I'm not familiar however with how team structuring works in this game. I've been playing MvC3 since its release last year so I have an idea of how team building works in that game. Do the concepts still apply to SFxT? Or are teams meant to be built differently? IE: I tried playing Kazuya/Asuka because Asuka seems to have trouble getting in on zoners so Kazuya gets in and then tags Asuka in when given the chance. Am I somewhere on the right track? XD Indeed, you want a mobile character with good footsies and tools to both gain meter and opportunities to tag in your partner, and for your partner you want to have someone with good juggles/combo finishers. | ||

I probably won't buy this game but I have been playing a bit at work during lunch breaks with people who bring it in. I'm using Rufus/Ryu because I can just mimic what I've seen on Cross Assault and still do pretty well, and both characters have excellent versatility and damage opportunities. Very interesting to me that Rufus isn't anywhere on the PS3 Top 10. | ||

There's also concern that there's not a lot of Marduk or Nina fans so they could fall behind in knowledge there. | ||

I'm just a fighting game watcher, not player D: but from my understanding the links and what not are a lot more forgiving than in Street Fighter 2012. I believe the only 'huge' issue people are bringing up from time to time is that the clock is a little too fast. But outside of that, it's sort of an "easier" Street Fighter. | ||

But outside of that, it's sort of an "easier" Street Fighter. i don't think the links are plinkable... can anyone confirm that? i don't think it's easier. chain combos by themselves are pretty weak. i think as far as raw execution it's harder since some of the combos are guilty gear-esque. i also think there's a bigger emphasis on the high/low/throw game with faster overheads that lead to bigger damage. the game also seems faster, people seem to have quicker jumps. | ||

Links are plinkable, but most of the links are a lot easier compared to sf4, so i dont know how useful it really it, i just do it by habbit. | ||

Fighting games are pretty complex that usually require tons of precise execution and mindgames. For example, if you want to be competitive most likely you will have to learn 1 frame links to do some required combos (the latest Street Fighter series are riddled with them) . That means inputting the next move in a combo sequence in 1-x frames at a time. That's 1/60th of a second at fastest which you will have to practice for hours, and hours until it is engraved into muscle memory if you want to be consistent. A lot of casuals find that frustrating or mind numbingly boring, while some like spending tons of time in training mode. Then there's a tree of in-game decision making, mechanics and tactics that are NOT intuitive to learn as a newbie unless you talk to others and research stuff. Stuff like frame data, option-selects, kara this & that, combo vs link system, hit boxes, proper space control, wake up game setups, move properties etc. etc. a lot of which are hidden information. There are fighting game guides being sold that cover most now, but still no hitboxes  But don't let that scare you. Most people can learn all that overtime with some dedication. It's pretty rewarding and not many games have put you in constant mindgame, paper rock scissor situations at a super fast pace like fighting games do. | ||

It teaches you links in an accessible way, the mechanics are pretty intuitive, and it seems less punishing than other games. For me, the progression of best to worst fighting games to learn with is like: SFxT > MK9 > SSF4 > KoF > Anime UMvC3 not listed, because you won't learn anything playing that game, you'll just sharpen your reactions. By the way, WNF is happening right now! http://www.twitch.tv/leveluplive I agree with what he says, If you want to get into fighting games than SFxTK is a GREAT place to start while it does have a very 'advanced' system and a mishmash of technology from around the fighting game universe it definitively is a much gentler first time if you're getting into this. Of course these games serve the VERY important purpose of introducing people into the FGC and the like but I don't appreciate them the same when played as a higher level. That being said this game got dropped into a pool of sharks and it's getting torn apart because they put in bleeding out bugs like crazy, it definitely needs some fixing. Also Clockwork Orange. | ||
