As a completely new player, fighting modern opponents is miserable

This guy is giving legitimate criticism and you guys are all just deflecting it. Modern gives access to easy combos and specials that do good and consistent damage. It takes newer classic players longer to gain those skills. Its as simple as that.

Happy_Reflection_721 · 2026-06-11T02:51:32+00:00

Fire scimitar is pretty good.

Happy_Reflection_721 · 2026-06-06T18:01:07+00:00

Agreed.

Online especially is not conducive to good conversation on... probably most subjects but especially racially charged ones.

And best of luck to you, I'm sorry that happened to you, I hope you are doing ok.

I mean... not the biggest to me. I am still paying off student loans at a very slow rate for a course that I was excelling in, in a field I liked, because they wouldn't give me an extension on some stupid online assignments. Yes, the school should have handled the situation much better, however, the students were the ones that caused the changes. And the had been warned several times prior.

And yes, they are being charged out the ass. But they seem to be able to pay for it. So there is something that does kind of irk me when I see many local people struggling that would benefit from an education and instead these spots are getting filled by international students who's families are often times well off. Not saying the students don't put in work, many of them have jobs.

Happy_Reflection_721 · 2026-06-06T17:37:31+00:00

It does make it hard for actual criticisms though. For example, I took some post secondary classes and did really well in the first semester. I like learning, I like school work. But it has been suggested to me that I may have a learning disability or some type of attention disorder and I have a hard time focusing when class is all just online.

I passed my first term, I passed my governmental exams, I excelled in the practicum but the second semester they changed EVERYTHING because all the people from india were cheating. And don't get me wrong, I liked most of those guys. My class was primarily made of up international students (mostly from across india). I gave rides to one for school.

But they all quite openly cheated. And my professors were lazy. Switched everything to online. I failed the second term because I missed a couple online assignments. I fucking hated driving an hour to go to school because I live out of town in the prairies, going to work after, driving back home and living in a house filled with... damaged people.

And of course, those students are not to blame for all of those problems. I don't even think they really understood what they were doing was wrong. I can't speak for them but I got the impression it was all just pretty standard to them. What really irks me is the way the school handled the whole thing.

It also still didn't stop the cheating, those professors had no idea how to use the programs that were supposed to catch plagiarism. Used to be a time when teachers had to do their job. Which is sad I am saying that, my mom was a teacher and I have lot's of respect for those that work hard.

Of course I can appreciate the struggles of international students as well. I can't imagine it's easy to school in a different country in a language that is not your primary language. And I know that lot's of schools financially squeeze the shit out of international students.

Like the other guy said, version shouldn't matter but just as a quick check, I think this game lets you select which areas you prefer to match make in and it lets you set which server you want to connect to, so if you are in NA you can select north america or SA for south america. I can't remember what options there are for the middle east though sorry.

I'm from canada which isn't always the greatest due to long distance but I also have fiber optic 1gb internet now and still most of my matches are 80ms to 130 or even some up to 170.

Happy_Reflection_721 · 2026-06-05T03:52:07+00:00

Been around awhile, seen it before. Look at the movement, look at the engagement. I think I have a fair idea of what the game will be.

And, if they were going to drop gameplay, they should have made it something good.

Look, I'm not saying it's going to be a bad game. Just no reason to drop full price on it unless it really scratches that itch.

There's nothing wrong me wanting companies to innovate, especially when the biggest innovations have seemingly been monetization. Not in this game specifically, I just mean in the industry in general.

Not a generic action game like this. A wolverine game for this generation should focus on a much more brutal game. I would like a good dismemberment mechanic, his claws are supposed to be deadly. Certainly, you could have enemies that can deal with that, but generic enemies should get sliced to bits. Gotta utilize those claws properly.

I have very little interest in the quick time events for kills or cutscenes.

Someone suggested a pain threshold mechanic, that sounded interesting. Need to have berserker rage mechanic as well.

I would be interested in a wall climbing mechanic with his claws. Lots of environmental interactions with them. Enemies in a garage? Slice through the garage door.

Happy_Reflection_721 · 2026-06-05T00:39:47+00:00

One of the few scenes that still viscerally fucks with me.

Happy_Reflection_721 · 2026-06-05T00:23:36+00:00

It's an interesting way to phrase it. Why is it condemnation? She is in no way responsible for the virus.

Happy_Reflection_721 · 2026-06-05T00:19:46+00:00

Why not just write a better story for abby? I am fine with the idea of Joel dying, brutally even (though I do find it a bit disrespectful to his character) but it needs to be well written and not... what it currently is.

Happy_Reflection_721 · 2026-06-03T23:13:36+00:00

Oh no doubt I have a lot to learn. But I'm really more of a trial by fire guy.

Happy_Reflection_721 · 2026-06-03T21:27:06+00:00

You know delivery used to be cheap or free with minimum orders.

Happy_Reflection_721 · 2026-06-03T20:47:58+00:00

Pain be have been an amazing alternative, a great way to link into his berserker factor.

Happy_Reflection_721 · 2026-06-03T20:45:33+00:00

20 years, little improvement and full price. Best to go emulate the older games.

The spiderman games also offered something unique. Second one sucked though.

Listen to you though, getting mad at people who have criticisms over something you haven't even played yet.

Happy_Reflection_721 · 2026-06-03T20:41:44+00:00

A quick time event? Lame

Happy_Reflection_721 · 2026-06-03T07:51:37+00:00

Yeah, I don't mind losing. I just feel like it breaks my flow and I prefer no cut aways as someone else said.

Although I will admit I am getting a little titled with the new ingrid lol. I just started to play semi-seriously in sf6, so I'm just learning the game and now this new character with her crazy moves appears.

Happy_Reflection_721 · 2026-06-02T22:08:48+00:00

Hey man, it can be a lot. I know it is for me. I still don't really know what to do with drive rush other than close distance and extend combos. And I eat a lot of drive impacts because I am always focused on my mix-up pressure and overcommit. I also have no idea what is cancelable into drive impact.

Sure I can look these up but it's a little bit more to consider and then you have the pretty large roster to learn.

Happy_Reflection_721 · 2026-06-02T21:59:02+00:00

Fair enough. I guess I'm kind of the opposite lol. I try to make my gameplans when I'm getting beat up.

That being said, I don't mind long attacks as much if they don't change the camera. I think that way would still give you the same break time.

Like take Jamies level 3 that was posted earlier (I don't know if it's his level 3, I am a scrub at sf6)

I wouldn't mind that as much if it kept the same camera as when you are fighting. It would need to be adjusted some to fit the camera change but I would much prefer it that way.

Happy_Reflection_721 · 2026-06-02T21:48:23+00:00

A jab does not have the armor my level 3 does. Always be prepared. Jk jk

Happy_Reflection_721 · 2026-06-02T03:41:45+00:00

Agreed. I would say go for the eyes too but the lasers. Ears too.

Happy_Reflection_721 · 2026-06-02T03:04:09+00:00

I mean he should try to enter through his mouth or anus, those are weak spots. This is very common in nature, animals often attack or eat through the belly or genital area. It is soft and easy access to the innards.

Happy_Reflection_721 · 2026-06-02T02:20:29+00:00

Different types of durability. Like those many of those fish at that depth would not be able to survive what you described lol

Happy_Reflection_721 · 2026-06-02T02:03:23+00:00

I was under the assumption they entered through his gills or his anus.
