3 Things you LOVE and HATE about most 2D fighting games.

There's nothing wrong with counter picking. The ability to learn new characters to respond to matchups is often considered a sign of an intelligent player. The ability to pick a character based on the tools they have and not for superficial reasons, is a sign of a mature player.
 
Going to repeat that GGPO is the ONLY way to make a fighter with online play. It is cheap to liscence and hands down the best fighting game netcode out there. We are all consistently baffled that Capcom won't use it in there AAA fighters, instead opting for some awful in-house netcode that lets us down time and time again..

SFxT netcode was decent before the sound fix. Almost as good as GGPO (not surprising since it used rollbacks just like GGPO).
 
wow you guys are pretty solid on what you want!

Im going to need to contact you guys as the game develops to get your opinion! Not sure if you can do game testing online, im new to this!

Not a programmer just a visionary. :)

This is great stuff tho!!!

-Short and sweet combos. Leave the 30-second combos to Mahvel and keep it quick.
-Variety. Older fighters gets away with clones because of their age. Do what ASW did and start with a small-but-diverse cast, then expand slowly.
-Simple mechanics. Don't flood the game with a bunch of ridiculous mechanics that are all integral to doing something other than running in and kicking them in the teeth (Looking at you, P4A).

Dislikes
-BROKEN mechanics. This mostly plagues anime fighters (NUNS's substitution, DBZ:BT's size system), but if you build in mechanics that force a very specific style of play on the whole cast, no one's going to like you.
-Charge characters. A personal hatred of mine. I just loathe the input.
-Bad audio. I do still listen to fighting games, so make sure the SFX, music, and voices (if there) fit the setting.
