You'll wait until Halloween and like it!

I'm still waiting on their CPT DLC clarification, but I doubt that's coming anytime soon.

Or, & hear me out on this, maybe they're saving Urien's reveal for either Gamescom or PAX.

I may be pessimistic at times, but you make me look like a ray of sunshine.

Urien (or rather DLC character #6) was scheduled for September so I figure that's when we are getting them. August would be nice because it looks all we're getting this month is a server side RQ fix.

I mean, I get that, but they could still do the reveal at either of the two events & say "Hey, Urien's coming with all those updates we mentioned before".

That's a possibility. Any big event or CPT event happening in September?

I'm kind of curious when the September event will happen, too. 2XFM weekend is happening the very first weekend of Sept.

Didn't they post something about the CPT DLC?

Originally it was held back because the Reddit mods wanted certain things in the FAQ, but I'd imagine that Haunts decided to redirect his efforts towards getting the news for the two updates out there first before the CPT DLC FAQ.

That's just the replay function the guy is using.

Not sure why it's bullshit, though!? You can throw a V-Reversal if you recover fast enough, too. Same thing.

Not really, because you'd have to anticipate the reversal. With option selects, the game chooses the favorable outcome for you.

Yun and Yang don't play anything at all alike. I hate this idea. I love Yang and hate Yun. I wouldn't want them to combine the characters. This is stupid. You should all feel bad.

Juri's V-reversal just sucks. It has the least amount of I-frame. With other characters you need to use S.HK which has enough start up frames to counter any V-Reversal that strikes in it's recovery.

Meanwhile with Juri, a -4 on block overhead can punish the V-reversal.

How would they even fix that?

The st. MP left him positive and gave more than enough time for the parry to activate.

Yeah...not seeing the issue.

Also not seeing the issue when you v-reversaled so late. The animation for the overhead is completely over, and it hit twice...you countered the 2nd hit instead of the first.

If it's -4 on block, why wouldn't you punish with an actual move? Depending on stock, you' could get c.lk, s.lp into whatever, or at least a pinwheel.

Vreversal isn't meant to punish things on block, it's meant to interrupt pressure.

Juri was scheduled for August but we got her in July. I see no reason to believe Urien will not be out at the end of the month until told otherwise. Both Balrog and Juri were early.

That's not the point I'm making. It's her reversal having less I-frame than any of the other characters. And even then it's not good dealing with pressure because Ibuki and Juri herself have moves that goes over it.

They're using V-Reversals to balance characters, they feel very deliberate. Maybe they just didn't want her to have a decent one.

I would assume nothing and hope for the best. The only expectation I have Urien being released before October.

I guess I just have a different mentality. You see a problem, I see character uniqueness and necessity to learn in which circumstances you would want to use what is essentially a get off me move. I don't have any issues with v-reversals being unique across the cast.

I hardly call them unique when most of them just cause a knockdown or push them away. The only one who is unique is Cammy and maybe Zangief which gives him a mix up.

They have different utility and circumstances under which you'd want to use them. I'd say they're all pretty unique and work with the character.

damn another huge losing streak until i got not one guile mirror but two. one was even two leagues above me. good games, no rage or peasant winquits.

i really need to learn the birdie matchup. dude is rare and i can't punish his garbage because his huge body gets pushed back for some reason. gotta lame it out from afar or i'll stand no chance. feels bad man.

He has only two outside of V-Trigger iirc (fwd+HP and EX Bull Horn) and both are pretty punishable on block.

Has there been any info regarding what/if they are going to show more stuff at Gamescom this week? Been seeing Dead Rising stuff so far.

I can also get KoF early (As of last Friday) but don't know if I want to pay full price for it. BLEH.

Been trying to learn Balrog lately. The raw impact of his moves makes him feel so good to play, I just gotta up my defense and get better at charge inputs to fully feel comfortable with him.

I like how the camera shakes when you connect with his EX Straight. A nice way of showing that dude hits really, really hard.

Finally reached ultra silver rank after a rage quitting Necalli and an army of 2K laggers tried to stop me. Also, version 1.07 is messed up because 70% of my match data fails to upload. Half the time I don't even know what my LP is.

haven't seen one in a month too.

Ditto for Guile. I see a Sim, FANG or Birdie once in a blue moon, but Guile is gone. People who say the DLC characters should be invisible on character select unless you've bought them are wrong. It would be easy to assume Guile isn't even in the game if he were removed from character select.

Too many fighting games developpers underestimate the impact of those visuals and sound effects in the "feel good" department, that's really sad.
