Storm 3 vs Storm 4

[Mizuki 水城 泰士]

What does this game have that Storm 3 does not? I am debating about which one to get but of course 3 is most certainly the cheaper option.

[Sharingan Warrior]

Storm 3 has a better story mode (there are actually animations instead of slideshow) but the story goes only till the battle between Naruto vs Obito using the Getto Statue. Storm 4 has a slide show in the story mode but this goes till the end of the Naruto Manga. Storm 4 Story start just after the end of Storm 3 story mode.
Storm 3 has less chars than Storm 4, Storm 4 has the option to change the leader of your ninja team during the fight (you can t do that in Storm 3).
Storm 3 has spectator mode during Tournament mode and endless battle mode, Storm 4 took that away. In Storm 3 you can turn off the mic of your opponent inside the game, in Storm 4 you can t do that, you have to disable your mic from windows and turn off your sound if your opponent start making ackward sounds during a fight.

Hope this helps you :)

Ok thanks, yeah, that helped alot, I think I'll be going for 3 unless anyone has anything else to add that may sway me otherwise.

Yeah, Storm 3 is a completely broken, unpolished mess and Storm 4 is only a slightly broken unpolished mess that may get an update tomorrow. Storm 3 is built for noobs who only care about all flash and no bang while Storm 4 was built to be easy to learn and hard to master, having a good balance of visual aesthetics and gameplay.

Storm 3 is largely unbalanced, Storm 4 is more balanced. Storm 4 has more variety of characters than Storm 3 due to combo changes in some characters. Storm 4 doesn't have moves that are unsubbable, Storm 3 does. Most of the storm 3 unsubbable moves are also unblockable as well. Storm 3 has an exploitable support combo system that allows users to cancel anything into anything with no chakra expense besides if they dash or do a jutsu in which it cancels with normal chakra depletion as opposed to the extra depletion if they just did it from a combo.

Storm 3 only allows UJ and U3 during combo after you ninja move cancel or exploit the broken support combo system, Storm 4 is more flexible on it (It lets you UJ and U3 out of combo with the expense of having 75% or so damage from the UJ/U3) Storm 3's U3 is unblockable and unsubbable at close range and deals way more damage than U3s in Storm 4.

TL;DR: Storm 3 is built for story mode and visual aesthetics, Storm 4 is built how a fighting game should be built and focuses more on actual fun combat.

Something tells me t hat wasn't actually a helpful feedback and more like trolling >_> Also, wasn't asking for your opinion of either game but how they are compared to each other. Also, if you don't like the game/s which it seems you do not then why is it that you own this one?

It wasn't trolling. I love the games, I'm just being critically honest about them. And I did compare them. Hence the tl;dr and the content of my message. I compared the two saying that Storm 3 was more geared towards story and visual aesthetics while Storm 4 was geared towards being an actual fighting game.

Ok, just seemed like alot of hate and a little offensiveness toward the players.

I had more fun with 3 but I can probably attribute that to me being younger when it came out

Honestly don't think age group matters persay, alot of people even in their late 20s and early 30s like Naruto and perhaps even older.

I can see that, I just don't pull my punches. Everyone calls me the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ of Storm 4 Discussions for a reason. As I've said, the games are only good for the purpose you want to play.

Most people that enjoy Storm 3 only care about pressing one or two buttons the whole game. They prefer story-based games and don't care about playing anything other than Story or against a couple of friends.

Most people that enjoy Storm 4 care about tiers, combos (albeit very simple), and solid mechanics that reward the player for playing more intelligently rather than just mashing.

Ok thats different from what I heard about 3 on Revolution forums. Honestly I'm just looking for an enjoyable Naruto multiplayer and these two seemed better so I was wondering which out of the two were worth it. Since your responce favoured neither it wasn't really a helpful response.

If you're looking for multiplayer, it depends on what you want. If you prefer to have 1v1 fights, Storm 4 is better. As Sharingan Warrior pointed out, Endless and Tournament does not have spectator mode in Storm 4, so if you prefer that to be enabled, Storm 3 is the way to go. If you don't mind not being able to watch your friends fight each other in Endless/Tournament (In tournament it speeds up the flow since multiple people fight at once, but in Endless it doesn't save any time.), then Storm 4 is the way to go.

The response isn't supposed to favor one or the other. As I said, it depends on what you want to do. I've already stated that you should get Storm 3 if you want more flash and less bang, but Storm 4 if you want real fighting substance. In my opinion, it's more helpful to give someone options and let them know which one is better for different preferences rather than just saying one is better than the other. When it comes down to it, neither game is better than the other in an overall sense, they're just better in different areas than the other.

Well my question was one over the other NOT why you dislike both so much. Logically 4 should be better as its a follow up thus should contain more and/or better features, perhaps even more content storyline. Sort of makes me think back in DBZ Budokai which I hated cus they made follow ons that were pretty much the SAME thing but with more added content! imo the added content should have just been DLC but this was back when we had games on the PS2 so DLC wasn't really that heard of.
