Rev 2 to Strive = :sadcam:


But i actually enjoyed dbfz up until like season 4 (or whenever UI Goku was introduced) from there i had to let it go due to the nonsense auto combos/ui goku and android 21.

But i played it for a solid 2 years. If i can get that out of Tokon then i can't complain.

Roster is still the selling factor here. Show off Venom Gambit and Daredevil-etc. Complaints from people like us don't even matter lol.

I mean I'm still gonna play this and style on the nikkas here like I did when strive, dbzf, infinite...all them wack shyts. I'm byke on umvc3 heavy cuz we got a legit killer here still and Im trying to get back to being able to beat him like the old days :francis: game is still so fukking infuriating and so much fun :dead:

but yeah new age ASW has 0 clue how to balance their games. strive has been a dumpster fire for like 3 years now. we have a old school bi weekly with xrd n umvc, and I entered gg for the first time in ages. I was getting rolled up to start but a switch flipped and I was looking like my prime self with my bytch Millia, its also insane how well designed that game is compared to shti now too. lovely games.

But the unlocking assists just leaves such a bad taste in my mouth pause. Like...who asked for that? and you get it for goofy binary reasons like losing and throws? the fukk? itd be cooler if each char had like a mini quest to unlock them. ironman land 5 beams, storm use wind ten times etc.

but thats too much work for the retards they market games to now

I don't like stage transitions to begin with. If i got you in the corner. Stay ya ass in the corner. Don't transition screens just to reset to neutral.

Now you saying this is actually gonna be tied into assists?

Like what?

Man, I hate when people come and try to defend something that is clearly dumb. Unlocking assists is dumb as hell whether you thought this was gonna be like a MVC game or not. Like who wants to do that? It unnecessarily complicated.
Yeah, like the defenders of 1 and dones rank scum. So clearly dumb.

I'm still gon cop obviously because it plays like DBFZ which I loved. I feel like the meta of this game will be about not really tagging in assists and more focus on your best character but I'm gonna say fukk that. I'm gonna be tagging a lot just so I don't feel like I'm being cheated by the system they made.

Using all those characters for only assists reminds me of X-men vs Street Fighter on the playstation and omg that was the most disappointing game I have ever bought.

Yup. I'm sorry nikka but I don't like giving a nikka chance to adapt to my play style with ranked points on the line. Why make it harder on myself? You couldn't beat me the first time so oh well, peace out. You can be the honorable bytch nikka all you want, but I don't give a fukk. I get my points and move on.

the wall break shyt strive introduced is high key one of the worst mechanics in a fg ever imo

and to make it worse it didn't even "fix" the problem they wanted it to for resetting neutral as people would just super and come up with lockdown setups off of hkd anyway. Just an absolute failure of game design and it also homogenized the fukk out of everything


I'm really hoping this isn't more of the same but :francis:

breh look at this shyt




this the most untag tag fighter ever :dead:


they don't want you Tod'ing shyt :dead:

:francis: :francis: :francis:

I've been trying not to rant so soon because I always rant so soon but :camby:

This whole design is carrot on a stick

Ideally you wanna kill your opponent...but DONTCHA WANT ANOTHER ASSIST?:myman:" and that's what the game pushes on you as opposed to "If I'm optimal enough I won't even need another assist" The whole game's design is forcing you into scrambles for rewards. That's why I immediately thought of gems
