Looking at the new gameplay for SFV, it would seem that counter crush is the mechanic that replaces focus attack, you can do massive damage with the right characters if it hits properly. Besides you can easily react to it since the animation has takes a lot of frames for you to act

I usually main shoto characters, but because of the no chip damage except for super skills, shoto IMHO has a slight disadvantage on this. Looking to main Nash or Cammy in this game

Nash it's purely on his V-skill, his V-skill is easy to hit confirm and activate his super, and can hit either side. Ryu on the other hand.... I think he is the weakest cast on the roaster, without his super he does not have much mix up, and his parry is overrated IMHO.
Ken seems to much better because he can combo easily with his V-skill and into a super, plus his footies are way better than ryu.

Another character which I am very afraid is Birdie, he has a lot of unblockable moves and he is much more agile then zangief

The old parry was just 1 forward motion, now it takes 2 button to parry which is not convenient, another character i forgot to mention is Dhalsim, he new fireball make make grablers bite their balls out

Get those QANBA stick, using QAF4 with no issues on PC. Btw I am a bit emotional to bid my farewell last game on SFIV cause I have been playing it for 7 years, manly tears are pouring down

May i know which stick has problems with SFV? I assume those sticks that uses XBOX 360 settings should not have a problem but what about QANBA and Madcatz PS4 sticks?

What do you mean when you say "configure"? I am using QANBA QAF4, do i need a third party program to run my stick?

I think there is no excuse from Capcom to release a the game in this state, when SFIV came out there was no such issues plus everything was near perfect with minimum patches needed. The thing that make it more pissing there was so many beta trials and yet after that they release the game incomplete, and everyone has to pay it at full price! SUCK BALLS CAPCOM!

such a bummer there is no mode that you can fight with AI on their hardest difficulty, I sually my combos on AI first but can only do it on Training mode

SIGH

Madcatz buttons are Sanwa's..... Sanwa is the manufacturer for the buttons in the arcade and they have been along for very long, compare it to Cherry MX switches on mechanical keyboards
If your planning to buy a new joystick, i recommend highly to buy QANBA cause the price is much cheaper and they are also using SANWA. You can buy a brand new one in Time Square, Madcatz TE2 PS4 is not easy to find....

So glad i train myself playing on stick for 1year +, use to play on keyboard but i guess I will play SFV without keyboard

Is there an open event or place where we can play offline? Someone please organise =p

Nah was working, hope there is a community in Klang Valley then the players can gather and have fun. Online can only get you so far but offline is the way to go

U have the link the the event?

Not sure we are allowed to compete with legacy sticks, can't play on PS4 controllers and I can't afford a new Mad Catz TE2 stick

Thanks for adding me bro =P, I want to fight your side boobs characters

Give me sometime cause my next cha is Karin

This Rashid reminds me of Fuerte because his moves are so random!

Nicalli is such a blow up character...... can go through my sonic boom with just 1 special move.... end my 15 win streak in 30 sec @_@

Just realize something on the ranking system in the game and just wanted to share, if your in the bronze or super bronze league, you will only fight with people in the same league, if you drop or rank up you will change your league group and fight with people there instead.
