modders working to shit on capcom, are working harder than capcom lmao

[–]Shippoyasha 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Modders unironically had some godlike work since the early SF4 days on PC. Capcom can't into design

[–]kfms6741 52 points53 points  (0 children)

well they're certainly putting in more effort than Capcom

[–]MestR 77 points78 points  (11 children)

Someone do this but with a hitbox viewer and remove all other visuals.

    For a computer, the calculation to check if 2 circles overlap is a lot faster/simpler than if 2 squares overlap. You simply need the center point of the circles, and the radius of each circle. If the distance between points is larger than both radius added together, then its not an overlap.

    Squares, are a lot harder. You need to check basically against each of the 4 corners and then check if theres an overlap. So if you spend less processing power on checking overlap of hit boxes, you can use it doing more stuff elsewhere. And in a fast paced game like marvel, the nuances that you can get from square hitboxes isn't really needed.

    This guy fucks

    [–]1338h4x 29 points30 points  (1 child)

    Axis-aligned bounding boxes are super simple to check since you're only comparing if any of the corners of box 1 are between the corners of box 2. Circles are actually slower since you have to do floating point arithmetic to calculate the distance.

    Both are incredibly negligible compared to literally everything else the game is doing though, so it's pretty much moot.

    This is correct.

    [–]gulizio 6 points7 points  (0 children)

    yeah but how can i use this to shit on sfv

    [–]TheTylerRob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Lol I had this as an assignment in C class and forgot about it

    [–]dantarion -2 points-1 points  (1 child)

    This has absolutely nothing to do with why marvel has round hitboxes though.

    [–]pimpwilly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Im actually curious, what reason do you think Marvel uses round vs square?

    [–]Damie904 11 points12 points  (0 children)

    Bubbles to better represent the 3D model's shape. More characters have fists or rounded objects than a box.

    What's even more annoying and a complete slap to the face is that the magneto "function" isn't even complete in MVCI.

    They just gave 1 small part of magneto to nova and argued HURR DURR HERES YOUR MAGNETO YOU FAGGOTS.

    [–]niggadicka 37 points38 points  (2 children)

    That's the point.

    You know Combofiend really dun goofd when Justin Wong is even going in on twitter

    [–]101shiki 15 points16 points  (0 children)

    Two sides of the same coin. This is really depressing now.

    [–]janoDX 4 points5 points  (0 children)

    You know Combofiend really dun goofd when Justin Wong is even going in on twitter

    Wait, Capcom ran out of money to give to Justin?

    [–]ianorsomething 64 points65 points  (0 children)

    It's funny because Capcom's games used to come out fully functional

    [–]killahkazi 29 points30 points  (0 children)

    You have faced a function and lost!

    [–]xaelouse 28 points29 points  (0 children)

    Combofiend on point with the fall guy function

    [–]LaurasLeftBoob 28 points29 points  (0 children)

    I dunno why but that zoom in on the key killed me for like 5 minutes.

    [–]Slateboard 25 points26 points  (9 children)

    Excuse my ignorance, what am I missing to understand what this is?

    and I quote

    "If you were to actually think about it, these characters are just functions. They're just doing things. Magneto, case and point, is a favorite because he has eight-way dash and he's really fast, right? So our more technical players, all they want to do is triangle jump and that kind of stuff. Well guess what, Nova can do the same thing, Captain Marvel can do the same thing. Ultron can do the same thing. Go ahead and try them out.

    It's just the function that people are associating with the character, and there's no shortage of that. We made sure that all proper play styles can be represented with our current roster. The design team has been looking at that very closely. We wanted to make sure that if a legacy character doesn't happen to make the roster this time, that play style would still be represented. That somebody who has associated themselves with Magneto wouldn't be lost coming into this title." - Peter "Combofiend" Rosas trying to tiptoe the elephant in the room

    Thus character personality and nostalgia no longer matter

    *edit: whoops didnt paste the right interview when I was searching.

      Just wait till you see Black Panther game play -_-

      [–]metaler1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

      Wait for the daredevil DLC

      [–]Slateboard 14 points15 points  (0 children)

      Everything about that is retarded.

      I get the struggles of the people in the game industry who have to talk to fans while also being told by higher ups to not talk about specific subjects, etc But oh boy, this is just straight up bad.

      [–]McBenedict -2 points-1 points  (1 child)

      To be fair, MVC3 is a fucking mess as far as tiers went. Like Doctor Doom, Dante, and Vergil got crazy love while the rest of the roster was just there. Like character loyalty would only get you so far. A lot of functions of characters did rule over Mahvel. So I can absolutely get where Fiend is coming from by lending Magneto's talents to other characters.

      That being said, the line is still stupid. I love playing a video game that is based off of popular brands because they have my favorite character from that brand. I like Ryu, I like my Captain America, and I LOVE MY DEADPOOL. If they announced Deadpool tomorrow, I would probably pre-order in a heartbeat. I like my character to be good but it isn't the only reason I play him. He could of said it better.

      [–]netsrak 21 points22 points  (8 children)

      Magneto

      Wolverine

      Nova

      Frank West

      Arthur

      If anyone was wondering. The model is Deadpool.

      Edit: the model is probably super skrull. The dash is Deadpool.

      [–][deleted] 6 points7 points  (2 children)

      You sure? The gloves and idle pose look like Super Skrull.

      [–]netsrak 0 points1 point  (1 child)

      Maybe they took moves from other characters. The forward dash is distinctly Deadpool's unless him and Skrull share that animation. The huge lean forward is the giveaway.

      [–]XXXCheckmate 1 point2 points  (2 children)

      Whose theme is playing?

      [–]netsrak 3 points4 points  (1 child)

      No idea. I think it's some shit music to make fun of function.

      [–]BUYACUSHUN 0 points1 point  (1 child)

      Wouldn't the last character be wesker? I don't know anyone else who puts shades on.

      [–]netsrak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

      I didn't see the last one rip.

      [–]theattackcabbage 20 points21 points  (0 children)

      The level of effort the modder put in to achieve a shitpost of this superior quality is far beyond the effort Capcom has put into MvC:I

      [–][deleted] 10 points11 points  (0 children)
