Even pre SF4 I don't think fighting games were dying namco, arc, SNK and others were still releasing games in the dry period post CvS2

I do believe Capcom have the biggest mind share with the greater gaming audience and the release of SF4 helped people get interested in the genre again or was their introduction into it.

Anyway BIONIC ARM!!!!

I used to be really into them a long time ago then I do not know what happened.


Any suggestions for games to get me back on track?

There are ways to play with a keyboard that actually aren't horrible. I actually prefer a HitBox-setup on a keyboard(that is, using Space as the Up-key) above a regular pad.
That, or a controller converter for a Xbox/PS3-pad doesn't cost much afaik.

I don't play that much SF4 myself though(prefer TTT2 and SFxT), and I'm fairly bad at it. I also get framedrops and stuff on PC. :V


Perhaps that would work, but after so many hours behind a xbox playing all kinds of fighting games I think I'm just to used to it to change. :p I never got a chance to play TTT2 (tho the first one makes me very nostalgic) or SFxT. I thought of getting the latter, but the animations just seem so... off. SF4's animation and movement looks so damn good, while everything looks a bit too flat for SFxT. I'll probably try to pick it up whenever the price drops though and I got time over. :)

Sadly, it often looks to me as if Street Fighter is the Starcraft of fighting game. As in it being many time more popular than other fighting games. So even though you could say that the fighting genre is still strong and point at SF, the rest of the current fighting games are a fair bit below.

The other games get good turn outs, and the popularity differs from country to country.

For example the top game in Asia is Tekken, in North America and Europe it's Capcom and South America it's SNK.

I really think this generation has the strongest line up of games and it's quite evident when EVO has eight main games this year.

If you like T3 I think you will really like Tag2, it's easily the best fighter out at the moment.

Yep, but i do not own PS3 and so am limited to what can run on PC. Honestly those fighting games are the only reason to get PS3, but as I spend more time in COH - do not see the deal to get a PS3 just for tag2

Tag 2 is out for Xbox as well, if you've got that.

I bought an Xbox last christmas mainly for fighting games, I don't regret the purchase at all.

It was a long time ago since I watched SF tourneys or followed the scene at all. (never followed it too close but used to watch through VODS of played tournaments, as well as following gootecks/crosscountertv on youtube) IPK, can you link or advice me were I might find some recent high level Abel play? Or is he still played by anyone on a high level? :)

Rico Suarez, Juicebox and Tahaa off the top of my head. I think he's quite good still. Not top tier but competitive.

Add Pikagoma and robin01 to that list for some good japanese ones. Robin especially was one of my favorites back when I started SF4 and wanted to try to learn Abel.

Abel is good. He's got awkward anti-airs, no good reversal move and his main bread 'n butter is a one frame link, but his mobility combined with his amazing damage and mix-ups makes up for it.

Sounds like not too much have changed (as I remember it he was always a bit in the mid because of his AA and one frame link) will try to check some of them out. :)

Change Viper, Seth and Fuerte so that they actually have to play footsies please.
On a more serious note; all they really need to do is to fix unblockables, slightly tone down some of the top tiers and give the lower tiers a little help, and everything will be fine.

I might get into SF4 again, actually. I was never any good at it in the first place, but I might just check it out again if it turns out to be good.

LimaOscarMike: My laptop can't even run COH3. Should I get them on my Series X or is it dead yet?
Last Saturday, 05:10 AM
Rosbone: One of my last major gripes about Coh3. Price is still too high I feel for growth. But progress is always good.
Last Saturday, 04:43 AM
Rosbone: I am not 100% sure but I think Relic actually fixed up the skirmish menus a little last patch. If so, thank you and keep it coming.

Lady Xenarra: Does anyone else think that USF needs buffs? It feels like they’re on life support sometimes
01 Apr 2025, 02:36 AM
Willy Pete: @Rosbone Ahh I missed that memo. I still think its a bad decision though. Adds frustration for players and isnt gonna make them that much money
27 Mar 2025, 15:46 PM
Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.
27 Mar 2025, 09:34 AM
Rosbone: But I agree, the cost to get a full decent Coh game pushing $115 US is not the best idea. Especially when it needs so much more work for casuals.
27 Mar 2025, 09:32 AM
Rosbone: To be fair, it was a thank you to early fans right? They said it was not free for long and it would become a pay DLC at some point.
27 Mar 2025, 09:30 AM
Willy Pete: Re-releasing free DLC so they can charge new players money for it. Brilliant marketing strategy :clap:

25 Mar 2025, 18:27 PM

22 Mar 2025, 14:00 PM
Willy Pete: @Nickbn you didn't ask a question, and this is a chat box...
20 Mar 2025, 13:11 PM
Nickbn: @Rosbone it's incredibly rude to speak on someone elses behalf, especially when a question is directly adressed to them. I understand your passion for the subject at hand but I want to hear from him.
20 Mar 2025, 10:16 AM
Rosbone: @Nickbn No, I am just saying people should not be using any Relic owned forum since they have proven they ban anyone who says true things about Coh3.
18 Mar 2025, 19:01 PM
Nickbn: @Rosbone do you speak on his behalf? I didn't know. In that case keep us updated please.

Rosbone: @Nickbn True except, the only people on the Relic Discord/Reddit/Steam are brain washed monkey zealots. They wont even understand what @adamírcz is talking about. Anyone else is banned.
16 Mar 2025, 17:54 PM
Nickbn: @adamírcz might be a better idea to voice this to relic directly than to voice it here, in a shoutbox of a nearly deade fansite #justsaying...

14 Mar 2025, 19:26 PM
Rosbone: It is so unlike Relic to punish its fans and community.
14 Mar 2025, 12:07 PM
adamírcz: So, I just got a leaver penalty without even getting onto the loading screen because of the game disconnecting, bravo Relic
14 Mar 2025, 10:45 AM
Rosbone: It is an indicator of the very short sighted capitalist view that plagues any company where leadership does not understand the product.
13 Mar 2025, 20:00 PM
Rosbone: They dont care about Coh3 or Coh in general. They are just trying to grab cash by ripping off the small user base they have.
13 Mar 2025, 19:58 PM
Rosbone: Just making mistake after mistake after mistake.
13 Mar 2025, 19:57 PM
Rosbone: It is clear they crapped out an unfinished game. And are now barely supporting it as they make new smaller games. Coh3 is stillborn. It will be meh for at least another 2-4 years. Meaning they killed the whole franchise instead of growing it.
13 Mar 2025, 19:56 PM
Rosbone: For a thing they could fix in minutes. Literally minutes.
13 Mar 2025, 19:53 PM
Rosbone: If I did play coh3 and was mainly a skirmish player, I would be pissed and probably stop playing. And it has been like this since release. Why? I would not tell my friends to buy a game I am not even playing. Lost sales and angered users.
13 Mar 2025, 19:53 PM
Rosbone: I am just saddened how Relic keeps hurting themselves by not fixing 5 minute things like menus. Why anger users with stuff that could be fixed in minutes???
13 Mar 2025, 19:50 PM
Rosbone: I was wondering why people think I was raging. I think it was when I said "because coh3 sucks so bad". That was not my opinion. Just a general feel from top players/streamers. I dont play Coh3 and have NO opinion of it.
13 Mar 2025, 19:48 PM
OKSpitfire: You can rage as often as you like btw, you usually manage to make it pretty funny.
12 Mar 2025, 11:18 AM
Rosbone: So it was a systemic failure across multiple disciplines and check points.
12 Mar 2025, 04:30 AM
Rosbone: Knowing how companies work, I imagine a new hire making the menus. The API they are using is complicated and things were hard to figure out. But at some point QA or management should have addressed these things. Usually within 6 months of starting.
12 Mar 2025, 04:29 AM
Rosbone: @theekvn I dont hate Coh3 or Relic. I just dont understand how you work on Coh3 for like 7 years and the menu system is worse than if a Programming 101 student made it. Feel free to explain it to me.
12 Mar 2025, 04:07 AM
theekvn: + 33% dmg rear hit was best deal ever.
12 Mar 2025, 04:00 AM
theekvn: KT just need fuel debuf from 15% to 50%, Ele arc of fire- aim time improve and they are good to go
12 Mar 2025, 03:59 AM
theekvn: and please Rosbone,I know you hate Coh3 to the bone due to your drama with relic, Still, Can you give a proper point of view instead of raging ?.
12 Mar 2025, 03:54 AM
theekvn: you rather go 76 to unity Whizbang 2.0 or go home.
12 Mar 2025, 03:52 AM
theekvn: also US tier 4 is 145f and Sherman pen 140 nerf is too much.
12 Mar 2025, 03:52 AM
theekvn: Whizbang lock behind CP, meanwhile stuka is techtree progress
12 Mar 2025, 03:51 AM
KoRneY: @aerafield It's possible that it is underpriced for what it is capable of now, no need to go full retard and take it immediately as a massive problem. It costs 60 more MP than a pz.3 and in 2v2 the barrage can be quite strong.
07 Mar 2025, 19:14 PM
OKSpitfire: I do like that they made the Stuka more expensive instead of nerfing it into the ground though. Found it pretty unsatisfying to use before that buff a while back....
06 Mar 2025, 16:35 PM
aerafield: USF already is by far the shittiest faction in terms of countering blobbing and turtling, now they supposedly have one overtuned tool locked behind a BG and it's immediately a massive problem?
06 Mar 2025, 13:33 PM
Lady Xenarra: I think post-2.0 Whizbang buffs, the price is too low esp since the Stuka got nerfed in cost too. Speaking of which, how exactly is one supposed to successfully dive this Sherman in disguise? Med tank spam running into SSFs?
06 Mar 2025, 12:13 PM
OKSpitfire: A powerful, doctrinal unit that outperforms stock stuff? Colour me shocked! :P
06 Mar 2025, 10:49 AM
Willy Pete: Cool you wanna lose your stock lategame arty too then?
06 Mar 2025, 03:20 AM
Lady Xenarra: WTB Whizzbang for DAK instead of Stuka, 5 fuel cheape, 60MP more expensive and next to impossible to dive. :rofl:
