A Wii exclusive would be terrible. A Wii version would be alright, though no one would play it due to friend codes.

Surprised to see so much Asuka here, you don't see that many Asukas online. She's represented more then say Wang, but Law/Lee/Lili/Bob/Mishima/Paul are all more popular.

Right now I main Asuka, looking for a 2nd char to learn. considering Wang. What I really want is a char is a good ability to punish turtlers, as Tekken is just so defensive, and Asuka isn't really good vs turtles/runaways, even if she is good at that style herself.

One thing I"m curious about- whatever happened to the Premium Edition DLC. Could Americans actually buy it on PS3?

A few series I really enjoyed over the years Zettai Karen Children Slayers Kenshin Urusei Yatsura back in the day Utena of all things Captain Tylor some others but can't remember off top of my head. the only thing I'm enjoying out of the current crop is Railgun/Index. Then again, light...

My own personal omnibus and caveat, trying to keep in general terms, because I'm not qualified enough to argue that a move should be +6 instead of +3 on hit: Also trying to make this things that could be achievable and realistic. I'm setting this in order of what I'd want most first, then...

Once you get it down, I'm sure you can spam it just as easily as a double half-circle. It would be easier for people to learn the double half-circle, yet I wouldn't say the motion is less "long". You are pretty much explaining the argument why the move notation needs to be changed with those...

That's a sign the move is too powerful, even if that must sound like heresy so some folks here. If you have to balance a move with a motion Geese Howard and Duck King would find overcomplicated, then you got a design issue. Another option would be making it a double half-circle, or a 360...

There are a few moves that are hard in VF , but many of them are at least logical. I'm ok with hard execution if it makes sense, or is necessary. I have a problem with nonsensical inputs such as SS/CS though. there's only a handful of them in SC though.

OOF, I agree with you on the mentality arguments, but that doesn't excuse design flaws. Just because you can overcome the problem, doesn't mean that you can't improve on the design. A more balanced game would also extend the game's competitive life, which would result in a higher quality of...

There's always going to be under/overpowered chars. You can't balance a game perfectly. I just want the tiers to be very slight, like in SSF4, KOF98UM (yeah I know, Krauser, but everyone else is balanced, and Krauser's beatable) or VF. As for 3 frame JF- that's good. Improved netcode/input...

VF moves are really no more complicated then SC moves. In fact, in many cases, they're less complicated. The application of said moves correctly can be a lot more complex/difficult though. VF and SC are both proof that complex controls are not needed to have depth. That doesn't mean applying...

Landing a half-circle grab with perfect timing is tough, but failing it means you'd get a pretty, but standard strength throw. One option I'd consider is lowering damage, but making the fastest input unbreakable. To me, fastest input grabs are a "fair" JF, because failing it means a suboptimal...

Sorry to quote en entire long post, but lots of relevant points. a) On SS/CS for Ivy. What I would do. Half-Circle command. I would borrow from VF5 and give a benefit for "fastest input" like what Wolf had for his Giant Swing. With the fastest input, the nerfs to the move would be removed...

Why would you want people to not use your character? What that does is makes it more likely when you play, you run into Random Mitsurigi/Kilik #435908. I want to see more Setsukas- making her unnecessarily hard hurts that. One thing we often forget in design is that it is just as important...

You can design characters that require a lot of thinking, without making them competitively weak. I'd also argue that any net positive satisfaction from tourney playing from winning with a low tier character is more then negated by people who can't compete with said character. OOF, you can...

Tekken grab system is broken- really quick players can break grabs from reaction. SC has the best break system of any 3D fighter, though VF5FS's sounds nice. One change I would make, a few chars like Rock would gain G+K grabs with a K break to make it harder to break their grabs. BTW I don't...

Using complex inputs as a means of balance is lazy design. Really, complex inputs should only be used when necessary (like to avoid move overlap) , which 99% of the time, they aren't. People like being able to use their movelists. This idea wouldn't help anything at competitive level, and...

Sometimes things do need to be nerfed. The "buff everything and everyone" mantra seems overdone these days, and probably a relic from SRK. That said, the bottom 1/2 of the cast really does need buffs. As for bringing in top players, what will bring top players in is money, at least in the US...

I'm under no illusion that we'll be able to influence the gameplay much. Hopefully I'm wrong and they'll listen. As for the DLC- I'll gladly support costume DLC, provided I can use it on all characters. As for online rank mode: here's the system I would use if I was designing a fighter. Gold...
