Discussion from "VF5R for console effort" thread

Haha, my friend borrowed my 4Evo quite some time ago, and... never gave it back. I'd gladly play it for fun.
Nevertheless I still love and like many before me have said, will be playing VF5 ver.B or C or whatever until another version, whatever it may be hits the consoles for sure.

@MystD
I know a person in RL who apparently is very similar to You. He is a cripple, and bans companies for some weird reasons. I know that some companies, being big and powerful (yeah, right) may seem like corporate monsters in our eyes. Seriously though... I will never be able to understand why ppl "BAN" companies and their games. To deprive yourself of the pleasure of playing an awesome game, just b/c the ppl that are behind making it, are making everything for the money, which not always coincides with what some people want.

So if I were talking about Sega now... why would I deprive myself of the pleasure of playing any future great games by Sega or the existing VF5, just b/c they kept 5R on arcades only....pffff, pointless.

This whole effort is fun, it brings the community together to pursue a common goal. Even if that goal will never be reached, I'm actually hoping it will make some people interested in what VF actually is. Who knows... even if 50 people all over the world start playing VF thanks to that... well, it's well damn worth it. That's what loving a game is

I'd even say... I don't mind hearing: "SORRY! No Virtua Fighta favu aR consoru verushion" or whatever it would sound like. It doesn't matter. What matters is finishing the document that has been started, and knowing they might actually be surprised by the effort put into it.

 

Does anyone know why they removed OM P? Is it overpowered? Is it really so strong that it needed to be removed? I noticed on the vf vids included on the disc it seems pretty strong for oki...i guess. I never noticed it being overpowered though.

 

Well I only ban em if they screwed up bigtime and the publisher is a fault not the devs. UBI screwed up Heroes of Might and Magic, which was one of my favorite series. EA screwed up Command & Conquer which was one of my favorite series. Rare was like Blizzard one of my favorite companies because you could buy every game without the need of a review until it got bought by M$shit and now produce shit. Blizzard is currently screwing up diablo, warcraft and starcraft. Now sega is screwing VF. I don't have any problem with the ban, since all of them enlisted have just produced games I didn't like since then. Main reason are that the devs do not get enough time and are too restricted. They all had potentially good titles but all of them got screwed. I dont see why I should support a publisher that's blinded by greed and fucks up my favorite game. If everyone would do that, they were forced to listen to the community. Most time I was active in the dev/publishers forums for month and activly talked about the flaws and what improvements have to be made and I wasnt alone, most of the players had the same sugesstions, whishes and criticism. They gave a shit, ignored the community and screwed up the games. I really really dont see why I should support the likes of them. I'll stay at VFDC for the time of the petition and play VF5 until I get VF5R or an alternative. But I won't wait 2+ years for the game to continue. I'll just switch to Starcraft 2, SSF4 or TK6 then. If sega does not want to invest much money in VF5R they could do a linux version for the fans. Most PC hardware can easily emulate the outdated lindbergh hardware. It would take just some month to write the emulation, cost would be very low. The fans could play the game in the west. Would be perfect, but it's never going to happen since all they care about are sales.

 

edit: Nevermind

 

A demo featuring a detailed training mode. What an amazing idea! Kudos!

 

I noticed nobody created a thread about Kamaage's campaign on the http://www.1up.com boards. I can't, I need to make 100 posts there first for thread creation permission.

 

To VFDC staff

Can I link the VFDC petition to my VF5R youtube videos?

 

Thank you

 

Yo before we send the document to Sega someone needs to do a find/replace and change VF5R -> VF5FS

 

Thankfully, my entry into the petition was already geared towards this situation more then wanting to get R

 

I support this product and/or cause.

 

Myke can we use up a few pages to add stuff from the thread Brisal started?

 

If SEGA does not do this game many fans will be dissapointed. I still believe in SEGA.

 

I'm pretty happy that at least I got a lot of things I wanted to say to Sega written down. I know they won't read it, but it was also great to see what others had to say about their love of the game. Whatever happens, right now I'm too busy getting hyped about FS to worry too much.

Again, thanks to Myke, Kamaage, akai and others for all the efforts.

 

Nobody has to redo their post in the petition . There is a feature in Msoft Word that can change every instance of "VF5R" to Virtua Fighter 5 "Final Showdown" automatically in the whole 500 pg doc .
