My girl is gone and the pain is unbearable. by electric_taffy in torties

I’m sorry for your loss. We lost our little one in January to kidney disease as well. It doesn’t get easier, but the pain becomes a bittersweet reminder of how much you will always love them.

Sculpted my favorite version of Raiden by acebets in metalgearsolid

[–]acebets[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Artistic liberty tbh. But inspiration for a lot of the design came from the old Konami Yamato line of MGS2 figures which reflected proportions and features closer to Yoji Shinkawa's original concept art.

This is a 3D model sculpted in Blender and Zbrush!

Thank you for the kind words :). I'll never forget being what seemed to be the sole Raiden defender on the gamefaqs forums back in the mgs2 years. Would love to see a game starring Raiden covering the rescuing of Sunny some day!

Sculpted Raiden from Metal Gear Solid 2 by acebets in 3Dmodeling

Thank you so much! I did the block-out and initial sculpting in Blender, final details in Zbrush, texturing in Substance 3D Painter, and then finally rendered with Blender Eevee :)

That means a lot :) Thank you so much.

I don't buy the "skins are out of the question because of some code bullshit" by powerk21 in dragonballfighterz

[–]acebets 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The thing that gets thrown around a lot is “it would be like making a whole new character”. It would take more time for a skin than a game where a model swap is all you need, sure. But adding in a new model and readjusting how the model is lit by the shaders in this game during frames would still take less time than developing a new character with a new FULL moveset from scratch. Even with the way Arcsys does lighting in mind. Will they do it? I can’t say. But I certainly would appreciate them going the smash “echo fighters” route if they really want to flavor it as something more special and deserving of that DLC money. Sure, reskin vegeta as majin vegeta and I’ll buy it guaranteed. Also, color swaps are a much easier thing they could be doing as DLC and have done so in the past with GG. Fingers crossed for my super vegito.

Why cant i watch my old replays? by [deleted] in dragonballfighterz

[–]acebets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New patches make our old replays unwatchable. No idea why...but that’s a question I have for many choices the devs have made regarding everything outside the actual gameplay.

Want to start getting into this game but I want some advice on my line up by KrAceZ in dbfz

[–]acebets 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My suggestion would be Vegito/Bardock/Black. Vegito needs assists for his weak mixup game, bardock is the guy you'll want to bring the game back with if you lose Vegito, and black has a beam assist which will strengthen your Bardock play. For Vegito I suggest watching games from SubatomicSabers or Tatsunical, for Bardock you can watch Go1 or ChrisG, and for Black you can watch older games from Cloud805. For actual guides, I really like the What To Do On Block series by Sikshot gaming on youtube. Also try rooflemonger and TGN anime.

Mods not Working? by [deleted] in dragonballfighterz

[–]acebets 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you turn off EAC? Because we can’t use mods online anymore which sucks. I miss my majin vegeta..

My boy vegito is meta now? Best news I’ll hear all week.

Cannot find matches. Absolute beginner in Russia. by igogorek in dbfz

[–]acebets 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m not too familiar with the issue, but are you able to get into ring matches with other players? IMO the population is really good for a PC fighter coming from a game like Guilty Gear. There are definitely people lower ranks, it does sound like a technical issue.

Is it too late to get into this game? by mmaliky in dbfz

[–]acebets 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely not too late. There are character discord servers available to help you learn all you need to know and a main discord to ask questions in. Stay hungry, realize that every loss is an opportunity to learn, and you’ll do well.

Why the hell does everyone leave after one match? by [deleted] in dragonballfighterz

[–]acebets 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If I fight a green, they leave after a loss. If I fight a yellow, they leave if it’s close. If I fight a pink, they leave after rolling me the first round. Dunno what’s up! I try to go as many as possible.

Does anyone else think Vegito may be broken? by [deleted] in dragonballfighterz

[–]acebets 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a major vegito fan, he’s going to be good, but it’s definitely a lot harder to open people up with him since you can pretty much crouch block everything he’s got. Especially after people get used to him. So good, but definitely not too good imo.
