but that would mean removing akuma
People surprised that Cammy is still good? She’s always good in a lot of games, solid at the worst. -_- A Friend in Japan told me that Cammy is still easy mode to play, just takes a bit more longer to kill, and that cannon strike change is fun. I still think Sakura is the easiest character in the game to play, even before the shotos, just my opinion though.
It makes it more difficult for everyone, but it will make it less difficult for the characters who already had good tools for Oki
Cammy and akuma have never been bad in any streetfighter game,Hell cammy is Even Good in MVC2 lol
Cammy is pretty bad in SF2. Of course she doesn’t have her dive kick in SF2.
Cammy was the worst in ST and HDR. Akuma was considered mid-tier in Alpha 2.
Akuma was considered the best of mid tier though. A borderline upper tier character. He dropped off as it developed but he never left the upper 1/4th to 1/3rd of the cast. Probably the worst he’s ever been too. It’s the whole shoto + air fireball thing that keeps him from ever dropping below the halfway point in any tier list that is an actual street fighter game (e.g. not marvel or xmen vs sf which plays by a totally different set of rules.)
Akuma in A2 is basically what Yun in AE2012 is. A strong contender but not really remarkable.
Damn i already knew people were gonna get on my case about SF2, should have put that in my original post as an exception like i planned, but didn’t think you guys would do it… Follow your gut… always… always… gotta start ingraining that in my head. Pavy gets me though!
No, it’s not contradictory because I was talking about chars who need to do something immediately after the knockdown. Other characters just use other normals to kill more than 11f. LPs are unplinkable, and close normals cannot be used in most cases.
Which leads us to the same situation where characters who get a million years to set up strong oki will just swap one set of frame kills for another, while others can’t do anything except risk a manually timed jump.
Abel’s wake up game gets a huge undeserved nerf. Ryu has to cr.mk xx hadou the opponent to death. Blanka has to look for dozens of other setups (nice work Capcom) or has to play even more gimmicky or lamer than before.
And in case people were wondering, DWU will not get rid of unblockables in cases where one frame kill can be substituted for another. It’s another stupid game mechanic that doesn’t need to be in this game.
Christ. Give it a rest, already. We get it.
- UFGT will have an Ultra SFIV tournament. (People will be locked to new characters only)
- The alt costumes for the new characters are fantasy based. This could be a hint as to the franchise Capcom plans to revive this year. I would guess Breath of Fire, though Ghosts n Goblins is also possible (Firebrand and Arthur are in UMVC3).
- Cammy is awful in ST, you’ll almost never see people even pick her. How often does a hot blond in a thong never get picked in a fighting game? She’s never been top tier except for SF4. She is upper mid in CVS2. That’s about it as far as good Cammy.
- If people are already figuring out setups for DWU, it seems this mechanic is only going to hurt the game. Initially thought of as a sloppy fix, it might not fix anything and still have all the negatives coming with such a mechanic.
- AE characters deserve more showtime in trailers. No rival cutscenes, and no trials in the game. Elena also looks much better in the intro than in the game.
- Hope Daigo goes with Hugo. He is terrifying when he picks a rush down character (Boxer in ST), love to see what he does with a grappler.
- I doubt Ultra is going to draw many new players, except maybe some who were fans of Poison, Elena, Hugo, Rolento from other games. Mostly it will be long time hardcore fans that purchase this.
hey I only use 50 setups with blanka, and that only took 5 years of sorting out. I’m sure I’ll still be playing him in 2019.
im sorry but UFGT is new chars only? UFGT giving capcom a real run for their money in the “who’s the dumbest” contest…
also just noticed that decapre isnt even in the ultra intro lol
And why’s that? It’d be before console release I assume, so it’s more of a fun exhibition than anything. The real tourney would still be AE. If it wasn’t New Chars only, no one would bother picking them defeating most of the purpose.
Oh shit, somebody tweet or tell combofiend in person to allow us to have custom messages for online lobbies… even with a character limit (obviously) is fine!
Looking for Dan players! No.
Any1InCaliPlayDanWitgoodconnection? Yes, that should fit.
Watch it again. She is clearly there but only briefly. I’ll give you a hint: it’s near the end.
there is some easy joke about eternal being the only one paying attention here.
It’s only relevant if there are unblockables both in dwu and normal wakeup from the same knockdown.
Looks like i might Pick up Ken,Hugo and Rolento gonna be tough to balance my relationship with dudley
