The SSJ5 General Thread: E3 happening but Ono doesn't Spirit Bomb

[EzkimoSamurai]

I like sfv…for the most part. I wish they would an extra reversal to every character. If they already have one using all 3 punches then, make the second one using all 3 kicks or vice versa. One reversal could be a high/low attack. Gives the option to have a reversal that helps you evade or knocks back/grabs.

make meaties much more reliable

The number of active frames tells me that Capcom intentionally made meaties unreliable to discourage them. The mistake is that they didn’t count on players just going for them anyway because the potential reward is too good to pass up.

It’s not so much to discourage them, they are very much the bread and butter of the SF5 pressure game, it’s to make it a scramble situation where the defender also has a good chance of winning the exchange. It just goes back to the point that people like pressing buttons.

Makes the game more random imo. Combine that with more rewarding jumps, easy combos, weaker neutral, input lag and Baltard for a much smaller skill gap.

For sure, it’s a pretty poor game, just gota try and find something you like about it because it’s the main event.

Unfortunately I like playing Ryu lol. I still enjoy the game but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t have a ton of issues with the way it plays.

Once Akuma gets to 900 health you honestly should just play him. I think Ryu will be more competitive in 2.1, but Akuma gives you better set play and technically a better zoning game since fireballs don’t really need to be active all the way to full screen in this game any ways. Once his DPs are anti air active on frame 1 I don’t see any reason to use Ryu over him. You get a better overall shoto game with better walk speed and a more dangerous V Trigger with better ways to build for it. His stubbiness isn’t that bad since his c.MK and s.MK do have more range than people credit them for and combined with his fastest walk speed for a shoto let him whiff punish things decently. He’s also the only shoto with multiple plus on block buttons including I believe at least 2 that are plus 3.

Also has things like air ex fireball which stops a lot of shit in the neutral game and gives you space. Something that the other shotos don’t really have. Secretly one of the best EX moves for a lot of reasons.

Watching WFX Samurai and Tokido fight against Laura players (Samurai vs 801 and Tokido vs Wolfkrone), they definitely get better momentum and control vs Laura than they would with a Ryu. You can see that they are a lot more in control of pressuring and zoning her than a Ryu would be.

Ryu has a nice white gi and stuff, but if you wanna do shoto stuff and have more options, just start learning Akuma.

I’ve considered playing Akuma and Guile but I’m just too lazy to learn new characters. My playtime is already very limited.

She’d probably be dressed like one of the dancers from her stage.

That Alex costume reminded me of this. But there isn’t even a firefighter.

At the end of Sf5 life line, we all gotta sit down and figure out how much money it would be to buy all of chun li’s (and cammy’s) costumes

[Jaxxx]

who is Chun sucking off at the office to get all these costumes?

At this point Capcom is not only spitting in the faces of its fans and customers, but they’re not even hiding it anymore. Fucking ridiculous

[NupoChromine]

I actually liked the first blue/black outfit best. The hearts on the knees are a nice reference to her Alpha 3 costume

Opponent is full screen, sonic boom

Opponent jumps, flash kick

How is that hard to learn?

[willseless]

They could at least give a “work costume” to the new character, reveal this set of costumes along with the character, and give his costume to season pass owners.

[Cestus]

I’m all for good alt costumes, this stuff is crap

Peoples want SF3 ALex they showed 1000years ago, they put on the shop firefighter-stripper Alex nobody ever asked for

Will buy the Ryu one, but that’s it

Chun at 135 alts
Still no new alts for most of the not waifu cast

Id be happy with any of them, they chose the most basic one tbh. I’m just waiting for the mod that replaces the cheerleader outfit hair.

[willseless]

So, I don’t want to be an asshole throwing out stereotypes, but how the fuck no one working on this game have commited suicide by now?

[Cestus]

What would Laura’s profession outfit be?

And please don’t reference the world’s oldest profession, heh.

I don’t, but Capcom already did

You can’t get more work costumes than that*, taunt should have been replaced by prices

*redbull Chun reached it though, set that on new york stage and you’ve the ultimate hookers fight with cop watching lol
