Fighting Games Weekly | Aug 18-24 | Fall back, u nerd

That's not the slightest bit true and you know it. You're magnifying an issue that isn't even an issue because you're currently frustrated by it (because there's less going on to distract you from it existence).


This is coming from someone that hates the drama talk and largely only pays enough attention to knows what's going in. You're blowing this projected shallowness way out of proportion.

1) Just because there's no tournament this weekend doesn't mean I'm concentrating extra hard on this.
2) You, enzo, and the others are blowing the negatives of a Community section move out of proportion too.
 
I don't care either or in regards to where FGW goes. But I've seen plenty of community OTs on gaming side have it's usual strings of off topic nonsense. Doesn't really stop them from continuing on (beecause those threads know when to stop like we all do.) As much as I couldn't care less for the bullshit goings on in the FGC a lot of people actually enjoy hgetting a sense of discussion going on (I assume.) If you want discussions of the actual games, well go to the OTs already there.

I REALLY really wish we would stop giving certain figures/people attention, but ay

anyway fighting games are fun
So fun

I've been playing BB and having lots of fun. Bang hasn't been this fun since CS1. I also tried Bullet (whose look I hate) and she's actually fun to use. Azrael can go to hell, though. Stupid muscle freak seems to have hitboxes behind too many moves and his damage is insane.

embrace the community side. I can visit NFL-Gaf, Anime-Gaf and FGC-Gaf all on one side.

You mean like you do with your Subscriptions link?

No I'm not. All I said is that we'd get less traffic and exposure. That is a fact. I don't like this. I placed no value judgement on it.

This place will get a lot less viewers and random lurkers who may take an interest in the community if this moves out of here.

Azrael reminds me a bit of Shen Woo from XIII. I just left a lobby with friends and I acidentally picked Amane and he's very neat to use. I might check him out too.

Shame I didn't grab the DLC when it was free. :/ I actually wanted to see if Terumi was fun.

2nd Impact is still the best SF3 iteration
 
i use FGW to keep track of whats going on every week.

I visit the EVE online community and i'm the only one posting sometimes for weeks.

also, the skull girls button mechanics are interesting. I like the punch->kick, low - high flow of comboes, which allow you to make custom comboes on the fly.

i cant believe i didnt pick that up before, and it honestly feels good. i wonder how other fighting games would be like if they implement that

also mesmerman is DOA in gaf

If anything, we're already getting less traffic on average.

do you guys talk about any version of SF prior to SF4? does this thread contain any useful information of that sort? if you guys have any questions regarding stuff like footsies or just general tactics in certain matchups maybe i can be of some use in that area.

It rarely comes up because nobody really brings it up. If you wanna talk about it, then people will (hopefully) be willing to listen.

Unfortunately, not really. There are times when people bring up the topic, but I don't see a ton of fundamentals and footsies discussion in this thread (as opposed to tech).
What do the axis labels mean?

Left to right, hard to easy to use.

Up to Down, good to bad.

I feel like I've just about packed up my traditional fighting game ways and got remarried to Smash again. Forgot how much fun it is to just lab up some new shit or practice tech skill and with Xrd being an unknown release date wise, there's not much else on the mind for the near future.

Community would suck.

The big draw of the thread is being able to discuss smaller events in real-time without a billion different threads.

Man, what the hell happened in this thread? I was busy most of Sunday and... geez. I personally would rather not move to Community, but it's not something I have a strong opinion on. I think the format will make more sense one more major and regional tournaments start -- and I think that is one of the stronger uses of this thread, when notable tournaments that aren't big enough to warrant their own thread come up.

If anything, we're already getting less traffic on average.
I think most of that recent drop-off can be attributed to the post-Evo lull, though.

We could always ask you for some advise in 3S. :V
