In fighting games you have this term called Hit Boxes.
340


Hit Boxes is an invisible box-like area that when penetrated, counts as a "hit". While other games have Hit Boxes that are insane (see TF2), Fighting Games are often the biggest genre when it comes to arguments regarding Hitboxes so my question to you is which Fighting Game/Charcter has the most ridiclous hitboxes.

This conversation has to be had in tandem with hurt boxes. In a lot of cases you'll find those moves you think are annoying with crazy hit boxes are really the move having a decent hit box but incredibly favorable hurt box. Not the worse case but because it's the most recent a lot of Street Fighter V players are complaining about Seth's dive kick.

Vega in SF5 because to this day I cannot comprehend how SHC can't decide whether it wants to whiff or not. Sometimes it will whiff despite it not whiffing on the same setup a moment before, and the Vega discord is an eternal quest to understand what the christ makes it whiff.

I recently got into SFV and is it just me or are all the hitboxes kinda tiny? It was frustrating at first when I saw my kicks going through the foot of somebody.

Sentinels spinning body splash crossup from xmen children of the atom was so busted they stripped him of the move for life.
Hurtbox was well above the hitbox and the hitbox rapidly shifted left and right so even the player couldnt tell you which direction was needed to block this massive crossup that worked even in the corner.

Finding out that Snake's insane Brawl hitboxes possibly came from having his character model shrunk during development was a hell of a thing, arguably explains his weight to.

God this bullshit hurt so bad come ultimate. He was already good why did he need so many fucking buffs!? Arthur, Hsien Ko? Lol...naw dawg buff doom.

Wolverine just came off an od divekick that got nerfed and they decided to add buffs to another one.

Gotta say though that massive pc mod that came out for umvc3?
*chefs kiss*
So many changes done right.

It's bad. Mostly because hurtboxes don't extend
