SFV’s advertising budget dwarfs that of KI’s, of that I am nearly positive.

NOTE: I am not trying to say Capcom has more ad money than Microsoft. That would be an absurd thing to say. I think the problem is stemmed from a lack of belief in the 2D Fighting Genre on behalf of the fat cats @ MS. Note also that this has nothing to do with IG, @TempusChaoti or his project staff. Hopefully with KI they can be an agent of change, but half of that responsibility is on us as a community to grow the game by nurturing newcomers and introducing it to friends/making online content about the game.

This. Which is why I hink it’s always best that we have guys who are pros at the game to actually share what knowledge they have about certain characters they main.

@BigBadAndy

That’s a lot of qualifiers!, but you’re right.

Sadly, I would be hard pressed to put a proposal together to anyone claiming that all the $$ to be made justifies investing hugely in the FGC.

But also MS and IG learned the hard way in S2 that having an open dialogue with the community during game development just means giving people ammunition to complain about. As a community, we didn’t do ourselves any favors.

This sadly was very true.

100% agreed. Some of the mewling, petulant, entitled nonsense I saw on the S2 forums was laughable at best and downright depressing at worst. I’d expect them to be a lot more careful about what they reveal and how in the future.

Man, I would LOVE to put that proposal together. If only MS corporate would give me the time…

This is true but compared to season1 it’s still not as bad. I mean we had people who claimed KI would be dead on arrivle because Orchids…“ahem” weren’t bi enough : /

I think the issue too many people forgot when IG was revealing stuff was this: IT’S NOT DONE YET TILL IT’S RELEASED! sadly people forget about it, or completley push it aside in hopes their complaints will completley influence how they want the characters to work/act.

What I find funny is this same thing happend in season1, not as frequently but it was a hell of a lot worse.
