The Official Street Fighter 6 thread! We Open world fighting now?!

They found the most non-Black sounding Black woman to voice Kimberly. They said all that shyt about trying to make her a legit Black American, and failed at many points

 

[feelosofer]

Just started playing, Dhalsim in this game is kinda

Like he is a sleeper.

 

[Deafheaven]

I mean yeah the game is scrubby. but there hasn't been a non scrubby fg made since like what, Unist? And even that game had some hilarious mechanics.

they gon keep playing it regardless so its just bytching. This big goof been practicing the crack for a year just won a major blocking like 3 times with Blanka, loses a couple online shyts NOOWWWW the game is scrubby? the shyt been scrubby you rotund ass dominican.

 

[Khalil's_Black_Excellence]

What about DI don’t you think that should cost more ?

Nope.

 

[Batsute]

Who are these try hard fakkits who willingly play at 300+ ms ping. If you see the fukkin request accept it .

And before you come in calling out my WiFi connection, eat a dikk. I’m on a 5Ghz 2GB/s router, so unless you gonna move my furniture and give me a 50ft Ethernet cord, shut up.

 

[7th Letter Specialist]

It's better than the usual generic MIDI crap, but compared to 2, 3, and CVS it's garbage. They should have went the 2K route and got actual known people on the game.

Nah, this soundtrack is actually pretty fire. Everybody just grew up on the older shyt so it sticks harder. The music is better w/o artists/words plus you would have liscening issues in the future, not to mention it would sound dated after a while.

 

[TripleAgent]

What does scrubby mean breh?

You got a definition?

The skill/execution barrier is blurred unnecessarily by goofy ass mechanics.

Modern is cancer, despite the 20% damage penalty
DR is undercosted
It's arguable that raw DR is a bad thing. I say arguable because I play the slow character and it helps, but it makes the already fast characters retarded.
The defensive option is overcosted. I personally think a nice push block mechanic that costs maybe .5 DR bar may solve a lot of this.
Oki/throw loops with way too much of the cast. If it was everyone, okay, but then Zangief, Marisa and Manon would kill all the casuals off in a week.
OKI OFF CA WITH NO DR METER NEEDED. WTF?
3S style "frame traps" where if you hit a button during a string you eat the rest of the combo, but no 3S style red parry

You say people wanted this offense centric anime style bullshyt. I don't keep up with it so I'll take your word for it, but Capcom over leaned in that direction.

 

[Deafheaven]

I fukkin called it Nikkas didn't even last a month now it's "I miss SF5" day on Twitter

Fighting game players don't know what the fukk they want every time nikkas complain Capcom gives them exactly what they want and they still get mad FGC nikkas are like women never knowing what they want for dinner

I think Drive Rush is a great mechanic, and if you don't like it I won't try to convince you to. But conflating "it eats inputs" with complaints about the mechanic in relation to the meta is disingenuous.

The fact that it eats inputs is fukked up and definitely a mistake that Capcom is gonna patch out, but after they do you still won't like the mechanic. Do you see why it's an issue to conflate the two?

On another note the fgc needs an intervention on the definition of neutral, footsies and "fundamentals". Nikkas just say the shyt but it never actually means anything outside of "I got hit when I didn't want to" These terms mean whatever nikkas want it to mean based on their favorite game and a mental stack they don't want to abandon to learn something new

Your "neutral" and "fundamentals" is not a real thing

Neutral and fundamentals are definitely real things, they just vary from game to game.

 

[TripleAgent]

You know a Black woman that sounds like Kimberley? I don't. Capcom talked at LENGTH about how they tried to capture the "culture" with her, and she makes no sense in that manner. As a Hip-Hop head, I appreciate the graffiti, but everything else seems like what a cac Japanese person THINKS Black people are like instead of just consulting Black people.

Nah, this soundtrack is actually pretty fire. Everybody just grew up on the older shyt so it sticks harder. The music is better w/o artists/words plus you would have liscening issues in the future, not to mention it would sound dated after a while.

There are no licensing issues, you sign away the rights, the game uses the tracks. You can still buy 2Kwhateveryear and the tracks are on there.

3S music doesn't sound dated. Including the raps. You just have to go about it the right way.

DR is whatever it can be adjusted to be fine. DI I will stand by is one of the worst mechanics I've seen in a minute because it doesn't really add much except bum bashing/testing and also making it so that you use your uncancellable footsie buttons less. the fact you can press like crouching strong or some shyt, the opp guesses DI and then you take like 5.5k for it is just piss poor to me.

beyond that only really glaring things to me are
1.throw loops, take that shyt out or make it so you have to have very specific setups/meter for it.
2. Marisa. thats it. the whole fukking character
3. the amount of fukk it go long ass plays, like Honda headbutt being -4 at WORST
4. Some people DR being jump scares

And no this isn't salt, I could have been in master with JP (my win rate with that nikka like 78% or some shyt) if I didn't stop playing him to pick up Juri (who I will hit masters with since shes more fun) but apologists acting like this the perfect game. its not. it can still be enjoyable. I think danger time the stupidest shyt ever. XRD still one of my goats

 

[Deafheaven]

I also don't think they'll remove DR eating inputs. They probably intended for the defining mechanic of the game to be prevalent and hard to punish.

I forgot DI, which is also shyt, but everyone swore I was just whining or whatever. You explained it perfectly. You have to use LESS buttons instead of MORE, which is ass backwards because your bum ass opponent can get some ridiculous 50% combo because you used a good button that doesn't special cancel. That discourages footsies and good play and encourages people doing the same shyt ad nauseum.

I dead ass will start some matches doing drive rush --- to bullshyt with Juri because why not worst thing that can happen is we trade probably.

shyt is comically strong.

I really dislike DI though, they really got it mixed up with it and perfect parry. Why the fukk is a pp combo scaled that hard and not DI. Hell, make both of em scale to hell. You shouldnt be getting round ending damage off that. Make a harder read, wiff punish, react super. something.


Also every fukking fighting game has some thing that is "scrubby" every single one. So to act like this one is absolved from that, especially in 2023 when fgs are generally more catered towards the casuals is hilarious.

 

[Jasonmask]

I’ll explain what I can about the scrubby aspect of this game. DR is a gimmick for nikkas that can’t handle fundamental footsies but DI low key takes some skill ngl. The parry system is too easy. You shouldn’t be able to parry a whole super just by holding a button, that’s why I still feel like 3rd strike the best but this is like 3rd best SF so it’s not like I don’t like it but I do get annoyed dealing w players who just DR crazy and that’s their whole strategy. I one and done those people

Forgot this, too. 3S parry system is 10x more skillful. I get not having air parry (too hardcore, casuals and Modern scrubs would have nothing coming when your instant DP is unsafe to spam), but holding two buttons and parrying a super with no penalty is wild. Manual parries could have no DR penalty, and holding could drain regardless.
