It's a good game, /v/ is just busy shitting on SFV right now.

Season 3 of a 2013 game just came out. There's a difference.

It requires Windows 10 which means I likely won't play it for awhile.

Can I disable all the bullshit Windows 10 telemetry and reporting to Microsoft shit or is that permanently built in to spy on my every move like /g/ said all along?

>>333845342
Season 3 launched too close to other good shit coming out, I bought the new set of characters and they're all pretty great, the new environment details really make the game pop too. Are they patching in a story mode for the new characters? I don't play online so that content is kind of important to me.

Season 3 story mode will probably come when the 8th character gets released. We're also getting that new Shadow Lords mode, whatever that is.

I always had faith and I never have faith for microshit's endeavors. You could see from the first Saberwulf gameplay that there was love and effort put in it.

They are using it as bait for win7 fags

A lot of win10 avoiders are gamers, because of compatibility issues and old direct x libraries not working on 10

>>333850493
DESU, season 1 was honestly not very good. People look at it with rose-tinted glasses because it was a new KI, but it launched unbalanced as all fuck, with only 6 characters, and no single player modes.

Really, the game was always "That game that'll never live up to it's potential" until Iron Galaxy got ahold of it. Now it's fucking great.

Also ii'm so glad that he's actually as tall as he should be in KI and that he towers over most of the cast, most people have no clue how huge elites are since FPS games fuck with perspective and MC is 7 feet tall.

As somebody else who mainly plays skullgirls but can't fucking understand KI, do you mind explaining some of it to me from that perspective
>>
>>333851995
Depends on what you want, really. Sabrewulf is a well-rounded beginner character. Rash is a good beginner-friendly character, and will teach you a lot about air juggles. Thunder is good for people who prefer grapplers.

If you're coming from SG, you might like Sadira. She has a heavy focus on air combos, which is a bit different from Rash's juggles, since they mostly rely on him being on the ground.
>>
>>333852009
I loved in ODST how huge everyone looked, I appreciate a sense of scale in game for sure.

I do love how big arbiter is in KI, he makes Saberwulf look tiny.
>>
>>333850908
The final character of Season 3 is going to be Eyedol, it has to be.
>>
>>333852203
Never considered a lamia as the final character, but I kinda want it now.
>>
>>333853130
that's fake anon
>>
>>333852257
Before I knew how to do combos KI, I would watch and say 'wow thats fast'
But actually its a way more simple combo system, since you can control the speed and properties of your combo.

Imagine doing a Filia's hairball, you hit and press a button (m.punch)

Filia after finishing her hairball will proceed to do two m.punches

While she is still doing her two punches, you 'link' it, basically meaning you do another special move, like another hairball

After the 'link', you can press another button like h.kick

During the h.kick you might say, 'hey I want to cash in from this combo' and do a finishing move like ringlet spike OR I wanna extend my combo with another hairball
Now there are several mechanics that I didnt mention like how your opponent can guess the strength of your button press and break the combo or how some characters don't even have to link

I had a friend over who also played skullgirls and SF before and we had a genuinely fun time
>>
Wait, KI is out on PC?

You know I'm surprised how little people were actually playing Arbiter. I played it launch of season 3 and was surprised I didn't face my first other Arbiter until a few days after. He seemed like one of those characters lot of casuals would play, especially since KI is a xbox console exclusive

He's like Cinder. Mash friendly but you get nothing out of it since he does so much low damage to compensate for his reach and pokes being godlike (The only characters with better are Kim-Wu's air D+HP and Hisako's everything) and having bad defense. His game plan is based around resets, opening opportunities and constantly putting the opponent on the back heel with his teleport. Carbine is guaranteed damage and tagging a sticky already opens them for setups. Especially since teleport is unblockable and you can tag them with a sticky after.

Not an easy character to play but he's so good at pissing people off when you know how to play him, just like Cinder

I have combo assist enabled for now, and even when I dont get broken I usually only end up with like 15-20% damage, vs the people Im against doing 30% minimum

No one's figured wrecking ball is punishable with a shadow counter (For a safe option) or just block and punish. Also avoid his ball/tounge vortex. Everything he does has huge start up as well.

Fundamentally its a lot like Street Fighter stuff.
Only the combo system is completely different as it pretty much allows the other player to break out of combos which leads to some extra mindgames.

Personally I'm no fan of that combo system, but the game is alright.

he shouldn't have to buy it

we install win10 kicking and screaming, in return you give us the FULL game

I disagree. The movement is much quicker in SFV. Jumping and walking is much faster.
