Which fighting game character you guys hate the most, turns out to be your lucky charm? I bet all the Viper haters would love her if you played her.
Hm. Kim, KOF13. Thought he was the game's Cammy (he kind of is), but one day I just saw some swag combo and wanted to do it, picked him up and found him really fun to play with actually solid footsies as well as the freight train mode.
f~qcf = dp = hate.
Started grinding KOF13 again and it revitalized my hate of shortcuts. I input something clean and it doesn't come out and instead I get a DP? WHYYYYYYYYYYY.
Chained-into normals not being special cancelable is pretty much an exclusively Capcom thing.

In KOF13's case, there are a lot of characters with both DPs and QCFs.
So to make sure you don't get accidental DPs, there are two methods:
1) Practice your quarters such that you do not input a forward before the quarter. If this is not possible (such as when running forward, then inputting a normal you want to cancel into QCF+P) you might be able to quickly go to neutral after the normal is pressed, then late-cancel. If not...
2) End your QCF motion on up-forward. DP moves never come out on up-forward.
It should be said that they could've easily designed the special moves to not have overlapping motions. Perhaps the devs wanted good players to be using all kinds of input tricks.

I can't see how it could top the surprise release of Street Fighter Alpha 4.

I can confirm this is fairly accurate. Not much complex math involved unless you're working on enterprise software for banks or insurance companies really.

I know the override and am glad it exists. I still want to watch input shortcuts burn.

That's what happens when it stops being a public show floor and turns into a press only event.
Yup there we go, I knew something had changed but hadn't paid attention to E3 in long enough to remember what.

Are the dev cycles really longer? Two to three years still seems to be more or less how things always were. Things are more rough right now because of the business demands of creating AAA games and studios actually struggling with developing for new platforms and shipping games in proper working order.
That and the game marketing cycles have gotten far more aggressive.
Mainly yeah E3 is less important because the larger publishers don't really need it and the smaller publishers are kind of not existing or it's also not worth it for them. But there will still be fun announcements and bad ones. I mean lets remember how Nintendo announcing a new console went over the last time, a lot of people didn't even realize it happened.

No that's the amount of resources used up. If the scope is large but needs to be done in a short cycle then you will use up more manpower, if you want to maintain the length in terms of time of the cycle without additional man years/centuries invested then you have to reduce the scope of the project.
I actually somewhat agree that discrete is one of the easier math types to get into overall but when you get swamped with other work and can't focus, it's a fucking wrap.
I'm so salty at my grade for the class that I'm actively trying to teach it to myself here now. Competitive spirit is not letting me live this down, especially when I mauled my other classes for the semester.
Its both, you could put the extra resources on other games development if you didn't have to throw it towards your huge AAA title every time.
Ubisoft and its 1000 man armies just to make Ass Creed games for example.

It's really not.
Diverting those resources would only make sense if they would generate more return on investment.
I think we are going to disagree then.

E3 was always "press only" in name. A few years back they tried to scale back (remember the EforAll spinoff around the time Brawl was first playable) cause the organizers weren't making any money from E3. After a year or two everybody went like Wait This Is Stupid and they tried to go back to the original format.
RockTurtle

yeah i remember the rumor was that Sony was pulling out cause of the abysmal ps3 launch, and that caused E3 to try and scale back.
the next couple of E3s felt barebone, and honestly it was the beginning of the online gaming news site catching steam, so everything that was revealed was either leaked or hinted at, drowning some of the hype.
no longer had to wait for my monthly EGM to decide what was the big reveal.
Scaling is pretty harsh, nobody would get much damage from linking two supers.
Yup last hits do 1dmg TT~TT

it def made some stuff easier. it was a bit harder to cancel her runs into alpha counters though for me since it's such a weird motion

E3 is only fun because of all the delusional TLG fans. It's like a second Xmas to me!
A lot of publishers were getting pissed that they'd put all their eggs in one basket for E3 and a few games would dominate the news cycle and overshadow everyone else's products. That's mostly not an issue anymore as publishers can just put new trailers on YouTube and hype those up a few days prior on Twitter.
Worst thing to me is that hit confirmed xflat does about the same damage as ken's sa3

Probably because no one can land links online.
Condition you to block so they can throw you
Condition you to throw so they can go for CH set up
Or they can't combo reliably and want easy damage/want to run oki on you
Setup fighter 4
you know, thank god I crouch tech and my short always hit's them before they try to walk up to me but I feel like people online always feel the need to be in control since they don't have footsies they don't have any other way of gaining the advantage
Basic tick setup in SFIV. These things have been working for almost two decades now.
