I have no sympathy for the Lili users having the godlike sidestep, then again I always throw out unsafe stuff.
Haha yea I hated Lili from the time she arrived. I remember thinking how stupid of a character she was, but compared to some of the T7 ones now I have to laugh at that lol.

NRS do a good job on getting people interested in their games. I guess they have a good marketing department. But damn it...a good netcode actually means further retention and they can pump out more DLC if they want and people would buy it. There's more money in selling a game at $60 every year or so though apparently.

I'm reading the KP2 threading laughing. Garbage patches on incomplete characters, some get uber buffed while others twiddle their thumbs, unplayable 15f delay Netcode, BUT WAIT, BUY MORE CHARACTERS. Nah man, I'm not spending a dime and will not buy their next installment unless I hear from credible people I trust that the online is legit. MKX experience soured me and now they'll need to prove that they caught up to the rest of the industry next game.

With that being said, take Tekken. Incredibly balanced fair gameplay, free characters if they release more, free customization, godlike Netcode. They can have every penny for the game they put out. I play both games at the moment, but my experiences are night and day.

Dude, I still don't own the game nor next gen. I KNEW this game was going to be a steaming pile of poop due to my past experiences. Saved myself some money there...I guess I have an excuse to get next gen now as the new MGS came out but outside of FGs...that's about all I play.

I want to enjoy NRS' games but god damn it...they're so insistent on being incompetent dickheads. "Hurp durp! The kasualz will $$$ da predetor!!! I LIKE MONEY!" All they give a flying fuck about is profits. Profits which they can't even put towards a decent ass netcode that'll get them more profits but they're too stupid to figure this one out. It's so bad.

Make a decent netcode and people will give you more money...I mean...what the fuck. It's pretty glaringly obvious that the netcode blows ass to anyone. Then they patch the game 30 times over a year and abandon it. Yeah...no wonder people stop playing it because the online is ass and you can't keep up with all the patches and then immediate hot fixes because NRS fucked up the patching too.

God damn it, NRS! Stop fucking up!

This right here man. Someone had a status asking if 8 Kharacters and uneven costume distribution (Jacqui lol) is worth a full game. Compared NRS business model to the one Capcom had for SF4. I just brought up Tekken and Namco's free everything. Free patchces, free characters, free customization (emblem creator dlc anyone?). Only reason I got DLC for MK is cause you can get shit for cheap on PC.

Anyone who only plays NRS fighters I feel a little sorry for. If you're a fan of fighting games you owe it to yourself to get at least one game that plays great online, has a community and doesn't have crazy "dirt" like it's a marvel game.

Yea I can't get into the DLC thing at all. Like buying "skins"? Really? I'm used to unlocking points through gameplay and customizing my character with 500 items to choose from lmao! How you gonna tell me buy an outfit when I can pick my own hair style/color, shirts, pants, color of clothes, accessories, etc for my character in other games? I despise the DLC model some of these game have.

Sometimes i wonder how much some people would trip out of they played a different game lol. Some people play multiple fighters for fun as I do, but I think some people truly don't know any better so they think what they receive here is the norm.

Yeah, SF4 even is tolerable over wifi...I'm in so cal so in theory, I COULD play offline but so cal is also a pain in the ass. Gotta drive everywhere, fight with traffic, and nothing is really centralized. The NYC guys are pretty lucky. LA is damn near as expensive and you've gotta drive here...public transportation is shit here. No choice. I don't want to drive to places like Ontario. Everything is 20+ miles away which is an hour in traffic typically.

Yes, you average 20mph on the damn freeways here...it's a joke. Public transportation will take you 3x as long though. That's why the so cal turn outs often suck because traveling further than 5 miles is a pain in the dick.

By community I just meant a healthy online scene. But if you're in socal I would def go through whatever to attend some events. I'm EC and once I get my funds up and school is taken care of I plan on going to a major or two. Managed to get a friend to get interested too!!!

I just honestly don't have the time/desire to drive all over the place. Then I've gotta drive back. LA traffic is real life NRS lag...it's bad. haha

Salt, I even said in the KP2 thread that there is no way I'm buying it. The only thing companies understand is cashflow, so as much as I'd like to buy it, since I enjoy MKX, there's no way. I need to vote with my wallet. The netcode is so horrific that I basically have given up playing, which is a shame. Now it's relegated to "super casual local matches on the weekends sometimes while I'm drunk with my friends."

A lot of people here don't seem to play a ton of games, but I've said it before - I play BlazBlue, Tekken, Skullgirls, and SF4, and they're all infinitely better online experiences. Like, not even comparable. And SF4 came out in frigging 09.

Same. I'm fighting back with my wallet. It's almost criminal that they released an unfinished game with no online playability and charged us full price for it. Then it becomes insulting when they transform into Mimes when asked about Netcode playability or bugs in the game, but then morph into John Cena when it's time to talk about character changes or DLC. I know some others will just blindly buy but I won't contribute to that when other companies are doing the same thing but a lot better.

Usually when you have great internet online is amazing. Tekken online feels like I'm playing someone in my house. MKX online feels like I'm playing someone in Korea. I've played BlazBlue online and it felt great too. My friend was playing on wifi and mine wired and it felt better than any MKX game I've played online lol.

Gotta go Tekken lol. If I didn't have this arcade near my house I'd probably have imploded by now.

All the times I've thought of learning stick button never went through with it, now I'm paying for it...
Try it now lol. Tekken and SF are really good games to practice it on. Certain characters play better on stick too. Like I know you use Julia, her stuff comes out a lot easier on a stick. I've got an extra stick, a Hori one if you want to borrow it for a while to practice?

Thanks so much for that offer Salt. I own a brand new TE [360], that's where I played Tekken. Never owned a PS3 or I would of played there. I did play with a converter and a PS1 pad though. I'm a pad warrior for life! I do agree with certain things being easier on stick though.

Well, playing or not. One day when I'm not so lazy, I'm gonna roll through just to watch you pwn kids with Josie and see the game live for the first time.

Yea that's the stick I use for PS3 too lol. It's really good. Tekken can play on pad pretty well. SF I need to use a stick though because I can't do the 6 button thing with a pad.

Haha yea man definitely let me know. At the earlier times it's usually a lot of scrubs so you can spend $2 pwning people for hours lol. That's the time I use to get comfortable with the new characters or practice changes on the old ones. Then in the evening good players come so the games get serious. That's when I stick strictly to Bryan/Josie lol.

I also cannot do the 6 button thing with the bumpers on a pad. Got my HORI FC4 ready for SFV.

I'll roll through on a slow day, like a weekday when your playing on lunch or something, we'll set that up. About time I see the game first hand anyhow. Even though it's just gonna make the wait harder, lol.

Yea that sounds good. It'll be easier for you to get more exp with the game like that too. Just be warned, once you play T7 and go home to turn on MKX, life will never be the same again lol.

Sooo jealous :(
Look at it this way, at least through all our playing we can record some video to post. :DOGE

Haha, doubt I'll play. Maybe once... Between not playing TTT2 in 6 month or more and not being able to with my 360 in the closet [might break it out], button layout being different, and me being totally retarded on a stick... I see no point, lol. I do however want to see the game in person, so I will definitely roll through and chill.
