They can't release that 3s Alex costume after those nerfs.
man I don't even play Alex anymore after what they did to him lol

I don't think 3s Yun or Makoto are good examples of setplay. Urien would be better.
And I never said it wasn't a part of SF (you named like 5 characters over the entire series
), I just meant it wasn't as prevalent as it is now.yeah I think its less offence and defence
But rather, what are they going to do, vs what am I going to do

Wonder if we get a new character announcement this month.
Considering how they've approached the game not sure if they see it as a problem
Probably, & it'll likely be Kolin.

Out of all of that only the nostalgia costume is happening.
These are all the things I'd want btw. None of these will also happen in season 2.5, 3 or 4.
You serious? I thought I was the only one. Alex was already the only character I spent real money on and I'm not about to spend another $5 on a character that is kinda... not good.

Announcement+ release in Feb.
Very true.
This is what I'm expecting. We're probably due for a Capcom Pro Tour 2017 details announcement & some info on the CFN update, too.

Actually it does make sense to release it now tbh. He was one of the worst characters in 3s and now he's one of the worst characters in S2. Pretty nostalgic tbh
You forgot Eita, that guy is crazy.

Just named the first few that came into my head, any of those ST characters is worse than anything in SFV though.
I think it's because you don't really have good option selects any more that people think SFV has strong oki, you could select your way out of so much stuff, and backdash a lot more because of invincibility (fucking' Rose).
Out of interest who in SFV do you consider to have oppressive oki?

With no more invincible meterless DPs, no broken air tatsu, and EX air tatsu not being as good, I'd be surprised if Eita replicated his success from last season without changing his style.
I don't think it's oppressive. You're right, it's not as bad as something like T.Hawk in ST. I just think that SF5's design, for better or worse, is very frame dependent, and this leads to situations that repeat themselves over and over. Like...would a toolassisted knockdown oki setup exist in any other game for frame perfect meaties? Akuma, for example. Every knockdown leads to very similar oki setups. I don't think he's a great character, but if you guess wrong on knockdown, it's easy to get steamrolled. I don't think that's because of smart play. It's because you're constantly put into situations where it's a coinflip. One guess is as good as another.
Frame data guides all of the decisions in this game. You can almost tell what a special move will be, its utility, and it's +/- data, and I think it's because of how knockdowns work. This game feels very 3s like to me, but in SF3, you got up much quicker, so while you had the advantage as the person on offense, it wasn't the same as in this game where if you do A, and they quickrise, then this move is a perfect meaty, or if you do B, then this move, etc.
I don't think it sucks. I love the game. But I expected more changes going in to season 2.
I'm not giving up hope yet, but I'm definitely not playing the game as much as I did the first year. I'll follow it and check out all of the new characters. I still want to get platinum. After that, I'll start putting time into other fighters.
Capcom & Lupe Fiasco are doing an event on February 15th to celebrate the beginning of the 2017 CPT season.
The newest Season 2 character is likely to be revealed here, or he/she may already be revealed by then.

The Lupe v. DaiGOAT rematch?

I think the simple solution to increased setplay is for techs to have fewer stand animations. Just decrease the frame advantage that knockdowns create. Except for corners - corners should hurt a lot.
Wouldn't the more sensible change be to V-Reversal damage? (I don't even understand why they do damage)
A Marvel player and a Guilty Gear player. ;-)
Every culture has exceptions. For example, I would say that most people in the West are impatient and focus on taking risks in stead of slow and solid play. Then you have Smug.
Yeah, I agree. I think that's a big difference between this and 3s.

"This year, were returning to the same venue 1 year later to celebrate both the release of Lupes highly anticipated album, DROGAS Light, the Capcom Pro Tour and Street Fighter V Season 2s newest character, coming later this month. Stay tuned for more details next week regarding the newest character."
Well shit, new SFV character reveal next week.
Should there be a thread for this, or should we wait for the actual reveal?

In most cases, new characters come out the month they're revealed.

Need a trailer or a blog post about it before making a thread.
Also damn does this party sound like fun. why is it always the west coast that gets all the fun stuff ;_;
Basically any big Street Fighter event is in California.
Makes sense
And I feel the same way. Nothing awesome ever happens here in Texas concerning the FGC (Texas Showdown aside).

At least ya'll have some big tournaments. SC got nothing.
Damn
I can't wait until I graduate so I can accumulate the cash needed to move to New York (thank god Engineering pays well).

to be fair, we've only had this level of game data for SF4 and 5. back in the days of sf3 we'd have used it this way too
of course in sf3 we had parries to stop this kind of stuff, but I don't think capcom will add global parries any time soon. I feel that another solution is moving V-Reversal to spend grey health instead, so if you are blocking a lot, you can use them without spending your V-Trigger
I feel that V-Reversals should be the tool to fix this but the way they work right now they aren't effective and are waay too expensive
Finally, some news.

I've seriously thought about moving to New York. Numerous reasons in general, but Chicago/Midwest scene is pretty small.
And that's....kinda cool that they are promoting the new character like that. But you still have to drop the character trailer and CPT info by next week before you see me eat Capcom so no dice.

Tell me about it, man. Whenever I see people complaining about DLC coming to fighters, I just cry and say I wish SC had half of what other fighters get. :/
