Street Fighter V: A Preliminary Thread

[Indalecia]

Several times I ex'd and got stuffed early on and kept the meter. Dunno if it's just first frame or not but yeah, I was seeing it too.

[Cjskater]

FANG theme is actually really good (at the end). Didn't expect that but I guess because he's so fucking ugly he has to have something redeeming.

[Callisto]

In general I really like the music of the game so far, probably more than the actual game lol

I didn't watch it all but I did manage to fall asleep at my desk. The most hype thing I saw was a Bison go for a meaty and get blown up by a wake up CA

That's more or less the most hype thing the engine is capable of lol

The more I see Birdie, the more I want to play him.

His combos actually look fun as well.

Capcom saying that there will be zero balance adjustments made to the game until Capcom Cup 2016 is over.

I'm sure this will end well.

Constantly making tweaks every month or two would be the absolute death of any long-term tournament competitive fighting game. I think having a full year to analyze what changes they want/need to make, doing them all in one big sweep, and then letting it settle for another year is a much, much better way to do it.

No one wants a situation where someone is on track to win Capcom Cup, then lolnerfed their character, buffed some middle tier character, and all of a sudden a no-name who mains that character sweeps the tournament.

This is a very good thing, whether the initial frames are great or bad.

Wasn't that one of the biggest jokes against NRS games where shit was getting changed on a weekly basis? What was the new word they were using instead of nerf/buff? I remember it being hilarious cuz Aris made it a point to make it sound ridiculous.

Capcom has been pretty bad about initial balance with almost every game they release. My point is more that we might see representation of the cast be obscenely lopsided come CapCup if they screw up somewhere (which they probably will)

At least one tweak at the halfway point of the year might be a good idea, but I guess we'll see.

[Tohmane]

They normalized.

People are so fucking quick to jump on the nerf/buff bandwagon. You have to let a build sit for a long time to really understand what needs to be adjusted. Even one year is fairly short.

[Deejay]

This game will have some broken shit upon release regarding balance... My only concern is if it will make for a fun game to watch. Even if it's bullshit, if that bullshit ain't fun to watch then the game will be DOA

The answer is already available: nope. Even watching Infiltration or Xian stream it was boring as hell.

The first like 2 majors will be hype because of manufactured "no other choice but hype". I mean, even MK is hype the first 2-3 tourneys its out, lol.

There you go! "Normalizing" shit is never good lol.

[shidobu]

Jesus lol.... if this ever gets pulled off mid fight ima loose my shit
