kneecap

Winner stays on, mics on cocks out (optional).

If you have any of these games reply here. Or don't.

hunk

I'm up for SFV. I'll be on later this evening.

Yossarian

I don’t have any of these games but I’m still replying here.

RedDave2

Would love to but can't do tonight.

Is there another night that might be possible?

I can do sfv, no mic, cock out.

hunk

Cap you on Steam? PSN?
What's your SFV handle?

kneecap

Oh yeah I forgot to check this.

Spaced_Harrier PSN whoops

Questor

I have over 250 hours on SF4 but I have barely played SF5 - I ought to change that at some point.

retroking1981

If be up for SFV at some point also.

dynamiteReady

Careful, m8.
Kneecap's a beast...

digi

I can be on sfv after footy if there's a few playing.

kneecap

Add me on PSN and I'll play you guys anytime.

hunk

Random fun fact:
I played Daigo online once in SFV and got my arse handed to me. It was probably a case of mistaken identity (my steam name is sirPunk). He was probably looking for that other Punk and got me instead.

I didn't realise it was Daigo until I saw his youtube vids using the same sfv screenname.

hylian_elf

Hah! Good one!

davyK

Excellent.

kneecap

If any of you cunts wanna fight tonight. You know what to do

kneecap

Well where are you guys. I'm awaiting the challenge.
Surely the SFV announcement has you out of the wood work

RedDave2

I will fight you... Tomorrow? Maybe? I'll be good from about 9pm (pc version).

ChopperByrne

I'm working late shifts all week, so just want to flake when I get home.

The pre-order for SFV CE immediately unlocks all current characters and costumes apparently, except the fighting chance ones.

Kow

I have Soul Calibre 6 on ps4. I am totally shit at it.

bogard

You puny humans don't stand a chance against my mighty Claw.

RedDave2

For anyone looking to get all the sfv characters, apparently there is a champion edition upgrade that 2orks out as pretty good value. I haven't checked the EU steam shop but in the states you can pick up a vanilla copy of sfv for about 8 dollars on steam, buy the champ upgrade which is 25 dollars and you will have 38 fighters with Gill and more unlocked once they get released, all the stages and most of the costumes (about 200). Not bad at all.

bogard

All the colors too. Only the fighting chance lootbox colors and costumes aren't included. It's a pretty good deal.

RedDave2

I'll be picking it up once my new laptop arrives. I don't have season 3 or 4 and very few stages or costumes.

SC VI Season 2 update dropped today.

Significant system changes, so the whole meta will change.

Unfortunately, it seems like they further nerfed movement, in a series that started out as having the best, most intuitive movement in any fighter.

kneecap

What did they do to movement?

ChopperByrne

It has steadily been nerfed since SC II, but the wording in the patch nodes was a bit off, but it seems you can now also get counter hit for stepping forward as well as backwards and sideways. EDIT: The English translation clarifies a bit. No counter hit on forward step, but a brief period that you can't block, so micro-step blocking is nerfed.

Mechanic changed - Vulnerability During a Step ・Taking a step backward or to the side temporarily places you in a vulnerable state during which you cannot guard, but now you will remain vulnerable even if you change direction to take a step forward. ・You will be able to guard again after a fixed amount of time has passed. ・However, changing direction to take a step forward still cannot be run countered.

Howdy, Stranger!
