I kinda hope with the 5 new characters that Capcom takes playstyles from the alpha series/3rd strike/EX games and puts them into new characters. Let's be honest, Remy, Twelve, Adon, Sean, Cody, Guy, Rufus and many others are just kinda lame looks/personality wise but can all be fun to play. So far most of the SFV cast at least look interesting (some in bad ways though).

Also fuck Dan players.

Remy, or another character like him, has no chance in hell considering we have both guile and Charlie.

Twelve shouldn't be too hard to do, but , might prove difficult in execution. I'd love to see Adon and Sean again, and if they do bring in Rufus, I hope that He's on weight watchers.

Well we already have Birdie who got fat, maybe Rufus shed some pounds and now has faster moves but loses most of his crouching moves and gets new ones.

I think it'd be funny to see him on an attempted weight plan. Give him the sweat bands and pants and shit. I'm for the idea of a slightly faster Rufus if the exchange is that he doesn't cover as much ground. As if he was more mobile when he was obese.

What's the fastest way to make fighting money?

Helen will be Rose, Nuakan will be adon/sagat and Bishamon will be mixed with Sodom (and actually be Sodom in the armour)

play the game

What's the general level of play going on in the lobby? I don't want to join if there's a bunch of like, Diamond+'s.

Just join you fucking pussy.

...

Atm its just me, ultra gold. Come fight my bad Urien, I'm mostly just trying to learn.

rare footage of fang winning

There's no point in playing, if I'm gonna get beat so hard that I'm not gonna learn.

>urien

Pass. Even pros are complaining about him right now, and I even understand why. No thank you.

asante sana squash banana nee nee nee nee

sorry urien, i may be shit, but this was teleport fest for me
ger juri

*the lower shittier one

Yeah the connection was awful for me too

You refuse to play against a certain character? When the "pros" dont even think he's the best in the game?

You should probably either forget trying to get any better at the game or just play against friends who are also scrub tier.

>When the "pros" dont even think he's the best in the game?

What. That's precisely what they are saying. Urien is without a doubt the safest and best character in the game in Season 2. Even people like Justin Wong are saying, "I guess we'll just hope that we don't have to deal with this for an entire year."

Are you listening exclusively to Justin Wong? Because players like Nemo, Xiohai, Momochi, Luffy, Tokido, Infiltration and quite a few more place other characters ahead of Urien or at least think they can fight him.

Of the pros you know, how many are actually playing Urien if he's so good? When money is on the line why would a pro not pick the best character in the game?

Urien is top 5 right now, probably.

Is the lobby still up ? I'm gonna join in a sec

This German plats lagging a bit, anyone wanna split and play in another lobby?

The wait for another match is 2 long

I agree completely, it's why I want to use him as an alternative to my previous main of Birdie. But because a character is top 5 does not mean you should refuse any fight against them. That's some turboscrub mindset.

>EU players

Lobby still up.

I really find this game to be boring after the season 2 update. Removal of meterless reversal options limits what the person waking up can do. Obviously not that players should be waking up with reversals all the time, but the fact that they were there acted as a deterrent to constant oki after every single knockdown, and the possibility of getting read and punished with a full CC combo was a fair balance to them. Now SFV seems entirely momentum based. You have no options on defense other than spending meter for a V-reversal, or spending a third of your super meter for an invincible reversal, which still caries all the same risks as in season 1. Being knocked down puts you completely at your opponent's mercy, and being put into the corner is a death sentence.
TL;DR Are GG or KoF any more fun, because I'm getting bored of this game.

Street Fighter 5? You mean that game that stopped working on my computer after a few months of working perfectly?

Damn, diamond Juri here gotta go.
Anyone who wants to play some time just add me on CFN or steam

I'm playing but I only get 50 fighting money per match.

>messing around with Balrog
>so many Akumas online
>wipe out 60% of his health with Rog's CC combo
why does this nigga do so much damage

no one was talking about you

The VAST majority of knockdowns don't even lead to meaty situations where the person who was knocked down has to guess. Even less so in S2 than S1.

Learn to quick rise.

Is it normal that it takes like 5+ min to find a fucking match?

Warpphoenix what the actual fuck was that connection, Fellow brit here and that was disgusting

Yeah i dunno you're a 2 bar to me. Assuming you're the gief.

>Now SFV seems entirely momentum based
>is GG fun
Guilty Gear is setups for days, even more offensive based than SFV. The only differences are GG is an anime fighter and has way more defense mechanics than SFV.

play more

no, but expect it to load and play music for a minute after finding one

The mystery of Kagemusha™

I find that the key problem I have with Street Fighter V is the fact that you can play any character (with the exception of Mika or Dhalsim) and they all feel exactly the fucking same. I got 100 hours played in the first month then dropped it so hard. Is anyone else in the same boat as me and does anyone know if things are improving for season 2? If not I'm just gonna wait till MVC3 hits PC

welcome to unga land my man

Just because it doesn't lead into meaty doesn't mean your options aren't severely limited by how - you are.

Personally I just don't find any of the characters fun anymore. I used to greatly enjoy playing Bison and Birdie and Mika and they're just ot the same. Bison's totally changed, Birdie is some kinda wannabe Balrog now with all the hold combos and Mika's just boring as shit without the wallbounce

GG and KoF are insanely more momentum based than SFV.

Fuck my man, you might as well play MvC if you honestly think those are alternatives.

Yes.

Season 2 is a disaster. Somehow they managed to top the release.

dedgaem

same here, i played the beta and everything was fine till the Urien's update aka rootkit.
Are you on win7 by any chance?

>Just because it doesn't lead into meaty doesn't mean your options aren't severely limited by how - you are.

But you're not minus, the aggressor is usually the one is minus. You need to learn your frame data instead of complaining about shit you don't understand.

yeah thats me, german was a 4 bar and you were only a 2. What in fuck

Same, the germans were mostly fine for me. Must be TalkTalk

>usually the aggressor is the one who is minus
>when they get a knockdown

>when you spend hours playing ranked, get a decent rise in points just to fall back to where you started

fuck Bison, Balrog, and Karin

Yes. Like I said, learn your frame data.

Virtually every character in the game is minus after a throw and a dash to get in range to be at their wake-up, they also made it so virtually everybody is minus after a successful v-reversal and a dash to capitalize on the knockdown. Most characters can't capitalize on sweep knockdowns either unless they're crush counters. Fuck, even characters people complain about being put into the blender against like Laura are minus after a command grab.

learn the match-up, fag

>after a throw and a dash
We're done here

I've had this for the past week. Like, I just want to fucking get to gold so I can stop facing these bronze fucks. But no, every time I get to like 3908 points or so, it slaps me with an obvious smurf who beats the living shit out of me and slaps me back down to 3500.

Yeah we are, because you're too much of an idiot to even begin to defend your incorrect stance on the subject.

tfw europe scene is fucking dead for sf5

It wasn't like this for sf4, we need to go back

No idea who's arguing what here but I'm just going to say that dashing after a throw is not a thing in SFV.

What the fuck are you talking about, it's as alive as ever

That's one of the points I am making. How is the game extremely momentum based when neutral is reset after so many situations, such as eating a throw.

The everything scene is dead for SFV

You can't go "hey guys we're gonna have incremental changes with DLC" for months and months and then turn around and totally rebalance the game overnight. The only people who are going to be happy about that are pro players who weren't already winning.

You either put out a game and wait for it to die before releasing a rebalance with new characters or you make incremental changes to keep a consistent player base. You can't do both. They are opposing strategies.

I'm already at Gold, but I had the same problem when I was trying to get there.

I stopped playing ranked when I hit Gold way back in March, now I want to make the effort to try get back up there, and it's the same bullshit all over again. I started at 4200+ today, went as high as 4500, now I'm back at 4286

>He thinks you can dash after a throw

>nothing but akumas online
>nash has a rough time against him

fuck

Balrog gets a meaty after throw dash.

throwing then dashing is not what anyone except you have been talking about in terms of oki/meaty

Perhaps SFV is your first fighter and you're stuck in the season 1 mindset?

I'll just leave this here

youtube.com/watch?v=3jPCGvGxB0w

>he can't into reading comprehension
I do love that you're continuing to embarass yourself though!

Good ol' eurobongs

>You can dash after performing a throw
>here, let me show you this video of SWEEP meaties
Yeah, absolutely autistic.

Again: you're the only person talking about throwing then dashing. No one else has brought it up at all.

I'm not even the guy you've been talking to, I'm the guy calling you a retard for thinking you can dash after a throw.

>barely beat a Bison player
>leave match after win because the match was shitty and not fun to play
>get matched up with him again right after and lose

>oki still exists in season 2 retard
>NUH UH YOU CAN'T THROW THEN DASH
>no one said anything about throwing then dashing
>LOOK AT THIS RETARD HE THINKS YOU CAN THROW AND DASH
>no one said that
>I'M NOT EVEN THAT GUY I'M JUST LAFFIN BECAUSE YOU THINK YOU CAN THROW AND DASH

bruh I'm not even that guy I'm just here laughin cause you think you can't throw and dash

I started posting after yourI didn't even read anything else you posted because this post looks like you are implying it.

>someone at capcom playtested the season 2 patch
>and decided that laura was alright for release
>someone looked at that monster and thought that was good and balanced
>people have been forced to write down a 5 page long evernote document just on how to defend against her

Wow, look at this one example of a character getting a meaty situation off a move.

You know what you can do if Ryu sweeps you and then dashes in on you? Just block and at most delay tech, hell, eat the throw for a bit of damage and then you're back in neutral because Ryu can do literally nothing that is real after a throw.

Backtrack to SF4, where virtually every throw in the game and every single sweep in the game lead into a hard knockdown where you had to guess on your wake-up every single time and, if you guessed wrong, you were right back on the ground having to guess yet again.

Yet 4 isn't considered any more of a momentum based game than any other fighting game.

You can't, unless you're a couple of specific characters like Rog and Mika.

>You know what you can do if Ryu sweeps you and then dashes in on you?
Did you even watch the video?

You're fucking retarded. There's more to oki and meaties than DURR I DASH IN ON YOU

>Every Bison, Vega and Blanka match ever

nigga sf4 had invincible backdashes, crouch tech, and DP FADC

I don't mind a character being that good, but why Laura? She's not fun to play, play against or watch. Bad choice, Capcom.

Listen.
Taking the throw in S2 is basically resetting the situation back to neutral.

After throw on most of the cast there are these scenarios:
>Meaty (Most common option but will still not work usually because there's no reason to press a button)
>Walk up frametrap if they're trying to defend their space (unreliable, only slightly in attackers favor)
>Walk up throw (Only works if they're heavily intimidated)

Sometimes you get single overhead hits well (urien) or better oki because the time to re-throw is relatively short and people are respecting your option to meaty (Juri) but in general, throw oki is dead outside of the corner.

Are there any silvers that would like to practice, or lower golds? I feel lonely at this rank.

Are the servers fucked or something? I've been searching for a ranked match for 13 minutes now.

Why do you keep bringing up throws

Are you literally autistic?

Are you a baby boy?

sure, gib steam

Yeah, most of it is autistic counter-hit combos that are never going to work on even halfway decent players because only a fucking retard would wake-up with a button that isn't a true reversal in that situation.

You know what beats LITERALLY every single thing in that video. Holding down-back.

You first!

First time i responded in this thread but it's what everyone else is talking about.

Throw oki is dead which means that whenever you're in a pressure situation you can just take the throw to get out for free, which effectively makes ANY OTHER KIND of Oki worse too.

All which are guesses because every single one could be blown up by various options.

It's almost like you don't know what the words oki or momentum mean

Do you have the reaper icon in your profile?

No.

>it's what everyone else is talking about.
No, it's what one moron brought up when literally no one else was talking about it.

See Read threads before replying you colossal dipshit

Post steam/CFN/PSN I'll body you.

steamcommunity.com/id/general_sexy/

Nigger you ain't listening. His point is you should always block now, cause either you will just block what they try or take the throw which isn't much damage and resets everything back to neutral
