Who are you looking to play in Dragon Ball FighterZ?

Why haven't Android 21 and Buu 21 been revealed to be playable yet?

Anyone else going to EVO Japan?

>>14030773

When does the beta for Fighting EX Layer end?

>>14031476

Christmas day, the training mode will still be playable afterwards so if you haven't downloaded it yet and want to mess around; I would get on that.

Oh, good times…

But as for that episode, goddamn Athena did a SDM SCB enough to nuke the Korea Team in a room where psychic powers were being conveniently but from the Fatal Fury fight, Mature can control the where people are going suppressed. They're not holding back her goddess background.

>>14030671

Beerus and Hit look like they're the most interesting and complex characters by far from what I've seen up until now, so I'd like to have those two in my team. Third character would be either Cell or A16.

>>>/fighters/8843

>>14033262

A few of those complaints are due to him being paired up with Chiaotzu. Due to characters only having 2(?) Supers, it had to be the Tri Beam Blast and the Chiaotzu suicide attack.

>>14033262

>Gives him his Super uniform for no reason other than to remind you how shitty he's being treated as a character.

Didn't he have that uniform before Super though? I remember hearing that somewhere it's a pretty far out throwback, just that it also happens to be what he's wearing for Super.

>>14033303

If that's the case it makes sense… But I would have rather had his Four Witches move over seeing Chiaotzu kill himself. It's the only other move that wasn't taken by the other characters, and could've been used to change how he attacks in the game.

>>14033315

Sort of… It's kind of like a color swapped version of his original outfit. It's not really the suit itself that bothers me, but the choice of giving it to him over the more obvious green gi in Z, or his even his buu outfit.

He's the only "Z fighter" being represented at that point in the show. And they've gone out of their way to make him look really bad in Super while playing favorites with the others. So it just doesn't make any sense to me why they'd pick that one as his default.

>>14030671

Pickle-o, Freezer, and probably Beerus.

>>14035404

Ayyyyyyyyyy thanks anon. Merry Christmas.

>>14030671

Nappa, Piccolo, Android 16.

Gotta go with the big bois.

>>14034984

cool armor but not enough skin

>>14035013

they better not go full esports on us

>>14033262

I'm personally picking Tenshinhan because I know everyone looks down on him, spreading lies that Krillian is stronger than him. Krillian never won a tenkaichi tournament, Krillian never bodied Cell, Krillian never destroyed a blast from Majin fucking Buu. I know everyone will run off to play as the Super Sayin's while I build meter to save for Tien at the end and let them watch in horror as I'll Kikōhō them into the fucking pavement.

>>14040638

He better be in it as my mains aren't likely to make the cut. Then again, I found ky to not be as fun in xrd as he was in +r, so maybe it's good it stays that way. I just hope that second team from rwby doesn't make it in.

Indeed.

Thanks. Blue Mary is a great choice and I'm hoping for her coming back in XIV.

>How you people can play and understand those games i'll never know. They are beyond my capacity.

KOF is far from being complicated/difficult. From the general tutorial from OP >>14030447 you can see it's a more "system based" than "character specific based" like Blazblue and Injustice. Combos are more chains on moves than links like Street Figther I don't say there isn't. It's just less prominent and the window for combos is bigger than i regular SF. Besides a few exceptions like Angel, the characters have somewhat the same basic comboflow of "normal->command normal->special move" so you can always start with that one once you start using a character. From '99 onwards you can do super cancels from special moves with some kind of cost like spending an extra meter.

With so many jump options, jump ins are the most used way to approach and start combos since you can easily try to mix up crossups with regular ones but in most KOFs, neutral is pretty strong so a simple normal or command normal from the character can shut down most approaches. As for hop CD pressure many like the infamous one from Chris in '98 that bullies many newbies, the best way to deal with is just to avoid it. Backdashes are generally invincible, guardcancel blowback is there to help from pressure and you can also use roll/evasion depending on the character or iteration you are playing.

Execution is generally not a problem. Things like pretzels I laughed when I saw that Izanami's Astral is one, Blue Mary and Duck King stuff are pretty specific specially post-2002 games where they try to simplify commands and make the inputs more lenient. In the OP there are a lot of shortcuts so even the generally unusual ranbu command (qcf, hcb) input can be easily done with a supercancel from a standard dp.

I think that covers the most of the basic stuff from KOF in general. Of course each game has its small bits like proximity unblockables, unblockable fireballs, OTG setups, wall bounce setups and more general advanced stuff like guard points and anywhere juggles. But just don't fret with that stuff until you got the basic covered. Team sinergy is also not all that enforced besides more Marvel-like games like KOFXI(tag) and '99~2001(assists) so the usual point-battery-anchor archetypes are the only things to worry or not even that if pick more "well rounded" characters like Iori, Robert, Athena, Kyo and so on.

If you really like Blue Mary, I highly recommend 98UMFE. EX Blue Mary is top tier and one of the most fun iterations of her that I ever saw or played like in RB2 where she is based on. So I hope her eventual XIV version is based on that one instead of the old regular Mary.

Too bad Eiji is pure bullshit in that game to the point that he can WALK faster than most characters can RUN. That and his anti air special that makes me think why so many people cry about Sagat, Guile, Inferno Divider and other moves.

>>14043851

I assume you're talking about XIV. They made it blocking really good as a defensive tool specially against fireballs. The comeback factor in KOF is taking damage/blocking = more meter to do a guardcancel blowback/roll or a super later. But I think there's no battery-specific character like Elisabeth in arcade XIII and was sadly hammered in the console release but characters like Sylvie, Benimaru and K'way less now than in 1.0 can build meter by whiffing their "zoning specials" from a safe distance Benimaru himself earns a lot of meter from doing his fast knee special and combining with his ability to deal 45% of damage from a simple 1-bar MAX combo you know who is on the nerf list for ver3.0.

Now anchors are characters that can hurt a lot with meter. Iori is the most common example since he can easily do 60% with a regular far.D into MAX combo ending with a SDM or even canceling in a Climax to reach 80% with 5 bars. Shun'ei, Athena, Vanessa, Kyo, Chin, Daimon, Mui Mui are also other examples of heavy hitters.

>>14043851

Battery character; Character that can pull off big damage without relying on meter heavily, meaning there will be more meter for your next character. Billy is a good example

Anchor; your third/last character on the team

Early MMA is probably the closest to what you're imagining. They didn't do the "tournament of masters of various martial arts" thing because those masters don't have much to gain but a whole lot to lose by participating see the video of two wing chun masters that got into a fight and ended up wrestling like children, nearly killed the entire style They've spent their entire lives on this one martial art and if they get exposed and can't make a living off it they're in deep shit. But there were enough true believer students jumping in to produce some real freakshow fights before people started to zero in on what worked.

>>14050055

I cannot play Xrd online because Steam is fickle and Japs can't into netcode, but I would be happy to answer any questions you have about the game. It's probably the best fighter on the market right now.

>>14050214

I decided to main Elphelt so:

1: Is she good enough to be viable in higher play?

2: Which of her specials should I be focusing on the most?

3: What combos should I focus on learning?

4: What's the optimal way to deal with characters that can teleport?

5: Why are special move inputs phrased in the style of "236P" online instead of the usual "D, DF, F, Punch" way?

6: When are peak player times?

7: Some of the inputs I need to do seem very hard to pull off reliably on my Hori Fighting Commander's Dpad. Is it a good idea to get a stick or a hitbox?

8: Are there any advanced movement techniques I need to learn how to do that haven't been covered in the tutorials?

That's all I can think of for now, thanks for the answers.

>>14050243

There is no way this character wasn't completely based on someone's fetish.

>>14050272

1: She got nerfed like 4 times, yet she's still high tier. I'll let that speak for itself.

2-4: Fuck nigga that shit is way too elaborate to answer in a single post. Go to dustloop and watch video tutorials if you want proper guidance on how to play her.

5: Those are anime notations, and they are that way because they are universal notations anyone can understand. Look at your numpad, and the directions the number keys represent

6: Evenings, weekends especially. You're best off actively engaging with other players instead of just joining random lobbies all the time though. A requirement in any fighting game that isn't Tekken or made by Capcom.

7: Personal preference. If you can somehow borrow a stick to try it out for 2 weeks, you should go for that. Otherwise, only switch if you really think the fightpad is fucking up your execution, before splurging on a stick and then discovering you don't like that either.

8: If the tutorial didn't cover instant airdashes then you should learn those once you're comfortable moving around. They are not required at a beginner level.

>>14050272

>1: Is she good enough to be viable in higher play?

Lol.

>2: Which of her specials should I be focusing on the most?

In terms of controlling space, I'd say Pine Berry. Special cancelling into it and its throw are important parts of resetting her pressure/extending combos, and it's a huge pain for many characters to deal with. Shotgun stance is also terrifying in the corner since she has access to a command grab or a roll in it, and the gap is only -1 on IB, if I recall correctly. Her gameplan is to control neutral with giant lasers and then make life hell in the corner; Pine Berry is the former and shotgun stance the latter.

>3: What combos should I focus on learning?

Christ, I couldn't tell you. You'd need to look into some of the Discord groups in the OP or on the Guilty Gear subreddit for info like that. As awful as reddit is, the GG sub is tolerable and has good information on the sidebar.

>4: What's the optimal way to deal with characters that can teleport?

Putting buttons where they come out of the teleport every now and again, or imagining a "phantom character" in the spot where he'd teleport to. Slayer and Raven both need to hold forward to teleport so they'll get hit, and Venom needs a ball out to do it, so don't let him set up if you can help it. Chipp is tough, but most antiairs will beat his H teleport (where he drops behind you), especially Elphelt's c.S, and his others are actually less scary than they look.

>5: Why are special move inputs phrased in the style of "236P" online instead of the usual "D, DF, F, Punch" way?

Anime notation. It's just the objectively best way to phrase things, like saying port and starboard instead of left and right. You'll get used to it and then wonder why anyone does anything else and then hate Tekken's awful notation.

>6: When are peak player times?

Whenever players make lobbies. Xrd's online is pretty dead (you're playing Rev 2, right?) outside of player lobbies, so you'll need to use Discord groups to matchmake. The actual number of players is pretty decent, though, and there is usually someone else new whom you can play against.

>7: Some of the inputs I need to do seem very hard to pull off reliably on my Hori Fighting Commander's Dpad. Is it a good idea to get a stick or a hitbox?

I found going to an arcade stick made the movements like wine, but several people at my local scene play with dualshock 4 controllers and do well. I think arcade sticks are way better, but don't invest in one unless you've tried it; anyone at your local scene, if you have one, should be happy to let you play for 20 minutes to get a feel for it.

>8: Are there any advanced movement techniques I need to learn how to do that haven't been covered in the tutorials?

I don't think Elphelt's combos involve anything as gnarly as jump installs. Mostly her hardest elements are managing all the stance cancels and not blowing yourself up with Pine Berry.

>>14050345

Those are Japanese players being broadcast from a Japanese arcade.

>>14050272

>>14050360

Also, I'll take another opportunity to shill the Mikado Tenkaichi Budokai league since Fumo is one of the best Elphelt players in Japan.

>>14050360

>you play for 20 minutes to get a feel for it.

No, you don't get used to a completely new control method in 20 minutes. The minimum to get accustomed to a stick is easily 2 weeks. Those 20 minutes are gonna be awkward as shit for anyone if it's their first time using a stick.

>>14050243

Looking as awful as the rest of the cast?

>>14050375

It took me 20 minutes of not fucking up IADs and 236 motions to realize sticks were better for me.

>>14050385

To each their own I guess. Every pad player I've handed a stick walked around like a bumbling retard for like 5 games and then went "Nah, I don't think this is for me."

>>14050243

>1: Is she good enough to be viable in higher play?

Yes

>2: Which of her specials should I be focusing on the most?

Pineberry for controlling space, probably your most important one in neutral to complement your retarded buttons. Pineberry and shotgun stance is used for your pressure. Pineberry to get them block and to let you get into shotgun stance. Be wary of using ground bridal express during blockstrings, since that's a free throw for the opponent if you didn't rc it. You gotta learn to hitconfirm with bridal if you don't wanna get blown up. Sniper usage depends on the player, so try it if they're fullscreen and you like sniping bitches.

>3: What combos should I focus on learning?

Anything into sweep > pineberry > oki if you're on the ground. It's GG, so if your combos end in a knockdown and you can get some (pineberry) oki going you should be golden. Forget damage and optimal combos, do the combo you can consistently do that leads to kd. Also learn to hitconfirm ground bridal so you don't get thrown. 5H also whiffs on crouchers, so learn to hitconfirm that too.

>4: What's the optimal way to deal with characters that can teleport?

That really depends on the character/situation. Pre-emptive buttons, airthrow might work but I really don't know what context you're talking about.

>5: Why are special move inputs phrased in the style of "236P" online instead of the usual "D, DF, F, Punch" way?

Numpad notation is popular for anime games. Everything is assuming you're player 1, so 6 is forward, 4, is back, etc.

>6: When are peak player times?

Xrd is pretty populated, so afternoon-evening should be fine. You could also try asking for matches on discord.

>7: Some of the inputs I need to do seem very hard to pull off reliably on my Hori Fighting Commander's Dpad. Is it a good idea to get a stick or a hitbox?

Practice makes perfect. Play with whatever feels comfortable, but if you can try a stick/hitbox, see how they are.

>8: Are there any advanced movement techniques I need to learn how to do that haven't been covered in the tutorials?

With Elphelt she can sort of change her air dash/jump trajectories depending on when she throws pineberry. You can use this to move in ways other characters can't, so it's good to know. Air bridal stops your momentum so it can possibly bait antiairs (please mix up your options).

>>14050413

Oh yeah for the teleport thing I forgot to say that you probably want to throw OS teleports like Chipp's where they can appear in front of you. You can do j.4H or j.6H or you can do stuff like j.6XH X being whatever normal you want. If you think they'll teleport, just jump and do that and you'll airthrow if they teleport, or else you'll stick out a normal which they might run into.

>>14046269

>>14046815

Doesn't this seem to imply that increased Marvel meddling is what really tanked this game, along with usual Capcom horseshittery?

>>14050272

>>14050427

Or just use c.S when you see them teleport in because you're Elphelt and that shit is super fast, can be hitconfirmed and doubles as an anti air anyway. Option selecting is much too advanced for a beginner to break their head over.

>>14050437

There were many reasons. This article tell us Marvel was less invested in the game's success than we may have thought (given Capcom developed it and Marvel probably signed a few pieces of paperwork).

>>14050444

Outside of throws, anyway.

>>14050475

It does not matter.

Sooner or later the cucks in ANY brazillian development studio will run to the corrupt government for funds AND fill their staff with women, who are all useless, at the same time, compromising any quality that it might have had.

The reason for brazillian studios making so many garbage games are those two. They are funded and/or directed by literal communist soyboys or are filled with women because the idiots developing the game still think that equality is a real thing. Often both.

Then, the final product is ALWAYS garbage, as the direction comes from clueless idealistc idiots.

There is no winning move.

Any advice on defribilating a scene?

My city has a FGC Facebook page with about 250 members. The problem is that they don’t seem to host regular tournaments ever since the FLGS that they played from closed down. There’s a local barcade we could use.

>>14051405

Provide some structure and people will come. You may have to start out small, but cobble together a couple setups for things like Tekken, Duty V and Guilty Gear/Blazblue and you should see the meetup numbers start to grow. It also helps to hold friendly tournaments every once and a while to spice things up a bit, and hosting in a barcade means that you'll always have an easy prize for first place.

>>14051405

Structure is important, as >>14051447 mentioned, as is marketing. If you can spare the money, put up some flyers. If you can't, just shill hard on Facebook/Twitter so people know. Talk to the barcade owner and get him to advertise, too, since FGC players love to drink.

Also, Tekken is more complex than the other -current- fighting games. That doesn't mean they are similar or that Tekken skills can be reproposed for significantly different 2D fighting games in an easy way. Combos are not an integral part of Tekken, more like a side-element, and they also work very differently.

Why do you play Guilty Gear then? Play SamSho instead.

Also, both games are "anime" but a product of its time. Guilty Gear is late 90's anime and Blazblue is late 00's anime. Just look at Xrd redesigns like Baiken and new characters that they are going with the new times.

Honestly, that's not a bad thing at all. XIV is probably the most beginner friendly KOF ever with its input leniency, flashy combos/supers and simpler system autorun when activating MAX, no extra meter for canceling stuff and no bullshit like proximity unblockables and unblockable fireballs. Now for your question.

>Which of these five characters are worth learning?

All are worth it since none of them is Vanessa. Iori is one of the best characters of the game. Shun'ei and King of Dinosaurs make great point or anchors. Andy is one of the best zoners in the game and jumping on him when he has 3 bars means eating up raw Climax damage. And Antonov got some nasty OTG setups in 2.00. It really depends on your playstyle. If you only want one "shoto", you'll probably will like KoD or Antonov for some grappling or a mix of that with big guy damage. Be in mind that even if Terry, Shun'ei, Iori and Andy all have a fireball, reversal and a forward approach, Andy is much more of a classic fireball zoner, Terry is pure rushdown and Shun'ei/Iori are more well rounded but with different styles (the boy is more flashy with wall combos and Iori is brutal with straightforward damage).

Now my opinion. If you're totally new to the series with not much knowledge of fighting games, I think Antonov OTG setups, grab mixups and King of Dinosaurs classic slower grappler with lots of guard points moves are a bit too much or gimmicky for you. There's nothing wrong playing 3 "shotos" like Terry, Iori, Shun'ei and Andy if they play different enough and will teach the basics. Of course if you love the big guys, you will like to learn their nuances along with the game.

>>14052833

>Why do you play Guilty Gear then?

I've found the combos in GG make more visual sense. I see Sol doing Fafnir > Bandit Bringer > Fafnir Gunflame > air series > DP > oki and it makes much more sense than the five OTG pickups you'll find in any BB combo. And I didn't say anime, I said animu: mostly what I meant was BB's visual designs are just inferior versions of existing characters and archetypes with very little personality due to being overdesigned as hell.

You should update the KOF one with the announcement of v3.0 and a new playable character for EVO Japan. (January 25/26) Hint is either Ash or Oswald: http://dreamcancel.com/2017/12/snk-announces-king-fighters-xiv-version-3-0-new-upcoming-dlc-character-playable-evo-japan-2018/

Do we have a guide on what fighting games are great per console/system?

e.g. I have a 1GHz Celeron processor on a machine that can delicately play SFC games, but I will try some MAME ports soon. (FBA?) In the meantime, what would be some great SFC titles to play?

Fatal Fury, Street Fighter II Turbo - Hyper Fighting, Samurai Showdown, etc.?

Other question for AH3LMSS backers, than what's written on the Kickstarter update, anyone note any real differences or balances changes from the NesicaXLive? So far from the little bit I tried, I can tell I was right in my prediction.

Also can the straight community stop being gay for Valve? Saw some retards sharing some weird key codes instead of dedicated IPs we could swarm from the bittorent seeds. I wish those gay people would leave 8ch and never return, but we can't have gay people without games.

Also, anyone up for some retro tourneys?

>>14053464

I've always wondered why they don't make their own melee clone on unity.

I'm sure some of them have enough talent to make a game.

>>14050931

Okay buddy, It's not about what you personally prefer though. Numpad notations are simply more universal and really simple to understand, because they are easy to visualize.

>>14052301

Whats the name of this Streets of Rage song Remix?

>>14053459

>>14053463

After Verse gets beat it's hinted that many of the souls it contained had been resurrected, Team Official Invitation's ending actually shows Ash having revived and found by Kukri and Elizabeth.

>>14053516

wow, can't wait for the shermie 3D SFM porn.

>>14053516

and that's why none of the DLC is gonna be anyone revived, because they're all still dead/non-existent during the actual tourney. Plus it's pretty obvious all the resurrected characters are just being brought back for pure nostalgia bait for the eventual KoF XV.

>>14053469

PM and Rivals of Aether are that, more or less. There's also Earth Romancer which went into a crowdfunding campaign recently, but that's made by one guy who seems to have bitten off more than he can chew.

>>14053635

That lenient, eh? I figured it'd be autismal like everything else in BB. I'll give him a chance, then.

>>14053864

That was just a generalization, I meant the hardest link I ever saw in an anime fighter was 3F, if we're not including Darkstalkers. Many of Hakumen's "links" feel even more lenient than that.

>>14053966

Oh, even better.

>>14050447

Marvel didn't care about the game as long as the movie characters got in. They thought all the backlash would die down, and people would "like it" like SFV. Marvel didn't ex[ect Capcom and the SoCal fighting game community to fuck things up that badly (Not like this will ruin FiliinoChamp's life, but he's finally been exposed as a complete scumbag in the scene. Wong and his buddies lost a shit load of respect from the non-SoCal scene).

>Wanting 3DPD

>>14053358

meh, it's a fighting game that revolves around stage control with many different shaped and sized stages, with more movement options to utilize.

I'd say it's an arena fighter

since arena shooters are described as shooters that revolve around map control with many different shaped and sized maps, with more movement options to utilize

>>14054787

>arena fighter

I thought the established name was "platform fighter."

>>14054787

It's not an arena fighter; arena fighters have 3D arenas and gameplay like Arms, Virtual On or Gladiator Begins

>>14055105

>The cunts over at >>>/radcorp/ have scheduled a fightan tournament for January 6th for Euro hours and January 7th for NA/SA.

>>14055646

Campaign like the Falcom fans, and contact Bamco Japan directly to let them know that if any of the FGC "pro" players is hired to market DBZ, it will be boycotted. Cite MVCi and SFV as examples.

>>14056565

Well, disclaimer on this being that this is all CPE tech so it might not apply to CF and most of this i've picked up from AI play but sure, here goes:

214B/C -> L1D is starting to become one of my favourite tools for trickery. Using it in the corner after a hard knockdown is a good setup because the hitbox stays active longer than the animation makes it appear to. It tricks people into trying to mash on wakeup into a punish. Using 214B -> L1D at the right time in the corner can actually cross up effectively because Makoto stays against the screen edge and the other player shifts slightly away from it if they quick rise or neutral wakeup. The timing on that has to be precise though.

Using 214C -> L1/2/3D mid screen can be a good bait because your opponent sees the animation start and immediately rises to meet it (only for you to either fall short or to actually catch them midflight with D's hitbox which takes priority). If I get the distance right I can also use 214B -> L1/2/3D to cross up but it's risky and easily punishable, so I don't use it often.

I like using 214B -> 2C to catch some people trying to anti air thanks to the delay but it's pretty situational and depends entirely on the opponent.

Oh and I just recently found out that I can pick up an Astral off a L3 5D fatal wallbounce if i'm quick enough. That was pretty exciting.

None of this should be considered good Makoto play for obvious reasons.

>Why not CF?

CF made a lot of changes that just didn't agree with me personally. Some changes to my main and secondaries felt way too harsh (Makoto's 214A -> 5C -> 5B, 234A -> 5D, changing 234D to C and removing the ability to adjust it's charge etc) and then there was stuff like:

>Hit sounds not being as clean or sharp

>Overall sound quality seems worse on both PS4 and PC

>Exceed Accel seems unecessary, a free super for the sake of a free super

>PC port was shit initially, took a few patches just to get vsync right

I've played through the story and i'll play it if someone wants to throw down (as well as practise with it on and off) but CPE is the game for me. I know it minimises my chances of online play because BB players only jump on the latest and greatest but i'm pretty content to just play offline.

>>14057480

PC has less delay if you turn down vsync and aa. Online on PC can be offline on consoles/arcade, so a lot of people moved to PC. It also loads faster. Other games are like that too nowadays, like T7 and SFV where the PS4 version was considered inferior.

>>14057480

Like that one anon said, PC has gained a lot of traction due to being an objectively superior platform on a technical level, because if there's one thing fightan fags cling to, it's the best possible version of whatever game they play in terms of input delay, etc.

>>14057265

>You should get guilty gear +r on sale though, it's only about $3

This. Or just pirate it, I'm pretty sure it's got cracked multiplayer, but I got it on sale anyway. The netcode being bad is mostly a meme. It's not significantly worse than any other arcsys game's.

>>14055678

The only thing I enjoyed in CPE was the joke branches, but I haven't tried out CF's yet.

>>14052833

>Also, both games are "anime" but a product of its time. Guilty Gear is late 90's anime and Blazblue is late 00's anime. Just look at Xrd redesigns like Baiken and new characters that they are going with the new times.

Which is why GG pre-Xrd is objectively the best in style.

>>14051333 ✔

I like BBCF a lot but the main reason I don't LOVE it is because of the long as fuck combos and what feels like EVERY super having a cutscene. If more than half the match is spent with one or both players just waiting to get to play again, I can't call it my favorite fightan.

>>14055245

>>14056565

trying out ah for the first time too & it actually seems like a really cool game, Lieselotte checks pretty much all the boxes for what i want out of a character.

are there good resources for much in depth stuff for her? the wiki and discord are surprisingly barren for a game with so much going on, there isn't even up to date frame data

>>14057265

Reminder your game is going to have sleazy season passes, denuvo, and day-one disc-locked content. Oh yea, it'll also have shitty characters like Kale, her lesbian butch lover, and the Sjw-Tumblr universe no one likes (the maidens).

>>14059351

>>14059334

All of those characters except for Mizuki sucked, and Iroha should have been forgotten with them. The bitch killed the SamSho series, so fuck Iroha.

>>14059632

Boycotts DO accomplish our goals.

See all the main AAA "can't fail" games that flopped this year due to association with any form of corruption, shills or SJWs.

If the paid shills of the FGC are already hated by the normalfags for their behavior and shilling for trash games, it is the perfect time to mobilize and pressure Bamco to abandon them.

It was done to all the "too big to fail" AAA games this year and it can be done to Dragon Ball too.

>>14056666

>The cunts over at >>>/radcorp/ have scheduled a fightan tournament for January 6th for Euro hours and January 7th for NA/SA.

>>14059689

And how do you suggest to go by this boycott even though it won't affect Dragon Ball at all?

>>14059689

Tekken 7 has scummy dlc and season passes, and it sold ~3 million copies btw.

>>14059686

>Wasn't the rumor that SNK's next game was gonna be Neo-Geo Battle Coliseum 2?

Yeah, but the rumor was suppose to be announced at that last sony event. It's most likely going to be Samurai Shodown since the series has been getting fuck loads of promotions recently, new ports and a new mobile game just entered beta testing today. That and probably a new metal slug since they confirmed it was in the revival plans along with samsho awhile back.

>>14059850

You're hanging out in that shit-hole that's R-kappa, huh? tl;dr he berated a chick who was in a SFxT event on stream, and he looked like a pot-smoking, sexist manchild to everyone. He apologized about it, but the fgc defended his antics on the stream. Everyone moved on from that incident, but Aris is still a pot-smoking, balding manchild faggot who is no better than Wong or Filipino Champ with shilling (Aris will suck Harada and Mike Murray's dicks for a living and weed every day).

>>14059863

Forgot to add if anything, Aris is one of the few guys who didn't become a sjwcuck like Wong, James Chen, Max, Ultradave, and Geoff the Sjwcuck. Despite his Harada cocksucking, he wasn't very happy when he saw some Final Fantasy faggot got added to Tekken 7's roster. Gotta give him credit for that.

>>14059710

And?

SFV floped. MVCi floped. KI floped after season 3.

There are more examples of boycotts working than there are of not working.

And even taking Tekken 7 into account, most of the will to buy it was because of the cancerous mindset of "everything else is shit, so at least this Tekken thingy must be good" that some still had when Harada was leading useful idiots into buying his game.

Look at all other games that did not have associations with corruption and SJWs and they are all maintaining a stable community, while the big ones are either flopping or waning.

There is no place for black pills. Boycotts WORK and the industry is back into shapping up the way WE want it.

Anyone interested in the new Dragon Ball fighter: rally and contact Bamco directly and make sure that they bow to our demands. No FGC "pro" that shilled for failed games must be hired. Pressure Bamco with the results from the failed games from before and their association with said "pros". Don't let those idiots have any more money from the companies.

>>14059897

>Look at all other games that did not have associations with corruption and SJWs and they are all maintaining a stable community, while the big ones are either flopping or waning.

True.

>Boycotts WORK and the industry is back into shapping up the way WE want it.

We're not there yet. The Sjws, left, and right are pulling out more tricks to fuck with the industry and people. Look at the evil shit sjws and the left are resorting to with comic books now.

>>14059897

If you want to make a change, look up the contact info for Bamco's branches and post it here or on social media for people to use.

>>14059850

>>14059854

This.

Tekken 7 was only "well" received because of the spite that everyone had for Capcom. But Bamco is as bad as Capcom, and they can be brought down as Capcom was.

>>14059907

The time IS now.

Your example of comic books is perfect one. Comic books are failing, no matter what the SJWs push to the public.

Normalfags are more and more realising that "SJWs = bad product = won't buy" and are listening more to word of mouth than to any marketing. And a push for this direction will make even more of them avoid big name games.

Even Star Wars was taken down by mobilizing boycotts and alerting normalfags.

As soon as the normalfags' money stop going to the big companies, the ones that survive will have no other choice than back down from their push for cancerous marketing, season passes and paid shills.

>>14059917

That is why i suggested mobilizing like the Falcom fans, to find the contact info of the japanese Bamco and tell them directly, bypassing any of the western branches.

>>14059962

>That is why i suggested

Then make a thread about it and do it yourself. Give people a template or two for their emails/letters. When GG was in full swing I remember people emphasizing that letters should say "i don't know if i'll be making this purchase" rather than "i will never buy your products again" because at that point the company has not yet lost you. There may be some more advice to be found in the gamergate shitposting general, but I don't know.

I tried r/kappa but when I went there, all I found was porn and in-jokes that I didn't understand. The sub seemed pretty useless.

>tl;dr

Where do I go for the full details?

>pot-smoking

Is it legal in Southern California? When I watched his Portal 1 playthrough, he covered up the camera to take hits from his bong. He said he just "needed to smell some flowers". Whilst I don't remember specifically what paid comments (the text-to-speech thing) his fans were making, I do remember having the impression that nobody is under the illusion that Aris is sincerely smelling flowers. He covers it up and yet at the same time, barely tries to hide it.

>no better than Wong or Filipino Champ

I don't know much about these people or the inner-ongoings of the FGC. Can I get tl;drs on these people too?

Do we have any evidence of Aris bending the knee to Harada? I remember seeing Aris talk about how originally, TT2's practice/training mode wasn't all that different from Tekken 6's and how he badgered Harada into adding the "Record" function, thereby making the practise mode actually useful. That story always got me the impression that Aris was the people's champion, not afraid to "stick it to the man" and ensure our voices are heard.

Also, how strong his Mike Murray's presence in the FGC?

>>14059863

"Sexist".

Nothing wrong with that. Also, hitting on pair of tits is the right thing to do. Games are for Men. Tits that go to tournaments just to show themselves to men (as anything that takes away attention from women make them rage) ARE to be berated. Women are for sex and nothing else.

Calling a sexist (which is a good thing, for Men) a "manchild" exposes you as a cuck and or/male feminist.

>>14059863

Oh, I forgot something as well.

>Aris will suck Harada and Mike Murray's dicks for a living and weed every day

I thought Aris' income was dependent on his twitch-subscriptions as the guy literally doesn't have a job.

>>14059962

The right is as much our enemy as the left and sjws. We just need them to dismantle the social justice bullshit that's harmed everyone.

From his SCVI footage reviewing, right? I don't think Aris intentionally lies about himself, but he certainly stands to benefit from people thinking as highly of him as possible. I'm also curious as to how you think adding a feature to a training mode is "sticking it to the man."

>>14059705

Well, objectively speaking KoF is gonna take a lot longer to learn, you're gonna need a 3 character team to get properly going. While GG can get complex, you're going to be at an intermediate level much quicker. In the end, they're both great games so you should just pick whichever you think looks coolest.

>>14060033

>From his SCVI footage reviewing, right?

I don't know much about SCVI but I'm quite certain it's very recent. I don't know what video it was but I'm sure it was a fairly old one. I'm talking potentially pre-2017 even but yes, SCIV isn't even on the radar with regards to timeframe.

>I'm also curious as to how you think adding a feature to a training mode is "sticking it to the man."

Because the training mode was originally very bare-bones (it was similar to what Tekken 6 had) and Harada reportedly had to be badgered quite aggressively by Aris (who, at this time, was successful enough in Evo to have a name that carried weight and thus, was capable of rallying the community behind a cause and "rock the boat" for things which would've otherwise been accepted) to implement the changes. Aris, a man functioning as a representative of the Fighting Game Community stood up against Harada, a man functioning as a representative of the Namco corporation; persuading a reluctant Harada to have features added that would benefit the community.

The only way to argue that this isn't "sticking it to the man" is if you argue that Harada, as a Namco employer, would directly benefit from any changes that raise the game's quality and thus, bring in more money. The only issue with this argument is that it doesn't explain why companies like Capcom are both as money-hungry as they are and also so eager to shoot the quality of their games in the foot. There's clearly some kind of clash between quality and income.

>And his channel would fade into the background if it weren't for the occasional injections of popularity he gets from appearing behind commentary desks.

I can see that making sense. How many subs do you need on Twitch to have a liveable wage by the way? Like I said, I'm watching Aris' playthrough of Portal 1 and he says right at the end of the first stream that he had 288 active subscribers. I was really surprised by that number. The video was uploaded right at the tail-end of 2014 (three years from today, actually) and that seemed like such a low number. I look at Aris' stream now and I see he typically has an audience of 2000 although I don't know how many active subscribers he has as I don't think the figure is stated on his profile, I'm sure it's a lot more than a mere 300.
