Extremely disagree. Street Fighter characters, sure. But the links are now 2x easier to hit for quite a few SF characters [i.e. Ryu's cr.MP > cr.MP - without having to plink all the time].
The Tekken characters retain some of their standard 3-hit, 4-hit, 5-hit chain combos, and in many instances, they're cancellable into special moves. At first, I was sad they're 10-hit combos aren't implemented into gameplay, but after some Training mode and a few of their Trials, their 10-hit combos are no longer necessary.
Run through Trial mode with Tekken characters, you'll see that combos are NOT the "vast majority" of their combos.

hey guys, I didn't get the game but I play ssfiv often
just curious if plinks, double tapping or whatever people do to hit those "difficult" links work in this game as well...
tried googling, nothing came up

how can you disagree? a link is a link regardless of how difficult it is to do.
if the link has a larger window than it previously had, is it not still a link?
the only combos in the game that aren't links are L to H chains (universal) and hits you do in juggles, which in order to get those juggles you're going to end up linking (to a chain), otherwise you'll get blocked and punished. if you throw out chains into launchers and get blocked, you are open.
akuma =/= to the entire roster tho. akuma's trials are a mix of links and chains into ex moves.

Fixed.
Sorry for the misunderstanding. Above, I wasn't disagreeing with you with the Street Fighter roster, aside from any target combos [i.e. Ibuki] that are still in-game. I was disagreeing with you on the Tekken roster. My mention of the links was just to touch on how it's really not that serious in this iteration of SF; how much easier it is, etc..
All linking aside, as I previously said, they've kept many Tekken chain combos [known left/right combos, known Kazama combos, etc.].
Again, I disagree with a "vast majority" of the combos being combos involving links, because that's not even the case for 1/2 of the roster [the Tekken half], unless what you were looking for were each character's signature 10-hit strings.
Plinking still works. Much easier to land your links now compared to SSF4/SSF4AE, despite the faster pace of gameplay in SFxTK.

went on a 27 game win streak last night, beat someone with 3900 & 2500 points. dude was using Gief x King & grappling me after his recovery rolls, but I managed to clutch it out. My team is Bison + Guile for now, using Iron Wall gems & just playing defensively while zoning.
They really need to patch online play, tho.

Tekken characters play exactly like their Tekken counterparts... their moves + Tekken based combos are just weird, I'm not used to it. Exactly why I have been avoiding Tekken characters

Picked it up last night and it's cool. Tried doing some of my marvel combo notions on some teams, definitely not working haha. So far I'm running Ryu/Paul. I definitely wanna learn how to use King though

Rented it at red box as I'm a big Tekken fan but I hated it. I'll wait until TT2 comes out.

I'm feeling the game. Was dude serious that said UMVC3 is the best fighting game out? I hope not...lol A lot of people coming from UMVC3 will be easily turned away because you can't just mash out combos but SFIV players will adjust easier. I'm personally coming off UMVC3 and I have no problem getting used to it. I like the pace, it's like a sped up version of SSFIV. I'll add all Xbox'ers today.

man who u telling. Jin has always been my favorite character from the tekken series and i planned to main him in this game. I went to trial mode and realized that he was too complex for me compared to street fighter characters. But i havent played a tekken game since tekken 5 and ive been playing sfiv 4 ae for a long time.Originally Posted by hongcouver604

as a tekken and marvel player...
you don't just "mash out" marvel combos. marvel has this perception of being easy or whatever and it's not. it is easier to get into because it's not in some Frankenstein stuff like sfxt but it is difficult to play at a high level. Period.
Before 6, I mained Nina. I haven't been able to do anything decent with her or some of the other tekken characters so far. I'm an alisa player in 6 and will probably be playing alisa/bob or alisa/Nina in tag 2...but I'd be surprised if she played like her tekken counterpart. Juggles don't feel right at all in sfxt. It's gonna take an adjustment to get used to them.
I take back what I said earlier about the game being mostly about links. It's more about juggles...now granted you need to link in order to get to said juggles but it's definitely more juggle based than anything. I can't call juggles chains or links...it's like in between, I guess.
Lastly, I wish I had access to alisa already. Again, I would be surprised if I could do her bnb into wall splat into chain saws.

Word, I been playing SFIV since day 1 and played Tekken casually, but I'm having a hard time adjusting to this game. I mained Bison in SFIV, and his BnB combos that worked in SFIV does not work in this game. Is it me or are Tekken characters in this game wayyyy better than the SF characters? Tekken characters inflict so much damage off of a overhead or juggle. Played someone using Julia & Kazuya and one combo took off 75% of my lifeOriginally Posted by Dakingii

i still believe that streetfighter characters have the advantage. if you play scramble room, you do not want to face a ryu/ken/akuma team

Im thinking about taking mine back even though i enjoy it because the price tag is too high for an incomplete game like this. Besides the lock of all the characters, costumes, colors, and gems, there should be no reason why the online has such a huge flaw with the sound.I know the sound doesnt bother people that much but i dont appreciate how capcom completely overlooked that and gave some bs excuse of why its like that.
