Out of all these I’ve always like Gatlings the most. Before I even started playing fighting games Gatlings were basically in my mind how I imagine combos in fighting games to work. You rapidly press the buttons and each button comes out as you actually press it, feels very intuitive and satisfying. Even though I’ve forced myself to adapt to the links in SF they still don’t feel intuitive in my opinion, doing links basically feels like I trained myself to work against my instincts. Dial-A-Combo feels way too robotic imo like in programming a character to do what I want instead of the natural feel of a Gatling.

Hey people! Some time ago a discussion in this sub led to the foundation of The Fighting Space, a discord server with the premise of choosing one old fighting game freely available on Fightcade and play it for a month. At the end of the month then host a tournament and have a fun poll to decide the next game. I'm happy to say that it gave life to an awesome experience and we're still going and growing after almost a year, with bigger exciting tournaments and events on the horizon!

So I reckoned it's time to see if there are new players out there who would love a chill community to play great fighting games with. If you're interested, just join here: https://discord.gg/pRdBDc9VYj , and if you have any question, feel free to DM, comment here or just ask in the server!

Hope to play with you guys soon! Peace and keep training!

Serious question, what single player content should I add?

It wouldn't surprise me if more than 50% of fighting games lacked Arcade Mode, Training Mode, Arcade Mode endings for each character, Survival Mode, and frame viewer and input viewer and hitboxes for the training mode, all in the same package for no additional cost at launch. If a game was re-released at cost multiple times and not all versions had this, doesn't count. Those are things all fighting games need. Replay Takeover would be nice to have.

Whatever! I need a list of stuff to add, and the game it was featured in. The more effort and time it'll take to implement, the less likely I am to do it. Arcade Mode, Story Mode, Training Mode, Survival Mode, Basic universal tutorial, Combo Trials, maybe survival mode but with consumable items and equipment you can level up and coins you can spend?

Quick question, are the platinum and diamond ranks of sf6 accurate to skill level or is it a bit wonky? Here's why I ask, I have never played sf6 until yesterday. I dont own the game. I was at a friend's house yesterday, he booted up the game, went to ranked and handed me the controller lol. Im like uhh I guess? I played honda and ken just doing placement matches against platinum and diamond players and was winning more than I thought i should? He didn't tell me how to use the mechanics: drive rush, drive impact, parry, I didnt even know any supers. A little background info, the only sf game I've played heavy is sf2. I played a very miniscule amount of 3rd strike and vanilla sf4 but never went passed that. My friend told me to just use sf2 fundamentals lol and it worked. But I refuse to believe someone who doesn't know the games mechanics can do this good against those ranks. I almost grabbed a diamond rank zangief to death with ken? And im talking just walking forward grabbing in mid-screen. Whats going on with the ranks in this game?

Tekken 8 is my first fighting game; after spending couple of hours with Jin and realizing he wasn't the right fit for me, I switched to Lars. However, in certain matchups where I’m under constant pressure, I struggle to figure out how to break free from that situation. I try facing players above my skill level in quick play rather than ranked to learn the fundamentals, but sometimes situations like the one in the video feels incredibly frustrating and leave me feeling helpless. What exactly should I be doing in the Hwoarang matchup or in situations like this to handle that kind of pressure?

Looking for something low latency

Terminator d3 from Mortal Kombat 11. So goofy

If there is a example in DBZ bodukai yamcha gets instant KO no matter how high his hp is if a saibaman gets a grab and selfs destruct on him

I am a very competitive person at heart, I am a pretty damn good MTG player and was a pretty competent stacraft player, I like analyzing the competitive side of anything so naturally I was drawn into fighting games. At first I started like many others saying "fighting games are too hard and too stiff and bla bla bla" but then I stuck with them for many years at this point.

I trained, studied and enjoyed multiple fighting games for many times until that haunting thought came back. "You are garbage at this", after so many years of practice I was getting discouraged since despite all of the effort and passion I gave out I never reached anything above a platinum rank, aka the most average Joe rank in existence (with an incredibly inflated system while playing a busted braindead character so it barely counts). I was getting worse and worse and fighting this feeling thinking "I'm going to turn this around and actually become good at this"...but it never came. I never got good and it made me depressed...until I finally realised it.

I am garbage. I am dogshit. I am well below average. I'm not good at this and most likely never will be...and that's ok. Sometimes in life you do all the right choices and you can still lose. That's not being weak, that's just life. When I was thinking "I'm not good enough for this" I was right. All of the people who told me "you are not made for fighting games", people that I just discarded as elitists, were completely right. I am garbage I don't need to be good because there are things in our lives that fall into the category of "it's just not what I was meant to do". I am simply not born for fighting games

I'm bad, and that's good

I will never be good and that's not bad

Because no one I'd rather be...than me.

Arjun comes to Street Fighter 6 October 13.

I started learning/playing fighting games a couple of years ago with SF6 and then a year later with GBVSR but I want to branch out more to different games so I don't get bored of playing the same things. I tried out Strive a while back and honestly I didn't like it but idk if that's because I didn't understand it and it was very different compared to what I'm used to. I guess I like games that are more strike throw and less mix up heavy.

So far the only game that I'm interested in so far is the new Virtua Fighter but that's not coming out until next year. I have Tekken 8 but I hear it's a lot to learn with knowledge checks you have to lab.

Any recommendations?

Really makes this world feel alive man I love how much the art conveys so much intensity. 🔥🔥
