Why the fuck does no one talk about this glorious game?
>b-but its on Xbone, no one has it
Shut the fuck up, Charles. Hardly anyone bought a gamecube yet Melee was the talk of the town AND it developed a competitive scene that has lasted for over a decade.
>>323651334
Gonna dual boot windows 10 when season 3 comes out so I can sell my xbone, not trynna pay to play online
>>323651334
I almost bought an Xbone just for this game but microsoft helped me not make a terrible decision and buy a shitty console so now i'm just waiting for the PC release.
Thanks Microsoft!
>>323651334
>Why the fuck does no one talk about this glorious game?
Because it's a piece of shit and no one cares.
>>323654585
Don't you like, get tired of yourself?
I'm sure you can spend your time better than shitposting.
>>323651334
Because Xbone and W10.
A shame because I want to mess around with some of the characters but I'm not touching either of those products.
Also I'm tired of those people on Iron Galaxy's payroll shilling it, most notably Max.
>>323655653
>Guy who works on the game also likes the game.
Stop the fucking presses.
>>323655903
Sounds like you're working on the game and are upset nobody wants to try it.
Really, W10 exclusivity was the dumbest fucking thing MS could've done for the game after people already didn't wanna buy an Xbone for it.
I haven't seen corporate incompetence like that in a while.
>>323656106
Never played the game in my life, listened to the soundtrack a bunch though.
W10 exclusivity is shit though, i assume their excuse will be cross-platform play, but that's an obvious lie.
>>323651334
I still share my hype for S3 from time to time but I'm not that great of a player. Was trying to get an Arcade Stick or being a family man and wait for it on W10 to use my already existent Arcade Sticks for the 360.
Either way can't wait for S3. Rash was the shit.
>>323657906
*Arcade Stick for my Xbox 1
You won't catch me gaining calluses in my hands for one game.

>Win10
nope
>Xbone
double nope
>>323658404
That an Aatrox?
Not a fan although I haven't really played it.
The neutral looks really retarded and characters are just an assortment of gimmicks. Combo breakers are a stupid mechanic and for the most part the only ranges that are really played seem to be far as fuck away or extremely close.
>>323658404
Your set up is making me jealous.
Speaking of which, isn't there an adapter for the Xbox One to let you use your 360 arcade sticks on your XB1?
>>323658639
Nah, that new HRAP V Kai, t'is a hayabusa stick. It's a real charm and since i've never really owned a stick i really wanted to try one.
>>323658867
Aww, thanks!
That Soundplate under the TV really tops it off, also here's a close up of the stick for the other guy. Couldn't believe it was THIS HUEG when it came in.
Fug, forgot the image.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>323659423
But KI is free :^)
>>323651334
It really is because it's X1 only. I can't think of any other reason. Once it gets to windows 10, then maybe it'll spread out more. But it's Win 10, another fucking barrier.
I always admired watching people play the game and envied them. MKX was complete garbage and I'm tired of SFIV. Only solace I get is using Fight Cade and SFV betas here and then.
>>323659370

>Finally escapes, but only makes it as far as W10

Face it, the game's being sent out to die a second death.

Shit, I forgot about the release date.
Dead on fucking arrival, what were they thinking?
>>323660020
Eh, not really neccesary, the buttons feel very responsive and stick has these tasty clicks.
It just werks.
>>323660045
>>323660121
Retards, MS already sold this game through by handling W10 for free.
And SFV is no CoD or Fallout 4 either by the way. It may sell 2 to 3M lifetime, not 6M in the first fucking day.
>>323660793
Nobody wants to even INSTALL W10 because it's such a piece of shit.

Street Fighter is a huge seller. Vanilla SF4 sold 3.3 million units;
http://www.capcom.co.jp/ir/english/business/million.html
And that was before the fighting game boom. SFV will sell a lot more. It's not only a much bigger name than KI, it's being released on two platforms from the get-go, lets people use their old arcade sticks, and isn't stuck on Windows 10.
>>323661507

Like I said, it doesn't have what it takes to make KI irrelevant. And pray to fucking Ono SFV doesn't disappoint or you will see a lot more people seeing KI as an alternative to your favorite fightan franchise.
>>323661581
Capcom said they wanted to roll out with PS3 stick support on release.
Dunno if they will though.
>>323651334

It's not the deepest fighter by any means but god it just feels good to play fuck man season 3 when
>>323661783
>Kim Wu
Just waiting for the PC release, and how the mod community will deal with it.
Unfortunately, in MK9, Injustice and MKX, the modders only got edit colors.
Still don't know if the configurations are difficult to hack or they don't found a way to meshing mods.
>>323661783
>Gargos
Lol no, him and Eyedol are NEVER EVER
>>323661842
That would be nice. I think I'll still buy a new stick anyways. Mine is fucked. Even though I'm playing on PC.

>madcatz life for me
Saitek/madcatz make some fucking AWFUL products that are full of gimmicks but awful build quality and break all the time
t. Had three saitek/madcatz products in my lifetime and they've all died, multiple times. One was a fucking RAT9 that I spent £100 on.
Dunno what their fighting sticks are like but no way in hell am I buying anything made by them again.
>>323662126
Their sticks are overpriced in my opinion but it's like the one thing they got right when you look at the history of gimmicky controllers they built themselves on.

I like it. Reminds me of Skullgirls in a way since every character is unique. Sadira, Kan-Ra, and Hisako are fun to play as.

They said something about him not working. Can't remember where I read it but they might figure something out.
>>323666057
Different teams.
Remember how KI was originally made by Double Helix and everyone thought it would be shit then it turned out to be good albeit console exclusive on the less popular 8th gen console?

...you don't really get this whole "fighting game community" thing, do you?
...not like the PC has a fighting game community worth anything (Microsoft really pulled off some unforgivable shit by releasing the worst, most unpopular console in history), but ACTUAL FIGHTING GAMERS (read: people who are not like you) will play the game regardless of what else is on the market.
>>323668927
It's the best 8th gen stick out there though
>>323669512
>will play the game regardless of what else is on the market.
People go where the other people are. That's why nobody plays games like UNIEL or Skullgirls any more. However good a game is, nobody wants to spend half an hour sitting in a lobby waiting for one of the three other people who still play the game to join. When KI finally comes out people will have already invested their time and effort into SFV, so after the launch period (where people will give it a go as a novelty) KI's playerbase on PC will drop like a stone.
>>323669917
>He doesn't think the same will happen to SF V after the '17ers drop it
Though the PC version of GGXrd has a population. Unlike the PS4 version.
>>323669917
It's crossplay though like SFV so it's not like the PC side needs to worry about keeping interest similar to every fighter that has launched on PC.
I fully don't expect it to be as popular as SFV but I don't think it will dwindle either, even though it was the lowest this past year at Evo it had about 80 more players from the previous year, people in the scene are dedicated too

>>323651334
Fighting games are meant to be played competitive and SF series will always be the most competitive. KI is literally for other fighting game players to dab into because the game is so fucking easy and brain dead.
Your agruement falls apart when you disregard the fact that the Gamecube wasn't literally 70 Hitlers under the command of Satan himself, unlike the Xbox One.

Killer Instinct doesn't get discussed much because Xbox One isn't a particularly popular console, and unlike the wii u, very few people on /v/ are indoctrinated into a microsoft-only fantasy land and don't play anything else.
Seems like it has a real friendly community though. It probably won't stay that way once the standard /v/ crowd gets a hold of it come march

>>323668669
Fuck ghosts, there already are too many undead charactees. I want a Lamia or an Harpy.
>>323651334yu mo gui gui fei de zhou
I just got the free character pack or whatever and started playing a little bit when my friend was over.
I think it ended in like, 20-4, and I had two streaks of 7+ wins while switching around to different characters.
Almost got a thumb blister.
Pretty boring though.

>People in this thread seriously think SFV won't see an Xbone release
End of of 2016, guaranteed. Capcom aren't dumb (Or wealthy) enough to ignore 18+ million users.
>tfw they're dumbing down KI for season 3
for fuck's sake, the game is already pretty easy to pull off commands
>>323675181
I find it odd that they aren't going to have an arcade release, but I think that mostly has to do with their butt buddy pact with Namco.
hey you faggots should probably know that KI is free on xbox one now
>>323675331
>Won't have an arcade release
You're retarded. SFV will have about 10 different versions before SFVI is released. Fightan fans are actually clinically retarded.
>>323675398
It was always free. The only thing that is TRULY free is a few characters.
>>323675694
I'm talking about at launch and with no announcement in sight you nignog. I'm hoping for something after Tekken 7 finally comes to consoles.
>>323675258
KI is about braking combos and making your own rather than autistically spamming a certain moveset in order to win.
>>323676051
>autistically spamming a certain moveset
tell that to Sadiracan't fucking wait for 4K@60 Sadira, holy shit
>>323675914
>I'm talking about launch
Holy shit a SF game won't have an arcade version at launch? YOU'RE JOKING? Of course of won't you fucking tit. Give it 2 months and then arcade version will be out, give it another 2 months and Super Hyper Arcade 2.0 edition will out. Give it another 2 months and the Super Hyper Arcade 2.1 Ultimate edition will be out.
>>323675871
Half the cast is currently free, not exactly just a few. It's the half that has Fulgore and Glacius so it's the best half at any rate.
At any rate, my opinion on KI: It's pretty fun and unique, unique enough that playing it won't feel redundant next to SFV and Xrd Revelator. Don't have an Xbone myself so my playtime has been limited. My PC is a bit outdated, but hopefully the game will be well-optimized. I'd love to play it properly.
>>323676409
I wish you said that in person so I could bet money against your dumbass.
>>323676309
You know it's true. Fighting games aren't fun at all. They require an absolute autistic level of knowledge to win. They're a bigger cancer than ASSFAGGOTS.
>>323676527
Go look at the history of SF and tell me I'm fucking wrong, idiot.
>>323676789
>can't even play ASSFAGGOTS
you're bad at PVP, I'm not trying to insult you or anything, ASSFAGGOTS is the easiest PVP genre to get into and you're still bad at it
try getting into a fighting game along with a friend and share knowledge so that you can both improve and one doesn't leave the other in the dust, this is the best way in my opinion to get anywhere in fightan (that's assuming you and your friend are good at videogames in general and won't hit a wall anywhere (no, not everyone is special, no matter how much your parents and teachers have told you))
>>323676885
When have you seen Akuma introduced as Tekken cannon and a main character? When have you seen a vanilla SF game released on console before arcades? When have you seen Capcom release a beta to test online play or announce online tournaments?
>>323675258
Someone using combo assist can easily be caught mashing. Just look at the KV bar then break them with a read. And even then they only have two ender options and harder manuals so they are limiting their choices.

cry some more, singleplayer faggot
I love fighting games and I normally idort, but this time, xbone is not an option and Win10 will never touch my HD. It really came down to SFV vs KI (or whatever other brodude game Xbone claims as an exclusive) and SFV won
Plus, I get the sense that whatever I liked about KI back in the day had more to do with my lack of sophistication in fighting games, rather than it being actually good. I see footage of the new one and it just looks ridiculous, even more than anime fighters. Westerners can't make good fighting games, sorry.
>>323677428
SF has changed and they have heavy ties to Namco who needs the arcade market to be profitable.
>>323677290
They only have two light auto openers as well, so you just break light whenever you see it. It has the features of the combo path system, but you lose all the flexibility if you use assist because it just means someone more experienced can break your combo early in the path instead of the reads they need to do if you vary your path.

>>323676789
I bet you buy into the frame data meme, don't you?
While useful, you don't need to memorize essentially any numbers to be competent at fighting games.
You just need to know what moves are fast, what moves aren't fast, what moves can be punished, and what moves can't. You don't even have to research it. Just playing the game will help you feel these things out. Fighting games are an incredibly intuitive genre if you go in with a mindset of learning as you play and actually -thinking-. It had to be, because it's a genre that got big in arcades - no manuals or training mode available (back then, at any rate). People have always gotten good without any sort of "autistic knowledge".
>>323677612
Its the only western fighter japan openly embraces
>>323676789
Is kinda the opposite. Autistic ppl have no emotional intelligence. They can't tell when someone is angry, or desperate, or feeling cocky or shit. Frame data means nothing if you can't read your opponent's emotions.
The fact that Daigo , back in the day, could win with Ryu's bread and butters and shiryukens alone, just by reading his opponent's fears is the proof.
>>323669512
Homie I know quite a few people that are gonna drop like every fighter for V lol
>>323677767
Hold on now anon, let's not mislead the guy. There are Japanese KI players, but let's not fool ourselves into thinking it's a popular game over there. More because of the platform than the game itself though, I'm sure. Pity, really. If only arcades were alive enough in the west to justify the existence of KI Arcade, Japan could import those and maybe it really woulda been a sensation.

I like the game.
I'm not very good at it, but it's so much fun. I love the style of the game, the graphics are pretty neat which is suprising considering how every Xbone games looks ugly in my opinion.
I know a lot of people seem to hate the Xbone here because of its awful launch and bad performance compared to the PS4, but I like the Xbone - the controller, games, and everything about it is neat.
>>323678574
How is KI's future on PC relevant to the game's current Japanese popularity, the subject of my post?
Ah, right. It's not.
You're just one of those morons that gives other PC users a bad name, shoving yourself into every conversation where a console exists. Got it.
>>323678896
Its pretty good, but lacks that nice bit of polish that makes the animations look fluid like street fighter, its a little overwhelming to learn though with the combo breakers and whole combo system
