The gameplay doesn't fair much better.
They are too modern it seems so you get a lot of brooms instead.
It was a joke.

Damn, how does anybody ever get decent at guilty gear? Just picked up xrd and it's intimidating as fuck. Everything about this seems harder than the more mainstream 2d fighters. Anybody pick this game up not having played the previous iterations and feel like they can utilize all the options from the tutorials/land combos/etc?
Like I'm doing the missions and I can't even get the one that's basically "wakeup dp" with any kind of accuracy. If the timing is that strict I'm amazed anybody is able to play this game at a high level. Better off just spectating like those tetris guys from GDQ.

GG and Tekken reuqire master thesis to reach ground level. Good luck. Me, I just said hell no. Even though I love Elphelt and I want to support Jacko, but those games share their world with no one else....

That's unfortunate might have breathed some more life into Sm4sh.. Guess that's Sakurai being Sakurai... I feel Smash 4's online is living 5 years in the past (and the WiiU in general for online)

The answer is as always practice. You spend enough time and you can probably do all of it. But you also have to remember that you don't need to master all of it to play casually. It's probably better to skip to the next mission if you can't finish one after a few attempts.

The people I've run into tonight on Rising Thunder sure didn't feel like beginners.

Getting decent at GG takes a bit more time than say SF4, but I think SF4 is equally hard to actually get good at and its mostly because the roster is much bigger. Xrd is my first GG, and I don't think its anywhere near as difficult as people make it out to me. There are a lot of game mechanics so the initial learning curve is higher, but all of those game mechanics are what makes it balanced and allows characters to deal with bad matchups.

Where can I find RT combos?
They're hosting the tournament at the same place Sony is having their China press conference. So Capcom is there showing off SFV as well.

I said it before and I'll say it again, GG is easy.
Wow. I gotta trek a minefield as Talos against her and this guy rans away from an average Chel playing as Crow.

Good to see PS4 has a lower skill floor maybe if forstered properly it can get more new people into it.
One person told me Tekken was easy and I laughed. But honestly let me clarifiy, for somebody with no fighting game vocabulary, GG would be very hard. Most people who enjoy it and say it is easy perhaps have a fighting game vocabulary and therefore the connections in the brain are already there making it simpler to learn.

Since we're posting dlc outfits, here are the new ones for Smash. Unfortunately, they're not as lewd as the Tekken ones.

I was watching Youtuber ModernWarNegro and he was complaining about her too lol.
He also called it abusing the game and kept saying "play the fucking game bro" which more conscious minded people in chat kept saying, "it's zoning". But he was headstrong in calling it "cheap" and "abusive" and I guess he felt that being close range mashing buttons is what fighting games are.

Xian answered a guy who asked if their will be a stream, and he said yes. But I think he is mistaken so I'm not going to believe it till I see it.
That Black Knight and Lloyd look SO good

Definitely hit a point where I hate Rising Thunder. Maybe I'll be able to finally tell if I should just quit fighting games all together.
Oh and it just crashed and rebooted my PC.

Taking a guess and saying they are new to the FGC.

Lobbies can't do 1v1.
This is like bizarro twitch.
That dude from the RT video is having a meltdown on twitter apparently.
I don't even know anymore
I don't even know anymore
its not about being new to the FGC, it's about having complete lack of knowledge on fighting game fundamentals and being stuck in a mentality where you feel fighting games fit a mold and if people don't play within that mold they are abusing the game.
That's why mah dawg Dhaslim can never rock.
ok. well this is just someone with uncontrollable anger problems then.
Yeah I'm following it via Brett and it's pretty glorious if you're into that type of thing.

Also it's in Shanghai? Not shocked at all. Standard practice.
How someone get hit by sweep like 9 times in a round tho... How you gonna complain if you absolutely refuse to block?
Like Seth said you can lead a scrub to water but you can't make them think. No matter how simple your control scheme or how little motions you got the basic nature of a traditional fighting is something some people can't handle. Starting to believe that complicated controls aren't as big of a barrier as the mindset is.
Really weird that RT has a dedicated throw and super button and no way to bind multiple buttons to that function. Maybe it makes more sense on a keyboard

Dude is super pissed.
Everything that happens in a match is fair game and there is no one way to play a fighting game. People are actively trying to figure out ways to abuse the limited tools they have been given in the best way possible and you should be thinking that way too. When someone does a move or special on you and you can't defend agaisnt it then it is well in their right to abuse that move until you figure a way out but teaching people this is another story.
That other dude went on a 20min rant about the FGC and even Seth lol.
