[Zero]

I'm telling yall, leave ranked the fukk alone until another patch drops

I watch a dude on YouTube play Zafina, Nina, and Anna to try to pick up some strategies but ranked now even looks exhausting. Breh legit can't move once shyt gets going some rounds

the game is super one note. if you are not pressing buttons you are going to lose.

there are no archetypes, damage is too high. situations too volatile.

my uninstall point last night was playing against king. realizing they made his running grab homing as I try to step. and reinas new low. Like why do they even need these things? its just retarded rainbow edition ass game design.

its a braindead mechanic. My biggest issue is that it takes away the choice of whether you want your heat activated or not. for example strategically I may be wanting to save my heat for a certain point in the match like after i've gotten your health down 25% or after a normal launch into a heat combo extender, but I need the power crush to get out of pressure. making a power crush move also a heat activator made 0 sense

You're thinking about it wrong. Heat is more about momentum which is why they gave it to armored moves to begin with. Sometimes it's a just do it. I liked doing armored heat engager at round start and basically my opponent doesn't get to play anymore right from the beginning. And if they do they're already too far behind and I haven't even used the heat smash yet.

I think my tekken 8 story finally is at its end lol.


game is miserable to play. s1 was far from perfect but you could see IF they made the right moves it would be better. this patch is so bad it will take years to fix it.

Season 1 just needed to tone down offense a tad, buff defense and movement, balance some of the more egregious characters/moves and that's it. The Quality of Life improvements they've made since launch have all be pretty good really so its like that side of development is on point but their balancing and design philosophy is all over the place

A patch like this really makes it look like the DEVS themselves aren't entirely on the same page and they just gave us a large drink mixed with like 4 different sodas for a flavor that NOBODY likes.TMM said it best it was like half the team was pouring water on the OP offense while the other half was still dousing it with gasoline.



I really hope they turn it around somehow but it's gonna be a while regardless. This was my first real fighting game I was actually grinding and getting into and I don't wanna let it go but I really can't binge this game like I used to

Don't think I could get into any 2D fighters either so it's either this or VF 5

Re-read your own post and explain why this was a good mechanic besides "cause I liked doing it".... also landing your power crush (minus a heat engager) is still a knockdown which keeps the momentum in your favor

thats the same dude who lives by one and dones because he "doesn't want people to adapt to him"

He is an unserious player

I come from Marvel. The whole point of that game is trying to not let your opponent play. So heat is right up my alley.

Not my fault you want to work hard for points I can get easy.

 

[ItWasWritten]

I thought you said you didn’t use that move that much , now you want it back

 

[ItWasWritten]

I don’t think this game can be fixed - I know people saying not to take a serious but tekken WAS a serious game

You been in this thread talking down to players who would absolutely scrape you like horrendously

I was almost GoD last season what were you?

I'd get points easy whatever rank you was at belee dat, you just got a scrub mentality. which is fine, just admit it.

INB4 you start spazzing out telling nikkas to die.

and look at what happened to that game on a competitive level

Guess Tekken 7 will be getting more players.

Sad part is that game is also trash. just to a slightly lesser degree
