    Lil Majin couldn't punch his way out of a wet paper bag vs Eileen. Dude He fought kept spamming eye poke and he started saying some stupid shit and his mindless drones was in agreement. Same with juice box. He said Goh sucks cause one of his attacks wasn't in his favor on block so some ass pirate started running with the idealogy Goh sucked smh

    I thought both Max and (definitely) Juicebox are big fans of VF and were happy with Ultimate Showdown so far though?

    Has nothing to do with them being happy or not. I’m talking about the influence they have in mindless drone to disregarded a game off of the strength of how they feel about something they couldn’t get over. All dude respect MadeManG74 I know these cats ain’t sticking around. Once the luster wears off... they on the next shiniest thing (GG:Strive).

    I think Juicebox will stick around, since he was playing VF5FS months before US even was a thing. Max (and many others who are playing it on stream now), I agree will move on when other new games come out. I can't even be mad, I guess that's his income now, so he has to stick with what's new.

    And yeah I definitely agree i hate the way people just agree with what other say online sometimes, and it's really frustrating.

    Right, its monkey see monkey do, as sds said. There'll be a new flavor of the month, and with it half of the current player base will be gone.

    Idk, enjoy the numbers while they last, is all I'm going to say

    I fully expect the mainstream to move on eventually, they do with everything. I'll continue supporting the game with regular tournaments/meetups though, if we could keep a scene alive Final Shodown after so many years, I think we can get a healthy community for Ultimate even easier.
    Hopefully people will bring this game to locals when they come back and keep playing online, even if it's through discord/VFDC match-making.

    Outside of the obvious netcode, I think vf5us is my favorite fighting game in modern era. I used to be much more Tekken and Tekken 5DR was absolute masterpiece, but it started loosing track post then by adding some weird non martial arts characters.Today VF is the best imo the only game that is 3D technical fighting game while focusing mainly on martial arts.

    But they need to fix netcode ASAP or the game will die faster that FS. Personally i already stopped VFUS online.

    Yeah.... Juicebox is doing a noble thing. That’s the only reason why I’m granting him a pass on his stream. Everybody else. I gotta stream snipe. I gotta kill em in broad day to weed em out. Just to see who really wanna Stick around.

    Right! The ranks will end up just like Vanilla VF5. People reach name ranks early while competition was white hot. Then hide off to the won’t get demoted. Knowing how I feel about video games and the ones I love. This hurts me to no avail cause VF don’t deserve this. VF6 better be some kind of groundbreaking video game. With stuff never done before. I hate to say it.... but I kinda hope it goes a moderated Fightering Vipers route with a meter for Counter moves. Not supers but Counter moves. they really need the flash

    Well I guess it says a lot about their confidence in their netcode lol

    I actually thought the fact that VF is getting so much attention now, and it's literally just Final Showdown with a new coat of paint, shows that audiences are willing to try it and enjoying it even without having supers/counters/meter/guests etc.
    I actually think the fact that it has none of that supposed 'flash' makes it stand out even more, since every other fighting game seems to be ripping each other off in those respects. It's so refreshing to see something like VF that feels truly different again.

    I respect it. But..... It don’t feel different to me. It looks different. FS never looked outdated to me in the first place. Also... if Sega choose to adopt mechanics from other games they made for more appeal... I’m all for it. Vipers was as original is they come in 95. VF included walls in 3 right? Something vipers did first. It’s time they flex creative muscle again

    Zeke No lie I tells no tales. He didn’t even bother to evade or 2p into anything rising on CH. I watch the shit and just turned. Then I was watching Juicebox play theory fighter all day handing out false info then telling people to do certain tactics like it will stay solid forever not understanding the advance tactics used to get around certain stuff. I explained to him getting hit with Non-counter elbow you can fuzzy a or CDC a throw afterward he tells me it cannot be done at that frame disadvantage. I didn’t even argue.. I just broke out of the stream and went to mind my business. I’m not dealing with this madness.

    Running into trophy spammers is getting pretty annoying. Are you guys reporting them? Should I bother?

    Smh. Doesn't even know what nitaku is. You can't teach people the game if you yourself don't even know basics. Yikes

    I think the saying "blind leading the blind" applies really well here
