O.o good god man listen to yourself.

Yes, this is what rational people who understand video games sound like, it must be shocking to hear it for once.

So it seems this is SFxT's dominant metagame for the foreseeable future:

-Jabs
-Fuzzy Guards
-Time Outs
-Hugo

The game's a week old, give it some time... time outs is a definite thing though.

Time outs? Seriously? Only one character needs to die to end a round right?

It takes about half the match for both point characters to lose half their life bar; people usually tag them out to the background where they regain a decent chunk of health and there isn't always time to kill the second character and clean up the first guy before the 99 seconds is up.

Yes, but supers for the most part eat up nearly ten seconds especially cross arts, the game has ridiculous fucking damage scaling making extended combos practically worthless, and the game is slow.

Yeah, the damage scaling is something I don't understand for a game like this. I was expecting scaling somewhere between SF4's and Marvel's but I guess the dev team wanted otherwise.

do you have a ps3?

Character pack will be $20, and the characters will not be sold separately. Costumes will be $1 each or two $13 packs for all of them. Then there's some free colour and gem packs.

That's actually pretty good pricing for twelve characters and shitloads of costumes. I have to wonder though if DLC characters costumes are coming with the characters or separately though, they added them to Jill and Shuma if you owned them for UMVC3, so I have to believe they'll at least include the swap costumes for the DLC characters.

If the Vita version has all the costumes and colours and stuff I might pick it up.

This looked like a game for casuals so i think the damage scaling is a good thing, it's nice there's street fighter games for all ranges of players.

Has anyone fought against the hacked DLC characters yet? I think I fought like 10 Cody + Guy players and they were all exceptionally bad.

Not yet, but I'm on the PS3 so it's quite possible that that may be the reason.

So some disgruntled fans filed complaints to the Better Business Bureau about the DLC and Capcom essentially said that "There's enough content in the game on its own, stop getting on our tits."

Already took the game back. My brother may get the PS3 version so we can couch co op, but I obviously couldn't do it. Its not like I was ever really going to get in on it anyway, I always hated SF4. But im done complaining. No reason to anymore.

Buying the Vita version unlocks all the characters in the PS3 version, and there's online play between both systems. Depending on the price (no way I'm playing £40) I might get this on Vita when it comes out.

i'm having a hard time getting into this

Don't bother; interest in it is dropping like a fucking rock.

i have no intention of playing online anyway, plus my friend got it for 8 dollars
