This GGPO EVO panel doesn't have enough views.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k9JTIn1SVQ4

Especially the part starting at 19min with a good explanation of how rollback netcode works, which a lot of people still don't understand.

Later on (around 31:20) there is an explanation about "the rift", a problem SFV has.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention. Will give it a watch later.

895 in 2017 LUL

 

[Line_HTX]

Canada still needing that $8.95 at this point?

My biggest regret is missing all of these because I was helping.

I need to watch them all.

In the end we play for fun, nothing more. We shouldn't need monetary incentive to join a tournament.

Sure I play for fun. I'm never going to win anything, but I still want monetary prizes because I want to see this become bigger and better. And if we're just going to keep playing for fun with no money and no stream then things can go back to the pre SF4 days. But I don't want that. And it sucks to see Japan not be able to grow this because they have a lot of great players that could really benefit from the growth.

I wonder how they'll respond if asked to add a male character.

Doesn't just about every major Japanese player already travel?

 

[Line_HTX]

Sponsor more JP players maybe?

 

[Kadey]

Yukadon, your new Capcom Cup champion.

No problem:

Well, you could literally ask them.

The waifu thing is obviously one of Arcana Heart's main gimmicks. but Examu made Deamon Bride which is mostly dudes and they're also working on Million Arthur now which has male characters.

I'd like to ask them if they plan on putting some kind of brief rundown description on what each arcana does as a pop up window on the Arcana select screen. Its not like they dont have a ton of wasted real estate on that screen they could use for space to pull it off. Even if it doesn't breakdown everything so long as it covers the major stuff like extend force, passive and any arcana specific mechanic it'd be fine. Stuff like "gives you poison on normals" or "gives you homing attacks orbs" or "Gives you triple jumps and lasers" would be amazing. As is, the blind selection of Arcana is ridiculous and a full scale tutorial is really whats needed elsewhere in the game but SOMETHING has to be in place at arcana selection or its just blind selecting for new folks.

Aside from that...I dunno. It's my main concern.

Hm, some questions off the top of my head:

- possible GGPO implementation,
- possible console versions later on
- if they plan to develop any unreached stretch goals as DLC later
- Daemon Bride kickstarter

 

[CO_Andy]

Smash community stepping up their assault and battery game

No problem

durn straight

 

[Numb]

Another week and another Smash drama news

 

[Line_HTX]

DBFZ closed beta was supposed to start tomorrow as announced after Tekken 7 Top 8 at EVO, but delayed until August 22 due to capacity and they want to expand it to let more players in.

I trust Hiroki-san to do amazing things. She's already great so far.

 

[Kalamari]

I thought just the sign up was tomorrow.

How about Arcana Heart 4 and how big the team is expected to be for that project. Goin 3d is not an easy jump.

 

[NEO0MJ]

No problem:

Pls delete.

 

[Kadey]

Post EVO is the worst. Need some action.

 

[Cosmo Clock 21]

Defend The North is this weekend.

 

[Kadey]

More like Let's give our money to Punk.

 

[CO_Andy]

we need some action at Da Beech

I trust Hiroki-san to do amazing things. She's already great so far.

giving Nintendo fans two big middle fingers is indeed quite an accomplishment

 

[Karsticles]

That's some dramatization there.

 

[Line_HTX]

Da Beech was the biggest scam of a tournament I have ever seen, lmao

 

[RockTurtle]

it provided a lot of schadenfreude doe...

What about GAMME? Anyone remember that?

IIRC it birthed CEO out of that fiasco so net gain.

Nah, not when more than half the industry is doing it!

Thanks. Very interested to check this out.

Imagine if emp were still a thing and punk joined.

what is triforce up to these days?

living in Jamaica and occasionally traveling to classic game expos in the states if the youtube channel is anything to go by

That would be a shame if Punk joined.

 

[Tizoc]

I am 50-50 about Abigail, I feel like his moves could've looked better, and he didn't really need to be a giant, but then again, I can't think of the last fighter that added a giant sized character to their roster outside of say Kum in GG Xrd, so that does make him stand out a little.

I think the concept is OK but the way they went about it could've been better.

Kum isn't really giant, more like large

Spoiler

Gigas from Tekken 7 is pretty big too.

 

[Doomshine]

Apparently it is, there's a Tekken player at NLBC with EMP. Triforce even showed up in the chat and asked Art to put EMP in his name when he forgot (?) to do it.

As for scam tournaments; I think there's still people who haven't been paid their prize money for Devastation.

 

[Parallax Scroll]

At least the year or so of buildup to VxG was pretty fun.

 

[MechaX]

Real talk tho, fuck David Sirlin. He's a hack that doesn't deserve to be working on more games.

But what if I want more games to have Yomi Counters

 

[Osu 16 Bit]

I don't know about everyne, but I was eventually paid for Devastation but I never got my VXG money.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Abigail is gonna give us some hilarious combo videos

Figured out why Chun Li's new face design looked so familiar to me.

Now everytime we see her on screen all you'll hear in your head is her theme song.

I tried to play SFV but got hit with the 9gig update vortex.

Oh Vulva hates it it must be good. I could probably spare some time this weekend to go see it.

 

[Line_HTX]

Honestly, I'd prefer Interstellar over that instead.
