[shaowebb]

That neck tho

That's really great overall. I just want to know 2 things he didn't mention :

- How are the rage quitters handled ? I really hope it's automatic loss and bp penalty for any disconnection.

- The "Casual match" matchmaking is searching your opponent based on your ranked level or not ?

 

[katsubento]

Fuck the internet, I'm pre-ordering every Yakuza game that comes out in the future and DragonBall FighterZ.

You already did that. We know the truth.

Is there a Capcom fighter less aesthetically pleasing than MvCI?

 

[kikiribu]

Oh dear...

I've shit on MVCI lots of times but I actually like her face in that pic lol

 

[oneida]

I've shit on MVCI lots of times but I actually like her face in that pic lol

why is the space between her lip and her nose so fuckin huge? she looks like a dr seuss character.

 

[kikiribu]

why is the space between her lip and her nose so fuckin huge?

Yeah that's the only real "bad" thing about it for me and I wish her hair was more green

 

[shaowebb]

This. Plus her hand is bigger than her head too so shes got a bit of dat SF style proportion as well. Guess they weren't just interns but unpaid interns. Didn't even bother doin proportion checks vs the character art or anatomy charts. The men got no necks and shrunken heads and the women got giraffe necks and also shrunken heads (lol chun's tiny tiny head).

Pray for patches that fix the models and chromatic aberration. At least the online is solid though.

 

[Dahbomb]

LOL how is no one talking about that neck length tho?

Seems they did use an anatomy chart but it was indeed apparently from Dr Seuss Whoville image galleries lol.

 

[kikiribu]

LOL how is no one talking about that neck length tho?

Weren't people complaining about no neck on last page? Now it's too much neck? neogaf.gif

Check this out. Capcom also designed this girl's neck

The baby giraffe look is in! Sorry to disappoint

OMG, fuck you. Now I cannot unsee.

:T

 

[A Pretty Panda]

Infinite combos, infinite neck

 

[LucidMomentum]

Infinite combos, infinite neck

I mean, she is a Succubus...

 

[Line_HTX]

Infinite combos, infinite neck

It only works if you have the Time Stone, I think... lol

 

[oneida]

in all seriousness i hope the game is good & that versus fans like it
i'm just surprised it released looking as ugly as it does??? character design is just incoherent. what the fuck happened to spider man alsjdf;kjd;f

 

[AAK]

Street Fighter 4 and especially Street Fighter x Tekken.

 

[Onemic]

The game looks visually just as bad in person as it does on stream. The ui looks like it was made by an indie mobile team

 

[Anne]

IMO it looks worse in person than on stream.

 

[MechaX]

I would say that it is the second coming of PlayStation All Stars in terms of UI.

 

[oneida]

Street Fighter 4 and especially Street Fighter x Tekken.

SFxT was turbo farts but at least SFIV had one coherent art style... i don't know. I don't think I agree that MvCI looks better than SFIV.

 

[shaowebb]

If MVCI does poorly I hope they realize that its due to how poorly it comes across in trailers and on boxes with these models and crazy CA with rampant recycled roster syndrome. You trying to look new then show new faces and make certain those faces dont look like a 360 version of a Dr Seuss giraffe. Gameplay and netplay seem great so far, but man did this need to be polished better in presentation and roster.

Please lord let this be a work in progress on models and shaders. The roster is coming but man we need to do some damage control on these things because this is gonna get as bad as Injustice 1 Wonder Woman screenshotting with these models. Just look at Spiderman or Chris of FLANK.

Back to 3 man teams 👁

 

[MechaX]

I have been seeing that Spider-Man pic all day and I still don't even know where to start on roasting that shit

 

[Numb]

 

[Brobzoid]

I

this looks like a pic from one of those wrestling games with really robust custom character creator options.

 

[Sayad]

Seriously Capcom! Shaders aside, even KoFXIV has way better models!!

 

[shaowebb]

this looks like a pic from one of those wrestling games with really robust custom character creator options.

I think a lot of the guys have this problem. Its like they wanted those huge Goldberg shoulders but didn't use reference images and didn't know how high those muscles needed to be. If you over do it you either end up goin as high as the entire neck or you see folks put a neck on top of those instead of starting at the collar bone region and you get another type of giraffe problem entirely from the stuff you see Morrigan suffering from (trust me it is worse than hers if you've seen this). Dont ask me why he also has a tiny head though. There is zero reason for that unless they simply shrank head neck and all trying to correct a giraffe problem after fucking up proportions and that takes some fuckery with masking to even begin to end up doing.

No clue here. How these models got past peer checking or silhouette tests without drastically overhauling them using reference materials I'll never know. I mean you can even load 2d images as overlays to tug models into the correct proportions to match your reference art! Its not like they had to do this by memory or guess work. It would honestly take longer to wing it than to do it correctly.

I think we're just seeing the end results of very green and very cheap interns or new employees crumbling under deadlines. This is very very rough.

 

[katsubento]

Stop pretending like Melee won't outlive us all

It probably will lol.


Nintendo should think about redoing that for Switch. And maybe...updating it for the tournaments that they want no part of.

It would sell a lot though

I wonder what happened to Poongko. He's not entering anymore tournaments this year and next possibly..

 

[CO_Andy]

MVCi does not look better than SF4 and SFxT (and TvC). Can't forget Meth Addict Donte --

 

[shaowebb]

On a lighter note Fire Pro Wrestling World will be at Revolution 2017 fighting game tourney.
Seems custom characters are allowed as well so if any Euro folk here wanna jump in the ring go for it. I'm certain Wrestle-Gaf will cheer you on...or boo you. Probably both.

Is this a joke post? Have you seen TvC recently?

Dante has seen some serious shit, damn...

 

[The Light]

Why Spider-Man looking like jiren from Dragon ball super tho

Low poly doesn't mean bad, art direction goes a mile

literally blind hate

graphically they can't be compared, and art style obviously comes down to preference but they both look bad

 

[CO_Andy]

yes

 

[direct_quote]

yes

Those models are terribly low res, animations are stiff, hit Sparks are worse, etc. I don't know how that looks better than MvC:I.

 

[shaowebb]

Actually since the TVC community has long since migrated to Dolphin for the netplay and since Frosty Faustings is making the Dolphin setup standard for the tournament (likely so folks can use sticks more readily and since this is how folks are used to it running now) what we play looks more like this.

Nothing amazing. Models were still built a bit blocky back in those days, but its not nearly as bad as that still shot above. MVCI has problems, its proportions are definitely a lot worse than TVC and the Chromatic Aberation is hurting it a ton, but overall MVCI doesn't look like a polygonal Wii title. Just a poorly made current one.

 

[Village]

yes

that does infact look better than mvci, art style wise

 

[chocolate disco]

TvC looks fantastic. Better than MvC3 in everything other than gameplay. Can't comment on gameplay.

I say MvC3, because MvCI looks worse than either of them.

 

[Karsticles]

Why does Morrigan have vampire fangs?

Haha, what? TvC looks awful compared to MvC3.

So it looks like this in stills

Still don't see it how it looks good in any way tbh. MvCI is ugly too but it's still way ahead in graphics (art direction is bad tho)

 

[chocolate disco]

TvC is more colorful and bright.
Meanwhile with MvC3 it feels like you need a flashlight at hand.
