replays, ect.

I am an online warrior because of my location (WV) and busy schedule as a grad student, if online stability isn’t at least as good as SF4 than I will definitely have 2nd thoughts purchasing this game. However, if the online is improved at all, for example online training mode actually working really well and the game having less lag than SF4, than I certainly will be picking up a copy.

It’s because your uniformed, The online is largely based off of SSFIV/AE’s Online including all of its features and more introduced in SFxTK. most of this is common knowledge if you even cared to check the official site >_>’ come on now.

not trying to be a douche but seriously…some if note most questions can be answered if people would take at least 5 mins to look at the Japanese/English Official sites…there are tons of info there and they update it at a steady pace.

thanks, after searching more I see it is largely based off super SF but with a new netcode…

I sitll would have liked to see someone at capcom show a video example of online features/play, or better yet an online demo featuring a few characters like KoF.

Atlus had to try their hardest to help SNKplaymore sell KOFXIII though, so its a different situation, they mentioned it vaguely in the Pandora Trailer, but most press release and stuff mention the online is like that found in SFIV. the net code will be solid like SFIV, it all depends on your connection.
But essentially SFxTK online is SSFIV’s online with Breifing mode, Scramble battle, and 2vs2 co-op play in both vs and scramble battle. Tournament update should add the ensuing Tournament mode and that gem loadout system for offline tournaments.

Any word on if it will actually have spectator mode/replay functionality? All I hear on that is conjecture based on the fact that those features are in SF4.

The arguably two best players end 50% of their rounds in timeouts. Shit is hype.

the SFIV series in general had a better net code then most FG, Blazblue, and VF5 on 360 also have good net codes…i don’t see why you had to throw a meme at me >_>’ but w/e thats SRK for ya…
