I love me some fireballs but people are overhyping the V-Skill anti-fireball tools. SF4 characters having an asston of moves that slide under/plow through fireballs for good damage or a knockdown is significantly more hosed up than characters being able to bat down a fireball, build gauge and stand their ground. If you can throw fireballs slow enough that you can follow in behind them and pressure/punish someone who absorbs and throw fireballs fast enough that they're hard to react to at midrange V-Skills will only be strong against players with lovely fireball games. If fireballs do end up being bad it'll be because Capcom undertunes them or adds too many tools that punish fireballs on reaction (bonus gently caress Capcom Points if they require no meter/one bar).

they nerfed knockdowns

im actually not sure how i feel about nerfed kds, as long as you still get a definite advantage and can do something off it, even if you dont get oki. not that poo poo like urien vs yun or whatever where yun will always just back roll into a better range lol

Birdie sort of makes sense to me because he's the one "old" grappler that seems like he could lend himself to this whole "power up mode" thing pretty well.

hell use chains and have vaccum hits or extra throw range or something

Game speeds were always done by frameskipping, which introduces problems the most notable of which was reversal windows shrinking down to literally 0

Also if you introduce anyone who played SF4 as their first fighting game to literally any other fighting game, they'll probably like the non-SF4 one better

you can just do visual frameskip but keep the game still running at 60 ticks, you just don't have to display the 60 ticks

Combofiend was one of the best in the west coast SF scene, also a legendary Marvel vs. Capcom player. It's really sad that this is lost on the new players on the scene.

i can sort of get chip not killing (it does feel weird to die to blocking something, tbh, even if it normally does damage), but at least make ex moves do chip kill. i think all special move chip should kill too but im not married to it.

its not really as big of a deal as like, lovely walkspeeds or bad throws.

You! You're the smart one. Why are normals chipping in this game? I can't think of a reason it would even be necessary.

Edit sorry ixiggle didn't mean to ignore you :)

it gives reward to the person attacking and if they score a hit they get more damage if the other person doesn't escape pressure.

idk its not a big deal or anything, its a better thing than a cvs2 guardbar imo, because if you reward attacking even more, it still gives the defending player a chance to regain themselves.

if you look at how guard bar in gg works, its not that dissimilar, except all the damge is frontloaded and you get more from a jab than a combo in this case, which imo is Not Good but its Better Than CVS2 Guard Bar.

Since the parry command is now MP+MK instead of pressing toward your opponent, it could probably work really well as an anti-crossup defense.

um, in 3s if you try to parry a crossup at the last second it ends up as a block if they end up on the other side lol

I think fighting games are niche because there's no team to hide behind.

Oh poo poo real chat.

thats one of a few reasons, yes. not just hiding behind, but theres no set of people to pull you into the game to play together, and basic actions are harder in fgs than almost any other genre.

also im gonna be real, almost everyone who makes fgs does not appeal to a mass audience with creative design because ?????????

Sakura is behind Chun-Li and Cammy as being one of the most popular female SF characters, at least until the recent poll that Japan and America got where Karin topped the rankings so I have no doubt Karin & Sakura are both making it into the game.

iirc the sean hp thing was a bug, you'll notice it builds way more meter than any other hard move in teh game, and gets it in two bursts which and the second one is the one you usually get on hit lol
