What? That's crap. Mahvel isn't dead in the West. Neither is SF4. TTT2 is dead compared to those games. You can't blame an arcade scene. I also don't think the loss of Bob's d+1 was enough to kill the game in the West. I actually have no idea where they went wrong with Tekken or why it's just going nowhere in the West. It's a good game.

The east is doing fine if not better than BR. BR we lost players because it's pretty unbalanced...but in TTT2 we got a larger scene. And new players emerge more. In BR there's no new players...AT ALL. In TTT2 we get people like Kari for capo team who's doing very good and maybe surpassing Misty in korea. In Japan there's just too many new people to name but the old classics like Leedy, Nobi are more featured because they're the classics. Also the korean/japanese players are loving the better movement in the game...if not they're abusing the better movement like hell haha When new player emerge in the west? what does the older player do? bitch and moan hahaha prime example is Kor and his hatred for unfamiliarity with "NEW" characters (eg. characters that didn't see daylight in BR). And some Bob player just quit the character if not the game from the lack of bob's and old BR bob player names in youtube...because they cant just simply win with d+1 anymore and Bob in TTT2 rely in a lot more effort (he's becoming more like Jin).

I have no idea what Namco could do to save the Tekken series. They're losing the hardcore players and the game's learning curve means that you're not getting enough new players in either. Maybe they just need to reboot the series and make some massive changes. The last time they did something like that was T4, and while I loved the game, it wasn't exactly loved either.

It's sad that Tekken isn't there this year, especially since last year was so hype with Bronson running through everyone. TTT2 just isn't actually that exciting to watch.

LOL @ sfxt. BB is gna be sooo HYPE. Official EVO 2014 game line up * Ultra Street Fighter 4 * Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 * Injustice: Gods Among Us * King of Fighters 13 * Killer Instinct * Blazblue Chrono Phantasma * Super Smash Bros. Melee (a spot is reserved for Melee but Nintendo must approve first. Discussions currently taking place) Additional notes: * Mr. Wizard stated that after EVO 2013, Tekken has dropped off a bit. With this year being the game's 20th anniversary, the EVO team didn't want to risk having a new version of Tekken be released, while an outdated version is on the game line up, so the franchise was omitted this year. * Instead of having designated Road to EVO events, major tournaments with a certain amount of entrants will qualify for seeding points. Tournament organizers of majors events will have to submit results to the EVO team. Mr. Wizard mentioned that the system is still being worked out. These results will only apply for games on the EVO line up. * This year is the 20th anniversary of Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo. Tournament of Legends will be back this year, and EVO will also be holding the 3v3, single elimination tournament, X-Mania US, the national Super Turbo event from Japan. * Exhibition matches aren't currently scheduled, but will be fit into the line up if they can get set up. Combo videos will return if the community makes them. * If Kokonoe were to stay the way she is now in Blazblue Chrono Phantasma, she would be banned at EVO. She will be allowed however, as a patch to balance her is incoming. * Developer panels will be returning this year. * Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 will be 3 out of 5, as long as EVO doesn't have double the entrants as last year. Other games getting 3 out of 5 in top 8 will be dependent on how each game plays out. * Bring Your Own Console will be back this year, and there will be designated areas for players who want to run side tournaments. ________________________________ Date: Fri, 7 Feb 2014 02:30:34 +0200 Subject: Re: [CPT-FGC] Re: Hi From: ilitirit@xxxxxxxxx<mailto:ilitirit@xxxxxxxxx> To: cpt-fgc@xxxxxxxxxxxxx<mailto:cpt-fgc@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> It's like Capcom and SFIV.

But then, compared to most, I spout verbal diarrhea like Rufus - That's a close 2nd to GB. I called the whole Killer Instinct "buy out" when the studio was born. Not sell on more than just 1 platform? That's akin to game programming suicide. I expect to see the game coming to all platforms. The great Enno has predixiated.
