Topic: Fighting Games!

@bowzoid Ok, it's what I paid yesterday but I'm not sure it's ever been priced differently (and PSPrices doesn't have the SP in its database) - it definitely doesn't show up as a discount though, so I'm not sure.
It's also the same price on Steam.

cool, hopefully there will be a "special price" soon.

Btw, I love the game. Maining Faust. Hitting a plateau bouncing between floor 7/8. No matter how many beating I take, I keep coming back for me. SFV is wondering where I've gone.

Hi there fellow gamers.
Since this is a fighting game forum, I was wondering what your thoughts about NetherRealm being done creating content for Mortal Kombat 11. Do you think they are doing Injustice 3 or that rumoured Marvel vs DC fighting game? Or something else entirely?
I really enjoyed Injustice 2 characters, gameplay and story and I´m a big fan of the Injustice comics, so I reaaly want a sequel, but I don´t mind they doing something different, if that´s what the team wants.
Cheers, stay safe everyone and happy fighting gaming to us all

@RaZieLDaNtE I honestly have no idea what they're doing next. As for ending the support for MK11. I know many are disappointed because they originally made it seem like it would be supported much longer but I think it's pretty clear that they had to change plans for some reason (probably Covid). It still got a ton of content in the 2 years so I'm not mad myself

Also, there´s another fighting game coming in a few monts called Melty Blood Type Lumina based on Type-moon visual novel Tsukihime. I think this is a reboot. I never played the original one, but I watched the anime, so i know some of the characters. It looks nice though.

I admit I don’t understand the rating system in Strive. Just got too Floor 9 despite definitely having lost more than I won in Floor 8

Also how is Sol a fair character?

@Voltan MK11 does have a lot of content. A really good roster of old and new characters and quite a few guests as well, like Robocop and Rambo. Heck, they even made a story mode dlc. What more do people want? Very curious what they´ll do next. Marvel vs DC, perhaps? Ed mention something in an interview.
Who knows? This is the time for these dream matches to happen 😉

@Voltan Yeah, the ranking system is a weird one.
Sometimes it takes forever to rank up, sometimes it doesn´t.
Ranking down is a bit more precise unfortunately 😒
As for Sol..... There is nothing fair about that character.
Everytime someone wins with him, in my mind it does not count, nor is validated.
All you need is to press 5S, or the triangle button, also known as the win button for Sol 😜
But he´s not the only broken character in Strive. Not by a long shot.
We´ll see how the game will change in future updates

@RaZieLDaNtE I was demoted to 8 as expected but this time the game forgot to tell me. I only noticed it because I have the floor badge in my r-code and it changed. Weird

@RaZieLDaNtE I wouldn’t mind him having a couple crazy button (5K is another) if they didn’t lead to easy confirms into 300 dmg combos every time
Ram is another but only in the corner

@bowzoid Looks like there isn't a discount planned anytime soon

@Voltan Yeah, I was just messing around with Sol vs Ky on extreme, just for fun and getting some trophies and boy, he is ridiculous good. Now I know what the fuss hes all about. I can just press buttons and I win. It´s a good thing Sol is aparently soft banned..... At least for some players though 😜

I also ranked up in the East Coast region. Because @Omnistalgic is from there and we were having some matches in the Park there, the region stayed the same and I had no idea. Only when I decided to do some Park matches that I realised I was playing in that region 😜
And then I ranked down again....... Because of a Gio player. I know people hate May, but Giovanna is the bane of my existance 😒 Everything she does is PLUS.
And let´s not even talk about I-no, the mixup monster. I REALLY need to understand what to do against her. I have a long road ahead of me.....

@RaZieLDaNtE To me, the biggest problem with Sol is his kick that's faster than most buttons in the game, which allows him to poke out of a lot pressure, has a ridiculous hitbox and is very easily confirmed into massive combos.
Chipp basically dies just because he has gaps in his blockstrings.

On an unrelated note, this was an interesting interaction

@RaZieLDaNtE @Omnistalgic
How's the ping and rollback with such distance?

@Voltan Loooooool 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Man, Daisuke hates us Chipp players, doesn´t he?

SF2

You can keep your button mashing Mortal Kombat Krap.

@Voltan The rollback was great 👍 Not a single drop while I was fighting @Omnistalgic, nor when I was fighting other East Coast players. At least for me that is

Welp, got demoted back to 8 after exactly one match today lol

Edit: aaaand down to 7 and I still don’t get how the rating works

Edit 2: back to 8 15 minutes later

@Voltan not bad at all...we have pretty solid matches...let me know when you wanna get some sets in.
