I think having concerns and freaking out like some of the people here are different things, but yeah I get ya. But at the same time I doubt they take too much into consideration of what we think cuz obviously we don't know match ups and frame data
I'm not whining, there's a difference between whining and giving feedback which most of this community just cant distinguish for some reason so genuine posts get written off as screaming and crying when that's not the case.
If we keep saying "they can't balance for shit, let's handle it for them" how the fuck are they supposed to learn? I can distinguish whining from legit concerns, and right now there's more whine than concern happening in this thread.
It doesn't matter what we say anyway they're still gonna do what they think is best. They've had 6 years competitive fighting game experience, competitors to compare their games to and so much community feedback it's nuts. Why don't you answer that question, how are they supposed to learn? Cause I have no idea.
I disagree, like @The_Tile said, NRS's track record isn't good when it comes to these things. These are the same people that thought Giving scorpion (who already had an insanely good j3 and backdash) a teleport that ignores the fundamentals of the game was a good idea. The lets wait and hope approach doesn't work with them most of the time.
she did have one. This is nothing new.
So why is the tele a problem now lmao
Cause people are stupid and forgot. Or didn't see players posting about it on twitter. Yes it was a high and an OH in the beta as well.
But they really can't balance for shit, dude. Let's be serious. Hopefully they continue to learn and improve, but from what we've seen, they just do whatever the Hell they want and pretty much tell us to deal with it.
SF4 did not last 8 years. It lasted two, then was replaced by Super, then AE (which was FUCKED balance wise) and finally died as Ultra. Each one required a $15-$40 rebuy in by the ENTIRE community.
Balancing a game is really hard. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. Realistically we should learn to deal with some of the stuff on our own. Let the meta evolve and see if anything changes. If you have the same results 3 tournaments in a row basically then at that point you need to consider okay ya this is bad. But if you have a top 8 of 8 different characters thats very good. Even if the people are the same those 3 events if the characters are different thats pretty decent. Its better than seeing a top 8 of the same character.
The meta never really having a chance to evolve is probably why their balancing capabilities aren't the greatest. People cry foul before the meta is fully established and patches get thrown out like candy.
It doesn't help that they probably have a time frame in which they have to patch stuff before they cannot anymore. They have other projects to work on. Unlike capcom who is investing a lot into SF5 and have a group just to work on that. When they buff and nerf a character it may seem like a good idea and if they test it, it may seem to work. But they cannot always log in infinite time with a character. Like the B1 change to mileena. She is still a strong character even without it. Jasons buffs where too much cause they probably didn't realize how strong a -2 d1 would be at the time. Things like that. Also some characters just have horrible designs at the start and cannot be fixed no matter how many buffs/fixes they get. Not every character can be a winner and people need to understand that.
Well, then mkx died when mkxl came out, right? Mkxl could be seen as Super mkx.
How though? The already confirmed returning characters(Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Harley, Aquaman) are similar to their Injustice 1 versions. The Flash is also confirmed and even though we haven't seen any gameplay of him yet I'd imagine he's in the same boat. And there's gonna be WAY more returning characters yet to be revealed who will like that too. So we have about half the cast who are gonna be more or less the same as the game everyones been jizzing about.
Oh for fucks sake NRS
Nice crosseyes on WoWo
As bad as what? What have we seen that can be considered bad? A 2min trailer on one character? It takes more than that to deem anything bad. What if all her specials and strings were -45 on block and -65 on whiff? Every single one. Would she be top tier? The new standard of dumb characters? No one knows anything but are making all these assumptions like "S Tier broken omg" and "this game is gonna be so broke". It's even worse this time around than pre-MKX and we haven't even gotten close yet. Your constructive criticism posts will be lost in a see of endless whining.
