Feel like I'm in rare form right now. Things are clicking.

Yea let's not put nasty stuff in the minds of people looking through the status page.

Truly amazing. Locked. Edit: I've decided to sticky this thread for a while, because the OP is a good source of information. It will be a cold day in hell before I unlock it however.

Next comment about anything other than confirmed costumes gets the thread locked. This has been your grumpy threat of the day.

So we done crying about the nerfs? Nobody excited about ANY of the buffs?

Probably because it isn't really a new game. It's a new version that happens to be packaged and sold for platforms that it hasn't been on before. And on the older platforms, its a free update that's missing some stuff. But a new game? Nah. I wouldn't go that far. From a marketing standpoint...

Don't make me say something negative about the intellectual level of most players, please. I'm trying to improve my image. Tina's buffs are legit. She's less about technique and more about the big numbers. And her numbers got bigger. Exactly what she needed.

It was never a real frame trap. 214P raw had certain applications, but the handstand variant was 100% reactable and just online shenanigans. The kick variant came out much, much faster, and if you didn't see that there was only one other possibility.

I don't understand the issue. Now its safe, instead of online-exploitable fake frame advantage -1 safe. I guess there is some fringe application for it being -1, but... Anyhow, I reserve judgment. Shimbori seems to be making a big deal out of crushes (low crushes and jumping attacks...

Ein buffed (with a new move!?). Bayman buffed. Phase buffed. Tina buffed. Zack got new stuff, some nerfs and some buffs. Bass buffed. Ayane buffed. Hayate buffed. Hitomi buffed (mostly). Brad Wong new moves (effectively buffed). Christie buffed. Eliot buffed. Mila nerfed and buffed (better...

Kokoro went from safe to safe, with the exception of P+K which had other changes applied to it as well. Truly, my heart is breaking for her. Let us all lament the fake nerfs of the character nobody in America even uses.

The only thing that allows me to beat a Helena is knowing the players habits. If I'm forced to guess evenly between all options, it is very likely I will lose. All correct guesses reward Helena more than myself, and she has more options that will result in winning any given engagement.

I know how to deal with Helena. It doesn't mean the fight is any easier -- the odds are still stacked way in her favor in just about every exchange, and she has a lot of dumb stuff she really shouldn't have. But it's more of a case where I need to beat the player, not the character. That simply...

I've wavered back and fourth on the difficulty of the hold. The hold being difficult is not the only answer though. As I see it there are three or four viable ways for the hold to work without alienating either audience. 1. Extremely easy to do, even venturing into 3-point territory, but...

This is something most people don't understand, but there is something that could effectively be called "the dream" which effects a lot in regards to customer loyalty, even among the non-competitive players. The Dream represents the general player's dormant fantasy to compete and be recognized...

Team Ninja knows how to make a decent looking crowd, but when they increased the detail on the player models they had to make sacrifices on the stage detail. Were this all done on the current gen consoles from the start, such limitations wouldn't really be all that imposing. Alas, not.

Yea I totally didn't notice before, but Eminem is definitely busting some rhymes there.

Seriously, that audience looks does look horrible. Those 2D sprites look like some shit out of the N64 wrestling games.

Doesn't mean you won't want to.
