There might be some hope this time around then. I was always upset to see the kind of treatment that characters got in 2, but that's largely because they were almost direct transfers from other games (sprites and all). So it'll be pleasant to see something fresh from old characters, if they do...

That's what I kind of meant though. The "Super" versions don't feel super, they just feel like Shoto + Beam Cannon. I was pointing out that they could take it a step farther and actually put them in competition with the "higher tier" characters.

This. But on top of that I'd wish they'd see the potential in a complete overhaul of a character just for the concept of MvC3. Just as an example, take Akuma from SF. You could take the fact that he's the obvious powerhouse (plot-wise) of the series and actually change his moveset a little to...

I go to a thing twice a month now for my fix, but other than that the community is largely unfocused. The reason we seem to have such a large community is probably because of Evo, which really has become a huge Capcom tournament. The thing I go to actually got me interested in 8wayrun again...

That's what I've been starting to think. I enjoy SC so much for the play style behind it, which is probably why I avoid SF so much nowadays since it's just endless frame perfect combos and block strings. Oh well, time to find a way to get good practice out of the AI then.

I tried to pull up some stuff here for him when he was here, took the time to explain some terminology to him, and he was even offered a copy of the game to take home and practice with. He doesn't seem so into learning as he thinks he is and it feels like he just wants that instant...

Well, that went over about as poorly as I'd hoped. Friend A, the usually sporting one, played with me for 3 hours. The summary of which would be him getting sore for losing (while playing at a 200% health advantage) and trying to call me frustrated whenever he won (which was a staggering 2...

So I called him on it. He brought up how he didn't want to play anymore SC around me and wound up getting told to not even bring his own fighting games over if that was the case. He caved 5 seconds later and said he'd practice a little before coming over. So I guess that went well. Time to...

Thanks much for the advice guys. We were all getting together later today and I didn't want to go blindly telling him off for being a punk without getting at least a second opinion. But if it's the way it has to be to get him to stop being such a kid about it all, then that's what I'll do...

You totally called it here. His tension sucks up the mood and ruins the environment. He is my friend as well, and we used to have sporting fun at fighting games. However, after I realized his attitude towards losing I stopped playing anything competitive since it was going to kill our...

I haven't been around here in a long time, but I haven't had a reason to be until lately. So I figured I'd bring something up for some discussion, maybe ask for some help here. Recently I've been part of an active group of SC players, which has been amazing to say the least, so I've been back...
