Also only two monsters left to reveal on the wiki.

Since most of the monsters are out, do you guys like any of these desines at all?

>>187491
I like most of them beyond the initial roster, honestly.

Still, I feel CKC is a bit overly ambitious as a full franchise crowd-funded by amateurs, but I will reserve judgement until they actually release something. There are good ideas here, but big dreams and concept work do not a good game make.

Def Best Ending

>>187760
How much more retarded will the story get I wonder?

It looked like it was going to be passable in the game where they basically "rebooted" the series, trim away at all the cancerous growths in the plot that had accumulated after so many games (which seems like a valid plan) but then in about the final quarter of the game it took a dive into total MK retardation.

Fatalities are kind of boring me now after all these years, also the the X-ray attacks. It might be the original gimmick the series had going for it but the massive gore for the sake of gore and brutality of being explicitly stabbed through the eyeballs and being unaffected the rest of the match just hold little appeal anymore

>>187760
FUCKING SO ON BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOARD!!!

>We killed off so many characters what do we do?
>Bring out the MK4 Roaster?
>Sure, let's have a look at them now!
>.....
>MKX ALL NEW CHARACTERS!!!!

I knew they'd have to, MK4 stays buried for everything not Shinnok related.

>>187762
I'm much the same way; although I never liked MKs controls or combo system. It just feels clunky and stiff and from the recent gameplay reveal last night it doesn't look like that's changed.
They've added in the interactive environment gimmick Injustice had that almost nobody likes though so there's that.

You can even pick your special moves which is pretty cool, but I'm willing to bet the options will be very limited and it'll only be a matter of time until someone finds some god-tier combination provided the character isn't gimped. Also I highly doubt it'll be tourney legal.

Him being a gigantic whiney faggot aside he does make some good points. Japanese/ Nintendo devs (for the most part) tend to be extremely headstrong and unwilling to really listen to people. That said, Apparently at the best Buy events and E3, people have been taking notes, so maybe Nintendo's finally starting to get it.

Also; the game is 4 months away from launching. That's barely enough time to do anything of substance before submitting the final build.

I don't get him being Whiny. He sounded perfectly composed in his criticism of the game.

And I mean really "It's not well balanced it's going to be like Brawl" isn't something we should be mindbogglingly blown about. It's not like he's saying the game's got horrible game-crashing bugs or has lied about its roster or anything.

It's Smash! and it sounds like he's saying it has the problems associated with Smash. Nintendo aren't some infallible gods who're going to constantly correct their mistakes.

They fucked up a bit with Brawl in terms of competitive play and they're not succeeding with U either. Accept that and move on. Or just don't buy smash if you're THAT invested in it being super good at competitive play.

Come on Nintendo or Disney; eat hem up before EA does!

>>188069
Come on Nintendo, bring the Blue Bomber under the banner fully.

Man, if Nintendo acquired Capcom...I can hardly imagine it to be honest.
A big 3rd party suddenly forced to one side. Classic properties getting new life. Much less nickel and dime DLC. The chaotic response from the gamer community.
It would be incredible.

>Nintendo acquiring Capcom and therefore Street Fighter

I wonder how the FGC would react.

I don't know how much money Nintendo has stashed away in their vaults, but I imagine purchasing enough stock to own Capcom would cost a fortune. If Capcom were to just close their doors, would the individual IPs be auctioned off, like what happened with THQ?

SHIN!DANTE AND BAYO TEAM UPS

>>188074
>I wonder how the FGC would react.
Bitchtears and nerd rage if the comments are anything to go by. Honestly I hope none of the "big three" buy them because console exclusives are retarded and Capcom at least has the decency to release most of their fighters for PC.
Buying Capcom would probably be a huge boon for Nintendo; but it would fuck over just about everyone else.

This Capcom talk reminds me when everyone was so damn sure Nintendo would buy Atlus, and the suggestion of Sega-Sammy was laughed at. Nintendo didn't even want to pay for the rest of Rare, I doubt they'll buy Capcom on a whim.

Somewhat related: Back in 2005, there were talks of Konami and Capcom merging.

http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=newsarchive&sid=a31Bxym5Bqtc

Why would Nintendo ever buy Atlus? As far as I know the two of them haven't had as close a working relationship (if they even have one) as they have had with Capcom in the past.

No one is going to buy Capcom. Not right now. Maybe when they finish bankrupting themselves a few companies will scoop up their IPs with maybe Nintendo grabbing Megaman, but that's as far as it'll go.

>>188083
Speculation back then was driven by "look at all these 3DS games Atlus is making." Same goes for Persona 5 being a 3DS exclusive.

CAPCOM IS FOR SALE! Games Coul…

The thought of Amazon buying Capcom never crossed my mind. I think that may be too much for Amazon, but I never thought they would buy a game developer like Double Helix just to support Amazon Fire TV. The unannounced PS4 game by Ono signaling the Street Fighter series being exclusive to Sony is jumping the gun, but the thought of Sony and Nintendo sharing Capcom properties isn't so bad. Street Fighter, Devil May Cry, and Resident Evil goes to PlayStation, while Mega Man goes to Nintendo. Heck, the possibility of Microsoft buying the Dead Rising series is strong too.

I don't know how I would feel if Disney bought Capcom. So tired of Disney buying everything, but it would give us more Capcom vs. Marvel games and Disney cartoon games like DuckTales. It would also give them them more boy-driven franchise they desperately crave. However, I don't know how much Disney values the video game market. They seem content with only pushing the Disney Infinity line.

>>188086

My understanding is that Amazon and Microsoft couldn't buy Capcom outright, because Japanese laws forbid the sale of Japanese companies to foreign ones.

>>188093
so Sony or Nintendo as Front Runners in this. Still say Nintendo has the edge,

>>188122
>I don't even know how the life meter works. I died and killed others, but I have no idea what triggered it.

The biggest reason the game fails to capture the chaos of Smash Bros. is the same thing that sets it apart from Smash Bros.: The way KOs are scored. Players damage each other to score AP orbs to build meter. Building enough meter allows the player to one of three levels of super moves, which are the only way to score KOS. In SuperBot's attempt to set the game apart from Smash Bros., it ends up worse. If your super attack misses, all that buildup of meter was for nothing. I think the game would have been better off aping Power Stone instead of Smash Bros.

As for Abe and Dart not appearing on the roster, development on them was canned specifically due to poor sales of previous DLC. I don't recall anyone clamoring or even wanting for Isaac Clarke and Zeus to join the roster.

>>188200
>Also the characters blend into the backgrounds which Nintendo somehow manages to avoid for most Smash characters and stages.
Might it have something to do with the designs of the characters themselves?

Friday Night Fisticuffs - The …

>>188241
>>188200

I think most Smash stages have a background that is primarily a certain color, though that color may change on some stages (battlefield going from day to night, for example). From what I remember in All Stars a lot of the stages were cluttered when it came to colors and foreground/background detail, though I could be wrong since it's been a long time. Coloring a stage like Smash does helps characters 'pop' against the backdrop. In addition, most Smash stages are easy on the eyes, which makes following characters a lot easier.

And by easy on the eyes I don't just mean that they're pretty. Halberd was a stage from Brawl that wasn't nice to look at imo because everything being some muddy shade of red puts a bit of strain on the eyes. In contrast there are lots of stages that are different shades of blue, which are easy to look at. I have the feeling All Stars doesn't really take this into consideration, but like I said it's been a while, so someone more well versed in the game can weigh in on if that's true or not.

Nintendo decided to sponsor EVO this year.

Last year, they tried to shut down the Smash Bros. Melee EVO tourney altogether.

Hell of a turnaround.

>>188718
Hopefully they've realized that burning their own fans and trying to hold an iron grip is not going to help them improve sales. They also recently did a third reversal (they were indifferent about sharing before they were against it) about youtube videos, now setting up an affiliate program with those who create content using their IP: http://www.polygon.com/2014/5/27/5754560/nintendo-youtube-affiliate-program

I hope this represents an overall paradigm shift from Nintendo wisening up for real as opposed to them just taking the trial-and-error approach and reversing because of the backlash.

>>188726
Are they really getting backlash from this?

>>188726
You're hoping that they stop experimenting and adapting?
I don't support that at all.

Gals Fighters (Queen of Fighters)

No I'm hoping that it represents a true change in perspective, and that they're actually learning from their mistakes and will make the right call from the getgo elsewhere, rather than only reversing the things they knew people got mad at them for, and continuing to make the same kind of boneheaded decisions in other areas until someone explicitly calls them on their shit, rinse, and repeat.

I liked this.

>>188780
>No but get though. Just get good.

Maybe we need to change this mentality?

>>188781

The issue of "Git Gud" is a fascinating one to me.

Cause it's gotten to a point where the question becomes: when is a game badly designed and when is a game just testing you?

There are plenty of old school games that're hard. Hell they're fucking hard! Hard as fossilized dung. But we don't just appreciate them for that difficulty, in fact in some instances the difficulty is totally arbitrarily high. Nobody says "git gud" when you play Battle Toads even though in terms of fairness it's about on the same league as say Dark Souls.

And in Wonderful 101 there are missions that require you to perform random new mechanics and playstyles on the fly and getting them 100% perfect is a fucking nightmare because of this. But does that make that a bad game or those particular elements flawed? Well...

Basically the way I see it is this: if a game wants you to Git Gud it should make the process of Gittin' Gud as intuitive and quick as possible. Wonderful 101 I'd argue is WAY BETTER at letting you Git Gud than Bayonetta because you can't retry missions or fights in Bayonetta, you literally need to quit the game then hit continue to do so and it sucks. Gittin' Gud is already meant to be a trial and error process and learning enemy patterns so making the process of learning and being exposed to those patterns more tedious and time consuming is an awful stance to take because you're already making things difficult, making things TEDIOUS on top of that is just going to shoot you in the foot.

Basically here's what I think: It's not the fact that old games were HARD that people hate, but that they started you back at the start of the level and told you "do it all over again". That feeling that you basically lost all of your lives and are kicked back to the start screen with no level select is much MUCH worse than simply having enemies with aggressive or difficult patterns.

Holy Fuck I just realized that EVO was happening right this second. What the fuck is wrong with me?

Skullgirls is suffering. I thought you knew that.

Fuck this idiot and everyone who agrees with his ignorant opinion. According to him, people who enjoy skill-based games are boring "control-freaks". According to him, only random mechanics can lead to fun. That attitude is toxic and narrow-minded and shitheads like him are one of the reasons competitive players attack casuals.

Super Smash Bros. for 3DS/Wii …

Beats Chrom/Lucina. Why'd they have to use the mediocre David Vincent voice though?

I guess that explains why Marth's design is so wildly different and with the yellow trim.

So is Chrom actually in the game or is he going to be DS only or what?

>>188833
Robin's Final Smash is to Dual Strike with Chrom.

>>188833
He's part of Robin's Final Smash. There are no system-exclusive characters, only system-exclusive stages.

>>188833
Read the website
Pay attention to the video

The only ambiguous reveal is if Lucina is a new character or if she's just a high profile alt skin for Marth.

Mortal Kombat X: Raiden Reveal & Fatality

>>188839
that was the least hype character reveal and exhibition I'd ever seen. It's like Boon realized he promised a reveal at EVO, but totally forgot and locked n intern in a room for a few hours before his flight and this is what was produced.

"Lightning traps" was barely shown and the orbs where already shown as part of another moveset. Not to mention Raiden spends most of the video getting his shit pushed in.

Good to see Cap. Falcon again, thought I'm still waiting for a Mr. Game & Watch confirmation.
Even if he appeared on the Pac-Man trailers, I don't take that as a confirmation.

>>188839
Cool!

>>188831
Hah!

They picked the wrong design for Girl Robin and I'd rather have, say, Lyn, than a character that is at once a second Awakening character and a second Marth but oh well. Or swap her for Mic or Hector if you don't want another FE character with a sword.

>>188848
>Micaiah
Fuck no there's like nothing good about her. Plus anything she could've done so can Robin.

>>188848
At least there's justification for Lucina being a Marth clone.

>>188852
Justification doesn't mean clones should be welcome additions.
The way things look from the few seconds of gameplay she had, she'll be more of a Marth clone than Roy.

It's not even a Ken and Ryu situation like with those two. It's like Marth is there and Lucinia is Marth after a balance update or something.

>>188851
Well Robin is a mix of magic and melee so it was just a suggestion for a different style protag. But then I've never hated Mic as much as most did. Still would rather have Lyn though obviously, cause she'll always be the coolest one.

Or they could have used one of the twins and done a Jojo's ASB thing where they come in on their horses. But that would require someone to care about the twins.

>>188862
Though you've got to admit, a fighter who's weapons expire after being used enough time is the most fire emblem thing.

Am I the only one who doesn't care how Lucina's face looks? Robin and all the other Fire Emblem characters look great, but Lucina's eyes seem a little too angry. She ought to resemble the Kozaki art a little more.

>>188867
It sounds like you're the only one who does care how her face looks. I think she looks more determined than angry.

>>188860
Fuck, that's disappointing as hell. They could've at least tried to make her moveset a little different by incorporating spear attacks since she can use those as a Great lord. That said MU is still rad as hell though.

http://mynintendonews.com/2014/07/15/full-smash-bros-character-roster-3ds-stages-will-be-reportedly-revealed-in-next-months-corocoro/
Huh. Probably nothing particularly mindblowing though.

>>188867
She looks OK up close. If anything her problem is the lack of emotion more than anything else.

>>188882

Yeah, they said they're going to give her palettes that reference robots and such, so the first one revealed being a Gundam makes sense.

>>188885
Well of course she'll have mostly robot reference palettes. The problem I see though is that a lot of classic anime robots use red, blue, and white and they already gave Robocop to Big Band.

>>188886

Hmmm.

...Megas XLR?

Anyone have the color patterns they'd need for that? a good Character model.

>>188890
Anime robots.
Since the color team tends to ignore western properties in favor of animu whenever possible.

Megas though you'd need the flam pattern to really nail it which they just can't do.

Is the Super Smash Bros. Roste…

Is the concept of hidden characters outdated because it "screws with the tournament scene" as this guy puts it? I think the endeavor to unlock them adds to a game's longevity.

>>188893
Since there ARE people that play fighting games alone, they of course need more things to do besides fight the computer over and over. So yeah, it does add to the longevity. Especially for Smash Bros, because only tools play that shit competitively.

I still don't get why the fuck developers don't put n cheat codes to unlock all the characters, stages, and costumes or whatever if they're doing unlockables like they used to.

>>188889
So...a clone.
I thought they wanted to avoid that this time.

>>188899
Toon Link at least has the benefit of functioning a little differently with his quicker floater movement and less powerful attacks.

Lucina they just straight up admitted to being a 98% copy paste job, the only discernible difference is that "tipping" is gone from her smash attacks plus she's like two inches shorter.
If the team had spent a few extra hours on her to do something like have her fully charged Dolphin Slash stun or give her an extra rep on her sword dance, or make her counter send enemies up, she could have actually played differently than a brainless Marth.

The kicker is that I bet you all dollars to doughnuts that she has the exact same custom moves as Marth too so she's not even good "friends only" fodder.

>>188889
>She has the exact same set of special moves that Marth does, but like the game's director Masahiro Sakurai explained, the main difference between Lucina and Marth is that the former's moves will do the same damage regardless of which part of her blade hits, whereas Marth's attacks will only do maximum damage if the tip of his blade brushes the opponent.

So when they say the special moves are the same do they mean just the B attacks or are the regular A-based attacks the same too? If that's the case then shit it's even worse than Roy.

Pretty much. Lucina is literally Marth for casuals, which makes them excluding Chrom even more puzzling. By that logic he could've been perfectly viable as Ike, but with tipping. It's not like he doesn't have Aether too.

>>188902
If you watch the reveal trailer, the little screen time she has, you can see that her normals are also the same. She appears to be, as of now, exactly the same character as Marth but without tipping.

Roy played vastly different than Marth in melee. Roy was slower, fell faster, did more damage, and his N.B charged for longer and a fully charged one damaged him. It was a Ken/ Ryu situation.

Lucina and Marth however is a Ryu AE and Ryu AE: 2012 level of difference.

Not sure...

>Hey lets give a character a really unique gimmick
>Ok
>Oh hey she plays like most of the other cast members because her gimmick is only useful as a combo extender
>How did that happen?
>Well we let our art team completely dictate how the character evolved and they clearly had no idea for how to differentiate her from the rest of the cast as to how she would fight and handle and what makes her tick they just drew cool things
>Well why didn't they consult Mike or someone as to how they envisioned them fighting and how to integrate the gimmick into a key part of their gameplay like Fortunes head or Napalm Shot?
>Because that would make sense and also I'm sure the budget had something to do with it

Who are you quoting?

Care to let us know what you're going on about?

>>188943
How badly Eliza's been handled.

>>188944
I don't think they mishandled her at all to be honest.

Most of her normals are useless, her gimmick amounts to nothing but a situational combo extender, and her gameplan, at least from what I've played of her and have seen feels pretty bland and l almost want to say kind of close to Filias.

She could have been so much more, but right now she's just sort of there. What should have happened is that Eliza just uses the parasute for a few attacks, but it's never out on its own (because it is beyond shitty) or they should have dropped some of Elizas specials and gave them to the parasite along with slowing Elizas movement down a bit and increasing the parasite. This could have forced players to switch between the two and make tough calls when in combos. Right now there is little to no reason to burn meter with your parasite unless you're using the Blockbuster.

MAYA REVEALED - Full Breakdown…

>>188946
She's not finished yet and I don't think everything is set in stone. I'm willing to wait and see how things turn out.

>>188948
The only thing she's missing is sound and a a little balancing. Mike said as much at EVO as well as last night.

Street Fighter 2: Ryu vs Fei Long (fight)

Bryan Cranston best Fei Long.

>>188963
Man despite being over 10 years old Melee still manages to look pretty great.

>>188963
I'm a little sad they dropped the realistic look for Mario.

>>188975
Yeah, I thought the denim was a nice touch. (Same thing happened to Luigi) I guess they wanted to "simplify" the characters? Or maybe those are the 3DS models?

WRASSLIN’ IS COMIN’ TO MAH SKULLGIRLS

>>188985
Finally, a new grappler is coming. I hope.

>>188995
Yep, if we're lucky we might actually get a real grappler in Skullgirls. Here's hoping he has chain grapples or at the very least a grab rekka.

Meanwhile, on Friday Night Fisticuffs...

Spooky.

Some are decent. Some are dumb.

Either way it looks like they're done with SFIV for a while.

>>189073

Only good ones: Dan, Sakura, Cammy, Adon, Juri, El Fuerte, Dictator, Blanka, Elena, and Poison.

The rest are all garbage.

>>189076
Granted she looks awesome, but I can't figure out what outfit she's wearing. Is this a carpenter's outfit? Did she get a summer job as a janitor? What?

>>189082
That doesn't sound like a good fit for Makoto, but it's awesome.

Also the Vega costume looks cool too. Like if he didn't have the mask and claw he'd look like he was going yachting or something.

2 questions.

1. Even though Street Fighter IV is "done" for the foreseeable future, would you like to have 6 more characters to bump up to roster to a nice round 50?

2. Would anyone terribly mind if I made a big long dumb post about the new costumes?

>>189108

1.) No. Let Ultra SFIV be the end. SFV should go in the direction SFIII did: give us a whole bunch of new characters and bring back a handful of SFII/III/IV characters.

2.) I say go right ahead.

Alright. I didn't hate all of them but some of them were a bit awful. I would have liked to see the Udon sketches of these to see what they were going for.

Abel:Kinda looks like a JoJo character. I like it.
Adon:He's got that Persian nightclub guy thing going for him. They should have did something with the hair though.
Akuma:I don't think Akuma would wear Bermuda shorts and a tank top but the rope fists work.
Balrog:It works but he needs better colors. Also could have donr without the flowers.
Blanka:Kinda boring but not offensive. It works.
C.Viper:No idea what the fuck they were going for here. Best I could guess is a gliding suit or something. Either way the colors clash too much. Hair's fine though.
Cammy:Perfect
Chun Li:I don't think Chun Li is a cluber girl. It's neat but doesn't really suit her.
Cody:Construction worker/Community Service Cody is fine. Pants legs need to be the same length though.
Dan:Golf Dan is best Dan
Decapre:This was not very thought out and seems really lame. They should have ditched the high tech stuff or at the very least did something better with the shoes.
Dhalsim:It's the turban. They should get rid of the turban. Maybe longer sleeves.
DeeJay:This is an embarrassment. His first two were fine. This is horrible.
Dudley:Yuppie Dudley is fine. I have no issue with it.
E.Honda:They kinda just gave up with him didn't they?
Elena:It looks more like a neglige than a sundress or maybe it's something to wear over her bikini. Loos the arm and leg guards and take two layers off the necklace and it 's fine.
El Fuerte:It's fairly in offensive. Pretty basic. It works.
Evil Ryu:Maybe it's just a bad angle but the shoulder things aren't working.
Fei Long:I guess the excuse is he's making a movie or something. Either way it's fine. The suit is still better.
Gen:I like the hat but he needs a shirt.
Gouken:King of the fucking Sea. Doesn't make a lick of sense. Fucking hilarious.
Guile: Nice D.Dark reference.
Guy:The hoodie is fine. The knee-braces aren't. Should have just wore pants or shorts.
Hakan:Surfing Hakan? That's fine I guess.
Hugo:Pretty cool casual look. The gloves are a bit much though.
Ibuki:To be fair that's a terrible shot of her. That being said it still doesn't excuse what they put on her head. It's too distracting.
Juri:This is a neat concept. I don't like the head band though.
Ken:Probably would have been better with longer pants. It's fine overall.
M.Bison:I don't know what they were going for with this one. Yakuza boss or something? It's not terrible.
Makoto:Kick ass. I have no idea why she's wearing it though.
Oni:Kinda lazy but get's the job done. Probably could have lost the shoulder pad.
Poison:Classy.
Rolento:More like Brolento. I like it.
Rose:You know I would buy her wearing some sort of fancy swimsuit but it's the shoes that ruin it. She hasn't had a great run of costumes.
Rufus:They wanted scuba Rufus they got scuba Rufus. I can't complain.
Ryu:He looks like Ken dressed him. It works but the sunglasses are a bit much.
Sagat:The hat should be solid color. Otherwise it's pretty cool. Reminds me of C.Jack.
Sakura:Nice if a bit boring. Don't think she had a terrible one yet.
Seth:I don't hate it. Just wasn't expecting it.
T.Hawk:3 for 3 in garbage costumes. The could have salvaged it if they had gave him long pants and got rid of the face paint.
Vega:Nice. If he didn't have the mask and claws he'd look normal.
Yang:Not terrible. Probably could have lost the gloves.
Yun:The jacket and pants did not have the be the same color or at the very least nor that shade or orange. Let's hope he has better color choices.
Zangief:He looks like the hazmat guys from Monsters Inc. I love it.
