Never played Street Fighter and not really into fighting games, but it looks so good I plan to buy it.

...When it's on sale.

Fighting games seem annoying to rate. Because the gameplay just isnt gonna be good for a lot of people, and you cant really change that.

My experience with fighting games:

Initially:
"Ooh that looks fun and badass let's play that*
After playing:
"Ok, how do you...do literally anything other than a basic kick?"
*looks up tutorials and fan communities*
Fans:
"ok so you have to U-tech the cancel to proc the i-frame"
Me:
"...Nevermind"

Although in this review it sounds like there's an easy mode for offline play that lets you basically button mash and it throws out random attacks. I can see that being fun for party play with people who don't care about fighting games.

Sf6 has 3 control styles, I don't remember the easy mode one, which autocombos and basically plays the game for you. Then there's modern, which is closer to smash/tekken easy mode, featuring a 4 button layout instead of 6, with lmhS and using directional inputs for specials and not require opposite direction release for charge moves, but having specials do 20% less damage. Classic is the controls we know and love

You can't just press random buttons in Smash and expect to stay on the stage.
That's only feasible in Soul Calibur.

A lot of fighting games are starting to put in the work to help casuals get in. Some of the Guilty Gear games have a control mode that contexts based on range and auto combos, Dragonball FighterZ has auto combos, and Granblue has specials on one-button use a la Smash, just based on cooldowns.

SF6 as I understand has two different versions of casual controls, with two different levels of what it does for you (only one was available in the beta but they had the other planned). The lesser of the two I think is even useable online, but you do a little less damage. Someone following it closer might be able to clarify.

Anyone know if the three modes can be downloaded separately? My hard drive is almost full and I have no plans of playing world tour from everything I've read and seen--even reviewers giving the game 9s are saying the mode is trash

Ive never played a fighting game before apart from very recently guilty gear strive. A while back I tried the skull girls tutorial but couldnt complete the bread and butter tutorial where you do a long ass ground combo, launch and then long ass air combo into a super. So I never continued

been playing strive and having a lot of fun. Highest I got was floor 9 but couldnt make floor 10. It seems like every god damn player knows combos, and particularly wall combos since if they get even a single hit in Im basically dead. Even at floor 6. But despite that I managed to use May to get to floor 9 with sneaky orca supers, but it doesnt feel real since I cant do wall combos or any combos

will try street fighter as well, I already pre-ordered it. Modern mode seems like an ok way to learn but I feel like my major weakness is learning combos and modern mode wont transfer to other games and feels like cheating

One of the things that makes street fighter great is that there's usually characters that are completely viable with short or simple combo routes. In 5 I played Rashid, and never needed to do anything that was more than a 4 or 5 move combo. It looks like sf6 is moving away from that slightly, but if you end up playing a grappler then you might be able to focus on mind games and forcing the guess instead of long execution paths

Didn't Street Fighter IV on the 3DS do this due to not enough shoulder buttons and made Guile SSS tier because he didn't have to charge?

A little different, 3DS didn't have charge at all for guacamole. In this, you need to charge back for sonic boom, but you don't need to press forward to use it, Guy-ell can just hold back and hit a boom with modern controls, or flash kick without standing. It's still strong, but it's not 3DS Gwee-lay levels of busted.

Did you play the beta? Which character did you like most?

I was enjoying Kimberly and Jamie for sure, but I'm excited for Rashid to come out, and looking forward to trying marisa, Lily, and dee jay

Funnily enough, people were saying Guile might have been too broken in the SF6 betas for the exact same reason

As I understand it, Guile on 3ds was busted because he could do his specials while walking forward. So he could walk forward with a one-button Flash Kick at the ready that would stifle anything an opponent tried to do as soon as they pressed a button. They didn't try at all to balance Flash Kick around those controls.

If you still have to hold the initial direction for his specials in 6 it's fine, because he can't pop them off while walking forward.

This. Fucking Capcom. I don't typically play fighting games but am tempted. But still finishing TOTK and have Diablo IV and FF16 coming soon. This year is crazy.

I am curious if Capcom can nail the online co-op game now with Exoprimal. They haven't really had a misfire in years.

This sounds more like Street Fighter 4.

If you set the game to "modern controls" you should be able to do most anything.
