It's a niche thing in general, like using a keyboard on console. No one said you have to move to pad. Lighten up will ya?!

How many people use sticks for their fighting game needs? Do you really think that is a niche?
Yes it is niche because it's a peripheral generally used for one genre of gaming.
I agree it is a niche in the video game world, but in the fighting game world I think there is a higher percentage of top players in all fighting games that use stick over pad.
I agree, but console makers aren't thinking about a subset group of people when designing a console. Hence this whole debacle with people more than likely having to spend upwards of $600 for a console and stick. That price doesn't even include the game itself.
Looks perfect, I wish they release a wireless version though (with a portable USB wire, same as the PS3 one).
None exist ATM.
Sweet. I'd like to see reviews before I buy tho.
In other games , yes . Not in MK or IGAU. Just because they're easier on pad for most people . You can play fighting games on stick for another 40 years for all I care it won't make my previous statement any less correct.
I say both locked until proven otherwise. Also I mention marvel because it applies to the situation that is being discussed. Tbh I think some characters will only have one good variation anyways so then it wouldn't matter. Tbh we should vote on it.
Except once again marvel is a bad example, how is it relevant? It's not a similar system at all like Melty, Arcana, SamSho which have the variation system & it was found that the the best way to handle this was to do character lock, but able to switch variation. Another similar thing is in Smash how if you won and your opponent changes stage you can change characters. Leaving this to a vote to the community would be an awful idea, I doubt most people in the NRS community have enough experience with things like variations.
It's really not the same because the switch wasn't so sudden like it is now, and EVO is already mad expensive this year. People are looking to drop Flight/Train/Gas+Stick+Console+Venue+Entry, that shit adds up especially if you're from Midwest, East Coast, or out of country & most people aren't sponsored.
How is marvel a bad example? I ain't saying that assists are like variations or they have a similar system, but assists definitely affect matchups and what not and you have to admit that. Second thing, just because some games in the past did things in "some" way it doesn't mean MKX should. Also u bringing up smash like that is anywhere close to MKX...... Talk about a bad example lol . I have a friend in the smash scene and they only do that cuz stages actually play a huge factor, that has nothing to do with having variations tho so that is irrelevant. Now I know alpha 3 had V,A, and I think B styles and CVS2 had grooves. Does anyone know how they did things? Last but not least, why would a community vote be bad? Back in injustice we pretty much let choosing stages fly instead of doing random select and we saw what happened with that lol. But if ppl going to be butthurt about it, then aye it is whatever to me cuz I will be cool with either option, I just believe that we should see how things go first then change if necessary.
Its not really the stick complaint. Its that they switched to a new system on which the game has never been played on before. Its not even out yet and has a tentative release date of Spring 2015. It does not even have an actual release date. We don't know if it will behave the same or not. And if you are truly serious about competing, then you would want to practice on that system as to be prepared. At least thats my take.
He's talking about SFIV's PS4 release not MKX.
Oops I read that hella wrong lol I will change my post
