How good are you at Fighting Games
>>341833545
I got 17th at EVO for marvel
>>341833789
what year
Very bad, but I enjoy them. Particularly Guilty Gear.
Good enough to dumpster friends.
Terrible enough to never win online
I play a beast Oni in USF4. Not online tho. FiOS is shit.
>>341833545
i don't play fighting geams
>>341834901
>you will never fuck a cute chubby japanese girl
>>341833545
I'm decent at Super Smash Bros. Melee.
Not great, I'm ok.
>inb4 not a fighting game
I really don't care about elitist faggotry.
>>341834901
this 2bh lads
Why couldn't we fight Apocalypse like this. Why did we have to fight a giant version of him
I'm terrible but I'm learning to git gud
>>341835727
However the game is over.
i'm a bad bad man.
If I wanted to get into fighting games, what are some ones I should try? Old, new, whatever.
>>341836442
You should play games that are based in fundamentals, like the Street fighter games. You should probably play the latest one, Street fighter 5, but if you don't want to commit or are poor, you could play Super Turbo or Third strike on fightcade.
I would recommend playing with a friend who is also new and gives a shit. It's easier to learn together.
>>341836442
Get Fightcade and mess around in KoF or the older Street Fighters. What game you end up playing depends on what you like from the genre
>>341836442
Street Fighter II' Turbo is a good place to start just note that the CPU in that game is tough as balls so you'll need a buddy who can train with you.
Last time I played a fighting game against another human being was 10 years ago.
I was and still am terrible at them.
>>341836442
Just get the new Guilty Gear.
I can body a lot of my friends at most fighting games, I lose most of my matches online.
>tfw plateau
>>341833545
Top ten Elena player on 3rd Strike.
>>341836442
Skullgirls is pretty good
>great in-game tutorial
>cheap
>runs on potatoes
>>341836442
Blazblue Continuum Shift has an excellent tutorial that teaches you the basics as well as in depth mechanics. Its pretty retard proof imo
>>341836442
Marvel vs Capcom 3 is alot of fun. Alot of people will tell you it's a broken mess though and it kinda is but you really only see that once you get good at the game and all the nonsense starts.
Otherwise it's pretty easy to play and you can do kinda flashy combos without too much execution.
>>341837113
>>341833545
Why don't they make games that look that good anymore?
>>341836329
You FOOL!
I've been Evo champion in 4 different games.No, I haven't. I suck at fightans.
>>341837512
Time and Punishment

>>341837620
YOU DARE RISE AGAINST ME? The human era is over. The mutant era has come.
XCOTA had so much effort put in to it than the others but however the gameplay is very dated compared to them.
Like this Avalon stage is THE best.
>>341836442
I second playing Street Fighter. But you also want to try other subgenres. At least try an animu game, like GG or BlazBlue, and try a 3D one, like Tekken. Each will teach you different stuff.
Marvel Super Heroes was good too, I just wonder why didn't they do games for DC.
Since AvsP hinted at a Batman game.
>>341837512
3D is easier and cheaper
>>341836442
Street Fighter 5 is pretty much the only option you have.
everything else has an extremely small playerbase which is almost entirely comprised of experienced veterans (this applies to old arcade fighters on fightcade in particular). catching up with that is going to be pretty much impossible for a newbie to the genre. only SF5 has a decent online mode, and enough population to always find matches within a few minutes at most.
also SF5 has several mechanics that make it much easier to learn than most other fighters, like the lenient input buffering period.
>>341838051
>>341838098
>Mortal Kombat
>MvC
>Killer Instinct
>muh street fighter
wew lad
>>341836442
SFV is the only game with a playerbase that starts with beginner. You won't learn/enjoy fighting games if you only go up against people who have played for hundreds of hours. Get SFV, do the tutorials and then jump online.
>>341837620
>>341837712
>>341837853
Why did they not keep swole Magneto in UMVC3?
>>341838316
>Mortal Kombat
>>MvC
>>Killer Instinct
All trash or dead.
>>341838430
Is he not swole in UMVC3?
>>341836442
Don't listen to this Capcom shill
>>341838098
>only SF5 has a decent online mode,
SF5 online is DOGSHIT

Skullgirls is less than half its price and has a great tutorial to introduce you to all fighting games
If you don't like it enough, you can just refund it all because it's steam.
>>341838432
>all trash or dead
congratulations on your opinion based argument, I have been fully convinced that SF is the only fighting game worth anyone's time.
is it true that third strike and vampire savior didn't do good when it came out?
>bobby i have something to tell you
>>341838536
He still looks good but he doesn't look as big as his sprites did most noticeably in the arms
>>341838801
for shame.
>>341837069
what's your name so i can google you
Killer Instinct is so tight. Fuck.
I suck at fighting games. the only ones I'm kind of good at are Smash Bros and MK9. I also don't like most fighting games so its no big deal
I'm that guy who trounces everyone who is casual, but doesn't have the discipline/skill to beat anyone serious.
3500points in SF5.
>>341837853
It also had his best theme.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-MrRqivXJ8s
>>341838645
Yes for Street Fighter 3 in general. People didn't recognize any of the new characters after so many games that reused the SF2 cast and since each version introduced a new mechanic the skill floor was raised to a point that new players would get stomped to the point of quitting.
Can't say for Vampire tho.
Spiral was never seen again.
>>341836442
wait for Skullgirls on steam to have another sale
it happened in the middle of June last year and the full game with all dlc was like 5 bucks or something like that
I beat Valle's Ryu at 3rd strike online. Then he switched to Twelve and reked me
>>341839225
She was in MvC2.Everyone was in MvC2
>>341839161
Glad someone agrees
such a shame they didn't remix it in UMVC3 but I guess it wouldn't fit because the song feels more like a "final boss" type of thing.
>>341839235
Skull girls fucking sucks. I hate you fucking retards who always recommend it.
A good fighting game has at least some semblance of fundamentals, not a bunch of infinite combos and shit from other fighting games mashed together into one.
Skull girls has insanely. Long combos of guilty gear plus the tag system from King of fighters and marvel. Every normal chains into every normal. The developers had no idea what to balance or what the fuck to do.
But because it has a unique art style, waifus, and a text dump of a tutorial, you all think it's so great when it's not. It's fucking garbage.
>>341839434
I thought she was replaced by that short haired ginger lady with the bones.
I've been trying to run fightcade, and everything seemed to install fine. Trouble is that I can't get any of the games I downloaded to work.
What am I doing wrong?
>>341839467
I thought the one they remixed was the least of his themes but I feel like they remixed it well, which I guess is better than taking a good theme and making it shit *cough* Hsien-Ko *cough*
Also make sure you don't lose your head while figuring out how to play fighting games
it can be very frustrating
Pretty good compared to everyone i know. Not that good at co petition level
I got high at Magfest last year and completely swept at Killer Instinct the first time I ever tried it. I dunno what to take from that.
>>341836442
MKX is super fun, don't let Capcucks tell you otherwise. It's a super fast paced combo-heavy mess, but if you're on PC i would suggest getting MK9 instead, and i'd totally play with you.
I've heard good things about Killer Instinct, haven't played much but it boils down to a huge mindgame-fest where you're looking for reads and opportunities to chain heavy combos and resets.
Street Fighter is probably the best game to get into if you want to learn the fundamentals of 6-button fighters, SF5 is super fun and the speed is a nice boost from USF4.
Even though they aren't technically fighting games either, smash has a huge competitive scene that is super fun to get into. If you're more into a patient game i suggest playing sm4sh, but if you're more into a combo heavy fighter you should definitely try Melee. They're both wonderfully polished games and have some of the most open and great communities out there, not to mention they're some of the easiest games to get into.
That's all the fighting games I know, but each are worth their salt in terms of fighting games. Capcucks that tell you anything not SF is trash aren't worth your time, experiment and find a game that's right for you.
>>341839602
The games have to be in the roms folder, zipped and with the same name they had when you downloaded them.
this fight was just another tuesday for Bison.
>>341839694
How badly did you want an excuse to use that picture with that pun?
>>341839869
Y'know, I just grabbed an image off the internet and circled her on the character select and just now noticed that she's on the 1P team.
>>341839932
not very badly.
>>341839498
first of all, nice grammar you fucking retard
>at least some semblance of fundamentals
how does it not have fundamentals?
>not a bunch of infinite combos
it's not 2012 anymore
>complaining about the tag system
???
what's not to like about team building?
you can also just play solo characters too you retard
>Every normal chains into every normal
was this too complicated for your tiny little brain too?
>The developers had no idea what to balance
MikeZ knows how to balance

>Or Enya

>Or the other like 6 characters in the data that we will never know, one of which was likely Jonathan
Absolute tragedy
>this desperate Skullgirls shill recommending his dead kusoge
>>341840115
MikeZ, nobody cares about this shitty game. It sucks as a fighting game. It's literally just combo memory game. You won't learn shit playing fighting games with Skullgirls. Just lengthy combos.
>>341840310
>skullgirls is kusoge
explain
Does that mean it falls in the same list as Senran Kagura and Neptunia?
>>341833545
i can combo an attack into a special, but generally im rubbish
>>341840418
>implying MikeZ has any time to post on 4chan when he's too busy making another game
Retards like you are the reason why he's fucking off to making ARPGs

>>341840708
How is life at LabZero aka SJW sellout dev house.
>>341840708
Oh no we won't be getting another Marvel clone with infinite combos for autists to practice. MikeZ knows technical shit but he can't design games at all.
