Virtua Fighter 6 in the works - Here is how Sega could ruin it

[@000shad]

1) do not innovate with 2d mechanics but 3d. More creativity in stages in that way ( some vf3 unheaven stages please). 2: Sega should not forget imortance of story and show it in the actual game this time. 3: keep the game clean and realistic, avoid cheap hit sparks. Spectacular markers that make what happen in the game more obvious can be motion captures, elegant shadow lighting visuals, sounds, environnemental destructive interaction with the stages.

[@Fighter101network]

I agree with this list. A good way to bring the game to the modern audiences without ruining the core gameplay is to add an engaging story that creates solid lore for those who are into that. Also more modes, a more robust training mode and the robust customization of the original VF5.

[@superpowerman4354]

I don’t think the slow down in Tekken 7 is a mechanic, it seems to be more of a special effect, to create suspense for the final blow. VF could use this IMO As a Legacy SF player and a legacy VF (casual) player, I completely agree VF 6 should remain pure from wild mechanics such as Armour moves, revenge meter, ex moves etc Sega making legacy franchises mainstream seems to be their emphasis right now. Streets of Rage 4 was great,fine just the way it was but now SOR5 will be 3D. We can only hope they are able maintain the purity in the franchises while appealing to the masses. Cautious optimism is recommended here. Great vid

As an OG VF player since the beginning who lost interest around VF4 to play more Tekken, I agree that VF should not adopt supers/ex bars. However VF absolutely needs more easily distinguishable hype moments that will inspire me to play, and updated character designs for the modern day. VF6 also needs way more than 2 new characters, the pattern has to stop here. VF shouldn’t evolve exactly like Tekken, but it still has to evolve in all categories.

[@michaelromeo9567]

VF can appeal casuals with story mode , great visuals , amazing and gorgeous levels. Cool characters. High End technologies , and casuals will be happy to mash buttons against CPU , play minigames , do trials. Play each other. No need to change the core system, graphics matter.

[@Fighter101network]

Yes, best route to go for the sake of the series.

[@battlemode]

Completely agree!

[@justrok79]

I'm so with you man. I really hope this new entry is a return, but also cements VF back on the throne.

[@Fighter101network]

I just hope Sega is clever enough to bring something fresh to it, without having to use all of the same ex, super, slowmo 50/50 stuff that is ruining all the modern games.

[@DontKnowDontCare6.9]

VF cant easily sit on "the throne" when its been gone for decades, while 3D fighters like Tekken built their fan base from the ground up all those years. Sega will need to prove itself.

The virtua fighteeeeeer The virtua fighter is reaaaal

[@RosaryFGC]

I am praying they keep it as traditional as possible. Just add more cool characters are this game will sell !

[@biquiba]

Virtua Fighter is back bay!

[@rodrigoshimonishi]

I agree with you, I play VF since Saturn… but remember the fact that Sega development team was hired from namco to improve Tekken in Tekken 5 and só on, also Dead pe alive, adding the crush system and bounce system afterwards. Só its not impossible to have a similar evolution comming. I prefer the old scholl VF too BTW…

[@Fighter101network]

Yes, I think Sega has to put on their thinking cap and find an innovative mechacnic that is not about supers and ex bars. On that allows VF to stay as true to its roots as possible while adding something new.

[@Grayfox82]

Separate opinion, but I’d like a VF4 remastered, with online play.

[@gedaman]

I thought Sega forgot all about Virtua Fighter. Maybe they could make another Fighters Megamix. What I really want is OutRun 3!

[@Fighter101network]

I even heard rumors of Eternal Champions, which for me is a treat because I loved Eternal Champions on the sega CD. So much fun unlocking secrets characters, stages, and fatalities. Cluckly gameplay, but it made up for it in sprite quality and fun secrets to discover.

[@CodeRed88]

You made some really good points and i agree with you on a lot. Your statement where you mentioned how VF has never been a mainstream game registered with me because you are right. Its never been and its never had to be. Similar to what you said, by making it a pure fighting game. That will set it a part and help it to stand out against the modern fighting game standard. However, I do hope that they give it a slight upgrade in some form or fashion. I do think that it will throw people off as it is not something you are used to when it comes to VF. But they should still maintaining the games identity.

[@Fighter101network]

Yes, the challenge for Sega is to bring something new to it without using the no longer fresh ex, super, and comeback mechanics of the latest games in the FGC. It has to be something that is tied to the core fighting elements that have always been a VF tradition.

[@mgamesme]

Finally someone with facts. 👍🏻

[@Fighter101network]

Thanks for watching! Let's hope a date announcement and trailer are available soon.

[@VOAN]

Of all the fighting games out there Sega is the only company that never add any super moves or rubber band mechanics to their fighting games and yes I like for them to continue to stay that one. They do however need to add new moves to some their characters and a good arcade mode.

[@Fighter101network]

Yeah new moves is absolutely fine and new characters is fine too. They just need to sligthly polish an already near perfect fighting system, but not change it.

[@robzo87]

Bring some of that VF3 flavor back into this series!!

[@Fighter101network]

I also like VF3 quite a bit. I know it is not a fan favorite, but I like it a lot.

[@johnedwardobnial2790]

I also hope that SEGA will avoid the abomination called DLC

[@Kardz6]

This...this must be talked abt more, a lot of ppl in some games with rps say "oh it has counterplay" but counterplay doesnt equal fun all the time, im reaaly...really ...really sick of games trying to appeal to the audience with these screen freezes man i just wanna play a game flowing naturally man i hope Vf doesnt bite into that aspect but im worried

[@Fighter101network]

100% agreed!

[@mega_goat]

They need change with time there is always vf5 its not going anywhere if they make vf6 with some new machinics but like I said there will always be the old game to play.

[@sagittariusseiya8310]

I'm so excited for Virtua Fighter 6 so we can finally have some competition between Tekken and Virtua Fighter. I hope Katsuhiro Harada would be happy about that. I also want Virtua Fighter live action movie for the 30th anniversary of Virtua Fighter.

[@Fighter101network]

How do you feel about VF avoiding the mistakes of trying to cater to the modern trends that killed Soul Calibur and are currently hurting the competitive Tekken community?

[@sagittariusseiya8310]

@@Fighter101network Great.

[@negative1723]

i love the original virtua fighter, and vf2 is the pinnacle of the series. i didn't like the dodging in vf3, and the uneven levels. vf4 was almost as good as vf2. but not quite. forget vf5, it was over before it even started..... too many useless characters, nerfed moves and strategies. bring it back to the original, with less characters, and more creative moves. i don't want all the flashy graphics, and crazy characters. i dont' have any faith in sega anymore, it's been too long, their games look great now, but they've forgotten the gameplay. later || | | | || | | n ega tive 1

[@ZzigZaG00NIN]

I do think they should keep VF VF but I think they could get the feel and make it mainstream I don’t like the sound it having to be niche to be enjoyed I want Tekken to have competition

[@Mdmd-h9y7u]

*NO DEI*

[@oneoone]

What does this even mean. So every VF character needs to be redesigned to look like Japanese Men to accommodate its largest player demographic?? 😂

[@nascarbryant]

K.I.S.S Keep it simple stupid….❤ No modern crap….

[@Fighter101network]

[@ArtMaster09]

Wow, you hate super moves in 3d fighters huh? Also, i want virtua fighter to thrive. I want it to be in the spotlight like the big 3. I dont want it to fall to the wayside on the shelf for another 10 yrs(no pun intended). And i like slow mo sequences. Its makes the fights feel more epic, looks awesome, and crowds hyped(granted soul calibur could did theirs better, but i didn't mind it as much) a d yes, this is coming from an old head who played the classic ones. I want my games to evolve. Not be stuck in the same old tired ass route. Let me give you an analogy. Fighting games is like having sex with a woman. The fighting games are the male and the players are the females. The mechanics are the positions being tried out during sex. You have to try out new things in order to keep the excitement going, otherwise, the female(basically the player) is gonna get bored due to male(the game) during the same routine over and over(which is sadly VF case) and go to something else more exciting(like Tekken, Soul Calibur, or uhh.....DOA?!🤨....hmmm......?). There's a reason why they put new mechanics in in new installments of fighting games. To keep things new, fresh, and exciting. Why do you think doa changed shit after doa1 or tekken change shit after tekken 3 & tag1? Virtua fighter needs a change and it needs to change for the better. Let me ask you this. Remember when they had vf characters in doa5? Remember when they had akira and the rest using power moves and supers? Did vf fans complain then? Didn't their super moves look cool? Im just curious. If not, then why would ppl complain now, especially if its done right?

[@Fighter101network]

My favorite game is super street fighter 2 turbo. No, I do not hate super moves. I would hate them being added to VF. Also, it did SC and DOA no good to add these new mechanics. They are both dead and buried. You have your opinion and I appreciate your input, but have you consdiered that giving VF supers and EX bars makes it just another generic modern title? it's no longer fresh at all. if anything, I would want the core fighting of the game to be polished for a better experience, but not to do the tired formula of all these newer games.

[@peca2r-xs1sz]

Woa lol, that whole sex comparison was cringe AF. I have to say that there are many ways to improve a game and I agree with F101 that using super moves and EX moves is anything but fresh at this point. Same goes for that slowmo tictactoe. Nothing fresh there. Hopefully VR6 brings soemthing new without having to go into those things.

[@borraichio7216]

This guy talks about DOA like its a popular and loved game in the FGC. DOA is trash and if VF players did not complain is because no self respecting player plays DOA.

[@ArtMaster09]

​​​DON'T YOU DARE compare me to those horny ass posers that play that volleyball bullshit.😑 I play fighting games for love of the fight, not to get my rocks off like those incels.😠

[@ArtMaster09]

​​​oh well. Let it be cringe, you toxic prick. It ain't my fault you can't understand the analogy.
