No one man should have all that Psycho-Power.

I wish there was footage of actual truly good players out there. Right now my biggest concern for the game(besides netcode) is damage ouput seems quite low. That combined with the fact that the amount of health that can be regen'ed after damage is absurdly high compared to most fighting games, and the not-x-factor lets you regen that health at an absurd speed(on top of your team mates regen outside of battle) makes game length way long.

Now that said it could just all be because everyone's bad and nobody is doing anything even remotely optimal but still its a thing that irks me.

Is there a way to take away a foes regenable health?

Sparkling was nuts with the beta with the regen being outheal some supers that didn't do all the damage in one burst and people just started figuring out stuff like it allowing you to jump cancel normals on block, vanish cancels and etc at the end. I think they'll definitely tone it down. I don't think the game will ever have MvC3 damage but even without training mode people were finding 50%+ combos for a couple bars.

Sparkling outhealing Buu's candy level 3 is funny to me. The damage scaling is absurd.

But yeah I saw that if you snap a character in it seems to get rid of the blue life.

Did you see the sets nakkiel and tatsu played against each other? It's not the highest level of play possible, of course, but it shows that it isn't that hard to get okay damage for not a lot of resources. It's never gonna be a ToD game, but you build meter very fast and if you use it well...

https://twitter.com/tatsunical/status/910257168682586112

That's effectively two bars for 70%. There was another combo I can't find that ended up meter-positive and did about 50% too. Autocombo/starting from lights seems to scale the combo a lot, I wouldn't mind it if scaling was less harsh on that and on lvl3 enders, but you could argue you should just end light confirms into a mixup situation instead of trying to kill from it. Lvl3 Sparking is kinda ridiculous tho, the healing really needs to be finetuned.

Alright then that alleviates the fears a bit. Just hard to judge when all the footage I see is everyone just mashing like crazy.

Still need real netcode though, game is going to release in 2018 with no rollback netcode is drat shameful. Delay base with the army of casual fans DBZ gonna bring on on their broken rear end wifi connections is going to lead to a lot of frustration at launch.

I wish other fighting games did NRS's wifi public shaming technique.
