Exactly. Don't pay him no mind. He's being contrarian cuz he's goofy as fukk. At best, he's talking from an intermediate level of "dominance" which even still, due to the balance of the game, it's never really that lopsided either. He either don't realize or acting purely stupid to think that just cuz a game has some dominant/strong characters that the game can't be balanced. He needs a kufi slapping fr.

For better or worse, SFV has BEEN KNOWN to be the most balanced fighter out there and possibly ever, for the exact reasons you stated. Everyone that follows the game or FGC/fighting games in general have long known this. Some don't like it for that reason (not to say exclusively due to that reason) cuz some goofy FGCers either don't know what they really want or actually really want broken ass characters in their fighting games and that's one reason some didn't/don't like V is cuz there's not really any of that.
SF5 being balanced throughout its life is hilariously not true.

Not at the highest level and not at the intermediate level.

Was it season 1 with Chun and instant air legs or necalli and Mika, maybe it was was when ibuki dropped, then akuma, and the newly buffed guile or maybe it was 2017 when Abigail and menant dropped and ran shop for about 6 months or so until G dropped? Around 2019 where we had little to no dlc and they started nerfing and buffing characters the game started to balance out. All the while cammy and karins are running wild...

I can go on but over all after 2019 is when the game started to balance out some, but even then until the addition of v shift the balance wasn't good just serviceable

I don't agree with everything you've said, but you raised some interesting points. Let's see how SF6 turns out, you might be right about FG players getting smarter across the board. :salute:

Edit: We got Just Frame Booms.


Luke also says "Perfect!" on that knuckle special he got on some footage, I guess this is not going to be exclusive to Guile.

I knew I wasn't trippin' when the trailer first showed it. That's dope and it opens up new just frame combos, shyt they're really gonna make me lab Dee Jay again :damn:

Im curious on how those perfect moves change the characteristics of said move. Hopefully it just increases your damage and not change how your opponent reacts to the move which then screws up your combo timing.

If that Twitter vid is anything to go off of, perfect moves may open up new combo routes that regular specials can't do.

In the vid, it looked like he did stand mp into perfect boom then crouch no into flash kick.

So I wonder how they gonna do the world tour. Are they gonna let us create a fighter or have pre made ones w/ different styles whose moveset you build up? Curious, because it seems like they their take time to balance the characters to prevent them being OP. I could just see us abusing that if we had full reign

....Akuma styled fighter w/ all the perks plus way more health...just tryna figure that out

Hopefully they only add possibilities not change what you need to do to complete the normal combo. Let’s be honest, most people aren’t going to pull those off reliably so it would be fukked up to do one on accident and it causes you to drop one of your staple combos.

That's exactly what it does. It just allows you to link into more stuff. It also does additional damage

Just frame booms sound like a terrible idea. If you ever played Karin in SFV online, you should immediately figure out why.

Besides, is it even necessary for a character like Guile?

It all depends how it’s executed and how stringent input is. 09ers have been bytching for years about execution, and now they have it. As long as they can’t plink it or find a shortcut The onus is on them to maintain that level of consistency.

Plus I think you are seriously underestimating that OD gauge, you can literally respond anyway you please.

Well if your a tournament player you'll be playing offline anyway.

SF players have been wanting to bring execution back to the series for a long time now, they have been saying the game has been dumbed down enough, and frankly I agree

And regarding that Guile comment, I think so, considering that he's a character that is charge and only has 2 moves, every other character gets shiny new moves, you might as well give him other utilities to make up for that

Watched this video yesterday about the new mechanics in the game. I got SF5 but I didn't play it too much because it just felt off.



I'm looking forward to SF6 though. Probably cop day 1 with a new fight stick.

looks awesome

by the way, random question, would Guile vote for Trump:patrice:he obviously seems like he would be republican/conservative but he also seems like he has integrity and wouldn't vote for a scumbag like him
Guile gets a pass cause he's rocking a flat top :flabbynsick:

a drunken master not drinking liqor? shun di would body this man

He on that lean.

We got Just Frame Booms.

This game getting better the more I learn. Can't fukking wait man.

Man it's kinda funny watching people on resetera argue about the controls for the game and getting mad that tthey can't do just frame shyt or having to do motion controls.

There games out there that literally give them the shyt they want but they don't wanna play those or quit when they hit a wall and shyt.

shyt is funny.
