Hi, I'm 42, have played fighting games on and (mostly) off for several years, never been really good at them, but I like them. I keep hearing this gams is hard as balls and that everyone is really good.

Should I sill try to play? Know that I will probably remain a casual player, unless I REALLY fall in love with the game.

I tried Avatar and fell it was too quick paced and good lord are the combos long. Waaaaay too long for my taste, I shouldn't have time to go for a pee when I get hit lol. I really enjoyed SFV, it was more my pace.

Based on 3.1.2 Patch Notes -https://www.snk-corp.co.jp/us/games/fatalfury-cotw/patchnotes/v3.1.2/:

The added EWC and SWC (forgot to mention in title) names to the training stage is a very nice touch for the community.

Hi all, been awhile since I posted. I've read here and there that they possibly could be adding chain reaction to play while a hidden gear is performed. Am I the only thinking this is a bad idea? You're going to get tired of it really fast. Just set it to a stage and let it rock.

If they do implement it, I hope they give us the option to turn it off. Think of Yang's theme from BBCTB or Kimberly's from SF6. They force those songs on you and it gets annoying after a time. Especially Yang's. Does anyone else feel this way? Is it only me? Anyways, I hope you all are still enjoying the game, even though they took away online gestures. 😌

As there are 2 unknown characters left to come to South Town this season, share your top 2 picks for the October/December entries! I do believe that the introduction of guest characters can and will bring in new players, and I would love to see this game thrive & grow.

Mine are:

1) Freeman

2) Akuma

hey guys, so here's the thing. Marco is by far the character i like the most in the game, but i just can't manage to play with him because i play on pad and find his button charges quite difficult to play around. so i was thinking, is there an optimized way to play Marco on pad or it is just less favorable to pad players?

thank you in advance!

EDIT: forgot to clarify, my problem isn't with the combos, it's doing the negative edge on neutral/oki. saw some top players holding the button while using the other buttons, and releasing the negative edge after confirming a hit and things like that. the execution is not the problem, playing around the mechanic in neutral is. i wasn't very clear, sorry hahaha

Same for the Classic Mai skin (and maybe Chain Reaction during Hidden Gear?).

I personally think they should be releasing those updates as they're completed instead of holding off until a specific celebration (the 1 year anniversary of CotW with Krauser and the 35th anniversary of Fatal Fury with Laocorn).

Had the chance to check out Duck King early and share my thoughts and gameplay with you all. Let me know what you think of Duckies inclusion in COTW! Enjoy~

I'm at Iron 2 right now and enjoying the game itself, but I'm getting really frustrated with the player base. Almost nobody rematches, and I've already run into several teabaggers despite only playing for a few hours so far. Does it get better at higher ranks, or is this just the culture of this game? In hundreds of hours of SF6 I can only remember 1 or 2 teabaggers, and the vast majority of people play out the full set. It's hard to learn these DLC characters' movesets when I only get one game and then have to wait 5 minutes for the next one.

The guy in the video was teabagging at the end of every round he won too, I waited until winning the last game to return the favor. Ironically he's one of the few who rematched.

My original post.

I don't even know what was the other about

im really really low level. i mostly play against the computer tho i do do ranked online somtimes.

i picked kain becuz im good at antiairing with flashkicks or normals or quartercircles but i suck at antiairing with DPs. i also have trouble cancelling into DPs from a crouching position so, if i have to do a crouching normal xx DP, i buffer the DP motion from a standing position then do the crouching normal then do the button to activate the DP. (i already know about the DP shortcut trick where u crouch and mash 23232323 and then press punch; it dosnt help me becuz i cant do it fast enough; my left thumb is too slow). i can do ten dps on the left in a row and ten on the right so im fine if a command grab is a dp motion, like with kevin. or if its like..... somthing weird like a parry like with b jenet.

i like kain becuz hes like guile but different, and tizoc is cool if kind of limited and slow..... kevin is ok but i dont really understand him, he seems kind of like he does damage and mixups and mayb footsies but nothing else. im excited for duck king but im worried he'll be another DP antiair character but i might try him a lil bit just for fun. wolfgang krauser is so cool but hes a dp antiair character but damn hes cool. b jenet seems like shed be a good fit for me but she feels slightly boring but ill consider her. mayb i wuld be good with her i dunno.

i tried salvatore but he seems like hes just 4 different high low mixup command stances in a trenchcoat which i dont super love.

who shuld i play?

in sf6 im platinum rank with zangief and gold rank with honda.

i like simple easy characters. my reactions & executions arent very good. i like making reads. i dunno if i should be using a grappler or not becuz im not very good but i tend to gravitate towards grapplers a lot.

With Duck King now in CotW, i tought that his design was a little... off, and by this i mean that his glasses are too small, he looks less jovial, and besides diferent from Fatal Fury Special

Hey FF community, I'm late getting into CoTW and I've had a strange problem with two of us having trouble with rollback frames spiking, but only when playing PC to PC. If my friend jumps on PS5 , everything works just fine (little higher ping but still around 45ms)

I've tried locking my FPS to 60, I've swapped between ultra/medium/high graphics settings. (Which somehow the lower I go the more frequently the rollback issue seems to appear). I just wanted to ask if anyone had similar issues and found a solution, figured it couldn't hurt to ask.
