Samurai Shodown |OT| You Have to Work for This "W"

I hate low-poly models. Wish I could have a setting to disable them. The NEW models are low poly enough as it is.
I want better fidelity SNK games. The mechanics are too good to be trapped in last-gen graphics. (SF4 competes with SamSho).
Fingers cross KOF XV looks better than KOF14...

I checked today and the DLC is there for me to download and now says I own the Season Pass. I don't know if me contacting Xbox Support fixed it or if SNK did
Balance patch coming soon tho! Wu Ruixiang Clan might be nothin to fuck wit.
So the Xbox problems are solved for some players but people are still having problems to download the season pass content.
The people at SNK are truly incompetent.

Man, I've been playing only a few matches a day but it seems like they've all been really good this week connection wise. I've had 1 round that lagged for a couple seconds barely. I don't know if the search terms are working better, I'm lucky or they've made htings a little better.
It's probably the latest netcode patch, impressions have been pretty positive since that hit.
Further improvements are planned apparently to hit together with the upcoming balance patch.

Rimururu feels mid tier at best, but my early assessment is she's low tier.
A lot of the nasty set-ups she has can be circumvented easily if the opponent is aware of them, and her oki is surprisingly lackluster outside the corner.
Stubby normals in this game are also extremely limiting, and even Rimu's ice pokes are on the stubby side. Wish they made those hitboxes a little bit longer.

Ye her corner game is the only strong part, but even then other characters can be more oppressive. Nothing particular evasive either like nakoruru
Still gonna main because she's sick
Who did you contact exactly? It still is not working for me. According to someone on gamefaqs Microsoft wouldn't even deal with them. One person had luck with Athlon but I can't even find a contact email.
Just regular customer support. He said they had to move my case to his supervisor
1.11 Patch notes
darli's hammer might actually be fast enough to deflect fireballs now.
lots of recovery buffs, but far medium slash being cancellable is a great quality of life change.
no invul on the hard super punch makes it even more YOLO now :(

Finally, I can freaking AA with Wu. All of the buffs they gave her are awesome.
I also played Shiki after being frustrated at how bad Wu was (funny, that, since Wu was on her level). So with that vast number of buffs, she feels way better too.

After the Netcode patch it's pretty solid. Not GGPO levels of good but a lot better than Capcom/Arksys netcode.
The bar connections seem to not be indicative of the actual connection quality, but other than that it's good.
There's a decent amount of people playing, and most of my matches have solid connections. I'm in Los Angeles, tho.
The netcode is delay, so curb your expectations.
New patch really shaking things up holy crap!
Didn't expect this many changes!
As someone who predominantly played Darli, I'm blown away by how much like a beast she now feels.
Also Kyoshiro has legit potential to win a tournament now.
Rimu is now worst in game. No question.

I've only had about 1 laggy match in 25 or so and that was only a couple seconds where the match felt bad. I live in Iowa....so there are three okay sized cities around and then four hours in most directions to any big city. Much better than it was for me at least.
Jubei is the perfect character for older, casual dudes. His moveset is easy, and even his patch notes are easy.
It's a shame his WFT got a little extra startup, because I spam the shit out of that when I have it, but I'm not too worried about it.

Those Kyoshiro changes, mmmmBOY we are gonna feast tonight!
Great patch all around--it's the kind of thing you'd expect months down the line. Good on SNK to shake things up so early!

I like the idea of him, but as a man in your category I feel like I cant make use of his counters and so he's a kind of half-character the way I'd play him.
Yeah, I haven't figured out how to effectively use the counter specials, either. The only one I can get somewhat reliably is the jump-in counter, and that's only against opponents who jump-in too much. But he has the best pokes in the game, in my opinion, which I feel like makes up for the limited use of a good portion of his specials. And spamming his WFT is hilarious (hopefully still, after this patch).
Kyoshiro feels so much better now. His far medium buttons are about as fast as any other character's now, particularly his crouching M--it's like night and day! His L pole kick special feels like it's safe, or at the very least, just jab punishable. The Frog also deals big damage now--200 damage raw! 240 with rage! Our resident kabukiman just got waaaay better.
Earthquake's changes are also great. He moves so much faster now--holy shit. His walking animations look like they were put on fast forward, and his EX Buzzsaw comes out damn near instantly--it now combos from his standing light at close range(but still doesn't at max range).

HOLY SHIT Darli gets a far standing C off a forward throw now. That's a free 30 percent off top. This along with 2B connecting without a microwalk and 5B being cancellable on the first hit now? Y'all about to embrace this death.
You can also do jC into far 5C now.
Close 5M and the closest possible far 5M combo into WFT now as well.
Apparently I've heard she can combo into 236C as well? Didn't test that myself yet.
Wait for real?? What's the spacing on that? It can't just be off any jump C.
Do the lobbies now just work like other fighting games and it's mostly an automatic process?
