One who is Rad posted:I didn't know Valentine could revive dead characters, drat. It's a level 5 super, you have to be over their body, and it only recovers 25% of their life. Far from useless, but not effortless to set up (thank god, burn in the flames, die).

Orange Crush Rush posted:Also why does Valentine explode during that one super? She makes a dummy of herself, because she's a ninja. Maybe. You know, like how in Guilty Gear, Chipp does the same thing when he uses burst, only the dummy pops like a balloon and he reappears.

Evil Canadian posted:I think most characters can get around the laser super for peacock if they properly block the first hit, usually to the tune of superjump-something. Especially Parasoul, who can just have No. 13 snipe you or throw her guard into the bullets. Blocked Argus Agony seems like a really bad idea.

Microsoft charges developers ridiculous prices to patch games. It's supposedly meant to keep them from releasing really buggy games and such, but on the other hand if it's a good game and needs more than one patch, small developers are hosed. This killed Monday Night Combat on XBLA, for instance.

Honestly if there's like 32 color switches (I remember seeing videos with 20+ color numbers) or something that's fine. It's way more than any other fighting game without a color edit mode has.

Countblanc posted:I'm less concerned about the release timing in relation to other fighters, and more about the marketing. The game needs a lot more stream time than it has gotten, and a lot more top players talking about it. It was brought up on the spooky stream last night and pretty much ignored after the token name drop. We need to have players that the average stream monster adores (Mike Ross, Combofiend, Spooky, etc) hyping the game up, just having it played at WNF off camera isn't going to be enough. We need to have Gootecks talking about how excited he is to be able to pick custom assists, and Arturo saying how fun Peacock is. It's silly, but it sure as gently caress worked for SFxT This is what I was worried about when I said this: PalmTreeFun posted:Is this game gonna get some pre-release hype? I don't want it to flop because everyone forgets about it when it comes out. (Psychonauts) This game really needs more hype before it actually releases so that all the fighting game players and stream monsters remember to jump on right away when the game releases. If extra exposure can do wonders for a game like SFxT I'd love to see what it could do for SG.

Dizz posted:I'd spend infinity dollars on DLC that allows me to not only color in characters, but to edit their sprite animations as well.

I don't feel color mode is really important but it is kind of fun. It'd make all my characters iMac or Tron colors if I could.

Poniard posted:They don't like fighting games either Well, console hardware is actually kind of outdated. Unless you're running on an integrated graphics chip or something, any middle of the road computer would probably be able to run Skullgirls just fine. If anything the issue would be the fact that keyboards are assholes and like to limit your number of simultaneous inputs.

I think Painwheel's gonna be the big pubstomp character unless the tutorials teach about super/hyper armor. Which I bet they will, but a lot of people don't use tutorials because they're so used to them being braindead obvious stuff or something.

Alcoholism posted:It's not low-res pixel art, but aren't they still considered sprites? Maybe there's a qualifier for that term I'm not aware of. Technically, but by that standard you could say all 2D games sprite games. The sprites' resolutions in this game are so large that they're drawn on screen at half size, which basically means that it's enough detail to put the drawings into the game directly without approximating them with pixel art (like Third Strike did). You used to only be able to do that with giant portrait pictures like the vs. screen in Alpha 3 or the half-faces in MvC 1. PalmTreeFun fucked around with this message at 00:32 on Apr 3, 2012 |

Jmcrofts posted:Yeah basically any 2d image that's displayed in a game is technically a sprite. People tend to associate the word with pixel-art type stuff though. Actually, now that I think about it there's vector graphics stuff like Flash, so I think stuff like The Binding of Isaac might not be considered sprites. Vector graphics hog a ton of system resources compared to sprites in general, with the upside that they can basically get scaled up and down infinitely without requiring a larger file to not look like poo poo.

Brother Entropy posted:If you don't like playing against the same characters alot, the game with 8 playable characters might not be the one for you. There are a ton of combinations though. 92 if team order doesn't matter, 400 exactly if it does. Not all of them are good necessarily, but there are a lot of options.

Oh, of course. Then again, I'd say any character that gets played a lot would be more unique than karate guy in white gi, green jungle man, and secret agent mom.

iPodschun posted:This is on now. Mike going through the "simple hitboxes" colors in practice mode as they change depending on character state. Neutral, blocking high, blocking low, blocking both (chicken blocking), throw invincible, totally invincible. There's also an advanced hitboxes option but I missed what Mike said Advanced adds the character collision boxes in dark blue, the point the character is considered to be at as a white dot. Didn't explain the white dot much, but the dark blue collision box is also the throw hitbox. Anyway, my favorite part about the colored hitboxes is that they make it super obvious if something has significant frame disadvantage on block, almost as much as the blockstun meter. I'd love to see that in other fighting games.
