Why don't you play fighting games?
i do but only the good one (ggxd rev 2) and only 2 or so hours a week
Fighting games on pc suck
That tongue seems incredibly small.
>>381734485
>spend hours learning a combo
>still lose to a button masher
and this is why i play dota instead
>>381734936
Knowing how to play>button mashing>not knowing how to play but trying to play like good players.
my reactions suck
>>381735257
This. Combos are just a means to an end and not what you should be trying to practice when you're new.
>>381734485
You asked me this last night
>>381735580
>Can somewhat play Saki in AH
>Can't play Vatista at all
>>381734936
Hope you've been practicing how to convert properly or making adjustments instead of just practicing executions.
>>381734485
because everyone sucks at them
>>381735658
I've only started playing the game a couple of days ago, I like Akatsuki the most but Vatisa is pretty fun. Saki and Vatista aren't terribly similar beyond being charge characters though, at least from what little I've messed with Saki.
Tekken7>SFV
I do, it's just that I'm unmotivated since none of my friends are willing to play something new, like Rev2 or Tekken with me instead of SF5and non-fighting games like Smash
>>381736027
I'm just being slightly facetious with the whole Charge inputs, but I don't need to hold up-down to do an aerial ender for Saki.
I mostly stick to Hyde in UNI since I adore his moveset and versatility aside from his lack of overheads
>>381736075
Having a friend to play against is honestly the easy way to improve in a fighting game.
>>381734485
But anon I'm playing ARMS right now!
>>381736258
This game is pretty fun honestly, I really appreciate how grounded the game is compared to Arksys' fighters.
>>381734485
But anon, I do.
I play Melee cause it takes the most skill
Because they're fucking trash and only faggots play them
>>381736831
Keep in mind that it was French Bread who make the game and Arcsys just published it for consoles.
I appreciate the fact that the game really punishes you for making a mistake since there's no way to get out of combos and you have keep constant eye on the GrD bar. It's one of the few systems I really feel that rewards players for being smart in both their offense and defense.
>>381734485
How does /v/ pick their mains? I follow some strict rules like
>Can't be an asshole villain most of the time
>Almost never play females to not associate to waifufags, exceptions being Kasumi in DOA, or sometimes Mai in KOF, considered Viola in SCV
>Play the good guys
>If the basic bitch is fun enough I might play him once in awhile like Lars
>Automatically play him if he's somehow related to the yakuza, like Yamazaki in KOF'
>Shades/eye coverings are much appreciated, like Hwoarang
>I love weeaboo characters, like Geese or Chipp
>Play characters that speak languages I know/am learning
>Gray hair is 10/10, like Lee in Tekken
>Stupid asf backstory is avoided at all costs, like Kula being 14 but is a kawaii murderer
>Ninjas are a go
>If I love the character so much I don't give a shit, like Kazuya or Kanji in P4, or Roy
>No charge excessive characters
>I love playing God, like Algol
>Bruce Lee tributes must be considered
>Looks badass, like Merkava or Cinder
>Rushdown is preferred
>Should almost always be difficult to play
>Don't like playing defensive
>>381737150
That's a pretty specific list. I honestly just pick someone by
>Moveset
>Overall Feel + Playstyle
>Looks
I mean, it's better when the character I feel mechanically comfortable with be a cool guy or some pretty girl but that's the least of my worries. I have a certain threshold of where I either consider a design too generic but find the character fun as all fuck or love the design but can't play a character for the life of me, of which I end up just practicing a lot with.
>>381737336
Just as long as you don't play Linne. Literally just a loli with two swords, so damn original.But if an anon plays her because tier list I don't blame the anon
>>381737150
rushdown, heavy hitters, gimmick characters
and waifu
>>381734613>only google result points to this thread
>>381737150
>being this autistic
start at the top of the tier list and keep going down till you find someone you like in training mode, like me
>>381737524
Hey, a pocket knife and blunt sword is original enough. She may not be the most interesting looking but her playstyle definitely caters to me.
I just find Seth does the entire two-swords fast movement based character a lot better and a lot more dynamic. To be honest, I like every single character in the series.
>>381734485
>Like fighting game girls
>Hate fighting games
Soul Calibur 2 struck a good balance and made the fighting fun for retards
Waste of time.
>>381734485
Because all but one series is thematically unappealing to me.
too much autism required, going 0-2 to niggers for literal months until you git good is pretty unfun. there's too much to play nowadays and the payoff comes far too late.
This is why I play fighting games
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CamPXxfl7Lw
>tfw crapcom will never let this be backwards compatible on xbone or ps4, not even a pc release
>>381734485
But I am.
>>381737692
One of the reasons I started UNIEL and it became my favorite anime fighter was because it didn't rely on already existing characters to sell, something like Nitro Busters Plus. Though technically Eltnum and Akatsuki are guests. I wouldn't know about Melty Blood, game never really caught my interest. But at least Linne was created specifically for this game
I do, though
>>381739427
>PC release
MAME and Fightcade exist for a reason anon
>>381734485
I do. Just had a great SFV hate thread that turned into a thread full of lobbies for it. I love /v/.
>>381739526
Akatsuki is so old and obscure that him being a guest is nearly irrelevant.
>>381734485
>tfw skullgirls is the only fighter I have that I'm good at
Any other good, not dead fighters I can get from the steam sale for $7 or less?
>>381740060
>>381739526
The Guest Characters are probably the most literal interpretations in UNI. Their arcade modes are jokes and I doubt they'll play a part in the actual story mode that'll come with the newest iteration.
>>381734485
I do, though. I go to locals for SFV andSmash 4
I'm not good at them
>>381740192
Fucking Urienfags get out of my /v/. REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>381734485
I just play shitty fighter v.
>>381736831
I want to play more Jewpuncher desu
>>381740108
I bet I could absolutely fucking destroy you in Skullgirls right now.
>>381734485
Im finally going to hit up online for the first time in T7 soon but I also want to try out injustice 2 despite it looking janky.
Wish me luck bros
>>381740441
Well be glad, since you'll see a lot more of him in UNIST.
>>381734613
Only guy who plays GG here apparently. I picked it up in anticipation for DB FighterZ, although before I played SFV.
Who is the best SFV DLC character? Wanna spend these 100k fighterydoos wisely.
>>381740564
Play ranked if you want any chance of improving at Tekken. The low, low ranks contain all the scrubs, tournaments are an especially good method. Injustice 2 isn't too bad, but it's a zoning festival which made it boring for me.
>>381740189
I could be very wrong (I'm no professional so I probably am) but I feel like Eltnum is the most predictable character in the whole game. Watching even top 8 matches, I can still get a good idea of what the Eltnum will do since they hardly have a choice but to use the same combo strings and approaches they always use. Wasn't she also nerfed in UNIST?
>>381740539
I'd add you and make you eat your words if my stick wasn't so loud. Post steam and I'll play you in the morning.
>>381734485
1. I suck at them
2. I live in the middle of nowhere and have no friends to play with, local aborigines heard only about Mortal Kombat at best
3. My internet connection is too shit for online play
>>381740910
It depends on who you want to play, asshole.
Balrog is fucking INSANE and I like charge characters, but Kolin has sweet ass counters. But also Guile zones good. Juri and Ibuki are hot.
>>381740995
Who do you play, fag, I play Parasoul and Filia
>>381734485
Ill playthem's fighting herdswhen it comes out, but other than that fighting games are fucking gay
>>381734485
I do and everytime I do the thread dies.
>>381741238
Nigger, you think you have a fucking chance at that game? If it's anything like Skullgirls, you will be hit by a 16+ second, 40+ hit combo and then reset into another one three times until you fucking die.
>>381740910
Ibuki, Balrog, and Guile are all top tier
Kolin and Urien are also good if you're into that shit
>>381741163
I unironically play solocock.
>>381740965
>Watching even top 8 matches, I can still get a good idea of what the Eltnum will do since they hardly have a choice but to use the same combo strings and approaches they always use. Wasn't she also nerfed in UNIST?
You're not completely wrong, Eltnum's most basic combos usually just involve groundbouncing an opponent constantly and shooting them when they're on the ground. There's still a few other variations in her combo paths that are way more strict in their timing.
I'm not sure of her current status in UNIST but everyone got balanced so there's only 3 tiers. I assume you've been watching western tournies with UNIEL? There's a good channel that shows off UNIST and how the Japanese players play them, I honestly haven't watched too many of the western scene for the series.
>>381734485
I'd like to, but it takes too long to get good at a game these days and at that point the community is dead. Also most fighting games have stupid looking characters nowadays.
>>381734485
But i play/practice Guilty Gear almost daily now. Other then that i have KOF14/SFV but neglect KOF14 and SFV is dogshit.
>>381741408
This is the main issue with Guilty Gear and Blazblue
>>381741797
Yes, that is the main issue with Guilty Gear and Blazblue, but not as much as Skullgirls where the combos are MUCH longer, you can land them from a single light punch, low kick or overhead.
>>381736930
How can i be so sure you're some faggot whose favorite games are casual trash like Fallout New Vegas and hates anything even slightly competitive with any skill ceiling to speak of?
>>381741408
dont care, just wanna see my new waifu, arizona cow, in action.
the soft colors are easy on my autistic eyes :^)
>>381734936
Where to start.
Just because you spend hours learning a combo doesn't mean shit. You need to acutally learn the combo not just spend hours on them.
Moving on, knowing a combo doesn't mean you should earn free wins against button mashers. The combo is useless if you can't land it. The only way to win against button mashers if you learn how to play the game.
>>381741797
>Guilty Gear combos
>more then a few seconds outside of Chipp and a few other examples and those are off specific counter hits
What is this meme? GG combos aren't that long time wise alot of characters ground combos are also rather short and only lengthy if they spend meter/land a counter hit more like Sols fafnir in the corner counter hit etc.
A basic combo with Sol for example is 5K 2D bandit revolver or adding a 5/2S in the middle of that. Alot of longer combos are off counter hit moves/AAs. Without meter Ky BnBs end in knockdown and Ky loops aren't that long its just two dp relaunches.
>>381741408
>getting hit
just block, call assist
>16+ second, 40+ hit combo and then reset into another one three times
if this was even a thing, you wouldn't die anymore.
undizzy makes long combos one after another impossible.
>>381734485
There are too many games to play to warrant spending dozens of hours on a fighter just to get good enough to start having fun.
>>381734936
>Learning a combo
>Not learning basic BnBs and how to convert/space first
You lost because you have as bad of fundamentals as he does and don't mash. In a battle of shitters the masher shitter will win at the lowest level since neither play understands how to block/punish.
>>381737150
>Almost never play females to not associate to waifufags
How can anybody be this insecure? You don't disassociate yourself from waifufages by not playing female characters, I hope you know that.
>>381734485
Because I get pissed the fuck off
>>381735580
Nonsense. New players should focus on three things when they start a fighter. Getting comfortable with special moves and their inputs. Getting comfortable with each of your buttons, learning combos, once you have these play multiplayer to learn neutral. The "ignore combos and learn neutral first" is such a fucking meme. Neutral is more important but combos are way easier to learn, takes one good session. And if you don't have combos what the fuck do you do when you win neutral? Nothing. You can't control the pace of the match. Learn your confirms.
>>381742268
>too many games to play
99% of those games won't be as satisfying and fun compared to getting good at fighting games.
>>381741797
A good player will be up your ass in GG buts its not as retarded as BB or Skullgirls. You'd be surprised how based in good old fundamentals it is.
>>381742393
>Not being a angry fighter
Just gotta stay somewhat below autistic spas rage and somewhat above annoyed rage. Anger is a good form of inspiration/fuel if you actually have the desire to improve and get angry at the proper things. Like your own performance. If you get mad at the game sometimes that is fine but don't get mad at your opponent for beating your ass.
>>381734485
why does juri always look like she's taking a huge dick?
>>381742504
GG is fundamental as fuck like this dude says. Shit basically has SF/KOF style neutral with anime speed. Oki is strong as shit but you have to earn your ins.
Fuck Sin though HEY LOOK 5S NON COUNTER HIT LANDED TIME TO CHAIN INTO PRESSURE/OKI!
Sin Potemkin is fucking gay its like being zoned and if you get hit you then get mixed up.
>>381742594
gotta attract people to her shit game/company somehow
>>381742468
I'll take your word for it anon.
>>381734485
I dont care to. Last fighting games I got into were SC2 and DoA 3 that was many years ago.
I like watching Evo and such but I dont really care to learn and play.
>>381742551
I get mad at myself and the actually laggy as fuck matches I get every other time.
Last fighting game I ever played was MK9, I can never go back.
Shit was unhealthy I think, I shouldn't be getting pissed off doing something I like.
>>381742268
Im like the complete opposite. There are so few games I give a shit about that I play fighting games while I wait.
>>381742789
>MK9 online
They wanted me to pay for that shit since i was renting the game and didn't get a "pass" one of the saddest netcodes in existence.
Although with most fighters i just add people with good connections and play from there. No point in playing more then 1 game in GG when some dumb faggot is at a solid 8f of delay and its not going down. And magically those people can move in that water and not do impressive shit but finish extremely basic combos/strings which means they've spent a large amount of time in it.
Ill never understand why.
>>381742676
Thats why I switched to Ky as a former Sin main. I felt like I wasn't really getting better playing as Sin.
>>381742551
this is an absolutely terrible mindset. all that does is push pressure on yourself even more, and make you fear losing. all the best players didn't become the best because they were fucking pissed.
>>381742831
Fighting games specifically Arcsys games are pretty much the only games i can take seriously with a competitive mindset nowadays. If i had a working PC since im broke as fuck and still haven't been able to afford shit ill probably buy some passable parts and make one soon enough to play Quake Champions
After Arcsys fighters/SNK arena shooters were my meat and the genre has faded so much since shooters were always the most casual genre and paid for it by being poisoned by them.
>>381742728
Sucks to miss out. But that's the soup you swim in
>>381742994
Not really in my experience. Also you're acting like i mean to say im always pissed when that is just how angry i get when i get angry. I play entire sets losing plenty of times without much anger that is just my cap. Also
>Fear losing
No i fear having a bad performance. Dropping my shit , making poor choices , and playing on tilt.
If someone rapes me regardless of me doing those things right i usually don't get mad at all. That is my opponents great performance outwaying me.
But i understand why you'd think that. Most angry people are little cunts who quit 10 minutes into something anyways. But i don't feel that way i get pissed and spend hours in training mode or going through mental simulations on what i could do better.
I don't care about losing or winning they're just situations from why i love fighting games. I want to get better in any facet. I enjoy so many things about fighting games each day.
>>381737150
>pick cool-looking character
>try them out
>if they're too tricky or you're not having fun, try a different cool character
that's really it. That's how I started using Akuma in Street Fighter and Reptile in MK.
>>381742430
You learn rudimentary bnbs so that you have SOMETHING when you open someone up. But people tunnel vision into combos and have no idea how to actually deal with another person and that can only come with time and actually playing. But people spend hours in training mode trying to memorize combos, get rolled up and then get mad because of it.
>>381734485
I do, but the update to my game isn't until after EVO so I have to grind out my inputs before I import it again.
>>381734485
>spend hours learning combos
>when I'm actually in a fight I completely forget how to do it
>>381734613
sauce right fucking now
I'm shit.
>>381734485
Because I can only play Soul Calibur II's campaign so many times, and every other "serious" fighting game I've played has either rapidly lost my interest (BlazBlue, Skullgirls) or revealed itself to be full-retard preemptive combo-inputting autism.
Give me Soul Calibur V on Steam with all DLC bundled into it, and I'll play fighting games again.
The only fighting games I've played a fair/moderate amount of (besides Soul Calibur II and IV) are Super Smash Brothers Brawl and Injustice (which I quickly dropped after finishing the main story).
>>381736075
This. Why I'm excited for DBFZ.

How does Seth's futon feel like?
>>381743901
>Live in bumfuck nowhere part of Ohio
>Like 5-6 shitters to play GG with like absolute shit only one of them can even be called someone whose learned the basics
DBZF is something i look forward to since it will probably have some sort of a small scene here. I have people on GG on my friends list with solid connections but local play is super fun and i can have great sets online but i wanna feel some shitters tears when they cannot make their Goku feel strong.
my friend gets discouraged playing fighting games because he can't properly execute everything 100% of the time so he just ends up moping while playing, he's the only person I played fighting games with really so it's lame
>>381744189
He needs to get a new one, it's been too long.
>>381744498
That's at least fixable. Try a friend that screams and loses his fucking shit if he loses more than twice in a row, refuses to adapt and literally won't play if he can't get that "YOU WIN" screen at the end.
He also blames you if you play a good footsies game and try not to do unsafe moves.
>>381737958

Well that was a waste of $60.

>>381734485

>>381737692

>>381734613

>>381740108
You could get one of the older Guilty Gears or BlazBlues. They're fairly dead but I'm sure you can find an autist or two on /v/ to play you.

Check it.
What other genre has you buy one game and invest months worth of time to finally get good. By that time plenty of other games have come out but you're stuck trying to make little progress till the next one comes out.
Why do you think nigs and spice like em? Perfect investment.

Looks like it's on Steam. If I buy it will /v/ play with me? Or is it a meme game that will be dead in a week?
>>381746791
The version on Steam is UNIEL and it'll be dead in a month because the newest iteration UNIST comes out, with a 4 new characters, a story mode as well as a mission/tutorial mode for once in the series' life.
This is the version to get but it's not for PC as of yet.

>>381747015
So wait for the sequel because even if it's dead by the time PC gets it, it'll at least have more characters and single player stuff to fuck around with. Gotcha.
I mean, UNIEL's only $8 due to the sale so I might still get it, since I've already got everything I want.. Would you recommend it over Arcana Heart or Melty?
>>381747015
>>381746791
The steam version is on sale for like 7.50 to be fair, and if he's PC only then if he wants to play the game he doesn't have much choice.
>>381746791
I'll play with you, but the game will be dead next month like >>381747015 says. The new update will finally hit consoles after like two years or something and most people who have been waiting will import itand the playerbase on PC is already pretty small. No one knows when or if the new version will get localized, either.

I was under the assumption that AH was probably one of the most dead fightan games on Steam but I'm not sure how it is. I'm biased towards UNI because its urban setting appeals to me a lot. Melty is fun but you'll have to find the meltyfags to play with them. I guess what >>381747405
>>381747436
is fair too, it's pretty cheap so it isn't a bad investment to at least get a taste of the series.

Shmups.Racing sims. Rhythm games (at least back in the day when bemani games were released on ps1/2). Classic arena shooters.

The Console version is rebalancing a lot of the characters anyway.

I do play them but not as often as I used to. Every now and then my friends and I will grill, have beers and spend an evening playing various fightan.

Shallow an boring.

>>381748051
She was mid tier. Not bad but not amazing. Her zoning is great but her defense is COMPLETE ASS. All her normals appropriate for poking out of defense are pretty slow and she has no reversal besides FULL METER. The nerfs they did were mostly to her damage output so they were pretty unnecessary IMO.
We'll see if the console version changes things up but it was pretty ridiculous when most of the characters in her power level were buffed.
V while being full of children and fucking losers
it's full of casuals ... retarded casuals that are obsessed with Samus's buthole

I rarely play online but back when SkullGirls first dropped I played with anons from here for a bit. Surprisingly polite dudes and fun matches. The general attitude here has changed since then though.
>>381748627
I guess I was just against a decent Yuzu player or I was being trashy and pressing buttons.
>>381749328
I mean she's definitely a good character who can blow you up really fast especially if you aren't good at knowing when to dash block and can do it quickly. But if you get her in the corner and she has no meter she just gets destroyed.
Dark souls is a fighting game right?

That's kinda their charm, just look at the original Melty opening:

>>381734485
i do
>>381751740
At least Melty is somewhat old and was completely a doujin fighter. UNI is completely of their own original work and they still utilize older key art and the likes.
Not that I'm complaining of course, both still look nice.

>>381734485

>>381754212
This is advanced trolling.
In a fighting game, characters do what you want, retard. If you press the medium punch button, they do a fucking medium punch.
>>381743763
This is true
Remember, you actually have to hit the opponent to start a combo. Some combo requires a special condition as well. For example, why would a beginner spend hours mastering Sol's dustloop when they never can get opponent into a corner and can never land a hit once getting the opponent in the corner for that dust loop. Just learn a basic midscreen ground combo and air combo and starts playing matches. Dustloop can be practiced later over time.

Because they are 100% PvP games.
Why do you think there's so many black players? Because they get to whoop someone's ass without going to jail.
>>381746398
No, nigs buy them because they're naturally more prone to violence than other races and this is a genetic fact.
The fact that a lot of them happen to be in the low to medium income zone is just an unrelated coincidence. The same could be said about any non-black if you wanted.
>>381744498
I had a friend complain about shoryuken movements (z inputs as he called it) because he doesn't like the idea that the movement puts you in the air. He also complained about QCF movements in general as well, making a big deal of it from the MvC:I story demo.Don't know if this is relevant enough to point out because I don't want to start shit, but he is a Smash 4 player. He's translating the movement mechanics from Smash 4 to other fighting games unfairly, though it sounds more like he's making up reasons to not play them other than he doesn't want to.
had a 65 lose streak. really killed my motivation
>>381757713
Why don't nig nogs play FPS's as much as white people and asians?
>>381734936
Go away Mike
>>381757819
There's lots of lanky black people but most of them that I've spoken to have very good builds and in general are quite fit. Pointing and clicking is a slightly different breed of violence compared to close contact, even if it's on a screen. Shooting is impersonal and unattractive mainly because it's actually less violent than going up close and smashing someone's face in. Whites and asians like that shit because it's less personal.
You shoot the guy over the other side of the barricade, see him go down and never come back up again and you're done. There's not much emotional involvement with it.
Not that I'm trying to paint a better picture of whites/asians by implying they're less prone to violence, there's plenty of crazy fuckos in both of those races. It's a matter of quality over quantity.
>>381758172
I didn't manage to link my argument well enough actually, what I meant to say is that because a lot of them are very well built they enjoy the close quarters aspect of a fight rather than the long range snoozefest.
It's a bad example but because I can't think of anybody else, take a look at LowTierGod.
>>381739102

And DOTA is somehow better because leaving the game up to 4 other retards is easier to win than getting good at a fighter - all by yourself.

>>381747354
Tabletop, specifically W40k, since you have to drop thousands just to be able to even play at all.
I used to be good at fighting games but nowdays I'm too slow and I can't keep up, I also have major difficulties learning the moves and combos in new games, while I'm still good at older games like DoA or Soul Calibur 2 or even Killer Instinct on the N64, any new game I try to pick up I'm completely shit at and I can't git gud no matter what. The last games I tried before giving up on the genrre were SFIV, Blazblue, Soul Calibur 5 and DoA5.
>>381766294
You don't have to be good at a competitive game to have fun. Unless you're one of those salty bitches that goes into a frothing rage whenever they lose.
>>381737150
I usually just pick characters with pokes or grapplers. Shit like Vega, dahlsim, abel, gief, t.hawk and hugo in USF 4 were the shit. Im playing gg now since sf5 is garbage but the only character i really like was Axl. I tried playing pot a while ago for around a month and that character just sucks.
Hey you bad kids. You know what???post feet
>>381737150
i just go with whose combos are the most natural
also i really hope you're an exception and most fighting gamers aren't as retarded as you are
Fighting game girls are just for being able to make overtly sexual characters because the universe they're made in is less important as it would be in a non-fighting game. So tits, ass, midriff, legs, feet andarmpitsare really the main draws
>>381734485
As a SF player, who should I play in Xrd Rev 2?
>>381766424
I don't have fun anymore because my play style is combo based, in newer games I can't get to learn the combos and it just pisses me off. In older games I always played combo heavy characters like Talim in SC or Ayane in DoA, but lately I have issues learning the combos and even when I learn them I can't pull them off reliably in matches even against faggots who spam the same attack over and over. Then there's this renaissance of 2d fighters like SF which are not combo based but space control based, those I can't play at all for some reason.
In older games like SC2 I was proficient with ALL characters but in SC4 I was only proficient with Talim which was my main in SC3, same thing with DoA, in DoA1 and DoA4 I was proficient with all, in DoA5 I am decent only with my main Ayane.
I can't seem to adapt to the games anymore, even faggots who spam the same move over and over fuck me up while I try to pull off the combos I've learned, failing at it completely.
Must be because I'm 31 years oldalso a wizard btwand I'm getting too slow and too fixated on a technical playstyle based on combos I'm too slow to pull off.
Doesn't help that my favourite fighting series, Soul Calibur, was first raped by meme character creators (so online I ended up playing nothing but unfunny meme characters, fursonas, or autismal self inserts), then raped again by f2p bullshit, then raped in SC5 where most characters I liked were removed or completely altered which forced me to re-learn all the combos.
/blog
>>381767401
Probably Sol or Ky. Who did you play in SF?
>>381767492
I could play pretty much any character in SF, but a lot of the Xrd cast I've played just feel weird. I've mostly played Ky since I've played as Yu in P4A before.
>>381737150
I play the shota or the loli
>>381734936
You can beat 70% of a fighting game playerbase without knowing a single combo, and practicing spacing instead.
Is Nanase getting better in UNIST? I haven't really been following the game that much, but she's my main.
>>381767431
>faggots who spam the same move over and over fuck me up while I try to pull off the combos.
I know that feel too well.
>>381740342
Urien is mid tier now. We hate Guile and Balrog.
>>381736930
This
>>381767973
Because you faggots learn the combos but don't learn the game. Shows that you're too used to "learning" games in a single player, vs cpu predictable mindset, while online against real human beans it's all about adapting and "reading" the opponent.
>>381767736
You should probably pick someone who doesn't have any gimmicks, like Ram's semi autonomous swords or Jack-O's minions. I hear Slayer's fairly straight forward, but I haven't played GG much. I mainly stick to Ky myself. One thing I hate is how I keep forgetting that his DP doesn't work the way I expect it to.

>Those people that learn the specials/combos first and don't bother to learn their normals.
A lot of scrub fights you can win without doing anything more than command normals. It mines so much more salt as well.
>>381737150
Usually I look for:
>Female character. Because I feel more comfortable playing a girl.
>Projectiles or other elements, such as puppets, that let me play alonside them. E.g. Myay's dolphins/beach balls and to some extent Kolin's icebergs.
Design can influence my decision but it's not that important.

I wish you could disable move inputs.
I get frustrated as Bison sometimes so I throw out the sliding kick which works against scrubs but anyone else is a free "pls rape my face"
It's a real bad habit that I wish I could turn off
A advise to all the people who go after combos right after getting into a game.
Learn hit confirms in all the street fighter they are more useful than combos and even in game like usf4 a fierce or round house followed by a special move always does more damage than usual 2 light punch than strong plus special move

>>381734936
You also have to practice execution, just being able to 'do it' is the first step. There's ways to punish mashers and people that use their rage art every round, once you learn how to punish it's basically free wins.

>>381771908
If you want to play offense with guile throw a boom, walk up behind it, and either try to hit the opponent with normals or with a tick throw. Build a charge during blockstrings so that you can boom or flash kick afterwards. Pretty much the same as every other character. Guile kind of sucks at offense in most SF games but it's just kind of. Pick Chun if you want a charge character with more offense. Chun is a damn monster when she's up against an opponent with no good anti-air.
>>381734485
Because they are the equivalent of fifa or madden. Every year or 2 a new one comes out. Not worth getting good at.

>>381737150
>does he/she give me an erection
>does he/she have a move that gives me an erection
Works 100%
>>381734485
The skill ceiling for base level competency is high and I'm kind of a shitter.
Because I could spend hundreds of hours learning optimal combos, be able to do those optimal combos at any point in time with muscle memory, study the game for every character and all their frame data, then finally apply all of that knowledge to take down a strong opponent, or I could play basically any other game and get way more enjoyment for the time that I put into it.
>>381773743
I love how TheMainManSwe constantly calls scantily dressed fighting game women sluts and prostitutes yet when he played SFV he played Urine with that outfit.

>>381740108
i wish i liked skullgirls enough to keep playing it.
I tried to make myself play the game on ps3, ps4 and pc but i never find anyone from my region.
i even went to discord but most people there just waifu post all the time. I only got one match out of the discord.
I was even able to play a little with the japs while i was there but fuck me the lenght of the combos is huge as hell and not being able to tech throws while crouched kinda sucks(at least i couldnt at the time, not sure on how it is now).

Did ESPN really censor SFV or is it just a meme? How did they do it? Force them to run a mod that covers the girl characters up more?
That birdie tho.
Thanks for playing. Sorry if my other characters other than Bison were just flippy jumping spamming attacks. I dunno how to play anyone else yet really.
Got any tips for playing against Birdie? I only played a few times against them and get rekt. I don't know which moves are command grabs and what have you.

You are assblasted.
How is the player count on SFV for PC? I have a PS4 too so its no big deal, but i would prefer to get it on PC.
>>381737150
Main has to be the weirdest, gimmickiest character in the roster, not necessarily low tier. Usually ends up being somewhere between zoner to mid range poker. Grapplers are fun to play around as a sub character to.
I usually avoid edgelords and waifubait but I always try to learn every character in the game so I end up liking some aspects of those characters anyways.
>>381734485
I do but everyone picks the top tier characters with the fastest endlag with the highest damage. Even if they don't like the design or the backstory. Kinda ruins every fighting game.
Because my ex cheated on me with a tourneyfag (not even a top ten one either).
Ruined my love of fighting games desu.
>>381775249

I've been playing fighting games for a while now. What the FUCK is endlag? I have never heard that term before.
>>381776142
what game
>>381739672
>those tits in fishnets
goodbye tekken
>>381776607
endlag is recovery. It's a smash term because they use the term recovery for something else.
>>381734485
But i like tekken, guilty gear and BlazBlue, although I suck playing them.
>mfw even normal difficulty perfects me.
>>381776104
>endlag
Smasher detected. Fighting game players say recovery frames. If you said that word at an FGC tournament/local you'd be laughed out. Get the fuck out of this thread. Your shit party game isn't a fighting game.
>>381776989
I used to get perfected in GG until I stopped trying to throw out specials 100% of the time and learned the value of my normals and spacing. Anyone can get good at fighting games, as long as you don't expect to go EVO-tier.
>>381776305
SFV
Tekken 7
GG Xrd Rev2

>Got any tips for playing against Birdie? I only played a few times against them and get rekt. I don't know which moves are command grabs and what have you.
birdie got some of the strongest anti airs in the game, so be very careful with jumps.
the forward leaping grab is slow enough to be reactable - either jab it out of the air before it hits you or neutral jump for a big punish combo.
the regular command grab works like any other command grab - jump and backdash beat it, pretty much everything else loses.
the chain has very slow startup, very long recovery, and can be blocked.
birdies big weaknesses are probably his super slow walk speed, his really shitty jump arc and the fact that all of his (meterless) specials are very unsafe and/or have very slow startup.
also his only wakeup option is EX bullhorn, which has frame 1 armor, but it gets beat by throws and is extremely unsafe on block.
birdies normals, while big, are also very slow. once you are close to him, fast medium and heavy buttons will often beat birdies neutral. he also does not have a 3f normal, his fastest button is st.lk which is 4f.
tl;dr birdie has a hard time dealing with pressure once you are close, doesnt have a good way to get out of the corner, and is very vulnerable to repeatedly getting thrown on wakeup.
>>381776975
>smash term
holy fuck. well that explains it then.
why do these idiots invade every single thread, local, and tournament
It's like they didn't get the memo that they aren't welcome and should get the fuck out. You want to talk about fighting games, or have a community, and these fucking toddlers always invade.
>>381776305
SFV, Tekken 7 and Guilty Gear Xrd Rev 2 are the most popular. You won't have any issues finding players in any of those 3 games.
>>381734485
I've been thinking about playing one recently. Anyone have any recommendations for good ones currently on sale on Steam?
>>381775394
Don't try to punish Birdie's sweep at max distance unless your character has a fast special move like cammy's spiral arrow. Also if they still have a bar after doing an EX Bull head you can bet your ass they'll do it again.
>>381777640
GG:Rev if you want the best one. Be prepared to upgrade to Rev2 when you want a more populated online.
Skullgirls if you want one that's good but less pricey, with a fairly decent online population.
SFV if you want to be a tremendous faggot.
any of the older Blazblue or Guilty Gear games if you want a solid game for pennies, but with totally dead online.
Arcana Heart if you want to masturbate.

Why the fuck did Capcom ruin her in V
>>381734485
So how serious should I take tier lists? I'm traditionally a Ryu main and I just bought SFV(haven't seen any reason to move on from IV until now when I got bored of it). I read Ryu is currently so shit even Daigo left him. Can I still find success with Ryu online or is he just plain garbage?
>>381778519
Tier lists are general guidelines, but every character has the ability to win. Especially in SFV, which is made for babies and casuals.
>Playing sfv.
>>381778778
>playing video games
So I just bought the latest Guilty Gear on PS4, there's a technical control mode and a stylish one which are for new players. Which one should I as a new player coming to Guilty Gear use? Also, is Sol Badguy a good pick for a new player? I like his design quite a lot. Slayer also looks pretty cool. What character do you guys recommend for a new player just starting out?
>>381778519
>I read Ryu is currently so shit even Daigo left him. Can I still find success with Ryu online or is he just plain garbage?
well this guy got into master league with ryu a few days ago

Really makes you think
>>381779013
Pick Technical because Stylish won't teach you anything. Sol is a great choice for a new player. You can also give Ky a shot for something slightly more advanced.
>>381763432
>Literally me: the post
CFN? Wanna play sometime?
I've been trying to get better in 3S, and I feel like every time I learn something new or realize something I gotta relearn how to play all over again with the things I learned in mind. Because if I try to use them without relearning I just end up eating shit trying to do them without knowing what can confirm it or what it loses out to. Feels like I'm climbing Olympus Mons with mile-wide plateaus glued to the side every 100 feet up.
>>381778519
Tiers doesn't matter unless you play in tournaments. Online anything can work.
I love Skullgirls
Once I was able to pull of a like 75% damage combo (true combo not reset) with Big Band and Fillia. Wish I could reproduce it but honestly I was mostly mashing. The team I like to use is Valentine+Filia(Hairball)+Big Band(Beat Extend).
>>381779645
3S is the only game I still get perfected on despite hours and hours of practice. It doesn't help that some of the people on fightcade have over 400 hours in the game, and that's just confirmed hours on fightcade. They've probably played 3S for thousands of hours on other platforms.
>>381767431
>combo based
lmao you are clueless about fighting games.
>>381737150
>plays how I like
That's it. Don't care if the character is a gay furry tranny.
>>381757819
1v1 for real men.
>>381780589
That's the only bad thing about 3S on Fightcade, only way to practice is to fight people on there. I met some real helpful people, but I can imagine that it gets real boring beating the shit out of people like me who are still learning.
>>381776305
Tekken 7
Guilty Gear Rev 2
Street Fighter V
Honorable mentions go to Injustice 2, King of Fighters 14, and Blazblue Central Fiction, but those games are varying levels of dead already.

I can't play shmups either as I don't own any arcade cabinets.

Unable to play RTS games because I don't own a backlit mechanical keyboard that makes hitting 300 APM easier.

>>381788764

>>381788459
Bots are retarded. The Tager bot is extra retarded. Wall him out with projectiles and don't get hit by his magnet ooga booga otherwise you might as well drop your controller.
>>381788854
Is there really no way to get out of that or was the other player just being retarded?
>>381789247
Combo counter didn't turn grey so no he couldn't have escaped.
>>381789247
He could have used his Burst, but other than that it's a real combo, so no.
>>381734485
Because they are too hard for me.
>>381788924
Is there any guy in UNIEL that doesn't look like a total fag?
i hate fighting, i have bad reaction skills, and i tend to be unable to mentally unlink having a bout of friendly competition from being personally attacked by the other players as individuals. i can't even play worms without getting fucking mad.
also every single fighting game i was ever forced into playing with someone they were already shit-hot at it while i on the other hand, didn't even know the controls or combos. not to mention since i don't play these kinds of games i have no real tact for them. it always felt like they just wanted to win against someone who was bad so they could feel good about themselves.
>>381789887
>>381734485
No friends
Too hard
Don't have any modern consoles or a PC that can play games made after 2010 acceptably
No desire to spend thousands of hours practicing in a fucking game just to not get instantly beaten when I could make actual improvements to my life
>>381768703
That's not the problem. He is complaining that Ryu's shoryuken sends him into the air, but doesn't use an up motion. He wants the motion to be 258 punch instead of 6236 punch so that the up input matches Ryu going up with his shoryuken. Even then, he complains about 236 motions and 214 in general like they're the worst thing in the world.

>>381776305
GG:Rev 2
Tekken 7
SFV
Those 3 have a healthy playerbase and you won't have any issues finding people at your skill level to play with.
I've put in over 20 hours in SFV in the past 3 days and it's fun but I get disconnected from matches with error 40002 every few games. It's fucking annoying and I feel bad for my opponents too, they probably think I'm quitting to preserve my rank.
>>381734485
I got no money for the newest games every time something comes out. I can play single player with the pirate versions but it gets stale really fast.WTT my soul for a copy of Tekken 7 on steam.
>>381788459
While I enjoy Guilty Gear more and it looks alot better than Blazblue the girls in Blazblue makes me diamonds, especially squirell tits and Mai.
Too centered around complex combos, I don't have time to autistically practice a game for hours just to learn how to play. The only fighting games I play are ones where you don't need to learn combos and fighting skill is dependent on skills other than memorization like smash or the DBZ fighting games.
Because I don't enjoy comboing as much as the game requires.
That's why I played scrub-style Fuerte in IV almost exclusively. Taunting enemies and baiting them, playing a guessing game through the whole match was too much fun.
>>381771613
thats the epitome of intermediate player
recognize your patterns
Why does Melee use CRTs and not other fighters? Wouldn't they have a worse time with input lag since the inputs are stricter?

The laughable balance found in most fighting games pisses me off when I can't use my favorite character or the character I want because they aren't good enough or because of the obvious bullshit found on other characters. This is why I also gave up on Smash Bros.
>>381734485
they often feel overpriced for the amount of content compared to nearly any other type of game.

>>381796636
You are not even remotely good enough for the balance of the game to have an impact on you, especially if you're playing Smash Bros
>>381797032
It does have an effect.... it's just that the tiers are different than they are for top level players.

>pulling shit out of your ass about someone you don't even know
Tiers matter at every level of play above the lowest level retard.
>>381797362
Hey Smash is a pretty legitimate fighting game. It has all the technical stuff other fighting games have. So you should take your shitty eltism and GTFO.
>>381734485
Because too many of their combos rely on overly complicated moves and techniques that are simply too difficult for your average gamer to execute.
Meme on games like Smash, Soulcaliber and Nidhogg all you want but they dont force a new player to spend months of tedium just to get a single character to a respectable level.
Forcing singular specials to button chains is clearly bad design when more and more devs are resorting to simplified control schemes.
SF5 is the most infuriating and mentally exhausting game I've ever played, at least SF4 allows some sense of control over your character, but SF5 is just hard to control city.
Uppercuts irrelevant
Footsies dominate
Specials can be punished hard by Footsies into combo set-ups
There is no reward for playing defensively, you just get scrubbed.
Whoever guesses right wins.
>>381797362
Explain why smash is not a fighting game without using buzzwords. I've been looking for an explanation for years but fight fags just get assblasted everytime. I'm not claiming smash is as mechanically deep as other fighting games, nor am I a smash fan, I just want to know how this retarded logic works.
