half circle motions

[i dnt play this game]

why are half circle motions in this game stricter than KOF 2002 in a noob friendly game

[Cultured Degenerate]

Oh please. The execution barrier isn't anywhere near KOF and there are a bunch of half circle inputs that used to be for special moves that got changed to quarter circles in this game.

They're not strict at all lol
You don't even have to do 63214, you can do 624 and it will register.

Dude no 624 doesnt work. Im literally on a hitbox and tried that earlier. Dude doing a confirm into super is way harder than Kof 2002. I would know because I literally have hundreds of hours in KOF on fightcade.

Just keep training doing it instead of complaining on a steam forum lul. I use a very old ds4 with malfunctioning d-pad and I can still do it. Also, check for any driver issues or input delay. Steam drivers are a pain in the ass. Disable vsync

You don't need to input diagonal at all for the half circle motions in this game (you do need diagonals for the quarter-circle and dragon-punch motions, though, as normal).

Try it in Pratice Mode to see your inputs.

Press forward, down, back, forward and it will work perfectly as a HCB,F special, even with the input records showing no diagonal input at all.

Of course, that's kinda moot in a controller since you're going to slide your finger across anyway, but makes even more precise for keyboards and hitboxes and might allow for some extra techniques in a stick.

im literally skipping diags on a hitbox and its not registering. why are u trolling

[Ersatz]

Not even vaguely strict.

Source: I am ♥♥♥♥ at fighting games and can reliably do special moves here.

Why do you assume people trying to help are "trolling"?

Ah good im not crazy

[SolviteSekai]

i like how no matter how hard they dumb down fighting games, people immediately just beg them to dumb them down harder.

perhaps catering to these people is a mistake

I've messed around a bit trying to figure out what could possibly cause a HCB motion to not register in this game, and I think the most likely issue a player could face is the following:

If you do not input a clear "back" (not a down-back, a pure back), it won't register as a half-circle back.

So if you do your motion too quickly, you might end up hitting something like:

F, DF, D, DB

This will not register as a half-circle, you need the B in the end. I think SF and a few other games are lenient in skipping that in half-circles, so this might be where someone could feel some difference.

Since I haven't used anyone but Ramlethal, I haven't checked for this game, but I do know that in BBCF 63214 required the diagonals while 632146 did not.

[Ambreezy]

Maybe its the controller? try using a different controller/stick and see if you have the same problem. if not, maybe its an execution issue.

Oh, this might be the case as I haven't played with another character yet.

its not that hard to do, saying its harder than kof makes it seem like you dont know how to do simple imputs
