is there a NLBC tonight?

Robert of Zeboyd Games (Cosmic Star Heroine) posted some thoughts about the MOBA market that seem (to be at least) to be equally applicable to fighting games. Thought I'd share them here.

It's probably nothing that hasn't been discussed before, but it was new to me, so.

@werezompire 6m
Like MMORPGs, I think the design of MOBAs naturally pushes towards market domination by a handful of games and failure for everybody else...

@werezompire 4m
...specifically, a large part of mastering a MOBA is game-specific & doesn't transfer (learning individual characters & matchups).

Edit: and right after that he adds something about fighting games. I quibble with the terms ("twitch") but generally agree.

@werezompire 3m
The fighting game genre is a mix. Basic twitch skills & strategy transfers between games, but also a lot of game-specific stuff to learn.

Anything that has Rachel on it works if anyone is able to, or even F/SN Rin. I won't be too picky about it if anyone is able to.

What's your budget?

 

[xCobalt]

From the new CPT article:

The next day on Saturday 7/12, Capcom will be hosting a special panel at EVO titled the “World of Street Fighter” from 4~5pm PDT. While this won’t be streamed, expect the news and updates about USFIV and the CPT to make waves very quickly!

 

[Rhapsody]

What's your budget?

Budget really isn't an issue for me tbh. Anything works unless it's ridiculously high.

Buy him a copy of Fate/Unlimited Codes.

From the new CPT article:

So basically we can rule out Ultra being talked about on Sunday IF Capcom comes up to the podium after Marvel?

You see what you're setting yourself up for lol

I'll keep an eye out for Rachel stuff

 

[Dahbomb]

From the new CPT article:

Sounds like what most people are expecting.

The retail version of USF4 + PC version might come with updated balance changes as well.

 

[atomic moth]

EMP not going to EVO or not playing in the exhibition?

 

[DryEyeRelief]

If they can't get Sanford and Dieminion they should just make the exhibition 3v3.

 

[Rhapsody]

lol

At least I actually like that game (but I don't use Rin)

If this updates screws up SF even more than what it is, there is gonna be trouble.

 

[Dahbomb]

Pretty sure it's just going to be bug plus weird hit box fixes. They might tone down Yun some if he gets out of hand at EVO.

I just want Sagat to be good.

Failing that, I hope they make Decapre a little less gimmicky.

So THAT'S where the sticks went... hrm, better think twice about playing on the Xrd setups.

I hope Haitani does well, it was sad to see him in 2012 getting 9th. His matches are amazing to watch whether he wins or loses.

Haitani got 5th last year. Hoping he does well too with the new and improved makoto

If MadKatz announces a PS4 stick that's easy to swap art on, I'm cancelling my HORI pre-order.

C'mon, MarkMan. Make me throw my money at you, bro.

I heard he switched back to Rufus.

I haven't watched WNF in a while. Is online tony dealing with Seth changes well? Have any of the usual finalists changed characters with ultra?

Online Tony usually works during WNF so he hasn't been going for a while.

The Steam Co is willing to send Sanford Kelly to Evo under certain conditions...

Well we probably won't see Sanford Kelly this year

 

[Sixfortyfive]

If further tweaking is in the cards, major or minor, I kind of wish the disc version would be delayed until the game is absolutely finalized.

The less games for which we have to worry about downloadable patches, the better, especially now that we're in the tail end of the 360/PS3 generation and end-of-life concerns are real.

You mean the TE2 they announced a month ago?

Realistically even if there is a patch/update upon the disc release I bet we still get another patch later this year or next year.

Its not like it matters, even Triforce himself knows how much of a nutjob he is.

What does it matter if he didn't register for the tournament anyway lol

 

[jbug617]

EVO usually has a late registration on but I heard it's really expensive.

Yea at the door last minute. They say they don't but they always do.

 

[BakedYams]

On r/kappa:

Post: Can I bring my donkey to EVO?

Description: I want to make a grand entrance for my matches while riding a Donkey. I checked the rules for EVO and it doesn't say anywhere that I'm not allowed to bring a Donkey. He also loves Vergil and sometimes he stands up and goes I'M MOTIVATED

One of the responses: That's rude Justin, wanting to ride on Marn just for show. Keep that shit in the bedroom

Guys I'm dying, this is too much.

 

[WesternHeretic]

Is /r/Kappa the place where people who can't get on GAF go?

Aren't the disc versions finalized way before this point?

I mean I feel the same but it seems like that ship has sailed

I think that place is called gafranbats.

Just cause I like you doesn't mean I like your avatar bro.

 

[Conceited]

This is actually a pretty good idea, especially considering the time slot its in. The shorter the better.
