the last sf i played was sf2turbo on snes, and then i played tekken from t2->t6, now i bought sfxt....
i like the game alot, the sfchars give me trouble because of the combomechanics (links, timing, jumpinggame) but the tekkenchars feel more familiar for me because of strings and moves they use, the balance seems ok for me until now, its nothing broken to deal with
one positive point is that both, starters and better players can have fun with it from day1, you can play the game without knowing all the hard combos the onlinemodus runs very well for me, its nearly lag and bugfree

| search times pretty quick for me, that might be the sole advantage 360 has over ps3 on this game |

| Don't search with the "same" region, it only looks for people with the same country setting as yours. Use "any" region and just leave non-european lobbies. |

Oh wow no gems and 2v2 for Evo? 2v2 is fine, but the decision to have no gems this early when we haven't tested out the new DLC gems is weird. Hopefully tournaments will try out gems once the tournament patch is released, because I feel playing without gems is playing a game that was never intended in the first place. The game is balanced and designed around gems.
Either way, there is a high chance this game will still suck since gems seem like a mess along with some of the dumbest and scrubbiest assist gem mechanics. Also without gems we're playing a gimped version with excessive time outs, turtle when clock is 30 seconds and anti-hype frame traps for days like rolento's jab crap. I'm hopeful that the new gems in the next patch some how make this game good, but I doubt it. Till then, I hope players find a ways to play the game and win where it's you know... less lame.

People found out the game is ass so they left, ha. Nah but I have no problems searching in "same" region any time of the day. I can imagine any would speed up the process significantly.Last edit: 2012-03-28 17:17:33 |

I really don't believe gems would change the time out situation at all. If anything, it'd make it worse. Autoblock, if allowed, would guarantee it to be more time outs, and any power gems get offset by defense + life recovery gems. If you play the game online, where people use gems, it's still a million time outs.
2v2 is kinda lame, I might not enter at evo as a result. |

lol after running a few sets with my buddy using akuma, I didn't realize how fucking long that was until I counted from start. Didn't realize the timer was using real seconds. I attributed the ridiculous amount of timesouts to people still learning game and the tag partner's red health regenerating fast.
Might wanna learn some jin and steve now. i can kinda see why mike ross wants to swap out DOOK. But his f. RH and FP are ridiculous and can properly play footsies. AA grab is an actual AA that doesn't trade or lose in this game. |

Disagree, I think autoblock would lead to more aggressive play. That's what it's there for, to let you be aggressive without worrying. But assist gems will be banned in any case, the real discussion is about boost gems and I think those definitely make the game shorter. Speed and meter gems especially.

| The decision to ban gems is more a time issue than a game play issue. If they get 2000 people each of them choosing their gems could add 30-60s a match. That could mean the first round would have an additional 10 hours of just people choosing gems. |

Is this really the case? I didn't read the official reasoning for the changes so I wouldn't know.
The TE patch is suppose to help that with USB drive sticks with saved player configuration. Character customization is done before hand, and when you actually play you just choose your preset gem setup like an ultra in SF4. But then again there is an issue with lack of USB ports?, and I heard the proposed dial system isn't done very well. Also 2v2 format should cut down the tournament time as well, but then again what if your partner is playing another game during Evo and your team is called up? Eh, I'm pretty sure the organizers will figure it out. Maybe the TE patch solution is better in practice then we think it is when it's released next week, but it's already been ditched by Evo the tournament trend setter before it even came out lol.
Anyways, fail gem system is fail. This game has been a wreck since they announced gems and I knew balance and game quality would be compromised because of it. Instead of the gem system, it would have been better if they focused on making a good competitive standard we all play, so we don't have to treat the game like a Smash Brothers game when it comes to deciding what is tournament worthy or not. And focus on a better game flow instead of having all these time outs.. etcLast edit: 2012-03-30 11:17:47 |

gotta say,there was no game as frustrating as sfxt for me before :S
when i went WoW -> Starcraft 2 it was really hard to become diamond (only made it at the end of the beta)
but going (close to) no fighting game experience -> sfxt online is fucking shit.
its like 60% of the time i get people with >1.5k bp 30% >800 bp 10% >5k bp
now those may not be very good people to someone who played a lot of fighting games..but i can tell you as someone totally new id love to actually play players somewhat closer to my lvl more often (i.e >500 mby?)
:S
well i didnt give up sc2 back then (dont play it now anymore tho),so i wont give up sfxt -.-
edit : nvm,just switched to hugo -_-
now playing julia/hugo instead of rolento/poison and the game got somewhat easier with spamming (i love julia .. 344 dmg for overhead -> forward heavy punch (ground bounce thing) -> heavy punch -> instant throw thingy..its impossible to miss that and combo even for me :D)Last edit: 2012-04-01 01:01:46 |

Some new costume colors were released as free DLC today.
For some reason Capcom saw fit to include some eye-murdering glowing neon colors.  |

i feel like i'm the only person who really likes this game, everywhere else i go someone's complaining about it. =(
i actually really like the tekken characters. they all feel so exciting with lots of options and playstyles, whereas anybody who has played sf4 has very few adjustments to make with the sf characters, except hit them more for juggle combos. |
