Why is this the greatest fighting game of all time?

Why is this the greatest fighting game of all time?

it dumps on every other fighting game I have played

the speed is insane, the execution is insane, no comeback mechanisms, the best man wins, pure skill and speed

It's aight.

O. Sagat and Claw can ruin the game for a lot of people. Boxer/Sim/Chun outclass the rest heavily as well.

Still a very fun game.

if vega didn't have a walldive loop, o.sagat got a fireball speed and uppercut damage nerf, and rog didn't have that fucking throw loop and had slightly worse frames the game would be perfect

To be fair, this is the greatest fighting game of all time.

hdr was worse in every way

cosmetically
balance wise
the OST

sirlin picked favorites and made a shitty balanced game

every ST player hated it

USF2 is going to be even fucking worse with throw teching and other nu-sf garbage

>no comeback mechanisms
>pure skill

dice roll damage,stuns, and throw variables say otherwise but i wouldn't expect underage faggots that don't play video games to notice them.

98 will always be my #1 pick but ST comes right on its heels and I've put about an equal amount of time into both over the years, god bless Fightcade/GGPO

Vsav is better

So that leaves Sim and Chun.

Wouldn't you do anything about them?

Underagefags wouldn't even touch this game. They're not ready.

Cry more.

damage isn't that variable, random stun isn't that bad and is fairly predictable

also underage faggots would never even dream of playing this game, try harder

how do I git gud at kof

because it's jank as shit while still being good, matches are tense and exciting at most levels of play, it's something special really
>pure skill
it's got too much fucking RNG for that though, even if the better player absolutely tends to dominate anyway

there's no comeback mechanic bullshit in ST, but it does end up with literal coinflip-tier bullshit

>98
I like you. Fuck, that game is golden. Now there's a rock solid game, 98 almost never throws surprise bullshit in my face.
spent too much time playing 2002 and every fucking day that game would surprise me with how fucking jank it was

how is 02 jank compared to 98?

>Unbalanced
>RNG
>Slowdown
>Horrendously buggy
>Terrible mechanics

>it dumps on every other fighting game
>dumps
back to fgg you go, doug

>>unbalanced
explain how kusumondo got to GFs with a low tier charcter then

>>Slowdown
wrong.

>buggy
in some ways, none of them obnoxious

>terrible mechanics
like?

I dont like it because I literally cant do shit with characters like Honda against Guile or Sagat.

watch kusumondo, you can steer yourself midair

SSF2 is the quintessential 2D fighter. It is the foundation upon which all other 2D fighters are based. But to call it the "best" is arguable. Some would say it's been surpassed by SF3:3S, USF4, KOF98, KOF02, KOF13, GGXXAC, Garou, Blazblue, Samurai Shodown, Last Blade 2, etc

I'd say ac+r and usf4 have a 3 way tie with ssf2t

>ac+r
lolno

Throw loops were insane in this game. I sure as hell don't miss mashing out of grabs.

what is your broblem with ac+r xD

How good do you guys think this will be? Will it end up being the definitive version of the game, or will everyone just go back to Super Turbo again?

I wish Capcom wasn't lazy, and actually added more characters than just Evil Ryu/Violent Ken. It'd be interesting to see how, say, C Viper or Hakan would play in SF2's engine. Continuity be damned.

i'm alvarez on fightcade if anyone wants to play

>How good do you guys think this will be? Will it end up being the definitive version of the game, or will everyone just go back to Super Turbo again?

Doubt it will be good, and there is no way people are going to give up Super Turbo for this.

it will be trash.

I don't trust modern capcom to do any fighting game proper justice after SFV.
