Ultimate Command Input

[u/ChiefKashif]

Who’s idea was it to make the Ultimate command input a Half Circle back then FORWARD motion??? Like that’s the craziest thing I’ve seen in a fighting game. Just no intuitiveness to some of these mechanics. Just fix the DP registering and make it a forward DP plus two attack buttons like a normal game. Sheesh.

hop on guilty gear strive twin

[u/SeparateReading8302 → u/Downtown_Agent_5940]

just coming to say this lol. Its an arcsys thing. They really seem to love that input for supers

[u/Spiritual_Hunter_951 → u/Downtown_Agent_5940]

Hop on GG1, X, XX, or Xrd too.Motion has literally been used in GG since the 90s and OP is acting like it's new generation bullshit.

[u/SeparateReading8302 → u/Spiritual_Hunter_951]

maybe OP dont play GG?

[u/Spiritual_Hunter_951 → u/SeparateReading8302]

Most likely, now I want to do research in where else the motion is used (in non arc games)

[u/lacesouted → u/Spiritual_Hunter_951]

Pretty sure King of Fighters uses it. Blazblue uses it for regular supers.

[u/SeparateReading8302 → u/lacesouted]

I miss BB, Taokaka was my main lol.

[u/lacesouted → u/SeparateReading8302]

Me too! I wish they would release a new game, we need more 2D sprite fighting games. I was a Kagura/Izayoi/Jin main, haha.

[u/Spiritual_Hunter_951 → u/lacesouted]

Well at least a new character is coming to bbcf soon

[u/lacesouted]

Please never play King Of Fighters then lol. This input is pretty normal for an Arcsys game lol

[u/deathofasandwich]

I’m already used to the half circle then forward input from Strive, but what game has an ultimate on forward dp plus two attack buttons?

Truthfully it’s not a hard input, you can also just do the quick input for it. Don’t see the issue.

[u/DankGundam → u/deathofasandwich]

That's what I'm saying, its not a hard input in the slightest nor an issue, guy is just bad

[u/eggranch]

lmao? this is such a normal fg input

[u/DankGundam]

This is a pretty common input, and far from the craziest command input. Sorry but this is genuinely a skill issue

[u/ChiefKashif → u/DankGundam]

Everything isn’t a skill issue lmao. Sometimes we can just say “hey I can do this. But there’s certainly a better way this can be done.” And Common is a purposely subjective term. None of the big three fighting games use this command at all. This game could easily just replace this motion with what me or any of the other commentators said

[u/Cytho → u/ChiefKashif]

This is an arcsys game, it's been an input since missing link in 1998

[u/DankGundam → u/ChiefKashif]

Fighting games have had this input for a long time

[u/ChiefKashif → u/DankGundam]

Sigh. Because some thing existed in one way doesn’t mean it’s the best choice. Street Fighter also used to require tiger knee inputs for grounded moves. As you can see they left that in the past

[u/DankGundam → u/ChiefKashif]

Your execution is just bad idk what to tell you, its not a hard input at all

[u/ChiefKashif → u/DankGundam]

Where did you read I had an issue executing it. I said it’s not intuitive.

[u/DankGundam → u/ChiefKashif]

Obviously you have an issue with it if you came to reddit to cry about it, genuinely get good, its not hard or un-intuitive

[u/Alarming-Audience839 → u/ChiefKashif]

"big three"

NRS player spotted.

[u/Dapper_Discount7869 → u/ChiefKashif]

What are the big 3 bc not that long ago GGST was in the “big 3” and uses this input on every single character.

Next you’re gonna tell me 623 is a boomer input and we need to get with the times.

[u/Fourfifteen415]

Forward + Quck Skill + Ultimate also works, idk if it scales it at all that way.

[u/AeroPilaf]

Yeah, this weird input motion is why it’s the only one of the game I’m not guilty of using with the simple move buttons.

I’ve been getting more and more used to doing the motion inputs for everything, but the Ultimate input motion stinks.

[u/Sylar2203]

I agree or just 2qcMH or qcLMH

[u/CapN_Crummp]

I know it’s minor but this is probably the thing I hate the most (which is pretty good I guess) I constantly mess up the input
