>Jax no longer looks like a 80s-90s military drill seargent nigger.

>He's literally just a fucking nigger now

Fuck's sake, Jax is supposed to be more Major Payne instead of 50 cent. I dont even care about niggers but this actually bothers me.

It's good to see characters that were introduced later in the Samsho series. It means this isn't just a reboot of the first game with it's limited roster.

>>16291959

Garou will probably be the next fighter SNK revives after KoF XV drops. Garou, Samurai Shodown, Metal Slug and Art of Fighting have been the series they been talking about the most for their revival plans

>>16292076

>busting jizz when they arent even showing anything

kids..

That Jax looks like Idris Elba. Not sure what's the point of making a classic outfit if it doesn't even look like the original. You can update the model and texture but you don't change the core design too much. I guess we haven't see all the outfits for the female characters but it doesn't look too good for MK11.

>>16292158

Oda already outright said Last Blade 3 is never gonna happen.

>idris elba

Try hut nigger straight from the congo.

where are the gaijins? i wish to expel them from this place, WITHU MY BRAAADE

So how do I git gud at fightan, with UNIST as my first fitan? Just go through tutorial and arcade mode?

Also Idris Elba is a mediocre actor.

>>16292214

play samsho and hit a dudes with fundamentals and big dmg pacific rim was the only movie i watch him seen him

>>16292270

i agree the OG jax is the best in series hands down

>>16292270

I thought he was the best followed by the 3d era deadly alliance jax who just looked like a fucking god beast.

>>16291435

>13 returning characters and 3 new ones

Is this speculation from the trailers or confirmed? Are those 13 the ones shown in the videos or there are still returning characters that haven't been shown?

>>16292800

>Is this speculation from the trailers or confirmed?

confirmed;

http://archive.vn/e4C3D#selection-1381.0-1389.44

>Are those 13 the ones shown in the videos or there are still returning characters that haven't been shown?

Charlotte, Earthquake, Galford, Genjuro, Hanzo, Haohmaru, Jubei, Kyoshiro, Nakoruru, Shiki, Tam Tam, Ukyo, and Yoshitora are returning plus shown in the new trailer

While the 3 completely new characters have yet to be revealed outside of a subtle teaser for two of them in one stage background.

>>16292214

>So how do I git gud at fightan, with UNIST as my first fitan?

Read the links in the OP. Once you feel like you understand the principle of a concept (say, 10-15 minutes of reading/video) play someone and try to apply it.

>>16292847

<Say there were no restrictions on which guest character you could include, who would you choose to add to the roster?

>Kuroki: “Oh man, that’s hard… Luke Skywalker.”

>Oda: “(Pulls up an image of a Mobile Suit from the Gundam franchise on his phone.)”

>Weatherford: “For me, I’d want TOEI Spider-Man. I love Spider-Man and I want something that’d fit this, so there’s actually a tokusatsu Spider-Man—like old school, giant robots—made back in the ’70s… None of these could ever actually be in because of licensing issues. (Laughs.)”

What legends.

>>16292859

>You be lucky if that cold blooded murderer will be DLC for SamSho.

I don't think we'll ever see any LB characters in SamSho since you know; all the characters except Genbu no Okina haven't been born yet

>>16293079

>SNK's own universe

the KoF universe isn't the same universe as the AoF/FF/SS/LB universe, so unless they go out of their way to tie Verse into the new SamSho it ain't the same Nakoruru

>>16293204

>it ain't the same Nakoruru

>Nakoruru's ending literally shows how she got from SamSho to KOF while making a stop at some pachinko timelines.

Fucking Mizuki is inside Verse as well. They probably won't tie because SamSho7 happens 3 years before Nakoruru dies and becomes a nature fairy thing.

any fighting games with characters that have vastly different capabilities and mechanics?

>>16293312

You talking along the lines of a roster where most if not all characters have a distinct mechanic? Guilty Gear, BB, and Killer Instinct come to mind.

>>16293312

>>16293326

Arcana Heart as well with all those combination of Arcanas.

>>16293326

I was thinking more along the lines of a game with very few universal mechanics. like maybe one character can air dash, another can parry, and another can air block but none of them can do them all.

>>16293362

I don't have the greatest knowledge of fighting games but maybe there's an older arcade title that does this? Most games I'm familiar with have varying degrees of universal mechanics and nothing that disparate.

>>16293362

The only thing I can think of is the groove system from CvS2, or something really dumb like SFIV remix.

>>16291612

>>16291596

>>16291622

if anyone cares i did manage to find a jap wiki with movelist of probably all characters, here it is

https://www28.atwiki.jp/gouketuji_senzokuyo/

>>16293312

vampire savior, one character hops, other dash some fly some teleport, also there are chars which have air dash and other don't.

a lot of anime fighters are like that too, to some extent unist too, in unist all characters have their on sub mechanic that they have to keep track of like there yuzuhira who have abcd slash thing.

one other game which is a platform fighter called rivals of aether, it also has like sub mechanics that is unique to all characters that is main part of their gameplan, but I haven't played it all that much tho.

the thing that satisfies your description the most is vampire savior, while everyone can airblock but all characters have their own dashes.

>>16293362

Fighting EX Layer does that somewhat;

The characters themselves mostly have universal mechanics with few exceptions but the gougi system throws in new mechanics like teleporting, short hops, super armor, guard cancelling, guard breaks, super jumps and more.

So you got 1 character with 15 possible mechanics and abilities.

>>16292178

They should at least fuse the two series together then. No sense having all those characters going to waste.

I don't see your bug bears with Jax. To me he looks a lot like the original actor and considering it's Netherrealm, that actually might be the case.

>>16295903

>To me he looks a lot like the original actor

You're fucking blind.

>>16295903

OG jax looked like a hero/drill sargeant, current jax looks like a gangster.

>>16296678

>>16296706

I don't know, the shape of the head looks very similar to >>16295220 him. The only area I think it differs is the eyes which are smaller.

Is there a fighting game where grapplers are really good?

>>16292931

Wasn't Garou 2 80% done when SNK went bankrupt?

>>16298071

KOF 98/02.

Who likes ZEKU previously of the Bushinryu?

>Op supporting tumblr kombat in the opening

OP don't even acknowledge that trash.

>>16299053

>Removing clothes from Charlotte

I'm glad they did that. I actually confused her for a dude like Vega most of the time.

>>16293362

The closest I can think of is Dissidia, where there are no basic attacks that everyone has like a kick or a bunch but instead get their own moves that can range from swing a sword, fireballs, and pumping the enemy full of lead

>>16299053

>Season Pass is in the works even though they haven't show the new characters

Oh well, I'm waiting for the PC version anyways so they might handle the DLC like they did for KoF XIV and SNKH

>>16299053

Isn't Potemkin pretty good in Accent Core +R? >>16299053

>Earthquake is one of the developer's favourite characters (guess we know why he beat Gen'an)

>"we are planning to make a season pass and we're working on the plans for that right now"

Hopefully this just means it'll be like KoFXIV where the game is injected with a bunch of new characters every eight months, but I really dislike hearing it at all.

>>16299656

Looks like he has one of those "somebody put a microchip in your brain" scars.

He probably asked for an off-switch. I'd like to have one myself, to be honest.

>>16292957

they'd have to redo a lot of her kit because she was pretty annoying to play against and I'd say there's a pretty good chance theyre gonna put in mina.

>>16304198

My only problem with the weapon catch cinematic is that it's too close to the camera. Just leave the camera in the normal position and it would be just a regular animation

I'd rather have AoF4 instead.

>>16292158

>>16292178

More specifically, story is "done" and there's nothing more to add to the series according to him. Shame, because LB is miles better than Garou.

>>16305490

>like "it looks too fluid" worried about setplay and vortex

Source? I want to hear this. There's no way a game with SS7's mechanics could possibly have a vortex.

>>16305490

>poor little pink boy

>>16306051

>RICED.com

>>16306034

Not him but here. First 30min are they talking about their impressions, expectations and concern about SamSho, the rest are Mortal Kombat 11, Power Rangers and other FGC shit.

Also they clearly don't know the mechanics and Ultra David with his "KOFXIII is the only SNK game that looks good" is a treat to Garou and Last Blade 2 fans.

>>16304198

SamSho7 is weird since I see a lot of good ideas like stripping down everything that was bad with IV but at the same time, some really questionable to weird ideas like Charlotte's design, this weapon catch, bodies disappearing after being sliced and they go flying in a weird way

>>16299656

I don't know if I should feel sorry for him. We'll only know when he steps down and we see the amount of shit WB and the team can pull up with the franchise. More than that, I wonder what are Tobias feelings with all this since he was the "idea" guy while Boon was the "code monkey" Granted, MK3 vanilla was a pretty bad idea, but at least UMK3 is still fun broken shit today still. And since Noob Saibot is back, he will still be remembered.

>>16306143

weapon catch/parry is the thing that made SamSho 5SP good, it meant even a low tier can flip a match on its head if he was good enough

everything else is visual design stuff i don't care about, i just hope Gaoh looks cool

>>16305490

>both James Chen and Ultra David unsure about the game with shit like "it looks too fluid" worried about setplay and vortex.

wut? the game has 3 different wakeup options alongside delayed wakeup

>>16304198

oh, charlotte did an unarmed weapon catch, it's the way they balanced out the mechanic in 5SP.

if you lose your weapon, one of the ways you can bounce back is weapon catching yourself with a weapon disarm + hard knockdown

>>16306542

People reported there was no delayed wakeup. You can techroll though.

And I'm complaing about how the weapon catch is presented not its existence. But being now in a simple qcf motion instead of the old d,db,f motion will probably make deflects and catches much more common since the window looks so big.

>>16306573

>no delayed wakeup

ah, my bad

>But being now in a simple qcf motion instead of the old d,db,f motion will probably make deflects and catches much more common since the window looks so big.

I doubt it, the window in 5SP was generous and wasn't hard to do if you had a fightstick, in fact you could buffer it easily after everything. It'll be balanced out by the fact that they can AB your face for big damage on whiff.

>>16306143

>I don't know if I should feel sorry for him.

You should. Mortal Kombat ended up in WB's hands through no fault of Boon. Mortal Kombat always sold gang busters. Midway fucked up by thinking they could make other stuff than MK and wasted MK's profits.

Just put yourself in Boon's shoes he has to watch as suits and consumer think tanks fuck with his creation.

>>16307454

I'm trying to think of what utterly destroyed midway. Shaolin monks was awesome, the mainline MK games were lauded, even Rampage Total Destruction was enjoyed by the fans, but what else where they doing that put them in such a financial hole? Was it sports and (((EA))) having the monopoly made it so that they were never bought? Was it some shitty shooters? I'm super curious…

PAX panel started. Not much new stuff besides showing all the 13 announced characters artwork

>>16308839

For SamSho7 I might add

>>16308911

>>16308908

They said she has something "special" when she's disarmed.

But they said fuckall about the netcode so I already expect the usual underwhelming stuff from SNK.

>>16293362

I would say Arcana Heart because the mechanics can come from the arcana themselves. Like push guard, super armor, speed boost, slow down, time stop, triple jump, teleporting, regen, HP absorption, poison, mimicry, magnetism, and running all come from different arcana. You can use any of them with any character.

>>16308911

>deliciously brown carpenter muscle mommy

>>16308911

This racist game was long overdue some diversity.

>>16309398

> no SamSho VI

do they really regret that entry in the series? or is there a different reason?

>>16309398

>character packs

>not season pass

That's a good sign.

>>16309457

It's because VI is on Atomiswave hardware not Neo Geo. Samurai Shodown VI was one of the first games SNK added to the PS4's PS2 lineup so they're not outright ignoring it. I want Andrew to be playable again god dammit

>>16309658

>But yeah, everyone looks "stocky". Might work on stance but when yout get the models some people will be put off.

It was the same problem SFIV had. I recall always being puzzled that Dee Jay looked fine in fights, but had weird alien arms whenever he went through his victory animation. It's pretty crazy how much difference a pose like that can make.

>>16309398

Finally, took their sweet time to finally offer us a collection, shame about SamSho VI.

>Creator decides to respectfully end franchise instead of hollowing it out for sheckels.

And now I like this game even more.The sound effects, the music, some of the stages. The fights between the characters felt personal instead of being a show for spectators.

Arika's April Fools video is up. Area is is delayed until June or July and the April Fools joke is a free FEXL mobile game.

>>16310773

>>16310786

Just looks like a lazy resizing job to get everybody in the picture together..

>>16314047

I'd believe they would do a mobile game. They did and april fools FEXL game two years before one actually came out so its not out of the realm of possibility.

>>16314362

I think it looks great, but it sounds old because they really did re-use voice lines from past games for most of the cast.

>>16310711

Destroy all humans and Second Sight were superior games, both as actual games and both as "fuck around with psi powers" simulators.

Second Sight is neat for the first few levels, but the shooting is complete and utter ass and the powers that aren't telekinesis are not that fun to use and so is the fact that you have a fairly limited psy bar.

>>16314961

>Second Sight is neat for the first few levels

What I meant here was Psy Ops.

>>16319195

Charlotte

until I get Rimururu or Mizuki

>>16310711

Its actually does not matter if we think its bad or good stuff like this tanked and Midway kept trying to make new IPs when people just wanted more fucking Mortal Kombat. Not understanding supply and demand killed Midway.

The Warner Bros run NRS with Muslim Kombat 11 seems to not understand supply and demand either. When MK11 under performs and it will (people underestimate how much the hot female ninjas helped sell the game in the past) WB will blame NRS when the fault most likely lies with them.

>>16319195

Sounds like Tam Tam is my guy.

>>16319195

Iroha, i'm not touching this game until she gets announced, even as DLC, and seeing how much merchandise and shitty mobage she sold back in her day SNK would be stupid not to include her.

>>16319398

It would be pants on head retarded to release a KOF without Mai but look what they did twice in a row? Also advertise a new KOF without Kyo and Iori but only with some clones of the first one having the originals secret characters in the arcade version.

>>16319195

I completely agree. I mean, a couple of rocks would be fine, matches the "earth" portion of the elements, but we have a little bit of fire, a split second of water, a single move of air, some ice, and then shitloads more rocks and Goro's ground pound. I like her Vine attacks, especially the one where she grabs them, then lights them on fire, but I wanna see her do something like douse the opponent in spores and have a fucking tree grow out of them with a cute little flower blooming out of their nose or something

>>16321047

What was the point of crushing Jade with rocks or even stepping on her for that matter if Cetrion was just going to nuke her from orbit anyway?

>>16321439

I think the blame is mostly on the hysteria over Shueisha trying to claim copyrights on DBFZ tournaments back in January. Even now you still sometimes see people who didn't keep up with the situation talking about how all these DBFZ tournaments are allegedly being cancelled, even though it turned out to be a whole load of nothing aside from getting dropped from AnimEVO.

DBFZ was losing a bit of steam in the previous patch since the meta was getting pretty stale, but reception to the new patch has generally been pretty positive. I know more than a few people didn't tune in to watch it at NorCal Regionals since it was running the previous patch. A tournament running the new patch happened on the same day and from what I saw of it it had a fair bit more character variety than NCR.

If someone was going to run pirated versions of fighting games on the same machine/PC where they have legitimate copies for online play will there be any issues? I want to get a copy of SFV with all the DLC unlocked for local play. Don't want to dump more money into a game I rarely play now for characters and costumes. I know this probably sounds retarded but I was worried if save files or something else would overlap and cause issues if I ever did go online again in the future.

Speaking of SFV: is it possible to play the pirated version online with other people that have it or is in offline only? Anyone replicate the CFN network yet? Anyone made any modifications to the same itself to make it less crap? I know SFIV had a good modding community but I know nothing about SFV as I haven't touched it in about two years now.

Extending on the above: If someone took the time to make a standard install/repack for games that ran on PC and could somehow get the online portions of them working like fightcade would any of you guys use them? I've thought about doing repacks for PC fighting games for a couple of years now but I didn't know if anyone would ever download/play them. It'd be nice to have something like fightcade for games that have come out in the last few years that are otherwise dead.

I mainly want to make them for use in a cabinet I'm building for myself but if other people can use them I'd be willing to share. I've noticed that fighting games rarely get updated by people doing repacks. Right now to install SFV's pirated version you have to install the base game then install three or four patches to get it current.

The only cool thing about Geras is the very few times where he can rewind himself either in animation or through his rewind special move. The other 90% of the time, he's just a big guy who throws various sand things. A teleport like all the others, and sand bombs. Like INJ2 Green Lantern's bombs, and now Ceturion's rock bombs. It's like NRS just has 6 special moves and they can't actually make them different in either way, just change how they look.

Geras can alter the in-game clock, which is pretty interesting, but he needs some more time manipulation and less sand manipulation. Why is his Fatalities just being a strong guy? Turn them into a baby and then kidnap and raise them. Turn them into an old person and push them over, unable to contact their LifeAlert. Something other than big man punch.

>>16321358

Geras has literally one thing going for him. He's a literal sand nigger. The most ironic thing that NRS brought to the table with this new character is the inside joke.

>>16321085

>I know not a lot of people played Killer Instinct, but at least in that game every character had a few mechanics that made them stand out. This just feels like a checklist character.

And this is something I've pointed out many times about MK11 that NRS fanboys can't wrap their heads around. I pointed out that Jacqui Briggs shared some of the same move sets as Johnny Cage (the retarded looking side speed kick that she does is almost a carbon copy of Johnny's rush down side kick), and the same thing could be said about Johnny Cage's stunt devil being a carbon copy clone of Noob Saibot's shadow clone tackle. Only NRS drones will argue that they are different while in reality it is just copy repasted skins for anyone who isn't a literal fucking retard trying to shill for this game.

Excuse my english guys its not great.

My Sanwa OBSF buttons have been letting me down lately, so I just ordered some Gamer Finger HBSF buttons to try out. Anyone else using them? What Cherry MX switch do you prefer to use? My order has Silver but I can easily and cheaply switch them to Blues or something later.

>>16322513

>I can not see MK11 doing well in sales

It will sell well. All MK games sell well because they have enormous casual audiences who think the cinematic story modes are cool.

>>16322526

I recently replaced Sanwa OBSF buttons with Gamerfingers to accommodate blue Cherry microswitches. I like them a lot, personally. Embed related is a good video guide.

>which do you prefer?

I wanted my arcade stick to sound and feel like a mechanical keyboard, so I was torn between the blues and browns for their construction (need to push down all the way, compared to Sanwa's default switches, which will trigger with a feather touch).

>different types of Cherry switch

It's really up to personal preference. I absolutely needed a switch that wouldn't trigger unless I pushed it down all the way, but some people prefer having smoother action (which the silver switches do well) or quieter switches (which I believe the reds also do well; not completely sure since I only examined the blues and browns).

One thing which I dislike about the Gamefinger buttons is that there are some small issues owing to their cheap Taiwanese manufacturing. The buttons themselves are "push in" style - as opposed to the OBSF "lock in" style - so you have the mount, which has the microswitch just sitting in a hole in the bottom, and the pushbutton, which is pushed onto the top X of the microswitch like a piece of Lego. I accidentally installed one the wrong way and destroyed the microswitch because the only way to put them in is to apply way more force than a small piece of plastic/metal can withstand. Getting them out with a screwdriver (which I had to do once I realized the pushbuttons are meant to be oriented north/south, but don't have an interlock to prevent you from orienting them west/east) is equally nerve-wracking because you're literally pushing up on the bottom of the switch instead of prying them out like an OBSF button.

Every Gamerfinger button is built to accommodate a "washer and screw" system for mounting it on the stick, as opposed to the "push and click" system most other buttons use. This means two things:

>if you order a push-and-click button, it may be ever so slightly too small for the hole in the arcade stick, which means you can rotate it with enough force

>if you order washer buttons, they may be too close together for the washers to fit properly

They're good buttons for what I want, but I wouldn't recommend them to everyone due to the high price point and other technical issues.

>>16322513

>I can not see MK11 doing well in sales or tournaments.

MK always sells well, it's the FIFA of fighting games where quality doesn't matter to the mass of casuals that build the majority of the sales.

It will follow the same pattern all the other NRS games went; One big launch tourney, then tourney entrants dwindle only getting support because of NRS/WB keeping it afloat for advertising reasons.

>>16323017

Those filters don't.

>>16322901

>MK always sells well, it's the FIFA of fighting games where quality doesn't matter to the mass of casuals that build the majority of the sales

I'm not so sure this time around anons. They have already pissed off the competitive fighting scene by limiting variations and it's 4th place at the next fighting tournament, while Tekken and SFV is shitting all over it. It doesn't matter if it appeals to the massive casual normalfag audience when some of the sponsored youtubers that were shilling for the game were getting second thoughts about it (calling out their shitty animations and the lack of quality). If it doesn't look visually appealing to the normalfags, which it doesn't since everything is so drastically gray and shitty looking then it might sell copies on launch but will die quickly. Alot of the normalfags are pissed that Milenna and Rain won't be in the main roster which many fans were begging for NRS to get in the game. Word will spread quickly with the normalfags if the game is a dumpster fire worthy of the $5 bin.

>>16322021

>reverse of the dude who's stand turned people younger

That exists in JoJo as well. The stand is called The Grateful Dead and it makes people older but cold air or ice reverts the effect.

>>16323367

>MK sells well to casuals, which is why it sells millions of copies

<but they pissed off the competitive scene! casuals don't matter!

You're joking, right? I admit NRS milks its competitive players harder than SFV and T7, but you'd crazy to think they account for more than a small slice of the game's sales and revenue.

Do you not recall what happened when SFV ignored casuals at launch? It flopped.

>>16323383

>they fucked tam-tam

He literally looks almost identical.

>>16323484

Yes I know that. I think you completely missed the point. The game itself doesn't have alot of casual appeal going for it (Dull colors, forgettable new characters, shit tier return characters like Jacqui Briggs that could have been replaced by better choices, etc.) besides the the franchise name slapped onto it. If the competitive scene cannot get into the game, then it's going to trickle down to the core audience with the money and possible sponsors. Alot of casuals watch the competitive scene and if the competitive scene is absolute shit, then it's going to hurt sales in the long run. On top of that I think NRS is going to pull some major jewish bullshit (adding Mileena and Rain as DLC instead of secret unlockables) and it's going to leave an negative impression. I get the sense that Ed Boon wants to abandon ship and leave the contract with WBS, since he lost control of the franchise.

>>16323948

>i had to add tonnes of unnecessary words and unfunny jokes

>but i couldn't add any new characters

Believe me, you didn't have to "fix" it.

The Steve description is funny.

Okay, can anyone who is playing UNIST explain anything to me about how this fucking 7-14 jump attack with teching tutorial is supposed to work? I have found 3 explanations online, and all are equally nonsensical to me (one says to enter the entire option select during the 2a blockstun which completely fucking nullifies what I understand the point of an OS to be, one is a 4 minute video which just says over and over again, "The timing is hard," and one says, "Do it faster").

I eventually got through it by setting the speed to 30% and entering the OS every time the AI tried to throw, but I'd prefer if I at least understood the concept of how this is supposed to be executed even if I can't actually do it.

>>16323958

It actually doesn't, since the leaks had Shang Tsung as an unlockable originally but he's going to be the first DLC character. It also doesn't confirm if Shinnok and Mileena are going to be unlockables since the leaked achievement lists nothing about Shinnok or Mileena being in the game files as unlockables.

On Test Your Might and other sites I see mixed feelings about Centrion. I personally think she doesnt fit Mortal Kombat at all, and she has the characteristics of a scrapped Injustice 2 character with that ridiculous space fatality which no other character does in the franchise. The same ones praising the new character are the same NRS circle jerking fan boys who will blindly praise whatever shit NRS decides to spew all over them. With all of the recent news of the locked variations for competitive and other recent bullshit it killed alot of hype that MK11 was supposed to bring to the table. normalfag cucks will still probably buy it but I think it's going to die a pretty quick death for long term interests.

>>16324017

Why don't other fighting games do this kind of shit? I remember having tons of fun going through SC2's Weapon Master mode and getting to play with lots of weird rules that unfortunately were never an option in the versus mode with friends. Now Tekken 7 and SoulCalibur 6 have fuck all to unlock in the or do in the single player modes.

Is SNK better about this and I should just abandon 3D fighters? Do they have any games that have a fighting mode and then something like a beat-em up adventure mode?

>>16324364

<Do you have previous experience with 2D fighting games?

A few. I'm pretty sure the only relevant ones to this would be GG X2, GG Xrd, and Blazblue. But I've also played some Street Fighter/Mortal Kombat games. I wasn't great at them or anything, but I've put quite a few hours into all of them.

<Do you know what a fuzzy jump is?

I know a fuzzy guard is when you switch between standing and crouching guards based on the incoming attack, so I'd guess a fuzzy jump is either guarding or jumping based on the incoming attack?

<Do you know what a fuzzy mash is?

For that one, though, I don't have a clue.

I was able to get through all of the other teching tutorials mostly fine. The backdash took a while, but I was eventually able to get it at full speed. This jumping one is the only one I simply cannot seem, no matter what I do, to get the right input or timing on. I have no idea exactly when I'm supposed to start inputting the jump.

>>16322021

It's like The Grateful Dead in grenade form.

Actually it was an hour glass she throws. She speeds time up on you by breaking an hour glass on your skull. That actually sounds more like a stand than a grenade now that I think about it.

>>16322559

I don't think "smoothness" is really a concern for me, I just want buttons that actually send a signal when I press them, and my Sanwa buttons sometimes don't.

>>16322882

For me I want them to activate as soon as possible, so Silver seems like it should be a good fit. Bottoming out the Sanwa buttons and getting absolutely nothing is a one way ticket to rageville. Unacceptable.

>>16325177

>Sadly, NRS games has technically the best of both worlds of the genre: deep and variety on single player content, serviceable to really good online experience and great training modes with lots of information to competitive players constantly hearing the community. Too bad it was all perverted like some kind of dystopian future.

What the fuck are you talking about? MK:X was a PC port nightmare on release and ALOT of people were upset by it. Angryjoe, Gaming Sins, etc were calling out NRS on micro transactions that WB was trying to capitalize on. While there is no confirmation on loot boxes for MK11, now they are contemplating on "DLC movesets" possible for each character in the game while they are limiting preset variations for online competitive play. Also, "Augments" being a thing in casual is gonna kill it for many folks.

Many people are upset (go look at Test Your Might) because NRS is being completely fucking retarded with their pr department shilling confusing information to their fan base. normalfags aren't going to fall for it if the game looks like complete eye sore dog shit. We hear from Ed Boon that there will be secret characters, while just recently we are told that we will get 25 characters on launch and the final game will have "30ish". We were told that this will be a "fan service game" while we got shit tier characters like Jacqui Briggs which normalfags dont give two fucks about. Now NRS is feeding disinformation to their customer base three weeks before launch. So tell me, how is Mortal Kombat 11 going to do well again?

>>16324406

>Why don't other fighting games do this kind of shit?

Castlevania: Judgement had a game mode where you basically play through a dungeon room by room with each room having enemies and variable conditions like status effects, shortened timers, or specific win conditions. The game also had a couple of generic mobs and "boss" monsters to fit in with the castlevania lore like skeletons, fishmen, and some kind of troll/ogre. It wasn't a great game but I did enjoy that mode a lot.

>>16325499

Yes, MKX PC port at release was a mess but they managed to hire another company to fix their shit and deliver a serviceable port that runs smoother and with lower requirements than KOFXIV and other games using UE4 bloated mess. And as far as I know, besides Denuvo, there wasn't anything wrong with Injustice 2 port but since the DRM was a thing, I didn't bother so correct me if I'm wrong.

>While there is no confirmation on loot boxes for MK11

That's what Boon said at the Noob/Shang Tsung event: http://archive.is/i0SI7 But yeah, I'm pretty sure they will sell shit like Easy Fatalities again and probably custom moves for casuals along with new parts for customization. But the thing is, they will only sell that kind of stuff because there are people willing to pay for it.

>"Augments" being a thing in casual is gonna kill it for many folks.

They're "off" by default and need to be set by both players online to be activated. >>16324017

>So tell me, how is Mortal Kombat 11 going to do well again?

I just don't see all these vocal complains hurting the preorders and therefore, actual sales. Right before the beta, there was a flash sale at the brazilian Amazon store of the Premium Edition with beta codes of the game with a discount making the price a little less than the regular version of the game Still absurd price compared to other countries to see how desperate people are. As soon as it went live, it was all over social media and even some friends went crazy about it buying said version. In a matter of hours it was out of stock. And the only new facts besides Cetrion, were feedback from the beta but every negative thing like balancing and stuff people shrugged with "aw man, it's just a beta, they'll sure fix this by release".

So yeah, to me, it'll need a royal fuck up like Mileena design being atrocious in a limited time overpriced DLC because even after MKX people are excited about the story mode and we didn't even get a glimpse of said modes announced and explained in that Game Informer issue.

Other than one evo game, they're all 3D.

>>16326251

>Is sprite work that hard?

More like expensive. Kuroki, SNK lead artist said that there's no "new blood" in 2D spritework and thus, with fewer people available, it becomes more expensive to do such things in large projects.

>Couldn't they get some anime studio is help with that?

The only instance I know of something like that is Trigger doing supervision on the Kill la Kill arena game and that one is 3D as well

>>16326444

It'll be 11:00AM JST They announced that stream last week. But I think it'll be a very japanese event with the bands and VAs listed with minor showing of the game from Momochi and Chocoblanka so I guess they'll just show character art from the 3 characters at most.

Nigger, how many times are we gonna go through with this? Spritework is too costly and takes to long to do unless you cut a lot of corners. Look at KoF XII;

Each character took 6.5 months to make and at an average cost of $200,000 per character (and that was with outsourcing to Chinese/Korean animation studios). What did that lead KoF XII and XIII with? A tiny ass roster full of headswaps and gutted movesets.

>>16326500

Then how did games get made at all in the past before massive overblown budgets were commonplace?

>>16326556

Because they weren't making HD quality spirtes with 500 to 1000 frames per character also arcades were alive and a big source of fighting game devs income.

Seems like screenshots of Nakoruru and Charlotte for the Samurai Showdown game is lacking and that makes me sad.
