SDCC SoulCalibur Talk Summary

Why is she so powerful in SCIV?

Doom combo

The elaborate: the bug that causes save file corruption is known by some as the time-bomb glitch, which is explained 4:10 into this video.

Doom combo

Well, I thought these videos would make me somewhat happy, but they didn't, the first one actually made me angrier. If I had known what caused the bug, I would have been able to avoid it in the billions of times it fucked my playthrough. Also... I can't play Hilde for shit.

Funny enough, I never ran into the SCIII bug. That's probably part of the reason why I'm still so fond of it.

Doom combo

Heh, oh man. That second C2 BB after the C3 A of that combo shouldn't have even re-launched the opponent. That one's on the programmers' fault. It should have just made the opponent just roll further across the ground or something; hence no ring-out from that distance at the start of the combo.
Shit can be the same move OR a different move but with the same STUN EFFECT, the combo guarantee should already cease from there.

Wrong, horribly wrong, I must say. Or do you really think that Story Mode was not something hyped for in a game like Mortal Kombat X, for example? Street Fighter managed to survive without that for a while, but even Capcom noticed they cannot survive without a Story focus (despite the fact that SFV is also an unfinished mess, it doesn't even have an Arcade Mode). This thing of "fighting game doesn't need a story" isn't true, big fighting games are already moving to work on their stories because that is good, that sells. Also, the devs DID have a choice, I wouldn't have minded and neither would have the community if the game was delayed for a much better result. A game without content is bad and gameplay doesn't save anyone because gameplay is not a feature.

Please stop posting before a dev comes to this site and mistakes something you say for a good idea.
