I give you - Jojo's ASB, patched out an infinite for everybody.
Aaaannnnd done.
#Game Testing.

My fg banes for now. (Based on my opinion... just to get that clear)
UMVC3 - TOD combos from round start. Character choice limited at high
level play.
Ultra Street fighter 4 - Counterpick has massive influence.
Mortal Kombat X - plain old guesswork for thetplays. Breakers give no
advantage.
GGXrd - reeeeediculous damage from certain characters and pitiful damage
from others.
KOF13 - not played anymore :(
KOF2002um - character balance? Wtf is that?
Tekken - seriously? People still play that?
I seriously enjoy Jojos, it's too bad no-one else got interested in it,
but 30fps was a mistake.

A new Double Dragon game by Arcsys? That would be godlike.

Their biggest mistake is taking cues from tournament players. Just
as good players don't necessarily make good coaches, they also don't make
good game designers.

The competitive approach is that everything should be stupidly strong
and players should use their skill to adjust. This is good in theory,
but
very hard to do in practice. They should leave stuff like this to
professional Battle Directors, not gamers. Tournament players should be
involved in testing, not design.

Some moves just can't simply be patched out by numbers...some stuff

I hope they make every character's variations either useful or fun
to play. I mean what's the point of Kitana's mournful variation...

It would be hilariously broken if they scrapped the whole variation
idea and fused all 3 variation into 1 character...get ready for some
broken
ass shit if that happens lolz

Interesting posts from Viscant. I do wonder though if the NRS
games would’ve lost people regardless of their non-stop patching. I

we’ll never know. And after all their MK9 patches, they still
couldn’t

I was
particularly cheerful about the way in which they did it – like the
Bladam
walk speed nerf…



I wonder how Subby or Scorp would’ve been in MK9 if they hadn’t
nerfed them at the start.

Hah. You should read some of the discussions I have with people
about this. They're simply just clueless.

"I play Honda in SFIV so I don't mind the slow walkspeed. In
fact, I'm glad that they are doing this!"

Doesn't realize that Honda and Ryu have the same walkspeed in
SFIV...

I don’t know enough about SF to know whether SF5 is making
dumb decisions.

First thing to watch is movement speed and hitboxes. Both of
these were nerfed. That's your clearest indication that they don't
know
what they are doing.

I wonder about some of these changes to the regular franchises.



The movement nerf in Tekken is retarded. I can’t think of any
good reason why it would happen. That’s about the only real problem
that I
have with the current build of T7. I expect some work on normalising
damage
for certain characters, but that’s about it. Also I don’t understand
the
whole 1 button throw break thing. That’s two major nerfs/dumb-downs.



MK…well… I dunno. It’s hard to take MK seriously. MK9 was so
badly unbalanced that strategy didn’t exist. MKX seems way too
focussed on
the ‘get opponent to corner then pressure with 50/50 low/overhead
strings
that lead to half bar damage’. They’ve changed the game but not in a
good
way. Maybe it will work out in the end. I’m guessing that, like with
Injustice, by the time the last patches of MKX hit, we won’t
recognise the
gameplay from the original build.



How about GG? I know that they dumbed down the whole roman cancel
thing, but overall xrd doesn’t seem to have too many stupid decisions
messing it up.

That's the problem with these games bruh, they expect us to
remember all these things in order to play their games.

Like why must I take responsibility for my gameplay when the
developers are actively trying to distract me with inputs and timing.

Such bullshit that I must buy a game and then they expect me to
play it to get good.
