Why is it still losing players?

>>385386591
>less content than fucking SFV when Tekken has always had a wealth of single player content and neat modes
>shit roster
>worse netcode than SFV
>absurd load times
>Rage arts
>The worst story mode that has ever been in a fighting game
Gee I wonder why?

>fighting game
>dead

pick 2

>>385386903
Ive been playing it a bit lately, what more content does a fighting game need? The gameplay is complex, I think this game will have a core playerbase for a long time

>>385387118
How about game modes that were standard in previous games?

>>385387118
>Tekken
>deep
Don't confuse jank with depth, the game played at intermediate and high levels is nothing but dancing around your opponent and touch of death combos

>>385387118
a tutorial mode would be nice.

>>385387353
Jank this
*grabs crotch*

>>385386591
Because fighting games rarely get new players after their release.

See: Street Fighter 4 and it's next few releases.

You get numbers in a fighting game by waiting a few years and then releasing a new iteration.

>>385386903
>>The worst story mode that has ever been in a fighting game
lolno

>>385387034
This desu. When will people stop falling for the fighting game meme?

>>385387353
>fighting game at intermediate and high level is played the same
Woah...

I am still not playing SFV.

>>385389058
Cammy so good

I think people finally realized fighting games suck?

>>385386591
It's a fighting game.

People buy them thinking they want to get gud, realize that's hard, and then stop playing.

im enjoying it

>>385386591
It takes too long to find a goddamn match holy shit that's annoying as shit. A major appeal of fighting games is that you can jump in and jump out whenever and have a complete experience as long as you played for like 2 minutes. Somehow fighting games forgot how to make lobbies accessible and others chose to go with broken matchmaking.

>>385386591
Because fighting games are a dead genre

>>385389798
Tekken loading times are too much

>>385389931
This. Why are SFV fans so butthurt by Tekken making a comeback? Who really cares. You Capcom fans defended SFV during its shitty launch and now you can keep defending it, don't worry, no one will take your game from you, Street Fighter will always have a playerbase.

>I CAN'T BELIEVE PEOPLE ENJOY A 3D FIGHTER THAT TAKES MONTHS TO LEARN, THIS TRIGGERS ME!!!

>>385392636
Speaking as an SF that tired to dabble in pretty much every other fighting game that gets released I don't get it, the games an objective step down in terms of content compared to previous Tekken and the gameplay is janky bullshit compared to Virtua fighter

>>385386591
>No single player content
>Fighting game
>Also require tons of time to get good at
>Tekken being one of the hardest with all the complex bullshit
>Rage
>Awful load times
>Awful online
>Awful customization which was better in other Tekkens

This and SF deserve to die.

>>385392954
I don't know man, not sure where you get the idea of janky bullshit. Let's break it down, the majority of Tekken moves would be considered "normals" in other games so there's stuff like -

Pokes
Strings
Launches
10, 12, 14 frame punishes
Counterhits that cause the opponent to crumble which = combo time
Rage arts
Unblockables
Armor, low and high crush
Reversals, throws
10 hit combos
And now we have projectile characters

Maybe you lack a basic knowledge of the game and it bothers you for some reason?

>>385393384
I'll make no bones about being a fucking scrub in Tekken but I'm pretty good at SF, it's a shallow as fuck complaint but the way the combos look in Tekken with the bouncy is just fucking stupid and the game feels more like it just wants nothing but high execution touch of death combos and dancing around until you get the opening for them than it wants fundamentals, also rage arts are stupid as fuck one of the best things about Sf5 was ditching the fucking ultra's from 4.

any fighting game online is bad for your health.

Once the initial release month period is over, there is absolutely no motivation left to play. I have 300+ hours in Tekken 7 and I hate this game after playing too much

>>385393682
You never see rage arts at higher levels of play. Hell when you get to blue ranks people stop spamming them.

Rage drive is a great new mechanic though.

>>385393920
>300 hours in a month

It's not Soul Calibur.
Tekken has always been the least loved IP among the fans no matter how hard Namco suffers from favorite child mentality. Tekken characters just aren't as endearing and when all you have is functions you might as well play the game with more players even if it's not your favorite franchise.

Not making an excuse for load times, but as someone who does hours of ranked at a time I can appreciate a 45 second breather to analyze my opponent and generally catch my breath before throwing down again. I've seen players, myself included, completely transform skill-wise between matches and I don't think that would be as easy if it was 15 seconds. In games with better load times I intentionally stall the rematch timer for this very reason. If I lost the first match, I usually win the second off this method. If I won, I ready up immediately and hope my opponent doesn't take the same luxury so I can get my easy 2-0 and leave.

>>385395434
nothing wrong with desu, in tournaments if you just ate a really big loss you can and should go to char select to recollect yourself. It's what that kid Punk shoulda done against Tokido in evo sfv grand finals

>>385396069
I honestly thought to the as I typed the post. I think Punk being so young and headstrong really blinded him to some of the more methodical and nuanced methods competitors use to remain composed in tournament. Punk is so good already he never went through this adjustment phase in his tourney experience, and it took a veteran like Tokido to finally knock him down to Earth and make him realize there's a game being played outside the game as well, and Punk was ignoring it.

>none of the fun modes are in the base game
