The Street Fighter V Lounge: Kolin is COLD HEARTEEEEEEEEED!

[Hecatom]

Blanka has always been terrible. It’s a mystery why some people like him so much.

CvS2, that is why.

[OceanMachine]

Why does RE7 demo look better and have more graphics settings than SF5?

[YorKeY]

Because RE7 is a newer game, and RE7 wasn’t rushed. As a matter a fact, sell your SFV now and buy RE7. Sikeeeeeeeeeee!

You wish! O_O SFV > every fighting game ever fucking made! THAT’S WHAT YOU WANNA HEAR RIGHT!? weribgerkgjergbergregergytr

NRS does that SRK meme of “every character should be really strong.” Im suprised more of you guys dont like them.

If not for them always having some terribly broken character, I’d really like their games. They actually do have footsies and zoning, it just doesnt work like streetfighter.

I dont think it really needs to either.

I will say that the way injustice moves is really awkward. You can tell the engine is built around a block button, then they just take it out so its not the same as mk.

When injustice 2 hits for those who are HEROIC enough to dive in, I will happily be your guide and host to show you the world of Mr Boons wild ride.

pfff…when raven is in it you wont even be able to touch me

Now there’s a crossover I can get behind. NRS don’t know oki until they’ve had Guilty Gear oki.

I know you’re making a joke but if there’s one thing NRS does know it’s how to have characters have oppressive oki options. Now, as @Veserius has pointed out a lot of that is likely due to the fact that they don’t seem to understand how frame data works but saying that NRS games don’t have oki on the level of GG just isn’t right. It also doesn’t help that MK and Injustice 1 have far fewer defensive options that a typical GG and that most characters fastest normals in NRS games are laughably slow compared to the average normals in anime games.

Oh, I know; I remember that damn string from Erron Black that he could cancel into a command throw at any point or reset into being plus on block again. Or Batgirl/MM in Injustice.

It’s just just the issue of frame data in NRS games, it’s that they don’t have solid rules of thumb for making strings. Injustice had a huge issue where you could have strings that were most if not all of of mixup, forward moving, fast startup, plus on block, and lead into highly damaging combos. Shit like the Superman party starter should never have made it off the drawing board.

I never played MK9 or MKX but the number of characters in Injustice 1 who could have something waiting for you on wake-up that was comparable to Millia’s disc is staggering. That said, my personal bane (-_-) in that game was Doomday. Mother fucking d.1 xx Earth Shake all day. Every day. Who the fuck thought it was a good idea to have a move be an overhead and a low?

I’m super hyper right now, about to take the excessive energy out on my fight stick like Poongko.

Except most characters in NRS games tend to suck compared to the top tiers. So they really don’t do the whole “every character should be really strong.”

Even a bad low tier nrs char has more options than any sf char. Options are fun!!!

So apparently Akuma has a hitbox on his taunt, AND a hitbox when he stomps the ground during his neutral animation. The latter is on the foot behind him though so you’ll probably never see it actually land.

I added the frame data for his taunt. Since you can cancel the taunt into literally anything after the hitbox connects, and it launches, you can combo off of it. Should be fun to finish off a dizzied opponent.

Dunno the point of the standing one but it’s a nice touch.

Akuma is capable of damaging his opponent with his idle animation... what...

I ain’t going to no eventscrubs.

I didn’t recall it being mentioned here though. Maybe I missed it.

Thats kinda what happens when you make everybody dumb. The best character ends up way stronger than the low tiers. Its really hard to balance a game like that.

I think most people who say they want all strong characters dont get that it creates a larger variance in viability. They want all strong plus balance.

Xrd may not be perfectly balanced but given how radically different each character plays in that game I’d say they did a very good job. Universal mechanics seem like the best way to allow diverse character archetypes without some archetypes just hard countering others.

Noooooooo. The best street fighter youtube channel Karinsf4 was banned due to copyright infringement. Major bummer.

Think this is the big deal. The answer to most bullshit in the game needs to be found in the universal mechanics or in a property of a move every character has. Example most really powerful horizontal buttons are low profilable or can be beat with attacks that have upper body invuln. Every character has at least 1 of those types of moves so if they have the right read even the strongest horizontal game can be blown up.
