“Yeah, otherwise then you’d actually have to learn to play street fighter.”
:tup:
So, you’re saying that you suck at ST
You people and your jump blocks and jump parry shenanigans are too funny. You should be punished for jumping at the wrong time. Good spacers goint to fuck you up at SF4.
This thread was funny, thanks for all the posts everyone. I hope 3s is not at Evo next year, too many new games coming out. What was finals again this year? 6 out of 8 Chun’s?
They are…actually. I mean, it’s not because they have to learn something new that keeps them away. (GG hasn’t been “new” for quite some time now)
It’s just…well, none of the games you named are big in america because they don’t get press. And nobody really knows about them. I mean, it’s hard to keep interest in a game if there’s no competition for it. Sure, us hardcore geeks know about them, but that’s really it.
Ultras are blockable(except the command grabs/SGS) and punishable on block. SA works as a parry but since they have a whiff animation and characters have specific attacks that beat them, they will be used nowhere nearly as frequently as parry. Abel, Sagat, Ken, Viper(sometimes), Rufus and some others can anti-air with ultra. There are a large number of options that defeat jump-ins in SF4(but that point is moot as 3s has parry which makes jumping safer than it’s ever been).
EDIT: Sorry I misunderstood you. I thought you meant to say that jumping is a dominating tactic in SF4. But you meant to say it isn’t good. Jumping in Street Fighter is like a Hail Mary or QB Sneak in football.
Uhhhhh…yes? I never claimed otherwise?
Why would I get good at a game I don’t like?
the harcdore knows about em, yes none actually play. has very little to do with press when you’re talking about this community. People know what’s out there but like someone else said they are stuck in their comfort zone and won’t branch out to games with a different system.
We can’t all be Bo Jackson.
Wow so you’re comparing a first release game to a 3rd release game and a like a 6 release game???
That’s totally fair. SF4 is just the first one man.
There is PLENTY wrong with New Generation. Plenty.
EDIT:
Also you should be punished for jumping in…if they have Ultra, how about you fake them out, not jump the exact distance where it will hit you, or the multitude of other options you have?
The prospects that their will be a great deal of dominance in positioning, zoning, long/Mid/Close range threats. Anti-Air’s actually be true AA’s, if your stuck in a situation, you have to actually find solutions to reverse it or get yourself out of trouble, and nice character diversity on how they play strategically on an individual lvl.
All of these so far I’m seeing in SF:IV…so really…how is this supposed bad :looney:?
Lastly, how does someone say 3S>>ST on a strategical lvl when that “insert name” never bothered to try and play ST on a high lvl to even understand how strategical ST is 
?
Everyone has to learn their preferred system in the first place, though, right?
I think the problem is that it takes an existing community to get new people into a game. People are a lot more likely to pick up a new game if they see a lot of people playing it that they can join in with. This is how I came to play 3S.
It seems silly that there needs to be an existing scene for a scene to exist, but that’s the way it is. Games like GG just don’t have enough players to attract new players.
Option 1: Read the thread, and read all of it.
Option 2: Don’t post.
We JUST covered this topic.
Screw you! I did read the topic don’t gotta be stupid with your don’t post when I was being completely straight and not being down at you at all, all you said was how 3s was a finished game, well no shit it went through 3 versions with a combined ~6 years of development time.
Basically all you’ve said is “maybe when it has revisions it’ll be good and I’ll care”. Why don’t you shuddup and show support for it anyways? It looks like a PRETTY DAMN good game, and probably the best first outing (note: World Warriors/New Generation/Alpha 1 being the comparison games) for a new set of SF games yet. All first outing SF games have notable problems whether it was balance issues in WW, general issues in A1, or the stupid infinites and random shit in NG. So it isn’t “the best thing yet” no shit sherlock, I doubt anyone is really going to say “SF4 is perfect”, because it prolly ain’t, it’s the first revision. However, you’re still (even in the related posts of yours) comparing it to a 3rd revision game which straight up ain’t fair. Why don’t you compare it to WW, A1, and NG? Since you’ve probably never played WW/A1, NG was just stupid. Fun yes, but then again I could Light Flash Chop infinite a character or do the dumbest infinites, and in general it was a pretty bad game for serious tournaments because of those issues. SF4 in general looks to be utilizing SF2’s mechanics in the sense that no infinites have been discovered yet (still early, but…), and I think given how all the systems seem to work, there won’t be any (just like ST). That is really impressive for a first outing, especially now and days (I could name about 10 first outing games within the past couple years right here that have infinites and other game breaking issues that plague them).
Like I don’t see what the point of this thread is man except to dick stroke 3S if you’re just going to say “omg its not perfect yet maybe it’ll be good when they have 3 more years of dev time just like 3s did.”
They ain’t going to make a Street Fighter 5 or another Street Fighter with more 3S-esque/???-esque mechanics if no one gets into this. Man up and support it and maybe learn how Street Fighter **actually **is so that the game you want will actually get made. This game wasn’t even supposed to happen and it is pretty lucky it even did because Ono had trouble making it happen, and if the game doesn’t sell well (and it’s not a *TERRIBLE *game by any means…) I doubt Ono will be able to make that sale to his higher ups for a new one that you might REALLY REALLY ENJOY or even be able to really enhance this one in some way.
EDIT:
btw you should learn to edit instead of double posting all the time…
daaaaaaaaaayum!
3s sucks
this threads garbage
fuck all yall
woof wins
3S is cool. 3S fanboys. . . not so much.
fuck you
and fuck your shitty stupid shitty coinflip stupid shitty gay game
sigh
Op, was 3s your first competitive fighter??
/Agreed.
this thread is fucking tight.
i don’t think you are doing anything good by making this thread. like… anything good.
first off, being a pro-3s player (and judging by your mentality, ONLY a 3s player) is only going to lessen people’s opinions about you when you talk about other games. and then you bash a game you played for a second with (probably because you can’t play any game without parries).
i’m going to stay away from the “3s sucks” can of worms, because its not worth dealing with, but your opinion on sf4 not being 3s is something that should be addressed.
first off, why even make this thread? its obvious flamebait, and you got the desired effect. It definately stands to reason that you probably have a lesser appreciation for fighting games than alot of other people here, but i’m sure you probably didn’t give it a chance as soon as you couldn’t jump in parry option throw. I haven’t heard the most flattering things about sf4, but i’m willing to flesh it out and learn the game, and i’m sure as hell not going to play 3s instead of sf4. with all the new fighting games coming out, one of them is bound to be really good, so how about you support the future fighting game growth instead of wading in the cesspool of the current fighting game pool?
