Char and fighting style you want for a future VF?

Re: Char and fighting style you want for a future

Awesome!

Although some moves in the videos are somewhat represented in VF Sega could benefit by checking some of the Vids out (if they haven't already)


VF goes farther along these lines that all of the other fighting games, they might as well go all the way! add more realism...
more legitimate styles.. its all good...

 

Re: Char and fighting style you want for a future

I have always really wanted to see a boxer in VF.
Karate would be cool, maybe a style of Karate that has never been used before like Wado Ryu(sp?)
I want Taka back if it can be balanced and make sense.
Tai Chi would be a dream come true for me.

 

Re: Char and fighting style you want for a future

maybe sega is worried about the Tekken sumo.,., /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/confused.gif

Is there any official word on why they took him out in the first place? Also it seems like Karate and Tai Chi, Does anybody know whether Sega has specific reasons for not including them?

 

Re: Char and fighting style you want for a future

The ripples of fat were to hard to calculate.

 

Re: Char and fighting style you want for a future

We want the sumo fighter back! Taka Arashi > Ganryu from Tekken

Listen to the crowd!

Maybe for VF5 Evo or waterver is gonna be called.

 

Re: Char and fighting style you want for a future

How about a heavyweight striker?
After all, the heavyweights mostly end up being grapplers.
It would be fun having a pure sttriker as big as Wolf or Jeffry.

Which striking style do you think would suit such a character?
The only style I can think of is Kyokushin Karate, as they have some heavy practitioners.

 

Re: Char and fighting style you want for a future

Boxing, Muay Thai

Wushu . . ?

 

Re: Char and fighting style you want for a future

Wushu means a competition which you show your tecnique without an opponent, just like a dance. Wushu is a competition context not a martial art's style

 

Re: Char and fighting style you want for a future

. . . . then whatever style Jet Li uses in his movies! lol!

 

Re: Char and fighting style you want for a future

Dunno, think that since fighting has kind of evolved and fighters combine many different techniques, I think the characters personality is probably as important as his specific style.

I'd kind of like to see a blind man, because it would highlight how much of a badass the guy is....

Re: Char and fighting style you want for a future

Seriously bad blind man.

Re: Char and fighting style you want for a future

I don't think a blind man would add anything to the game, and ground fighting would't look very good.

The game should still concentrate on the stand up fighting, just add more moves for Vane when she takes someone down.

About the boxer with high and mid mixups, i don't know if that's a good idea, i used to play like that when i played tekken, that was way back in tekken 4, i played paul and heihachi the same way, punch, punch, tile splitter, punch, tile splitter, repeat, change timing and order.

But knowing Sega, they would probably make it look a lot better.


I think all characters should have rivals, for Akira his rival should be a japanese Karate fighter ( karate versus kung fu), for Brad it should be a Cuban boxer, for Jeffery, it should just be taka, for wolf, we already have el blaze.

The tkd fighter should be Sarah Bryant, and she should wear a tkd gi. She should be able to change stances at will like her big brother.


For lion, his rival should be a chinese praying mantis fighter who wants to kill lion because he practices a fake or bastardized mantis stle, this guy would have a single fingered mantis claw as opposed to lions two fingered mantis claw, and the moves would be different too. Smilar size and weight.


Lei fei's rival should be a Wu tang style fighter with white hair. Shaolin versus Wu tang, classic kung fu fare.

Sega should kill off lau chan, his kung isn't real at all, there is no such thing as tiger and swallow fist. Wu tang guy should replace lau.


Shun's rival should be another old kung fu master, who wants to settle an old score for losing a majong match to Shun 50 years ago. Style should be confusing like shuns, probably plum flower fist or pakua palm.


They should change pai' style, its supposed to be ensei ken or lost track kung fu, but the thing is, its hard to identify a style like lost track fist, unlike mantis, monkey or baji.


There's no way to tell if pai' moves are realy lost track kung fu.

They should just change her style to snake fist or crane fist.

Pai's rival should be Eileen.( Monkey fist is best, no! Snake fist is best!, let's fight!! let's see who's the best kung fu girl in Vf!)


Vanessa' rival should be a female pro wreastler like tina in doa. Caucasian but with black hair, heavy as Vane but tall as Sarah. Maybe there can be a three way rivalry between Sarah Vane and this Amazon Wreastler, to see who is the best pretty female fighter in VF.


Goh's rival should be Aoi, Judo versus Aikido!! (warped monster jukoka versus prim and proper Aikidoka!!)


Jacky and Kage should be rivals, grudge match, ninja versus jkd fighter!!

 

Re: Char and fighting style you want for a future

Does it seem like Goh suddenly became popular because of Fedor?

 

Re: Char and fighting style you want for a future

Goh popular b/c of fedor? wtf?

No such thing as tiger fist? wtf?

 

Re: Char and fighting style you want for a future

Easy there tiger. Just meant the precedence of Judo and ground fighting. Or is a players choice purely based on potential advantage with cultural style not a factor there Einstein?

For the record, life isn't an rpg, registered in 1999 doesn't grant you enough experience points to disrespect somebodies subjective opinion. Ok Genius?

 

Re: Char and fighting style you want for a future

Subjective opinion? Last I checked Goh was still damn near bottom of the barrel in terms of who is played the most.
To be honest, I don't think PRIDE has much of any influence on Sega (I would be happy if they did).
In Japan, you will find that about 90% of the players (including the top players) gravitate towards the more powerful characters. Thats basic human instinct to want to be able to win.

 

Re: Char and fighting style you want for a future

I see what you're saying . . . and I don't know too much about the many different styles out there, but the main reason I bring up Jet Li is a lil biased and based on seeing game characters modeled after actual people/characters.

Examples being Marshall/Forest Law (Bruce Lee), Lei Wulong (Jackie Chan), Raven (Blade . . though not so much stylewise! lol), etc., etc. . . Jet Li deserves a character made in his likeness, right?!? OH . . . and now that I think about it, Van-Damme and Bolo Yeung (sp?) haven't had that honor yet either!

 

Re: Char and fighting style you want for a future

Oh shit - BOLO!!! Now that would kick ass!

 

Re: Char and fighting style you want for a future

I meant popular with players despite not being high tier, more than with Sega. Shouldn't have insulted you, my post comes across too strong, I'd had a couple of beers, and I tend to be overly self - righteous.
